Chapter 102 Escort Bureau

After Ye Xuan was about to finish his rice, the waiter who went to inquire about the news finally came back and told Ye Xuan that he had found out that Jiangdu City was a border town in the Western Regions and needed to cross Yumen Pass. It was two or three thousand miles away from Yu'an City. If you want to pass here, it would probably take more than a month to walk, so it would be better to go with some caravans.

Hearing the waiter's words, Ye Xuan couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth. Unexpectedly, the system was once again unreliable. This time he threw him to his destination more than a thousand miles away. What are he planning to do?

After thanking the waiter, he asked some waiter about where the Zhao family was waiting, and then threw a piece of silver to him. After the waiter's enthusiastic farewell, Ye Xuan walked out of the restaurant.

Along the way, you can see some yamen runners posting reward notices on the street, and you can also see another yamen runners looking for someone with a notice, and the person painted on the notice was the bearded man with a scarred face that he had changed before.

Ye Xuan raised the corner of his mouth slightly, then thought for a while, and went to the ready-to-wear shop on the street to buy some clothes and hats from this era. After all, his smart transformation watch has been changed for a limited time, so it is impossible for him to maintain his current appearance all the time, so some necessary disguise is still needed.

After buying these things, Ye Xuan leisurely found an inn and drove a room to live in. After changing his clothes, he sat in the room waiting for the night to come.

Time flies, and night comes, Ye Xuan goes for supper again, then goes back to the room. When it is almost early morning, he opens the window, jumps, jumps down from the building, and sneaks into the darkness.

The next morning, a crying sound came from the Zhao mansion. According to inquiries, the Zhao family was attacked by thieves last night. One night, including the Zhao family's guard and the head of the Zhao family, a total of more than a dozen people died at once. Zhao Zhe, the head of the Zhao family, disappeared, and tens of thousands of taels of silver were robbed in the mansion.

However, this is not the most shocking thing. Not long after, a horrifying news came from the county yamen, that is, this morning, someone actually found two heads hanging high in front of the county yamen gate. These two heads were Zhao Zhe, the head of the Zhao family who had disappeared before and Han Gaoyi, the commander of Yu'an County.

One night, the Zhao family was almost wiped out. The head of the Zhao family and the Yu'an County Magistrate were killed by the owl and hung on the county government. This shocked the entire Yu'an County. It is said that even the magistrate of Yu'an County was so scared that even the county government did not dare to stay silent.

The head of the Zhao family is nothing, but the Yu'an County Magistrate is a person in charge of the safety of a county and has military power. Even such a person was cut off from his head, which is really incredible.

According to those who survived the Zhao family, it is said that the thief who committed the crime was a big man with a big scar on his face and a beard. The people in Yu'an County suddenly remembered the man who stole the pawnshop of the Zhao family yesterday. They all felt shocked and incredible.

No one expected that the Zhao family and the county magistrate who were rampant in Yu'an County would die because of a small thing, and the main cause of this incident was caused by a hairpin.

If the head of the Zhao family and the county magistrate Han knew that the cause of their death would be because the shopkeeper of the Zhao family pawnshop was greedy for a small gold-inlaid hairpin, he would probably be so angry that he crawled out of the coffin and spit out blood and died.

The incident of the Yu County County Magistrate being robbed at night caused a great shock in the entire Cangzhou officialdom. It is said that the Cangzhou Prefect was furious after learning about this. Within a few days, a series of sea capture reward documents flew to all parts of Cangzhou, making this nameless scarred man famous in the entire Cangzhou for a while.

However, these have nothing to do with Ye Xuan. Anyway, he is now wearing a moon-white Confucian uniform, with beautiful eyebrows and elegant demeanor, and no one will associate himself with the scar man.

After resting in the inn for a day, Ye Xuan asked the waiter for some news in the inn.

Although these waiters are inconspicuous, they are in a messy environment like the inn, and they receive countless passers-by every day, and they can get more sources of information than ordinary people.

Sure enough, he found a lot of useful information in this waiter.

Unexpectedly, Hong Chao actually implemented a strict household registration system. If he left the village or wanted to enter the city, he needed to show a household registration system. Even if he was too far away, he needed to show a travel pass given by the government.

If you do not have a travel pass or household registration, as long as you are encountered, you will be arrested by enthusiastic people and sent to the yamen.

As for why the people are enthusiastic, it is because the Hong Dynasty stipulated that as long as a person without a household registration is caught and sent to the yamen, he can get a reward of three taels of silver. If the person is a bandit or a thief, there will be more rewards and no official shall intercept it, otherwise he will be dismissed once he is found.

It is precisely because of these systems that the people of the Hong Dynasty were very alert to strangers.

After learning about this, Ye Xuan couldn't help but feel a little glad that he had appeared in this city before and did not leave rashly. Otherwise, although he would not have been caught as a thief and received a reward, he would definitely be in trouble.

So, within two days, he directly used his money ability to get a household registration from a minor official in charge of household registration in Yu'an County, and then asked the minor official to help him issue a pass, disguising himself as a scholar.

The scholars of the Hong Dynasty were not as powerful as those of the Chinese and Song dynasties. They were all powerless because they inherited some of the Qin dynasties. Although the scholars of the Hong Dynasty could not be said to be both civil and military, they were not weak. The scholars here inherited the Warring States Period and liked to go out for a trip.

This is also the reason why Ye Xuan wanted to pretend to be a scholar. After obtaining his household registration and pass, he continued to use his money ability to find the Yanfeng Escort Agency, one of the three major escort agencies in Cangzhou Prefecture, and spent a full 2,000 taels of silver to send them to Jiangdu.

Of course he could also get on the road, but it was two or three thousand miles away from Jiangdu, and the itinerary alone would take a lot of time to travel on the road. What's more, he was not very familiar with the road in this world. If he ran around, he would easily lose his direction. So after weighing the pros and cons, Ye Xuan decided to hire ancient mercenaries.

In this way, after a little preparation, Ye Xuan sat on a BMW with five experts who were said to be second-rate talents sent by Yanfeng Escort Agency, and then walked out of Yu'an County and headed towards the north...
