Concubine

Chapter 489

Finally talking about the key issue, Yang Tashan smiled unhurriedly: "I don't dare, how can I ask for money from the official. It's just that I... I'm a bit busy, I'm afraid I don't have time to help you two. "

The thin monkey was so angry that he cursed secretly: You are so busy, if you were busy, you would still be here in broad daylight, shaking the cattail fan and accompanying the little maid to take out the soles.He thought so in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it out of his mouth. Now is the time to beg someone.

The thin monkey said with a smile on his face: "I can see that the little brother is a straightforward person, so I won't beat around the bush and tell you frankly that the magistrate promised 15 taels of silver as a reward for this matter. Official seal, the reward is 15 taels of silver for nothing. As long as you help us solve this case, the 15 taels of silver will all belong to you, brother, and we don’t want a penny. How about it?"

Yang Tashan was secretly happy, 15 taels?That's great, if you put it together, you can buy your own adobe house and have your own home. This is Yang Tashan's biggest dream now.Although he was happy in his heart, he didn't show it on his face, and said with a smile: "This... this is not very good."

The thin monkey felt a little loose when he heard Yang Tashan's words, and hurriedly said: "It should be, you helped us solve this case, you get the money, we get the credit, both sides benefit, besides, our brother can also avoid the [-] Where is the big board?"

In ancient times, to solve a case, the official master had to set a time limit for the arrester to solve the case within a time limit. This is called a "ratio limit". It takes five days for a normal case and three days for a serious case. If the time limit is overdue, it still can't be solved. Continue to call and deduct money until the case is solved or the master feels that the case cannot be solved.

Therefore, when the police can’t solve the case and really have no choice, they would rather spend money to find someone in the prison to help cover the crime. If the crime is confessed, the case will be solved. There are also ulterior motives, and they simply arrest those jobless people who have no money and no background. Refugees and even innocent people were tortured into crimes.

However, the case this time is to find the stolen official seal, so there is no way to find someone to take the blame, and the official seal can only be recovered after a real investigation.Therefore, the two detectives, Shouhou and Tuya, found Yang Tashan.

Yang Tashan said: "Since the two officials have moved their mouths, and there is another 15 taels of silver reward, I will not refuse."

The two police officers were overjoyed, stood up and bowed and said, "Thank you, little brother." From their surprise expressions, we can know how important this matter is to the two of them.

Yang Tashan hurriedly got up to return the salute, and asked the two to sit down, and said: "To detect the theft of the official seal of the magistrate, it is necessary to enter the yamen or even the inner yamen to investigate the scene, and it may be necessary to ask the magistrate or related people for investigation. Investigation and inquiry. I am an ordinary person, what should I do?"

Both Shouhou and Tuya were taken aback. They really hadn't thought about this question. They just thought that Yang Tashan would find the lost official seal as soon as he went out, and everyone was happy when the case was solved.Now after listening to Yang Tashan, I realized that this is really a problem.

Detective Tuya quickly said: "Or, let's let the little brother disguise himself as a policeman to go in and solve the problem?"

The thin monkey slapped him on the head: "You idiot, which one of the arrests in the yamen doesn't know any magistrate? He will definitely ask, can you get by?"

Rabbit Ya rubbed his head, and said again: "Why don't you ask what you want to check, little brother, tell us, let's ask and check?"

The thin monkey heard that this was an idea, and nodded: "You stupid bear finally came up with a useful idea, not bad."

Rabbit tooth is very happy.The two looked at Yang Tashan together to see what his opinion was.

Yang Tashan shook his head: "If this is the case, I can't guarantee that the case can be solved. It is impossible to entrust the investigation site, so you have to go there yourself, because you can't see the clues, so you come to me , What's the use of entrusting you to investigate?"

The two nodded, thinking that this was not a bad idea.The thin monkey asked: "Little brother, what do you think should be done?"

Yang Tashan has already thought of a way, he wants to use this case, not only to earn 15 taels of silver, but also to enter the six gates as a fast catcher.However, you can't say this yourself, it's better for them to bring it up, otherwise, they will lose money if they ask for some activity fees or something.

Yang Tashan said: "You have nothing to do, what can I do, I am not a fast arrester, I go in and out of the yamen or even the inner yamen at will, the magistrate must punish me for my crime, I don't want to be punished for no reason, otherwise, Let’s forget about this matter, I believe you can solve this case and get back the official seal of the magistrate.”

The thin monkey smiled wryly, he knew exactly how many jin taels he had, and if he had a way, he wouldn't have thrown away the 15 taels of silver to ask Yang Tashan for help.What should we do now?
Rabbit Ya said quickly: "Why don't we talk to the head catcher about special matters and ask the head catcher to tell Xing Tong how to recruit Brother Yang as a catcher first?"

The three classes of yamen servants in the yamen are all staffed according to regulations, and cannot be increased at will.When the prefect’s yamen’s catcher retires due to illness or dies in the line of duty, when there is a vacancy and needs to be replaced, the head catcher decides the candidate, and it’s enough to submit it to the general judge in charge of the patrol (Zheng Liupin) for approval. This kind of thing does not need to be reported to the magistrate.Therefore, whether you can be the arrester of the magistrate's yamen, the head arrest and the general judgment play a decisive role.

The thin monkey frowned: "This matter is not very easy to handle. Our yamen police officer has a vacant position after the old Wang retired last month, but now there are a lot of people who earn this position. My cousin This morning, he even asked me to send someone to fill the vacancy, and the price has been raised to six taels of silver, and I'm on the verge of losing my head." After finishing speaking, he glanced at Yang Tashan meaningfully.

Of course Yang Tashan knew that he wanted him to spend some money to manage relationships, not to mention that he only had two thousand copper coins now, and if he didn't have enough money to manage, even if he had, Yang Tashan would not take it. The official seal of the Grand Master is lost, that is not an ordinary case.This official seal is lost and cannot be retrieved, and it is still light to lose the official and dismissed.Therefore, the magistrate will definitely put pressure on these gangsters.They are desperate and will absolutely agree to any request of their own.

As long as you find the official seal by yourself, not to mention just entering the Yamen as a catcher, even being a head catcher is not a big problem.But Yang Tashan didn't want the price to be too high, as soon as he went to be a headhunter, it would arouse jealousy, and the responsibility of the headhunter was too great, it's better to catch it quickly and relax.

Therefore, Yang Tashan pretended not to know, and still looked at the thin monkey foolishly.

Seeing that Yang Treadshan was not going on the road, the thin monkey made it clear: "Brother Yang, if you can come up with six taels of silver, I can find a way to make you an arrest immediately, so you can enter the yamen to solve this case." Is it? When you solve the case and get back the official seal, you get 15 taels of silver in vain, deduct the six taels, and you still have nine taels! How about it?"

"Ah? Okay, isn't it just money!" Yang Tashan turned his head and asked Xing'er, blinking his eyes quietly: "Xing'er, go and get six taels of silver!"

Xing'er Bingxue was smart, and when she saw Yang Tashan's eyes, she understood immediately, and said with a bitter face: "Master, how can we still have so many?" He took out a money bag from his bosom and poured it into his hand: "Here, let's All the money is here."

Yang Tashan gave all the money to Xing'er and let her be the housekeeper.Xing'er kept most of the money in her room, and only a few dozen cash in her purse was for buying vegetables and rice.

Thin Monkey stretched his head to take a look, and saw that Xing'er's palm had at most twenty or thirty Wen.Shaking his head, he sighed: "This amount of money is not even a small change...Brother Yang should keep it for himself."

Rabbit Ya said quickly: "How about letting Brother Yang be the catcher, and after solving the case and getting the reward, he will be sentenced by the head catcher and Xing Tong?"

According to the rules, more than half of the money collected should be given to the judge who has the right to make decisions, and the rest should be given to the head arrester.As for the person who introduces him, he can only get benefits from the person who seeks this errand.

The thin monkey glanced at Yang Tashan: "That's fine, I don't know if Brother Yang is willing or not."

"I don't want to!" Yang Tashan said bluntly. Now that he has seen the other party's cards clearly, he is confident, and he doesn't let go at all. "I still want to save this money to buy a house. I always rent other people's houses. something."

The thin monkey knew that Yang Tashan had figured out his details, and it would be a waste of time for him to bargain, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! I'll pay the money, as long as you can help get the official seal back, six taels Yinzi, I... I will admit it."

Tuya said: "Brother, how do you explain to your cousin?"

"It's too late to confess! The arrester has already spoken, and the case can't be solved. If the master is dismissed, we will all have to pack up and leave! I can't protect myself, can I take care of others? Sigh~! Only Can return the money to my cousin and tell her there is no vacancy."

Tuya said: "I'm afraid, that's the only way to go."

Yang Tashan heard him say that his cousin asked him to help a man into the Yamen as an arrester, his heart moved slightly, he didn't have time to think about it, he was very happy to see that the matter was basically settled, but he said, "I also You are not a god, but you dare not guarantee that you will be able to solve this case, if you can't, what should you do?"

The thin monkey nodded: "Brother, what you said is reasonable. Let me tell the head catcher, use this case as a test for you, and if you solve the case and get back the official seal, you will be formally recruited as a catcher. If you can't solve it , you still come back and continue to be your coolie. How is it?"
