Chapter 83
Song Shang thought for a while and said:
"After dealing with the rogue bandits, there are many things to deal with in the yamen. I think arresting the leader will allow us to go back and resume our lives."
When saying this, Song Shang and Tian Yu also looked a little disappointed.
After these few days of contact, they felt that Lin Xiaofan was quite a good person.
Moreover, here you can eat and drink well every day, and things can be done easily. If possible, he hoped to stay with Lin Xiaofan all his life.
It's a pity that people are in the arena and can't help themselves. When they receive wages from the yamen, they have to do things for the yamen. They will do whatever the yamen orders them to do.
"I wonder how much you two get paid at the Yamen?"
Lin Xiaofan winked at the two of them.
"Our ordinary police officers earn fifteen cents a day. Brother Lin, I wonder why you ask this?"
Before Song Shang could react, he was still a little confused as to why Lin Xiaofan asked this.
Lin Xiaofan was surprised when he heard this answer.
He had long heard that officials' wages were not high, but he did not expect that they earned so little.
After all, he was still working for the government, and he couldn't even support his family.
You know, if a person wants to eat enough for a day, he needs about [-] cents of food.
From this point of view, it's no wonder that the detectives are thinking of making some extra money.
"Brother Song, what do you think of being here with me?"
Lin Xiaofan then asked.
"It's pretty good. I eat and drink well every day, and my life is simple."
Song Shang told the truth.
"I wonder if Brother Song would like to stay with me? I will give you twenty cents a day."
As soon as Lin Xiaofan opened his mouth, he added money.
"what?"
Song Shang was stunned for a moment before he realized that Lin Xiaofan actually wanted to poach him away.
Twenty cents was only a little more than before, but he was in charge of food at Lin Xiaofan's place, and he had meat every meal. Counting the food and wages for a day, it was nearly forty cash.
However, after thinking again and again, he still shook his head and refused.
"Brother Lin, forget it. Although your place is nice, the yamen still has a lot to do. If I follow you, Bao Bao Bao will be much busier than before."
Although it is good to follow Lin Xiaofan, he is also a compassionate and righteous person.
As Bao Tianqing's right-hand man, it was really inappropriate to leave like this.
"Twenty-five cents."
Lin Xiaofan immediately understood what Song Shang meant.
Brotherhood? That’s not enough money!
Seeing Lin Xiaofan's rich and powerful look, Song Shang's face was obviously moved.
Twenty-five cents is almost double what it was before.
But after hesitating for a long time, he still shook his head. Just as he was about to refuse, Lin Xiaofan stretched out three fingers.
"Thirty cents. When I get bigger in the future, your wages will also increase accordingly."
All of a sudden, the wages have doubled.
Tian Yu and Song Shang looked at each other and knelt down on one knee:
"Brother Lin, from now on, we will follow you."
"Brother Lin, from now on, if you say east, we will never go west."
Both of them are relatively stubborn. They don't accept bribes on weekdays, only the fifteen cents of dead wages.
Thirty cents, that directly doubled their wages.
Nowadays, Lin Xiaofan has good food and drinks here, and the wages are good.
If they still insist on staying in the Yamen, they will be sorry for Lin Xiaofan.
As for Bao Baotou, now that the yamen chaos has been resolved, he probably won't be too busy and should be able to cope with it.
The best thing to do is treat him to a few more meals in the future and give him some gifts during the holidays.
Moreover, after the two of them leave, the Yamen can continue to recruit people, and it doesn't have to be them.
Seeing that his sincerity finally impressed them, Lin Xiaofan nodded with satisfaction.
For sixty cents a day, I got two good hands. This transaction is not a loss.
But through this incident, he also realized that the country was really not good enough.
The wages given to officials are so small that they cannot even support their own families. It is no wonder that officials are not corrupt.
……
Li Zhengcai's home.
"Clang clang clang!"
"Brother Cai, open the door quickly, open the door quickly!"
There was a quick knock on the door.
Li Zhengcai was taking a nap in bed. After hearing that it was Li Zhengying calling him, he turned over and stretched, intending to pretend that he was not at home.
Li Zhengying and Li Zhenghua called him just to eat something good. He only slept for a dozen hours today, and he didn't get enough sleep at all. Let’s talk about the meal later.
"Brother Cai, something serious has happened! Open the door quickly."
Hearing that something had happened, Li Zhengcai frowned, stood up and went to open the door.
"What are you doing? You were so surprised."
Li Zhengying and Li Zhenghua didn't care about not opening the door. They hurriedly ran into the yard and looked outside. When they saw no one was following them, they locked the door.
"What's going on? I'm afraid it will be like this. Could it be that a bandit has entered the village? Don't worry, I made an agreement with my distant relative that he will not come to our three homes."
Li Zhengcai spoke calmly.
His distant relatives recognized him and would naturally not come to trouble him. After the work is completed, he will be given some money.
"No, Brother Cai, it's the people from the escort team who are here! Just now, the bandits went to find Lin Xiaofan, and all those bandits were killed. Now, the people from the escort team have found us, and they are probably here to arrest us. Brother , please think of a way, I don’t want to die!”
Li Zhenghua grabbed one of Li Zhengcai's arms and said eagerly, almost kneeling down.
"Kill them all? Then...what? You said all the bandits were killed?"
When Li Zheng came to his senses, his mind went blank.
The escort team organized by Lin Xiaofan was mixed with men and women, and most of them had never seen blood.
Moreover, it has only been established for a few days, and it is estimated that they don’t even have a few knives. How can they beat those strong bandits?
Could it be the two guards beside Lin Xiaofan?
But although those two were stronger, one was missing an arm and the other was missing a leg. It would be great if they could defeat one or two bandits.
After thinking for a long time, he chose not to accept this fact and shook his head slightly:
"Impossible, absolutely impossible! You must have seen it wrong. The people who died are probably all members of the escort team."
Seeing that her eldest brother didn't believe them, Li Zhengying became even more anxious:
"Brother, it's absolutely true. Li Hu, who came all the way to guard the guards, came to our house with a group of people carrying knives. Counting the time, it's almost here."
"Bang bang bang!"
"Li Zhengcai, open the door!"
The roars and the knocking on the door mixed together, immediately startling the three brothers.
"This voice is...Li Hu?"
Only then did Li Zheng realize that his two younger brothers had not lied to him, and the guards were really here. So, were all the bandits really killed?
"Brother, what should we do? This is a capital crime! How about we run away!"
There was a creaking sound from the door, and seeing that he was about to be kicked down, Li Zhenghua suddenly panicked.
Li Zhengcai rolled his eyes a few times and his mind turned around.
Running was definitely not possible. With their physical abilities, if they were caught in a matter of seconds, it would only make them feel guilty.
"Listen, they have no evidence that we did it. As long as we kill those who don't know about it, we can get away with it!"
Li Zhengcai spoke hurriedly.
