Chapter 520 Luo Pantou

However, what County Magistrate Xu was puzzled about was: "Why didn't Ming Shaoqing take Zou Jiang away?"

Zou Jiang is a key witness in the Zou Youlian case, and they should go to the capital together to wait for the summons.

He also asked Ming Shaoqing, but Ming Shaoqing said: "The crimes Zou Jiang accused Zou Youlian of did not involve colluding with water bandits. This matter was caused by the water bandits' desire to silence Zou Youlian after they learned that Zou Youlian was arrested. When it comes out, there are all the witnesses and physical evidence regarding this case, so there is no need for Zou Jiang to go to Beijing."

Perhaps the county magistrate is still confused. With Ming Shaoqing's cautious style, he should take Zou Jiang away.

Master Tian said: "In Zou Youlian's case, the water bandits, the prefect of Linhe Prefecture and his officials, the prefect and officials of Jinling Prefecture, and a group of accomplices served as witnesses. There is no shortage of physical evidence and confessions. It doesn't matter whether Zou Jiang goes to the capital or not. "

Is it the same? Magistrate Xu glanced at Mr. Tian, clearly showing disbelief.

Zou Jiang also came to see Ming Shaoqing off. When he heard County Magistrate Xu whispering to Master Tian, he came over and said to County Magistrate Xu: "Sir, you don't have to be confused. It was the young one who begged Shaoqing Ming to let him stay. Ming Shaoqing was considerate of the fact that he is old and suffers from old illnesses and new injuries, so it is difficult for him to travel long distances, so he did not let him follow him to Beijing."

He then asked: "Your Excellency, you are so confused. Do you want me to drag my sick body to Beijing and then die in a foreign country?"

How should County Magistrate Xu handle this?

He could only smile and say: "Mr. Jiang has misunderstood. How could I have such vicious thoughts?"

Zou Jiang laughed after hearing this and followed those who came to see Ming Shaoqing off to the county government office.

When Magistrate Xu saw him, he hurriedly asked, "Mr. Jiang is going back to Luchang County soon?"

The great revenge has been avenged, and you should return to your hometown to worship your ancestors and take good care of your life. Do you still want to continue to depend on the government office for good food and drink and let him pay for medical treatment? The yamen are not rich either.

Zou Jiang said: "The injury on my body has not healed well, so I have to live in the Yamen for a while. I hope the county magistrate will not be upset."

After saying that, he entered the Yamen leisurely, chatting and laughing with several Yamen servants next to him.

County Magistrate Xu glared at Zou Jiangs back angrily, feeling very sorry for the county governments money.

Jiang County Lieutenant saw that County Magistrate Xu didn't seem to understand what Ming Shaoqing and Zou Jiang meant, so he simply came over and told him clearly: "Your Excellency, County Magistrate, Zou Jiang is a man of great talent, bravery, strategy and loyalty. Why don't you hire him?" As a staff member, I will be promoted with you and will be of great use in the future."

Being promoted means that the things you encounter in the future will only be more cruel than now. Without the help of a capable adviser, a powerless and not very smart official like County Magistrate Xu will probably die without a complete body.

Master Tian also nodded and said, "What Jiang County Lieutenant said is very true. Your Excellency, you might as well hire Zou Jiang."

Magistrate Xu was shocked and wanted to ask them, are you crazy? He actually asked him to hire a lunatic like Zou Jiang as his staff. What Zou Jiang did was something that could be beheaded ten or eight times just for the sake of it? You don't want your life, I want my life.

Xu County Magistrate was frightened and waved his hands and said: "Let's talk about this later. I still have a lot of official business to do."

Ming Shaoqing gave him a piece of paper yesterday, which was delivered quickly by someone from Shangguange. He said that he could sell the Zou family's property in Tianfu County and make up for the money distributed to the victims.

The money distributed to the victims a few days ago was from the Yamen, and this account needs to be repaid.

The Zou family doesnt have many properties in Tianfu County. Most of them are in places like Jiangnan, Jianghuai, and Zhongzhou, and some of them are actually in Yangji Prefecture in the northeast.

Yangji Mansion is already the northern border of Da Chu. It can be seen that Zou Youlian has already thought of an escape route for the Zou family. If his evil deeds are exposed, he will flee all the way to Yangji Mansion and then leave Da Chu from Yangji Mansion. It's a pity that he did many evil things, and God didn't bless him, so his Zou family ended up in ruins.

County Magistrate Xu was a kind-hearted man. Seeing that Luo Wu and the Qin brothers had made a lot of contributions, and Gu Jinan had even hooked up with the Zheng family and followed the official family, he specially called Luo Wu and said to him: " The Zou family has some fields and shops in Qingfu Town. Find a time to go home and ask if your family wants to buy anything. If you want to buy it, prepare money and come to the county office, and I will give you a cheaper price. .

Luo Wu wanted to marry Gu Jinxiu and was thinking of buying property in the county. He asked County Magistrate Xu: "Sir, the Zou family still has some houses and shops in the county. The humble family wants to buy one or two. I wonder if it can be done." ?

"Of course it's okay. I will leave you a few shops and houses in good locations." As long as the Luo family can afford the money, Magistrate Xu doesn't care.

Luo Wu was very happy. He knew that many wealthy households in the county were eyeing these properties of the Zou family. The Xu family had already sent people here, saying that they would buy a good shop and house in the Zou family's area at a high price. The fact that the county magistrate can give him this sentence shows that he values him.

What makes Luo Wu even more happy is yet to come.

County Magistrate Xu said to County Captain Jiang: "Master Jiang, since Luo Wu is here, you don't need to hide the appointment letter, just give it to him directly."

Jiang Xianwei nodded with a smile and handed a volume of documents to Luo Wu: "Take a look."

Luo Wu had known for a long time that he would be promoted to squad leader and take over Zhu's position, so he was not surprised. He took the document calmly, but when he opened it, he was still shocked in his eyes: "Sir, this..."

This appointment document is not only stamped with the seal of the Tianfu County Government, but also stamped with the seal of the Fucheng Government Office.

Jiang Xianwei smiled and said: "Don't be surprised, you deserve this, and this is what the county magistrate meant."

Originally, the county government only needed the approval of the county magistrate and county captain to appoint a new team leader. However, County Magistrate Xu will be transferred in a few months, and the new county magistrate does not know his character and is afraid of Luo Wu, the team leader. The newly promoted ones will be replaced. Therefore, County Magistrate Xu sent this document of acceptance of fate to the Fucheng Yamen and had the Fucheng Yamen stamp it with a big seal.

As a result, even if the new county magistrate wants to remove Luowu, he has to pass through the Fucheng Yamen Pass.

Luo Wu immediately knelt down on one knee and said, "I would like to thank the county magistrate and the county captain for their troubles."

County Magistrate Xu smiled and asked Luo Wu to get up, and asked again: "You are still injured and should go home to recuperate. Now that you have been promoted to class leader, this is a great event for your family. If the family plans to hold a banquet, I can allow you to take a few days off."

In the countryside, entering a yamen and becoming a yamen servant is a great event that invites the whole village to a banquet, let alone being promoted to class leader. There are only three government officials in a county, which is quite a big official for farmers.

Luo Wu thought that Gu Jinxiu might go to Huaiyu Embroidery Village to see Grandma Li, so he shook his head and said: "I thank you for your sympathy, but the county government is still busy now. I want to take a few days off after this busy period."

In this way, he could have time to accompany Gu Jinxiu to Huaiyu Embroidery Village.

After hearing this, County Magistrate Xu was even more happy and said to Luo Wu: "Sure, you can stay busy for a while longer and wait until things in the county government stabilize, then go back to the village to celebrate."

After saying that, he waved his hand and let Luo Wu go out.

As soon as Luo Wu left the courtyard where Magistrate Xu worked, he met Zhu Bantou who was coming to kill him at the gate of the courtyard.
