Chapter 22 The Golden Belt of Murder and Arson

The snow is getting heavier and heavier.

Soon the blood on the ground was covered...

The fight just now also alarmed the sisters in the pork alley and the guests who secretly bought spring.

After walking out of the house one after another, he saw the two corpses lying on the ground. Gao Xiaoyu was squatting beside the corpse to check, while at the door of the foot shop on the other side, Hu Sanniang was supporting the woman in the trough and whispering to comfort her.

"What are you doing?"

Hu Sanniang couldn't help asking when she saw Gao Xiaoyu groping for the body.

Gao Xiaoyu said angrily: "I told you to show mercy, why are you still so cruel? Do you know that I have been staying for most of the day in order to track this guy. I was about to succeed, but I was cut off by you and there were no clues."

Hu Sanniang suddenly showed a look of shyness.

Gao Xiaoyu ignored Hu Sanniang and carefully examined the body.

He did not focus on Jie Zhen's companion, but instead groped Xie Zhen up and down, and finally found a trouser from his waist.

“Huh?”

Gao Xiaoyu opened his arms to check, and his eyes lit up.

So much money!

Unexpectedly, Jie Zhen is still a rich man. In addition to two silos of copper coins, he also stores a large amount of paper money...

Paper banknotes, also known as Qianyin, were transformed from Jiaozi and were issued since the fourth year of Chongning.

In this era, copper coins were hard currency.

But since the Song Dynasty, the court has actually been in a state of shortage of money.

The circulation of goods is increasing, and the amount of transactions is getting bigger and bigger. It is not easy to trade copper coins at any time. So as early as the Zhenzong period, merchants in Sichuan and other places invented Jiaozi, which became the earliest paper currency in Chinese history.

After Emperor Huizong of Song took office, he turned Jiaozi into Qianyan and began to promote it vigorously.

However, due to the poor control of money storing and the willful issuance of money storing, money storing continued to depreciate.

For example, Yiguan Qianyin, the actual purchasing power is only 18 cents of copper coins. But even so, the emergence of Qianyin has indeed alleviated the shortage of money to a certain extent and replaced copper coins. Especially for bulk transactions, the amount involved is often hundreds of guan and thousands of habits. If you trade completely with copper coins, a Chongning Chongbao will cost ten grams, and a Chongning Chongbao will cost about twenty jin, and a hundred jin is two thousand jin, which is about six tons of weight... How can you carry it with you if you have such an amount?

Therefore, although money depreciates, it is also money after all.

There was a thick stack of money in Jie Zhen's arms. At first glance, there were at least a hundred pieces of paper money, and the specific amount was not clear.

The minimum denomination of money is consistent.

In other words, there are at least hundreds of guan coins here. If it were copper coins, it would be almost two guan coins...

A thief leader has a huge sum of four stale money?

Gao Xiaoyu couldn't help but sigh in his heart. It was true that the world was built, there were no bones in the building of bridges and roads, and the golden belts of murder and setting fire! He wouldn't believe that this money was earned by Jie Zhen through hunting... I don't know how many people he killed had gotten it.

When Gao Xiaoyu thought of this, he felt even less guilty and wrapped his arms around his waist.

Your brother robbed my money before and happened to pay back the debt. As for the extra money, just consider it as interest...

And Gao Xiaoyu also needs money now, a lot of money!

After checking Jie Zhen's body, he prepared to check Jie Zhen's companion's body.

At this time, a group of servants ran from the end of the long street and shouted loudly from afar: "Get out of the way, let the government do things."

Both of them led a team of local soldiers to the entrance of the pork alley and saw the two corpses at a glance.

As the prefecture of Dongping Prefecture, Xucheng has good public security... Although there are also organizations like Wang Dalang, it is within a controllable range. There are not many cases of murder in the street like this, let alone killing two people this time.

Anyway, Xucheng has been a first-class case in the past ten years.

Of course, the cases committed by the strong men in Liangshanpo must be excluded.

"Both of you are all heads, and the little path bows."

Gao Xiaoyu quickly turned around and came to Dutou, bowed his head and bowed.

"Who are you……"

All of them pointed their heads at Gao Xiaoyu and suddenly said, "Are you the one who accompanied Lu Yuhou during the day?"

"Do you recognize the path?"

"Oh, during the day, the Marquis of Lu Yu inspected the West Gate, and it was me on duty... I guess you are also from the Capital Administration. What's going on here?"

"These two people are bandits from Liangshan."

"ah?"

Both of them were startled and their eyes fell on the corpse.

Have the Liangshan bandits sneaked into the city?

"This man is Xie Zhen, one of the leaders of Liangshan bandits, nicknamed the two-headed snake.

If Dudu had a captain's document, I thought I could identify it. Xiaodao followed them on the orders of the governor, but he did not want to reveal his whereabouts, so the fight occurred. If Dududuru didn't believe it, he could go to the governor's office immediately and report to Gao governor."

Gao Xiaoyu didn't want to suffer. Since someone recognized him, he simply used the title of the Ministry of State Administration.

He doesn't want to be arrested in prison because of this...

Both of them looked at each other and showed a solemn expression.

The conquest of Liangshanpo by Dongping Prefecture is about to begin. At this time, Liangshan bandits sneak into the city, which is definitely a major event.

"You are here to watch me, I will report to the county magistrate."

This Dutou is the Dutou of Xucheng County Government.

The case happened in Sucheng, and the magistrate of Sucheng must know it as soon as possible.

However, whether he can take charge of the overall situation is not necessarily the case. After all, Xucheng County also has the Dongping Prefecture Office and the Military Supervisory Office. It is related to the bandits of Liangshan, Xucheng County is afraid that it is not able to take charge of the situation. The most likely thing is to report to the higher level.

Those who recognized Gao Xiaoyu all heads and nodded in agreement.

"Young man, everyone is eating a public meal. This case is related to you, so you have to worry about it first.

When news comes from the capital and the government office, it will be convenient for Xiaolangjun. But before that, we will be responsible for the matter here. How about it?"

"Should this be the case."

After Gao Xiaoyu finished speaking, his eyes rolled and he whispered to Na Du Head: "But there is another thing. The troublemaker sent someone to the Du Superintendent immediately to go to the Du Superintendent Office to report the matter. Jie Zhen and his accomplices are in the city. If they haven't appeared for too long, they will probably arouse suspicion. Just explain this to the Du Superintendent, and he will decide. Maybe, there are the benefits of Du Superintendent."

Hearing the head, his eyes lit up.

People go to high places, and water flows to low places.

Whoever wants to be a worker for the rest of her life hopes to have a better future.

Yes, since the Song Dynasty, it is important to emphasize literature and military affairs, but what? That is the matter of the big men. For the head of Xuchengdu, if he can enter the Duguan Mansion, it is a hundred times better than staying in the county government. You must know that this Duguan position was originally an official position in the army. Later, it was used in the yamen, and it was indeed impossible to compare with the power in the army. The head of the yamen, to put it bluntly, is a servant, or even a clerk. This Duguan is also a person with a sporty mind, so how can he not know how to choose?

"Thank you, my little brother, for your advice."

The man smiled and said thank you. Then he called a local soldier and ordered a few words in his ear.
