Chapter 68
With thousands of eyes on it, the city gate finally creaked open.

Before everyone in Ren Ning could turn around, Gu Shengnan and Ma Dali rode out of the city first.

Both of them had gloomy faces on their faces.

"Old Ma, what's going on?" Ren Ning asked.

Ma vigorously shook his head and explained the situation.

They wiped out a cottage with more than 600 people, captured all the bandits, and brought back more than a dozen heads that had been marked with a general order.

This is definitely a huge achievement.

However, the county magistrate of Cangshan County was only willing to pay 20 taels of silver.

"20 taels?" Lei Er almost doubted his ears, "Do you think we are beggars?"

Boom!

He slammed the lance in his hand heavily, "Not to mention, the heads of the three heads of the Jingang Village alone are more than 20 taels of silver."

Cangshan County Yaliwei County Magistrate laughed.

The imperial court kept its word, and since it issued a general order for rewards, it would definitely pay the corresponding rewards.It's just that Cangshan County is poor and can only afford 20 taels for the time being.The rest will take time to raise money.

Love it or not, if not, you can leave first or wait for us to raise enough reward silver before paying together.

The county magistrate had a good plan in his heart.

Anyway, it's a caravan passing by, and if they have the ability, they will stop outside the city and wait for us to raise money.Not to mention the delivery deadline of the caravan, that is, the people in the caravan eat horse chews every day, which is not a small sum.

Let's see who can beat who.

"So you came out with 20 taels of silver?" Ren Ning said.

Ha ha.

The ancient wealth came to life mud.

"Commander Ren, all the fortress officers and soldiers. We have spent the night with the county magistrate. But he is only willing to pay this little. 20 taels is 20 taels, it's better than nothing."

"It's very normal for troublemakers to come out of poor villages. Besides, he is an official of the imperial court. We are just passers-by, and we can't do anything to him. Why don't we just let it go."

He looked up at the sky, "It's getting late, everyone pack up, the team is ready to leave."

"Fuck you, uncle." Lei Er kicked Gu Fugui somersault, "Old guy, die while you're at it."

Pooh!
He spit and turned to look at Ma Dali.

"Old Ma, you have the courage to challenge Lao Ren in the fortress. Is this how you work? Didn't you just chat with the county magistrate last night?"

Ma Dali blushed and was speechless.

He is much older than Ren Ning and the other two, and he is well aware of the shamelessness and greed of these local petty officials.It is already a great fortune to be able to grind out 20 taels of silver.

At first, the county magistrate was only willing to pay ten taels.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Lei Er hummed again.

"It's not ours, I don't want a cent. But if it's Lao Tzu's, let's see which dog official dares to take our money? After taking our money, I want Lao Tzu to smash his teeth and swallow it in his stomach!"

"Fuck him, don't even think about it!"

Everyone turned to Ren Ning.

Ren Ning looked expressionlessly at Gu Shengnan who was going to help the old housekeeper.

"Ancient Merchant, your caravan is going slowly and starts first. The fortress convoy stops first, and we take what belongs to us, and then catch up."

The face of Gu Shengnan's master and servant turned red and white.They babbled and persuaded a few words, but the soldiers in the fortress simply ignored them.

After arranging for Ma Dalong to guard the female relatives and ashes, Ren Ning and Lei Er led their troops into the city aggressively.

Cangshan County is indeed very poor, the place is not big, just a few short streets.

In the morning, [-] people poured in, plus the original residents of the city ran out to watch the excitement, and the streets were full of people, very crowded.

Ren Ning looked left and right, and suddenly asked, "Have you taken down the medical hall for selling and hiding Mongolian sweat medicine?"

"Return to the commander, not yet!" A soldier blushed, "I have been entangled with the county magistrate since yesterday, and I forgot about it."

"Go." Ren Ning waved his hand.

Soon Sanqi changed direction and headed for the medical clinic.

A group of people continued to move forward, and the closer they got to the county government, the more people there were.

After finally seeing the stone lions in front of the county government office, people were already crowded in front of them.

"Dear folks, elders, our magistrate of Wei County loves the people like his own son. When he took office, he knew that bandits were rampant in the county, and the common people couldn't bear to be disturbed by it."

"These days, after careful deployment, the county magistrate personally led his troops up the mountain to suppress the bandits. In one fell swoop, he wiped out the Jingang village nestled in the depths of Luoxia Mountain. This battle was a complete victory. Not only did more than 57 bandits and robbers be captured, He also rescued [-] captive female relatives..."

"King Kong Village has always been a disaster for all directions, drinking the blood of the elders and eating the flesh of the villagers. The crime is extremely heinous. Their three village owners and fourteen team leaders have all hanged their heads. The county magistrate now orders them to expose their bodies for three days. The people//angry..."

hum~
The people couldn't help talking about it.

"Didn't you say that a passing caravan wiped out bandits yesterday? Why did you become a magistrate today?"

hum.

Someone sneered.

"Everyone has seen the caravan. They pass by in a hurry every time, and sometimes even give gifts to those bandits and bandits. How could they go to suppress the bandits? There is no doubt that it is of course the county magistrate's credit."

"The county magistrate is not a good thing. He has been in office for several years, and he is diligent in collecting taxes. Have you ever seen him go up to the mountains to suppress bandits and bandits?"

"That's true. I think the bandits forced the Gu family's caravan too hard. The caravan has a lot of money, so they bought a group of ruthless people and went up the mountain to destroy the King Kong tofu village."

No no.

There are gray-haired old people crying and pushing forward.

"I don't care who killed the bandit. I just want my daughter to be alive. Did the people in front see her?"

"I went hunting in the mountains once, and my daughter-in-law was taken away by bandits. Let me go in and see if my wife is there."

……

There are too many people in front, those who look at the bandit's head look at his head, those who scold the bandit continue to scold, those who recognize the child recognize the child.In a daze, Ren Ning was forced to ride more than [-] horses and horses and couldn't move.

Die!
There was a loud whip.

"Get out of the way!" Lei Er roared angrily.

The dense crowd was stunned for a moment, and they all turned their heads to look.

There were tall horses all around behind, and the people on the horses were all tall and burly, and the weapons in their hands were even more shiny.

The people knew they couldn't afford to offend them, so they couldn't help but make way.

Many people even recognized Ren Ning and his party, "See, these are the real heroes who killed the bandits. The county magistrate wanted to take credit for it, and now they have come to him."

"You..." The four yamen servants who maintained order rushed over and were about to ask questions.

Clap clap clap!

Lei Er had already lashed down a few times indiscriminately, causing them to roll on the ground on the spot, unable to get up again.

Seeing that the situation was not good, a group of policemen and yamen servants surrounded him with knives and sticks.

"Do you know where this place is, if you dare to trespass the Cangshan county government office, are you not afraid of the law of the court?"

Ren Ning rode on Zhuifeng, silently looking at the sword in front of him.His gaze was calm, but the arresters and yamen servants were sweating profusely from his sight.

To be able to become "civil servants", they all have some discernment.

They naturally know what kind of life the bandits and robbers on the nearby mountains are living.The team in front of them is well-equipped and full of energy, so they cannot be bandits.

Besides, many people saw Lei Er's face that was always gnawing on things yesterday.

Now that they dare to barge into the county government office in broad daylight, that means one thing.As the other party, he didn't care about the small county government at all.

"Go and call your magistrate Wei." Ren Ning said calmly.

"Who is your Excellency? The county magistrate is something you can see whenever you want?" A yamen servant subconsciously said.

Snapped!
Without further ado, Lei Er raised his horsewhip and whipped it out heavily, knocking the yamen servant who answered the question to the ground on the spot.

flutter!
A mouthful of blood flew out with two teeth.

"I don't know how to live or die. I didn't bother to listen yesterday. I didn't expect you to fool us. A small county magistrate dared to pretend to be a big head Buddha in front of us."

"I count to five, if he doesn't come out again, he doesn't have to come out."

Lei Er spat out the bones in his mouth and counted them.

"one!"
