Chapter 3 Strange Reasoning
There was no movement in the back room, and Chu Nanzhi then ordered the two to continue telling the details of the whole case.
The two of them will talk about it carefully this time, without missing anything.
This time I gained a lot of details. In addition to knowing a few more people who have been in contact with the tax bank, she can already fully conclude that the tax bank is indeed under the noses of these people from the **** to the loss, and there will be no more doubts. .
Seeing off the two of them, Chu Nanzhi sat down on the stool with a melancholy expression and was dazed.
"Gold is real gold, but it turns into stone under the eyes of people. Is there really magic in this world?"
Chu Nanzhi frowned in disbelief, stretched out her hand to calm her dantian, and then she was lucky.
But after trying several times in a row, his face turned red, but his eyes were still empty.
She heard that many traversers have cheats such as space and system to help the protagonist. In theory, she should also have it.
system?
space?
"Prajna Paramita."
She silently summoned several times in her heart.
The air was still silent, only the slight sound of breathing could be heard from the inner room.
Grandma has a leg, the system and space ignore her.
I have solved so many big crimes for the country and the people in my previous life, but I can't accumulate this kind of character?
Chu Nanzhi had no choice but to give up this idea, and continued to deliberate on the case.
The 20,000 taels of gold was exchanged by the county government for people to find rich gentry from various places. Lin Jinxiao and his colleagues checked it carefully, and there was absolutely no problem.
One tael of gold and ten taels of silver, it can be seen that gold is still a rare thing in this dynasty.
Luyan Port is located in the eastern part of the Dahe Empire, with well-developed trade routes and many wealthy households. The county magistrate asked people to exchange all the tax and silver handed over from various places into gold bars, which are easy to **** and can make people look good. There is nothing suspicious about this.
However, according to the previous two, the pirates robbed the silver car and were fighting with them, but suddenly withdrew. Why?
"The sea bandits came from far away from the sea, trekking through mountains and rivers, since they are seeking money, they will definitely not give up halfway."
"And if the pirates are really looking for money, they should prepare carefully in advance. They will have a rough estimate of the strength of the enemy and us, so they won't be so hasty."
Chu Nanzhi said a few words to himself, and then said: "Perhaps they did come prepared, because..."
Because, they will be enchanted.
Thinking about this, Chu Nanzhi couldn't help pinching her palm.
It seems that I was also subconsciously misled by those people.
If you put aside the magic, this should be a man-made event that has been carefully planned long ago.
"If it is a man-made event, it will inevitably leave a loophole."
"Sea bandits must have another purpose if they rob and don't take it."
Yes, what purpose can there be?
Chu Nanzhi pursed her lips tightly and blinked blankly.
"Could it be for Lin Jinxiao to discover that what they transported is not gold, but stones?"
Then why did the gold suddenly turn into stone?
Could it be that they really know how to enchant?
"Ah bah! There is no cure!"
Chu Nanzhi slapped herself lightly, and re-deduced the whole process.
"If the pirates were just trying to make Lin Jinxiao realize that they were transporting stones, what purpose would they have?"
Chu Nanzhi racked his brains and thought for a while: "So much gold suddenly turned into stones, that guy must be overwhelmed with anxiety. He must either run away immediately and die forever, or ask someone to transport the stones back to the county government to confess his guilt."
But these people are old and young, and they will definitely not abandon their families.
Besides, Lin Jinxiao's reputation in the county is not bad, he can't afford to lose this person.
"That is to transport the stone back to the county government and voluntarily plead guilty."
Chu Nanzhi remembered that the stones brought back were already in the county government.
"Sea bandits do not take it, the stone cannot reach the county government, but can only be transported back to the county government, and the person who carefully planned it must be in the county government."
It seems that someone in the county government wants to covet this batch of tax money.
"County magistrate? County lieutenant? Or his colleagues?"
Chu Nanzhi guessed a lot.
But where do these people have the ability to turn gold into white stones under the eyes of people?
Besides, the county magistrate will not make fun of his own black hat.
and many more!
Chu Nanzhi suddenly remembered what the two said just now, when they checked and sealed the box, there was a Taoist priest beside them.
The Taoist is the one who spread gossip with the original owner.
I heard that this person was invited by the county magistrate's mother to be a guest at the mansion a few years ago, and he has a very good relationship with the county officials.
"Taoist, hehe."
When she came to this world, the first case she came into contact with was only a few hours away. She couldn't restrain the excitement and joy on her face, and she couldn't help but slapped her palm on the table:
"I figured it out, I figured it out, haha, I figured out what's going on."
As soon as the voice fell, there was a click on the table, two legs were broken at the waist, and the package on the table slid down to the ground, making a crisp and pleasant sound.
"Chu Nanzhi, do you have some serious illness?"
The voices in the living room startled the back room, and then came Lin Jinxiao's angry curses.
Chu Nanzhi stared blankly at the broken wooden table, crying inwardly: It's really worse.
She was not allowed to react, and there was continuous crying in the back room:
"Father, is she crazy?"
"Whoa, whoa, we're scared."
"Father, we won't survive anyway, why don't we take her away first, lest she come to harm us again."
"Yes, we are not afraid of her now."
"Don't talk nonsense, father will definitely let you live well, Dabao, you have to promise father that no matter what happens in the future, you will take good care of your younger brothers and sisters."
Lin Jinxiao's comforting and exhorting voice intertwined with the crying of the four little guys, making her very uncomfortable.
Chu Nanzhi gently closed her eyes, thinking about the original owner's usual actions, and realized that she couldn't stay in this house any longer.
Since everyone is uncomfortable, why bother to force each other.
I began to think in my heart that after this matter was over, they would each sign and leave the book, and they would be separated from then on, and no one would hinder the other.
After making up her mind, she simply tidied up the living room, and she went back to the hut and fell down on the simple wooden bed with her eyes closed.
In a daze, I heard the sound of messy footsteps outside the yard.
She slowly opened her eyes, only to realize that it was daylight.
"Master Lin, I was ordered by the county magistrate to come here to question you. If you offend me, please forgive me."
Chu Nanzhi heard the voice, immediately got up, pushed the door and rushed out, only to see that Lin Jinxiao had led the four little guys to the outside of the living room.
His hands are tightly leaning on a cane, and he is supported by the little guys. Although his body is incomplete, his spirit is full of vigor, and he looks righteous and dignified, as if he is ready to die.
The four little guys saw the yamen servants approaching, and they burst into tears immediately, refusing to let go.
The yamen servants were a little embarrassed, the leader glanced at Chu Nanzhi, hesitantly said: "Master Lin, it's better not to embarrass me, let the children follow Mrs. Chu and wait."
Lin Jinxiao remained silent.
Chu Nanzhi knew that he would rather the four little guys die than allow himself to take them with him.
At this moment, Li Ce brought a few people in, carrying a stretcher.
Li Ce was sweating profusely from exhaustion, and while wiping his sweat, he said to the leading yamen servant: "Old Zhang, Brother Jinxiao still has an injury in his leg, the squires told me to take care of him, so as not to insult his integrity as a scholar. "
As he spoke, he took a special look at the torture tools in the hands of the yamen servants, and continued: "Let the brothers carry him to the county yamen."
The leading yamen servant frowned.
"For the sake of my colleagues."
The leading yamen servant nodded hesitantly, and Li Ce rushed to Lin Jinxiao's side to help him onto the stretcher.
Looking at this group of little ones, Lin Jinxiao couldn't bear it, but after a little hesitation, he ruthlessly pushed them aside, and told Li Ce, "I'll leave the children to you."
The four little guys were held tightly in Li Ce's arms, watching their father being taken away, crying and jumping anxiously.
Chu Nanzhi sighed sadly: After all, I alone carried everything.
She shouted at the group of yamen servants: "Wait a minute."
My mother said that young people should not be too impulsive, so the golden finger will come out a little slower, and it will not affect everyone's hand speed
