The first prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 479 A Little Thing

It's very lively here, it should be a fish market, and it's usually here for trading, so there's nothing lively about it.

Besides, this is also a port, so it's not surprising that there are many people coming and going. Zhao Xu didn't think it was strange at all.

But what's strange is that at this time, there is a lawsuit against Shangju in the fish market. It seems that someone lost something or something, which makes Zhao Xu very interesting.

Zhao Xu took Zhao Mengru and watched with great interest that the fish market official in charge of this place was adjudicating this. It was just a trivial matter, but it made him embarrassed.

Because this little thing gave him a headache, he didn't know who it belonged to, and he didn't have the ability to tell the difference.

The thing is, it turns out that there is a popular fishing here all the year round who said that he lost a basket of his own.

This basket is what he used to catch fish and shrimp, and he said he couldn't find it, and if he couldn't find it, he couldn't find it.

But at this time today, he met a person who said that the basket in his hand was really his own.

That young man didn't want to hear it anymore, this thing has followed him for many years, why is it you.

This man doesn't make a living by fishing. Although he lives here, he goes out from here to the town every day to sell noodles.

This flour is in the north, but it is a bit of a luxury in the south, so this guy chose this line.

This basket is what he usually uses to finely sift the flour, and the ones that have been sifted by this road condition are all high-quality goods.

Now someone says that this tool belongs to him. Of course, this person is unwilling, and the two people are arguing here.

"My lord, this is mine. I use baskets to salvage fish and shrimps in this Dongting Lake every day. Everyone knows this. Now you say that this basket belongs to you. What evidence do you have?"

The fisherman looked anxious, Xiao Zhang has been a fisherman for generations, and he is also known for his honesty in ten miles and eight towns, and everyone thinks what he said is credible.

Zhao Xu looked at the reactions of the people around him, and saw that this young man named Zhang was alright. Being able to get the approval of so many people showed that he was a good person.

"It seems that this thing should belong to this young man. You see that everyone agrees with what he said. What do you think?"

Zhao Mengru whispered her opinion to Zhao Xu from the side. It seemed that she had a good impression of Xiao Zhang.

Zhao Xu was very embarrassed to just help out without knowing anything, and you must be too arbitrary.

"Girl, you haven't been out for a long time. How do you know how dangerous the current society is? Do you know what the current society looks like? Do you think it's still the same as when you were in the Qin Dynasty?"

"You have to remember not to believe even if you see it with your own eyes, because even that may be false, see it first and then say it."

Sure enough, the person in charge of the investigation said:

"Little San, do you have anything else to say?"

puff!
Zhao Xu is almost going to rant now. This girl's name is Xiaosan. This name is really a promising name. No one would dare to call it this name.

Zhao Mengru looked at Zhao Xu puzzled, not knowing why he lost his composure, why he had such a reaction when he heard a person's name.

Zhao Xu didn't explain too much. In this era, there is still the meaning of the name Xiaosan. Under the polygamy system, they would not understand the meaning of this word.

"My lord, Xiaosan, I was wronged too. I have used this basket for many years. Look here, there are still traces of my cutting with a knife."

As he spoke, he pointed to a place for the people around to see, and there was indeed a knife mark on it.

At this time, everyone turned their attention to Xiao Yuzhang to see what he had to say. He has already produced the most powerful evidence, so what else can you say.

"My lord, I also have evidence. My basket is soaked in water every day, so it looks wet as a whole. You can see that this thing is wet, so I can prove that this basket is mine."

Xiao Yuzhang also took out his own so-called evidence, and everyone saw the same thing.

"No, this basket has been used for many years. Every time I come back at night, I soak him in water to make him softer and prevent him from breaking."

The one named Xiaosan also spoke out, why the basket was wet, and what he said was reasonable.

At this time, the human class responsible for mediating this matter is a bit difficult, and it is not worth reporting this trivial matter to the county.

"Such a small matter is not easy to solve. It takes so much trouble there. It only takes me a while to tell who this thing belongs to."

Zhao Xu laughed when he saw this. He remembered that there was such a plot in a TV series called "Young Bao Qingtian" in his previous life. Self-love first seemed to be a repeat of it.

"Oh, little friend, can you solve this problem?" At this time, an old man with silver hair asked immediately when he heard Zhao Xu say that he could solve it.

The folk customs here are simple and honest, and they would not use heavy punishment for such a trivial matter, it is not worth it, this old man is the elder on the stage of the beggar gang, Yinhu.

Not only Zhang Kang and Han Jue were standing behind him, their eyes were full of heat.

Zhao Xu looked uncomfortable because they saw something they didn't expect, the treasure of their beggar gang - the dog-beating stick.

The dog-beating stick should be in the hands of their leader, why is it in the hands of this young man, but they didn't find it strange.

They thought of the strange font that appeared on the slate, and wondered if this person was the so-called predestined person?

They didn't say anything, just happened to encounter this incident, and the few of them, who are hundreds of years old together, were also puzzled.

Then the young man said he could solve it, let's see how he said to solve it first, if he is really a predestined member of the beggar gang, you can also take this opportunity to see how talented he is.

If not, there is no loss to them, and it would be better to help the people here to resolve some small disputes by the way.

"The old man is right. Thank you for asking, but the boy can solve this problem. You might as well let the old man take a look at it. When the boy really has nothing to do, the old man can give you some pointers."

Seeing this white-haired old man, Zhao Xu also respected it very much. Respecting the old and loving the young is the tradition of the Chinese nation, and Zhao Xu still knows it.

The old man nodded in satisfaction. He was young and confident, but polite, which was really rare. Just one sentence made the old man very optimistic about Zhao Xu.
