A person like Guo Qinglin will die if he dies, and no one will care about him. What's more, he can't survive based on his crime. As long as he passes the court, he will definitely be beheaded.
Early the next morning, several jailers woke up from hangovers. The cells were unattended all night. They themselves were shocked. They secretly thought that they shouldn't drink and get into trouble. If something went wrong, they couldn't afford it. They just watched. He looked at the cell key hanging on the wall and felt relieved.
The jailer patrolled the cell and saw that Guo Qinglin had hanged himself in the cell. This kind of thing happened from time to time in the prison, so the jailer was not surprised. They just whispered bad luck and worked together to kill him. Guo Qinglin's body was taken down, and he didn't even do much inspection on the body. He took it directly to the outside of the city and buried it hastily.
…
The business of the lottery center is still booming, and that's not all. Now it has become the collective attention of Jinling City's underworld. Yesterday, many underworld people heard that Guo Qinglin went to rob the lottery center's business, and they all watched the excitement. The underworld gangsters were still waiting for a good show, but who knew that at the lottery center, there was the joint government office and the Jin Yiwei who drove Guo Qinglin and his gang into dust.
Early this morning there was another rumor from the Lottery Center that the Lottery Center will open a branch in the future and start recruiting people from the underworld.
Who has a grudge against money these days? Seeing the lottery center making a lot of money, people from the underworld came to the lottery center to sign up and seek refuge.
Two days later, Ji Gang and Yu Zhaosen came to Jinyiwei to find Zhang Ren.
Zhang Ren asked directly: "Old Yu, are your injuries healed? You two came together. Did something happen to the lottery center again?"
Yu Zhaosen bowed his hands towards Zhang Ren very respectfully and said, "I'm sorry to worry you, my injury is not serious. The lottery center is operating normally and nothing happened."
Zhang Ren nodded and said, "I'm relieved that you are fine."
Ji Gang said from the side: "My lord, you are too biased. My injury is much more serious than Lao Yu's, and I didn't see anyone asking me."
Zhang Ren then said: "Can you compare with Lao Yu? Lao Yu is a scholar. Look at you, who is thick-skinned and thick-skinned. You can't die even if you get injured."
The atmosphere at the scene was very joyful.
Yu Zhaosen took out the Jinyiwei waist badge from his pocket and handed it to Zhang Ren.
Zhang Ren was confused and asked: "Old Yu, what do you mean?"
I only heard Yu Zhaosen say: "My lord, if you can give me this belt, you have already shown your trust in me. As there is no reward for no merit, I'd better take back this Jin Yiwei's belt."
Zhang Ren did not answer, but said: "How can you say that you have no reward for your merits? When Guo Qinglin came to the door, look at how many people came forward? Only you, Lao Yu! Didn't I say before, As long as you work hard, I will definitely be able to arrange a position for you in the court. Now my ability is limited and other yamen cannot arrange it, so I can only place you in Jinyiwei first. So you hold this waist card. This is what you should do. Got it."
Yu Zhaosen wanted to say more, but Zhang Ren raised his hand and interrupted, "Old Yu, I gave you a waist card and also wrote your name into the list of Jin Yiwei. If you don't want to do it, there is no point in looking for me now, and you Are you looking down on Jin Yiwei by being so evasive?"
No one in the court dared to look down on Jin Yiwei, let alone a scholar like Lao Yu. He immediately waved his hand and said, "Sir, how can I dare to look down on Jin Yiwei?"
Zhang Ren said: "Since you can afford it, then keep your cards close to your chest and serve the court well in the future."
Yu Zhaosen had no choice but to take the Jinyiwei belt card back into his arms, and then he raised his hand towards Zhang Ren and said, "Since your lord has said so, it would seem that I don't know how to appreciate you if I am pretentious. In this case, I will thank you. "
Ji Gang grinned, patted Yu Zhaosen's shoulder and said, "Haha, Lao Yu, we will be considered colleagues from now on."
Zhang Ren smiled and nodded, then asked, "Is this why you two came to me?"
I saw Ji Gang slapped himself on the forehead and said: "Look at my brain, I almost forgot about the real thing. That's it, sir. Since we overthrew Guo Qinglin, our reputation in the underworld has also increased. There have been many people in the past few days." People come to us, these
Sir, you always have to be careful, and the second lottery draw is about to begin. Sir, you should also choose a better address to open a branch. "
Zhang Ren nodded and said, "That's fine, I'll go take a look with you."
In order to accommodate the people who had recently moved over, Ji Gang rented a large courtyard next to the lottery center.
When Zhang Ren and Jigang came in, the courtyard was extremely noisy. Jigang stepped forward, raised his hand and said loudly: "Everyone, please be quiet! The boss is here!"
The originally noisy courtyard suddenly became quiet, and everyone gathered around. They all raised their hands towards Zhang Ren and said, "My boss!"
Zhang Ren returned the salute with his hands raised to everyone. He looked at the various people in the courtyard and said, "I will register you all later. From now on, everyone will follow me, but I still have to set the rules." Don't do anything like murder, arson, abduction or trafficking in people from now on, nor can you do anything like betraying your brothers! Let's start with the ugly talk. If anyone breaks the rules, don't blame me for being ruthless, but if anyone does well, then I will do the same. Don’t be stingy with money.”
When Zhang Ren spoke, he deliberately controlled his expression to be more sinister, otherwise he was afraid that he would not be able to scare these reckless people.
Ji Gang lay next to Zhang Ren's ear and asked quietly: "Sir, we all want these people? Are you no longer sifting through them?"
Ji Gang knew that Zhang Ren could not tolerate those who did evil things. These people in the yard were all gangsters, and there were not many people like him who had never done evil.
Zhang Ren nodded slightly and said, "I have my own arrangements, just follow my orders."
Ji Gang immediately cupped his hands and said, "It's a humble job to talk too much."
Zhang Ren didn't blame him. He did have his own thoughts. Zhang Ren really couldn't tolerate any sand in his eyes, and he didn't want to let go of those who killed, set fire, and trafficked people.
The reason why he has taken all the people in today is mainly because he does not have the time and energy to judge the good and evil of these people. Only by taking in all these people will they not go out to do evil. It is said that the country can be changed easily, but the nature is hard to change. Evil people will always show their flaws in the future, and Zhang Ren will find ways to deal with them when the time comes.
Zhang Ren and Yu Zhaosen registered everyone here one by one, which really wasted a lot of effort, but they also gained something.
Zhang Ren found a man named Guan Shan among these people. This man was about the same height as monk Wu Peng, and his whole body was full of solid muscles. He said that he was a descendant of Guan Erye, and he had the sword skills passed down from his family. Extremely fierce, as long as this person has no criminal record, he will definitely become a powerful helper for Zhang Ren.
After the second lottery draw, branches of the lottery center were also opened, and Zhang Ren's power was developing rapidly.
