Chapter 107: The dungeon of Dongzhen's mansion
As the latter, Su Zedong did enter the court as a businessman, and could provide enough military salaries and materials, but he had not yet gained a firm foothold in the court, so he wanted to install his cronies in? This heart is too big. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
However, Su Zedong, as a businessman who can do big business, is not fully prepared in it!
Zhang Shide and Zhang Shixin couldn't help but sigh because Su Zedong's city government was too deep, and even generals like Lu Zhen and Pan Yuande could come forward to speak for him!
And the people under Zhang Shide and Zhang Shixin were not only shocked, but also unhappy, because their top bosses meant reasonable exploitation, and their understanding was that they didn't care about the life and death of those fart people and chaotic people, they only needed to be loyal to King Cheng, and it didn't matter how much they won.
So they chose to pay more taxes, and although the two large parts of the silver they received did not go into their pockets, the way to open up from them was wide.
As long as these people, who are the powerful people in the court, choose to be greedy and secretly increase taxes, those officials who are subordinates will choose to exploit more heavily than them in addition to performing their duties, and after obtaining benefits from the people's land, they will be handed over to the powerful people in the court.
In the chain of this vicious circle, it is the magnates who benefit in the end, and although the officials under them can be powerful, they are not necessarily rich and noble, but they are protected by the magnates, live a worry-free life, and think that they can be superior to others!
And the reason why they rejected Su Zedong was because they thought that this person was in the same class as themselves, but they were not greedy, but they chose to be with those fart people and chaotic people, and actually helped them talk and work for their welfare!
So they think that Su Zedong is either a hypocrite who is as evil as good, or a careerist who wants to do something with them!
They can't see others as they are, they don't have to be corrupt, they don't have to be corrupt, they don't have to fall.
So they don't buy Su Zedong's account, even if he is a superior, they refuse to listen to his instructions, even if they are dismissed and dismissed because of this, and see that their position is replaced by others, they don't disdain, don't admit their mistakes, and choose to be paralyzed and unkind to themselves!
However, he Su Zedong has the protection of Zhang Shicheng, that is, he can be reused by the people who are the king of Cheng, and now he can get the support of generals like Lu Zhen and Pan Yuanming, so in the eyes of those mercenary people, it is really hateful and hateful!
ā¦ā¦
Since it was Lu Zhen who spoke in person, Zhang Shicheng had no reason to refuse, he asked Lu Zhen to come to him, and after whispering a few words, he announced to everyone that the Dongzhen Mansion would join the army to form a cavalry battalion, and it was decided that there was no need to discuss it again.
After this result came down, even Su Zedong didn't expect it to be so smooth, although he knew that Zhang Shicheng would always agree to the general trend, but at least he would make some compromises, so that Su Zedong could make a promise or suffer a little.
But Zhang Shicheng didn't do this, and this is mainly due to Lu Zhen and Pan Yuanming, but behind every good thing and bad thing, there is always a purpose.
Su Zedong didn't believe that these two people were fairy tales for the public good, but if they intended to win them over, it would not be a good thing for him, the ghost soldiers, and Dongzhen Company to develop in the future.
As for the words that Zhang Shicheng whispered in Lu Zhen's ear, Su Zedong also guessed that Zhang Shicheng wanted his right-hand man to make his family in the house suffer a little, so as to comfort the other powerful people in the court.
This is indeed a good expedient measure, and it is the road of the mean!
Su Zedong also shook his head helplessly, even though he knew that the generals and ghost soldiers in his house might be at a loss, but he couldn't do anything, because this was needed by the general trend, and all plans and policies were the result of compromises from many parties.
Although Su Zedong was able to make Zhang Shicheng, Lu Zhen compromise with Zhou Yan and Tan Zhen and others in the officialdom, although he was able to defeat Zhou Yan, Tan Zhen and others in the court, but in real life, the bright cat never knew what dirty and dirty things the mice living in the dark had done.
After the dispersal of the dynasty, Su Zedong, who returned to Dongzhen's mansion, did not get rest; He was called to the early court early in the morning, earlier than the Mongols, just to go to the court to pretend, which was not what he wanted, and what he cared more about was to catch those Wu family members last night.
ā¦ā¦
The interrogators were naturally Liu Zhenming and Cheng Zeheng, who were known for their cruelty.
Liu Zhenming is now idle, and after the firearms and artillery are manufactured, they have also been debugged, and the rest of the installation and further debugging and other finishing work will be handed over to his apprentices of the "Little Ghost Troop", and Zhang Dexing is responsible for supervising and studying on the side.
Cheng Zeheng's workSince the ghost soldiers were divided into twenty squads for management, he has been working in the private dungeon of Dongzhen Mansion.
But Cheng Zeheng's work has not been idle because of this, and he uses violence to deal with all kinds of dignitaries and nobles every day, as long as he is disobedient or has doubts about his ability, he will not give their master the face to beat and scold at all, and even kill them like Xiang Bingkun!
The captured Wu Mansion family members were tossed by these two people, naturally there was no good fruit to eat, on the other hand, the girls who were captured, all screaming in the prison like flowers, but no one was hurt.
Su Zedong said that he should respect these suffering girls, their current identity is not the girls of Yihong Mansion or Drunken Immortal Mansion or Manchun Building, but the guests of his Su Zedong Su Hall Master, they are innocent and pitiful......
Of course, Su Zedong knew that these men under his hands were not good at stubble, and not everyone might listen to their own words, and let the temptation be enchanting in front of them, but these girls had no safe place to go except for their own dungeons.
Before the matter was investigated, they were witnesses or suspects involved in the case, so Su Zedong specially arranged for Liu Zhenming, a later generation, to investigate the matter clearly according to the plot of interrogating the prisoner in the Hong Kong police TV series or movie.
At the same time, Su Zedong also asked Xiao Qier to draw a few middle-aged aunts who know martial arts and look average from the "Women's Rights Protection" organization.
Giving them enough food and letting them go to the dungeon is clearly to take care of the food, drink, and sleep of the twenty-odd girls, but in fact it is necessary to protect their safety and subtlety.
As for letting Cheng Zeheng cooperate with him, of course, he wants to beat those disobedient dogs, and the dogs who want to bite back when they are dying are the most terrible.
He is not as cute as Las Vegas or shepherd dogs, they eat too much poop except for the owner, everyone else is inferior, in their eyes the master is the king of heaven, everyone else is inferior, they have no humanity.
Su Zedong asked Cheng Zeheng to let them eat the pain of eating skin and flesh, it should all be to eliminate harm for the people and relieve the anger in their hearts, otherwise these dogs will eat too much as monsters, and they will forget that they are just a dog.
This blow will knock them all back to their original shape, that is, they must have fewer arms and lame legs, it depends on how they still harm one party!
ā¦ā¦
"How's it going, brother, what's the matter? I didn't get any decent cigarettes for you at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, so I was tired. ā
As soon as Su Zedong walked into the dungeon, he patted Liu Zhenming's shoulder and whispered in his ear.
Liu Zhenming said "hehe" twice and said: "Hey, it's good if there is no tobacco, the soul has the idea of wanting to quit smoking before I come here, and the backward living conditions here just create various opportunities to quit this bad habit." ā
Su Zedong said with a smile: "Don't worry, tobacco was introduced into China, about the end of the 16th century, during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, the earliest transliteration was called "Danbaku", and it was not until the end of the Ming Dynasty that the name tobacco was changed. ā
"Since we are the next generation, we don't have to wait so long, and when this vote is finished, I will send someone to the Philippines to get some tobacco, not much, enough for you and me to smoke."
Liu Zhenming pressed his acupoint, squeezed out some wrinkles on his tired face, smiled, and said: "Doing things in this kind of place, in addition to learning to fight wits and courage with criminals, you must also learn to hide your true emotions, which is very tiring." They're not stupid. ā
"But it's a loss, you got Cheng Zeheng for me, and let him do the dirtiest and most tiring work, so I only have to face those people who have a little culture and common sense, even if they all pretend to be innocent and just want to avoid the pain of flesh and skin, but under high pressure, they still get it out."
Su Zedong smiled, and saw that inside the gloomy dungeon, the improvised interrogation room was brightly lit, and the brightness was just dazzling, and it was absolutely impossible for people to feel sleepy!
Looking at the various tools for tossing people on the table in the interrogation room, just the most common chili water, Su Zedong sweated for the criminals who were all interrogated.
"How about it, want to try it?"
Liu Zhenming saw that Su Zedong did not take his words, but stared at the tools on the table in the interrogation room, goosebumps rose, so he said with a smile.
Su Zedong shook his head and said, "Everyone is wrong and has committed crimes, no one is absolutely innocent, and even the existence of human beings is the original sin." If it is just a crime committed by one person, and a group of people suffer, the person who committed the crime will be hated and punished by a group of people. ā
If it were in normal times, Liu Zhenming would have shown a disdainful expression or laughed softly when he saw Su Zedong babbling about these words that no normal person could understand, but now that he was in a dungeon, the atmosphere around him was not something that could make people laugh!
Combined with the criminals he faced, Liu Zhenming seems to be able to understand the meaning behind Su Zedong's words, but everyone's understanding and understanding are different, and there will be a sense of identity is only in a small corner of one thing, and when the matter is magnified, the controversy will come out.
However, now is not the time to amplify the controversy, and Liu Zhenming has no time to talk about philosophy and life with Su Zedong, arguing about those truths that have nothing to do with reality, so he only shrugged his shoulders and said: "Since these things can't be avoided, then they can only be avoided from happening again." ā
After speaking, Liu Zhenming took Su Zedong to another interrogation room, where a middle-aged man with a scar was sitting, looking at his face covered in blood and his hair was messy, if he hadn't seen his body still shaking regularly with wheezing, everyone who saw him would have thought he was dead.
"This person is the general manager of Wu Mansion, who is called Old Man Xu by the ruffians, Shinong and industrialists on the street on weekdays, and even in Wu Mansion, he is very majestic, but yesterday he contradicted Brother Cheng a few words, and now one arm is gone."
After looking at his incomplete skin, Liu Zhenming continued: "These are all his own faults, no one else is to blame, we are not saints, our hearts are not so wide, even if he is killed, there is indeed no one who will pity him." ā
Su Zedong didn't intend to investigate why they treated a person with a high position in the Wu Mansion like this, because he, like Liu Zhenming and Cheng Zeheng, was particularly unaccustomed to showing off his might in front of ordinary people and nodding his head in front of his master.
But people have already been beaten like this, what else can they ask?
