The young man gritted his teeth unwillingly and replied: "My name is Wu Shiluo."
Wu Shiluo? !
Many fish looked intently at the embarrassed young man in front of them. He was thin, but taller than ordinary people. There were also some brown pockmarks on his cheeks, which did not affect his appearance. On the contrary, it neutralized the sharp features of the young man and gave him more weight. simple.
During the Qin Shihuang period, there were two most famous merchants in the country, the widow Qing from Bashu and the Wushi Luo from the north.
Many fish were in a daze for a moment. Could it be that their actions to support commercial development caused such a big butterfly effect? Even the Wushiluo in the north came to Bashu?
Ling Shi didn't know what the many fishes were thinking, nor did he know what the future of the young man in front of him could be. He just imposed punishments in accordance with the laws, and then handed over his hands to the many fishes and asked for their opinions.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the many fishes directly above. Even Wu Shiluo, who had his head lowered, couldn't help but raise his head to look at the young Lord of Bashu.
Han Fei: "The criminals and ministers are not good people. They were all moved to Bashu because of their crimes. How can their descendants be law-abiding people?"
In Han Fei's mind, the descendants of guilty people are also guilty and cannot be taught well.
"And these barbarians." Han Fei pointed at the silent young man and said sternly: "They always have the heart of a bird or beast, waiting for the opportunity to bite their master. Female monarch, please don't be soft-hearted."
The shepherd boys and his family members knelt down and cried for mercy.
"Lord Lieutenant, you are magnanimous and treat us kindly, but we are obsessed with children and make mistakes. Please give us another chance!"
"Please, Lord Lieutenant!"
After many fish pondered for a moment, they said: "Let Shi judge the case, and there is good evidence. However, if the water is clear, there will be no big fish. Why not open the net to one side, exempt them from the punishment of tattooing, and punish them to do some heavy work."
Ling Shi just thought that the Lord Lieutenant was kind-hearted, so he decided to listen to the Lord's advice and let a few young shepherd boys go. They were only punished with more difficult and tiring work, and no words were carved on their faces that were darkened by the sun.
As for the young culprit, Wu Shiluo, many fish decided to take him back to the county magistrate's house for disposal.
Although Ling Shi and Han Fei didn't understand why the county lieutenant looked at this young man with such eyes, they would not object.
Amidst the kowtows of the shepherd boys, many fish and others returned to the governor's house.
Wu Shiluo kept his gaze steady along the way, neither humble nor arrogant, but as soon as he arrived at the office of the Sheriff's Mansion, he knelt down on the ground and told the story of his origins.
"Reporting to Nu Jun, I am a poor child from the Wuzhi tribe outside the country. My parents died when I was young. I am dependent on my younger brother and make a living by herding cattle."
Many fish motioned for him to stand up and said, but the boy did not refuse.
"The year before last, there was a severe drought outside the country, and the pastures withered. The cattle and horses did not have enough pasture to cover their bellies, and they became thinner and thinner. As a result, the tribal chief vented his anger on the two brothers. He beat us every once in a while and deprived us of food and drink."
When he thought of this, Wu Shiluo's eyes turned red and his teeth itched with hatred.
Han Fei was not surprised, but it was common for farmers to suffer from hunger, silk reelers to be naked, and charcoal sellers to suffer from cold.
Wu Shiluo: "My younger brother is young and has been in poor health since he was a child. He became sleepy after two days of starvation, so I did nothing but drive the cattle and sheep to a deserted place, slaughtered one of them, and ate it with my younger brother. Roast lamb."
Han Fei sneered: "It turns out he is a habitual offender."
Wu Shiluo did not feel that this behavior was shameful: "I can't live anymore, why should I guard the cattle and sheep without eating them? There are many cattle and sheep in the tribe leader's house, but he can't bear to part with a bowl of broth."
Han Fei couldn't stand such lawless behavior: "So you ran away?"
Wu Shiluo frowned and said, "If you don't run away, why don't you stay where you are and let the clan leader beat him to death? Not only did I run away with my brother, I also drove away the herd of cattle and sheep!"
Wu Shiluo quite resented the failure of iron to make steel: "I have told the shepherd boys a long time ago that after changing the money and getting sick, they will run away. But they are afraid of Qin Lu, and they think there is no better place in the world than Bashu! "
Many fish saw him looking angry at being implicated by an innocent fool, and asked with interest: "Why don't you take your brother and run away? The shepherd boys are willing to take the blame for you. If you don't admit it, we won't give in." "
After Wu Shiluo was silent for a long time, he said: "I just want to see if Bashu is really as good as they say? Even if they die, they just want to die in Bashu."
"The tribal leader will whip his slaves and sheep to make them obedient. I want to see how the Lord Lieutenant makes his subordinates so obedient?"
Many Fishes: "Then what did you see?"
Wu Shiluo shook his head in confusion: "I didn't see anything."
Duoyu said: "You instigated the shepherd boy to break the law, and you should be severely punished. But since you are from outside the country and are not familiar with Qin's laws, I will fine you 2,000 thousand. After paying this fine, you can regain your freedom."
Wu Shiluo was unconvinced: "That cow is an old cow, and its market price is only 1,000,000. Why should I be fined 2,000?"
Many fish secretly laughed. This guy has only been here for a short time and he has found out the price so clearly. Could it be that he has been eyeing the cattle and sheep for a long time?
Many fish pretended to be displeased and said: "If it is compensation at the original price, is it still called a fine?"
People under the eaves have to bow their heads.
Wu Shiluo accepted the fine and went out for a walk. Having passed the clear road in front of the Lord Commander, he can do many tasks that cannot be done.
Although 2,000 thousand was not easy to earn, Wu Shiluo didn't take it to heart.
"Brother, why don't we pay the fine and leave here quickly." Wu Shiluo's younger brother is afraid of Bashu. This place is so beautiful, it's like poison wrapped in sweet honey, and it's easy for people to seal their throats with a sword.
Wu Shiluo counted his family property. He took away three cows and ten sheep, but after entering the pass, the price was reduced and they were sold for only more than 20,000 yuan.
After escaping all the way, plus taking care of things when entering customs, I still have nearly 10,000 yuan left. It doesn't hurt to pay a fine. But Wu Shiluo had a hunch that he would have greater opportunities in Bashu!
"Brother, we are fleeing from the north to the south. Do you think there is a more magical world than Bashu?" Wu Shiluo's eyes sparkled in the dark night.
"No, but the county captain here is not easy to mess with! She is more powerful than all the Qin officials we have seen!" My brother really just wants to find a remote mountain village, marry a wife and have children, and live his life peacefully .
Wu Shiluo: "Brother, we don't have the Qin household registration, who dares to take us in? As for Zhao and Qi, those places are further away from us! Brother, if you want to live a good life, you must become a Qin official! But according to our status , If you want to become an official, you have to use money to pave the way, and you need to find the right person!"
Wu Shiluo looked at the majestic County Sheriff's Mansion and said firmly: "Your Excellency, the Commander-in-Chief is our nobleman!"
