Seeing that this group of people really looked regretful, Li Daoxuan also decided to reduce their sentences: "Yiye, go up to the stage and say a few words."
Gao Yiye responded, jumped onto the stage from where he was watching the show, and stood in the C position: "Although you have a heart of repentance, the sins you have committed are too serious, and you cannot let go now." When you regain your white body, Tianzun will give you a chance. Whoever performs well and makes more meritorious deeds from now on will have his sentence reduced...
"Reduced sentence?" The reform-through-labor prisoners were stunned.
"Reducing the sentence means shortening the time of reform through labor." Gao Yiye said: "Tianzun said, the crime you committed is called attempted robbery and murder. It is a very serious crime. Generally speaking, you need to be reformed through labor for at least ten years.
The word "ten years" shocked the prison inmates.
Gao Yiye continued: "But considering that you are a first-time offender, have been deceived by others, have not caused any substantial damage to Gaojiacun, and other extenuating circumstances, Tianzun has decided to only let you do a one-year labor camp."
Everyone was overjoyed: "One year! We have already been doing labor camps for half a year. In other words, in another half year, we can regain our white bodies?"
"Yes." Gao Yiye said: "If you have no other performance, you can return to white body after another half year of labor reform. But if someone has outstanding performance, made great achievements, or made significant contributions to Gaojia Village, you can The time for forced labor may be shortened as appropriate.”
"Great." The prisoners cheered.
Gao Yiye turned his head, gave Thirty-Two an expression, and then retreated to the back, changing to Thirty-Two and standing in the C position again.
Thirty-two raised his hand and suppressed the cheers: "Did you all hear it? The Holy Lady personally conveyed the order of the Heavenly Lord. You should perform well, work hard, and strive to regain your white body as soon as possible."
The reform-through-labor prisoners cheered again: "Work hard!"
Life suddenly has hope!
The life of a labor camp with no end in sight has come to an end now, so why don’t you hurry up and start working hard?
A large group of reform-through-labor prisoners rushed out of the reform-through-labor village. They were cutting down trees and building roads. There was a lively atmosphere everywhere.
Thirty-Two secretly rejoiced in his heart: Now it’s better, everyone is more motivated, this doesn’t count as [Being Poor and Keeping the Tao], right? Tianzun should not be sad anymore.
He turned his head and whispered to Gao Yiye: "Yiye, can you see Tianzun? Is Mr. Chi happy now?
Gao Yiye nodded and said in a low voice: "Tianzun showed a kind smile, as if watching his own child grow up."
Thirty-Two was overjoyed: "That's really great, it can make Tianzun happy, and I immediately felt that [this life is worthwhile].
At the same time, Xi'an Mansion.
Xing Honglang took his subordinates to Xi'an Mansion.
The last time I came to Xi'an was a few months ago. It was fine at the time, but I didn't expect that a few months later, the situation here had changed drastically. The fields outside the city were full of refugees in ragged clothes.
These people probably couldn't even pay the "entry tax", so they could only lie in disorder in the fields outside the city.
Xing Honglang was secretly shocked: Is Xi'an already like this? I don’t know if the sugar, lard, chocolate and other things I brought can still be sold.
She walked to the city gate and paid the entry tax.
The soldier guarding the gate wanted to check if her goods were correct. Xing Honglang flipped his wrist and handed over a piece of silver. The guard turned over the top sugar bag and waved to let her go: "He is a serious businessman selling sugar. Let's go." !”
Xing Honglang and his party entered Xi'an Mansion easily.
Walking into the city, the situation was still not optimistic. Refugees were everywhere on the streets and alleys, and a heavy and depressing atmosphere floated over the entire city.
Xing Honglang thought to himself: It’s over this time, and my goods will probably not be sold.
When I came to the familiar market, I bypassed the merchants selling serious goods in front and went to a dark corner of the market. At a fixed time every day, there would be some people waiting for rare goods or illegal goods, usually from The stewards of various wealthy people's homes.
As soon as Xing Honglang arrived, the group of stewards became excited: "Look who's here, Yongji Xing Honglang! Hey! I've been waiting for you for a long time. Are the chocolates from last time still in stock?"
"My master liked the white crystal candy from last time."
"I want a hundred pounds of salt." The wholesaler also came to get the goods.
A group of people gathered around with shouts of coaxing, ready to grab the goods.
Xing Honglang thought to himself: There are so many refugees outside. I thought luxury goods would be hard to sell, but I didn’t expect you people to be the same...
The joys and sorrows of rich people and poor people are not the same.
While the rich wine and meat smell, the road with frozen bone!
Xing Honglang was not merciful at all when it came to making money from rich people, and the prices of crystal candies and chocolates tripled.
"Hey, why is your quotation so much higher than last time?" The steward of a small businessman couldn't bear it anymore.
Xing Honglang rolled his eyes: "Don't you know what's going on outside now? I'm risking my life by running this cargo. Isn't my life worth the money?
Xiao Caimai from the Prince of Qin's Mansion laughed: "That's right! If these good things can be sent to us when there is a war outside, they must be more expensive. If you can't afford them, go away. We, the Prince of Qin's Mansion, want these good things."
After a long period of commotion, Xing Honglang's goods were shipped out.
After emerging from the market, she was in good spirits and asked her thirty-eight subordinates to continue selling off-products. She walked to the official shop alone. She also had a mission from Tianzun to get a gunpowder to use back.
The layout of Xi'an City is a typical square grid layout, with each grid having a function, and the official craftsmen of Xi'an City are all gathered in a square grid, which is where the official workshop is located.
The management here is very strict!
There are only two exits in the entire square grid, and they are both guarded.
Xing Honglang felt it after just one glance. It would not be easy to take "Gunpowder" out of here.
It happened that a shift craftsman came out of the workshop, and Xing Honglang quickly followed him. When he reached the alley, he first threw out a handful of copper coins: "Brother, I want to ask you something.
The shift worker received the money and was overjoyed: "Sister, if you have any questions, just ask."
Xing Honglang said in a low voice: "I want to use a shotgun to shoot birds, and I want to find some gunpowder to help me.
As soon as he said this, the shift worker was startled. He immediately realized that the woman in front of him was not a serious person, so he turned around and wanted to leave. Xing Honglang stood in front of him, holding his left hand on his waist knife, and handed over a broken piece of silver with his right hand.
The meaning is very obvious, if you help, you will receive the money, if you don't help, you will receive the knife.
Choose for yourself!
The shift worker quickly accepted the money, expressed his attitude, and then said in a low voice: "Since a big explosion occurred in the capital, our management of gunpowder in Xi'an has become very strict, and no one is allowed to touch the gunpowder easily... Big sister , I’m afraid it will be difficult for you to do this.”
