But he heard Mr. Wang say: "Master Hou, I am just a pawn driven by others. How can I know the details? Although I have seen the leader of the society, I have never seen his face, because at that time When he asked me to meet, there was a screen between us, so I could only tell him that his accent was from Henan!"
Liu Haojia laughed when he heard this and said, "If you say it, it's the same as if you didn't say it!"
Mr. Wang said: "This is all I know!"
Liu Haojia snorted and said, "I'm too lazy to interrogate you now. Someone will ask you later. Think more about it yourself!"
At this moment, there was another burst of cheers outside the door. Liu Haojia looked up and saw several soldiers escorting a person in. Then the soldier shouted: "Commander, the man named Liu Changguo has been caught!"
Liu Haojia turned to Mr. Wang and said, "How's it going? Just now, I said he couldn't run away, but he was caught right away!"
After speaking, he turned back to the soldiers and said, "Well done! How did you catch him?"
The soldier smiled and said, "This guy is really cunning! He found people's clothes from somewhere and put them on him. Then he climbed over the wall and went to other people's homes. He said that he was an ordinary person and prayed for protection! He even bribed the head of the household with money. ! But I didn’t expect that the relative of the head of the household had fought a lawsuit with someone, and he lost miserably! So he was recognized as soon as he entered the yard and was kicked out of the house! "
Liu Haojia laughed and said, "It's not that I won't retaliate, it's just that the time has not come yet! Keep them all in custody!"
Then Liu Haojia used the Hegang General Forum as his base camp. The troops under his command seriously raided Tianjin twice and arrested many people! Especially those who took advantage of the situation, almost none of them ran away!
But just in the evening, when Liu Haojia was about to return to the mansion, a group of people came to the door! When the soldiers saw this group of people, they did not dare to stop them without authorization, but they still reported them.
Liu Haojia also looked strange after hearing the report, but he still said: "Let them all come up!"
As a result, all the people who walked into the hall were people in official uniforms. Officials headed by the county magistrate walked in in unison! In other words, except for Magistrate Sun who is still in the prison, all local officials in Tianjin have appeared in front of Liu Haojia!
When they saw Liu Haojia, they first saluted and paid homage, and then they threw all kinds of nice words at her for free, which made Liu Haojia extremely annoyed! He raised his hand to stop everyone and said, "How did you find this place?"
The county magistrate bowed and said: "Master Marquis, we are all officials, so we only need to ask the soldiers cleaning up the mob on the street to know the situation, so it is not difficult to find the Marquis!"
Liu Haojia nodded and said, "Then what do you want from me?"
The county magistrate said loudly: "Of course I will help the Marquis clean up the mob and those who took advantage of the situation to rob!"
Liu Haojia spread his hands and said, "These things have been done by now, I don't need your help!"
The county magistrate and others looked very ugly when they heard this, but seeing that Liu Haojia didn't look angry, they said tentatively: "There are always some chores that we can do. For example, interrogating these mobs is our strength. It’s also my job!”
Liu Haojia originally had some intentions of teasing them, but seeing their smiling faces made him feel bored! So he simply leaned on the chair and said: "When I sent people to contact you, you all resisted every one of you! When the mob took to the streets to besiege my property, you also hid! Now I have put everything aside. After finishing the work, you have to come out to share the credit. Do you think I am a fool?"
Just as the county magistrate and others were about to speak, Liu Haojia slapped the table and said, "That's enough! I really don't want to pay attention to you, just wait and see!"
People who can be the county magistrate in Tianjin must have some connections. The county magistrate actually said: "Also, it is convenient for others, and it is convenient for yourself! What's more, we are just looking at the scenery. This is also common in officialdom. And why bother pursuing and fighting!"
Liu Haojia knew that this man relied on his status as a civil servant and had connections behind him, so he felt that he could not do anything to him. But he didn't know how determined Liu Haojia was to clean up Tianjin! So Liu Haojia directly
Said: "After taking him, I want to see who can save you!"
The county magistrate was shocked when he heard this, turned around and ran away! But he couldn't run as fast as the soldiers, and he was directly caught by two soldiers! When other officials at all levels looked at the county magistrate, they knew that there was no hope of taking credit this time, and they might even be unlucky, so they immediately knelt down and begged for mercy!
Liu Haojia waved his hand casually and said: "Take all these people into prison and wait for processing!"
Now all the people who were kneeling cried loudly, saying that they were wronged! They all love the Marquis, but they are forced by the superior officials, so they have no choice but to do so!
But the soldiers were not sure of their explanation, so they grabbed them one by one and dragged them away! The most outrageous thing was that Liu Haojia actually saw a line of water on the ground! It seems that the timid one was so frightened that he became incontinent! It made him feel tired for a while! I don’t know how these people became officials!
In fact, Liu Haojia had tried to win over these Tianjin officials a long time ago, but the people who could become officials near Gyeonggi had some connections and ignored his solicitation at all! However, they did not hesitate to make a fortune when Liu Haojia opened the sea! So Liu Haojia had already thought of cleaning them up!
Now that such a big thing has happened in Tianjin, these people are squatting at home and actually want to come here to take some credit from Liu Haojia. This is not like hitting the muzzle of the gun and being captured directly! These people cannot escape from at least one dereliction of duty! Use this excuse to clean them out and install a few of your own people. It is much more convenient for him to act in Tianjin County.
Liu Haojia then ordered the entire Tianjin County not to enter or leave, and began to prepare to complete the case. The first people to be tried are naturally the ordinary people.
It’s easy to deal with these people! They were given a scolding and fined five hundred coins, and then they were sent back to let them know not to get involved in anything! Those common people knew that they were being used to get involved in the mob, so they were willing to be fined!
As for those who were bribed, not only the money must be returned, but also three times the fine plus 500 cash, so that they know that some money cannot be taken! These people themselves are afraid of the government, and they know that they are in the wrong, so they can't say anything.
Then there was the cunning woman who refused to admit her mistake. The soldiers who interrogated them told them directly that this time the White Lotus Sect was preparing to start an uprising in Tianjin, and you were involved in it. I'm afraid it would be enough to warrant beheading. !
