Tony frowned, he finally caught up with Bill, and what he talked about today was quite pleasant, but it was all mixed up by Lin Xia, but he thought that the current protection work of the Ning Xiang Pavilion was all in charge of Lin Xia's people, if he didn't go, Lin Xia might not necessarily do anything to himself, and said to Bill: "My lord, do you see this?"

Bill said indifferently: "It's okay, in this case, I'll go and have a look with you." "This Lin Xia was personally explained by the vice governor, and he made himself polite to Lin Xia, what does this mean, it shows that there are people above Lin Xia, and even the deputy governor can't afford to provoke them.

Tony didn't know what Bill was thinking, thinking that Bill was willing to help him, so he hurriedly thanked Bill, and the three of them went to the incense pavilion together.

On the way, the bustard reported the matter to Tony, Tony just frowned, he couldn't figure out why Lin Xia wanted to protect the slave, and it was normal for the slave to receive guests.

He looked at Bill again, but Bill didn't say anything, just smiled at Tony. Tony saw Bill smiling at himself, thinking that Bill was ready to support himself, and he was a little bolder. Although Lin Xia is a nobleman, he has declined, the so-called county officials are not as good as the current management, the sheriff is here, you Lin Xia can still make trouble.

After the bustard left, Lin Xia sat on the sofa and asked the woman, "What's your name?"

The woman was obviously still scared, but she also knew that it was Lin Xia who saved her, and replied, "My name is Mandy." ”

"How did you get sold to the slave market?" Lin Xia asked.

"My father is a gambler, and he has sold everything he can in the family, and my father owes money in the casino, so he has to sell me to pay off the debt. Mandy cried.

"Does your father know that the person who bought you is in the leather and meat business?" Lin Xia continued.

"Yes. Mandy's expression was a little lost, and said: "But my father has been cut off a finger by the casino owner, and if he can't pay back the money, I'm afraid his life will be difficult to save." ”

"Do you hate your father?" Lin Xia asked.

"Hate and don't hate. Mandy said: "My mother died young, and my father was very kind to me when I was young, but then I don't know why, I became addicted to gambling. I still remember the first time he gambled, and he made money to buy me a lot of delicious food. ”

"Do you want to go home?" Lin Xia asked.

"I don't have a home anymore, and my father has sold the house and everything he can sell. Mandy said.

Lin Xia nodded, did not continue to ask Mandy, sat on the sofa and waited, and after a while, Troy and Xavier arrived first, bowed their heads, and said respectfully: "Big brother." ”

"Xavier, where did all the women in our brothel come from?" Lin Xia asked.

Xavier didn't expect Lin Xia to ask this, and hurriedly said, "Some of them came voluntarily because of family difficulties, and some of them were bought in the slave market. ”

"If they came voluntarily, how much would you give them?" Lin Xia asked.

"Two to five gold coins a month for a good look, and a gold coin for a good look plus some silver coins. Xavier said.

Lin Xia then asked, "What about the slave market?"

Xavier said: "If they are bought in the slave market, if they are willing to take customers, each of them has a gold coin, and if they do not want to go to the VIP room of the casino to work as a waiter, or to work as a servant for an old brother who has been injured before, of course there is no salary." ”

Lin Xia was very satisfied with Xavier's answer, he didn't want his brother to do this kind of forced prostitution. But it's no wonder that Xavier is poor, and although Tony only has the Incense Pavilion, he may make more profit than Xavier.

Lin Xia asked Xavier and Troy about the situation again, and the two answered truthfully.

After Tony and the three arrived at the incense pavilion, Tony motioned to Bill to invite him first, but Bill was not polite, and walked into the hall first, where he saw Lin Xia sitting on the sofa and the others standing near Lin Xia.

Bill was the first to greet him, "Young Master Lin Xia." ”

Lin Xia didn't expect Bill to follow, so he didn't get up, but said, "It turned out to be Chief Bill, today is our family matter, you sit aside first." ”

Bill wasn't angry, but went to the sofa not far away to sit down, and the waiter from the incense hall immediately brought tea.

After Tony came in, seeing Lin Xia's attitude towards Bill, he applauded Lin Xia in his heart, you Lin Xia continue to be fierce to Bill, see what you do in the future. Still respectfully said to Lin Xia: "Young Master Lin Xia, why are you calling me so urgently?"

Lin Xia didn't reply directly to Tony's words, let Troy and Xavier listen together, and said, "I'll announce a few rules now. After a pause, he continued: "The brothel is not allowed to force the good into a prostitute, and if the girls are unwilling, it is not allowed to be forced. ”

When Tony heard this, he immediately said, "If that's the case, wouldn't there be no girl." ”

Lin Xia ignored Tony and continued: "If someone forces Liang to become a prostitute again, Hong Xing will no longer protect him, and at the same time break a leg as punishment. ”

Tony felt that if this was the case, he would have no source for the girl, and how could there be any guests, so he said, "Young Master Lin Xia, this is not good, where can you let me find a girl to accompany the guests." ”

Lin Xia said: "You can hire with a high salary, and there will still be girls who are willing to come." Lin Xia didn't want to interfere with the voluntary person, after all, he was not a saint.

As soon as Tony heard that he was hired with a high salary, and he also paid the girls every month, how could there be any money to be made, so he hurriedly said: "Young Master Lin Xia, we said okay, you can't interfere in my business." ”

"If you do business well, of course I won't interfere. Lin Xia paused for a moment and said coldly: "However, since the Ningxiang Pavilion is protected by me Hongxing, you must abide by my Hongxing's rules, of course, you can also not abide by it, I will immediately withdraw the protection, but ......"

Tony listened to Lin Xia's words, although Lin Xia didn't say anything, Tony also knew in his heart the consequences of breaking away from Hongxing's protection. Even if Hong Xing doesn't have the idea of Ning Xiang Pavilion, he has no one in his hands now, so can he let the bustard and the girls solve the trouble. He could only look at Bill as if he was crying for help, and Bill was drinking his tea to himself, as if he didn't see Tony's cry for help.

Lin Xia said: "Xavier, in the future, Hongxing's brothel will increase the salaries of the girls and change them to three gold coins, so that someone will be willing to come." Try not to go to the slave market again to buy it. Although Lin Xia is not used to the slave market, he has no ability to change it for the time being, so he can only let his people no longer go to the slave market.

As soon as Tony heard that the three gold coins were starting, he was even more anxious, and went directly to Bill and said, "Sir Bill, you have to help me talk, if this continues, my incense hall will be closed." ”

When Bill saw that Tony had found him, he knew that he couldn't drag it on, stood up, looked at Tony, raised his hand and slapped Tony, and said, "I still treat you as a friend, you actually do things like prostitutes, if you are not Young Master Lin Xia's person, I will immediately arrest you to the security station." ”

Tony Meng, it was obviously not like this just now, when I was going to send someone to your house, you didn't object, why did it change at this time.

Bill respectfully said to Lin Xia: "Young Master Lin Xia, I have great admiration for your approach, and I will ask you to take care of it in the future." ”

Lin Xia didn't figure out Bill's situation, you are a sheriff, let me take care of you, just said, "You're polite." ”

Bill came here to escort Lin Xia, and seeing that there was nothing to do with himself here, he said, "Young Master Lin Xia, the little one will leave first." ”

Lin Xia nodded, Bill gave himself a face, and he couldn't go too far, and arranged for a Hongxing brother to send Bill.

Hearing Bill call himself a subordinate official, Tony knew that he was finished, and if he didn't do what Lin Xia asked, I'm afraid the Condensing Incense Pavilion would have to close tomorrow.

Lin Xia continued: "In the future, guests should try to strictly check their age, and minors under the age of sixteen are prohibited from entering brothels and casinos. ”

Xavier listened to Lin Xia's instructions, and stopped talking a little, but he still shook his head and didn't speak.

Tony has now recognized it, and what else can he do if he thought that his big backer still claims to be a subordinate official in front of Lin Xia.

"Tony, I know you've been doing a good business lately and making a lot of money. Lin Xia continued with a calm face: "I can make you make money, of course I can let you close the door immediately." Hongxing started from you, I don't embarrass you this time, I'm a very humane person, according to the rules I said, I will make money for you, but if you go against me, don't blame me for being polite. ”

Tony looked reluctant, but still said, "I see." ”

Lin Xia said: "Mandy, I took it away." ”

Mandy heard that Lin Xia was going to take her away, and looked at Lin Xia gratefully.

Lin Xia got up and walked out of the Incense Pavilion with Troy and Xavier and his party and returned to the headquarters. Arrange for Mandy to do some cleaning, washing. Looking at Mandy's appearance, Lin Xia said in his heart: "It's a pity that such a beautiful stunner just came to do the cleaning work." ”

There were still sixty people in the square of the headquarters who were cultivating according to Sean's cultivation method, and everyone was full of enthusiasm, and they felt that being able to cultivate martial arts in Hongxing might be a turning point in their lives.

During this time, Sean didn't come very much, most of them were third-level martial artists Bog and his brothers to cultivate. After all, he still has to go to the academy with Lin Xia to take classes. And Lin Xia decided to start from today and not go to the academy to attend classes, anyway, he has already had a showdown with Antonio, so it doesn't matter if he goes or not.

Lin Xia asked Troy, "Have the brothers cultivated their fighting spirit?"

"I haven't had a brother who has been able to cultivate his fighting spirit yet. Troy blushed and said, "Including me." ”

Lin Xia also knew that Dou Qi was not so easy to cultivate, Sean's freak was considered to have good qualifications, and it took half a year to cultivate Dou Qi, which had something to do with Sean's young age, if Sean was allowed to cultivate from scratch now, it was estimated that he could cultivate Dou Qi in two months.

"Brothers' cultivation must be paid attention to, the most important thing is you, you must cultivate your fighting spirit as soon as possible, if someone else does it first, it will be difficult for you, the boss, to do it. Lin Xia said to Troy.

Troy blushed and nodded, secretly deciding that he would hurry up his cultivation in the future, and strive to cultivate his fighting spirit as soon as possible, the most important thing was not to let Lin Xia be disappointed in himself.

Lin Xia asked Xavier again, "How are you cultivating?"

Xavier said: "I don't have any talent for cultivation, and my progress is very small. ”

Lin Xia also knew that Xavier was not very interested in cultivation, but he still encouraged: "Don't be afraid of hard work, cultivating Dou Qi is good for your old wounds." ”
