No, gentlemen also guard against

Chapter 51 is over!
"Investigate! We must strictly investigate! Our Longcheng County is by no means a place outside the law!"

Ouyang Rong slapped the Nanmu Gongan table with a "bang bang".

The eyelids of grain merchants such as Wang Caozhi and Ma shopkeeper jumped up following the pen holder on the table.

It is a familiar place again.

Another familiar face.

It was the familiar tone again.

But it is a bit expensive table.

But a certain young county magistrate was actually holding a gavel under his sleeve to pat it, otherwise his palm would not be able to pat this kind of nanmu table.He found that this thing is quite easy to use, no wonder the county magistrate who often watched movies and TV dramas filmed this before, it is indeed a magic tool for decompression.

"It's simply unreasonable. In our Dragon City, is there still a king's law for publicly burning ships? Is there still a law?"

Ouyang Rong raised his hand violently, and was about to slap the table down. All the grain merchants in the hall subconsciously leaned back slightly, but this time after waiting for a long time, there was no expected sound.

At a glance, the young county magistrate raised his right hand high, put it back lightly, and turned his head to ask the blue-clothed policeman... This wave of top-notch swaying.

"Captain Yan, are there any casualties this time?"

"Reporting to the Ming Dynasty, only two boatmen suffered minor burns. The others were all familiar with water and jumped out of the boat in time to escape. Fortunately, the tank boat was not far away, and our people rushed there early, so there were no other casualties."

"That's good. It's a blessing in misfortune. It's good that people are fine."

"My lord, but my food is gone!" It's better to be busy.

The horse shopkeeper gritted his teeth and clutched the rosary, his heart was bleeding.

Wang Caozhi and others saw that the rosary beads in his hand were all broken, but they didn't feel much empathy, and instead hid a little schadenfreude on their faces.

"Horse shopkeeper, please be safe and don't be impatient." Ouyang Rong gave a sigh of relief, and then quickly asked the blue-clothed policeman, "The two tank boats burned at the same time. It is too coincidental to say that it is a coincidence. Can you find out who set the fire?"

"The rescued boatmen all said that they didn't see how the boat caught fire. The fire first spread from the grain storage warehouse. Later, they found that the fire could not be put out, so they abandoned the boat and jumped into the river..."

The horse shopkeeper interjected through gnashing of teeth: "I don't even try to save the fire, I only know how to run, they are all white-eyed wolves!"

Wang Caozhi sighed, and said something fair: "Master Ma, maybe they did their best. After all, whoever puts it in such an environment will be panicked if the boat catches fire..." After a pause, he seemed to think of something, and added: "Besides, I didn't eat any food."

"Do your best ass!"

Shopkeeper Ma stood up abruptly, the rosary in his hand was scattered all over the floor, his face full of indignation:

"Not even a single person died, how dare you say that they tried their best?! The people from both boats ran back, but I ran out of food. There must be something tricky, something tricky!
With red eyes, he looked up and said: "Master County Magistrate, you have to make decisions for the grassroots! You must investigate thoroughly."

Ouyang Rong raised his hand and pressed it falsely, saying seriously, "Don't worry, shopkeeper horse."

He turned his head and said to Yan Liulang: "The ability to set fire to burn food without anyone noticing, either there is an inner ghost among the boatmen, or...someone with excellent water skills took advantage of the night to touch the boat to do it."

"Maybe it's because of an inner ghost!" Shopkeeper Ma interrupted.

Ouyang Rong glanced at him and nodded, "Well, it is indeed possible. Both aspects have to be investigated, Yan Butou, this matter is related to the shipping safety of our Butterfly Creek, and must be dealt with specially!"

"Here!"

Yan Liulang bowed his hands as usual, but just as he retreated, there was a sudden murmur from the county government compound outside. Soon, Yan Liulang returned to the county government hall with a distraught old merchant with a goatee.

It is shopkeeper Li who is absent today.

Wang Caozhi and the small grain merchants beside him looked around curiously.

In the past two days, Shopkeeper Ma and Shopkeeper Li took the lead in checking the grain reserves. Both of them were busy transporting grain, and they had no contact with their colleagues, and they had nothing to do with each other. You fight over me.

The horse shopkeeper was the first to be inspected in a dock warehouse, and he couldn't wait to load the ship yesterday evening.

Shopkeeper Li was only cleared last night of a warehouse that stored more than [-] shi of grain. However, Shopkeeper Li seemed to have heard about what happened to Shopkeeper Ma and learned his lesson. Transported by land, and personally supervised the escort...

"Shopkeeper Erli, didn't you take people out of the city to transport food? Why do you look like this..."

Wang Caozhi looked at the goatee old businessman whose hat was gone, and asked cautiously.

Shopkeeper Li's beard was disheveled, his eyes were in a trance, his mouth seemed to be whispering, and he ignored Wang Caozhi.

He was led into the lobby by Yan Liulang. If the latter hadn't reminded him to "watch out for the threshold", he would have almost tripped over the one-step-high threshold at the gate.

The young county magistrate in the hall raised his eyebrows and looked at Li's distressed appearance, and couldn't help asking the secretary next to him in a low voice: "There should be no one stealing the sewer stone cover in our county town... Road safety must be taken care of."

"..." The clerk.

"...all robbers...all robbers...all robbers..."

When he came to the hall, shopkeeper Li murmured sadly.

Ouyang Rong cleared his throat, wondering: "Shopkeeper Li, did you... fell into the well?"

Shopkeeper Li opened his mouth and remained silent. Seeing this, the steward following behind him cried out with lingering fear on his face:

"Master of the county, the shopkeeper took us to hire a group of porters in the morning, and we went out of the city together with food, but when we passed the field on the outskirts of the city, the refugees and refugees in the shacks on both sides of the road suddenly swarmed up like hungry wild dogs. Same, all the food in our car was stripped, hundreds of bags of high-quality rice were snatched by these untouchables, what a crime!"

"Bandits...all of them are robbers..." Shopkeeper Li knelt down with a thump, sobbing: "Master Qingtian, you have to make decisions for the grassroots!"

Ouyang Rongteng jumped up from the chair.

bang bang bang!The whole hall was shocked.

"Tricksters, really tricksters! In broad daylight, grabbing food in the open! The road security in our Longcheng County has deteriorated to such an extent!"

The young magistrate was heartbroken:

"These gangsters in the disaster camp on the outskirts of the city have eaten their hearts and leopards. Who gave them the guts to rob them? It's not that the official didn't send them rice. They also gave each of them half a rice dumpling during the Dragon Boat Festival. Why should they grab it?

"Don't you know that even the rice dumplings were brought to Longcheng by all the virtuous shopkeepers? What's the matter with the price? If there were no gentlemen, they would eat rice dumplings at the Dragon Boat Festival. It's fine if they don't show gratitude, but they dare to retaliate Benefactor!"

The young county magistrate seemed to be furious, he threw down the gavel, lifted the hem of his clothes, and was about to rush out of the county government hall with his sleeves thrown up, to scold the thugs who don't know how to move.

This impassioned speech stunned shopkeepers Li and Ma who were complaining, and Wang Caozhi and others who were eating melons were even more stunned.

"Calm down Mingfu! Calm down Mingfu!" Fortunately, Yan Liulang, secretary Xiaoli and others tried their best to stop them.

"Let me calm down? How can I calm down?" Ouyang Rong said righteously, "Shopkeeper Ma, shopkeeper Li has suffered such great injustice, and the people under his rule are so ignorant of kindness, how can you let me calm down!"

Yan Liulang said with a bitter face: "No matter what it is, just let the lowly officials do it. How can you let Mingfu come in person? You are the magistrate of a county. If something goes wrong, the sky will collapse."

"That's fine, you check it out, check it out, check it out thoroughly!"

Ouyang Rong pointed to Shopkeeper Ma and Shopkeeper Li with the fingers under his sleeve, and set the tone with a straight face:
"Put down what's at hand first, and send out all the people. First go to the disaster relief camp in the outskirts of the city to recover the rice, and then go to investigate the burned tank boat. We must give justice to the two shopkeepers!"

Shopkeeper Ma and Shopkeeper Li looked at the young county magistrate, and couldn't help being a little moved.Really can't fault it.

"Subordinates obey!"

Yan Liulang was about to go out after receiving the order. Shopkeeper Ma hesitated for a while, and hurriedly shouted:
"Wait for Yan to catch the head, you go to investigate the case, how about counting the food?"

Yan Liulang said casually: "Of course, let's let it go first, the business is important, brothers have to go and seek justice for the two of you!"

The shopkeeper Ma hesitated to speak.

Shopkeeper Li's mouth was a little dry, and he couldn't help saying: "Master Catcher, counting the food is also a business."

Yan Liulang frowned, held the knife in his arms, tilted his head and asked:
"Then what should we do? These two tasks are heavy workloads, and our small county government is not manned enough to do them together. Originally, my brothers and I often patrolled the disaster relief camps in the outskirts of the city. In the past, the law and order were always good. You were a little lax in inspecting the granary, and in the end, such a bad thing happened in a blink of an eye, which angered the Ming government..."

"This..." Shopkeeper Ma and Shopkeeper Li hesitated.

Yan Liulang sighed: "Then why don't you continue to check the granaries for you? Yes, the two shopkeepers have tens of thousands of shi in storage at the wharf. It's nothing to be burned or robbed for two thousand shi. It's a trivial matter."

"No, no." Shopkeeper Ma waved his hands anxiously and said, "This time I was burned [-] stones, what if next time [-] stones are burned, Lord Yan catcher must quickly catch the real culprit and find out the truth, this is a big deal!"

Shopkeeper Li nodded fiercely as if making medicine, his face hurting: "The food that was robbed by those poor ghosts must be recovered quickly, and... we must also find out the truth! The old man suspects that some of these thieves ordered the first robbery, and the catcher must catch it!" Otherwise, who would dare to transport grain out of the city?"

Yan Liulang was speechless, and spread his hands: "Then tell me, what should our arresting squad do first?"

Shopkeeper Ma whispered: "If you don't mind it, let's divide it into two groups and take care of all of them..."

The headhunter in blue didn't speak, but his attitude was already evident from the expressionless expression on his face while holding the knife and staring at the horse shopkeeper.

Shopkeeper Ma and Shopkeeper Li have a guilty conscience.

Yan Liulang suddenly nodded:

"Okay, if you divide it, divide it. Although the brothers in the fast-moving squad are used to acting together, who will let the two shopkeepers be the masters? If you divide them into two batches, you will divide them. I didn’t get it back...don’t blame me and my brothers again, my lords. There’s also the check of the food, it’s probably slower, you two lords will take care of it..."

"Okay!" The young county magistrate who returned to the front and sat down and rubbed his forehead suddenly interrupted softly: "Okay, what are you talking about?"

Ouyang Rong shook his head, turned to Shopkeeper Ma and Shopkeeper Li, frowning and said:
"You two, I know that you are in a hurry, but the safety of Longcheng is more important than counting the granaries. If you can tell the difference, let Detective Yan hurry up and investigate the case with all their strength. Check the granaries and do it later."

He made a decision directly.

Shopkeeper Ma and Shopkeeper Li hesitated, not knowing how to refute, and they were in a dilemma.

Why does it feel like the situation is still standing still, and the gate of storing food and transporting it out of Dragon City is closed tightly with a bang...

These two big grain merchants couldn't help turning their heads to look at Wang Caozhi and other colleagues and merchants, trying to connect with them to put pressure on the county government again.

However, Wang Caozhi and the group of small grain merchants remained motionless in the face of the two people's eyes asking for help. Like clay bodhisattvas in the temple, they either turned their eyes away or turned a blind eye.

Shopkeeper Ma and Shopkeeper Li's mood suddenly plummeted...

People are scattered.

Not long after, the yacha yelled "retreat".

No matter how unwilling they were, everyone in the lobby had no choice but to disperse one after another.

Wang Caozhi was at the end of the grain merchants who had left the county office. Before going out, he couldn't help but turn his head. On the high hall, the "cheap brother-in-law" patted the wide cuffs with ease, turned around calmly and went to the back hall.

The short young man frowned, his face thoughtful.

……

By the courtyard in the back hall, Xie Lingjiang was feeding the fish with his head down again.

Ouyang Rong walked away with his hands behind his back.

"Aren't you busy?" She asked curiously.

"Master Wei must be absent..." He nodded. "It has ended."

The young county magistrate smiled again, and turned around first: "Let's go, I said to take you to a place, before it closes down, hurry up and have a look."

Xie Lingjiang was stunned.

　It's finally over, good news and bad news.The good news is that the brothers are too fierce. The first order exceeded expectations. Although it is not as good as the big guys, it made Xiao Xiao burst into tears; the bad news is... cough cough
