Chapter 213 The promised immortals will return to the mortal world.
The rich man was not a native of Baishou City. He fled north because he was afraid of war. He had some wealth and bought a house and lived in it after entering the city.
Although I have heard that everyone in Baishou City is a good person, I can't help but feel worried. I have a lot of money, and I feel like I will lose it if I hide it.
He thought about it day and night, and finally decided to bury it!
He divided that sum of silver into several parts and buried them in his yard. In order to prevent people from knowing that there was silver here, he even put up several signs, one of which read - There is no three hundred taels of silver here.
But the money was stolen. When he got up the next day to look at the place where the three hundred taels of silver were, the soil had been hollowed out and the sign was discarded. Instead, a new sign was put up - Wang Er next door had not stolen it.
"Isn't that what Wang Er stole?" Su Yougen said.
"No, the sign says that Wang Er never stole. What would he write if he wanted to steal?" The rich man scratched his head.
Su Yougen: "..."
"Where's Wang Er?" he asked.
"I don't know, are you at home?" the rich man said again.
Su Yougen sighed and said to a row of soldiers: "Bring this person over and check if his family has any money."
A group of soldiers went directly out of the lobby and rushed to Wang Er's home. When they went there, they happened to see Wang Er digging a hole in his backyard to bury the money.
When he saw the silver, the rich man's face was obviously shocked.
Facts have proved that whether a person is rich or not has nothing to do with IQ.
The ability to lose or not to lose is related to IQ.
Although the man named Wang Er refused to admit it, it didn't matter anymore. There were marks on the silver, which were exactly the same as the silver the rich man brought. Even the craftsmanship was the same. And this Wang Er was a commoner in the city. Pu De was there before.
At that time, he just ate and drank and never asked for good fortune. Now he needed money for everything, and he had no money. A rich man from his neighbor happened to come, and he stole the money because of his evil deeds.
In order not to be discovered, he not only stole the smallest burial spot, but also thoughtfully put up a sign.
"Literate? What's wrong with being literate? Our government is short of people right now."
Su Yougen shook his head, slapped the wood, and said: "The elder made a three-part rule. Those who kill will die, those who injure others will be punished, and those who steal will be punished. You stole, and the amount was huge, eh."
He looked towards Zuo Yizhi, unable to continue talking.
The great master just said this, but he didn’t say any specific punishment. It’s easy for a murderer to be executed.
However, there is no sentencing standard for this punishment and crime.
Zuo Yizhi couldn't explain why, and the Nanping Kingdom didn't have any standards in this regard. Everyone brought their own weapons and practiced boxing and kicking. When they encountered those who were trying to do harm, they were either killed or counterattacked. There was no such thing.
Other options.
The atmosphere suddenly fell into silence.
Su Yougen gritted his teeth, looked at the people outside the hall, and said: "This is my first time to go to the hall. I have no experience and insufficient consideration. This person is guilty, and his crime will not lead to death, so I would like to ask you to discuss it in the future."
Make a law in the city, this law will be discussed by the people, then we will make an agreement with the people in the future!"
Zuo Yi's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but nod.
What a great idea!
People outside the lobby, you look at me, I look at you, your body is a little swaying.
What do you mean?
This official, want to discuss with them how to punish them?
"Kick him out, this person is harmful to others!"
"Yes, drive him out. The gods say this person cannot be killed, so we won't kill him. If he is killed by some beast or monster outside, it has nothing to do with us."
"Yeah, good idea."
"Don't!"
Wang Er was so frightened that everyone softened. He quickly knelt down and kowtowed to everyone outside the hall: "I just stole some money, why are you driving me out? Isn't it obvious that you want me to die!"
There are too many people fleeing here, and there are rumors now that there are monsters and ghosts and chaos outside. Even if there were not these, those strong thieves who robbed him might have kidnapped him and cooked him back. If he went out, he would be seeking death.
!
These days, there aren't many places where gods are watching over you, and it's even rarer if there are gods taking care of it!
"It shouldn't be expelled." Su Yougen also nodded and said: "The people in the city are protected by our Golden Immortal Sect. Even if they are guilty, they will be judged within the scope of the Golden Immortal Sect's protection."
"How about making money? Wouldn't it be nice to give the money back?"
"Ah? But has he returned it already? What will he look like again?"
"That's what you said."
A group of people were chattering away, each one talking more crookedly than the other. Just when Su Yougen was getting upset, a man walked out of the crowd, walked into the lobby, and said with great energy:
"There is a lot of cultivated land outside the city. Why not use it as a prison? What if we punish the guilty by cultivating the land, repairing the buildings, and doing miscellaneous labor?"
"Huh?"
The rich man in the lobby was a little stunned when he saw this person. Isn't this the same person who just persuaded him to report to the government?
He cupped his hands towards Su Yougen and said, "Master Taishou, what do you think?"
"Um?"
Su Yougen was stunned for a moment and looked at this person carefully.
The man had a sallow face and thin muscles, as if he had been hungry for a long time, but his eyes were very bright and his body was straight.
And it makes sense!
"good!"
Su Yougen nodded and said: "This method is good, and I will be happy if I hear it, but how long will it take?"
The man said: "Three hundred taels of silver, and you will be punished with a five-year prison sentence. The penalty can be increased or decreased according to performance."
"May I ask who you are?" Zuo Yi on the side subconsciously handed over his hand.
"I"
The man was about to speak, but suddenly his eyes froze, his whole body shook for a while, and then he suddenly fell down again.
…
"Name."
At this time, in other parts of the city, Zhang Feixuan was standing outside a residence, holding a pamphlet in one hand and a pen in the other, looking at the somewhat uneasy family of six in the house.
Those people looked at each other, but didn't dare to answer.
This is divine!
They've seen it before.
"Don't be afraid, I don't eat people, name." Zhang Feixuan repeated.
"This immortal master, whose name are you asking for?" A middle-aged man among the six people asked boldly.
"Ask whoever is in charge. Who is in charge of this house?" Zhang Feixuan said.
"My father." The middle-aged man replied.
Zhang Feixuan nodded, looked at the old man and said, "Old man, what is your name?"
"Back to the immortal master, my name is Li Qijin. When my mother gave birth to me, I weighed exactly seven pounds." The old man said tremblingly.
"Okay, the head of the household, Li Qijin, how old is he and what does he do?"
"I am fifty this year. I am a collector of medicinal herbs."
"Okay, this old lady is your wife, right? What is your name, what does she do, and how old is she?"
Zhang Feixuan wrote in his notes and looked at the old lady among them.
There are six members of this family, an elderly couple, a young couple and a pair of children.
The head of the house is Li Qijin, who is a herbal collector. His wife is Li Wang, who is fifty-five, and is also a herbal collector.
As for the son, he is a hunter, while his wife helps at home and has a pair of children.
"Nagging."
After remembering this, Zhang Feixuan left directly, then went to the next house and knocked on the door.
Yes, he is checking the household registration
In the words of my senior brother, when you enter a city, you have to know everything. How many people are there to defend the city, what they do, and what age they are.
But the government had just been established, and not all the literate people had been found. If we wanted to get things done quickly, we needed people from the Golden Immortal Sect to come.
Twenty or so people were all sent out, even Ling Dang looked presentable, and followed the senior brother to run to check the household registration.
"It was agreed that the immortals will return to the mortal world."
