Chapter 85 I want a mink

When Qin Chuan led twenty-five horses to line up on the ridges south of Jingyou Town, the lonely town seemed to be in a panic.

Some ran north with tattered bags and shriveled grain bags, and some ran to the town entrance with swords, guns and sticks while scolding the manager of the village.

The difference between Jingyou and Loufan is that there are simple fortifications built on both sides of the town, with low walls, trenches and horse-repellent intersecting, which looks messy and disorganized, but without any loopholes.

The Du family members who had never joined the military and martial arts clan, these fortifications did not seem to be created by the Du family. They should have been created by Zhao Wu and Liao Sanqin after they arrived.

When a bitter north wind mixed with mud and sand shaved on his face like a knife, and then passed by his ears, Qin Chuan remembered Wang Changling's song "Join the Fourth of the Army".

"The yellow sand has worn golden armor for hundreds of battles, and will never return until Loulan is destroyed."

One day, he will immediately stand on the bank of the Liao River and never return until it breaks down Jianzhou.

Today he didn't want to get Jingyou, but just came to get some money and food.

After scattering the five subordinates to the nearby ridge to guard the ridge, Qin Chuan led twenty cavalry slowly down the ridge and came a hundred steps away from the entrance of Jingyou Town.

Hundreds of brave people in the town were as strong as facing a great enemy, and they were very nervous.

When he got closer, Qin Chuan shouted: "I am Qin Chuan, the inspector of Loufan, and I am ordered to come and investigate the bandits. Please ask the owner of Du Yingguang to speak."

After the town's entrance, the village heroes looked at each other for a moment, a man in his thirties looked like a brocade robe replied loudly: "This place is Jingyou Town, not within the jurisdiction of the Qin Inspection Commission. If the Qin Inspection Commission wants to investigate bandits, please return to your Loufan Town."

Qin Chuan was not angry, and only took off a head from the back of the saddle and said, "One hour ago, a group of thieves in Jingyou Town colluded with rebels to plunder the villagers of our Loufan Town. Five people have been killed by this inspector and eight people have been captured alive. This inspector suspected that Jingyou Town and Dujiazhuang were hiding rebels and colluding with the thieves. I came here to investigate. Please ask the owner of Du to speak quickly."

After saying that, he shook his hand and threw the head far away.

His subordinates also threw the other four heads over.

There was a commotion at the entrance of the town, and the man in the brocade robe shouted angrily for a few times before calming down.

Soon, a knight rushed out and picked up the heads.

The man in the brocade robe looked carefully and his face changed suddenly: "Do you dare to kill my Du family?"

That was Du Chenggui's head.

Qin Chuan smiled faintly: "The responsibility of this inspector is, let alone a mere Du family member, even if the owner of Du dares to collude with bandits and hides the rebels, I will kill him."

"You...you wait for me."

The man in the brocade robe had a blue face, and he twisted his body and ran in.

Qin Chuan was not in a hurry, so he took out a pipe, put it in the tobacco, took out a fire stick, blew it on, and lit it on the tobacco.

This thing was seized from Guo Yan’s Shentai Peak Village. There were several kilograms of tobacco. I don’t know where the guy got it.

The fire note was also obtained from Guo Yan. This thing looks simple, but ordinary people are reluctant to use it. It is much more expensive than flint. Qin Chuan took it out just to take a puff of cigarettes and pretend to be a pussy.

Although cigarettes are a huge profit, Qin Chuan did not intend to grow this thing. With this land and manpower, it is better to have a few acres of grain.

After the development of agriculture, it can be planted and used to earn money from Mongolian livestock and foreign wealthy households.

After waiting for less than a quarter of an hour, after another commotion at the entrance of the town, an old man appeared.

He looks like a fifty or sixty years old, tall, with strong eyes, and a marten wearing a body. He is very noble and can't tell whether his figure is fat or thin.

This tall old man should be Du Yingguang.

Qin Chuan's eyes were on the mink coat on the other party. Look at the appearance, the material should be very good, and the clothes must be very warm in the cold weather.

After taking down Huangcongshan, Qin Chuan got a few marten pieces from there. After Meng Gui identified it, he confirmed that he was customized for himself and his wife and children. He just got it back from Xuanfu Town not long ago. He thought that the whole family would wear winter clothes and be generous, but before the weather got cold, he was robbed by the Bashan tiger.

With Meng Guiming and his sons' short figures, the size of those marten is also small. Qin Chuan, who has a tall figure, looks like a tense bear with a strong muscle, and he really doesn't look at it.

In the end, a few marten items were cheaper, Lao Huang and Bobcao, and Meng Guiming's wife's piece was given to Wang Jizong by Qin Chuan, and finally fell into Wang Jizong's wife's hands.

I heard that Ning, who has always been gentle and reserved, had been like peach blossoms in those days, and he made Wang Jizong, who was so kind that he hummed a small song when walking.

Qin Chuan also wanted a marten, which was warm and majestic, which could highlight his tall and mighty image.

I don’t know if Du Yingguang, the old guy, has a new and clean marten.

When I arrived at the entrance of the town and looked at the heads carefully, Du Yingguang's face also changed and became very ugly.

"Inspector Qin, what is this mean?"

Du Yingguang asked word by word with a gloomy face.

Qin Chuan's eyes were on his large lapel of marten and said with a faint smile: "I inspector arrested and killed several bandits one hour ago, and captured a group of rebels alive. He found that those bandits were from Jingyou Town, one of whom was named Du Chenggui, who was a member of the Du family."

"As a result, this inspector suspected that the Du family was hiding rebels and colluding with bandits to plunder the village. What can the head of the Du family say about this?"

"Ha, haha."

Du Yingguang laughed furiously: "A man surnamed Qin, do you think you can just hold me Du Yingguang at will?"

Qin Chuan shook his head: "Master Du misunderstood. This inspector is not trying to control the Du family, but...ah, since the inspector took office, he has not seen the Du family, and he is really disappointed."

“Hahahahaha…”

Du Yingguang raised his head and laughed wildly: "Just just for a small inspection, I want Du to get the money? Hahaha, you are too whimsical."

"Well, Zhao Wuliao Sanqin and others were originally soldiers from the Anbao camp in Kaipingwei, but they incited soldiers to rebel and attack and kill the Zhen'anbao general banner. They have described treason, crimes and the execution of nine clans. The head of the Du family should know what the charge is for harboring such a serious crime."

"Haha, do you say the Du family is hiding a serious crime, can anyone prove it?"

"Zhao Wuliao Sanqin and others can all testify."

"Then you should take them to the county government office to see if the magistrate He believes in their nonsense."

"Ha, Lord He may not believe it, but Lord Song of Futai...is not necessarily."

Du Yingguang's face changed, and he frowned and said nothing.

He remembered a rumor that the governor of Shanxi, Lord Song, valued the surname Qin, and even sent Hu Dawei to Mengjiazhuang to ask the surname Qin to counsel military affairs. In the end, the surname Qin refused.

Du Yingguang naturally didn't believe it. In his opinion, being favored by the governor, even if he was just a counselor of military affairs, it was a shortcut to rise to prominence. No one would refuse, and no one could refuse.

So, the rumors must be fake.

But Hu Dawei has come to Loufan, and he has been there three times, which is enough to show that the governor really values ​​the Qin surname, otherwise he would not have sent Hu Dawei to save him again and again.

If a person surnamed Qin sent the head to Yangqu and complained to the governor, things would be in trouble.

The reason why he sent Zhao Wu, Liao Sanqin and others to Loufan was because he was afraid that too many people would cause trouble. If he went there, he was afraid of being unsafe. He simply sent those few nights not to take them away. He thought that Qin would not take action rashly, but even if he started, with the skills of Zhao Wu, Liao Sanqin and others, he would definitely be able to escape safely.

Unexpectedly, those people were arrested and even killed a clan member.

If you are caught, you will be arrested. At worst, you can spend some money and ask County Magistrate He to help settle the matter.

Unexpectedly, the Qin surnamed Qin clearly came to the county magistrate He, but he had to go past He County and go directly to the governor.

This matter cannot be reported to the governor. I heard that the man was very honest and never collected cash. If he knew that the Du family had collected several border troops who had killed officials and defected, he would have to investigate.

I had made a mistake and I would have known that Zhao Wuliao Sanqin and others would not show up.

The Qin surnamed was wearing the skin of an official and doing the business of bandits. Now he came to make things difficult for him, and he didn't know what he wanted to do.

Thinking of this, Du Yingguang calmed down a little and asked loudly: "Since the inspector Qin came to investigate the bandits, Du, as the chief of grain in Jingyou, should cooperate with him with all his strength. What instructions does the inspector Qin have? Please tell me what to say..."

Hearing this, Qin Chuan smiled and looked at the other party's grand mink coat with a smile.

"Master Du, the number of hungry people has increased recently. Qin is willing to open a warehouse to help the people, but Lou Fan is repeatedly plundered by bandits, and there is no food left. Qin is willing to help the people but is short of money, and he is very upset about this."

"I have heard that the owner of Du is generous and generous to others. How about the owner of Du donating 500 stones of grain to help the people?"

Du Yingguang's brows frowned again.

A thief is a thief. Just like a dog cannot change his or her shit, he or she wants food when he or she opens his or her mouth.

Before he could respond, Qin Chuan smiled again and said, "Master Du, the mink coat you are wearing is quite good. Where did you buy it? How about helping Qin buy one?"

When Du Yingguang heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched.
