"I can't possibly say that!"
Cheng Si said angrily.
"Yeah?"
Li Changsheng did not believe that Cheng Si was not afraid of death. Unless he was a real death warrior, there were many ways to make Cheng Si speak.
I saw Li Changsheng torture Cheng Si using some ancient criminal methods from previous lives, such as pulling out nails, peeling skin, etc.
The results had just begun, but Cheng Si couldn't bear it anymore.
"I said, I said, please give me a pleasure."
Cheng Si was so frightened that he shouted quickly.
"Tell me." Li Changsheng said.
"It was the third young master of the Cheng family who asked me to arrest you."
Cheng Si betrayed Cheng Xu, the third young master of the Cheng family.
"Cheng family?"
Li Changsheng didn't know much about this family. After asking around, he found out how powerful the Cheng family was. The Cheng family had hundreds of people, and many guards and servants. There were quite a few warriors, and even ancestors of the fifth level. , there are several sixth-grade warriors, and even more seventh-grade warriors.
There is no doubt that the Cheng family is a huge force for Li Changsheng, which he cannot shake.
"Which forces do the Cheng family have bad relations with?"
Li Changsheng asked again.
And Cheng Si also said it, naming all the forces that the Cheng family couldn't deal with.
After that, Li Changsheng asked a few more questions before ending the other person's life with a sword.
"There's some trouble this time. Three of the Cheng family's guards died here. No matter what the reason is, the Cheng family will definitely not let me go!"
Li Changsheng knew very well how ruthless these aristocratic families were, and it was useless to reason with them.
His original idea was to make some money, buy some good martial arts, and grow up.
But as long as you want to make money, you have to touch other people's interests, which will lead to trouble.
It seems that no matter what I do, I can't avoid getting into trouble.
"We must find a backer so that the third young master of the Cheng family will be afraid to deal with me!"
Li Changsheng thought to himself.
There are only seven or eight forces that can make the Cheng family worry, but even if he joins these forces, they still cannot protect him as long as he is not taken seriously.
According to Cheng Si's story and his own inference, there is only one force that can protect him now.
"yamen!"
The Yangcheng government office is undoubtedly one of the most powerful forces, backed by the Daqi Dynasty. Even though the Daqi Dynasty is now crumbling, at least it has not really affected Bailong County and Yangcheng.
At the very least, within a year, the Yangcheng government will still be reliable.
And giving him a year is enough for him to grow up.
Yamen positions can be bought, but they require a certain background. Many good positions are very popular, so he can't even think of taking them.
However, some positions do not have so many requirements and can be filled by paying money. This position is that of a police officer.
Being a yamen agent is a job that is both easy and dangerous.
As long as there is nothing to do, you can be idle, but if you encounter dangerous work, the police will be the first to go.
Especially in troubled times, the death rate of police officers is extremely high.
However, the status of the police officer was not low, and the Cheng family did not dare to kill the Yamen policeman rashly, otherwise the Yamen would be offended.
"I'll buy a job as an agent tomorrow!"
Li Changsheng decided.
Immediately, he disposed of the three corpses and threw them into the Yang River not far away.
Even if the Yamen discovered these three corpses, it would be impossible to find out who did it, and it would be even less likely for the Cheng family to come forward and say it.
After taking care of it, Li Changsheng returned to the house and saw Chen Yuelian already sitting there.
"Sister-in-law, you wake up."
Li Changsheng guessed that the sound of fighting just now alerted his sister-in-law.
Chen Yuelian asked worriedly: "Uncle, what was the sound just now?"
"Just a few petty thieves!" Li Changsheng did not tell anything about the Cheng family, so as not to worry his sister-in-law.
"Uncle, are you not injured?" Chen Yuelian was a little worried and came over to check Li Changsheng's body.
"Sister-in-law, I am very powerful. How can a few thieves hurt me?" Li Changsheng pulled Chen Yuelian to the kang, and the two of them gradually fell asleep.
The next day.
Early in the morning.
Li Changsheng came to the Yamen and spent a little money to meet Fan Wen, the Yamen's master.
Master Fan Wen is well-known as a money-grubber in Yangcheng. As long as you give him money, he will do anything for you. Almost all the work of buying a job goes through his hands.
Of course, some of the money he made from selling his position was given to the county magistrate and his subordinates.
"Master Fan, I want to buy a position."
After Li Changsheng spoke, he directly handed Fan Wen ten taels of silver.
Fan Wen handed over the ten taels of silver with a smile on his face, and then asked: "Tell me, what position do you want to buy?"
"Capture."
Li Changsheng said.
"You want to buy a police agent, which is a more dangerous position! If you have more money, I can arrange some easier positions for you." Fan Wen did not feel sorry for Li Changsheng, but wanted to earn more money.
After all, the position of an agent could not be sold for much money, and he was not willing to sell it.
"Master Fan, I just want to buy a job as a catcher, but I want to work under Xu Ya, the catcher." Li Changsheng said.
"You want to follow Xu Ya's head catcher?" Fan Wen was surprised at first, and then showed a strange smile, "It seems that my little brother is somewhat interested in Xu Ya's head catcher. Xu Ya's head catcher is indeed the best in Yangcheng." A great beauty, but you’d better not have such thoughts.”
"Master Fan, I just think Xu Ya is very powerful in catching heads, so it would be safer to follow her."
Li Changsheng explained.
In fact, he wanted to follow Xu Ya to catch the head, because Xu Ya's identity as the head catcher was not simple. She came from the Xu family in Yangcheng. Xu Ya was also known as an iceberg beauty who hated evil and could not be bribed by the Cheng family.
If he follows other catchers, if the catchers are bribed by the Cheng family, he will be easily tricked to death.
Therefore, he would rather spend more money and follow Xu Ya to catch the head.
"Okay, I can let you follow Xu Ya to catch the head, but the price will be higher. You need to bid 1,000 taels of silver!"
Fan Wen said.
Many warriors cannot afford 1,000 taels of silver.
But Li Changsheng directly took out 1,000 taels of silver notes and handed them to Master Fan Wen.
"Master Fan, this is a 1,000-tael silver note."
Fan Wen put away the 1,000 taels of silver notes and immediately smiled and said: "Very good, I will take you to see the chief arrester of the yamen. If you give him some money then, he will arrange for you to follow Xu Ya Headhunting.”
"Yes, Master Fan."
Li Changsheng nodded.
soon.
Li Changsheng followed Master Fan to meet Xiao Kuang, the chief arrester of the Yamen, who was a strong man in the fifth level.
"Mr. Xiao is the boss. This little brother wants to join the Yamen and serve as a catcher. Could you please make arrangements for him," Fan Wen said.
Xiao Kuang was a little unhappy, but in terms of status, no matter how powerful he was, he was not as good as Fan Wen.
And Li Changsheng quickly said respectfully: "Li Changsheng has seen the chief arrester."
With that said, he handed over 1,000 taels of silver.
Perhaps 1,000 taels of silver is not much for a fifth-level warrior, but it is not too little. Many warriors who are not good at business have no way to make money.
The salary in the yamen is not high. Xiao Kuang's monthly salary is only a few dozen taels of silver. 1,000 taels is equivalent to his two years' salary.
Now that he had gained 1,000 taels of silver, Xiao Kuang was in a better mood, and at least he was a little more pleasing to Li Changsheng.
"Okay, I will follow Master Fan's arrangement and let you follow Xu Ya to catch the head." Xiao Kuang agreed.
