Chapter Thirty-Five: Walking the Streets (8)(2/2)

Exit Jiaqing Square, go up the city wall, and turn to the tower on the south city wall located in the middle of Jiaqing and Jiajing Second Square.

This is the temporary stronghold for the second patrol team directly under the Fusi of Jing'an Taichung Town, led by Bai Yousi, to pursue the imperial prisoners.

The group of people turned into the tower. Bai Yousi and another group of people were already waiting here, waiting next to the fire in the middle. When the two groups met, they immediately compared the situation of the two squares.

Zhang Xing did not interrupt, nor did he intend to warm himself by the fire. Instead, holding his knife, he walked to the north-facing window of the tower, lay down directly on the window, and stared at the Dongdu City shrouded in the summer rain in a daze.

Qin Bao, on the other hand, squeezed to the fire.

After a while, both sides finished comparing the information, and both felt embarrassed, and the situation became awkward for a while.

At this time, Qin Bao, who looked back at Zhang Xing several times but received no response, finally blushed and spoke: "Inspector, deputy inspector, I also have something to say... I just went to inspect with Brother Zhang."

I went to the rice shop in Jiaqingfang and found that it was not as good as the other shops in the north. The stores in the shop had very little stock..."

"It's just a few stores, remember a few faces, pay a little attention to them, and allow them to purchase goods on a daily basis." Li Qingchen blurted out. "Don't delay the inspection."

"It's not just a store." Qin Bao took a breath and continued to look at Bai Yousi and Hu Yanlai seriously. "The honest residents here don't have any inventory at home, so they have to buy it themselves in a few days... Zhang San and I

I bumped into a sister-in-law who was carrying a child on her back and only bought a bushel of rice."

"no……"

Hu Yan had already ducked and lowered his head, Bai Yousi's expression turned gloomy, Qian Tang and several experienced patrolmen even raised their heads and sighed slightly, Li Qingchen still didn't understand. "We let the store go to purchase goods, and let these residents in

Isn’t it enough to just buy things in the shop?”

"Li Twelve, do you understand? The reason why stores have low inventory is because they have small capital. The store has little money and can only buy groceries at one time. The reason why residents have no inventory at home is because they don't have any money at home.

If you go out to Tianjie or Luoshui to work for one day, you can only have rice for the second or third day..." Qin Bao finally got a little angry. "Only let the stores purchase goods, and don't let these poor people work to make money.

Where did they come from to buy rice, grains and groceries? It’s not a proverb, it’s a truth. If they are all sealed up and locked up in large numbers, they will run out of food every three to five days.

, people can starve to death in seven or eight days!”

Li Qingchen had never been scolded by Qin Bao in public before, but what he said was simple and easy to understand, and he couldn't refute it for a while, so he just started talking about it.

Bai Yousi glanced at Zhang Xing, who was watching the rain with his back to everyone, but the latter remained silent and motionless. In desperation, the female inspector also looked a little embarrassed:

"The poverty-stricken village in Nancheng is not just Jiaqing, but Jiaqing No. 2, right? What will other villages do?"

"What can be done?" Qian Tang felt extremely distressed when he saw his home inspection in such a mess, and immediately lowered his voice to respond. "Inspection... I know what you are thinking, but in fact, this Dongdu City is known as

The most kind place in the world, but every year when it snows, people in the south of the city freeze to death, and even when it rains like this, people often die... At that time, did anyone want to protect one or two? We felt dirty this time because it was all over our heads.

Hands...and other shops, I'm afraid they won't care about anything."

"You have to bite the bullet and do it!" After a while, Hu Yan struggled to speak out and pushed. "This is not a joke... When your Majesty was angry, even Bai Shilang was sent directly to prison, and people like us were suppressed layer by layer.

If someone is caught in an obviously bad situation, I'm afraid it would be normal for him to be executed... Jiaqing and Jiajing, the secret passages, and the waterways are ignored for the time being. Instead of going deep, seal the four gates and square walls first, and cross the cross street.

Then, sweep the streets and alleys in order, and always give instructions to the superiors."

Everyone went to see Bai Yousi. Bai Yousi was speechless for a long time, but finally lowered his head:

"There is something I haven't told you. This afternoon, I don't know whether it was the decree issued directly by Ziwei Palace or the decree requested by the Nanya Dukes. Anyway, an order was issued. Anyone who is a fugitive involved in Yang Shen's case will be punished.

The theory of death row is that he will be killed without mercy, his immediate family members will be implicated, he will be killed on the spot, and his property will be confiscated... In other words, a large-scale killing spree has begun in the north."

"They are all on duty, and we are helpless." When Hu Yan heard this, he became more and more frustrated, and his tone became more urgent. "The best way to deal with inspections is to make them faster, harder, and more rigorous...

, give the order! The military order given by the superiors is to seal the workshop for inspection!"

Bai Yousi took a long breath and was about to call Zhang Xing.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Xing actually took the initiative to look back at him at this time: "So, even the inspection team and Brother Hu have no good solution?"

"good."

Hu Yan raised his eyes and looked at the other party. He was very impressed by this young man who carried a body thousands of miles away, so he can be regarded as respectful. "Zhang Sanlang, do you have it?"

"I have two strategies!" Zhang Xing held his knife in hand and said seriously. "I don't know if it is feasible or not? Please ask the two inspectors to consult with you brothers for details."

"We are all grasshoppers on the same rope." Qian Tang urged before Bai Yousi. "Quickly speaking, as long as you can relieve everyone's difficulties, we are only grateful to you."

"The best policy is to seal the village according to the rules first, and then everyone will spend five days to repair the walls of the village and build houses for the people in the village. At the same time, buy several hundred pounds of grain and distribute it to the residents, in order to gather people's hearts. Once the hearts of the people are gathered,

, whenever there is something wrong in the company, someone will inevitably show mercy. This is my experience..."

"That's almost it." Li Qingchen was furious. "To win over people's hearts, Sister Si's family background has won people's hearts like this. I'm afraid she won't have to wait for the fugitives in the house to be found, and she will be rebelled by someone here first."

Bai Yousi and Hu Yan were also a little disappointed.

But Zhang Xing smiled calmly: "Then we have to make the last move!"

"What's the next step?" Bai Yousi maintained his last patience and expectation for the subordinate in front of him.

"The next step is divided into five steps."

Zhang Xing held the knife in one hand and raised his fingers slightly with the other hand to point it at him.

"The first thing is to ask for power! Please ask the inspection inspector to immediately summon the relevant Henan County officers, city wall defenders, Jinwu guards on the street... and Jingjiehu... around the two squares, and tell them that you are a genuine fifth-grade Zhu Shou inspection officer.

, or the noble Bai family, let all of them gather their power in the hands of the inspection, unified command, and unified use. Whoever dares to say no, if anyone is playing tricks, kill Liwei directly... Be quick and ruthless!"

"It's a simple matter." Bai Yousi didn't even blink.

"The second step is to seal the square. Don't worry about the waterways and tunnels... It's a good thing if they really escaped from below... The inspector himself is sitting here, condescending, and ready to support at any time. The two squares are assigned manpower, no matter what.

, first plug the gap in the square wall and surround it... This is a direct military order from above."

"Is this necessary?" Bai Yousi frowned, and Qin Bao was also a little disappointed.

"I'm afraid this step must be taken." Zhang Xing lowered his head and smiled. "Then the third step is the same... buy food. There is no shortage of food in the East. The food in Luokou warehouse is piled up like a mountain. Before, a bucket of five cents was enough.

Even if something like this happened, it would only cost fifteen cents per dou... Several hundred strings of grain, if used sparingly, would be enough for the people in the village to make ends meet these days."

"I told you that you can't distribute food without authorization." Li Qingchen stamped his feet anxiously. "I don't care about human life, but I did it like this. I'm afraid more lives will be lost!"

"If you don't give out food, you won't win people's hearts." Zhang Xing sneered. "This is for the reward. Whoever reports the suspect will be given food. This is the fourth step."

The atmosphere in the tower was slightly stagnant, as if someone had realized something.

"But Third Brother, is there really a suspect in these two houses by chance?" Qin Bao couldn't bear it. "If not, wouldn't the food be distributed when it arrives?"

"Just like who reports merit, don't we have the final say on whether there is a suspect?" Zhang Xing finally stared at Bai Yousi and said the last step. "Inspection, the fifth step is to kill! Killing is not relevant in this case.

People come here to take credit for their hard work!"

"Zhang Xing, you are looking for death..." Just when Qin Bao and others were stunned, Bai Yousi was the first to react, but he became furious. The long sword in his hand flew out on its own, and then suddenly stopped.

Because Hu Yan, the deputy with the black ribbon who has been assisting her properly for a long time and is also the most experienced here, suddenly showed joy on his face and burst into action:

"feasible!"

Bai Yousi was stunned and froze on the spot again like everyone else who had just reacted.

I can't help it, it's going too fast.

"Inspection inspection, please don't do anything. The truth is actually very simple." Zhang Xing looked at the long sword that was gradually drilling into Bai Yousi's hand and smiled. "In fact, everyone knows the current situation. Those who robbed the prison are like that."

He is well-trained and has a solid foundation for advancing and retreating, but where can he find it easily in the 150 square meters of the Eastern Capital City and the mountains and plains of Beimang?"

"But the emperor is angry, and the princes of Nanya are angry. One level is suppressing the other. The military law is as great as the sky. Everyone has to submit their duties. If they don't submit their duties, what will happen if they themselves are guilty? Then we can only use hard work and strength to give them to the emperor.

Let’s make an explanation from above.”

"Not to mention hard work, when it comes to strength, isn't it the easiest thing to do to kill someone and take credit for it?"

"For example, when we followed the conventional approach, we were told that we could only seal the gate according to military orders, then sweep it carefully, and then ignore the lives of the people below... Why is everyone so intolerant? Because this move is essentially a demonstration of hard work and killing.

The good is forfeiting merit, and the weak is forfeiting merit, which is to use the blood of innocent people to make a statement... The only excuse is that the most evil thing was not done by you or me with our own hands."

"In this case, we have to kill people to take credit anyway, why don't we kill people who deserve to take credit? In other places, because we are incompetent and cowardly, we have to kill the weak and take credit... We are different, we have the ability.

With strategy, organization, and benevolence, we can kill criminals and take credit for their crimes, and kill strongmen for their credit!"

After saying this, Zhang Xing looked around in three directions. At this time, even the dullest patrolman suddenly realized. Bai Yousi's eyes were shining, staring at the subordinate he picked up on the road with interest and laughing.

Zhang Xing looked around and saluted Bai Yousi: "Inspection inspection, I heard nursery rhymes on the road today, saying that Jiaqing and Jiajing, every house is clean, we have to do things to deliver to the superiors anyway, why not take advantage of the situation to return these two things?"

Can the house be truly clean for once?! Put those local gangs on the map as possibly harboring criminals and raid them on a large scale?! Killing him will lead to rivers of blood and heads. Who dares to say that we don't do our best to serve the king?"

Bai Yousi looked around and didn't wait for the people around him to speak. He just raised his eyebrows and slapped the long sword in his hand on the case: "Well said! Since the princes in the court want to see us kill each other, it will be a river of blood."

, then let’s kill him until he bleeds like a river, and kill him completely! Is there anyone here who dares not to kill anyone?!”
