  Chapter 225 Pig Butcher

  Haikang County Government Office

  Lin Jinxiao sat in the government office nonchalantly, reviewing the case files that arrived at noon, but whenever he thought of the "Brother Zhu" that Chu Nanzhi was talking about, he would feel restless.

  Liu Shuyang took Sibao Lin Ruijia to sit at a desk far away from him, and it was also dull for a noon.

  Early in the morning, my brother-in-law took me to the county government office, and I was not allowed to go anywhere. I was really depressed.

  Seeing that it was almost time for lunch, Liu Shuyang finally couldn't hold back, and broke the long-lasting silence in the government office: "Brother-in-law, shall I take Sibao out to buy some food?"

"no."

  Lin Jinxiao continued to flip through the file in his hand, without raising his head calmly.

  Liu Shuyang did not give up: "Brother-in-law, you see Sibao and I can't help sitting here, why don't I take her back to the post house to rest?"

   "Today, the two of you can only stay in the county government office, and you are not allowed to go anywhere."

  Lin Jinxiao's tone was cold and serious.

  Liu Shuyang was discouraged, and secretly muttered to the dazed little Sibao: "Sibao, did your mother quarrel with your father again?"

   Sibao pouted and shook his head: "Uncle, your mother and father only quarreled, my mother and father don't quarrel."

   "My mother and father are arguing?"

  Liu Shuyang touched the back of his head wonderingly: "Even if it's noisy, I can't hear it anymore."

  Hearing the little guy's voice, Lin Jinxiao finally raised his head and turned around: "Sibao, are you hungry?"

   "Father, Sibao is not hungry."

  The little guy touched his flat belly, not wanting to disturb Dad's work.

   "Silly girl, if you are hungry, you are hungry. We must be honest."

  Lin Jinxiao saw through the little one's thoughts at a glance.

   "Oh, Dad, Sibao is a little hungry. Sibao wants to eat braised pork. Uncle Laifu said that the braised pork here is delicious."

   Sibao finally spoke his mind.

   "Okay, Dad asked the county government's cook to do it for you."

As soon as Lin Jinxiao finished speaking, Tan Miao, the chief secretary, walked in with a pile of official documents smiling, and said enthusiastically, "It's almost time at this time, and Ling Ai wants to eat braised pork. Ri just bought some meat, so I went to the back kitchen to talk to the cook."

   "No need."

Lin Jinxiao answered in a cold voice, looked at the little son-in-law, and ordered, "Shu Yang, go to the door and talk to Guan Erbai, and tell him to let the new chef prepare the meals and bring them here. By the way, Hu Adults also come here to eat."

  Liu Shuyang went out obediently, Tan Miao felt a little uncomfortable watching it.

He hasn't figured out the heart of this boss yet, but what is certain is that he is full of distrust for the entire Haikang county government, so it's enough to keep everyone in charge, and even changed the county government's staff overnight .

Tan Miao secretly squinted at the little boy beside him, then carefully put the official document in his hand beside him, and asked softly, "Master Lin, will the group of servants and officials who have been interrogated in the past two days be allowed to restore their freedom?" , and let them go home."

   "Master Tan is in a hurry?"

  Lin Jinxiao lowered his head and asked casually.

   Tan Miao replied with a smile: "I don't dare to be humble. I just think that if they don't return all night, the family members will worry."

   "Peng Dianshi went out with his wife to handle the case today, and these matters will be decided upon his return."

  Speaking, Lin Jinxiao put down the file in his hand, slowly raised his head to look at him, and asked meaningfully: "Master Tan, do you think my wife and Peng Dianshi can find any clues in the south of the city today?"

   "I don't know about the lowly position."

   Tan Miao was at a loss: "In addition to the Kang family's fish pond in the south of the city, there are only a few salt wells and a smelting camp. I don't know what Chu Niangzi and Peng Dianshi intend to do here."

   "Oh, I have something I want to ask Master Tan about."

  Lin Jinxiao smiled lightly, and looked at him slowly.

   "Master Lin, please speak."

   Tan Miao lowered his head halfway, cautiously not daring to look directly at him.

   "Today, when I was looking through the dossiers over the years, I found an interesting thing."

The corners of Lin Jinxiao's mouth were raised slightly, and a wicked smile appeared: "During the past ten years, out of the six county magistrates, three resigned, and three died tragically. One is not staying in a post house."

   "If you think about it carefully, this is indeed the case."

Tan Miao stroked his beard slowly, nodded thoughtfully, and said, "Actually, I suspected before the humble post that the past several county magistrates might have been infected with the plague, but Kang Mingyuan was worried about causing panic in the government, and he was eager to make contributions. , eager to arrest the traffickers and bring them to justice, and the humble staff dare not make wild suspicions."

   "Master Tan is really worrying too much. If it was a plague, how could he infect a few county magistrates, while the others were unharmed?"

  Lin Jinxiao got up slowly, took Sibao to sit down in front of him, and asked slowly: "Does Master Tan know anything about Chen Wu, the former head of the post?"

   Tan Miao shook his head blankly: "I don't really understand."

  Lin Jinxiao nodded and smiled wryly: "But I heard that he killed pigs for others before entering the post?"

   "The humble job is really unclear."

Tan Miao frowned, not knowing what he meant by asking this question, and replied truthfully: "Your Excellency also knows that lowly officials are soft-spoken, that is, the county yamen is in charge of documents, books and seals, how can other lowly positions know. "

   "Master Tan is too modest."

Lin Jinxiao stared at him closely, pondered for a long time, but heard footsteps from outside, turned his gaze, and saw Li Ce rushing in, sweating profusely on his forehead, shouting: "Brother, are you going out today?" , you can see something suspicious."

  Before he finished speaking, Li Ce immediately stopped what he wanted to say when he saw Tan Miao's figure.

  Seeing his sudden return, Lin Jinxiao's heart tightened, and he said solemnly, "Sanlang, who told you to come back? Where's your sister-in-law?"

   "Oh, sister-in-law is fine."

  Li Ce replied out of breath while sweating, "We have arrested Kang Mingtang and brought him to justice. My sister-in-law is worried about my brother's safety, so I specially asked me to come back to protect him."

  She misses me so much now?

  Lin Jinxiao's heart surged with warmth, and a complicated look suddenly appeared in his eyes, which was both touching and indescribable.

  But who is her big brother Zhu?

   I didn't bother to think about it anymore, since Kang Mingtang has been arrested, there will definitely be no serious problems with Chu Nanzhi.

  He continued to stare at Li Ce meaningfully, and said calmly: "Since I'm back, I'll do something for Brother Yu, and go to Qinyuan Village to arrest the chef Chen Wu."

   "Okay, brother, I have left a team of people for you to serve at your house."

   After Li Ce replied, he immediately rushed towards the government office.

Hearing the dignified footsteps, Tan Miao suddenly screamed in surprise: "This unscrupulous person in Kang Mingtang dared to kill Miss Chu, I'm afraid it's not good, Mr. Lin, I know that Kang Mingtang raised her The hiding place of a group of thugs, I am willing to lead the way for my lord, and arrest these gangsters in one fell swoop, maybe I can find some other clues."

   "No need."

Lin Jinxiao stopped the steps he was about to take: "Master Tan, my wife has nothing but a good brain. Now that she's there, no trace of clues can be hidden from her eyes. Master Tan, I'd better get along with Ben." Let the officials stay in the yamen and rest."

   "Yes, take orders from a humble position."

   Seeing that he was unmoved, Tan Miao could only nod resentfully, turned around and walked slowly towards the front hall.
