Daily life of slaying demons in the government

Chapter 17 ends abruptly
For three consecutive days, Yang Qian followed Liu Fu, learning by doing, and finally he understood all the ins and outs of the big search.

Yang Qian even learned a lot of accounting techniques in this world from the accountant of the Judicial Department. It turned out that the difference between the open accounts and the hidden accounts was so huge, and there were so many twists and turns involved.

Finally, the items cleared out included cash, valuables, house deeds, land deeds, and even a lot of receipts for accounts receivable and uncollected by the Liu family.

If Yang Qian had to use one word to describe his feelings over the past three days, he felt that "shocking" was the most appropriate word.

Especially what was reflected in the old accounts of the Liu family, it was simply a bloody account of human lives.

He helped the bandits sell stolen goods, purchased semi-finished ironware in bulk for them, and even deliberately disclosed the information and routes of the convoys of various businesses in the city as well as their defense forces to the bandits.

The most hateful thing is the "missing persons" business.

That’s right, the Liu family has turned even the missing persons business into a business, and the target of this business is evil spirits.

In the recent transactions of missing persons, one of the following items was clearly written: obtain a top-quality fire fox skin, kill a hunter and have him eaten by the dogs that jump down the mountain, and pay off a debt of three gold coins.

Fiery fox fur, hunter. Combining these two items, Yang Qian thought that another case had been solved.

But this is just the tip of the iceberg of the blood debt owed by the Liu family.

At this time, Yang Qian felt that the Liu family deserved all the torture they had endured.

On the fourth day, Yang Qian and Liu Fu finally finished counting all the money and belongings of the Liu family, and after checking the accounts again and again, they handed them over to the accountant of the judicial department for settlement. The matter came to an end.

"Yang Qian, this one is for you." After sending away the accountant from the Judicial Department, Liu Fu took out a wooden box, half a foot square. When he handed it over, one could tell it was quite heavy.

I took the box and opened it, and saw a golden glow inside.

"Here is twenty-two gold in all. This is your share."

"Master Liu, please don't! This is different from what I said before. I dare not..."

"Alright! Just take it if I tell you to! There aren't many opportunities to raid a wealthy household, and you deserve an extra share for your contribution this time. If it weren't for you saving the day, let alone sharing the money, we would all be punished in the government office now.

So you should take what is yours, and don't push it to me. Don't forget, your father and I are old friends, and I am your elder, so how can I let you suffer a loss? Hurry and take it!"

Yang Qian wanted to say something else, saying that he would take the benefits, but this time he really took too much. If he took too much, others would take less, which would easily arouse jealousy. But Liu Fu was so confident that he could not refuse.

So Yang Qian could only bow and thank him, thinking that he would have to find supplies for Liu Fu from somewhere else in the future.

However, Liu Fu's next words made Yang Qian feel a little uncomfortable.

"Now that this case is closed, you can relax for a while and take a rest. I remember your mother is still in Yicheng, Changzhou Prefecture, right?"

"Yes, I have a younger brother who is two years younger than me."

"That's perfect, isn't it? You can take advantage of this opportunity to bring me over to serve you. You can also consider settling down in Sandao City."

Yang Qian nodded in agreement. But he also felt that it was a bit strange that Liu Fu suddenly became so enthusiastic. He could only regard it as Liu Fu's deliberate attempt to get closer to him because he had performed well this time.

However, when talking about relatives in his hometown, Yang Qian's thoughts also came to his mind.

The so-called relatives are naturally the blood relations of Yang Qian's predecessor.

The previous incarnation followed his father to work in Sandao City when he was young. Later, his father retired and passed his official status to the previous incarnation, which is why Yang Qian was directly in the officialdom after traveling through time. The previous incarnation's biological mother and younger brother were both in Yicheng, the capital of the next state. Their lives were not rich but they were still acceptable.

Although Yang Qian did not reject this inherited blood relationship, he could not agree with it from the bottom of his heart. So he had not thought much about it for the past six months.

Seeing that Yang Qian seemed to be thinking, Liu Fu smiled and reminded him, "You are in a critical position now. Move your family here, and have roots and a foundation. When the higher-ups consider you, they will think you are reliable. Otherwise, you will be free and many things will be inconvenient for you to do. Do you understand?"

Yang Qian also realized after hearing this that Liu Fu was reminding him that he would be promoted after the case was closed.

The so-called "moving home here" is to stop some people from worrying that Yang Qian has no ties and is difficult to control. Having a home here will cause concerns about many things.

Moreover, he brought his mother here and left with the word "filial piety", which is also good for the evaluation of his character.

It seems necessary both publicly and privately.

Yang Qian quickly stood up and bowed, accepting his teaching. He also knew that he had inherited the blood relationship of his predecessor, and these things could not be avoided, so he just took this opportunity to get in touch with them.

In the inherited memory, the mother at home was very kind, but the younger brother was a little restless, as if he had become a gangster?
After putting the wooden box away, Yang Qian chatted with Liu Fu for a while. After the yamen runners came to report that the Liu Mansion had been completely sealed, the two of them got up together and returned to Sandao City.

On the way back, the entire B-class and the yamen runners who participated in the group all had smiles on their faces. Their arms and waists were bulging.

It is possible to punish evil and gain benefits, big benefits at that. Who wouldn't be happy?
However, as soon as they returned to the police station, the smiles on Yang Qian and Liu Fu's faces had to disappear.

"What? Liu Chengkun is dead?!"

The news was brought to Yang Qian by Chen Dong.

Yang Qian was a little confused when he heard the news. He felt it didn't make sense. After all, it had only been a few days. Although the case had been basically investigated, there were still many things left. It was impossible for Liu Chengkun to be executed so soon.

There must be something fishy in it!

Sure enough, Chen Dong said, "The man was poisoned to death. It was the head of the prison in the government dungeon who did it."

"Where is the prison boss now?" Yang Qian didn't think the matter was over here. Because this was obviously a risky move by some people to escape, and in order to protect himself later, the prison boss must also be dealt with cleanly.

Chen Dong nodded and said, "After poisoning Liu Chengkun, the prison boss committed suicide out of fear of punishment. He left a suicide note saying that it was because of his daughter who disappeared many years ago. He felt that the Liu family had treated her like a human meat bun and stuffed her into the mouth of the evil spirit, so he wanted revenge now and poisoned Liu Chengkun to death.

And the whole family, young and old, disappeared the day before."

Yang Qian snorted coldly. Although this was consistent with his guess, it also meant that the case was suddenly at a standstill.

"Where are the other members of the Liu family?"

"Nothing unexpected happened to the others. Master Yang, do you think Song Qixun will be able to get out of this situation this time?"

Chen Dong's face was also filled with anger. He wished Song Qixun would die, because if Song Qixun died, it would be easier for him and Wang Shigui to solve the problem of losing their badges. After all, they were afraid of Song Qixun, not Song Yuan.

Yang Qian didn't know how to answer. He recalled the helpless look Liu Chengkun gave him a few days ago. It seemed that Liu Chengkun knew at that time that even if he was willing to confess everything, it would still be difficult for him to touch Song Qixun.

The result seemed to confirm Liu Chengkun's guess.
