Sir, you have to pay more

Chapter 261 Your Excellency Is the Imperial Court
"Have you all heard about the crime against Yin?"

The admiral picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, then slightly raised his eyelids and squinted at everyone.

After the crowd was silent, inconsistent voices sounded: "Listen, I heard."

"Now that I've heard it, I won't tell you any more. It's still the old saying, people are not saints, how can there be no mistakes in the world?"

The admiral put down the tea bowl, and came to the side of the criminal case with his hands behind his back, looking at the officers who dared not even raise their heads.

"It doesn't matter if you made a mistake, what matters is whether you know how to repent. If you know you have made a mistake and don't correct it, even if you are extrajudicial, the imperial court will not tolerate you!"

It sounded like thunder.

Take a pat on the cash box to show your firm attitude.

Unexpectedly, the box made of paper is not very strong, and a hole was formed in one shot.

It doesn't matter, it's just a symbol.

For things that are temporarily used, no matter people or things, the forehead doesn't care about their quality.

For example, his Admiral's Mansion, such as his Siwei Tower.

It doesn't matter if there is a hole, Lord Foreboss will make it up.

Other provinces may not know about the matter of criminal justice, but Sichuan must have spread it a long time ago. It is impossible for the people in Chongqing Town not to know about it.

If they are guilty of anything, they must be guilty.

It's nothing more than a minor crime.

Master Cao's body was still hanging from the beam above his head, the atmosphere had reached this point, he had to confess his guilt even if he was innocent, or else he would hang himself with Master Cao.

The admiral is obviously serious this time.

He doesn't take the coating of the Ministry of Internal Affairs seriously in his eyes, let alone their group.

A Dusi surnamed Zhang knew this very well, and if he didn't take money to eliminate disasters today, he would definitely not be able to pass the test. He raised his head in embarrassment: "My lord, we are willing to pay the crime money, but I came in a hurry and didn't bring any money with me." .”

"Your attitude is very good."

The admiral liked people with a good confession attitude, so he slapped his hands, and someone sent paper and pens in immediately.

More than [-] people, each with a piece of paper, a pen, and three people share an ink cartridge.

"This?"

Zhang Dusi and the others looked at each other, not knowing what the admiral meant.

"This crime payment is collected by the official on behalf of the emperor. Just write the amount on the paper, write your name on the paper, and put it in the box."

Write as much as you want.

When it's done, someone will come to your house to get the silver.

If you don't pay or don't pay enough, then the admiral is really sympathetic, but Wang Fa is ruthless!
Looking at the paper and pen handed in front of him, Zhang Dusi was still in trouble, and said bravely, "My lord, I don't know how much I have to pay for this crime?"

The admiral did not speak, but got up and walked away with his hands behind his back.

What does this mean?
The kneeling green battalion officers look at me, and I look at you?

They have heard about the crime payment, but they really don't know how much to pay and how to pay, because it has not been promoted in the whole province.

The admiral's confidant, Ma Daquan, who also served in the defense of Chongqing Town, said, "My lord means that you can do it yourself, and you can pay as much as you want."

Mr. Lin Qian, who was acquainted with Ma Shoubing, asked, "Master Ma, how much should I pay?"

That's right, everyone is also concerned about this issue, and all eyes are on Ma Shoubei's face.

"At least, the admiral must be satisfied."

Ma Shoubei coughed lightly, signaling to everyone to write quickly.

backyard.

None of the people in Cao Guoke's mansion could stand Li Zhongjun's torture, and they squatted on the ground honestly, explaining the whereabouts of Cao Guoke's stolen money.

What industries are there in the city, how many lands are there outside the city, and how many boats are there in the river.
No matter how big or small, as long as it can be sold at a price, it must be written.

Li An'an led people to settle the accounts, and the cash seized from the yamen was not much, only more than three thousand taels.However, Cao Guoke has owned properties in Chongqing, Chengdu and other places in recent years, which can be converted to about 40,000 taels.

"Record these one by one, and I will write the paper later."

Although Cao Guoke committed suicide in fear of crime, but what crime he was afraid of and what evidence proved his guilt, Jia Liu must report honestly.

After all, Cao Guoke has a brother-in-law who is the vice capital of Manchuria.

Also don't underestimate the gang of the Ministry of Internal Affairs who came out of the coating, the energy behind it is really not small.

Aunt Guilin, who is now taking over the affairs of the Jinchuan Army's previous crimes, is Ling Guifei, the biological mother of the next emperor.

Since the year of Shunzhi, there have been many royal relatives and relatives in the coating area of ​​the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The circle itself is small, and there are a lot of royal relatives and relatives. Pull out the radish and bring it out of the pit. The ghost knows whether Cao Guoke is apart from Manchuria What thighs are there outside the deputy capital.

Therefore, the evidence of the crime must be conclusive, so that people have nothing to say.

Mr. Jia has a public heart in handling affairs.

Li Zhongjun is indeed the No.1 recommended by the president, and Jia Liu is full of praise for his ability to handle affairs.Just as he was looking at the confessions of those people, Ma Shoubing came with the amount of criminal charges that the officers had subscribed.

Jia Liu took a look, his face suddenly became like a donkey.

The four ranks all pay 500 taels, and the guerrilla from the third rank only pays 800 taels. Some of them go too far with the total and thousand total, and write ten taels or 20 taels!
This is not treating the admiral as one of his own at all!

"Is this the attitude of their confession?"

Jia Liu angrily threw a stack of blank papers to Ma Daquan, "Go, tell them that the money for convicting crimes is paid to the emperor, not to the officials! Give them another chance, if they still don't know their mistakes, these people Take off the top and wear it yourself!"

Looking back, his angry face turned into a kind expression, and he told Li An'an: "That little concubine of Cao Guoke is also a pitiful person, don't make it too hard for him, wait for things, give him some money, either go home or find someone else." An honest man is married."

Li Zhongjun looked around and lowered his voice: "My lord, that concubine has a lot of admiration for my lord, and I know that following Cao Guoke has committed a lot of crimes. Do you want her to go to the lord's room to make amends at night?"

"Ok?"

Jia Liu's mind was moved, but thinking of his two pregnant wives and a young wife who was keeping a vacant house in Chengdu, he couldn't help resisting the temptation, thinking that he is not an ordinary person now, and he can no longer be as casual as before.

"I'm inconvenient, you can replace me."

Pat Li Anan on the shoulder, this is a good thing for him.

On the Qianya side, the admiral was dissatisfied, so all the officers had to rewrite it.

Since there is only one chance, no one dares to be stingy this time.

Soon, the new amount was handed over to the admiral.

Li An'an used his abacus to add up the numbers of each person, and finally concluded that 37 people paid a total of 2000 taels, with an average of less than 900 taels per person.

Jia Liu is quite satisfied with this figure, after all, he always has to leave some for others, and he can't do it to death, otherwise things will be reversed.

Ma Daquan asked these people whether they would continue to work in Chongqing Town after paying the criminal charges.

"You take people with them to get the money first. Remember, five groups, separate the people, and bring them back after the work is done. Arrange people to lock them up. They are not allowed to go out of the Yamen without my order. Wait until it's done. For things here, these people will follow me."

"What do you mean, sir?"

Ma Daquan was puzzled.

Jia Liu smiled and looked at Ma Daquan meaningfully: "If I don't get rid of these people, how can you be the deputy general of Chongqing Town?"

Hearing this, Ma Daquan was stunned for a moment, without saying a word, he knelt down and kowtowed three times to the admiral: "My lord's kindness in promoting me will never be forgotten forever, as long as my lord says a word, I will end up with swords and flames."

"Okay, get up."

Jia Liu helped Ma Dayuan get up, and warned: "Dayuan, Chongqing is the gateway to central Sichuan. It has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times. You should take good care of this gateway for the imperial court."

Ma Dayuan expressed his position without hesitation: "Don't worry, my lord, the general will definitely watch over this central Sichuan gate for my lord!"

Jia Liu corrected: "It's not for me, it's for the imperial court."

"In the heart of the general, the lord is the imperial court!"

Ma Dayuan's resolute attitude made Jia Liu very gratified, and it was not in vain for him to focus on cultivating this person.
