I just want to torture you to death, don't force me to beat you to death

Chapter 20: Not giving face (monthly ticket adds more updates)
"Old Liao, if you don't tell others, let them continue to misunderstand you."

Goulan Theater.

Chu Ning spit out a plum core from her mouth, glanced at Xiao Xiang who was singing on the stage, and asked Lao Liao beside her.

"Isn't this good? There is no need to tell her what happened between me and her mother."

Lao Liao shook his head, changed the subject and said, "You've hidden it well enough. It's actually related to Mr. Huang."

The police officers in the town may not know about Chief Huang's support for Chu Ning, but the police officers in the county almost know about it. Lao Liao has been in the patrol room for so many years and is a well-informed person.

Chu Ning smiled slightly and did not answer the question.

It was Lao Liao who came to listen to the show today. He believed that this was not what Lao Liao was going to say.

"With Chief Huang supporting you, it's obvious that no one will make trouble for you, but the patrol room is not monolithic. Some of the chiefs may have their minds set on the arrest competition."

What Lao Liao meant was that there was another force in the patrol room.

"Catch Dabi?"

"Every three years, all police officers can participate. This is to encourage the police officers to practice martial arts diligently on weekdays. The No. 1 in the competition will not only be rewarded by the court, but also be allowed inside our patrol room. He randomly selected the areas under his jurisdiction, and some agents who were assigned to areas with little profit or water were holding back their energy and wanted to make a splash in the competition. "

"Although Director Huang has said that you are the only one in Xiafeng Town now, the reward for the competition is the rules of the patrol room for many years. If No. 1 wants to choose Xiafeng Town, Director Huang can't deny it. "

"Does this mean that in this round of competition for police officers, I will definitely be chosen as No. 1 in Xiafeng Town?"

"Well, who said that Xiafeng Town is so rich now?" Lao Liao nodded: "Currently among our Daning County police officers, the strongest one is Zhang Tao, who weighs more than 800 kilograms. When Zhang Tao first entered the patrol room, I was the one who led him. He, I asked him out, you can chat with him later."

Chu Ning understands that Lao Liao hopes that he can reach an agreement with Zhang Tao. Zhang Tao is likely to be the first in the arrest competition. As long as Zhang Tao does not choose to come to Xiafeng Town, then his position as the catcher in Xiafeng Town will be secure. .

"Thank you, Lao Liao."

Chu Ning looked down on Zhang Tao, who was eight hundred pounds strong, but Lao Liao didn't know his true strength. This was out of good intentions, and he had to accept it.

A quarter of an hour later, Chu Ning's expression was normal, but Lao Liao's face was slightly ugly.

Chu Ning sighed inwardly, fearing that Zhang Tao did not regard Lao Liao as his master, the leader of the patrol room.

Otherwise, he and Lao Liao have been here listening to the play for half an hour. If he really wanted to respect Lao Liao, he should have come here long ago.

Half an hour later, Zhang Tao finally arrived.

He was tall and strong. As soon as he entered the theater, he saw Lao Liao and Chu Ning sitting at the table. He walked over and said loudly: "Old Liao, I was delayed by some official business and kept you waiting for a long time. Who is this?"

"This is Chu Ning. You are both young agents. Let's get to know each other..."

"Hi Brother Zhang."

Chu Ning greeted him first, but Zhang Tao just glanced at Chu Ning and then looked at Lao Liao: "Old Liao, what did you do?"

"I'll give you a clue. There's going to be a big competition soon. Your kid must be heading for No. 1. The area you're in charge of now is rich in oil and water. There's no need to focus on Xiafeng Town. Chu I would rather not let you suffer."

Listening to Lao Liao's words, Zhang Tao laughed again: "Old Liao, what are you talking about? There are so many arrests in our county, but I never dared to think about being No. 1. It's too early to talk about this now."

Zhang Tao sat down on the chair and looked at Xiaoxiang, who was singing on the stage: "Old Liao, if you like this opera singer, leave this matter to me. I will make sure that this woman will lie on your bed obediently at night. As a singer, what's the point of being innocent with her?"

Lao Liao's face darkened. Chu Ning knew that Zhang Tao had no intention of talking to him, and the last sentence was a mockery of Lao Liao.

If Zhang Tao had any respect for Lao Liao, even if he didn't know the real reason why Lao Liao took care of Xiaoxiang and mistakenly thought that Lao Liao liked Xiaoxiang, he would not have said such a thing.

Whether you respect a person enough depends on whether you respect the women around him. Of course, the kind of woman who is just having a playful attitude is not one of them.

Old Liao said coldly: "No need to trouble Captain Zhang."

Zhang Tao was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "I have some official business, so I'll leave first."

After saying that, he stood up and Zhang Tao waved to the waiter: "I'm going to reward Xiaoxiang with these two taels of silver. Let's just say that it was Captain Liao who rewarded her."

"Old Liao, then I'm leaving."

From the beginning to the end, Zhang Tao didn't say a word to Chu Ning. Old Liao looked livid: "Chun Ning, I can't help you any more. I'm not considered a master in the eyes of others."

Lao Liao would be lying if he said he was not angry. When Zhang Tao was first assigned to the patrol room, he was a stupid young man who offended not only the merchants but also the gangs. If he had not been the mediator, he would have been punished by those gang members long ago. Wasted.

"One kind of rice feeds a hundred kinds of people, don't be angry, old Liao, watch the show...Miss Xiaoxiang will be back soon."

Chu Ning comforted Lao Liao a few words. It seemed that there were many people staring at his position. Zhang Tao didn't give Lao Liao face. Although it was because Lao Liao didn't have much status in his heart, I'm afraid it was also because someone was painting him a picture behind his back. The reason for the cake.

After listening to the play for half an hour with Lao Liao, Chu Ning walked out of Goulan instead of returning to Xiafeng Town. Instead, she bought some snacks and headed to Huang's Mansion.

"Master Chu."

The housekeeper was a little surprised to see Chu Ning carrying snacks. In the past, Chu Ning always brought thoughtful gifts every time he came to the house.

"Butler, is Uncle Huang at the house?"

"Yes, I will take you to see the master." The housekeeper has already received the master's instructions. If Chu Ning comes to visit today, he will take him directly to the study.

The Huang family is a big one. Chu Ning followed the housekeeper for a few minutes before arriving at the study. Mr. Huang had just finished writing at this moment.

"Here we go, this is our first official meeting."

Huang Zhongtai looked at Chu Ning, who nodded and said, "I didn't dare to say hello to you in the patrol room because I was afraid of having a bad influence on you, Uncle Huang."

"Then why don't you ask to see me every time you come to your house?"

"Uncle Huang, your kindness to my nephew has always been in my heart. My nephew feels that if he comes to the house just to see Uncle Huang, it will become a clinging relationship. This is not what my nephew wants."

Chu Ning explained very clearly. I gave you some "thoughtful" gifts to Uncle Huang because I always remember your kindness to me. But if I seek to get close to you in the name of repaying your kindness, , that is a purposeful repayment of gratitude, which is not what I am willing to do.

"Oh, so you're here this time?"

"My nephew, I heard that there is a competition for police officers in one month."

Huang Zhongtai narrowed his eyes slightly: "Are you afraid that some agent will take No. 1 and squeeze your position as the agent of Xiafeng Town, and you want me to help you?"

"No."

Chu Ning shook his head. He knew that Huang Zhongtai had misunderstood him.

"My nephew said before that he only has a pure heart to repay Uncle Huang, so now he comes to ask for your help, isn't he sincere?"

"My nephew didn't want to come at first, just because he was afraid that Uncle Huang would misunderstand me, but after thinking about it, I feel that I can't come. If my nephew disrupts your plan because of my nephew, then my nephew will repay a favor with a grudge."

Huang Zhongtai's expression became serious and he stared at Chu Ning.

Chu Ning said directly without any ink, "My nephew has a strength of [-] kilograms."

The butler standing behind Chu Ning opened his mouth slightly after Chu Ning said these words. Huang Zhongtai was also startled: "Is this true?"

"If Uncle Huang doesn't believe it, I can prove it."

Huang Zhongtai immediately decided: "Go to the martial arts academy."

A quarter of an hour later, Huang Zhongtai returned to the study and laughed loudly: "Chun Ning, you did not disappoint me."

Just in the martial arts academy, Chu Ning exploded with a force of nearly [-] kilograms with one punch. This was already at the level of a quasi-martial arts master.

It is not that there are no quasi-martial arts agents in the patrol room, but those quasi-martial arts agents have already participated in the three-year arrest competition and cannot participate again.

Currently, no one who is qualified to participate in the competition is stronger than Chu Ning.

Fighting under a martial artist relies more on strength and not much skill at all, because whether it is speed or movement, the improvement of strength is limited before the dark strength is cultivated.

"Uncle Huang, if you have made arrangements for this competition, then I will..."

"No need, just take first place."

Huang Zhongtai was even more satisfied with Chu Ning. He was a good boy and would rather hide his clumsiness for the sake of his own layout.

He also came here as a young man. What young man is not full of energy? He was a high-spirited age, so how could he be willing to do stupid things?

"Take this "Ape Zong Step". This is a martial arts secret book for practicing body skills. You are strong enough now. Practicing "Ape Zong Step" will make your body skills more flexible when fighting."

"Thank you, Uncle Huang."

Chu Ning took the book excitedly. He knew how precious Daliang's martial arts secrets were. Ordinary people had no access to other martial arts secrets except the entrance hall, because these martial arts secrets were in the hands of martial arts families.

The martial arts families in Daliang are all truly wealthy, so it seems that Uncle Huang's background is unusual.

The housekeeper sent Chu Ning out of the gate and returned, hesitatingly saying, "Sir, are you going to give Chu Ning this "Ape Walk"?"

Huang Zhongtai did not answer the butler's doubts, but said, "Do you know why there are more merchants in Xiafeng Town?"

The butler shook his head.

"Chun Ning went to Xiafeng Town. He collected tax money very casually. As long as the merchants didn't go too far, he didn't care if they paid less. Some merchants even allowed the merchants to default on their payments when their families were in urgent need of money."

"It's nothing if you are a child of a rich family. You just think that you don't like this small amount of money. But Chu Ning's family is poor and he still owes a lot of money to take care of his old aunt. If you are Chu Ning, and you have such a person What will you do if you have the opportunity to collect as much tax money as you want and put it into your own pocket?”

The housekeeper somewhat understood: "The younger ones will try their best to squeeze out these merchants, because they will be transferred out at some point. If they miss this opportunity, they will not have such a good opportunity."

"Yes, this is what most people think. When Zhao Bing told me that Chu Ning was going to Xiafeng Town, even I thought that Chu Ning wanted to go to Xiafeng Town to collect money from those merchants. I didn't expect it. I made a mistake."

"It's not that I'm mistaken, I can only say that Chu Ning is different from what most people think." The butler added.

"Back then, Chu Ning didn't have any potential, so I even sold him a favor. Now that Chu Ning has the potential to become a martial artist, it doesn't hurt to help him again. But don't forget, even if you study in the school for three years, there will be no one who can break through to become a martial artist. Very few.”

PS: I mentioned adding 12 chapters to the monthly ticket, so I added them immediately. It’s quite substantial, right? Also, the chapter at [-]am will be released after [-]am. Another point is that I want to continue reading. Today is the first day of recommendation. I have a thousand collections, but I don’t know what it will be like to follow up. Daniel Wu who has collected it, don’t keep it. If you don’t follow up this collection, the retention rate will plummet.
