Sure enough, early the next morning, not long after the door of the eldest brother's gambling house was opened, the yacha came to the door.

There were three people who came, wearing felt hats, red clothes, a scarf tied to their chests, a knife at their waists, and a one-handed handle of the knife, with extraordinary bearing.

The person in front of the head shouted directly: "What about Ganchi? Tell him to come to the official quickly. ”

Gan Qi had been instructed before his head, but he was not so panicked, but he only led people upstairs, poured tea, and went to invite Gan Qi.

Gan Qi was practicing with Zhou Dong in the morning, and now Zhou Dong lived directly in Gan Qi's house, just for the convenience of Gan Qi's practice.

At this time, Gan Qi took Zhou Tong and rushed to the second floor of the gambling house, and after saluting respectfully, he asked, "I don't know where the three officials are?" ”

"This official is Kaifeng Mansion to inspect and arrest He Hai, you are Gan Qi?" As He Hai spoke, he was also looking Gan Qi up and down, but he was a little surprised, he was surprised that Gan Qi was so young.

Gan Qi was also surprised to hear a patrol arrester open and close his mouth and call himself "this official". The Great Song Dynasty really had many characteristics of modern society.

For example, in terms of title, a patrol arrester dares to call himself "this official". This is not counted, for example, "Xianggong" once, at the beginning of the Northern Song Dynasty, it specifically referred to the chief officials of the two governments and three divisions, these people were the prime ministers of the Great Song Dynasty, so they were called "Xianggong".

Later, the title of "Xianggong" slowly flooded, and the third-grade official or the fifth-grade official was managed, and the people below opened and closed their mouths in order to please him. If you really want to talk about it, a person like Bao Zheng and Ouyang Xiu is far from being qualified to be called a prince at this time, but the people who call them so flattering are not one or two.

After that, even the standard title of a prefect and county is a common one. It's just that I don't know why my wife called her husband later, and she also used the word "Xianggong". The original meaning of the prime minister is the honorific title of the prime minister.

Just like in later generations, titles such as "CEO", "Manager", and "Director" were originally the identities of a few people. Later, the streets were full of a certain boss, a certain manager, and a certain director.

At this time, the matter of a patrol arrester claiming to be his own official is nothing. Although in the eyes of the literati, the status of these people is extremely low, but in the eyes of the common people, the power is really not small.

If it is compared, the power to inspect and arrest heads is almost equivalent to that of the director of public security. But if you really want to compare a certain official position in the Song Dynasty to the director of public security, it is more appropriate to mention the sentence. But the punishment is the real official, and the people who do the work are still the people who patrol and arrest the head.

Gan Qi replied: "In Xia Ganqi, I have seen He Zhutou." ”

He Hai looked at it a few times and raised his head: "Well, you are Gan Qi, what kind of amazing character is this official Huandao, Yuan Dao is a milky boy, Wang Sheng, Wang Sheng, you are getting more and more back." ”

Gan Qi only frowned again and again when he heard it, but he saw He Hai take a sip of the teacup, waved his big hand, and said: "There is nothing else to do with you, tomorrow, you will close this gambling house." ”

He Hai had originally prepared a speech, but seeing such a young Gan Qi at this time, he didn't bother to say those vague beating words.

Gan Qi asked, "I don't know if there is room for maneuver?" In the next year, I will always keep to myself, whether I have to pay taxes, or I want to work hard, I must not dare to shirk in the future. ”

He Hai waved his hand, his tone rose, and he only said: "If you are told to close the door, you will close the door, where is there so much nonsense, if you don't close the door, this official will bring the brothers to you every day to take people to eat prison food, how many bowls can you eat?" ”

Gan Qi understood that this was not something that could be solved by giving money, this was what he couldn't drive. What Wang Sheng wants is that Gan Qi is cornered, and maybe he also wants Gan Qi's lucky wheel.

Gan Qi was not angry, he had expected it. All replied easily: "He catches his head, cutting off people's money, such as killing his parents." Does it have to be like this? ”

"Bold! Are you threatening your own officials? He Hai's face was full of anger, holding the hilt of the knife, and his words were righteous.

"He catches the head, gathering crowds to gamble is illegal. If it is closed and banned, it is fine. He catches the head of justice and integrity, and admires him. There is a Quartet gambling house not far from the head, and He Zhutou is invited to take people to ban it together, so that people can be convinced. What Gan Qi said is true, the founding of the Song Dynasty explicitly prohibited gathering crowds to gamble, and it was clearly recorded in the law, and the most serious ones were even confiscated and beheaded.

But by the time the Song Dynasty arrived, gambling had long been rampant, and the law had become a dead letter. Even those dignitaries and dignitaries, the ministers of the scholar clan are involved, regardless of the play, at this time in Bianjing City, there is also a gambling activity that is extremely popular among those dignitaries, that is, to promote weaving, that is, fighting crickets, gambling money fighting crickets.

The game of the Great Song Dynasty, the game of gambling, that is the best in ancient and modern, full of means, from the palace to the small people in the market, the whole people participated.

There is money and leisure, human nature is like this.

He Hai saw that Gan Qi was still bargaining with him at such a young age, and he was already angry, pointing at Gan Qi and saying: "I don't know what to do, the Japanese official will bring people here, see one and catch the other." ”

After speaking, He Hai turned around and left, went back to the mansion to invite people, and waited until tomorrow to see how much money this ignorant Gan Qi could come up with to ransom people.

Gan Qi walked to the gate and looked at He Hai who was leaving, thinking about it repeatedly in his mind.

Gan Ba and Zhou Tong on the side were all full of worry, the government is really powerful for good people, even Gan Ba, who has always fought and killed, did not say a word at this time, even he knew that this was not something that could be solved by fighting, killing and killing.

Gan Qi, who had been thinking about it for a long time, suddenly turned his head and said, "Duba, go up and take down the plaque of the big brother's gambling house." ”

"Big brother, do you really want to close the door?"

"Closed? The Sifang Casino is closed, and we won't be closed. You go to find someone to make a plaque and write Big Brother Caifang. Change that gambling word to a color word. Gan Qi didn't think much about it, and felt that the Black Tiger Gang was called "Quartet Casino", so he would also take a gambling house. At this time, when I looked back, I realized that this gambling word was inappropriate.

The Black Tiger Gang is flamboyant, with someone behind them and no fear. Ganqi is habitually low-key, even if the law has become a dead letter, Ganqi still tries to avoid it.

"Big brother, Caifang, do others still think that the eldest brother sells cloth and dyeing?" Gan Ba replied.

"You do it quickly, I'll go into the city." After Gan Qi finished speaking, he took Zhou Tong to Bianliang City.

Why did Ganchi enter the city? Naturally, we have to find a solution, not just a solution to the closed door. It is also necessary to solve the problem of Wang Sheng's backing, as long as the backing behind Wang Sheng is solved, Wang Sheng is nothing to Gan Qi. Gan Qi understands the essence of this kind of thing.

As for who Wang Sheng's backer is, nine times out of ten it is He Hai, the head of this Kaifeng Mansion inspection. Above He Hai, they are all people who have been sentenced, judged, and promoted, and they are all civil officials of no lower grade. These people are not accessible to people like Wang Sheng, and it is impossible for these people to care about these small things in the market.

As for how to solve this problem, Gan Qi walked to the door of Kaifeng Mansion and wandered left and right for a moment.
