Chapter 1568: Hefty Price

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The 45 people hired by Stone Village had gone to post and send out missing person notices. Jiang Yue and Xue Yan were not idle either. They planned to make a trip to Dianhe County to investigate the heavy taxes.

They wanted to go to the county to see if they could find any clues. They also wanted to visit the county office at night. They knew they couldn’t go back to Stone Village tonight. They didn’t know if they could come back tomorrow night. They will have to come back the day after tomorrow. The day after tomorrow, they would go back to Stone Village to pay everyone’s wages and return to Da Ling.

Therefore, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan asked Zhang Dazhu and his son to help them take care of their courtyard. When they were not in the village, if someone did not have enough missing person notices and came back to get them, they could take it from their place. The missing person notices were all in the central room and were packed in wooden boxes.

Then Jiang Yue and Xue Yan went to Dianhe County.

Jiang Yue’s horse was very energetic after drinking the water in the space and did not know what fatigue was. Knowing this, Xue Yan did not make the horse go very fast. When they arrived at the county, it was already noon.

They asked the passersby where the county government was, and then they came to the county government. They only took a look from afar and changed their course. Then, they found an inn near the county government to stay.

The carriage was led by the inn’s waiter to the barn at the back. The inn would help take care of the horses. When the time came, they would pay for the horse rental in the bill together.

Moreover, he had already given them a silver ingot.

There were also people from the village who came to the county to put up missing person notices. They had seen the two, but they did not go over to greet them. There were many people there, and it was not easy for the carriage to go over.

When Jiang Yue and Xue Yan were staying in an inn in the county, a waiter came back from Treasure Bank in Yaoshui Town with a piece of paper in his hand.

“What are you holding?” The shopkeeper asked.

“I’m looking for someone.” The waiter smiled. It was just posted outside, so I took one. I can’t read. I only heard that it had the word Xue or something. Some of them are even pasted on the walls.”

The shopkeeper took a look and smiled. “This missing person notice is strange. Xue Dafu, Liu Guixia, Xue Yihu, Xue Erhu, Xue Sanhu, Xue Sihu, and Xue Wuhu. Are they looking for these people? It doesn’t seem like it. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have all these names up. However, the higher-ups didn’t say anything. There only have these names. This… this must be from Stone Village… The Xue family… Forget it, I don’t know. However, this paper is not bad. I have never seen this kind of paper before. I guess those papermakers have recently created new paper. The words on it are quite clear. I’ve never seen anything better than this. I don’t know which gentleman helped to write it before it was printed. It must have cost a lot of money to get these things. It seems that the Xue family has some high family background in Stone Village.”

“They must have, but not that much. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be living in that village,” the shop assistant said.

“That’s true.” The shopkeeper nodded and immediately threw this matter to the back of his mind. However, when he thought of the two people he lost yesterday, he could not help but complain. “How did you lose them?”

Yes, it was this guy who came back after receiving the missing person notice. He secretly followed Jiang Yue and Xue Yan yesterday and then lost them.

The shop assistant immediately smiled. “Listen, you can’t blame me for this. They came to exchange so much gold, but they refused to tell us more details about themselves. When they left, they must have been paying attention to prevent anyone from following them. They might have thought of a strategy to avoid people. That’s how I lost them.”
