Qin Shizhen? Liu Zhizu searched his mind and made sure he had never heard of this person. He was a little confused, why did the squire from Anyi come to him? However, Liu Zhizu waved his hand and asked his soldiers to bring Qin Shizhen.

"Qin Shizhen, Anyi, I have seen the general." Not long after, a thin man, all in tatters, as if he had just been raped by someone else, looked extremely pitiful, and stumbled over.

"What do you want from me?" After seeing the man's face clearly, Liu Zhizu was convinced that he did not recognize him.

"General." Qin Shizhen suddenly knelt on the ground and said with tears: "General, I was originally doing some small business in Anyi. Although life was tight, I could still persevere. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xianzhong suddenly attacked Anyi.

In the city, the villain was sitting at home, and disaster came from the sky. Zhang Xianzhong's rogue bandits ran to the villain's house and plundered all the property of the villain, which was at least 8,000 taels..."

"Okay, okay! Just get to the point. What are you here to do?" Qin Yuming said impatiently when he saw this man Luo Liba talking nonstop.

"I beg you, general, to return to me the property that Zhang Xianzhong robbed my family." After Qin Shizhen finished speaking, he prostrated himself on the ground and pressed his forehead firmly to the ground, showing his utmost sincerity.

Liu Zhizu looked at him without saying a word, his eyes a little cold. As early as when this man kept talking in a long and verbose manner, Liu Zhizu already had such a hunch in his heart, and when he finished speaking, he turned out to be

Just as I expected.

It stands to reason that Zhang Xianzhong, as a robber, robbed a kind family's wealth, and Liu Zhizu, as a hero who fought off the robbers and rescued the people, encountered the owner of the property who came to demand his property. It is only natural that the property should be returned to the original owner.

matter.

However, who can guarantee whether this person is a pathfinder sent by the big families in Anyi? If it is easy to return all his so-called property to him, then it is difficult for other big families in Anyi not to do so.

Come here and learn from me. If everyone is like this, there will be so much gold and silver in total, and it may not be enough to divide them among them.

What's more, who can guarantee that what they say is the truth? Never underestimate the greed of human nature. For example, if they only lost one hundred taels, they reported that they lost three hundred taels, five hundred taels, or even one thousand taels.

Two, and thus ask for these three hundred taels, five hundred taels, or even one thousand taels from the Pei Jiajun? Is it possible that the Pei Jiajun should give money to compensate them?

If one thing is not done well, all the early image of loving the people will be ruined, and those private salt dealers will take advantage of it and incite the people to revolt.

It seems that when the Pei family's army entered the city, their methods were too gentle. At least these big families did not see any blood, which made them mistakenly think that the Pei family's army had become sheep eating grass, making them feel that they were capable again.

Thinking of this, Liu Zhizu's face suddenly put on a smile again. He walked up to Qin Shizhen, stretched out his hand to help him up, and said very gently: "You are right. My Pei family army is here to expel Zhang Xianzhong."

The stolen money from Zhang Xianzhong must be returned to the owner, otherwise, what is the difference between me, Pei Jiajun, and Zhang Xianzhong?"

Qin Shizhen thought he heard wrongly, and stood there in a daze, wondering why the pie in the sky suddenly fell and knocked him unconscious.

In fact, he was indeed robbed of a lot of property by Zhang Xianzhong. This can withstand investigation, but it is not as miserable as what he said. Although a lot of property was robbed, the money he buried in the cellar was enough for his family.

He has lived a comfortable life. At the beginning, due to the majesty of the Pei Jiajun, he actually did not dare to come and ask for it, for fear that the Pei Jiajun would take away all the remaining money from him.

But there was a turning point. One of his business friends mentioned to him that Pei Jiajun was very organized in his work in Xia County. He never engaged in bullying or forced buying and selling. If he wanted to ask for his family property, he would be honest.

Yanshun, not even Pei Jiajun can say anything is wrong. What's more, even if he doesn't come back, there is nothing to lose, right?

With an attitude of giving it a try, Qin Shizhen came anyway, and made sufficient preparations before coming. He deliberately changed out of the fine silk he was wearing and put on tattered clothes snatched from a beggar at the door.

When he was walking, a pungent stench almost knocked him out, so he could only wash it a little, paint his face black, and hide a piece of green onion in his hand that could make people cry, to match his slim figure.

, a feeling of desolation and desolation arises spontaneously.

Thinking that it would be best if he could get it back, there would be nothing he could do if he didn't. Qin Shizhen didn't report too much. He only said that the property robbed from his home was equivalent to more than 8,000 taels of silver. Who would have thought that the leader of the Pei family army would be like this?

It was so easy to talk to him that he actually agreed to return the money to him. At the same time, he felt a little regretful in his heart. He had known that he had just paid more.

"What? You don't believe it? Or do you think that Pei Jiajun and I are all the same as Zhang Xianzhong?" Seeing Qin Shizhen standing there blankly, Liu Zhizu asked again with a smile.

"Don't dare, don't dare." Qin Shizhen hurriedly came to his senses and kept saying "I don't dare." However, the greed in his eyes could no longer be hidden.

"Don't worry. I, Pei Jiajun, are the most disciplined and will never take any of other people's property. Well, there must be a lot of people in Anyi who have the same experience as you. When you go back, inform the owners of Anyi

Everyone. Tomorrow morning, at the gate of the county government, when all the owners of the property robbed by Zhang Xianzhong arrive, I will deal with it together and return the property to the owner on the spot. What do you think?" Liu

There was an indescribable meaning in the contented smile.

But at this moment, Qin Shizhen no longer had the sense to make a judgment. For fear that Liu Zhizu would regret it, he quickly said: "Okay, thank you, general. Thank you, general. I will definitely inform the people in Anyi and let all the people come and see the Pei family army."

's different,"

Although Liu Zhizu acted so benevolently, sometimes sincerity cannot be exchanged for sincerity. On the surface, Qin Shizhen thanked him repeatedly, but in fact, he secretly laughed in his heart. He laughed at the Pei family army for being too stupid, even though he had to divide the money he had grabbed.

For those wealthy people, they really don’t know what to do with their money.

Liu Zhizu pretended not to notice Qin Shizhen's little move and sent him away with a smile. Looking at Qin Shizhen's retreating figure, Liu Zhizu said to Qin Yuming without looking back: "Go and check the big households in Anyi.
