Chapter 418 434. Help from colleagues 12
The proprietress looked embarrassed. "I can tell you who to find, but it's dangerous to not have a household registration. You might be treated as a runaway slave."

Then don't let your good intentions lead to bad results and bring disaster to this family.

They had witnessed with their own eyes that someone was thrown into prison just because he had no household registration, and when he came out, there were words carved on his forehead?

If ordinary people were enslaved, even if they were wronged, they would have nowhere to seek justice.

"That's okay. Please ask the boss lady to introduce me to you." After Chen Yuxi said this, he handed over a handful of copper coins.

The proprietress wanted to say something but stopped herself. It was the boss standing next to him who quietly kicked her with his foot and nodded slightly at him. Only then did the proprietress purse her lips and agree.

"I am only responsible for introducing you. If things don't work out..."

"Then we still have to thank the boss lady," Chen Yuxi said solemnly.

Seeing how persistent they were, the proprietress didn't say anything else. She whispered a few words to the boss, and then the boss wiped his hands and went out.

When he came back, a yamen runner with a sword was following him.

"This is Mr. Gu from the yamen. If you have anything to say, just talk to him." The boss was not as kind as the boss's wife. He turned around and bowed to the Gu yamen runner, "Mr. Gu, these people want to see you to handle household registration."

The lady boss wanted to stop him but it was too late. What did this bastard want to do? How could he talk like that?
Just as he was about to help with the tracing, he saw Zhang Yaowen put down his burden, walked over and shook the runner's hand.

The bailiff was startled by the sudden movement, and before he could even grab the knife, he felt something hard stuffed into his hand.

He quickly lowered his head and glanced at him. A silver light flashed by. His face was no longer as serious as when he first came in. He smiled with a slightly curved eyebrow, "When you are away from home, you will always encounter some difficulties. Your household registration is lost, right? It's not a big deal. Tell me the details. If it's true, it's a piece of cake."

He turned his head and looked at the cloth shop owner and his wife who were hiding nearby, "Old Qian, can I borrow your place for a while?"

The cloth shop owner nodded quickly, "Master Gu, if you like it, I'll take you to the backyard right away."

The group returned to the backyard. This time, the boss opened the door of the cafeteria himself, wiped the tables and chairs clean, and served a pot of tea before leaving.

"This thing can't be used to handle household registration," When there were no outsiders present, Gu Yamen's face changed again. He tossed a small silver ingot in his hand and looked at Zhang Yaowen and the others meaningfully.

"We all know this," Zhang Yaowen also knew that he was complaining that the price was too little, but he couldn't raise the price himself. "My family originally wanted to come here to live with our relatives, but we ran into bandits on the road. We gave away our money and escaped during the chaos. Who would have thought that we would accidentally lose our pass and household registration? If you can help us, we would be very grateful."

After saying that, Yun Tutu also took out a pearl bracelet under the cover of her sleeves.

The round and flawless pearls instantly caught the eyes of Gu Yayi. He had seen a pearl bracelet on the hand of the county magistrate's wife before. The roundness and brightness were not half as good as this one, but she wore it to show off every day, saying that it was given to her by the county magistrate's teacher, the prime minister's wife.

"If you are willing to help, my family is willing to give you this pearl bracelet."

The old yamen runner showed greed on his face. A string like this would surely be sold for several hundred taels. This deal was well done.

He stretched out his hand to take the bracelet, but Yun Tutu dodged it and said, "I hope you can forgive me, sir. We are used to paying with one hand and delivering the goods with the other."

"You are merchants," the old yamen runner said with contempt. Only these merchants are profit-driven, but it is also because they are good at making money that they have such treasures. But it is not that he cannot help. Maybe in the future, when he is short of money, he can ask these merchants to help him out.

Immediately, he said with a smile, "These are all as they should be. Please write down your household registration information to me and I will go back to check it for you. As long as you don't have any cases, I can still help you process it."

Seeing that his eyes had not left the pearl bracelet, Yun Tutu said,

"Thank you for your help, sir. Don't worry, as long as the matter is done well, our family will reward you handsomely."

Gu Yayi's eyes lit up. The first thing he offered was a pearl bracelet. What kind of thing could he offer as a reward? It seemed that today was his day to make a fortune.

After weighing the silver ingot in his hand, he finally said, "But you should also know that this government office is not opened by me alone. If you need a household registration here, you have to get the seal of the county government, which is still a bit difficult..."

Zhang Yaowen took another step forward and stuffed three more silver ingots into his hand, each weighing five taels.

"Thank you, Master Gu."

"That's no problem," the old yamen runner smiled and quickly hid a few silver ingots in his arms, "You guys wait here, I'll be back soon."

Yuntutu stood up and asked, "After all, this is the private place of the cloth shop owner. Do you think there is a teahouse or restaurant nearby? It will be the same if we wait there."

Yuntutu certainly doesn't dislike this place, but wants to find out the news of this plane as quickly as possible.

Luo Meng had been in the village before and had limited information. Even if they completed the household registration today, they still had to think about where to go next.

After all, this place is not far from Luojia Village. The best way is to go far away, to a place where no one knows Luo Meng.

"Yes, there is a butcher shop a few doors ahead. It is owned by my brother. You can buy meat from him and he can help you process it."

Gu Yayi also realized that these people in front of him should be merchants in trouble who were not short of money. After making some money, they also wanted to help their brothers.

There are only so many people in this county who buy meat every day, and it is impossible for the remaining meat to be consumed by themselves. So the eldest sister-in-law came up with an idea. With her cooking skills, she set up two tables next to the store and bought meat and also processed it, so that there would not be much leftover meat every day.

"That's to take care of the business," Zhang Yaowen said first, and he had already stood up, "I'll trouble you for the rest, Master Gu."

“This is all as I should do. After all, I have to do the job if I get paid. But you should at least hand over your information to me.

Where are they from? Who are they registered as?”

Zhang Yaowen looked at Yuntutu, and Yuntutu immediately asked Songsong for help in his mind. After all, they knew nothing about this place and had no idea where to make up names of people and places.

As for Luojia Village, that place is not to be approached. If someone were to find out, Luo Meng would be the only one who would suffer.

Yuntutu wrote down all the names of people and places provided by Songsong. Gu Yayi looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar characters and frowned, "Your characters are so distorted that I really can't understand them. How about this, you tell me and I'll write."
