Chapter 98
Within three days, the people who captured the perpetrators came back. Except for a few people who escaped to the opposite country of Shi, more than 60 people were captured this time, including of course the wife of the small tribe and others.
"Sir, you don't know what to do with the more than sixty people you've captured?"
He Yue happily came in from outside to report.
"Kill to pay for life, debt to pay for money"
Li Changxian said harshly.
"What about these indigenous wives and others?"
He Yue asked next.
“The woman is temporarily sent to a labor camp to compensate for her family’s sins by building roads!”
Li Changxian hesitated for a moment, but still let these women go. In his eyes, women and children were innocent.
"Others must be scrutinized strictly. Never let a bad person go, and never wrongly accuse a good person!"
"yes!"
He Yue answered without hesitation.
Before He Yue could leave, Li Changxian muttered again: "Let's have a public trial! Let the people of Wanling County see clearly that those who commit crimes will be killed!"
Li Changxian did not go to the public trial the next day, but Li Zhu told him about today's public trial when he came back in the evening.
He Yue set up a table in front of the store where the deceased's family lived, and placed a case for the deceased's family, which was filled with incense, candles, paper money.
There were more than thirty tied-up murderers under the stage. Each one of them had their mouths gagged with something. They wanted to speak but couldn't, so they could only struggle hard.
When He Yue loudly announced the fact of their evil deeds on the stage, their eyes were filled with innocence. Weren't they always like this before? They killed people and hid in the mountains. When there was no movement, they came down again.
Why is it that now it is their turn to be condemned and beheaded?
They are so innocent!
This is the second time that Wanling County has held public trials and executions.
The first time was after the county government turmoil, when more than ten people were beheaded on the spot in the county seat. The people watching at that time were indifferent. They could neither like nor hate the lives and deaths of those wealthy people. In short, for them,
None of this has anything to do with them, people should do whatever they are supposed to do!
But this time, many people hate these perpetrators extremely much. Which store of ten people is innocent, you deserve it!
It was these perpetrators who destroyed their peace, and it was these perpetrators who reminded the people of Wanling County of their previous lives.
When He Yue announced that the execution had begun, everyone started cheering, and many people crowded in front of the stage to watch this bloody scene.
Li Dazhu stood on the stage and once again played the role of executioner.
However, this time he was not allowed to enjoy it alone, but Qian Laizi volunteered to be the executioner with several of his men.
Seeing Li Dazhu standing motionless on the stage holding a knife in one hand, with no emotion in his eyes, he then looked at the others, feeling a little panicked, and some even had a trembling hand holding the knife.
Qian Zizi thought of the family that had been victimized this time, and he became cruel, shouted at his men, walked to the side of the assailant, and raised the steel knife in his hand.
"Execution!"
Several sword lights flashed past, and the head fell to the ground!
...
Li Changxian did not go that day, but Li Zhu came and explained the execution process to him vividly.
Li Changxian really didn't expect that Li Dazhu would find his second career so quickly, and Li Dazhu on the side was not at all ashamed of being an executioner.
Thirty-six lines, every line is number one.
Li Dazhu is already the number one executioner in Wanling County.
When everyone congratulated Li Dazhu with clasped fists, Li Dazhu also extended a hand to clasp his fists in thanks, which made everyone laugh.
"Now there are a lot fewer guards in the county government. It is necessary to recruit more people!"
This time Li Changxian felt the shortage of manpower. Not only the county government office, but also the shops on both sides of the road needed many people to patrol.
During this arrest, several more people escaped, and these people may come back for revenge at any time.
Thinking of this, Li Changxian once again thought of the dangerous person Zhao Qingquan. This person has not been seen for a year, and he seems abnormal in himself. He might be causing harm there.
Mainland? Li Changxian thought about it for a long time, but he never thought of anyone who dared to confront the aristocratic family, not even the prince.
Another place is the Stone Kingdom. The Stone Kingdom has always been a big trouble to the south of the Jin Dynasty. If nothing happens to the Jin Dynasty, this small country will not invade. But if there is any trouble in the Jin Dynasty, the Stone Kingdom will come to pick it up.
Cheap.
This was the case twenty years ago during the struggle for the throne, and it was also the case seven or eight years ago when the Lingnan natives were in turmoil.
It’s not enough to always be on guard against the Stone Kingdom. We must take the initiative to advance.
"Do you know anyone in Shiguo?"
Li Changxian looked at Abda, this matter was something people from Lingnan were familiar with in Shiguo.
"I remember that Adeba's uncle often went to Shiguo to do business. I can ask him."
Abda thought for a moment and replied.
"If he can come out of the mountain again, can he bring some people there so that he can pass on some information to us in the future?"
Li Changxian was still thinking about one thing. Although Wanling County has a small population, the area under its jurisdiction is quite large. It is connected to Lingnan Prefecture in the north, the sea is 200 to 300 miles to the south, and the Stone Kingdom is on the other side of the southwest coast.
Since taking office, he has been wandering around thirty or forty miles around Wanling County. He has not sent anyone to take charge of other places. Once the Shi Kingdom invades, these places will be easily taken over by the Shi Kingdom.
In order to prevent Shi Guo from attacking Wanling County, the only way is to bring these places under the jurisdiction of the county government.
It's not enough to just assign a few people to govern. The only way is to incorporate this area into the economic circle of Wanling County.
And roads are the links that connect these places.
“I want to build roads in the southern part of Wanling County, all the way to the sea!
When Li Changxian loudly announced to everyone that he was going to build the southern road, everyone was a little surprised. Wanling County is currently short of manpower in all aspects. The road to Yangyang Town has not been completed yet, and the renovation of houses in the county has not yet begun. Where can the people come from?
use?
Li Changxian felt sad in his heart, how difficult it was to talk to a group of bad guys!
"not enough people?
Why must we use our current people?
We can contract out roads. Whether locals or foreign businessmen, as long as they come to contract, we welcome them.
They provide people and we provide money.
Are we short of money now?
There’s no shortage of it!”
This sentence made everyone laugh. There was really no shortage of money in Wanling County during this period. Coins made of copper were mostly used by the people in Wanling County. Most people in Wanling County chose the new coins of Wanling County, while few people used the coins of the Jin Dynasty.
To everyone's embarrassment, the Jin Dynasty had a backlog of coins.
In addition, there are too many people going down the mountain during this period, and there are also many people who have nothing to do, which puts a lot of pressure on the public security of Wanling County.
Rather than letting them have nothing to do, let them have something to do!
First recruit some guards from these people, give them food and drink, and give them money. Everyone does not love money.
People are indispensable for building roads and houses. Ask them if they are willing to go?
Chapter completed!
