In the evening, Cherdan returned to the mansion, ate half a roast chicken, drank a can of ale, and slowly calmed down from his tension.

Manda smiled and said, "Didn't you say that no one can see through your disguise? Why are you so scared?"

"I have confidence in myself, but I really don't want to try it by myself. It is too unwise to do so. Unwise actions will be disgusted by the gods!"

Although there were a lot of complaints, Cheerdan completed the task. He wandered in the east of the city for a whole day. In the morning, he saw that the butler of the Minister of Foreign Affairs went to the twilight tavern first, and then to the official residence of the sheriff Stanton. In the afternoon, he saw Stanton himself and Mirada go to the Grand Ombudsman's residence together.

Obviously, Stanton was under pressure from two high-ranking officials. In addition, Cheerdan noticed one thing. Stanton posted a notice in front of the mansion that he was recruiting craftsmen, which meant that he had to invest in the restoration of Twilight. Tavern.

"My friend needs my help." Manda pondered for a moment, and asked Chuyt to change his costume and go to the east of the city to monitor the twilight tavern. Then he asked Cherdan to go outside the city to help him find a way to Mount Bergmia. .

"Begemia Mountain? Why are you going there? Do you have a site there too? I remember your territory is on Qixing Mountain, Qixing Mountain is in the southwest, and Bergmia Mountain is in the east..."

"Why do you have so many questions?" Manda said angrily, "I told you, don't speculate on my thoughts! This road must be secretive, with people and carriages able to walk, and there should not be too many bandits on the road."

"It's really too difficult. If there was such a way, I would have shipped gold coins."

Manda smiled and said: "It is because of the difficulty that you are allowed to do it. Now you are no longer alone, and a small number of bandits don't need to care."

Three days later, Manda took Guatle to the east of the city and met Stanton who was overseeing the work in the twilight tavern.

This is not what the sheriff should do, which shows how much pressure Stanton has taken.

The Twilight Tavern was burned by a third. According to Manda's judgment, it would take at least three months to complete the restoration, but Stanton said that one month was enough.

"This is the royal capital. There are the best craftsmen here. If I can't finish the work within a month, I'll peel them off!"

"I also have a good craftsman in my hand, let him come here to help, and I will learn from the craftsmen in the royal capital."

Guatel went to the construction site, chatted with a craftsman, and stirred the clay with him.

Stanton sighed and said, "I'm very happy that you can come to help, but what I lack is not a craftsman."

Manda took out the purse and stuffed it into Stanton's hand: "Be careful, don't dislike it."

"I'm not short of money..." He made a few excuses, but Stanton still put the money bag in his arms.

"You told me before that the general will help me say a few good things. I don't know about this..."

"The general has already said a lot of good things for you. There was a similar incident in the south of the city, causing the general's nephew to lose his official position, but the king did not pursue your fault. Don't you understand the reason?"

"Things in Chengnan are different. A nobleman died and lost taxes. The Minister of State's house was also burned. This matter in Chengdong is not worth mentioning compared with Chengnan."

Manda smiled: "Since it's not worth mentioning, you have nothing to worry about."

"You still don’t understand. I’ll just say it straight. The Minister of Foreign Affairs and the Ombudsman asked me to recover his gold coins. If I can’t find it back, I will compensate them for their losses. Each of them lost more than 10,000. Gold coins, how can I get so much money?"

Manda almost screamed, a group of shameless people, Manda only stole more than 10,000 gold coins, and it doubled in their mouths.

"I'll give you a suggestion. Ignore them. Helping the Minister of Foreign Affairs fix the tavern is considered to be the best. If they are not convinced, let them go to the king to make a theory!"

Stanton smiled wryly: "Are you talking about laughing? What can I do in front of them?"

Manda also smiled: "In front of the general, what do they count?"

"The general will not offend them because of me."

"It depends on your relationship with the general. If you are his loyal subordinate, he will naturally protect you."

Stanton was taken aback, took Manda to a place where no one was there, and whispered: "You may have misunderstood what I mean. I don't want to join the general. I just want to be a friend of the general, a good friend."

Manda shrugged and said, "I'll be honest, as we are, I am afraid that we are not qualified to be a friend of the general."

"You know that there is some conflict between him and the God's Punishment Church. If I take refuge in him, I will become the enemy of God's Punisher."

Seeing Stanton's nervousness, Manda leaned into his ear and said, "Are you afraid of the God's Punisher?"

"Who is not afraid?"

"Are you afraid of the Minister of Foreign Affairs and the Ombudsman?"

"Of course I'm afraid."

"Which one are you more afraid of?"

Stanton didn't know how to answer, Manda shook his head and said, "If you are afraid of everything, I don't think no one can help you."

Manda left the east of the city and left Guatle alone in the Twilight Tavern. That night, he brought a craftsman in his twenties.

"His name is Na Saudi, and he is a good craftsman."

Being able to get Guatle’s approval, proving that this craftsman is really good, Manda straightforwardly asked: "What is your price?"

Mushat was taken aback, lowered his head and said, "My lord, I am one of the best blacksmiths in the capital. I ask for fifty copper coins a day."

"It's really not cheap."

The young man bit his lip, puffed his chest and said, "My lord, I think I'm worth the price."

"Fifty copper coins a day, all year round, day in and day out, you can make almost two gold coins."

The young man nodded confidently.

"I'll give you twenty gold coins, but I want you to go to a far place, would you like it?"

Stanton was frightened. He didn't know what the twenty gold coins looked like, unless he worked hard for ten years without eating or drinking to save so much money. But he has a wife and three children, and can save up to a dozen silver coins each year.

He felt that Manda was a liar, and no one would spend so much money to hire a craftsman.

Unexpectedly, Manda counted out twenty gold coins to his face and stuffed them into his hand.

"Take it. If you want, you will leave in three days. If you don’t want to, return the gold coins to me at this time tomorrow. If you are greedy and want to take the gold coins to escape, I will take you away within two days. Bring the head back. If you tell this to others, I will cut your tongue and let you eat it."

...

Back at the mansion, the tired Stanton lay on the bed, recalling Manda's words, he had a heartbeat, but he quickly dispelled the idea.

A few months ago, the west of the city was full of torture racks, and the entire king was enveloped in the sickening smoke.

In any case, they can't offend the divine punishment person. They are too terrible. Let's drag the current matter first. A solution can always be thought of...

Sleeping in a daze until dawn, Stanton was awakened by his law enforcement officer.

"My lord, the chief inspector has sent someone here, and he tells you to go to his mansion."

Stanton rubbed his forehead, clenched his fists, put on his robe, and got into the carriage.

The Chief Inspector Yefugen was eating breakfast, and when he saw Stanton coming in, he didn't even give him a seat, which made Stanton stand awkwardly at the table.

After eating the last piece of bread, Ye Fugen wiped his mouth and said, "Did the bandits find it?"

Stanton lowered his head and said, "Still looking for ~www.readwn.com~sir."

"When are you going to find out?"

"I did my best, my lord."

Ye Fugen squeezed his chin, tapped the edge of the table lightly with his hand, and meditated for a while and said: "Resign from the post of sheriff, you are not worthy."

"My lord, I..." Stanton's head buzzed, but Yefugen didn't want to give him a chance to speak.

"You don’t need to argue. Even if you don’t want to, I will suggest that the king remove you from your position. You are stupid, even stupid than your father. The most stupid thing your father did was to win you this official position. , He is harming you, because you are really unworthy.

I will give you three days, and within three days I will see a hundred gold coins, otherwise you will immediately disappear from the capital and go back to your father's fief! "
