Chapter 1144
Perhaps he had been lingering in flowers when he was a teenager. After he became a Jinshi, Qiu Boze had no interest in women. None of his wife and concubines were brought to the capital, nor did he accept new ones. The two old mothers who usually served him were over 50 years old.
He no longer addicted to women, but instead focused on things in the yamen. This is why he was seen by the supervisor when he was in the Hanlin Academy. Even Emperor Wen of Jin knew that he was proficient in mathematics.
This time he arrived at Chizhou Prefecture, and even his subordinates took their luggage to the post station. He was exhausted and rushed to the Yangtze River to inspect the Yangtze River without stopping.
More than ten cargo and passenger ships have been moored by the river, and they have been intercepted if there are any problems.
Hundreds of passengers were stranded on the shore, and they were crowded with the goods that were forcibly unloaded, and the crowd complained.
Someone shouted, "The inspector is here!"
People immediately looked at Qiu Boze.
One of the small people rushed over immediately and surrounded Qiu Boze.
"Mr. Inspector, we spent a huge amount of money to go on the waterway when we had urgent matters. Now that the boatman is running away, who will give us our ship fare?"
It turned out that the ship that this group of people was originally a scrapped ship, which was extremely old and had been embargoed. In order to make money, the ship owner took the risk and continued to use it.
I didn't expect that the investigation was so strict this year and I was detained.
I knew that the boat would definitely not be able to be protected, and the yamen might have to take people, so I ran away for fear of the crime.
There were at least forty or fifty passengers on the ship, each with a ship cap ranging from five or six taels to twenty or thirty taels. For ordinary people, it was a huge sum of money.
It’s not an urgent matter, no one will be willing to pay so much money.
Qiu Boze looked at the local officials beside him, "How could he let the boatman run away?"
The official is a fourth-rank magistrate, and his official position is several ranks higher than Qiu Boze.
But the local officials dare not offend the capital officials. If there is anything wrong, it will be passed back to the emperor's ears. Whether the black hat is protected or not is a trivial matter, and whether the head is protected or not is a major matter.
The prefect explained immediately, "The boatman is proficient in water. When we checked the boat, he jumped out of the cabin and fled. Most of the yamen did not know how to water and was powerless. But we had already distributed portraits of the boatman at the ports along the way. Unless he was stuck in the water in one breath and couldn't come up, he would definitely be arrested in time."
Qiu Boze nodded, "Those who violate the law with their own body must be severely punished and killed chickens to warn the monkeys. As for these passengers, please allow the prefect to allocate them to other passing ships according to batches, and be sure to send them to their original destination."
The prefect nodded, "Don't worry, this inspector, we are already making arrangements. An official boat will pass by, and we will arrange for ten passengers to take the ride."
This arrangement was fine. Qiu Boze didn't say anything else and turned to comfort the stranded passengers.
One of the women in their forties squeezed in front of him and said furiously, "Sir, the inspector! Can you arrange it for our family first? We are rushing to the capital to do urgent matters!"
Qiu Boze could only say, "Everyone is doing urgent matters. Please obey the commander. The local prefect will definitely send everyone to you safely."
