Chapter 73 Returning
It took time for Zhizhou to send people here. The county magistrate contacted a few wealthy households and borrowed a few yards to come out. The repeat offenders were first locked up in the cell, and the women, the elderly and children were locked in the yard first.

After all the interrogation is over, the judge will be judged by the higher authorities.

Jiang Xin's delay here was too long, so he set off with his people that afternoon, and walked [-] kilometers to the farthest inn he opened, which was the inn that was robbed this time.

The inn also received the news, and they had been waiting for a long time. When they saw Jiang Xin coming, they quickly put up a sign that it was full.

Of the 100 people, half of them set up tents in the yard outside. This was made of coarse cloth by Jiang Xin, two layers, although not warm, but not windproof, folded wooden beds.

Each inn has [-] sets of this set, which are often rented out to tourists when there is no room for them. Of course, mattresses and quilts are also provided, and they are all cleaned very clean.

That night, Jiang Xin checked the belongings in the boxes and confiscated 27 boxes of belongings. Jiang Xin was divided into five boxes. Half of these things were found and packed by her, so she knew roughly what was in them.

Of course, the five boxes that Jiang Xin picked out were cost-effective, not the most valuable. Some of them were jewelry and jade and some antique calligraphy and paintings, which were definitely more valuable, but Jiang Xin felt that whoever lost these things originally had someone Remember, why hold it in your hand, even if you sell it, you will be found out, it is better to get some gold and silver.

So the five boxes that Jiang Xin got were all gold and silver and the silver bills pressed at the bottom of the boxes. She found the silver bills in a hidden compartment, and there were more than 7000 taels, but they were not from the same Yintong.

After tidying up his things, he put some gold ingots and bank notes into the space, and put the rest in the box.

As for the girl who was rescued, after discussing with the county magistrate, Jiang Xin took over first. She asked the county magistrate for the record of the last case. This family is in the nearest city in Liaodong Prefecture. The girl went to see it with her grandparents. Parents were arrested in their own inn.

Jiang Xin asked the little girl, and the little girl was also willing to go home with Jiang Xin.

When the shopkeeper in the inn heard about this, he also said that the girl's family had visited seven or eight days ago to inquire about the progress of the case.

After Jiang Xin heard this, she felt relieved, as long as the family still paid attention to it, the girl would not be too sad when she went back.

It's just that two front teeth were knocked out, one side tooth was also missing, and there were scars on his face. These beasts were really inhumane.

In the evening, Jiang Xin arranged for the servant girl to take a bath for the little girl, and found a set of the smallest size of new uniforms in the store and put them on. There were lice on her head and fleas on her body. After discussing with the little girl, Jiang Xin, He simply shaved his head bald, put plant ash on his head, and killed it for a long time before cleaning it off.

After repairing, all the staff had breakfast and set off.

On this trip, one hundred and one people left, and one hundred and two people came back. Four people were injured, all of them were slightly injured, and the most serious one was cut on the arm by a knife.

Jiang Xin was very satisfied with this, and the soldiers were also very happy, because Jiang Xin told him that this mission was successfully completed. After returning, the 20 people who climbed the mountain with Jiang Xin will each share ten taels of silver, and the others will each have eight taels of silver. Add two taels of silver, and three catties of rock sugar per person.

For a while, everyone was overjoyed. It was a very comfortable job. Although the journey was a bit hard, it was also hard work in the military camp. It's comfortable, and there are people serving hot water for bathing.

Before dawn the next day, everyone got up and ate the Hu spicy soup made on the stove, and the staple food was fried oil pancakes.

After eating and drinking, all of them were on the road when the sky just turned white.

Jiang Xin and the little girl rode in a carriage, while the others rode horses. During the whole day, they ate lunch at Jiang Xin's inn at noon, and at night went to Jiang Xin's other inn to rest.

Two days later in the morning, the group got up very early, hurry up and arrive at Zhen'an City in the evening.

Jiang Xin is also eager to return home. In ancient times, unlike Jiang Xin's previous life, the road was too hard, the sky was full of dust, and every time he went to the inn to rest, even in the carriage, his body was still covered in dust. When he washed his face, the towels were dirty.

The main reason is that the road conditions are not good. This is still an official road. There are small stones and lumps along the way. Riding a horse is better. Taking a carriage, the road is bumpy, and you can lose your heart, liver and lungs.

But ride a horse, one is not good, the mouth is full of dust.

Jiang Xin simply took the carriage, the speed of the carriage was so fast, and when there was still half a day to go, Jiang Xin asked the leader of the team to take 60 people back first.

I and the remaining 40 people walk slowly.

After a simple lunch at noon, I set off. After walking for a long time, I saw a group of horsemen running towards the dust in the distance.

This is the official road. It is not uncommon to meet people along the way. Jiang Xin's motorcade gave way to the side, opened the curtain to look outside, and saw an acquaintance, and got out of the carriage involuntarily.

Immediately, the adults also saw Jiang Xin, raised their hands to stop the horses, and dismounted themselves.

The person who came was Uncle Feng, the father of his sister-in-law Feng Xiuchun, and now he is a military officer under the sixth rank. Jiang Xin hurriedly stepped forward to salute. Uncle Feng knew that Jiang Xin had something to do when he was out. The sergeant was also taken aback, but didn't ask what Jiang Xin was going to do.

Because time was also urgent, Father Feng said directly: "It is said that there is a clue about my youngest son, let me rush to Zhongwei City."

Jiang Xin frowned, isn't this the small town they went to that just caught the robbers?
Jiang Xin quickly told about their trip to Ganjiazhai this time, and about the people who helped the county magistrate to arrest the village, and told Father Feng some news that Qin Lang had investigated before.

Father Feng's expression darkened at that moment, but time was a little urgent, so he said hello and left first.

Jiang Xin looked at Feng's father who left, and always felt that this young son who had news was so suspicious.

I was four years old when I lost it, and it has been 14 years since I lost it, this year.

It's just that in ancient times there was no effective way to identify parent-child. How could it be confirmed that this child is the child of the Feng family?
After driving for a long time, everyone arrived in Zhen'an City. Jiang Xin went home first, called Qin Lang out, gave him some bank notes, and asked him to take these brothers to the bathhouse to wash up first, and then find a restaurant to have a good time. Have a meal, and then send out the money.

Qin Lang received the news that Jiang Xin was coming back the night before. He counted the time and waited. He still wanted to take these people back. Seeing that it was still early, he took them to take a bath as Jiang Xin said. After eating and sharing the money, I handed over the person, and then made a record and registration.
