in charge

"My lord!" Zhou Wen was a little reluctant when he heard Yuan Cheng's words, and squinted at Mo Zi, his eyes were angry, "Selling her 5000 taels, we have already suffered a big loss. It would be too expensive to give her another one for free." gone."

"What price is there, can it be compared with my own life? Didn't Boss Zhou say just now that when a person dies, what do you need money for?" Mo Zi didn't blush for her hypocritical morality. She didn't steal or rob. The first corrupt official, the lion, speaks loudly, which is equivalent to pulling out the root of a cow, without guilt.

As expected of the number one corrupt official, he was already in prison, and he was able to escape, and there was someone like Zhou Wen who worked for him.Moreover, seeing that he is the master of Shuijingzhu's selling and giving away, it is obvious that this Zhuyuji has a close relationship with him, maybe he is the real boss.

"So, Brother Mo agreed?" Yuan Cheng ignored Zhou Wen and only asked Mo Zi.

"To tell you the truth, my lord, I am really moved." She brought six more, and she didn't mind taking one more away.A bead of 20 taels is definitely a fat bait that I have to swallow for myself who has less than ten taels in savings.

"Nonsense, you don't spend a penny, you need a lot of money." Zhou Wen is a profitable businessman, he complained bluntly in front of Yuan Cheng, unlike a loyal servant.

"Brother Mo, please continue." Yuan Cheng ignored Zhou Wen to the end.

Not only a corrupt official, but also a smart official.Mo Zi looked at the hunchbacked figure in front of him, "Although my heart is moved, I still hesitate. I wonder if my lord has ever heard the story of the scorpion and the frog?" Even though the bait is big, you have to take it off before eating.

"Yuan is listening." His throat seemed to be crushed by a stone mill, it was hoarse, and he seemed to be speechless at any moment.

"The scorpion wants to cross the river, but he can't swim. At this time, a frog wants to cross the river. So he asks the frog to carry him across the river. The frog refuses, saying that your tail is poisonous, and what will you do if you stab me. The scorpion promised the frog again and again that it would never stab it. The scorpion said, if I stab you while crossing the river, you will die, and I will die too. How could I stab you? The frog thought it was right, so he agreed to carry It's over. My lord, can you guess the result?" On a whim, Mo Zi forgot the turmoil caused by telling a story in the Qiu Mansion before, and told another story.

Yuan Cheng didn't say a word for a while, when Mo Zi thought he couldn't guess, he answered, "I guess, the scorpion still stabbed the frog to death, and then drowned himself."

"That's right." Mo Zi thought, no wonder it is said that since ancient times, treacherous ministers are also capable ministers, but loyal ministers may not be smart. "The frog asked the scorpion before he was about to die. You knew that you would die if you stabbed me. Why did you insist on stabbing me? Scorpion replied naively, I can't do anything, because this is my nature. The lord sent me water Zhu, I am indeed greedy. But if I take my lord across the river, if I encounter a navy army on the way, even if my lord doesn’t want to implicate me, I’m afraid I won’t be able to escape the crime. I don’t have any private goods on board, and if I’m caught, I’ll be beaten a few times at most. Ten boards. But if it is helping a prisoner escape, it is a capital offense. As long as I think of this, I hesitate like a frog."

"What do you want?" Yuan Cheng, being a smart person, immediately asked Mo Zi.

"It's not difficult. As long as the adults sign a life-and-death contract with me, if you encounter officers and soldiers unfortunately, I will let you dive, and you have to jump. If you die, your family will not be able to hold me accountable. Life It's your luck, death is your fate. This is the rule of our private boat." A deed means that death is irrelevant.

"Take two beads, not only can't protect people from crossing the river, but also let people die without implicating you. It's too cruel." Zhou Wen was so angry that he thought to himself who did he recruit?

"I said it just in case. What's more, he jumped into the water. In order to prevent the officers and soldiers from finding out the private goods, I have to dispose of the beads, right? Besides, my brothers on a boat can't die for someone I don't know. "Mo Zi said very clearly, "My lord, as long as you agree, we can set off tomorrow morning."

"My lord, I think it's better to wait. I'll find a way to send you out of the city after your injury has healed and the rumors have passed. Then you can take the small road. Although it will take more time, it will be safer than the waterway." Zhou Wen thought of it It hurts to lose two water purification beads.

"Then it's up to you. Don't worry, I'm very strict. If you can't make a deal, benevolence and righteousness exist." How should I say it?If people give her a chance to be greedy, of course she will do her best to fight for it.If you don't give it, she doesn't care.

"Brother Mo, don't be impatient. Yuan didn't say no." Yuan Cheng spoke much slower than before, with uneven breathing and a dull sound in his throat.

"My lord!" Zhou Wen stomped forward.

"Brother Mo was born in Dazhou?" Yuan Cheng's attitude towards Zhou Wen was extremely indifferent, and he only talked to Mo Zi.

"No, I was originally from Yuling. My relatives in my hometown were in trouble. I ran away alone and was rescued by my boss." Why did you ask her where she came from?Puzzled in her heart, Mo Zi was [-].

"Then you should hate Daqiu." Seeing that he was about to lose his grip, Yuan Cheng said slowly, "You've been in Dazhou not long ago, do you know about me, Yuan Cheng?"

Mo Zi shook his head, "It's been less than a year since I arrived in Dazhou, and it's only the third time I've been to Nande, and every time I rush in and out, I've never heard about the lord. Since yesterday, I've only heard about the lord's name." Not the name , is the nickname, the nickname of the first corrupt official.

"I was born in the Great Zhou Dynasty. My grandfather worshiped the first-rank governor, and my father was the crown prince's Taifu. He taught the prince for five years. A list of treason was implicated. The former emperor didn't care about right and wrong, and divided the two into five horses, implicating the nine clans. Nurse I escaped alone, and all my brothers and sisters were arrested. Back then, when I was five years old, I remembered the ferocious anger of the officers and soldiers in front of my house, and I swore from then on that I would never return." Yuan Cheng is not the number one corrupt official at the moment, but just a lonely dependent victims of injustice.

Mo Zi thought, does he want to win sympathy?

"Brother Mo thought, why did I change my mind now that I never wanted to step into the Great Zhou?" Yuan Cheng was not as superficial as she thought, "Because I am afraid of death. As long as I can survive, even if it is a place where the whole family dies , I will go back again. I am afraid of dying to the point of abandoning my family feud, and I don’t have the scorpion’s instinct to stab people even if it dies.”

Mo Zi looked at him with admiration, really excellent persuasion.

"I'm lucky, but not my life. Brother Mo, I agree with you. If I die in the river, I should be responsible for myself, and I don't blame others. Besides, I, Yuan Cheng, have relatives in this world. If I die, no one will stand up for me In Nande, I made people angry. I don’t know how many people clapped their hands when they heard the news of my death.” Yuan Cheng coughed violently again, but his hands rested on his lap, motionless, “However, Brother Mo also needs to know , my arms have been broken, and it is inconvenient to walk. If you don’t think it’s troublesome, please come pick me up tomorrow. As for the reward, when I get on the boat, I’ll give you a pair of pearls.”

Mo Zi was first surprised by the tortuous life experience of the first corrupt official, and then admired how his body can talk and laugh happily after enduring such pain.

"Master Yuan, please rest well. Tomorrow morning, I will come to pick you up in person. Let me go." The first corrupt official, at least with true temperament, she thought so.

With a flick of the green shirt, the sleeves flew away, and bowed deeply.
