In the front hall of the drug store, several fierce-looking city defense troops were looking around the counter.
Many medicinal materials were overturned to the ground, and the strong smell of herbs, combined with the mess on the ground, instantly filled the shop.
"A bunch of damn mutes..."
Dressed in fine clothes, blond and blue-eyed.
The leading man covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief, glanced at the waiters with a disgusted expression, and angrily yelled: "Why are you still dawdling? Get your boss out of here!"
"Oops, sorry sorry..."
crucial moment.
Lao Suntou finally arrived belatedly with Xue Yun in disguise.
With a flattering smile on his face, Lao Sun bowed his head and saluted respectfully to the city defense troops. He looked totally different from the stern look he had just now.
"Unfortunately, a new batch of medicinal materials has arrived in the store. I am busy processing it. It is really a sin for me to neglect you military masters..."
Silently rolling his eyes.
The blond man in the lead looked with contempt, still covering his mouth and nose with a handkerchief, and asked in a deep voice: "Are you the boss here?"
"Exactly..."
Walked around the front hall of the drug store.
The blond man suddenly changed the topic and said with a grin, "I heard that your medical skills are very good. You should have made a lot of money in the city over the years, right?"
He bowed respectfully.
Old Suntou smiled repeatedly and immediately responded: "I don't dare to take it. I'm just doing a small business to earn a living. How can I dare to claim to have any medical skills?"
A cold smile.
Ignoring Old Suntou's modesty, the blond man's attitude was always condescending, and he raised his voice and said: "To tell you the truth, the principality government has ordered that there will be big moves along the border recently. In order for everything to go smoothly, all shops in the city must be inspected. Conduct a thorough investigation!”
There was a pause.
The blond man pondered: "After all, who knows whether you shameless businessmen will collude with hostile forces and thus pose a threat to national security!"
As soon as these words came out.
Xue Yun, who had been silent behind Lao Suntou, immediately raised his eyes involuntarily.
A big move by the principality government? !
In addition to preparing to invade the territory of the Daxia Empire again, what other actions can be taken...
A thought came to my mind.
Looking sternly at the blond man in front of him, Xue Yun resisted the impulse and finally restrained the murderous intention in his body, so he did not attack him immediately.
"Don't dare, how could it be possible!"
He took a step forward, pretending to be panicked.
Lao Suntou reached out and grabbed the blond man's sleeve, and explained in a hoarse voice: "Sir, I... I am a good citizen. How dare I do anything that is not conducive to national security? You can You can’t wrongly accuse a good person!”
He suddenly shook off Lao Suntou's hand.
The blond man showed a disgusted expression and immediately winked at the city defense troops accompanying him.
The latter immediately came to his senses and hurriedly stepped forward and asked: "Hey, Boss Sun, do you know who this gentleman is?"
Still pretending to be stupid.
Old Suntou shook his head wildly, but he looked frightened.
A lewd smile.
The accompanying guard immediately introduced: "This gentleman is the chief staff officer beside our administrative officer at "Fredericksburg" - Mr. Angele!"
executive officer——
It is a special official position in the "Aisha Principality" responsible for governing a city-state.
In this satellite town, its status and authority can be said to be overwhelming.
As a staff officer beside the administrator, Angele in front of him did have extremely high authority in a sense.
"So, you understand?"
He raised his eyebrows.
The city defense army hinted crazily: "This time the inspection of shops in the city is all done by Mr. Angele. If he says you have a problem, you do have a problem. Similarly, if Mr. Angele says you have no problem, who will I don’t dare to cause trouble to you again…”
"understand."
He kept nodding his head submissively.
Old Suntou quickly turned to Angele and said respectfully: "Sir, whenever you have any orders, I will do my best to do it. I just ask you to be merciful and let me go to this medicine shop..."
Abusing power for personal gain and extortion.
This is no longer a shocking new thing among the people of "Aisha Principality".
The common people who have been living at the bottom have no power and can only allow these powerful officials to exploit them at will.
This is true from top to bottom.
The public order and good customs of the entire "Aisha Principality" have long been rotten to the core.
"Haha, don't be nervous."
Smiling proudly.
Angele put away the handkerchief and said straight to the point: "Actually, I also know that there is no big problem between you and your pharmacy, but the brothers came out with me to do business and visited all the shops all day long. This is It’s a thankless manual job.”
"After all, we are doing our best for the safety of you businessmen. If a spy from an enemy country sneaks into your store, it will be a serious crime that requires beheading!"
A series of threats, just to scare Lao Suntou out of his wits.
The latter was also very cooperative and deliberately pretended to be frightened.
Only Xue Yun behind him secretly felt funny.
It is estimated that Angele never dreamed that the person standing in front of him was the spy from the Great Xia Empire. Now, in the courtyard behind the medicine shop, there is a night watchman team with outstanding combat power hidden in it.
"Yes Yes Yes......"
He raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.
Old Sun nodded his head as if he was pounding garlic, and responded repeatedly: "Please show me a clear path, Sir!"
"Simple!"
It's almost time to see the heat.
Angele put his hands behind his back and said arrogantly: "Just like this, if you use some money to support our work, I will help you take care of it. Naturally, this fire will not burn you. On the body."
That's it.
The intention of the city defense troops in front of them was completely obvious.
It's nothing more than trying to extort some money and benefits on the pretext of official duties.
There was almost no hesitation.
Old Suntou hurriedly ran into the backyard. After a while, he returned to the front hall with a large bundle of banknotes and respectfully stretched them out in front of Angele.
"Sir, this is the income of the shop in the past three months. Although it is not much, it is a piece of my heart. Please accept it."
He raised his eyebrows lightly.
Angele nodded with satisfaction, then glanced at the officer behind him.
The latter quickly stepped forward to grab the banknotes and put them into his pocket without saying a word.
"Very good, I like to deal with sensible people like you!"
Turn around sharply.
Angele raised his hand, snapped his fingers, and ordered loudly: "There is no problem with this store. There is no need to continue searching. Let's go!"
All the defenders laughed evilly.
He immediately followed Angele out of the drug store with satisfaction, leaving broken bottles and cans on the ground.
