Chapter 33 News about whale blood!
"A fair and fat young man?"

Fang Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly and thought of Sikong Jihuai's honest and honest face, always smiling.

The eldest son of the Sikong family is a little too enthusiastic.

He shook his head gently. People in the world said that this eldest son was friendly to others and had no ambitions. He was a rare kind person in aristocratic families.

Judging from that encounter with the eldest son, Sikong Jihuai was indeed as good as the rumors said. He was kind and treated others like a spring breeze.

But for some reason, he always felt that there was an unexplainable gloom behind Sikong Jihuai's always smiling face.

"Brother, that fat young man is so nice. He knew you were sleeping so he didn't disturb you. He even invited Xiaoli and me to play in the city." Fang Lan's eyes turned into crescents when she smiled, and she had a good impression of Sikong Jihuai.

"Well, have less contact with him." Fang Xuan breathed out lightly. He still didn't believe that as the eldest son of a family, Sikong Jihuai received the most orthodox family education, how could he be as good as he appeared on the outside? Simple minded?

A litter of wolf cubs cannot produce a dog!

Fang Xuan glanced sideways at the front of the house and saw several heavy red paint boxes stacked in front of the house. The silver light inside could be vaguely seen through the gaps.

Uncle Yuan sent the money, which was as he expected.

This is not to say that Uncle Yuan really values ​​his wife and daughter more than money, but from Uncle Yuan's point of view, as soon as Zheng Juexiong comes back, even if he gives the money now, won't he pay it back in full?

"It's a whale hunter."

Fang Xuan narrowed his eyes. As a fisherman, he had naturally heard of whale hunting boats.

That is a ship that can sail to the deep sea and hunt big whales!
"I was worried about where to find whale blood. This whale hunting ship came at the right time!"

Fang Xuan's eyes flashed, and he immediately took off a raincoat hanging on the wall and strode out.

"Brother, post the couplets."

Before Fang Lan finished speaking, Fang Xuan had already disappeared into the thick night.

The evening breeze blows gently and the full moon hangs high.

At the time of Haishi, the county government's Yamen prison room in Dongcheng was brightly lit.

Bang Chi~ Bang Chi~ Bang Chi!

As soon as Fang Xuan came to the door of this class room, he heard waves of faint sounds, and vaguely, it seemed that there was a man kowtowing and begging for mercy.

Fang Xuan frowned and knocked on the door.

crunch.

The door opened a crack, and an official looked up at Fang Xuan, then turned around and shouted in: "Brother Zheng, Fang Xuan is here!"

"Fang Xuan is here? Huh, let him in!" Yang Zheng's gasping voice came out from inside.

The door to the class room was then opened.

Fang Xuan stepped in, and a pungent fishy smell made him frown. He looked up again.

I saw a plump woman in half-dressed clothes being pinned down by two officials in front of the table and unable to move!

There were two lines of clear tears hanging on that relatively good-looking face, and his expression was numb and empty, like an empty shell whose soul had been taken away.

Behind her, Yang Zheng kept pushing forward with force.

A poor man with a thin body and a sallow face wearing a coarse sweatshirt, with bloody palm marks on his face, was kneeling on the ground beside him, kowtowing hard to Yang Zheng!

Fang Xuan's eyes gradually narrowed.

Fang Xuan had some impressions of this poor man. When he was a child, he was called Brother Shunzi. He was an honest man and one of the few tenants in the east of the city.

I heard that I have married a beautiful woman and given birth to a baby girl in recent years. My life is not very good, but it is still warm.

"Master Yang, sir, please! I beg you, please let our family go, let my mother-in-law go!"

A heartbreaking voice came from the poor man's mouth. "Let you go? Okay, you owe us a total of three taels, six cents and eight cents in taxes. You owe us a total of twenty days. I will make it easy for you and give you ten taels of silver. You can take out the silver and I will Let you go!"

The poor man felt as if he was struck by lightning when he heard this, and stared blankly at Yang Zheng with a sneer on his face.

ten taels of silver
All his belongings had been gradually drained by Yang Zheng. He couldn't even get out a hundred cents, so where did he get ten taels of silver?

"You can't pay it out, right? It doesn't matter. I remember that your family still has five acres of land, and your daughter is almost ten years old." Yang Zheng was about to speak.

"Brother Zheng is so angry today? Can all the women in the village eat it? Why don't you let me arrange some young girls in the hook bar to honor Brother Zheng!"

The words were interrupted by laughter.

Yang Zheng rushed hard, then stood up and tightened his belt, while glaring at the poor man and saying: "Shunzi, you are a good bitch, I will come back later!"

After saying that, he just raised his head and glanced at Fang Xuan who made a sound with a smile on his face.

"Tsk, tsk, these days are really different from the past. Master Fang is now the master of the hall. He is so majestic! Are you all making fun of me?

Come out, I have something to tell you! "

After the words fell, Yang Zheng strode out of the class room, took out a chair in the lobby and sat down.

Fang Xuan looked back at the poor man who moved his knees forward and tremblingly dressed his mother-in-law, and couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Yang Zheng is a man who is greedy for money and lustful, and he likes to have sex with other people's wives and daughters. This is not the first time something like this has happened!
He looked at Yang Zheng who was sitting in the lobby sipping tea, a cold look flashed deep in his eyes, then he strode out and also took a chair and sat down.

"What did Brother Zheng say? Even if we, scoundrels like us, continue to fool around, why don't we just listen to your official's orders and do things?" A smile appeared on Fang Xuan's face.

"Really? Then I hope you can keep your word. It's not easy for low-level people like you to climb to this position, but you can't lose yourself all of a sudden and lose sight of your status."

Yang Zhengyi glanced at Fang Xuan pointedly.

Then, he changed the topic and asked with a smile:
"Axuan, I heard that you were in Nancheng today and extorted ten thousand taels of silver there? As far as I know, Dongcheng can't use ten thousand taels, right?"

There were no oil lamps in the Yamen lobby, and the night was rising, filling it with gloom and darkness.

Fang Xuan's face looked dim in the night, making it difficult to see his expression.

Hearing that Fang Xuan didn't reply for a while, Yang Zheng couldn't help but frown slowly.

"Dongcheng does not cost ten thousand taels, but Brother Zheng is so busy working for me, how can I let Brother Zheng work in vain?"

Suddenly, with a burst of laughter, a land deed was handed over from Fang Xuan's hand.

Yang Zheng took the land deed and took a look at it. He immediately relaxed his brows and laughed loudly: "Hahaha, Ah Xuan! I just said that you are different from other scoundrels. You are indeed up to the mark!"

"Ha." In the dim light, Fang Xuan twitched the corner of his mouth expressionlessly.

This bastard had plucked the feathers of geese and peeled the bark of trees. He had already guessed that Yang Zheng would come to him to beg for money.

"Axuan, don't call me a greedy brother. You have to know that if you always respect me, I also have to respect the people above you."

Yang Zheng patted Fang Xuan on the shoulder, as if he was afraid that Fang Xuan would be dissatisfied, and gave a symbolic relief.

Then, he calmly put the land deed into his sleeve, turned around and said with a smile:

"Axuan, don't say that my brother takes money but doesn't do the work. I have a good job for you this time!"

"What a good job?" Fang Xuan sneered in his heart, probably because he wanted to do something dirty again. .

Yang Zheng took a sip from the tea cup and cleared his throat: "A whale hunting ship belonging to the imperial court was robbed by a group of water bandits in Pingjiang while carrying thousands of kilograms of whale blood through our waterway. Now the imperial court is over there. I don’t know about this yet, but the magistrate ordered me to find out the location of the water bandits within seven days and wipe out the water bandits!”

"Axuan, I'll leave this matter to you. If you succeed, my career will be promising. When the time comes, I will be in a higher position and I will never treat you badly!"

As soon as he said these words, Fang Xuan felt a rush of blood rushing to the top of his head and couldn't help but laugh in anger.

Damn your mother!

The water bandits who can rob the imperial official ship should be suppressed by a mere scoundrel?
Doesn’t this mean that the Nine-Headed Insect asked Ben Bo’er Ba to deal with Tang Monk and his disciples? !
