As soon as he entered the inspection village, Jin Shuzhao accepted all kinds of deeds brought by Ma Meng, separated the people, and locked them in various courtyards.

Mamun was locked up in a room alone, and the two soldiers sat down at the door with a stool, and no one came to him.

Looking at the twilight, a soldier came in with a plate in it, a bowl of rice and two pieces of meat, and placed it in front of Ma Meng: "Eat outside the staff." ”

Ma Meng took it, looked at the sky outside, and said to the soldiers: "Brother, no one came to ask questions when I arrived in the village, and I didn't say when I would go out, what was going on?" What about the rest of my estate? There are many things in the village, and it is not good to delay here. ”

The soldier shook his head: "I was ordered by the lord of the village to only deliver food to the staff, and I don't know anything else." There was something incomprehensible outside, so I had to ask the owner of the village, or Du Guanren sent someone to find out. ”

After speaking, he stood aside and watched Mamun eat.

Ma Meng was helpless, he was really hungry, so he gobbled up the meal and asked the soldiers to take it out.

Early the next morning, another soldier came in and delivered breakfast, usually without knowing anything.

Ma Meng ate and couldn't help muttering in his heart. Wait until the sun rises, slowly pacing to the door, and look out.

When the soldier sitting on the bench at the door saw Ma Meng, he hurriedly got up and stepped forward to block it, and said: "The owner of the village has an order, and the staff only waits in the house." The affairs in the village involve military aircraft, and if it is not easy to look at it casually, please go back to the house. ”

Ma Meng muttered in his heart, this inspection village is not the first time he has come, and he is not allowed to see when the military aircraft is involved. It's hard to say it, but he just said: "Brother, it's been a night, why haven't you seen anyone from the yamen come to ask?" There are many things in my family, and it is not good to stay for a long time. ”

The soldier blocked the door: "The owner of the village just told my caretaker to stay in the house outside, and I don't know anything else." Outside the staff, we are soldiers and eat food, I don't know what to do, we only know the military order, don't embarrass me outside the staff. ”

Mamun was a clever man, and when he heard this, he knew that he was under house arrest here, and it was impossible for him to get out. After a while, he said: "Xu ate a bad stomach yesterday, I have some stomach pain, I don't know if there is a thatched house nearby?" ”

The soldier said: "There is a clean bucket in the house, and the general will do it." Later, someone will come to clean up, and the staff will live with peace of mind. ”

After speaking, his body moved forward, completely blocking Ma Meng's vision.

Ma Meng's eyes swept over, and he saw a soldier with a waist knife next to him, so he didn't dare to make a mistake, so he had to go back to the house. Returning to the room and sitting down at the table, the more Mammon thought about it, the more he felt that it was not a problem. This time, all the people in the village were arrested and inspected in the village, and if they only inquired about the household registration, they would inevitably go out to testify. As a result, I locked myself here and didn't see anyone, which is a bit bad.

At noon, another soldier came in and brought tea and some snacks, but Ma Meng was not allowed to leave the house, and Ma Meng panicked. It's just that the door was held by two soldiers, and no matter what, he was not allowed to go out, making it difficult for Mamon to sit still.

Inspecting the official hall of the village, Du Zhongxiao sat behind the case, quietly listening to Jin Shuzhao and He Kun's report on the population situation of Mamengzhuang. After listening, he asked quietly: "In this way, there are more than ten Zhuang guests in Ma Meng, more than fifty people, and only nine have complete cultural deeds?" ”

Jin Shuzhao arched his hand: "Back to the official, it's true." But this kind of thing is nothing, and many of the big families around it are like this. The rural areas are not strictly checked, and the small people do not want to pay the tax at the time of the deed, so they do a lot. However, most of the families in Mamun Village are in his house, which is not common. If the whole family is counted as a servant in his house, there will be a lot of deed tax evaded. ”

He Kun said: "How many illegal things Ma Meng has in his daily life, he is most afraid of leaking the news, of course, his whole family must be in his house." In case these bankers leak their mouths, these family members are hostages, and their subordinates dare not betray him. ”

Du Zhongxiao nodded: "I see." This is the best, what Mamun does his bankers must know, we just need to start with these people. You sort out the deeds, find out the details of these dealers, and then detain them separately and interrogate them individually. Remember, all those who do not have a deed are not recognized, and all are recognized as customers of the bank. Tell them that they will either serve as an errand like other households and be assigned to various insurances. Or, let these people pay the deed tax they escaped and redo the deed for them. All the consequences, they bear themselves. ”

Jin Shuzhao felt strange and asked, "Official, why bother doing this?" Wouldn't it be good to ask Marmon to make up all the deed taxes? ”

Du Zhongxiao smiled and shook his head: "Being subject to the deed tax is to recognize the Zhuang guest here as a servant of the Ma family." Relatives and relatives are hidden, and they can say many things or not, how can the case be tried? You bring in a few Baozheng in the village, and then find some people who are doing well, and explain to the people who are locked up what kind of life they will live if they are counted as customers in the village. Also, make it clear to them that no matter what happened before, it was only done by Mamun or coerced or deceived others as slaves, and the government would not investigate it deeply. ”

Jin Shuzhao thought for a while before nodding with He Kun, and finally understood what Du Zhongxiao meant. A person who does not have a deed should not be counted as a guest of Mamon's house, but a customer who does not have a fixed property such as a residence in the village and lives in Mamung's house. As for how to calculate the rent of the house, it is their own business, and the government does not need to ask.

Let Baozheng and the people who are living well in the village come to show up, which is to tell these people what kind of good life they can live in the future if they are counted as customers in the village. If they refuse, they choose to stand with Mammon first, then they will catch up with the deed first, and later recognize them as Mammon's accomplices.

If you are not a banker, but are counted as a customer of the bank, the legal principle of concealment of relatives and relatives will no longer apply, and the person who made this choice must confess to the government for what Ma Meng committed in the past, otherwise the crime of concealment without reporting will not escape. If he confesses early, the government can not blame the past, and everything will be blamed on Ma Meng's deception and slavery. With so many people, Du Zhongxiao didn't believe that they all went to the dark with Ma Meng. And just open a gap, and the rest will be easy to do.

Seeing that the two of them understood what they meant, Du Zhongxiao said: "This case has been going on for a long time, and now I can't be in a hurry, so I should think about it slowly." These days, you have to consult with a few more people and how to detain them separately. Remember, you must not lock up people who trust each other, and it will be difficult to interrogate them in a monolithic way. Let the people who are locked up be suspicious of each other, and they will be interrogated separately during interrogation. Every few days, it is shuffled and reorganized. In addition to Jin Kongmu's subordinates, the owner of the village selected some articulate and literate people to come out and try the case together. ”

Jin Shuzhao nodded, many of the officials in Yongcheng County were not clear with Ma Meng, of course they couldn't use them. However, he couldn't understand why the interrogation was so hesitant. Everyone has already been arrested, and they are still afraid that they will not confess, is the torture equipment in the inspection village an ornament?

Listening to Jin Shuzhao's question, Du Zhongxiao said with a smile: "If you use torture tools to extract a confession, you will be inferior." At this point, we have occupied the right time and place, and we must make an iron case. That is, if you don't beat or scold, it's all up to the people involved in the case to say it themselves, remember it clearly, and no one can find fault with it. I haven't been busy with official business recently, so I have bothered a lot about this case. Kongmu, if this case is handled beautifully, you will also be a great achievement. You have been in the yamen for many years, don't you want to wear an official robe on your body? ”

Hearing this, Jin Shuzhao was a little moved. Public officials can also be officials according to their seniority and merit, and it is worth fighting.

(Happy Mid-Autumn Festival to all.) Today's update, forgive me. ）
