The reason why Jiang Yifeng asked Zhao Bingfang to record it was not because he was the only one who could record it, but because the identities of the four great talents in Su City were more convincing.
Since Zhao Bingfang is no longer willing to record it, let Tang Shubai continue. Anyway, it will be enough to jointly sign it when the time comes.
"this……"
Tang Shubai looked at what was handed over and hesitated.
Seeing this scene, Zhao Bingfang looked at Jiang Yifeng with a sneer, "Although there is a big difference in status between him and me, we are both scholars, and scholars have their own integrity and perseverance. Even if you are his boss, it doesn't matter, he can't throw it away... "
"You don't want to record it?"
Just as Zhao Bingfang was speaking passionately, Jiang Yifeng looked at Tang Shubai.
"of course not."
Tang Shubai shook his head and brought the recording paper to Jiang Yifeng, "Boss, I think I should add an illustration. I have already thought about the illustration. The county magistrate in official uniform came out of a thatched house with air leakage everywhere, and he was pregnant with his wife. It holds a large amount of gold and silver."
"You're such a fucking talent!"
Jiang Yifeng praised Tang Shubai and looked at Zhao Bingfang with a smile, "Nephew, you just spoke too fast and I didn't hear clearly. Please say it again."
Zhao Bingfang: "..."
At this moment, he wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it, let alone repeat it.
How could he have imagined that Tang Shubai had no integrity or perseverance as a scholar, and even helped Jiang Yifeng with suggestions.
However, Zhao Bingfang had no idea that Tang Shubai, who had been severely beaten by Jiang Yifeng, was now more realistic than anyone else.
Of course, he is not giving up on his dream, but he understands that talking about dreams is just a dream until his stomach is full.
In the following time, Jiang Yifeng asked a few more questions, basically portraying Tang Rui as a corrupt official who robbed women of the people, plundered the people's wealth, and made no achievements.
"This interview ends here. Thank you for your cooperation."
Jiang Yifeng smiled, looked polite, and showed high professionalism.
Hearing this, Cao Jin breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that it was finally over.
He was really afraid that Jiang Yifeng would continue to ask questions, because according to Jiang Yifeng's words, his cousin would become a rebel if he continued to ask questions.
His only hope now is that his cousin Cao Rui leads troops to rescue him. He doesn't believe the man in front of him, and he is not even afraid of the officers and soldiers.
At this time, Jiang Yifeng said: "Now that the interview is over, let's talk about business."
Cao Jin was startled, "What's the matter?"
"In the previous conflict, who stabbed Delphi with a sharp weapon?"
"this……"
Cao Jin hesitated, unwilling to speak.
As the village chief, he cannot betray his fellow villagers, otherwise no one will believe him in the future.
The problem is, Jiang Yifeng's eyes are too scary, and there is Li Erniu with a stick next to him, ready to break his remaining two legs at any time.
After hesitating for a while, Cao Jin suggested: "Sir, our Linshui Village was blamed for the previous conflict. Do you think we should pay for it?"
Jiang Yifeng asked playfully: "How much will the compensation be?"
Cao Jin thought for a moment and reluctantly said, "I will pay three taels of silver."
"Three taels of silver? Where are the beggars you sent?"
"Sir, three taels of silver is a lot!"
When Cao Jin saw that Jiang Yifeng was too young, his heart suddenly went cold.
Although Linshui Village is not far from Sioux City, it is under the jurisdiction of Qinghe County. Therefore, even if the busy farming season is over, you cannot go to Sioux City to find work to make money to support your family.
In today's situation, it's good to be able to fill your stomach. Where can you save money? Three taels of silver is already a lot.
Jiang Yifeng was too lazy to talk nonsense and said in a cold voice: "I don't want compensation, just hand over the person to me."
"grown ups……"
Cao Jin begged.
Jiang Yifeng interrupted ruthlessly, "I don't want to say what I said a second time, so hand over the person."
"All right!"
Seeing how strong Jiang Yifeng was, Cao Jin did not dare to plead for mercy anymore. She turned around and looked at the people in Linshui Village, "Cao Meng, come here."
"Village chief, we cannot hand Cao Meng over."
"This man is so vicious. If you hand Cao Meng over, he will be beaten to death."
"Since paying three taels of silver is not enough, then pay five taels of silver. If five taels is not enough, then pay ten taels of silver. That'll do the trick!"
The people in Linshui Village all had the surname Cao, and every household was related to them. Therefore, when they heard that Cao Meng was to be handed over, none of them agreed.
However, Cao Jin had long been frightened by Jiang Yifeng and just wanted to know the whole thing as soon as possible.
"Cao Meng, you have seen who these people are. If you don't come out, do you want to kill the whole village?"
As soon as these words came out, a young man walked out from among the people in Linshui Village.
The young man is about 20 years old, 1.8 meters tall, with broad shoulders, strong muscles, and healthy wheat-colored skin. He is simply a smaller version of Li Erniu.
When Li Erniu saw the young man, his eyes were on fire. If Jiang Yifeng hadn't given the order, he would have taken action long ago.
When Cao Meng came to Jiang Yifeng, perhaps because of his youth and vigour, he was not afraid to look into Jiang Yifeng's eyes, and there was no sign of surrender in his eyes.
This guy is good!
Jiang Yifeng looked at Cao Meng. Instead of being angry, he developed a love for talents. He thought about it and asked, "Do you know that you have hurt someone?"
"Know."
"A murder must be repaid with a life, and a debt must be repaid with money. Do you understand this principle?"
"Understand!"
Cao Meng said to Jiang Yifeng: "If the person I stabbed dies, I will pay him my life."
Damn it!
Not afraid of death!
I guessed it right, this is a talent.
Jiang Yifeng is becoming more and more satisfied with Cao Meng, but he also understands that Cao Meng is like a beast that needs to be tamed.
So, he asked: "Who else is in your family?"
"What are you going to do?"
Cao Meng was instantly furious and rushed towards Jiang Yifeng like a mad beast, but was finally stopped by Li Erniu.
There is a weakness!
Then there is a way to tame you!
Jiang Yifeng felt happy and said calmly: "Don't get me wrong, I'm just curious. If you kill someone to pay for your life, what will happen to your relatives at home?"
Hearing this, Cao Meng's aura became weaker.
Jiang Yifeng asked: "You are not very old. Your parents should be alive, right?"
"snort!"
Cao Meng snorted coldly and did not answer Jiang Yifeng.
When Cao Jin saw this, he cursed an idiot in his mind and quickly helped to explain, "Sir, Cao Meng's parents died of illness a few years ago, and there is an eight-year-old sister at home."
When Cao Jin told Cao Jin about his family situation, Cao Meng glared at him, as if he wanted to beat him up.
"You're only eight years old!"
Jiang Yifeng shook his head slightly and sighed: "At such a young age, if no one takes care of me, I don't know if I can survive this winter. Even if I am lucky enough to survive, I will probably become a beggar."
This time, Cao Meng was shocked, and his aura of fear of death completely disappeared.
Jiang Yifeng asked: "Are you afraid now?"
Cao Meng was unconvinced and said: "I'm not afraid of death, I'm just worried about who will take care of Mengyao after I die."
"She deserves to have no one to take care of her."
Jiang Yifeng's voice gradually turned cold, and he stared at Cao Meng and said word by word: "There are people in your family who need care. Is there no one in Laifu's family who was stabbed by you who needs care?"
"If Laifu dies, who will raise his parents and take care of his younger brothers and sisters? Have you ever considered whether their family can survive this winter, or will they become beggars?"
"You Linshui Village bullied Mei Village for being an outsider, and stabbed people. You still have the nerve to refuse to accept it. You are really shameless."
Under Jiang Yifeng's verbal attack, Cao Meng's head drooped.
In fact, he also felt that what Linshui Village was doing was wrong, but it was a pity that others spoke lightly and no one cared about him at all, which ultimately led to this situation.
"Yes...I'm sorry."
Cao Meng's voice was like a mosquito, and he apologized to Jiang Yifeng.
"It's not me you stabbed, so you don't need to apologize to me." Jiang Yifeng continued: "It's unknown whether Laifu will live or die. If he dies, you pay him with his life. If he survives, you pay him silver as compensation. Do you have any objection?"
Cao Meng shook his head, "No objection?"
Jiang Yifeng said: "Okay, until Laifu is fully recovered, you will stay in Mei Village."
"Um!"
Cao Meng nodded in acceptance.
At this moment, a group of soldiers and horses, probably more than five hundred people, suddenly appeared in the distance, running towards them.
"Here, my cousin is here."
With an ecstatic expression on his face, Cao Jin looked at Jiang Yifeng and said, "Haha, you're done. My cousin and I have the best relationship, and he won't let you go."
