The richest man’s family naturally wanted to rescue the son-in-law.
When they learned that he was in the imperial prison, they were so scared that they lost one of their souls. They were so cruel that they encouraged their daughter to divorce her son-in-law and break up with him.
The imperial prison was a place where money could not get you in. In the eyes of the Jinyiwei, the little rich man was not enough to bite.
The richest man’s daughter was naturally unwilling. First, she liked him, second, she wanted to save face and reputation, and third, they had a child. However, when she thought of entering such a terrible place as the imperial prison, she was afraid... she was sad for a while.
Just when the family was frowning, the Tianlao came to ask them if they wanted to rescue him. The Tianlao emphasized humane law enforcement and had a good reputation. They could ask around. The richest man’s family was instantly tempted.
They hadn’t asked about the Tianlao yet, but they had heard about the situation in the Tianlao. Compared with the imperial prison, it was one in heaven and one in the ground, and they were incomparable.
It was just money...
Money was not a problem.
As long as he can get the person out of the imperial prison, he will be willing to spend any amount of money. The richest man revealed the details. Within 100,000 taels, there will be no problem. If it is more than 100,000 taels, he will be released safely. The Tianlao does not need to worry about the subsequent reinstatement.
Chen Guanlou got the confirmed news, and his heart was immediately hot.
100,000 taels!
If he does not do this deal, he will be struck by lightning.
He saved the effort of looking for the imperial prison.
The bastards in the imperial prison, who did not even show their eagles when they saw a rabbit, were all a bunch of dogs who ate people without spitting out bones. It was not easy to explain at all, just like the stones in the pit, smelly and hard. It looks soft, but when you pinch it, it will cause a fishy smell.
He directly sent a message to Xiao Jincheng and made an appointment to go to the flower house to drink together.
He was also curious whether the cold-faced King of Hell also had a coffin face when he hugged the beautiful girl.
Xiao Jincheng agreed to the appointment, but changed the meeting place to the painting boat, which he would decide.
Chen Guanlou agreed readily.
On the appointed day, Chen Guanlou arrived at the painted boat in the middle of the lake on time.
It was a lonely boat, and apart from the waitress, there was no beautiful girl.
Chen Guanlou:...
What do you mean?
Don't like beauty?
Don't care about the secular world?
Do you want to become a monk?
Why does a man like him live a more frugal life than him?
Is he pursuing the highest state of no women in his heart?
"The place chosen by Lord Xiao is unique."
Xiao Jincheng has been waiting in the painted boat for a long time, "This place is suitable for conversation. Too many people are not good."
"Lord Xiao is worthy of being a Jinyiwei, always on guard. Unlike me, a mere jailer in Tianlao, I can't think so much. When I heard about the painted boat, I only thought of having fun. I completely ignored the possibility of having ears in this place, and the privacy of the conversation."
Chen Guanlou sat down on the left hand side of the small square table.
The maid served tea, and left the teapot without saying a word. She was as well-behaved as a robot.
"Why should you be so modest, Chen Yucheng? I said that too many people are not good, and you can think of the beauty of it. It shows that you are also suitable for the work of Jinyiwei."
"I can't do it, I can't do it." Chen Guanlou waved his hands repeatedly, denying that he would rather die than be a Jinyiwei. They are all dogs, but he would rather be a running dog for the court in Tianlao than a running dog in Jinyiwei. Living in the open air, bearing the infamy, and having blood on his hands, it seems to be glorious, but it is difficult to have a good end.
Xiao Jincheng raised his eyebrows slightly, "Chen Yucheng seems to have a little prejudice against Jinyiwei."
"It's not prejudice, but there are some differences in concepts. Of course, we all eat public meals and are brothers. Jinyiwei is the elder brother, and we are the younger brother. Now I, the younger brother, have encountered a little trouble, and I want to ask my brother for help. I wonder what Lord Xiao thinks?"
So direct?
Straight to the point!
Xiao Jincheng's mouth twitched slightly, as if he wanted to smile, but failed.
"I don't know what the trouble is, tell me first."
Chen Guanlou came a little closer, lowered his voice, and said mysteriously: "I have a treasure that was stolen. Now I want to get it back. Can Lord Xiao help me with this?"
Xiao Jincheng's expression was a bit intriguing, and he asked bluntly: "May I ask Chen Yucheng, where is this treasure now? Who is guarding it?"
Chen Guanlou gritted his teeth, hesitated for two seconds, and said: "This treasure is far away in the sky and close at hand. Lord Xiao can help me get the treasure back while chatting and laughing. How about it? I can help you with this favor. I will definitely reward you handsomely later."
Snake Xiao Jincheng picked up the teacup and pretended to be thoughtful, "I am bold At first guess, the treasure is in Jinyiwei, or more precisely, in the imperial prison, right? "
"Oh! As expected of Lord Xiao, you are so clear about everything." Chen Guanlou also picked up the teacup, "I will use tea instead of wine to toast you."
"Is this treasure valuable?"
"It is indeed worth some money, provided that it is not damaged. You know the place of the imperial prison, people who go in will inevitably lose arms and legs. If the treasure is missing parts, I am afraid that the customer will not approve it."
Xiao Jincheng chuckled twice, his expression was like a dead relative, "What benefits can I get?"
"Gold, silver and treasures, there is always one. Lord Xiao, this favor is not a trouble." Chen Guanlou asked tentatively.
Xiao Jincheng put down the teacup, "Such a big treasure, why don't I choose to eat it, but let your Tianlao take advantage of it? When did Tianlao make more money than Jinyiwei?"
Chen Guanlou waved his hand, completely disagreeing with the other party's statement.
It's not that he looked down on the Jinyiwei, but the rough way they did things and their ruthlessness of killing people with knives at the slightest disagreement made them unsuitable for doing delicate work.
He patiently explained: "That's not the way it is. You Jinyiwei are doing one-time business. We Tianlao are doing long-term business. Not only can we make customers willing to pay, but they will also be grateful to us after paying.
You Jinyiwei can't do this. You are too impatient when doing things. You want to arrest people today and sentence them tomorrow and behead them the day after tomorrow. You don't care about the bottom line of the law at all. This is what people criticize.
For the same amount of money, you don't have to bear the stigma, you don't have to work hard, and you don't even have to talk. You can achieve it by cooperating with us Tianlao. Why not?"
Xiao Jincheng looked unmoved.
Chen Guanlou bared his teeth and asked simply, "How much do you want? Just name a price. As long as I can do it, I will do my best to make it happen."
Xiao Jincheng looked at him curiously, "Why is Chen Yucheng so sure that I will agree to cooperate with you? Jinyiwei and Tianlao have never had any connection, let alone cooperation."
Chen Guanlou began to talk nonsense, using his eloquence to deceive, "Everything has a first time. Last time, you sent Fan the prison guard back, and although he died in the end, I owe you a favor. I think that was the starting point for our two units to start cooperating. If there is one, there will be another. There is no need to be like mortal enemies. Fighting alone is always lonely and lonely, and it is easy to be attacked when you are down. It won't hurt to make more friends."
