Sun Sanhu was so depressed that he almost vomited blood. How could he have forgotten this? Who was Zhou Xing? He was the head catcher on the ground in Tanggu. He was already a huge figure in the eyes of the people. Special police captain and public security director, this special identity is enough to determine the life or death of ordinary civilians.
Does such a person have to pay for breakfast? How could Sun Sanhu make such a common-sense mistake? Sun Sanhu really wanted to give himself a mouthful. But at this moment, Zhou Xing pulled off his mustache with a lightning strike.
"Holy crap, this guy is fake, he is Sun Sanhu..." Before he could finish his words, the police officers around him rushed towards him like a gust of wind, and immediately crushed him to the ground, holding him down like a stack of Arhats. .
At this time, the boss of the breakfast shop couldn't hold it in any longer and laughed out loud, "Uncle Zhou, you... you didn't see it just now, this guy... Hahaha, this guy looks so good at acting, he can actually do it As for Dian Shao, the cooking is decent..."
The owner of the breakfast shop seemed to be very familiar with Zhou Xing, and he was not afraid at all that his stomach hurt from laughing. At this time, Zhou Xing also laughed, "You damn thing, have you been holding back this bad thing for a long time and deliberately making me laugh? If you do, your family's taxes will be reduced by half. You can be considered a great contribution." …”
This is the advantage of being a local snake. Zhou Xing has almost no unfamiliar people in Tanggu. He has connections with all people. Even the owner of a small breakfast shop can help him at the most critical moment.
After hearing Zhou Xing's story, Xiao Letian laughed so much that his stomach ached, "Hahaha, you are a born underground worker. Your concealment skills are really amazing... Search me!"
Wang Huaiyuan took action himself. After a while, Sun Sanhu's guard belt and secret decree were found. Xiao Letian looked at it with a sneer, "Good thing, it is indeed a good thing. With this, We can start the lawsuit slowly... Come here, drag him down, interrogate him carefully and get his confession..."
Sun Sanhu now accepted his fate, closed his eyes and allowed these soldiers to secretly imprison him.
Xiao Letian looked at the rising sun and stretched hard, "Captain Zhou..."
"Sir, did you call me? The little one is here..."
"I'm getting hungry after hearing you talk about fried liver and fried dough sticks. You're a local coward. How about making a hearty breakfast? Is it possible for the hundreds of people in front of you to do it?"
"Hey! See what you said, sir. If I can't even do this, why do you need me? I'll go there myself... Kids, let's go back to the city and hire the cook. …”
Xiao Letian looked at Zhou Xing who was walking away and nodded, "This guy is good. Although he is greedy for money, he has good eyesight. He knows who is the grandfather in Tanggu City now. If he has good eyesight, he is worth cultivating..."
Now the colleague Zhou Mingkui had also calmed down. He wiped the black ash on his face with his sleeve and said with a flattering smile, "Yes, Captain Zhou should be promoted. He has a clear mind and a flexible brain. From now on, Mr. Industrial Zone Once it’s done, you’ll need him!”
While they were chatting, Fan Lian supported his elder brother Fan Ru and walked over. At this time, Fan Ru no longer had the arrogance he had before. He was trembling as if he was kneeling to Xiao Letian.
"I'm confused, I'm blind, I've offended the general's power, I beg the general to have mercy..."
After all, Fan Ru also came from a businessman family. The fear of soldiers has been imprinted in the bones of his bones. From the moment he saw Xiao Letian's violent resistance to the law, the old man knew that he was completely wrong from beginning to end. wrong.
Until this morning, when Fan Ru saw Xiao Letian's fierce and terrifying new army, the old man bowed his head completely. If he mentioned anything about Confucian businessmen, government officials, and businessmen again at this time, he would probably have to let Xiao Letian give it to him. Laughing to death.
Xiao Letian looked coldly at Fan Ru who was kneeling on the ground. He did not help him. This old man should pay the price for his stupidity. Yes, there is no big crime for a person like Fan Ru. Even if he treats Huniu badly, it is within the scope allowed by traditional etiquette. Xiao Letian really can't do anything cruel.
More than once, when Xiao Letian saw Huniu crying all night, he wanted to send someone to kill the old thing. But after all, he was Huniu's biological uncle and Fan Qian's biological brother. He broke bones and connected tendons. How many times did Xiao Letian forcefully suppress the anger in his heart.
"Haha, Mr. Fan Ru, I can't afford to kneel down to me. If you just smash my foreign bank a few times, you will have everything. Look at your majesty before, lifting the table and smashing the plates, and you kept saying that I The foreign companies were not worth much, what about now?"
Xiao Letian felt distressed when he recalled the sets of Kangxi pastel tea bowls that Fan Ru smashed. Even though they are worthless now, they will be passed down to future generations. If they are not auctioned for millions or tens of millions, they will be lost. . You just raised your hand and your entire house in the imperial capital was ruined. You are really willing to give it up.
Xiao Letian kept scolding him, but looking at Fan Ru shivering in the cold wind, he really couldn't do anything, not to mention that Huniu was lying down at the window watching. Xiao Letian waved his hand, and the two guards quickly helped Fan Ru up.
"You are Huniu's uncle and also my elder. The kneeling you just did was to my brothers who were injured. I cannot accept this gift from you...According to the etiquette and law, I, my niece-in-law, cannot I am not the one who picked you to be the elder, but everyone in the Qing Dynasty knows that I am a Japanese devil, even if I don’t follow the etiquette, it is normal."
"You are old enough, and your family has enough money. Now is the time to take care of yourself, why bother getting involved in this muddy water? The business of Guangde No. does not require any improvement, as long as you can hold on to it. That’s all, right now there is a major change that has not happened in three thousand years. This is not just a political and military change. There will be great changes in the business world in the future. Don’t think too much about the title of Imperial Merchant..."
Fan Ru kept nodding in agreement like a primary school boy. The blood and fire this night scared him so much that even though he was a fool, he now understood that there was no room for him to interfere here.
Fan Ru looked at his future niece and son-in-law. He was so frightened that he trembled all over like a seducing evil spirit. What the old scholar has been paying attention to all his life is not to eat meat if it is not cut properly, and he does not even look at things like killing cows and sheep. Look, I didn’t expect to watch just killing people countless times in one night.
"Yes, yes, I will go back to Shanxi right now to take care of myself, take care of myself... I will take the Guangde away right away, and I will never cause you any trouble... And Fan Lian, if you want to go back to the family, you can go back. , no one will force you if you don’t go back..."
Just when Fan Ru expressed his feelings, Xiao Letian's eyes widened, "What are you talking about? You've caused such a big trouble and you just want to leave? Leave the Guangde number to me..."
"Ah!" When Fan Ru heard this, his knees softened and he fell to his knees. "Mr. Xiao, please have mercy. Our Guangde ship has not made much money this year. If you withhold my two million taels of silver, Our whole family won’t be able to survive...wuwuwu!”
When Fan Ru cried, Huniu couldn't sit still anymore. She rushed out and said to Xiao Letian with tears in her eyes, "Although my uncle did something wrong, he has already admitted his mistake. Don't push yourself to death. Look at my face." Let go..." After saying that, he wiped away his tears.
Xiao Letian is so angry, is he thinking that I am so short of money and am greedy for your more than two million? I really don’t know what I want to do.
Fan Qian's face turned red with anger, "Get up, brother, don't be embarrassed. I'm not greedy for your money. I want you to deposit all your money in Lotte Bank. When the time comes, not only will I give you interest, but you can also exchange it for money." The kind of silver coins used by foreigners..."
Fan Ru was stunned when he heard this, "Are you telling the truth? You didn't lie to me? Are you really not greedy for my money?"
"Tch...I'm too lazy to talk nonsense to you. Shopkeeper Fan, just explain it to your brother!" After saying that, he turned around and left.
Fan Yan talked for a long time before dispelling his brother's doubts. In the end, Fan Ru smiled so hard that he couldn't see his eyes anymore. "Mr. Xiao is really magnanimous. He is not as knowledgeable as me... Huniu, you must serve your husband well in the future and follow the three obediences and four virtues." You have to think about it!”
"Uncle, why are you still like this?" Huniu turned around and ran away in anger. This is a family educated in traditional etiquette. Even if Huniu's mother died in disguise at the hands of Fan Ru, she still had to safeguard the interests of the family at the critical moment.
In Xiao Letian's opinion, this kind of value is somewhat pedantic, but it is the normal state of society under the high pressure of ethics and education for thousands of years, and it has become a habit imprinted in the lives of Chinese people.
Kindness, forgiveness, patience and even a little bit of self-abuse. Looking at the scenes of the Fan family behind him, Xiao Letian sighed in his heart, "It seems that transforming the fundamental nature of a nation is not a matter of a day or two, or even a year or two. No wonder when Zhang Xun was restored, every family in Beijing was released. The firecrackers are hung with dragon flags, it turns out that’s not a rumor from unofficial history, it means that it really can no longer be true history!”
While Xiao Letian was deep in thought, Wang Huaiyuan quietly walked over and whispered, "Sir, what should I do if the Green Camp collapses? There are still more than 600 soldiers left in the camp, and there are also 500 or 600 soldiers fleeing in all directions. These more than a thousand people are all hidden dangers..."
"What are you going to do? Do you have a plan..." Xiao Letian also felt that this problem was very difficult.
Wang Huaiyuan's face was distorted like a Sichuan Opera face. After biting his molar teeth for the last time, his cold tone almost gave Xiao Letian somersaults: "There is no good way, no matter what, they will let the secret out, and the New Army may not be able to hide it." ...Everyone in the execution hall unanimously agreed...it would be better to kill him!"
Damn it, how long has it been since Wang Huaiyuan took over the execution hall, and his personality has already changed drastically? Don’t you care about more than a thousand lives? The killings are about to begin. Could it be that I, Xiao Letian, can't escape the final fate of the time traveler?
If we want to reverse China's national destiny, can we only fight with flesh and blood and bones to find a way out? I’m not willing to give in. I’m really not willing to give in!
Looking at Xiao Letian's strange expression, Wang Huaiyuan knew his inner struggle. He suddenly knelt on the ground, "Sir, women are extremely kind. As long as the Manchus know the secret of the new army, perhaps a hundred thousand troops will be waiting for us. We are not strong enough and we don’t have the ability to fight hard!”
"Could it be that...could it be possible to keep the secret by killing these Green Camp soldiers? How could such a big thing be kept secret?"
"We can't control that much anymore. As long as we can eliminate most of the direct witnesses, we can bite the bullet and refuse to admit the rest. We will also find our witnesses, and then we will slowly grind out the lawsuit. Anyway, we can't live without the court. Sir, as long as you turn the case into a mess, Manqing will have to admit it even if he pinches his nose..."
Xiao Letian looked at Wang Huaiyuan in disbelief, "You... you actually made the plan so far? You have made progress!"
