On the way back to his cell, Zheng Xiu took three steps and two steps at a time, looking relaxed.
Recalling Shi Wentong's expression as if he was having a myocardial infarction before leaving, Zheng Xiu wanted to spend a lot of money immediately to ask a well-known painter in the city to copy this world-famous painting and make it a legacy of the Zheng family.
I usually wear a mask if I don't want to offend others, but now you are no longer pretending, so of course Zheng Xiu is welcome.
Of course, the way to do business lies in one word: etiquette! As a fastidious person, he, Boss Zheng, can't curse others, can he?
Zheng Xiu felt that he was polite enough.
Scar Laoliu was guarding the entrance to the dungeon. When he knew that the person meeting Zheng Xiu was Shi Wentong, who had a "hate for seizing his wife" with Boss Zheng, he was still a little uneasy in his heart.
Rather than worrying about Boss Zheng's safety, Scar Lao Liu was more worried about being implicated.
At this time, I saw Boss Zheng in high spirits and triumphant when he returned. I couldn't help but rub my hands and get closer and asked: "Boss Zheng, have you settled this matter?"
Scar Lao Liu seemed to have misunderstood Swen Tong's purpose.
He thought that Shi Wentong was ignoring the past and was planning to get Zheng Xiu out.
Whatever.
Zheng Xiu glanced at the other party without making any excuse. Scar Laoliu's status was low, and talking too much would be harmful to him. So Zheng Xiu shook his head and smiled mysteriously.
This goes without saying!
Scar Lao Liu "understood instantly" that as long as Zheng Xiu does not lose power, he will wait for Zheng Xiu to be released from prison in the future. With the care that Scar Lao Liu has taken care of Boss Zheng in the past two days...
Scar Lao Liu was so happy that he followed Zheng Xiu, thinking that by getting in touch with the richest man in the imperial city, he would now be considered a proud ancestor. Scar Lao Liu was so happy that he chuckled "hehe" over there.
The future is promising!
Zheng Xiu swaggered back to the door of his cell and heard the sound of gobbling food coming from next door.
"Sir, does it smell good?"
Zheng Xiu passed by, took a look into the darkness, nodded secretly, and asked with a smile.
The unkempt old official in the prison opposite looked up at Zheng Xiu's smiling face with a look of astonishment.
Zheng Xiu actually hoped that the other party would reply "It smells so good". After twenty years of soul travel, Zheng Xiu felt really uncomfortable with the feeling that no one would answer his question.
But he didn't make fun of the other party, but instead cupped his hands, with a hint of respect and apology in his tone: "I'm sorry, Zheng didn't mean any harm in what he said. As the saying goes, if you keep the green hills, why worry about not having firewood, no matter how much there is?" Unjust and indignant, only by leaving here alive can you have a chance to express your ambition. If you are hungry, I will ask Brother Six to bring you a sumptuous meal tomorrow."
Scar Lao Liu listened and wanted to say "unruly" out of habit, but the heavy golden leaf in his arms told him that he shouldn't say that. So Scar Laoliu smacked his lips, nodded, and agreed.
"Thank you Brother Six for your generosity."
That's your generosity, Mr. Zheng.
Scar Laoliu was confused and thankful at the same time. What was confusing was that he might not be able to keep his job if things continued like this. Fortunately, with Boss Zheng's strength, he might not be able to stay for a few days. How could this palm-sized piece of land trap Zheng Xiu, a gold-encrusted tiger?
"snort!"
The inmate wanted to throw away the Chinese food to vent his anger, but the dishes were really delicious, and Zheng Xiu's last words sounded sincere. The old man climbed to the fence and silently pushed out the exquisite dinner plate without saying anything else.
"Master Jiang, you really don't understand good people's hearts."
When Scar Lao Liu saw the old official's attitude, he mocked him lukewarmly. Zheng Xiu returned to the cage and waved his hand, signaling Scar Lao Liu to keep his mouth shut. When Zheng Xiu raised his empty hands and smiled to signal Scar Lao Liu to start locking himself again, Scar Lao Liu rolled his eyes, grinned, and imitated Zheng Xiu's calm demeanor, waving his hands, and spoke righteously. : "No one can lock you, Master Zheng. Your integrity is in the imperial city. Who doesn't know it? It's not necessary, it's not necessary!"
"Thank you for taking care of me, Sixth Brother."
Before Zheng Xiu entered the prison, he suddenly remembered something and closed his eyes.
Soon he opened his eyes again, with a serious face, and entered the cell.
Lao Liu was about to close the door, but Zheng Xiu walked out again.
"Zheng..."
"You wait a moment, hold it in for a day, and let Zheng move around for a while."
Zheng Xiu came out, closed his eyes, went in, closed his eyes, came out, closed his eyes again.
I went back and forth five or six times.
Scar Laoliu felt that he could not stand by and watch Boss Zheng trample on Daqian's laws with this silent protest.
He quickly closed his eyes.
Lord Jiang saw this businessman staged a naked drama of collusion between government and businessmen in front of him, and the anger he had just sunk was ignited again, and he snorted coldly.
"call……"
Boss Zheng went in and out more than ten times, and finally had enough trouble and took the initiative to go to jail, but his expression was a little more depressed.
"Click."
The handcuffs and shackles are not required, but the door lock still needs to be meaningful. Scar Lao Liu locked the cell door firmly. Zheng Xiu waved to Lao Liu and asked Master Jiang's background in a low voice that could only be heard by two people.
It stands to reason that Scar Lao Liu has been here for a long time, so he must know who he can offend and who he cannot offend. Looking at Scar Laoliu's attitude towards Master Jiang, it seemed as if he knew that the other party wouldn't be able to get out. Zheng Xiu was curious and asked about the other party's identity.
"You don't know Mr. Zheng?" Scar Laoliu said in surprise, "That's Mr. Jiang Gaoyijiang, the prefect of Yanzhou!"
"So it's him?" Zheng Xiu was slightly startled, secretly thinking that he really didn't recognize him.
Three years ago, Zheng Xiu and Jiang Gaoyi had a distant relationship. Now Jiang Gaoyi is dark and thin, as if he has shed layers of skin, and is very different from his former appearance.
I remember that three years ago, Zheng Xiu planned to open some industrial branches in Yanzhou. He had everything taken care of, but the approval for a few key pieces of land was stuck at Jiang Gaoyi. At that time, Zheng Xiu received a big rejection, saying that Mr. Jiang didn't want to see the wealthy businessman, and he just didn't see him if he said he didn't want to see him.
Later, Zheng Xiu asked someone higher up to give him some pressure, and Jiang Gaoyi had no choice but to approve. In the end, his work was completed, and he had no grudges or relationships with Jiang Gaoyi. But looking at the other party's attitude, I guess he still holds a grudge about what happened back then.
Scar Laoliu did not hide anything and told the reason why Jiang Gaoyi was imprisoned. It turned out that the Ministry of Industry wanted to build a bridge on the boundary of Yanzhou, but it is said that Jiang Gaoyi felt that there was something fishy in the funding for building the bridge, so he turned back and sued the Minister of Industry.
Later, he was imprisoned and spent three months in this prison.
When Scar Lao Liu was gone, Zheng Xiu looked like he was going to sleep early. After a while, when there was deathly silence in the prison, Zheng Xiu changed his posture and squinted his eyes to look at Jiang Gaoyi opposite.
Under the moonlight, Zheng Xiu vaguely saw the other person facing the wall, sleeping on his side. From the sound of his breathing, he must have been asleep.
"It seems that we have to ask Brother Six to change Mr. Jiang's cell tomorrow so that it will be easier for me to do my work."
Zheng Xiu was walking in and out of the cell door just now. He didn't really want to trample on Daqian's laws in front of Scar Lao Liu.
Unintentionally, he determined one thing.
Zheng Xiu's mental prison can only be entered within the "prison".
In other words, he accidentally awakened to the golden finger vision due to being imprisoned. As a "prisoner", he must be in prison before he can enter the ghost world.
If Zheng Xiu had understood this matter before awakening [Wandering Soul] and weighed the pros and cons, maybe forget it. The experience of this night would not bring him any practical benefits. He would still find a way to solve the current problem first and leave the prison.
but!
It’s different now!
You can become stronger by going to jail!
It might be aggrieved if it were anyone else, but who is he, the richest man! At worst, the prison environment can be transformed into a private villa. This prison can still be used for sitting!
After passing the first act, you will understand [Wandering of the Gods]. According to the text prompts, there is something called a "doorway" mentioned there. What if you go deeper into the "doorway"?
What abilities will he realize?
Thinking of this, Zheng Xiu decided not to go out.
At the very least, he doesn't plan to go out in the short term.
etc.
Zheng Xiu suddenly remembered, how is this "prison" determined?
If someone like Zheng digs a basement in his yard,
Put some handcuffs and shackles, wooden horse whips, candles and incense inside, arrange the scene, and then lie down inside.
this…
Does it count?
…
…
…
Boss Zheng began to seriously consider the feasibility of this matter.
