Chapter 28
"Fifth brother, go find Wang Laogui without a knife, why do you still take the bacon and chicken?"
Xiaoliu carried the few bacon and a bag of eggs that Luo Feng had just brought back, and followed his brother unhappily.
"We have to be reasonable in doing things, but if we don't make sense, we can't stand it. This time, Fu San has made mistakes first. We are going to the Wang family now to ask them to release them. Even if this thing is an apology."
In addition to this little thing, Luo Feng also contained several sprigs of copper coins in his bag.
Wangzhuang is not far from Nanshan Village, and is far away from each other by a Nanxi River, just four or five miles apart. With Xiaoliu leading the way, Luo Feng quickly found Wang Laogui's house.
Wang Laogui's house is very big. To the east of Wangzhuang Village, his house is deep and high courtyard. The loess is rammed with a wall of meter high. You can vaguely see dozens of houses inside, which seem to be a large mansion composed of several courtyards.
There were several Zhuang Dings holding sticks standing at the door in broad daylight, and several vicious dogs were lying on the side to bask in the sun.
"I'll bother me, and I'll inform you of the official Wang for me, and said that Luo Wu from Nanshan Village had something to ask for a meeting."
The monks at the door were basking in the sun lazily, but they just looked up and then continued to chat.
Luo Feng smiled slightly, but he was not angry.
He took out a small string of copper coins from his body, which happened to be ten, and handed them over.
"Brother, I'll do my best!"
When the man saw the copper coins, his eyes lit up and he looked at Luo Feng seriously with surprise.
"Luo Wu, Nanshan Village? What is your relationship with Luo Xiaoliu?" He said to Xiaoliu.
"That's my brother."
This turn of reversal was as expected and puzzled as he was, who didn't know the conditions of Luo Xiaoliu's family? When was the fifth brother so generous?
However, for the sake of this string of money, he nodded politely, "Oh, it turns out to be Brother Luo Wu, OK, wait here, brother, go in and inform the official."
After a while, the guy came back, "Brother Luo Wu, I disturbed the official's nap for you and was scolded. After all, I explained it to you. You can go in."
"Let your brother go." Luo Feng bowed.
Entering the big house through the side door, Xiao Liu was dissatisfied, "Brother, why did you give that guy ten copper coins? That guy is just a guardian dog. He usually likes to mess with me and Du Da and others, and it's very bad."
‘Of course I know, but why do we have to be as knowledgeable as them? Remember, we are here to save Du Da and the others, not to be angry with these people.’
Xiao Liu was also very familiar with the Wang family and soon came to the front of the main hall with Luo Feng.
As a result, I met another person at the door and scolded Xiaoliu, "Luo Liu, you are blind. This front yard hall can also come in with your cowherd? Do you want to be whipped with your two brothers?"
Luo Feng walked over Xiaoliu and looked at the guy a few times. Seeing that he was obviously a servant or something in his clothes, he might be a lowly slave.
"In the Lower Luo Wu, the Brother of Luo Liu."
“So what?”
"I am now a member of the magistrate of Zhangqiu County, who is the chief constable of the yamen fast class. I came to visit Wang Daren today. I didn't expect to meet a vicious dog and a ferocious person here."
The man was secretly surprised when he heard Luo Feng report his identity. He was indeed just a slave of the Wang family. He thought he could bully Luo Liu, who was herding cattle, but he didn't expect that his brother was actually a yamen to be a constable.
"Why don't you go and report to the King of Kings!" Luo Feng shouted. He was naturally too lazy to look at such a slave.
The man left in disappointment.
After a while, the man went back, but he was much more polite and came over to say that the King of Kings would invite him.
He followed him into the hall, and the servant reported, "The great official, the brothers Luo Wulang of Nanshan Village have arrived."
In the hall, a slightly fat old man sat behind a table, drinking tea leisurely. He listened to the servants' reports, but he didn't raise his head.
Luo Feng stood in the hall with a hand, "Luo Wu from Nanshan Village, met Wang Daguanren."
"You are the brother of the Hermit Luo Liu? I heard that he has been a little bit of the limelight recently and has become a constable?" Wang Laogui was still very rude in his words.
Luo Feng smiled. He knew that Wang Laogui had his confidence. Although he was just a landlord in the countryside, the Sui Dynasty had always had an imperial power that was not under the county. The imperial court could directly manage the county town. Although there were county officials like village heads in the village, in fact, village heads were just representatives of the big clans and rich men in the village.
Those who truly hold real power in the village are the big clans and rich men in each village.
For example, Wang Lichang in Nanshan is a rich landlord and is also the nephew of Wang Laogui.
A young detective is really not worthy of his attention.
"I accidentally captured a few bandits, and I was favored and appreciated by the county magistrate and county magistrate. I was promoted to be a constable. In fact, it was all luck." Luo Feng bowed. "I came today. First, I wanted to visit the respected official of Ben Reed. Second, I had something to ask for. I came in a hurry and couldn't prepare any generous gifts. I hope I could accept it with a smile."
Luo Feng waved and asked Xiao Liu to deliver the bacon and eggs.
After the case, Wang Laogui unexpectedly put down the teacup in his hand, looked up at Luo Feng carefully. This young man, he originally thought he was a country man who was similar to Luo Xiaoliu, but he was lucky enough to be a constable, but now he heard what he said, it was very surprising.
This deliberately put on a noble attitude, but Luo Wu's attitude of dealing with it was very good, and it was extremely rare to be neither humble nor arrogant.
It's a character, not just luck.
"I came here as soon as I came, what else do I bring? They are all from the villagers."
Wang Laogui's attitude changed.
"Grand official."
"Call me and say ok, Uncle Wang."
"Then I'll call you Uncle Wang, that's it. I heard from my sixth brother that his friend Fu San stole a sheep from you for a few days at home."
"It's something."
"Uncle Wang, this matter is wrong for Fu San. No matter how you say it, it is for stealing. It is a matter of violating the law of the king. But he is young and ignorant, and he is dedicated to helping his brothers. My sixth brother and Du Da and Fu San are both very good at playing, so I come here, wanting to ask the high-ranking officials to forgive these ignorant children. As for the sheep you lost, I will compensate them for the money. How much is it? You tell me, I will compensate according to the price."
Wang Laogui laughed a few times, "A sheep is nothing. Although I, Wang Wu, are not rich, but have a little bit of money. A sheep is just a drop in me. But I have always hated thieves the most, especially the thief. Fu San is the shepherd who herds sheep in my family, and he is also the nephew of a concubine. When he saw that his family was poor, he asked him to come over to herd sheep and earn some food. I didn't expect that he would steal my sheep."
"Sheep are trivial matters, but the thief should be punished. Otherwise, how could there be any rules in the future?"
"The great official said it naturally, but now the great official arrested and beat them. I think there was a lesson, and everyone else saw it, so it's all right, so let's go, what do you think?"
"You said forget it, forget it?" Wang Laogui asked with a smile.
Luo Feng also smiled unceremoniously, "Master, I am the county constable now, and I am responsible for the thief arrest. Since you find a thief at home, you should naturally sue the official and the yamen will take over. Otherwise, how about I go to the county government to report a case for you?"
When Wang Laogui heard this, the smile on his face disappeared.
Even if he didn't take Luo Feng, the detective, seriously, he actually soon came to interfere in his affairs, especially theft cases. If the constables come to the home to investigate the case, and once the case is established, it will be equivalent to attracting a large group of flies. It will be difficult to deal with without any effort at that time.
He had a deeper impression of Luo Feng. Although this young man was young, he was very old.
"Hahaha, Xiaowu, see where you said this. Since you are here today, then I have to save face as a new constable. Take the person back."
Luo Feng kept the money, but Wang Laogui asked him to take it away.
"I can't ask you to pay this money. There is no reason. Take the people away. But in the future, the third and third masters of the country will not have to come to my house to shed pigs and sheep. Since you have become a constable, your brother will naturally not have to come to my house to herd cattle and earn the second dou of millet valley in the future, right?"
Luo Feng smiled slightly. The result was quite good. He took back the money without hesitation. How many cents of money would be money.
"Then I will thank Uncle Wang, and I will thank Uncle Wang on behalf of Du Dahe Fusan, and say goodbye!"
"Let's go slowly, don't let go!"
After leaving the big house, Xiao Wu was still carrying the bacon and the bag of eggs, "Brother, that's all?"
"Of course, that's fine, what about?"
"Brother, you are so awesome."
Luo Feng shook his head helplessly. What a great deal, it was because he was no longer the Luo Wu of the past. He is now related to the county magistrate, so he is still a constable. Otherwise, who would really treat him as a scallion?
