After a while, Hong Hu brought five young guys with their heads down to Zhang Rui's place.
"Brother Six, these are the people I selected. They are all here." Hong Hu said with a team salute to Zhang Rui.
"Well, thank you for your hard work, Mr. Hong Bai. I'll say a few words to them. Please stand guard for me again so that others don't bother me." At this time, there was no one around Zhang Rui, waiting for Hong Hu who arrived. people said
"Okay, Sixth Brother." Hong Hu said with another team salute to Zhang Rui.
Then he turned around, stared at the prisoners following him with wide eyes, and said harshly:
"You guys, please stay well. If anyone dares to make Sixth Brother angry later, don't blame me for being rude to you."
"Don't dare...don't dare..."
Several prisoners looked timid and answered one after another.
"Um."
After hearing this, Hong Hu left with satisfaction. I couldn’t help but feel proud in my heart:
"If I don't give you a warning, let you act arrogantly in front of Sixth Brother. If this spreads out, why should I raise my head in front of several other presidents?"
The five young captives could not help but feel relieved as they watched the "evil man" leave.
"Okay, everyone..."
Zhang Rui spoke to them at this time
After hearing Zhang Rui's voice, these five people looked at him one after another.
This person is too young, and it doesn't necessarily feel like he is younger than me.
For such a young person, the "evil man" just now treated him with such respect.
I really can't imagine that he would be the boss of that "evil man". He seems to be very kind-faced, and I can't tell that he is "evil".
"I'm here to tell you some good news." Zhang Rui said and paused, waiting for them to ask, "What good news is it?"
As a result, the five young captive soldiers present stood there in a daze and stared at him.
Seeing this, Zhang Rui couldn't help but feel embarrassed, so he had to save himself and said: "Ahem, you must be asking in your mind. What's the good news?"
"The good news is, I'm going to release you now."
The five people who had no reaction at first felt strange after hearing Zhang Rui's words: "Isn't this planning to play tricks on us?"
So, someone finally looked at Zhang Rui and asked:
"is this real?"
"Of course, I, Zhang Rui, have always said the same thing. If I say I will let you go, I will let you go." Zhang Rui said firmly.
The five people looked at Zhang Rui and felt strange. It's certainly a good thing to be able to let yourself go, but I'm afraid it's not that simple.
"I wonder what Brother Six wants?" one of them asked. He saw others calling Zhang Rui "Brother Six", so he also called him "Brother Six".
"This little brother's question is on point. I let you go back to give you a chance to be superior - Geng Shangzhi, please pass on a few words to me."
Because he asked the prisoners, Zhang Rui knew that it was Geng Shangzhi who brought people here to beat him this time, since Sitku threw him out. Then Zhang Rui had no choice but to find Geng Shangzhi.
"What words?" the prisoner who asked the question asked again
"It's very simple. Tell him that he led people to kill so many of my brothers, and I am very angry. I am just a bandit. If he doesn't bring money to redeem his brothers, don't blame me for killing them all, Shen They will fall into a shithole and let the next generation have bad luck." Zhang Rui looked like a scoundrel and an angry scoundrel.
"Brother Six, don't..." Three prisoners shouted anxiously.
One of the older prisoners said again: "This is very unscrupulous. They are all dead, so why do it? There is no need to let others decline for several generations!"
"It's not necessary? Are my brothers provoking you again? If you don't come over and beat us, they will still be alive and well." Zhang Rui said angrily
"But, we also died a lot of people. And more than you." A prisoner seemed to have forgotten his situation and argued hurriedly without thinking too much.
"According to what you said, you came here to beat me for no reason, and if I beat you back, you still blame me?" Zhang Rui asked.
After hearing Zhang Rui's words, the five of them chose to remain silent.
Even the most idiotic person would not dare to say: "You should just stand there and kill me without being able to fight back."
"Um, Sixth Brother. Can you not kill my brothers and sink them into the shithole?" asked one who made another effort.
"Okay." Zhang Rui replied
The five of them did not expect that they agreed so easily. Just when they were about to express their gratitude, they heard Zhang Rui continue:
"Just let Geng Shangzhi use the silver to redeem them."
Is Geng Shangzhi willing to come over with money to redeem other brothers? These five prisoners really had no confidence in him.
"I wonder how much money it will take to redeem the other brothers?" the prisoner who asked the question before asked.
"Each dead person costs 20 taels, and a living person costs 40 taels." Zhang Rui reported his price
"Too many... How can Geng Shen be willing to give us small soldiers such money?" The five prisoners shook their heads and discussed.
"More? I still think it's too little. You Han Banner people have a monthly salary of one to two or five cents. This is less than two years' salary. Besides, there is no reason for Geng Shang to ignore him when he tells you to die. You guys." Zhang Rui said with contempt.
"That's what I said, but I asked him to pay so much money. How can he be willing? Brother Six, see if you can get it any less." One of the prisoners said worriedly.
"This is not something you should worry about. You just need to quote him my price. If he wants to give it, he will definitely give it. If he doesn't give it, no matter how little it is, it will be too much." Zhang Rui waved his hand to stop the prisoner and said
"Besides, his ancestor Geng Shangzhi has been in Guangzhou since Kang Mazi. Who would believe that he doesn't have a net worth of one hundred thousand taels?"
When the five prisoners heard what Zhang Rui said, they didn't say anything else. Just asking Zhang Rui, what should I do if Geng Shangzhi refuses?
Zhang Rui told them to mobilize more power from the masses. Don't just tell Geng Shang directly to the stupid five people.
In that case, all five of them might be killed by Geng Shangzhi. What should Geng Shang say when he says he doesn't know anything?
Zhang Rui's words frightened the five of them. So, the five prisoners asked Zhang Rui what they should do.
"After you go back, pass the news to other people first. Let everyone know it. Then it will be impossible for Geng Shang to stop everyone's mouths. Since he can't stop it, there is no point in killing you." Zhang Rui taught and said
The five prisoners nodded in approval.
In this case, Geng Shangzhi must be forced to use money to redeem people under pressure from below. No wonder Zhang Rui is not afraid that Geng Shangzhi will not be able to make money.
It's really a good plan.
After the five prisoners all recognized Zhang Rui's method, Zhang Rui asked Hong Hu to take them away.
