Wu Sanlang disappeared two days ago. Because the background investigation has been stuck with Zhuge Shaobing, his entry has not been resolved. During this period, I asked him to help Jiangnan and Liu Sanjin to help record various sects, and he was diligent.

I asked him to come to Jianghushi, mainly because I liked him to hate evil and was chivalrous. This was fully reflected in dealing with the refugees in Jinling and Songjiang raw silk.

According to Jiangnan, they were going to go to the Cao Gang Office to file the registration on the day they disappeared. After the processing, several people were about to go to drink, but were stopped. The man said a few words to Wu Sanlang, Wu Sanlang explained to Jiangnan, and then followed the other party.

I thought he would come back after finishing the work, but I expected that once I left, there would be no news, as if it had evaporated from the world. Liu Yishou used his father's relationship with the Jinling Beggars' Sect for two days, but there was no further information.

Zhang Youqian asked, he is over fifty years old, and even if he leaves, he should have informed us. Why did he leave quietly? Is it possible that he was kidnapped?

I analyzed that it is not impossible. Recently, we have implemented a filing system. Although major sects are more cooperative on the surface, they have quite a lot of opinions in private. It is not impossible for them to dare to attack us and shift the target to Wu Sanro.

Zhang Youqian said, I will draft a notice to find someone.

I nodded and said, even if I searched through Jinling City, I would find Wu Sanlang, and I would see people alive and corpses alive.

After writing the notice of finding someone, I signed the name and ordered Jiangnan to hand it over to Zhuge Shaobing. According to the court procedures, Zhuge Shaobing could only be officially stamped with the official seal. The city was notified. However, when the notice reached Zhuge Shaobing's place, it was returned.

When I learned about this, I couldn't sit still and took the notice to find Zhuge Shaobing. Zhuge Shaobing was dealing with some official documents, and there was a book on his desk. It was a book "Legend of the Mingshan" recently published by "Bagua Weekly". I thought I could not imagine that I was interested in such chivalrous novels.

Zhuge Shaobing lowered her head and said nothing. We sat aside waiting for him to handle the documents. After changing the tea several times, he asked, "Captain Su and Captain Zhang, why don't you come to find me?"

I handed over the notice of finding someone and said that a brother from our Jianghu Department was missing. We wanted to send a notice to find clues. Jiangnan said that the adults did not sign, so I came to ask for some advice.

Zhuge Shaobing frowned and said, "Isn't this Wu Sanlang not yet joined the job?"

I thought to myself that if you hadn't been stuck in the back-release report, his entry would have been done long ago. But I said, even though that's the case, Wu Sanro has been helping the Jianghu Department for a while, and is considered half a member of the Jianghu Department.

Zhuge Shaobing picked up the teacup and took a sip. I hurried forward and filled the teacup. He said, "I'd like to ask the adults to reconcile it."

Zhuge Shaobing narrowed his eyes and said that Captain Su had been in Jinling for nearly half a year, and he also knew that the three losses, theft, disappearance and mistakes, are the three major problems in the public sector, especially the population disappearance, which are dozens of cases every year. Not only does this kind of case cost manpower and material resources, they are basically ineffective. If you want to post a notice, even if the case is officially filed, if it cannot be solved by the end of the year, it will inevitably be a little embarrassed when the superiors evaluate our case-solving rate.

I felt angry in my heart. Zhuge Shaobing refused to file a case for the sake of assessment.

The six gates of Jinling rank among the top in the court. Many cases are solved first and then filed, or they are randomly asked to find someone to close the case for death like Luo Youdao of Songjiang Prefecture. This is good at doing so, but I don’t dare to agree.

I said no matter how I said that it was all our own people at the Six Gates. President Zhuge's actions would make those who are subordinates feel a little disappointed.

Zhuge Shaobing shook his head and said, Captain Su, we are officials of the Ming Dynasty. We should consider the people's hearts and the people when doing things. Every copper coins we spend on the six doors are the hard-earned money of the people.

Seeing this, he was full of official voice and refused to let go. I became angry and said that since that is the case, then we, the Jianghu Department, will come and find someone by ourselves.

Zhuge Shaobing nodded, that's right, do it yourself to have enough food and clothing.

When he returned to Jianghusi, Zhang Youqian asked how it was done? I felt a little angry, so he reached out to smash the teacup and said that the six doors would not post a notice, so we issued a reward order. I don’t believe that I can’t find Wu Sanlang. I have to ask you to pay this money.

Zhang Youqian said that the ten thousand taels of silver for the eunuch who died was still here. There must be a brave man under the heavy reward. Someone provided clues and after verification, the silver was rewarded with 100 taels. Wu Sanlang was found and 1,000 taels of silver was rewarded.

I nodded and said, "Let's leave it to Liu Yishou to do it." They have many people in the Beggars' Sect. By the way, let Jiangnan copy Wu Sanlang's background investigation to me."

Not long after, Jiangnan brought Wu Sanro's background investigation report.

Wu Sanlang, male, 51 years old, from Dongping, Shandong, his father Wu Siliu, was a boxer at Xingyi Wujiao in Dongping County. He traveled three times at home. In the 17th year of Jingtai, he passed the Wuju exam and was not yet approved. Later, Dongping was attacked by bandits and his eldest brother was poisoned by others. The second brother became a bandit in Liangshan. He moved south to Songjiang Prefecture with his father and his family, and then worked as a farmer in Songjiang Prefecture.

The only stain on this resume is that his second brother was once a bandit, which should be because of this reason that he could not pass the political review. It seems that Zhuge Shaobing did not sign, and it is not without reason. However, the six gates are not a good candidate for talent selection. Among the Thirteen Eagles, many of them were thieves before joining.

Now that the person is missing, this backlog can only be put on hold for the time being, but if you have the chance, you will find a way to erase this stain on him.

Three days later, the entire Jiangnan martial arts world knew about this reward order. For a time, various clues came, some said that Wu Sanlang had appeared in Yangzhou, and some claimed that he had seen this person in Zhenjiang, but after some investigation, it was all groundless. After another half a month, there was still no news. However, we did not give up. I asked Jiangnan to put down his work and be fully responsible for tracking the matter.

At the end of September, a frost in Jiangnan came very early. Due to the Japanese disaster, the autumn rice planting was late this year, and it was time for ears to be born. The frost caused catastrophic losses to Jiangnan. The rice yield was reduced by nearly half, and the Japanese disaster caused several major granaries in the south of Jiangnan. Several grain-controlling forces in the city began to stock up on goods.

For a time, the rice price soared, almost catching up with the Japanese turmoil.

God is not open to his eyes this year. Jiangnan suffered one man-made disaster and one natural disaster within a year, and the food in the city was in a hurry.

There was a rumor in the market that this year there was an evil dragon doing evil in Jiangnan, destroying the feng shui fortune in Jiangnan, which led to these two disasters. I don’t know where the rumors came from, but they spread very quickly. Even the cabinet in the capital sent a letter to ask about this matter.

Min Qiuye was frowning all day long and held a meeting with the gentry and forces in the city, asking them to donate rice to survive the crisis. However, the major sects and forces verbally agreed, but when they got real money, they turned against each other.

And October is approaching, and the winter moon is about to begin.

As usual, after the winter enters, the thirteen provinces of the two capitals and thirteen provinces will provide charcoal to the various departments in the capital. Although it is a bad habit, it is also a tradition for thousands of years. The capital officials are not as good as state officials, and their salary is already lower. They hope to spend three festivals and two lives all year round, including ice and charcoal, to enrich their pockets.

But now Jiangnan is in trouble, but the prefect Song made a speech, saying that this year, the 300,000 taels of charcoal from all departments in the capital were worth a piece of copper. Compared with the suffering people, it is more important to leave a good impression in all departments in the capital.

This task was handed over to Min Qiuye for supervision, but Min Qiuye was upright and didn't care about this set of rules at all. She directly retorted at the office meeting of the Song Prefecture, which made the Song Prefecture very embarrassed. The relationship between the first and second leaders was very stiff.

The prefect of Song and Zhuge Shaobing were immersed in Jinling for several years. In many things, the two joined forces to suppress Min Qiuye.

At the same time, the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau sent meritorious documents to the inner court, saying that this year's bounty harvest would be a bumper harvest, and that 100,000 pieces of Su Jin and 500,000 taels of silver were escorted to the capital by the end of the year. After all, by the end of the year, the emperor should not be too stingy. All civil and military officials, all vassal kings, and all aunts and aunts must be rewarded to show the emperor's grace, right?

I really appreciate Min Qiuye's approach, but I know that this is not a wise choice. It is said that the prefect Song once complained to people, and the reputation of the honest and good officials made him profit by Min Qiuye alone, but he asked the prefect to come and wipe the butt of the Tongzhi.

After hearing this, Min Qiuye just smiled and didn't take it seriously.

On the eighth day of the October 10th, Min Qiuye was holding a meeting for Liushemen. He was in charge of criminal name, farming affairs, and academic affairs. Zhuge Shaobing and I were reporting to him about the recent public security situation in Jinling City.

Originally, Zhuge Shaobing had the greatest chance of becoming a Jinling Tongzhi, but Min Qiuye took the position. In addition, he was a local tyrant in Jinling, so he was very rude to Min Qiuye every time he spoke. At this time, someone came to report that Feng Bao of the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau came to send an invitation, saying that the tenth day of the October 10th was Feng Linggan, the young supervisor of the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau, and invited us to attend his birthday banquet.

The two of them treated Feng Linggan's invitations in a completely opposite manner.

Zhuge Shaobing was very polite to Feng Bao, saying that Eunuch Feng had been worried about the inner court over the years, and that he could still think of us on this birthday, which made me feel very honored. At that time, I must disturb you and ask Eunuch Feng for a cup of wedding wine. While talking, I also gave Feng Bao 100 taels of silver in front of us. Eunuch Feng came to deliver the posts in person, and worked hard all the way. I asked my father-in-law to accept this little meaning and invite my brothers to have tea.

Feng Bao quickly refused and said, "Mr. Zhuge is not allowed to do this. Even if we have to do something that our godfather has to do, how can we collect your money? Having said that, Zhuge Shaobing still stuffed the money into Feng Bao's arms."

Min Qiuye didn't say anything, Feng Bao had no choice but to say that he didn't know that Lord Min could enjoy the glory, and his godfather was still waiting for our family to reply.

Min Qiuye said that I would go to Jurong for investigation the day after tomorrow, and I am afraid I won’t be able to go there.

Feng Bao had no choice but to say that his godfather specifically told him to invite Lord Min to enjoy the glory this time, and there might be unexpected surprises.

Min Qiuye said with a cold face, "Did Eunuch Feng find his conscience and is going to take out the 300,000 taels of silver that he has taken to the capital to provide disaster relief?"

Feng Bao said awkwardly, Lord Min was joking.

Min Qiuye put the invitation on the desk and said: Don't worry, if I go back then, even if the person doesn't go, I will be more filial to you.

Feng Bao smiled and said, "Mr. Min is already a glorious thing for the Manufacturing Bureau to go, how dare we accept gifts from Master?"

Min Qiuye said he knew, but he would not give it to him.

Before leaving, Feng Bao looked at me and said that since Captain Su is here, I will not go alone. As he said that, he took out two invitations from his arms. This is the invitation to invite Captain Su and Captain Zhang to the banquet, and he will hand them over to you.
