Chapter 110 Rewarding 100 Taels of Silver
Qin Yao had no idea that there was such a thing. She only knew the first half of the sentence, and no one had told her the second half.

Ordinary people only remember the first half of the sentence, killing thieves is not a crime.I didn’t expect there would be a reward later.

Shopkeeper Fan sighed when he saw Qin Yao's "wrong" expression.

"Hey, it's no wonder you don't know. The county never publicizes. Ordinary people don't know a single big character, and they don't even recognize the laws and regulations posted at the gate of the city. Some deviations are normal."

Moreover, whether you can receive the reward depends on the county magistrate's understanding of this law. Qin Yao may not be able to get what he deserves.

Besides, it's been so long now, it's too late to say.

It was only when he saw Qin Yao that shopkeeper Fan wanted to tell her.

"Besides, it's impossible for you, a woman, to be an official." He sighed in amusement.

Qin Yao smiled and continued to drink the last mouthful of mutton soup, remaining silent for a long time.

She recalled the few officials who came to the village ancestral hall to inquire at the beginning of the year. They looked at her with surprise, but not much, and even a sense of relief.

Come to think of it, they also knew about this law at that time, and they were relieved when they found out that she was a woman.

Because there is no need to arrange it for her.

As for the rewards, let alone her, the village chief followed him to the county town and didn't see a single penny.

The chat with shopkeeper Fan made Qin Yao understand the world a little bit more, and she also strongly hoped that Liu Ji could get a good name in the exam.

Even if she is just a scholar, next time she kills a bandit leader, the government will tell her that she can get a reward.

"Are you leaving tomorrow?" Shopkeeper Fan asked a little reluctantly.

Qin Yao nodded, "There is still farm work to be done at home." The water truck still has unfinished orders.

Shopkeeper Fan sighed softly, "I want to learn two more kung fu moves from you, and I'm leaving now."

Qin Yao smiled lightly at him and said, "When you have time in the future, come to my house as a guest."

"Is it possible?" Shopkeeper Fan asked excitedly.

Qin Yao said yes, and he suddenly laughed, "I'm a little curious about what your family looks like. Last year, you hunted a black and blind man, and the fertile land in your family should have increased by several acres, right? Are you the richest person in your village? ?”

Normally, this is what Shopkeeper Fan said.

It's a pity that Qin Yao's family has an abnormal disaster.

She could only say calmly: "We are still working hard."

Shopkeeper Fan smiled awkwardly, asked her to go to the guest room to rest, and went back to the counter to get busy.

Qin Yao asked for an ordinary single room and spent 120 Wen including her top-five food.

A good night's sleep.

Qin Yao left the room early in the morning, said goodbye to shopkeeper Fan, and prepared to go home.

Before leaving, maybe he was a little dissatisfied in his heart, and by a strange coincidence, he walked against the flow of people and walked to the gate of the Kaiyang County Yamen.

The streets are full of people, very lively.

Only here, here is a large open space, there are few people, only occasionally people stop in front of the notice board standing in front of the gate.

It's a pity that there are not many people who can read and write. Those who read the notices are all scholars, and they have their own nobility.

Qin Yao originally wanted to see what the yamen looked like before leaving, but now she saw the two scholars in front of the notice board leaving after reading. No one was there. Out of curiosity, she walked over to see what was posted on the government notice board. What content.

When he came closer, the first thing that caught his eye was a reward notice with a portrait on it, and a big word "reward" circled in red pen.The circled word "reward" made Qin Yao's heart beat two beats faster.

A lengthy article was written on the notice to accuse the horse bandits of their illegal activities and to express the anger of the people and the government.

Qin Yao's mind automatically eliminated unnecessary words and came up with a summary——

Bandits have been rampant and arrogant recently, and their various behaviors have become so cruel that even livestock can't bear it. Therefore, a reward notice is now issued, calling on the warriors of the county to take active action and kill the bandit leaders to help the government to eradicate the horse bandits. No matter what their origins or status, they are male or female. Regardless of whether the girl is young or old, she will be rewarded with 100 taels of silver!

"Hiss~" Qin Yao took a deep breath. The wind in this summer morning was filled with heat. Taking a breath, her adrenaline surged.

Qin Yao quickly calmed down her excitement and confirmed three times that the notice said 100 taels of silver. She immediately walked to the door of the Yamen and asked the two officers and soldiers guarding the door:
"How to accept this reward?"

One more second of hesitation is a sign of disrespect for those 100 taels!

The two officers and soldiers obviously didn't hear what she said clearly, or they thought they heard it wrong.

After all, the reward notice has been posted for half a year and no one has posted it. Every time the handwriting changes, the master has to rewrite it and paste it again and again.

Qin Yao asked again: "How to accept the reward?"

The two officers and soldiers gave her a surprised look. One of them pointed at the notice board with an impatient expression, "Just take it off!"

Qin Yao understood, turned back, "stabbed", under the shocked eyes of the two officers and soldiers, tore off the entire notice posted on it, and went back to the government office to ask them:

"I uncovered it, what next? Can I just lift the head of the person on the painting back? Do I need to register it first? How will I collect the reward then?"

It was also the first time for her to reveal a reward in ancient times. This is not the end of the world. There is a computer to automatically register. After completing the mission, just hand it in to the mission hall, and the money will automatically arrive.

Although they are all in their old profession, she doesn't know the process, and only the 100 taels are in her mind, and she just feels that the fierce and vicious bandit capital in the painting has a beautiful face.

At the same time, Qin Yao was still regretting in her heart, why didn't she come to the gate of the county government office earlier to have a look.

If she had known earlier, would she have been able to keep those horse bandits alive until now?

"I asked you a question, why didn't you answer? Is this reward fake?" Qin Yao waited for a long time and got impatient when she didn't get a reply.

Don't delay her from making money!

Only then did the two officers and soldiers confirm that she was for real.

One of them rushed into the government office immediately and shouted: "Master! Someone revealed the list!"

The other one still pointed at the notice with some disbelief and asked Qin Yao, "You are a woman, do you know what is written on this reward notice?"

"I know, the reward of 100 taels is not for killing the heads of the leaders of the gang of horse bandits, am I right?" Qin Yao also wanted to confirm, lest she misunderstand.

The officers and soldiers asked her what her name was and where she was from. Qin Yao answered them one by one. She looked sober and did not look like a madman at all, and then he led her in.

Qin Yao did not expect that the first time she entered the Yamen was in such a way.

She didn't see the county magistrate, only the master and the county magistrate.

Of these two, one is equivalent to the county magistrate's secretary, and the other is equivalent to the director of the Public Security Bureau in charge of Kaiyang County's defense force.

The common people wanted to kneel when they saw an official. Qin Yao went to the countryside to do as the Romans did. Xuxu knelt down on one knee and briefly explained the matter of his exposure before getting up.

No one thought that she, a woman, was teasing the Yamen by revealing the results. After all, a woman who dared to do this was not simple.

When Qin Yao said that she also killed a small leader of the horse bandit at the beginning of the year, the eyes of the magistrate's eyes burst into a ray of hope.
