County Magistrate Fang was somewhat speechless, Comrade Jiang, this is the government office, can you speak more civilly? You are not a mountain bandit, why address people as 'old man'?
Jiang Qi looked at County Magistrate Zheng: "Sir, let's proceed as San Lang suggested, this indeed seems a good plan, much better than using money from government coffers and getting punished by the Emperor later."
Even if you are from the Zheng Family and have Old Master Zheng's support, you cannot be this willful.
"Alright, let's do as San Lang proposed!" County Magistrate Zheng swept away the exhaustion from a sleepless night and cheerfully said: "San Lang, present all the evidence you've collected; Squad Leader Jiang, immediately bring Elder Shi, Bai Changfu, and the captured people from Bai Village to the court, I need to conduct a hearing and convict them."
After conviction, we can confiscate the Gao family's Silver.
"Understood."
"As you command."
