Han official!

Chapter 92: Capture
The warehouse of the Wan family in Liushi was built using the rammed earth method. The walls were solid and could better keep out the wind and cold and provide self-protection. Only a relatively small door was left for entry and exit.

To prevent moisture from forming in the granary, which would cause the millet and sorghum to become moldy, the walls were dried with charcoal to remove moisture and plug the holes in the earthen walls.

The ground is laid with flat bricks with staggered joints, and blue bricks with higher market prices are used to pave the ground to avoid moisture and rain erosion caused by rainy days. There are also splashes inlaid with blue bricks for drainage.

On the east and west sides there are silkworm rooms, weaving rooms, koji rooms and other houses for retting hemp and making wine.

No matter how much Wei Guang said, the thief Cao and the prison officer would not believe him. The cloth piled up in the warehouse reached 2,500 buckets, so they ordered the thief catcher to start transporting the cloth out.

The Wan family of Liushi lived next to Liushi. They found the landlord of the city in advance and borrowed a lot of rainproof covered wagons to transport the grain in the warehouse of the Wan family of Liushi.

Who would have thought that there was no corn in the Wan family's warehouse in Liushi, but only a large amount of cloth.

The thief Gan drove the wagons in and out of the warehouse until all the wagons were filled with cloth, and there was still a lot left in the warehouse.

Wei Guang was both helpless and happy. He rode Stanley to the nearby Liushi, and then found the owner of the house to borrow some covered wagons.

In the open space in front of the warehouse door.

There was one ox-drawn covered wagon after another parked there, stretching as far as the eye could see, all the way to the door lintels with raised ends and tiled roofs.

There were covered wagons piled with cloth.

The thief Cao and the prison officer looked at Wei Guang, who was busy running around on his horse, running around on Stanley. He was so tired that sweat was all over his forehead, and his crimson lace clothes were sticking to his back, but he was still busy sorting out the spoils with a happy look on his face.

The cloth stored in the warehouse alone amounted to 2,500 baskets.

Liushi Wanjia is located in Liushi, one of the nine cities in Chang'an.

The family's wealth is truly astonishing.

The covered wagon was parked in the open space in front of the barn door.

The thief catchers and prison clerks were looking forward to it, knowing that they would not be treated unfairly if they worked under Guo Jie. Since they started to capture the knight-errant from Qiting, they worked extra hard.

When Guo Jie saw the hard-working thief catchers and prison clerks, he understood everything and was even more delighted.

With just some rice, flour and oil, he bribed all the police officers and prison guards in the capital.

This is such a good deal.

"Brother."

Yi Zong walked over with the wooden tablet, excitedly saying, "There are over a hundred fat pigs, and a lot of chives and vinegar. They're all the food the Wan family in Liushi is using to entertain the wandering knights from Huainan. They haven't finished their meal at the flag pavilion yet, so they bought plenty of fat pigs, chives, and vinegar in advance, and they're all stored in Wan Zimeng's house."

It's called shopping.

It was just that Wan Zimeng, using his identity as a flag chief, half bought and half robbed the meat and leeks from the Wan family in Liushi.

The market price of meat is twenty cents per pound.

The Wan family in Liushi only gave three or four cents.

Wan Zimeng was cursed a lot, but in the end all the benefits were taken away by Guo Jie.

"There's no need to chop a fat pig in two."

Guo Jie knelt on the white cloth-covered cart and raised his voice, "All the bandit catchers and jailers, thank you for your hard work today. Each of you will receive a fat pig, ten bunches of scallions, five jars of vinegar, and fifty catties of salt."

A whole fat pig.

The thief catcher and the prison officer were stunned at first.

incredible.

He couldn't believe that he was just following Guo Jie to inspect the prisons of Wanjia in Liushi.

What he got was a fat pig.

In addition, there are a large number of dyes such as leek, vinegar, salt, etc.

The thief catcher and the prison clerk were overjoyed and grateful. They stood up from the mud screen of the covered wagon and bowed deeply.

"If you have any questions from now on, Chief Guo, please feel free to ask. I will do my best to help you."

"Mr. Guo is so righteous! From now on, if the knights from Chen County or Linjin get into trouble and are thrown into the Chang'an prison, the clerks will definitely take care of them."

"Mr. Guo could use a minor official in Chang'an, but please give me your orders."

Guo Jie shook the sleeves of his gauze jacket and trousers, placed the wooden tablet inside the cart, and looked at the grateful thief catchers and prison clerks.

He couldn't help but laugh.

Some insignificant scraps.

This will achieve the effect of providing 800 yuan in meal allowance per day.

"hehe."

The thief sergeant sighed and said with a smile, "Guo Tingzhang's reputation among the thief catchers and the prison clerks is growing. If they follow him around the prison a few more times, from now on, nothing I say will be as effective as Guo Tingzhang's. The thief catchers and the prison clerks only know Guo Tingzhang, not their superiors."

It was just a joke. No one took it seriously.

However, Guo Jie knew the power of an 800 yuan daily meal allowance.

If a critical moment comes, he can completely bypass his immediate superiors and command all police officers and prison guards.

Guo Jie just thought about it and couldn't help but get excited.

The prison officer knelt on the white cloth-covered carriage beside him and smiled, treating the thief Cao's words as a joke.

"hehe."

Guo Jie laughed and said, "There are still seventeen or eighteen sheep in the sheepfold we captured this time. You two will each take half. In addition, there are fifty bundles of scallions, one hundred catties of salt, and ten jars of preserved meat."

He paused deliberately and said, "The wine is gone and cannot be used to reward the two Cao officials."

Hae is a sauce made from meat and fish.

An extremely rare meat.

It is much more expensive than big vinegar.

What's more, one person can take away nearly ten sheep!

The thief Cao and the prison officer looked at each other.

Overjoyed.

The most important point, according to Guo Jie, is not bribery, but reward.

If the official Zhang Tang were to investigate.

Guo Jie was the only one who withstood Zhang Tang's questioning.

Guo Jie transported large amounts of millet several times to buy a title to atone for his sins, and assisted Zhao Yu, the governor of Chang'an, in getting the first place in the plan.

Even if Zhang Tang was unwilling to admit it, he followed Zhao Yu to gain benefits from Guo Jie.

The embroidered clothes bestowed by the emperor are irrefutable evidence.

Guo Jie was not only an official promoted by Zhang Tang, but also someone Zhang Tang relied on deeply.

No one could stop the questioning of the cruel official Zhang Tang.

As for Guo Jie.

The cruel official Zhang Tang would have asked Guo Jie to get out immediately with just a few questions.

Guo Jie is a direct descendant.

Zhang Tang never liked to form cliques. No matter in the past or in the future, there would only be one direct descendant, Guo Jie.

It was a helpless move on his part to prevent another Chang'an Wei, Zhu Anshi, from controlling the Chang'an Duting.

From then on, Zhang Tang would no longer have any direct descendants.

Guo Jie asked, "I have known you two Cao officials for quite some time, but I haven't yet asked for your names and addresses. I will visit you at your residences some other day."

The thief Cao laughed and said, "My name is Yin Qi, and I live in Zhangtai Street."

Yin Qi!

Guo Jie's expression changed.

You guessed it right, it was indeed the cruel official recorded in "Biographies of Cruel Officials".

Yin Qi later became a lieutenant, equivalent to the commander of the Capital Military Region.

A real big shot.

The prison official smiled and said, "My name is Wang Wenshu."

Wang Wenshu!
Guo Jie was shocked.

He was not only a cruel official recorded in the "Biographies of Cruel Officials", but also a cruel official with the most brutal means.

He is considered the most cruel official.

Guo Jie's burning of more than 200 members of the Liushi players' clansmen was just a minor incident in front of Wang Wenshu.

Wang Wenshu arrested the powerful and cunning people in the county, implicating more than a thousand families. Those with serious crimes were exterminated, while those with minor crimes were executed, and their property was confiscated and turned over to the public.

A bloody massacre took place, and blood flowed for more than forty miles.

Not more than a thousand people.

There are more than a thousand companies.
