Hearing this, Xu Pingteng stood up.

Xiuxiu's sheep were stolen, he originally thought it was a headless case, not to mention this era, in Xu Ping's previous life, the technical means were so developed, and the property such as cattle, sheep, chickens and rabbits was lost in the countryside, how many could solve the case? There is no way to find out

Li Wei is an unsuccessful elder, can he really have clues?

Xu Ping asked Gao Daquan to drag Li Wei into the firewood room, sat down on the stool, and said to him, "Who is the sheep thief?" Tell me about it. ”

At this time, Li Wei regretted it again, those people were more fierce than Xu Ping, and he couldn't afford to provoke them, kneeling on the ground, and he just refused to speak well.

Xu Ping saw it, smiled and said to Gao Daquan: "This guy, forget the pain if the scar is not good!" You have also been in the army for so many years, what means do you have at your disposal? Remember, only let him hurt to the heart, and there must not be a trace of it on his face that can be seen! In this way, we will get it in front of the emperor, and he will not be able to bear us! I'm a little tired when you come to treat him. ”

When Li Wei heard this, he raised his throat and eyes in his heart, and he didn't even dare to breathe, and peeked at Gao Daquan. I secretly prayed in my heart that the two still had a friendship when they were in the horse prison when they were in the army, although they offended him today, I hope that Gao Daquan, this bastard, will not go to his heart.

Gao Daquan really shook his head: "Back to the official, the little one in the horse prison is a small character that anyone can send, where can these be?" Besides, in charge of people in the army, as long as the officials don't like it, they are all big sticks with no head and no brains, how can there be so much attention? ”

Xu Ping sighed: "Or do you want me to come?" It's not good to get his legs and feet again this time, otherwise he will and pee and dirty this place. Go and fetch some paper, and ask for something as strong as mulberry paper, and take half his life first! ”

Li Wei saw Gao Daquan turn around, no matter how he thought about Xu Ping's words, he was afraid that he would not only want half a life, but also a whole small life. couldn't stand it anymore, and kowtowed to Xu Ping: "The little official spared the life of a little dog!" I will say whatever you ask, and I will no longer dare to hide half of it! ”

Xu Ping sneered: "Who wants your dog's life, dirty my hands!" I'm just going to make your life worse than death! There's no place to hit the wall! Say it! ”

Recruit Gao Daquan back and let him watch Li Wei.

Li Wei sighed: "What I said is all heard, there is no evidence, it can't be taken seriously, the petty officials know it!" ”

Xu Ping said: "You just have to say, I just listen, what are you doing with so much heart!" ”

Li Wei said: "This matter is a long story, and it has to start with the trial list of the imperial court a few months ago, which involves several characters, and the petty officials should be a little patient." ”

Xu Ping raised his foot and kicked Li Wei's shoulder: "Let you worry less!" Just to be more detailed, I have a lot of patience, and it won't tire my ears even if it wears out your mouth! ”

Li Wei said: "Yes, yes, what the petty official said is true!" Since the trial release of the imperial court, many township tributes have been deposed by the imperial court, and some of them have poor family backgrounds, and they have been exiled to Beijing and cannot return to their hometowns. There is such a person in it, who is a Huazhou Jinshi, and he also passed the provincial examination, but he failed in the palace examination, and his body was entangled and there was no more, so he looked for some ways to make money in Beijing. It was also a coincidence that he met an immortal master who had a Taoist practice, and he didn't know where to learn the immortal arts, which could be turned into silver from copper. The silver made of this point is extraordinary, and although it has been refined, it will not change color, and it is the same as the real one. Although this immortal art is a way to make money, in the eyes of the imperial court, it is a forbidden thing, and it cannot be done in Beijing. They also met an idler named Ke Wulang in the capital, and he had a group of brothers, and the three of them worked together to think about going to the countryside around the capital to do this. Ke Wulang is from this neighborhood, so he came to our Zhongmu County. The sheep of Ren Muzi's family were stolen by Ke Wulang and sold them to buy raw materials, and they turned copper into silver. ”

Xu Ping frowned, what kind of mess is this.

Based on the knowledge of Xu Ping's previous life, using copper to turn into silver must have added some raw materials to form a copper alloy. If the effect is really as good as Li Wei said, it is estimated that it is nickel white copper. Nickel white copper is also known as Chinese silver, it is conceivable that in the eyes of the ancients, this thing is more like silver, and it has been very prosperous for a period of time in history. It was not until later that European industry rose and industrialized production was realized, and Germany had the largest production volume and the best quality, just like many things in ancient China, and the name was also taken away by Westerners and renamed Germany.

To say that in ancient China, a variety of strange methods were used to point gold and silver, which has a long history, and it is a kind of magic art, called Huangbaizhu. Looking closely at the history books, before the Tang Dynasty, there was a huge amount of gold in China, and by the Tang and Song dynasties, gold suddenly became a scarce resource. Needless to say, many of the so-called gold before that time was a mixture of medicinal gold, and even when Wu Zetian was in his time, he once rewarded the minister with the medicinal gold as real gold. Among these medicines, iron sulfide, which is everywhere, is the most deceitful. When the time came to the Song Dynasty, people's understanding of gold and silver deepened, and they couldn't deceive people by turning stones into gold, and the magic of silver began to become popular again.

But there is a problem, it can be used to point copper into nickel white copper, why not directly point iron, make stainless steel to make money in a bright way, isn't it better?

After thinking about it, he couldn't figure it out, so Xu Ping had to put it down for the time being and asked Li Wei: "They are robbers, why are they going to rob money, they have to steal the sheep of the Ren family?" ”

Li Wei said: "I have heard of this small thing, it was Ke Wulang who saw Ren Anhun's family Tian Liuniang one day, and he wanted to go up to tease him, but he was beaten and scolded, so he held a grudge and wanted to ruin his family." ”

"What?" Xu Ping just scolded secretly in his heart, and sure enough, it was this kind of bloody plot again.

After thinking for a while, Xu Ping asked, "Where are Ke Wulang's gang hiding now?" ”

Li Wei said: "They see the head but not the tail, who knows?" If the little one had been convinced, he would have known that the county minister would go to take people, and there would be a reward. ”

Xu Ping stared at Li Wei and suddenly spoke: "You don't have any wind at all?" ”

Li Wei shuddered, and hurriedly said, "A little, I heard that it was with the sergeant who was herding horses in the Qiji Courtyard. Who would dare to cause trouble on their heads? The small ones are just heard. ”

Xu Ping nodded: "Well, you are honest, get up." ”

Li Wei trembled and stood aside.

Xu Ping closed his eyes and ignored him.

Just stood like this and had a cup of tea, Li Wei's hanging heart finally slowly let go, this little evil star heard the news, and it seemed that he had let himself go.

At this moment, Xu Ping suddenly turned around, stared at Li Wei with his eyes shining, and shouted: "You tell me honestly, what are you thinking about when you come to my village to find trouble!" ”

Li Wei was frightened by Xu Ping, knelt down again, and kept kowtowing: "The little official has a good eye, the little one has a dirty mind, and he wants to come to the village to see if there is a chance, cheat some money to make a book, and also go to the immortal master to point it into silver, and ask for a wealth!" ”

Xu Ping's voice was fierce: "I just wanted to cheat, I didn't think about robbing it?!" ”

Li Wei kowtowed vigorously: "The villain just had an idea of robbing in his heart, and he never dared to do it!" Petty officials are discerning! It's a head-killing thing! ”

Xu Ping kicked him to the ground: "Your mother, I knew that you birdman didn't have any good intentions, and your eyes flashed as soon as you met me!" If you don't make it, it's your fate, otherwise it will fall into my hands, and you won't have your share in kowtowing, and I will cut you carefully with a knife! ”

Li Wei was so frightened that his body was weak at this time and he collapsed on the ground.

Gao Daquan was stunned on the side, never expecting to come to this point in the end. Xu Ping beat people half to death, and finally got gracious?

Xu Pingke didn't care what he was thinking, and said to Gao Daquan: "You have heard everything, this guy is dying by himself!" But we're a white family, and we don't care about that, so you get him out, clean up and down, and go out into the courtyard to eat and drink with the others. I said this, he dared to show a little resentment on his face, so he beat him to death with a stick and carried him to the county yamen! If you don't eat and get drunk, you want to leave, and you will be killed! ”

Li Wei looked at Xu Ping, didn't know whether to cry or laugh, and said straightly: "Thank you for your kindness!" ”

Gao Daquan shook his head, and he couldn't tell what was in his heart. Li Wei is naturally looking for death by himself, and Xu Ping's methods are too spicy.

Xu Ping sat in the firewood room, watching Gao Daquan take Li Wei away, and hesitated. Do you want to tell Xiuxiu this bloody story?
