After the trial of the case ended, the county magistrate Yang Guangting personally sent Wang Jian out of the county government office.
He stopped where he was, waiting for the carriage to go away, and then walked back to the county government office with a dark face.
Today is really unlucky. I originally slept comfortably in the back hall, but I didn’t expect to encounter such a mess.
Moreover, it also involves the current celebrity Wang Jian, which could cost his life.
I can’t be lazy in the next few days. This matter can’t be ignored. The result must be found out.
"Come here, call Lieutenant Bao over." Yang Guangting waved his sleeves and said to the county soldiers on the side.
Soon, the county soldier and a burly middle-aged man walked in.
"My lord, the county magistrate." County Lieutenant Bao Lizhang respectfully saluted with clasped fists.
"Take your men and follow me to the Wang's Store in Dongshi. We will tell you the specific reasons on the way." Yang Guangting looked serious and walked directly out of the county government office after speaking.
Dongshi, Majiazhuang Farm Tools Shop.
As the case comes to light, the people have more trust in the Zhenguan plow sold in Majiazhuang.
People who had not yet bought a plow rushed into the store and began to rush to buy it.
At the entrance of Wang’s shop and Cui’s shop, which also sell plows.
Two old men in brocade clothes stood at the gate, staring at the Majiazhuang shop.
"This group of bastards who have little success but more than failure can't even manage a small farm tools shop in Majiazhuang."
The old man surnamed Wang gritted his teeth, making a dark sound. There was a bit of sharpness in his eyes.
Then the two of them looked at each other and walked towards the same place in unison.
After Wang Jian left the county government, he drove directly to Ma Zhou's mansion.
In the study, Wang Jian and Ma Zhou sat opposite each other.
Most of the tea on the table has been drunk, and it is obvious that the two have been talking for some time.
"Brother Wang, are you saying that these thugs were instigated by merchants, and that there was someone else behind the merchants?" Ma Zhou breathed a sigh of relief after listening to Wang Jian's story.
The amount of information here is too great, and it also involves court officials.
Wang Jian nodded and said in a deep voice.
"Except me and the person who will be the supervisor, no one else could know about the making of the Zhenguan plow so quickly."
"Our Majiazhuang Zhenguan plow has just been sold. By the fifth day, other shops were selling aggressively, and according to the information obtained by the servants, they still had a lot of inventory."
"If we didn't know and make it in advance, there would be no way there would be so much inventory. "
After listening to Wang Jian's analysis, Ma Zhou believed that this guess was very likely.
"Brother Wang, what are you going to do?"
"Find out the master behind it, collect the evidence, and see firstLet’s see who is behind the scenes. "
The two shops are now at odds with each other. It would be okay if the people behind the shop are our own, but if they are hostile people, they will definitely come back with revenge.
"Okay, this Leave the matter to me to investigate. Ma Zhou said emphatically with a serious look on his face.
He is the censor of Yushitai, and he has the responsibility of supervising all officials. It is most appropriate for him to investigate.
Send Wang Jian to After going out, Ma Zhou returned to the study alone.
He paced back and forth in the study with his hands behind his back, thinking deeply about how to proceed with the investigation.
"Maybe. With the help of Wannian County Government. "
The Wannian County Government dealt with all kinds of people, and had a lot of information.
With a breakthrough, Ma Zhou put on his clothes and walked outside.

"Husband, where are you going so late? Dinner is almost ready. "Wang Lao saw Ma Zhou going out in the kitchen and ran out and shouted to him.
"You eat first, I will be back in about half an hour. "Ma Zhou waved his hand and walked out without looking back.
"What a busy man. "Wang Lao shook her head, and then smiled sweetly.
Her husband is not only talented, but also very caring about his family, and he will not go out to mess around.
She is born with a willow body. , I am truly blessed to be able to marry such an excellent husband.
Two days later, Wannian County Magistrate Yang Guangting went to the County Marquis Mansion in person.
" Mr. Hou, I found it out. "Yang Guangting said respectfully to Wang Jian.
This chapter is not finished, click on the next page to continue reading.
"County Magistrate Yang is so efficient, he is simply a model for all officials. "Wang Jian raised his head slightly, surprised by his efficiency.
When he saw Magistrate Yang at the county office two days ago, his work attitude was very lazy. Wang Jian thought he would be dawdling for a while. Only then can the case be settled.
"I am ashamed to be a low-ranking official. "Yang Guangting's face was slightly happy, and then he humbly handed over his hand.
He reported the results of the county government's investigation to Wang Jian.
"Master Hou, these gangsters Under the instructions of the shopkeepers of Wang's Shop and Cui's Shop, the purpose is to destroy the reputation of Majiazhuang Farm Tools Shop. ”
“The reason why they did this is because these two shops are also selling plows, and because of the poor quality, no one is interested. "
"Xiaguan has detained the shopkeepers of these two shops this morning. "
After Yang Guangting finished speaking, there was a bit of hesitation on his face.
"Although the shopkeepers of these two shops were the instigators behind the scenes, after all, they only committed the crime of provoking quarrels and provoking trouble. According to the general law, Tang law decreed the maximum punishment. ”
“What I can do is to imprison them for one day and give them a penalty each as a warning to others.” ”
After Yang Guangting finished speaking, he raised his head and quietly glanced at Wang Jian's expression. He felt relieved when he saw that his face was calm.
After a while, Wang Jian slowly spoke.
"Thank you, Magistrate Yang. I am very satisfied with the result." Wang Jian said calmly.
"As long as the Marquis is satisfied, if there is nothing important, I will leave first." After Yang Guangting finished speaking, he quickly stood up and said goodbye.
Watching his leaving figure, Wang Jian narrowed his eyes.
Wang Jian was naturally dissatisfied with this result, because Yang Guangting closed the case hastily without conducting an in-depth investigation.
Although he is a county magistrate, he is also an old man.
If you don’t go into details, you won’t offend the big boss behind you, and if you find out the minions and take advantage of them, you can also block Wang Jian’s mouth.
Not long after Yang Guangting left, Ma Zhou also came to the County Marquis Mansion.
In the study, Ma Zhouyi said with a happy face, "Brother Wang, I have found out this matter."
"The name of the shopkeeper of Wang's shop is Wang Hongli, who belongs to the Wang family in Taiyuan. He is relatively close to the servant Wang Gui."
"The name of the shopkeeper of Cui's shop is Cui Xi, who is from the Cui family of Qinghe and comes from the same lineage as Cui Yixuan, the minister of Zuosi."

The county magistrate Yang Guangting had something. When Ma Zhou asked him for information, he vaguely revealed the identity and background of the two shopkeepers.
Following the clues he gave, Ma Zhou quickly found out the person behind the scenes.
"It turned out to be these two old dogs, no wonder they moved so fast." Wang Jian suddenly understood and nodded.
The servant Wang Gui was not only in charge of the province, but also served as the crown prince's right concubine, and had great power in the court.
Moreover, he also relied on the big tree of Taiyuan Wang family, and his power and money reached their peak.
Although Zuosi Langzhong Cui Yixuan was only a fifth-rank official, he was after all one of the core personnel of Shangshu Province. Moreover, he was born in the Cui family of Qinghe, so his power should not be underestimated.
"Brother Wang, if people from the county prince's mansion are involved in business, Wang Gui may impeach you tomorrow on this ground." Ma Zhou reminded Wang Jian worriedly.
The only result for officials doing business is to be dismissed from office.
"It doesn't matter. Wang Gui and Cui Yixuan's tribe are also doing business. At worst, both sides will suffer." Wang Jian said nonchalantly.
When he opened the Majiazhuang Farm Tools Shop, he forgot to ask Wang Tianqi and others to move out of the County Marquis Mansion, but now he dug a big hole for himself.
If he was accused of trading ginseng in Yushitai, he would definitely have no problem finding Changsun Wugao to exonerate him.
But if this happens, all the officials will point their finger at Changsun Wuji. Not to mention that His Majesty is displeased, Changsun Wuji will also be offended.
"Brother Ma, please don't make any noise about this matter. I have my own arrangements." Wang Jian warned.
Wang Gui and Cui Yixuan, two people who are determined to take revenge, are here again.Wang Jian suffered such a big loss and could not let it go.
In this case, let’s fight until both sides suffer and drag Wang Gui and Cui Yixuan into the water.
Wang Jian is supported by Li Chengqian, Fang Xuanling and others, and he also has the horseshoe, an artifact that can make meritorious deeds.
Even if he is dismissed from office this time, he will be reinstated before long.
"If you don't want to let go of your children, you can't trap the wolf, so why not take this opportunity to drag these two old dogs into the water!"
"We can also remove this big mountain like Wang Gui. Stimulate the Taiyuan Wang family."
Wang Jian was brewing this big plan in his heart, and his eyes gradually became sharp.
