Chapter 210 Patrol
Both of these policemen looked about forty years old, and they looked like old fry at first glance, and they knew a lot of things. I asked them if there were many refugees from the Ming Dynasty in Yuanxing. Because they gave the money, they answered my questions very happily.
"It's not too much, but it's not too little. You can meet about two or three times a month, and it's like this, all of which are like this, from three or four people to more than a dozen people. When the Capital Security Bureau was still there, they often arrested them, pretending to be a spy from the Ming Dynasty to earn their merits. We sometimes arrested them, but we don't care about this, and we can't make merits if we catch them, so we won't arrest them."
"How did they come?"
"Who knows. The border is more than a thousand miles away from here, and I can walk all the way through this, and there is also Ganger. I guess I heard that we are rich first, Yuanxingcheng is the richest, and even the toilet is used to wash cattle and goat milk. I want to come here to make a living."
"Wow, it won't be so evil, right?"
"This is pretty good. In our country, there are some poor and smokey places. We said that our Yuanxing is paving the floor, building the walls of gold bricks, and taking a bath with honey. Just a few days ago, we caught a thief, who came from such a place. When we were caught, this guy scolded him and said that he had been deceived and had been deceived and shouldn't have come here, and he had finished having fun."
"You are catching the thief? The thief must be a wealthy family, right?"
"That's not. The thief was so bad. Not only did he steal money, he also kidnapped one of his maids. When he was caught, he had already ruined the man and strangled him to death. Grandma! This beast! After he was caught, we were beaten up very quickly! If it weren't for the master's family saying that he wanted to live, we would all want to beat him to death!"
"What to live? Why do you live?"
"What else can you do? I'll be castrated. It's just that during the Chinese New Year, people don't want to get into bad luck, so they'll be sent back after castration. The boss didn't want to waste bullets, so they just hanged them."
These two policemen should be old partners. When I asked, they answered each other once, and they had a very tacit understanding. I felt that the topic was a bit off, so I pulled the topic back and continued to ask.
"Do they care about the people of the Ming Dynasty running out?"
"It must be taken care of. If the poor are gone, who will they bully? But you have to ask them the specific matters, we don't know."
"You haven't tried them?"
"I was bored at the beginning and was playing with it. Later I found that I couldn't find anything and there was no oil or water yet, so I didn't have any effort to get rid of it."
"Then they said they had never said that, how did they come all the way after they crossed the border?"
"Often I take dry food and food to the side, but I run out of it halfway and I can only beg for food. I can get to the place if I have good luck, but I will die if I have bad luck."
"So that's the case. Then why do you hit them? Just because they are from the Ming Dynasty?"
"Where can it be? When I was young, I might have fought like this. Now I am so old, how can I still fight?"
The talking policeman carried the solid wooden stick and turned his head and said.
"You don't know that these Ming people are so angry that they are not worth their lives! They have said it ten thousand times, don't come to the street, don't come to the street, you have to come! They also specifically ask wealthy people for money! Isn't this causing us trouble!"
Each group of patrol police has its own jurisdiction. If something happens in the jurisdiction, the patrol police will be held responsible. The so-called accident is not a case, but someone complains. Complaints are not a good thing for everyone. It must be a complaint from rich and powerful people. Once the patrol police are complained, they may be fined for salary or even expelled.
Policemen who work as patrolmen often have no background. No one dares to offend anyone except the real ordinary people. This is a chore. No matter how hard they work or how many cases they solve, as long as there is no one in the superior or not giving money and gifts to them, it is basically impossible to get promoted. Moreover, the patrolmen have less fuel and no matter how hard they work, they can get money when they take tasks.
The patrol officer's oil and water are basically limited to collecting protection fees from vendors who set up stalls on the roadside. In Yuanxing City, people who can be businessmen cannot afford to offend the patrol officers. Even if they run grocery stores, pasta shops, or those who can't afford to offend the patrol officers, they either have people who can't afford to offend the patrol officers or those who can't afford to offend the patrol officers behind their backs, so how dare the patrol officers provoke them?
When my father and grandma set up stalls, they were bullied by patrol officers a lot. Because of this, I hate the police so much, especially the patrol officers. If it weren't for this, I wouldn't have taken the initiative to plot against the two idiot patrol officers who regarded me as beggars.
But now I have thought about it. My family will never be bullied by the patrol police again, so I don’t need to be angry with them anymore. Although the patrol police are the lowest-level existence of the police system, the most inconspicuous and the easiest to bully, they also have their advantages, such as being well-informed and doing things as you give money, which is very easy to use.
"So you want to kill the chicken to show the monkey?"
"Hey, look at what you said. When we kill chickens, we have to see monkeys? People in the Ming Dynasty are not everywhere, and we can only see a bunch of them at a time. We beat them, who will we call them? We are just angry! Come every month, come every month! Everyone is different every time! I am so annoyed! If I don't beat them, I will vent my anger sooner or later I will get sick!"
There are two police stations on Changsheng Street, one of which is not far from us. Speaking of this, the police station has arrived. At this time, one of the patrol officers turned his head and said to me.
"Principal, don't blame me for being too late. We are just small patrolmen and do not have the right to open an interrogation room. If you want to use the interrogation room, you have to discuss it with the people in the bureau."
"Yeah, I know."
I nodded distractedly. I knew they were just small patrolmen, so from the beginning, I didn't plan to do everything with ten dollars. The ten dollars were given to them. Although it was a bit too much, there was nothing I could do because I didn't have change. I couldn't give them ten dollars and let them find me five dollars, right? I can't afford that person.
It is precisely because I don’t have change and can’t stop the car, so I walked to the Yujiang family before. During the Chinese New Year, the coachman does not rest. During the Chinese New Year, the number of travel is very large, and I have to grab the car. If I can’t grab it, I can only walk.
The reason why I have to waste time and money to interrogate these Ming people is, on the one hand, because I am very curious about why these Ming people came to Daxian and came to Yuanxing. On the other hand, I am very interested in the Ming Kingdom and want to learn about some things about the Ming Kingdom from these Ming people.
The first question is that the two patrol officers have answered these Ming people, and they should be almost inseparable. The second question cannot be explained in just a few words. You must find a place to have a good talk with these Ming people. I can't take these unknown guys to the Yujiang family and talk to them there, right?
It is okay to take them back to the Nanqiao Military Camp, but the Nanqiao Military Camp is much further away from the police station, and the Yujiang family is in this direction. I don’t want to go back and forth, and I want to get along with the people from the police system, so I spent money to hire these two policemen to help and rent their interrogation room.
After sending me to the police station, the two patrol officers helped to lead a line and then went back to patrol. When the police in the bureau saw that I was a young colonel, they treated me as a wealthy financial supporter with backgrounds and directly brought me tea and snacks to entertain me. I said I wanted to use the interrogation room, but they borrowed it without saying a word and even gave me some help to make a bad face.
What surprised me was that these services were free. The director of this branch was very good at doing business - why did I say that? The reason was very simple. After I asked, he came to me personally to talk to me and said that if you need help in the future, you can call him at any time. As long as you report your name, the attendance fee will be 10% off.
