Zhao Ziliang and his bodyguard Xiao Qin followed Bai Zhanpeng and a group of boys and girls, and soon arrived at the gate of the Xishi Government Office.
At this time, the gate of the Xishi Government Office was already filled with people.
These were all people wandering and having fun in the West Market.
When these spectators saw someone being escorted into the West City Government Office, of course they all came to watch the excitement.
Zhao Ziliang grabbed a middle-aged rich man who looked like a member of the Communist Party of China and asked him: "This dear friend, what is going on inside?
Why do so many people come to watch?"
The rich man was obviously a well-informed person.
He raised his hand and said in return: "Brother, you are asking about this.
I know.
I just followed you here to watch the excitement.
The incident happened in Wang Dagui's paper shop outside the city.
This Wang Dagui has someone outside the city.
A paper factory employs hundreds of workers.
He also has a shop in the West City that sells paper made by his own paper factory.
Wang Dagui’s paper factory The quality of the paper produced is even better than that of rice paper from the Central Plains.
In fact, their family moved from Xuancheng.
They have been doing this business before, and they are still engaged in this business after moving to West Qin. , their paper mill is the largest in our Western Qin, and the paper produced is of the best quality.
The man who was just arrested into the office is a big cannibal, what is his name?
Doula is said to be a clerk at Wang Dagui's paper mill.
Abdullah has been working in their paper mill for more than two years.
Today, Wang Dagui was checking the accounts in the paper shop in the West City.
It happened that Abdullah had made the paper mill.
The paper was brought to the store for sale.
While carrying the paper, a roll of sheepskin fell from Abdullah's arms, with detailed information on the paper's production process densely written on it.
Cheng, Wang Dagui is also a man who has been around for a long time.
When he was young, he followed the caravan to the Dashi Country and the Flynn Country.
He knew some Dashi characters.
He saw that the detailed craftsmanship of his own paper mill was written on the sheepskin.
The process was okay, so I asked two guys to arrest Abdullah on the spot and take him all the way to the office, saying that they wanted to sue Abdullah for stealing their family's papermaking technology."
"That's it."
Zhao Ziliang nodded after hearing this, and then asked, "I don't know how to punish such a crime."
The middle-aged rich man shook his head and said: "It's hard to say.
How the sentence will be decided depends on the attitude of the presiding officer.
In this case, the crime may be light or serious.
If the presiding officer only decides one For a simple crime of theft, the punishment is not severe.
You can be imprisoned for a few months at most and be released after a fine of some money.
However, if the presiding officer wants to For heavy processing, you can also start from the value of the stolen items.
If you only steal a few silver coins, of course there is no big problem, but this time the theft was papermaking technology, which is very unusual.
Everyone knows the papermaking technology.
It’s worth a lot of money.
Wang Dagui’s family is extremely rich now, all thanks to this papermaking technology.”
Zhao Ziliang listened thoughtfully.
At this time, officials from the administrative office appeared at the door and said to the victim Wang Dagui, the defendant Abdullah and the crowd of onlookers: "This is the administrative office of the West City.
It is only responsible for the daily operation of the western market and is not responsible for public security and criminal cases.
If it is For security and criminal cases, please go to the county government office.

Since the defendant was caught on the spot, I can send a few government officials to escort the defendant to the county government office.
I will not care about the rest of the matter here.
Everything will be handled by the county government office.
Everyone It’s all gone” The crowd of onlookers thought there was fun to be seen, but they did not expect that the case would have to go to the county government office for trial.
After several soldiers escorted Abdullah towards the county government office, some people followed behind and went to the county government office.
Zhao Ziliang also followed.
He wanted to see how Hengluosi County Government tried this case.
Guard Xiao Qin caught up and said, "Sir, the thief was caught on the spot.
If he was sent to the county government, there would be no need for a trial.
The order will definitely be passed down directly, there will be nothing exciting to watch.”
Zhao Ziliang said: "This may be fine if only a little money is stolen, but what is stolen is papermaking technology.
This papermaking technology brings us more than one million yuan in tax revenue to Western Qin every year.
How can we take it away?"
It's on par with a regular burglary."
The development of the matter seemed a bit unexpected.
After the county government received the complaint, the county magistrate Liu Rong quickly accepted the case.
After all, it was just a theft case, and the person who committed the theft was caught on the spot.
It seemed that this case did not need to be tried at all. ,but "Ascension" Liu Rong, wearing an official robe and sitting upright under a high mirror, gave a startled look: "Bring the criminal and the accuser."
Immediately, a government official shouted loudly: "Bring in the criminal and the accuser!"
The government officials shouted: "Mighty" Wang Dagui and Abdullah were brought to court.
Under the questioning of the county magistrate Liu Rong, Wang Dagui and Abdullah successively disclosed their lives and identities.
After hearing this, Liu Rong frowned and asked: "Defendant, I see that you look like a big cannibal."
Abdullah, who was kneeling on the ground, replied: "Yes, my lord."
"Then are you a foodie from our Western Qin tribe, or a foodie from the country of food?"
Of course, Liu Rong's question was not unnecessary.
There were also Dashi tribesmen who lived in Western Qin and had become Western Qin people.
Although the number was not large, there were still thousands of them.
"Returning to your lord, I am a big cannibal from a big food country.
I lost money on business in Western Qin a few years ago and had no money to go home, so I stayed in Western Qin."
This case involves foreigners, so things are a bit troublesome.
Liu Rong is not afraid that his judgment will cause any diplomatic disputes, but after all, cases involving foreigners should be more cautious to avoid unnecessary trouble for himself. .
Liu Rong asked Wang Dagui again: "Plaintiff, what are you suing him for?"
Wang Dagui saluted and said: "Sir, this Abdullah lived on the street two years ago.
The villain saw that he was pitiful, so he took him in, gave him food and clothes, and arranged for him to work in my paper mill.
But he didn't expect this.
This person actually has ulterior motives and wants to steal my family’s papermaking technology.
This is what he brought from the papermaking factory or came to the store just now. , it fell from his body when he was carrying goods, and it recorded the details of my family's papermaking technology.
Only now did the villain understand that he had already had the idea of my family's papermaking technology before he entered my family's papermaking factory.
He was deliberately pretending.
It's pity to win the sympathy of the villain.
This is a premeditated request for the adults to make decisions for the villain."
Liu Rong did not read the content of papermaking on the sheepskin.
It was a technical secret after all.
Regardless of the fact that this thing was now an exhibit, it was put on the desk.
Liu Rong asked: "Uncle Wang, you said that the thing was on Abdullah's body."

Did you see it with your own eyes when it fell?”
Wang Dagui replied: "Yes, sir" "Is there any witness?"
"Of course there is.
In addition to the villain, there were four clerks, a shopkeeper and three customers in the store at that time.
They can all testify."
Liu Rong immediately said: "Come here, call these witnesses to come and testify."
"Yes, sir," a policeman agreed loudly, and immediately went out to summon witnesses.
Several clerks and shopkeepers from Wang Dagui's store came soon.
They all testified that the evidence fell from Abdullah's body, but the three customers who were present to buy paper did not show up.
Liu Rong asked Abdullah: "Defendant, do you plead guilty?"
Abdullah rolled his eyes and said, "Sir, I do not admit that this thing did not fall from my body at all."
Liu Rong pointed to Wang Dagui, the display cabinet of the paper shop and the four clerks and said: "But they all testified that the mulberry fell from your body.
If only one person testifies against you, then this witness may not have seen it clearly.
If there are only two If you testify personally, then can they accuse you unjustly?
, but so many people have pointed out that the evidence fell from you.
If you continue to refuse to admit it, you are deliberately denying it.
If you admit it openly, I can consider giving you a lighter sentence, but if you just act rogue and refuse If you don't admit it, I will punish you."
Abdullah immediately said: "Sir, you are treating things unfairly.
I don't accept that you bully me as a big cannibal.
You gang up to bully me, a foreigner, and I don't accept it."
Liu Rong's face darkened when he heard this, and he was shocked and shouted: "Bold me, I always do things fairly, but you say that I am unfair.
I ask you, what is the reason why I am unfair?
If you can't tell me why, don't blame me."
I will punish you severely."
Abdullah pointed at the shopkeeper and the four waiters and said: "He and the four of them are all Wang Dagui's people.
They work for him, take the wages he gives, carry the rice bowl he gives, and of course speak for him.
A few of them How can we trust the testimony of these people who are all in the same group?”
The people watching outside nodded after hearing this, and some people commented: "Yes, these people are either Wang Dagui's shopkeepers or his associates.
Although these people can testify, their testimony cannot be a key factor in the judgment of this case unless We can bring in three other guests to testify.”
After listening to Abdullah's words, Liu Rong felt that he could not believe all the testimonies of these people.
It would be biased, so he said: "The defendant's words are not unreasonable.
Let's put this case to rest for the time being.
After finding the other three guests, we will select a date to re-interrogate the guests, put the defendant into the detention room for custody, and withdraw from the court."
"Mighty" all the government officials shouted in unison.
After Abdullah was taken away, the crowd of onlookers began to disperse, and some people were still talking: "If we can't find the three guests who were present at the time, I'm afraid this case will not come to a conclusion, and in the end it will be in vain.
Release your sins” Someone said: "It's hard to tell about this kind of thing.
Maybe it's Wang Dagui, the shopkeeper and his guys who framed the big cannibal."
"Impossible?
Wang Dagui is a famous person and a rich man in Hengluosi.
I have never heard of any bad deeds of this man in the past.
I only heard that he has been doing good deeds.
Every year he donates money and materials to fellow villagers who have just migrated from the Central Plains.
This is a kind person, he wouldn’t do such a thing.”
"Who knows if he is one thing on the surface but another behind the scenes?
There are no such people":
