Chapter 106 Dismounting (Part 1)

He had made up his mind to rectify the troubles and eliminate the major gangs that had caused trouble in Bianjing City for many days, but Sun Tu knew that this was not easy. Even the officials of Kaifeng Prefecture were helpless with these gangs. If he wanted to accomplish things, he would inevitably encounter all kinds of difficulties and obstacles. To overcome these difficulties, it was far from enough to rely solely on himself and Lu Zhishen and others. He also had to have the support of the government's power.

As for the moment, the most important thing is naturally to fully control the yamen's officers and constables so that they can obey their own commands. As a former soldier, Sun Tu knew too well that the wholeheartedness of the whole country and the orders were implemented to defeat the enemy.

But at least it seemed that his idea was unrealistic. When Sun Tu sent a message to gather the twenty people who were considered his subordinates the next day, the old fried dough sticks in the yamen all seemed to be indifferent, and they didn't take him seriously, as the immediate boss, and even three of them didn't appear.

This is actually reasonable. As the head of the capital who landed in Kaifeng Prefecture, Sun Tu had no prestige in the minds of these constables. In addition, his age here made them even more contemptuous. Therefore, even if he was a ninth-rank official, he could not convince these old fried dough sticks. He just lined up lazily and stood there loosely and laughed at himself.

After seeing this, Sun Tu's expression became as gloomy as the sky today. After looking at them for a while, he sneered: "I was wondering before why the people in my Bianjing City never thought of suing the officials, and why those sluts could act recklessly in the city. Now I finally understand that it is because of people like you who are scattered in my Kaifeng Prefecture that there will be such a result!"

Faced with Sun Tu's sarcasm, these people were not ashamed at all, but said lazily: "I wonder what instructions did Sun Dutou ask to gather me together? But are there any errands to hand over to us?" Several people even showed greed in their eyes. This is a good opportunity to make money.

Speaking of which, the redundant officials and officials of the Song Dynasty have always been a big problem, and even after the reform of Xining, the problem was not really solved. What's more serious is that in addition to officials at all levels, there were also many clerks and servants in each yamen, but the salaries of these people were not collected from the court, but they thought of other ways.

Some officials who are still easy to talk to will take out some of their officials and servants from their servants and servants, but more of them can only exploit money from the people through various means. For this reason, these servants and servants often make clever names and find any opportunity to get money from the people under their rule. These servants and servants in Kaifeng Prefecture are no exception.

Sun Tu was stunned and understood their thoughts, and immediately snorted: "Of course there are errands, I'm afraid you don't have the courage to do it."

"As long as you give the order, there will be no errands that we dare not do." Someone said angrily.

"I plan to take the bamboo gang and Shunshuigang Lianguo. Do you have the courage to go with me?" Sun Tu suddenly asked in a deep voice. This question immediately made the crowd of people who were originally a little careless and suddenly shuddered. They looked at the new Dutou like looking at the crazy person. After a while, someone said inconscientiously: "Dou, what did you say?"

Sun Tu repeated the words just now: "This is the duty assigned by Judge Xue Tong to me, you will remember it."

After confirmation, the faces of these people changed completely. Isn’t this seeking death? Half a year ago, the case of two people who died suddenly by Bianhe has not been investigated yet. Now this Sun Duzhu is going to provoke those guys again? It doesn’t matter if he is crazy, but he doesn’t want to die yet...

"Why, are you scared?" Sun Tu looked at them with a smile: "Didn't you just say that nothing is wrong and you dare not do it? Why did you scare me like this when I heard about the names of the Zhujie Gang and Shunshui Gang?"

"Tao Sun Du, you can't talk nonsense about this matter. It's better to make a long-term plan..." A middle-aged detective, who was a little older, couldn't help but persuade: "I thought Xue Tong would not give such an order."

"You have no choice but to decide whether it is or not." Sun Tuke did not mean to bargain with them: "But don't worry, today is not the time. I have a more important job to hand over to you, that is, to get people."

This time, these old fried dough sticks didn't dare to interrupt casually anymore, just listened quietly to the following text, but Sun Tu glanced at the middle-aged detective: "What's your name?"

"Little Cui Lue Shang."

"Cui Lue Shang, I asked you, are you familiar with the three people who have not been present today?"

"They are You Laoba, Huang Qi and Yan Huan."

"Very good." Sun Tu nodded with satisfaction and said, "Today, the Japanese official will take you to arrest these three guys who are indecent and cannot be judged!"

As soon as these words were said, everyone was stunned again. But Sun Tu didn't give them time to think at all, and immediately waved his hand: "Set out!"

After all, he was an official, and a head of the government office with real power. With his order, even if the constables were reluctant, they could only take the order and follow him. It was not until they left the government office that Sun Tu looked at Cui Lue Shang again and asked, "Do you know where the three of them live? Lead the way."

"Du Tou, Huang Qi and the other two should not be at home at this time..." Cui Lue Shang said behind, but his voice stopped, obviously he was worried about something.

Sun Tu immediately frowned: "Then where did they go? Tell me the truth!"

"They should have gone to Maojiaxiang in Changxingfang to get people. That was the errand that Lu Du ordered two days ago." The other person immediately replied. This was very clear. It was not that the three of them didn't give you Sun Du's face, but because they had errands.

"Oh? I don't know anything about this?" Sun Tu didn't mean to go back at all: "Then go to Changxingfang and see what prisoners they are going to take than to refer to my boss." As he said that, he walked forward without caring about everyone's embarrassment. After the others looked at each other for a few times, they could only follow.

At this time, a servant who had just been lingering beside them had already rushed to the side hall and reported to Lu Fang and Shen Liang who were chatting inside: "Both heads, Sun heads suddenly brought people out of the yamen, saying that they were going to get Huang Qi and the others who were not in the yamen."

The two deputy heads with a relaxed look changed, and Shen Liang even glanced at the old opponent: "Is this what you arranged to do?" He knew the other party's methods so he guessed a rough idea as soon as he heard it.

"Didn't I find out the whereabouts of Zhang Si's family two days ago? I thought that I should give Fang Aisi an explanation, so I asked You Laoba and the other three to get the people. Is there any problem?" Lu Fang had quickly calmed down and asked back disapprovingly.

"I haven't seen you care so much before, and I've pinned Sun Dutou to summon everyone to give me a lecture. You must have done it intentionally, right?" After pausing, Chen Liang narrowed his eyes again: "And are you planning to bring Fang Aishi into this matter?"

"Haha, Chen Yidao, you are really smart enough. If it were you, I might not be able to succeed. But Sun Dutou, he is young and energetic, will definitely suffer this time. Fang Aishi is Liao Tongzhi's confidant, and it is hard to say what will happen if he fights him." As he spoke, Lu Fang smiled proudly.

The relationship between China in a yamen is complicated and cannot be understood by a newcomer like Sun Tu. Although Lu Fang knew that it was impossible to beat Sun Dutou with his identity, he had some ways to use the power to fight against him and rely on the power of other officials in Kaifeng Prefecture to deal with him.

As long as Sun Tu can lose face this time, he will be disgraced and become a laughing stock in the yamen. In this way, he will be replaced by himself in a few days.

After Chen Liang understood this, he just sighed softly: "I hope you don't make a mistake in your plan. Do you really think Sun Dutou will be so easy to deal with?"
