Five years of county magistrate, 100 million catties of grain shocked Li Shimin

Chapter 146 My officials, you dare to move?

Then there is nothing to talk about, Fang Yuan let them leave.

Then Fang Yuan called Zhang San, and ordered him and Qi Cao to join the army to figure out the terms and interest of the bank to borrow money.

Both saving money and borrowing money have interest, but the interest of the former is definitely lower than that of the latter.

The interest of the former is to attract people to save money, and the interest of the latter is to earn their money.

On this day, Fang Yuan almost dealt with the problems left over from the seven days away.

The next day, Zhang San and the others figured out the interest plan and began to advertise to the bank.

In the early stage of the bank, it is destined that there will not be much traffic and business.

So Fang Yuan didn't need much popularity in the early stage.

On the third day, the grand opening of the bank!
However, the response is really mediocre, but there are still people saving money.

The first batch of depositors were Du Miaoyan, Ji Rufeng and the others, Zhao Qiansun's family, and Mrs. Li and others.

With the opening of the bank, Fang Yuan also encountered a problem, that is the problem of the bank's manpower.

There are too few people who study in this era, and even fewer people do accounting.

So the burden of the bank fell on Luxia again.

This was also the initial decision to wait until the bank was held before recruiting people.

Let Luxia hold on during normal times, and let Hongxu and Qingyan come over if you are busy.

The matter of the bank will be implemented in this way for the time being.

But Fang Yuan did not expect that the murder happened on the night when the bank opened.

It was none other than the three security guards who were guarding the bank at night.

Strangely, none of the Qianzhuang's money was lost.

"Any guesses?"

In Fang Mansion, Fang Yuan stared at the three corpses on the ground, his expression was ugly.

After being in charge of Liaozhou for so long, except for the night when he lived in the backyard of the governor's mansion, one of his own people died, and he never did the rest of the time.

But I never thought that on the night when the bank opened, three security guards were massacred.

"Zhou Zun, it may be the work of a master!"

"Looking at the sword wounds on their bodies, the moves are fatal. The security guards don't seem to have resisted much."

Zheng Jiu inspected the body and initially believed that it was done by a master.

"A master who doesn't need money but kills?"

"Have these three security guards had any grievances with anyone?"

Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.

"No, they are all innocent."

Lai Yingzhe said firmly.

He personally selected these security guards.

Only those who know their backgrounds can guard important banks.

"So exclusion is vendetta?"

Fang Yuan's expression turned ugly.

The bank's money was not lost, and they had no grievances with anyone.

What was it that killed him?

"Zhou Zun, there have been many rangers in the city recently!"

Zheng Jiu's eyes turned cold suddenly, and he said in a deep voice.

"Then start with them and investigate the truth!"

Fang Yuan's eyes turned cold, he said in a deep voice.

Speaking of You Xia, he thought of the ink of Deng Ling's family that the giant had mentioned to him before.

Now Juzi doesn't know where he has gone because of his personal affairs, so he is still quite worried.

"Yes."

Zheng Jiugong said yes.

"Lai Yingzhe, give death pensions to the families of the three of them, and they will be buried in three days. You must find out the truth within three days!"

"Remember, block the news."

Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.

Whoever dares to break ground on Tai Sui's head will seek death!
"Yes!"

Both Zheng Jiu and Lai Yingzhe should agree.

"Go back!"

Fang Yuan leaned back on the stool, frowning tightly.

"What about the corpse?"

Lai Yingzhe looked at the corpse on the ground and asked.

Fang Yuan told him to be buried in three days, so how to arrange the corpse during this time?

"Place the state capital first, let Wu do an autopsy tomorrow, and I will invite some people to see if they can find anything."

Fang Yuan pondered for a moment, said in a deep voice.

There is no monitoring in this era, and many cases can only be found based on experience.

So tomorrow Fang Yuan is going to let Du Miaoyan, Xue Bowu and others go and see if they can find any clues.

The ranger in the city is just one of the objects to be searched, and more accurate locking is needed.

"Yes."

Zheng Jiu and Lai Yingzhe should be.

Carry the body that was carried from the Qianzhuang to Fang's mansion to the governor's mansion.

After they left, Fang Yuan sat on the stool for a long time without blinking.

The war between Tang and East Turks started, and the aristocratic families close to East Turks began to relocate, and three security guards died suddenly on my side.

There is a feeling of precarity!
The night is deeper.

In a courtyard of Fangfu.

Li Danqiu, who was dressed in night clothes, walked briskly into the yard.

Just as she was about to enter her room lightly, suddenly the hairs all over her body stood on end.

She stepped aside in horror and looked across the room warily.

After seeing the situation clearly, she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mother, you scared me to death."

Li Danqiu patted his small chest and walked towards Mrs. Li.

It turned out that the door of the room next to her was open, and Mrs. Li was standing at the door.

Because the night was dark and he wanted to hide in his room quickly, Li Danqiu didn't see clearly.

"You girl, what are you doing running around in the middle of the night?"

Mrs. Li pinched Li Danqiu's ear with one hand, pulled her into her room, and closed the door behind her back.

"It hurts, mother, my ear hurts."

Li Danqiu repeatedly cried out in pain, feeling like his ears were about to fall off.

"What are you going for?"

Mrs. Li ignored her, but raised it even harder.

"I'm going to the toilet."

Li Danqiu was in so much pain that he was about to cry, he tiptoed his feet so that his ears would not hurt so much.

"nonsense!"

“The room obviously has a toilet!”

"If you don't say anything else, mother will spank your ass!"

Mrs. Li didn't believe Li Danqiu's words at all.

She said the same thing when she was caught sneaking out at night before.

At that time, there was no separate toilet in the room, so Mrs. Li let her go with suspicion.

But the rooms in Fangfu are different, and there is a separate toilet, so it is impossible to go to the toilet in the middle of the night.

And based on her understanding of her daughter, she must be doing something that she feels intuitively accurate at this time.

"I said, I said, I'm going to the nine-story Star Observatory."

Li Danqiu quickly recruited.

Inform Mrs. Li of the situation at [-].

"You damn girl!"

"I just said why do you want to live in Fangfu, it turns out that you are staring at the nine-story observatory building!"

"I warn you, don't sneak around in the future, if I find out, I will smash your ass!"

Mrs. Li was furious.

I can't wait to teach Li Danqiu a lesson.

Fang Yuan kindly entertained himself and the others, but she was fine, staring at his things.

"I don't dare, I really don't dare, mother, please let me go, my ears are about to fall off."

Li Danqiu quickly said that he didn't dare, with a crying tone.

Mrs. Li felt a little heartbroken after pinching Li Danqiu's ear for so long, so she let her go.

It's just this daughter, she really doesn't know how to teach, she always says that her intuition is very accurate, and then sneaks around.

Ugh.
"Do you know what happened to Fangfu just now?"

Mrs. Li sighed heavily in her heart.

Then sit down, pour a glass of water and drink slowly.

"Three security guards died at the Qianzhuang, and it was preliminarily judged to be the work of a master."

Li Danqiu replied truthfully.

She failed again tonight and failed to climb the ninth floor of the Star Observatory.

On the way back, I happened to see Fang Yuan and Lai Yingzhe, so I eavesdropped for a while.

"What masters do."

"Tomorrow, you will accompany your mother-in-law to see it."

Mrs. Li murmured, with a thoughtful look on her face.

"what?"

"What's so good about a dead body?"

Li Danqiu immediately resisted.

What's so interesting about a dead body? If you have time, it's better to study how to get to the nine-story star observatory.

"Mother has some experience in the world, go and see if you can find any clues."

"We live in Fang Yuan's place, food and food are his's, if we encounter problems, we can help, understand?"

Mrs. Li glared at Li Danqiu, and taught seriously.

"Oh, I see."

Li Danqiu snorted, wondering if he listened.

Mrs. Li also knew about her daughter's situation, so she rolled her eyes and sent her back to sleep.

The next day.

The people in Liaozhou City don't seem to know what happened in the bank.

Fang Yuan did not announce it, and invited Du Miaoyan and others to check.

During breakfast, Madam Li requested, Fang Yuan also brought them along.

"Zhou Zhou, the deceased was not poisoned, he was killed in a fight."

"Everyone has three sword wounds on their bodies, one on the neck, one on the chest, and one on the thigh, and the places are almost the same."

Wu Zuo handed over the inspection report to Fang Yuan.

This is the preliminary inspection report, and if the autopsy is to be performed, the family members agree.

"It was done by a master."

"Others I can't guess."

Du Miaoyan spoke first.

She is strong in martial arts, but she doesn't belong to any strength.

Since he was young, he has been well-clothed and well-fed, and he has never been through the rivers and lakes. These experiences are very little.

"I don't know anything."

Xue Bowu shook his head directly and said.

"I seem to have seen related records."

"But I saw it in the study of the Xue family in Fenyin, and I forgot it for a long time."

Xue Jiaoyan looked at the corpse seriously, and said uncertainly.

"Is there a record?!"

Fang Yuan frowned.

So, the murderer is not an ordinary person, but some long-established Jianghu sect?

"It's the ink of Deng Ling's family."

There was a sudden exclamation from the crowd.

Fang Yuan was slightly surprised, because the voice seemed a little strange.

Looking for the sound, he found that it was Mrs. Li who spoke.

Du Miaoyan and the others also looked at Mrs. Li curiously.

"What are you looking at? Are you curious?"

"My mother walked the rivers and lakes a few years ago!"

Seeing that everyone was looking over, Li Danqiu said proudly.

Many of her martial arts were learned from her mother.

"Madam Li said, are those rangers?"

Fang Yuan asked for advice.

At the same time, I also sigh.

From the outside, Mrs. Li looks weak and looks like she wants to protect her.

However, I never thought that such a woman would walk the rivers and lakes in her early years.

It is true that one cannot be deceived by her delicate and weak appearance.

"It's not a ranger, it's the ink of the real Deng Ling family!"

"One of the three major branches of Mohism, have you heard of it?"

Mrs. Li murmured, her eyes were full of reminiscence, and there seemed to be a trace of fear hidden.

"I've heard of it, how did you find out?"

Fang Yuan nodded solemnly, said in a deep voice.

He had heard about the three major branches of Mohism from the giant.

Now the ink of Deng Ling's family and the ranger are mixed together, it is difficult to distinguish.

"Judging from the three corpses, they all died in a frontal fight, which shows that there is no sneak attack."

"This is very similar to Deng Ling's Mo who thinks he is a chivalrous man and acts upright and aboveboard."

"And the most important point is that Deng Ling's Mo has a sword-drawing technique, and the result of the sword-drawing technique is these three sword wounds."

"Look, the wounds of the three of them are almost the same size and depth."

Mrs. Li looked at the corpse with a solemn expression.

"Is there a way to find them?"

Fang Yuan carefully observed the corpse, it was really similar to what Mrs. Li said.

The three sword wounds were indeed almost the same size and almost the same depth.

"They're about the same as rangers, but more erratic."

"However, I heard that the real Deng Ling's Mo will wear something engraved with ink on his body, and he can search his whole body when investigating the ranger."

Mrs. Li pondered for a moment, and said seriously.

"Did you hear that?"

Fang Yuan looked at Zheng Jiudao at the side.

"I heard, this subordinate will do it now!"

Zheng Jiu immediately agreed.

"and many more!"

"Check carefully, so as not to be known by them."

"The rumor I mentioned just now, few people in the rivers and lakes know about it."

Mrs. Li suddenly called Zheng Jiu to stop, and exhorted.

"Yes!"

Zheng Jiu glanced at Fang Yuan, and said yes respectfully.

"Mrs. Li, thank you for providing the clues!"

Fang Yuan thanked Madam Li.

I really didn't expect that Mrs. Li knew so much.

"You're welcome, I hope Governor Fang catches the real culprit as soon as possible."

"Danqiu, Siwen, let's go back."

Mrs. Li returned the salute with soft judo.

"Mother, you are so powerful, how do you know?"

Li Danqiu took Mrs. Li's hand and finally couldn't help asking when he walked to the gate of the governor's mansion.

But at this time Fang Yuan and the others could no longer hear the words of their mother and daughter.

"Fang Yuan, that Mrs. Li feels terrible."

Xue Jiaoyan suddenly said something.

"how do I say this?"

Fang Yuan asked curiously.

Although he felt that Mrs. Li was not simple.

But it has nothing to do with being scary, right?
"Last night when she walked behind me, I didn't even feel her coming, as if there was no sound when walking."

Xue Jiaoyan said in a low voice.

"Why didn't you notice?"

Fang Yuan glanced at Du Miaoyan, smiled lightly.

At present, Du Miaoyan is the best martial artist among so many people he knows.

Even Du Miaoyan, as long as he listens carefully, he can still hear the sound when he is one or two meters away from him.

Of course, the kind of special light footsteps are not counted, it is the case of normal walking.

"I didn't do anything at the time, how could I not pay attention?"

"In short, I feel that she is scary, and sometimes her eyes are scary."

Xue Jiaoyan said angrily.

"That's right."

"It's not a long-term stay anyway."

Fang Yuan shook his head and said.

Are they all the same?

Mrs. Li is just passing by and doesn't need much attention.

"Oh, it seems so."

Xue Jiaoyan thought for a while, and didn't say any more.

Saying that, he took Xue Bowu away and went shopping.

"Miaoyan, you should also help keep an eye on those rangers."

Fang Yuan pondered for a moment, please Du Miaoyan said.

Now the rangers in Liaozhou City have the ink of Deng Ling's family, and the giant just doesn't know where to go.

Thinking of the orthodox dispute of the Mo School mentioned by the Juzi last time, Fang Yuan was a little worried about the Juzi's safety.

"Don't worry, I will pay attention."

"But I also think that Mrs. Li is a little different, so be careful."

Du Miaoyan said solemnly.

"You also think that Mrs. Li is different?"

Fang Yuan became even more curious.

Xue Jiaoyan said that Fang Yuan didn't think so.

But someone like Du Miaoyan also reminded Fang Yuan, which shocked Fang Yuan.

"Although I have never traveled in the rivers and lakes, I have read a lot of books and read a lot of anecdotes in the rivers and lakes."

"But I didn't see the relevant records, and she, a woman, even discovered the problem of the depth and size of the wound."

Du Miaoyan said in a deep voice.

"Okay, I see."

Fang Yuan nodded, solemnly said.

"That's good."

Du Miaoyan left.

Although Mrs. Li is different, she is also Li Ji's wife.

As long as this is the case, there is no need to worry about hurting Fang Yuan.

For this point, Fang Yuan also felt the same.

Who doesn't have some secrets?
Mrs. Li is not simple, that is Mrs. Li's business.

On this day, the state officials searched many rangers, but none of them were related to the murder case, and they did not find Deng Ling's ink, Fang Yuan was so busy that he returned home very late.

As soon as he stepped into the door, Zhou Shi hurried over.

Fang Yuan thought that he was looking for the resources he wanted for research.

But before the words were asked, Zhou Shi had already opened his mouth.

"Master, my master is in trouble!"

Zhou Shi said in a panic.

"where?!"

Fang Yuan panicked and said in shock.

There is no news of Juzi's departure for many days, and it will be difficult as soon as there is news?

"No, I don't know."

Zhou Shi was so anxious that he almost cried.

Reaching out to Fang Yuan, there is a note on it.

【Serve Fang Yuan well, the position of giant is yours now. 】

"Hey, where's the messenger?!"

Fang Yuan was shocked, his eyes widened.

It was Juzi's handwriting, and there was blood on the note.

Judging from this letter, this is not only a distress, but also a last word.

Damn, whoever dares to touch Lao Tzu's people, they are courting death!

"No, I don't know."

"The doorman sent it to me. I was going to ask him."

Zhou Shi burst into tears, and only then remembered the key question.

Fang Yuan's pupils shrank, and he walked towards the door.

"It's a middle-aged man in yellow clothes with a mole on the right side of his face!"

The guard quickly reported.

"Assemble! Everyone in Fangfu gather!"

"Go to the Governor's Mansion to send a letter to mobilize all the state officials to investigate the middle-aged man in yellow clothes with a mole on his right cheek!"

"Mobilize all the security guards, everyone put down their work, and check the middle-aged man in yellow with a mole on his right cheek!"

Fang Yuan roared.

Pull Xue Bowu and leave.

Suddenly, the whole Fangfu moved.

Fangfu guards, all members of the Mohist Research Institute, etc. are all mobilized.

"Mother, do we need help?"

Li Danqiu looked towards the nine-story star observatory, and was reluctant to help.

"It doesn't matter if you go or not."

"But if you stare there at this time, you will really offend Fang Yuan."

Mrs. Li's face was cold, and she said in a deep voice.

She stepped forward, followed Fang Yuan's order, and also helped to find it.

"Then, let's help."

Li Danqiu said in a low voice.

also followed.

Soon, the entire city of Liaozhou was a sensation.

The state officials, the security team, the Fangfu government, and the soldiers of the royal firm were all dispatched.

The whole city of Liaozhou seemed to light up, and the aristocratic family was startled thinking that something had happened.

In order to find the target person, Fang Yuan ordered door-to-door inquiries.

Finally, after an hour, a similar commoner was found.

"Did you send a letter to Fangfu?"

Fang Yuan's voice was low and he almost drank it.

This is just an ordinary citizen with household registration in Liaozhou city.

Not a ranger, nor a member of the Deng Ling family, just an ordinary person.

"Yes, it's a villain."

"Zhou Zun, the villain doesn't know anything, doesn't know anything."

The middle-aged man with a mole on his right cheek was so frightened that his legs were weak and he was trembling.

"Where is the person who sent you the letter?"

Fang Yuan hurriedly asked.

"No, I don't know."

"He wrote me the letter and left."

The middle-aged man with a mole on his right cheek said tremblingly.

"What does that person look like?"

"Is it an old man, with a long beard and sunken faces?"

Fang Yuan's heart ached, unexpectedly there was no result he wanted.

He wanted to know if the giant sent the letter, and if he was in Liaozhou city.

"Yes Yes."

The middle-aged man with a mole on his right cheek nodded repeatedly.

Surrounded by so many people, he panicked to death.

"Is there any other information?"

Fang Yuan asked.

It's Juzi, and Juzi is still in the city.

Damn, if I had known earlier, I would have searched for his traces.

This bastard old boy, is there any private matter that you can't tell yourself?
"He, he, his clothes are ragged, like those beggars in the south of the city."

The middle-aged man with a mole on his right cheek squeaked and thought for a long time before he said this.

"Those beggars in the south of the city?"

Fang Yuan frowned, not knowing this information for a while.

"Zhou Zhou, there is a refugee area in the south of the city, where is the place where beggars in the city live."

Zhang San reported in a low voice.

Everywhere, there will be good and bad places.

A good place is the east of the city, where Fang Yuan and other rich and powerful people live.

The bad place is the south of the city, where many beggars live.

Fang Yuan also probably knew the problems there, but there was no way to solve those problems for the time being.

So he chose to avoid it, and the people below didn't report it, so Fang Yuan didn't remember the refugee area in the south of the city very much.

"Surround the refugee area in the south of the city, and no one is allowed to enter or leave!"

Fang Yuan remembered, and immediately ordered.

The crowd diverted and hurried towards the south of the city.

"Take him with you, comfort him, and then ask if there is any news."

Fang Yuan pointed to the middle-aged man with a mole on his right cheek and said.

Someone at the scene immediately responded, and brought the middle-aged man with the mole on his right cheek with him.

Not long after, Fang Yuan led more than 900 people to surround all the entrances and exits of the refugee area in the south of the city.

"The state government handles the case, and everyone cooperates with the investigation!"

"Entry and exit are not allowed, but anyone who invades will be killed on the spot!"

Fang Yuan gave an order and roared.

Du Miaoyan and others listened, knowing that Fang Yuan was in a hurry.

Not daring to be negligent, I walked into the refugee area with a torch.

The Obscurity Zone stinks.

The arrival of Fang Yuan and others alarmed the refugees here.

Everyone was shocked, thinking that the state government came to drive them away.

In many places, state and county towns do not allow refugees to appear.

It is very rare for Liaozhou City to allow refugees to exist.

"Listen well, my official Liaozhou Inspector Fang Yuan is not driving you away, but investigating a person."

"A little old man with a long beard, white hair, and sunken cheeks on both sides, a big reward for clues!"

Fang Yuan said loudly.

And ordered Zheng Jiu and others to publicize it.

The refugee area is huge and there are estimated to be thousands of people here.

Here are all rough tents set up, prone to fire.

"I, I have."

In the darkness, suddenly there was a childish voice.

"Lead the way!"

Fang Yuan was very excited, and immediately asked that person to lead the way.

In the end, going round and round, Fang Yuan and others entered the depths of the refugee area.

It's dank, filthy, and stinking, and it's almost impossible to step on poop.

In the end, Fang Yuan saw the blood-stained giant lying on the ground, with rats crawling on his body, he didn't know if he was alive or dead.
