"This morning the caravan sent by Bada Trading Company, the largest trading house in our town, was also intercepted by horse bandits."
"I heard from the guards who came back that the group of horse bandits came out of nowhere and didn't leave their names, so the caravan managers had no choice but to report to the nearest official."
"Hopefully, we can take action to solve it!"
Lin Bin sat in the main seat and listened to their words casually.
Horse bandit?
Lin Bin frowned slightly. In his memory, there were no horse bandits in Platform County.
There are quite a few bandits. After all, this is an important traffic road, but they don't dare to act openly.
"Do you know the origins of those horse bandits?"
"this."
"Um,"
Just when Yang Yun and Jiang Ying were hesitating again.
But Wu Qingguang said:
"Sir, I know!"
Seeing this,
Lin Bin smiled softly, and then said:
"I wonder how Agent Wu found out?"
Wu Qingguang thought for a moment before slowly speaking:
"It's like this. Before Shange Town was governed by the adults, the group of horse bandits wanted to move into Shange Town. They seemed to be wanted by the county, so they fled here!"
"They approached the mayor and offered to deal with the Green Snake Gang in exchange for the opportunity to settle in Shange Town, but the mayor rejected them because he was concerned about their status as wanted criminals!"
Lin Bin nodded after listening to Wu Qingguang's words.
This Wu Qingguang is indeed a talented person!
Otherwise, just in the few days he has been in office, it would probably take a lot of time to know the origins of these horse bandits!
"Then do you know their strength and where they are hiding?"
"Sir, I don't know!"
Wu Qingguang shook his head and whispered to Lin Bin.
"Sir, in addition to the caravans passing by being robbed, the goods of the major trading houses in the town outside were robbed... Moreover, the daughter of the head of the Bada Trading Company was also intercepted by the group of horse bandits!"
"What?"
Lin Bin raised his forehead after hearing this.
"And the caravans whose goods were intercepted came again this morning and asked us when we would set out to suppress the bandits. I told them that the leader has not returned yet, and there is no way to order the suppression of the horse bandits."
"They went back after hearing this, but before leaving, they told me that if you don't do anything, they will report this matter to the county magistrate!"
"They say that all the policemen in Shange Town are just losers. If we don't have enough to eat, we have to go around and sue the adults..."
"hehe."
Lin Bin sneered after hearing this!
When the three of them heard Lin Bin's laughter, they lowered their heads several times in an instant!
Lin Bin's eyes moved slightly, he tapped the table with his fingers, and looked at the three people below.
Just when Lin Bin was thinking about why something happened when he just came back.
There must be someone behind the scenes!
Lin Bin kept checking in his mind who was behind the scenes.
The guard outside the door came in to report.
"Sir, someone wants to see you!"
Lin Bin asked:
"Who wants to see me?"
"It's the head of Bada Trading Company and the directors of other caravans. When they learned that the Lord was back, they wanted to ask the Lord if he had any ideas about surrendering the bandits. If not, they planned to go to the county seat..."
"Call them in first!"
After Lin Bin finished speaking, he asked the three people below to sit aside.
…
Lin Bin sat on the main seat with a calm expression.
Under Lin Bin’s gaze,
Five people walked in, following the guard who came in just now to report the news.
The five of them looked at Lin Bin constantly.
They wondered in their hearts, why is the person in charge so young?
At the same time, I felt a little helpless. Such a young head catcher might not have the strength to take back their goods from those horse bandits.
"What brought you here?"
Lin Bin asked with a look of confusion on his face.
The five people looked at each other when they heard Lin Bin's words, and then a rich-looking middle-aged man stood up and first bowed his hand to Lin Bin.
Then he said:
"Just now we learned that the head catcher has just returned, so we gathered together and wanted to ask the head catcher if he could order an order to go out of town to exterminate the horse bandits. If not, we will go to the county..."
"Are you sure it was the horse bandits who did it?"
Lin Bin asked pretending to be surprised.
"I'm afraid no one dares to intercept our goods on this road except them."
Behind the wealthy middle-aged man, a middle-aged man with a beard said.
"That's right, that's right. Please ask the head catcher to quickly give the order to wipe out all those horse bandits so that peace can be restored to Shange Town. Otherwise, no caravan will dare to transport goods to Shange Town in the future!"
Someone among them shouted loudly.
Hearing his words, Lin Bin glanced at him.
"Are you threatening me?"
After saying that, she stared at him hard, making him silent for a moment.
At this time, the wealthy middle-aged man stood up and spoke,
"Sir, it's not that we are threatening you, but that we lost the goods, which made us a little impatient, so..."
"I understand how you feel."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Lin Bin.
"But you also have to be considerate and considerate of us. You can't just say we are suppressing bandits and we will ignore everything."
"Do you know where the horse bandits are hiding now? Do you know the strength of the horse bandits? When you don't know anything, you have to let me take action."
"What if the police in our town go out rashly without understanding the situation and cause losses?"
After Lin Bin finished speaking, the five of them were silent for a while.
"Master Catcher, this has nothing to do with us. Since we have reported it to the police, and you now know that it was the group of horse bandits who did it, then the problems you mentioned should be solved by yourself. We only care about our goods. When can I come back!"
The middle-aged man with a beard said with a dissatisfied look on his face.
For this answer, Lin Bin could only
"hehe!"
Two words.
"I don't know why you are laughing!"
"I'm laughing at you for not knowing what's going on. Since you don't care about the life and death of us agents, then you can go back and wait for notification. I will notify you after I wipe out those horse bandits and find your goods."
"Huh, sir, what do you mean?"
"Is this your attitude towards doing things?"
"If this is your style of doing things, then we will go to the county."
When they heard Lin Bin's words, they became angry.
"Whatever you want!"
Lin Bin said it with an indifferent expression.
Seeing Lin Bin's attitude, some of them wanted to leave the room, but were stopped by the wealthy middle-aged man.
Then the rich middle-aged man stepped forward again and said respectfully to Lin Bin:
"Sir, this villain is Su Jingchang, the head of Bada Trading Company in the town."
"When the Lord was wiping out the Tiger Gang in the town, the villain was at the scene and knew that the Lord was extremely powerful."
Hearing Su Jingchang's compliment, Lin Bin smiled slightly and said slowly:
"I'm not as powerful as you say. You should go to the county and find someone from the county government to solve it!"
After saying that, Lin Bin looked like he was leaving.
"Hey, sir, let me apologize to you first."
"No one in the county knows about your reputation, and the night before yesterday... there is no one in the county government who is stronger than you, so this matter can only be solved by your intervention!"
After hearing Su Jingchang's words, the middle-aged man with a long beard who had just threatened Lin Bin also bent down and said to Lin Bin:
"Sir, I spoke too loudly just now, I hope you don't mind!"
Lin Bin grinned and looked at Su Jingchang in front of him with interest.
"Hahaha, don't be nervous, President Su. I just made a joke with you, don't take it seriously!"
"This group of horse bandits dare to appear in our territory of Shange Town, so I will definitely eliminate them. Don't worry, everyone!"
After Lin Bin finished speaking, he made a reassuring gesture to them.
Seeing Lin Bin say such words, they felt relieved.
Before coming, they also inquired about Lin Bin's strength and record.
Su Jingchang was right. If Lin Bin didn't take action, no one would be able to wipe out the group of horse bandits.
As for finding an eighth-grade martial artist to take action, the price would be too high.
Su Jingchang asked again,
"I wonder when your lord will set out to suppress the bandits?"
"This is it!"
Lin Bin rubbed his fingers at him.
"I'm really powerless. As you know, I have only been the head catcher for a few days. Although my strength is extraordinary, the group of horse bandits is so large that it is impossible for me to do it alone."
"But there is really no money in the patrol room. There is no silver reward and no money pension. Under such circumstances, how dare the police officers to fight against the horse bandits? Don't you think so!"
"What do you mean, sir?"
Su Jingchang asked with a slight frown.
"What I mean is that the horse bandits must be suppressed, but I hope you will sponsor some money, so that my people will fight against those horse bandits."
At this moment, the five people also understood what Lin Bin meant.
That is, give me money!
"But, sir, our monthly taxes and offerings are not less, why do we still..."
Su Jingchang said slowly.
"Hmph, if you want to say that, then whoever you give your offerings to will help you solve it! Anyway, I haven't accepted your offerings!"
After saying that, Lin Bin once again looked like he was leaving.
Seeing this, Su Jingchang touched his forehead and said softly to Lin Bin:
"Sir, don't leave. We didn't say we wouldn't give it."
Seeing how knowledgeable he was, Lin Bin smiled and nodded to him.
"Sir, how much silver do you think is appropriate?"
Su Jingchang approached Lin Bin and whispered to him.
"100 taels per family is not excessive!"
"Okay, just 100 taels!"
Su Jingchang thought for a moment and then said.
After he made his decision, no one else had any objections.
Obviously,
He has the highest status among the five!
"Okay, Mr. Su is very generous!"
Lin Bin said slowly.
After confirming that the money will be handed over to Lin Bin tonight,
Lin Bin then asked a few people to leave.
Several people were still muttering as they left,
Why are all these officials like this!
But Su Jingchang stayed.
"Why, does President Su have anything else to say?"
"That's right, my daughter..."
"I know, you want me to rescue your daughter and make sure she is unharmed!"
Lin Bin emphasized the last four words.
"yes."
