Chapter 061: The Magistrate Is Missing
Without waiting for Li Wenjun to ask, Sun Baicao took the initiative to talk about another thing.
"Wenjun, I'm so sorry. Please help me find the news about Lingzun Lingtang, but there has been no news until now. The missing person notice has not been printed and no one has been asked, but the effect is not very obvious." Sun Baicao said.
Li Wenjun looked dim and asked, "Uncle Sun, is there no news at all?"
Sun Baicao shook his head and said, "There are more than 300 people in the county town who often go out to trade in the world. I have visited each of them, and they have told me clearly that there is no news."
"Isn't something wrong?" Li Wenjun muttered.
Sun Baicao hurriedly said, "Wenjun, don't worry first. Looking for a few people without any clues is like looking for a needle in a haystack. The possibility of finding it in a short time is very small. However, auspicious people have their own appearance. As long as we don't give up and continue to search, we will find Lingzun Lingtang and your brothers and sisters one day."
Li Wenjun nodded and said, "I escaped from the arid area. That kind of suffering is really not something that people can bear. I hope it is really like you said, auspicious people will have their own appearance."
"It will definitely happen." The Sun and his son comforted each other in unison.
"I hope." Li Wenjun forced a smile and said, "By the way, Uncle Sun, I have one more thing to ask you."
Sun Baicao hurriedly said, "You said."
Li Wenjun said: "I would like to ask my uncle to pay attention to the herbs of the century-old age. If there are herbs with longer ages, it would be better. Please tell me a message. As long as the herbs are authentic, have sufficient years, good quality, and easy to discuss in terms of price, the price I offer will only be higher than the market price, not lower than the market price."
Sun Baicao nodded. Last year, Li Wenjun asked him to find herbs from the century-old age, but Zhang Tao, who was also a herb collector, took out one, but asked Wu Xuemei, the daughter of the county magistrate, to force him to buy it. Sun Baicao didn't know what happened later, but he didn't know that Li Wenjun snatched the wild mountain spirit again.
Sun Jianing interrupted: "Brother Wenjun, I found that there seems to be nothing that you ask us for.
Li Wenjun smiled and said, "If it's easy, I'll do it easily. I dare to bother Uncle Sun. Jianing, do you have time now? If you have time, go with me to do something."
Sun Jianing stayed in the medicinal shop all day long and was already bored. When he heard that he had the opportunity to go out, he hurriedly said, "Okay. Brother Wenjun, where are you going to take me? What's the matter?"
"Let's go to the county government. Brother, I did a big shocking thing and let you be a witness." Li Wenjun smiled.
"What a big deal? Did Brother Wenjun, you found my sister-in-law?" Sun Jianing's question was a bit nonsensical.
Li Wenjun smiled and said, "It's not that I want to marry a wife, but that I killed someone. Jiangyang thief, Wang Yonggui, do you still remember? He died, I killed him."
When the Sun and his son heard this, they showed incredible expressions, widened their eyes and looked at Li Wenjun.
"Wenjun, this matter is no joke." Sun Baicao said.
"It's not a joke. Uncle Sun, it's almost dark, so close the door quickly. After closing the door, you and Jianing accompany me to the county government office and ask for a meeting with the county magistrate." Li Wenjun said.
Sun Baicao was skeptical. If Li Wenjun had not given him a calm impression, he might have raised questions. However, no matter how suspicious he was, Sun Baicao would still close the store with Sun Jianing as Li Wenjun's instructions.
In just about a cup of tea, the Sun and his son worked together to close the medicinal shop and locked it. Then, the two accompanied Li Wenjun and walked towards the county government.
Sun Jianing was very excited and was about to shout for Li Wenjun at the top of his voice. Sun Baicao grabbed him and shook his head at him. Sun Baicao had his considerations and it was easy to shout people to watch the fun, but everyone surrounded him. If the head Li Wenjun took out was not Wang Yonggui's, Li Wenjun would have become a joke.
Once it is not Wang Yonggui, there is a very realistic problem: killing people is illegal. In the eyes of the public, the head was taken out. It was not Wang Yonggui's, which means that Li Wenjun killed others and violated the law of the king. The county magistrate needs to investigate it in depth, and the problem is too big.
If outsiders are not present, he can still deal with it. If more bribes to the county magistrate, the matter may be missed. If many outsiders watch, there will be no room for them to deal with it.
Li Wenjun ignored Sun Baicao's small actions. Whether he killed Wang Yonggui, whether it was promoted now or waiting for a few days, the effect would not be much worse, that is, it would take one or two days tonight.
The county town of Sanshan County was not very big, and Li Wenjun and his group rushed outside the county government without much effort.
It was already a little dark, and lanterns were lit at the county yamen gate. Two yamen with knives stood under the lanterns on duty respectively.
Li Wenjun was about to step forward and talk to the Yachao. Sun Baicao grabbed him and whispered: "Wenjun, you are the boss, you have a status, so you must be reserved. Let me do this rough work."
"That's thank you for your hard work, Uncle Sun." Li Wenjun stopped. He didn't think his identity was higher than Sun Baicao, but he asked himself that his experience in dealing with people in the government was far inferior to Sun Baicao. He just wanted to do things smoothly, and did not want to create trouble.
Sun Baicao walked towards one of the yamen, who scolded him, "Hey, what are you doing? The county yamen is not allowed to break freely in the important areas."
Sun Baicao bowed and said, "This official, I am the one who lives by collecting herbs. Before the Spring Festival, I just opened a medicinal material shop. At that time, I came to the county government to complete the procedures. There was Li Wenjun, the owner of our medicinal material shop, and next to it was my dog, Sun Jianing. Today we have something to ask for the county magistrate, and I would like to inform you."
"Didn't you see when this is now? The great master has worked hard for a day and needs to rest. Besides, he has a noble status, so it is not something that any cat or dog can see." The yachae grinned.
"I understand, understand." Sun Baicao smiled and took out a string of copper coins and put them in the hand of the Yachao. "I don't want to respect you. Please ask the official to have a pot of good tea."
The Yamashi weighed the more than a hundred copper coins, a smile appeared on his face, and said, "Okay, wait, I'll go and report now."
