Li Muwen slammed the gavel, and the three of them fell silent, and the voices of discussion outside the hall also disappeared. Everyone knew that Li Muwen was going to sentence the three people.

There is no doubt that Yang He will be sentenced to death. For this heinous crime, he does not even have to wait until the autumn to be executed, but can be executed immediately.

But everyone wanted to know whether the prefect would punish Yang Di and Xu Baoer. Although they did not actually participate in the murder, they both indirectly caused the death of Old Man Yang's family. How to judge them became a difficult problem for Li Muwen.

Li Muwen was familiar with a large number of legal provisions. He thought about it carefully and asked Lin Zirui to give the confession to the three people for signature. Then Li Muwen finally issued a verdict on the three people.

After slamming the gavel again, Li Muwen said loudly: "The prisoner Yang He, for killing five members of Old Man Yang's family, is a serious crime. With the testimony of witnesses, evidence and evidence, he is sentenced to death and will be executed on a certain day."

When the people in the hall heard the verdict, they all cheered. Li Muwen slammed the gavel again, and everyone quieted down.

Li Muwen continued, "Yang Di framed Xu Baoer for his own selfish desires and indirectly killed his own family of five. He was unfilial to his parents and unrespectful to his brothers. This morning, he attempted to commit murder again and ignored the law. He is sentenced to imprisonment in the mine for thirty years."

The criminals detained in the mine not only have their freedom restricted, but also have to mine ore all year round. There are special people to guard them. The people guarding are not the runners of the prefectural government office, but soldiers. So even though no one has been in the prefectural government office for half a year, there is still no chaos there, and copper mining is going on as usual.

Of course, this copper mine was completely managed by the military, and none of the mined copper would reach the hands of the governor of Liangzhou Prefecture.

Hearing Li Muwen's verdict on Yang Di, the people in the hall couldn't help but shudder, but thinking about what Yang Di had done, everyone felt that he should be sentenced severely.

Finally, everyone turned their attention to Xu Baoer. Xu Baoer was a little pitiful. She was framed by Yang Di innocently, and her unintentional words prompted Yang He to kill her. But if you say that she is completely innocent, no one thinks so, the judgment for her should be the most difficult.

Everyone waited quietly. Even though Xu Baoer was very scared, she did not cry or shout. She just knelt on the ground with her head down, nervously waiting for Li Muwen's verdict.

Li Muwen said loudly: "Although Xu Baoer did not intentionally instigate Yang He, you should know that trouble comes from the mouth. She must be punished. She is sentenced to 30 slaps on the face, and the sentence is immediate."

After saying that, he signaled his two female officers to slap Xu Baoer in the face. After thirty slaps, Xu Baoer's face was swollen, but fortunately, there was no damage to the skin.

The people in the hall were once again convinced by Li Muwen's judgment, but at the same time they also felt a sense of fear. With such a perceptive governor, they must not commit crimes. In the end, the story spread from one person to another, and became more and more mysterious. The people in Liangzhou City said that Li Muwen was a great judge and the god of literature, and they respected him even more. Once Li Muwen's decree was issued, it could be implemented at the fastest speed in Chengdu, Liangzhou Prefecture.

When the people of Liangzhou Prefecture learned that the caravan that had recently been selling goods from Yongzhou Prefecture in the city was established by the prefect's wife, more people came to the shops to buy things, and more people wanted to join this caravan.

Yunfang also felt that it was time to expand the caravan, but she couldn't just recruit people blindly, there had to be certain restrictions. With the current capabilities of her caravan, if they wanted to be self-sufficient and she didn't have to pay extra money to support them, they could only have 50 people at most. She already had 20 people, so now she could only recruit 30 more.

The ten people recruited in Liangzhou Prefecture were not capable enough, and the only ones who were really useful were the ten people who came with her from the capital. Yun Fang felt a headache when she thought about it. If she wanted to buy alfalfa seeds and drive back enough lambs before next spring, her caravan would have to train at least 200 people, and they must be 200 people with good abilities.

But the road is made step by step. You can't rush it. You have to do it step by step.

It was now midsummer, and the wheat in the fields was indeed more than in previous years. Everyone had a slightly relaxed look on their faces, and the people became more and more respectful of Li Muwen.

On that day, a notice was posted at the entrance of Yunfang's Yun's Trading Company, which read: Yun's Trading Company is going to expand and needs more people to join the caravan. The caravan needs healthy people between the ages of 18 and 25, a total of 30 people are needed, and the salary will be discussed in person. Those who want to join Yun's Trading Company should go to the entrance of Yun's Trading Company at 9:00 pm three days later to participate in the selection. Those who come to participate in the selection must bring their household registration and have the village head come as a guarantor.

The people in Liangzhou City were still illiterate as before, but this time when they saw the notice they did not ignore it as before.

They gathered around the notice, and every quarter of an hour someone came out to read the content of the notice. In this way, everyone who came and went at the entrance of Yun's Trading Company knew about the notice, and within three days, it spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred, and almost all the young people who met the requirements knew about it. Not many people had the courage to participate in the selection, but even so, after three days, about three hundred people came to the entrance of Yun's Trading Company.

Yunfang was already in the middle stage of her pregnancy, and the baby in her belly did not cause her any discomfort. Accompanied by Li Muwen, Yunfang also came to Yun's Trading Company that day.

Numerous assessment checkpoints had already been set up outside the Yun's Trading Company.

The first level is to test your physical condition. You have to be able to lift four-fifths of your body weight to pass. After passing, you have to run 60 meters within ten seconds.

In this way, only eighty people were left who passed the physical test, and then it was a brain test. These people were illiterate, and some of them couldn't even count, but Yunfang felt that it didn't matter, she could teach them.

The important thing is to pick out those with better concentration and memory. Yun Fang brought the remaining eighty people into the Yun's Trading Company and gave each of them a piece of paper with twenty words written on it.

Yun Fang said, "I will ask someone to read these twenty words non-stop. If anyone can remember how to read these twenty words first, the first thirty people who pass the test will become a member of my Yun's Company."

Everyone was very excited when they heard such a request. They could not read a single word, but they all knew that this opportunity could change their destiny, so they must go all out.

The first person to recognize all twenty words was a woman among the eighty people, named Shen Jiani. This greatly stimulated the people present, and everyone worked harder. Finally, within a quarter of an hour, thirty people learned all twenty words.
