In a tavern, Jian Cheng and Fang Ping sat opposite each other, drinking and talking.

After drinking a glass of wine, Jian Cheng said: "Today I went to Ye County Government. The magistrate and the county magistrate were polite and took good care of them. I checked the files of the Bai family case, and there was no loophole. The documents and confessions that should be available were complete, without any flaws. I could see clearly that this case was done so cleanly, and I think there was something strange about it."

Fang Ping said: "I went to the factory of Jian Guanwai today, but I heard some news. I heard from the people nearby and the manager of the factory that Jianwai is a local native and has made a lot of money over the years and is very powerful in the county. There are two people in his family who work as officials in the county, and they are all old officials, so they will naturally not leave any flaws when doing things."

Jian Cheng nodded repeatedly: "They did this case too clean, which made people suspicious. I have been in the Censorate for more than 20 years and have never seen the files so perfect, and I can't find any flaws. There are people in his family who are officials, so this makes people understand."

After saying that, Jian Cheng raised his glass and said, "I have been here for a day and I always have some flaws. Come on, let's drink a glass and pay more attention these days."

In fact, there are obvious doubts in such cases. How can there be no gossip in places? Especially in places like Ye County, there are many people and everything they do, and there are many migrant populations and many migrant populations, which cannot be blocked by the people. However, for officials, such a case will not take too much energy. Ye County is so big that there are too many things to do. The magistrate and county magistrate are not familiar with the following, and their information comes almost all from officials. As long as the files are done well, there is almost no possibility of overturning the case in normal circumstances.

Jian Cheng and Fang Ping were drinking and eating vegetables while talking about what they saw today. After listening to Fang Ping's speech, Jian Cheng said: "Now it seems that the key to this case, the easiest thing now is the book shop that makes loan notes. Tomorrow I will continue to go to the yamen to investigate and read all the files. You go to that book shop, don't make a statement, it's better to find a reason. Just look at how they do things from the side, remember not to alert the snake."

Fang Ping said: "It's good. But the case is clean, what's the use of checking the files? Why don't we both look around and see what the people say? They can fill in the official files of this case, but they can't block everyone's mouths."

Jian Chengdao: "What's the use of just listening to the people? Without definite evidence, how can we explain it when we return to the capital? When Zhongcheng asked, he said that the people felt injustice but there was no flaw? If you reply to Zhongcheng like this, I'm afraid that it will be added to another account in the future."

Fang Ping said: "What do you mean? Didn't Zhongcheng say that we just come and check it, no matter what the result is?"

Jian Cheng shook his head repeatedly: "The case is completely unreliable from the paper. What else can Zhongcheng say? We think there is an injustice, so it is different. We must make some clues so that Zhongcheng can make decisions."

Fang Ping nodded and understood Jian Cheng's meaning. When Du Zhongxiao sent someone, he actually didn't dare to conclude that there was an injustice in the case, so he said that. It would be fine if the two of them could not find out anything. If they found out that there was an injustice, they should take the clues back and let Du Zhongxiao have a place to attack.

The two of them drank and ate meat. After discussing how to act in the past few days, they returned to the inn to rest.

In Jian Yuanwai's mansion, Jian Yuanwai sat in his seat and listened to the two people standing in front of him. These two people were from the Jian family and worked in the county government. Jian Zhongming was the guards. He was rotated a few years ago, and then he did it for a long time. The other Jian Xiong was split up and recruited in three years ago.

The guards are the top officials in the county government office. Ye County is too big, and there are now three people. Jian Zhongming is in charge of the prison. The hand-dividing means the division of the matter. The things they do are very complicated, mainly clerks and officials.

Jian Zhongming said: "Mr. In the county government today, a person from the Beijing Censorate came to the county government office. He said that someone complained or the case of the Bai family. The man checked the case files for one day in the county, but nothing was found. This case was first sued to the state, and the people from the state came to investigate. He then sued to the Transport Department, and sent someone to the Tixing to investigate. Unexpectedly, the little devil of the Bai family still did not give up and actually went to the capital to sue the Censorate."

Jian Guanwai frowned after hearing this: "It's the first time I heard that the people from the Censorate still investigated the case. Didn't they all belong to Dali Temple?"

Jian Zhongming said: "The chief of the Censorate is also a magistrate of the Procuratorate. He is in charge of any complaints that the Dengwen Gu Yuan and the Dengwen Procuratorate do not accept. Moreover, the Censorate originally had his own prison, which also handled the criminal prison."

Mr. Jian was not interested in what the government offices in the capital did, and just asked: "The Censorate came to investigate. Is this matter dangerous?"

Jian Zhongming said: "All kinds of documents have been done without loopholes, and they can't find out the documents. Now I'm afraid they are not just here to check the documents, but to check other things. What happened to Zhang's bookstore in the past six months? They were given money to do things at that time. After a long time, don't show any flaws. And those who were doing things at that time should also comfort them, and it's best to send them to other places."

Jian Guanwai nodded and said, "I didn't expect this to be so annoying. I felt soft-hearted at that time. If I didn't kill Bai Zhengran, there would be nothing wrong!"

Jian Zhongming said: "How do you say this by the official? The surrounding rivers are basically occupied by people. There is no suitable place to open a factory except the Bai family. If this factory is not opened, I think the official is unwilling to accept it."

Jian Yuanwai said: "That's true. It's just that when he was doing things, he didn't expect it to be so troublesome! He just thought about it, but he just killed someone and took over his land, and didn't think too much about it. It's a pity that he didn't kill the little devil of the Bai family at that time, which made him cause so many troubles!"

Jian Xiong said: "It's time to come, and it's useless to say more. The most important thing now is to comfort everyone, keep your mouth tight, and don't say things that shouldn't be said. If you get the news from the Censorate, send someone to check it again. If you don't say it or not, just these few troubles, the people who worked together may not be willing. The outsider, the factory that is opened on both sides has made money, so I'd better take some money to comfort the people again."

After hearing this, Jian Guanwai shook his head repeatedly: "When he was doing things, he had given money. How could money be so easy to make? After taking my money, of course he had to do things for me! You just keep guarding the yamen and keep watching the people from the Censorate. I will make the decision on the outside!"

Jian Zhongming said: "Prince, this is an extraordinary time. You can't bear to give up money! Jian Xiong is right, it really doesn't work. Take out some money to soothe people's hearts and make them cautious in their words and things."

When Jian Man Wai heard this, he looked unhappy. The money was earned by himself with all his heart, so how could he give it to others like this? However, these two people, working in the yamen, have a good status in the Jian family, and they have to listen, so they have to reluctantly agree.

After explaining everything clearly, Jian Zhongming said: "Mr., this matter cannot be delayed. The first is to give Zhang Family Shop some money to make them tighter and not leak the news. Another family servant who was involved in this matter at that time told me carefully that it would be best to send it to other places to do things and not get news from others. As long as you keep these two things in hand, the people from the Censorate will just go to Ye County for a walk."

Jian Yuanwai agreed and saw that it was getting late and sent the two out of the house.

When he returned to the mansion, Jian Wai stood with his hands behind his back and didn't speak for a long time. Since he got the Bai family's land, he spent a lot of money to open a factory. He finally started to make money, but he didn't expect someone to cause trouble again. Sometimes Jian Wai really wanted to grit his teeth and get rid of all the people who came to investigate, and he finished it all. However, the people who came to investigate were either the road-level punishment or the Beijing Censorate, and they really didn't have the courage.

After thinking about it, Jian Guanwai ordered the people around him: "Looking at autumn, it will soon be cold. He ordered Ma Qing to go to the coal mine in the south, transport some coal to the house, and leave tomorrow!"

The slaves on one side bowed and said they were out of the room. Ma Qing and others were old servants at home. They had participated in the conversation about the Bai family. It would be better to send them to other places after listening to Jian Xiong's words. If they were not allowed to stay in Ye County, the wind was heard by the people from the Censorate, which was a disaster.

As for the book shop Zhang family, Jian Yuanwai will not be able to stop the work for a while. Those who run book shops have family businesses, so it is not easy to buy them with money. If you have less money, you can’t afford it. If you spend too much money, you can’t bear it.

For the Bai family's land, Jian Yuanwai spent hundreds of thousands of yuan in the past six months, and with the investment in opening a factory, his family was not as wealthy as before.

After thinking about it, Jian Jian said: "I will send me a post to Zhang's house. I will ask Zhang Man Wai to drink at Zhiyuan Restaurant tomorrow. No matter what, I will tell Zhang Man Wai first, there will be no problem in his place."

A servant bowed and said, and went out of the room, took the post and went to Zhang's house.

Jian Guanwai sighed, feeling upset and irritable. Over the years, as the railway supervision company grew, the nearest Ye County station has developed rapidly. As several senior officials in Ye County, the Jian family also made some money. However, compared with those who opened factories a few years ago, the Jian family's money was still far behind. This year, I finally found the land of the Bai family and invited the expert Sang, the expert. Jian Wai thought about making a big profit. However, Bai Zhengran didn't want to sell the land at all, so she had to go for a long time.

In the spring, due to a drought, Bai Zhengran, who had made some money in recent years, decided to buy a water pump. His family farmed, and vegetables were different from grain, so it was impossible to lack water, so it was much more convenient to buy a water pump. Because of insufficient money, he borrowed money everywhere. Jian Manwei used means to lend him money. Later things were natural. As many people thought, Jian Manwei colluded with Zhang's bookstore and exchanged Bai Zhengran's loan notes.
