Yang Shen sighed, took the confession and read it carefully, and after reading a few words, he said in horror: "There is such a thing, these pirates really deserve to be killed!" ”

After reading it, Yang Shen became suspicious: "Lord Duan, where are those pirates?" How were these confessions obtained? ”

Duan Fei didn't need to ask to know what this kid suspected, the timing of the appearance of this group of pirates was too coincidental, and they had been hiding for many years and doing a lot of evil, but there was no rumor at all, and another person would be suspicious.

It's one thing to understand, but Duan Fei can't help but make a gesture, he said abruptly: "Lord Yang doesn't believe it, although he has been retried, Duan Mou has been busy for a day, dizzy, and he will leave first!" ”

"Master Duan...... Lord Duan, please stay......" Yang Shen shouted a few times, but Duan Fei didn't go back angrily, Guan Xiaohan chuckled, and gave Yang Shen a seductive look with apricot eyes, and followed, Hua Ming fell last, and he said to Yang Shen: "Lord Yang, these pirates were personally captured by Lord Duan after Lord Duan got the news, and as for the confession, I personally forced it to ask, and there is no falsehood." ”

Yang Shen smiled bitterly: "I just asked casually, Lord Duan's anger came too quickly, right?" ”

Hua Ming smiled and said, "According to what I have observed during this time, if Lord Duan has any abnormal behavior, there must be a deep meaning behind it, and Lord Yang does not need to worry. ”

Yang Shen said with a smile: "Thank you General Hua for waking up, Lord Duan's anger is only afraid that it was sent to the young lady surnamed Guan, and I hit the jackpot because of it." ”

Hua Ming nodded, said goodbye, Duan Fei rode to the street, and when he passed a crossroads, Duan Fei's heart moved, and he suddenly turned his horse and galloped towards Happy Street.

Happy Street was not originally called Happy Street, but when every shop on this street was renamed Happy So-and-so, this street became a Happy Street in everyone's mouth.

Happy Street was originally the most prosperous street in Suzhou, but with Wang Shiyong's house being raided, his shops were all seized, and the whole street became much lighter, and pedestrians were also hurrying by, and no one stopped more.

Duan Fei rode a horse to the front of the Happy Restaurant, the former prosperous and lively Happy House was sealed with a seal, and like the entire Happy Street, the autumn wind was miserable and miserable......

Duan Fei looked left and right and said, "This street is the most prosperous place in Suzhou, how did it become like this?" If it drags on any longer, it will affect the tax revenue, Hua Ming, the order will go down, all the seized shops on Happy Street will be reopened immediately, temporarily supervised by the official, the accounts will be sent to the official once a day, and then a notice will be posted, tomorrow after beheading Wang Shiyong, they will auction Wang Shiyong and other seized properties on the Happy Building, and the bidders who sign up for the auction need to pay a deposit of 1,000 taels of silver, and the deposit is non-refundable, so as to avoid boring guys from making trouble, well, so be it, the official is starting to miss the dishes of the Happy Building, Shi Bin, Go and break the seal, Hong Bang, Jiang Jun, you go and find those account rooms, cooks, and juniors, and Happy Street is going to reopen to make money! ”

Duan Fei's order can be said to be a great joy, remove the seal, Duan Fei walked up to the top floor of the fourth floor of the Happy Building, leaned on the window edge and looked down, only to see that after the news spread, countless people poured into the Happy Street, and in less than half an hour, the entire Happy Street returned to its former prosperity, and the account room of the Happy Building rushed to meet Lord Qincha, looking grateful, Duan Fei waved his hand indifferently: "Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and give me a whole table of good dishes." At tomorrow's auction, I will ask the buyer not to fire the employee without a valid reason for at least three months, so rest assured. ”

Although Duan Fei's words were novel, everyone understood them, and the account room went happily, and soon the wine and food were served, and a table full of them was placed, Duan Fei greeted: "You don't have to be polite, let's sit down and eat." ”

Everyone was polite, and they were all invited by Duan Fei to sit down, Duan Fei raised his glass and said: "Everyone have a drink, we will be a family in the future, no matter where you come from, since you are all doing things for me by my side now, you must work together to do a good job of what I have explained, who plays half-heartedly and say goodbye to me, you're welcome!" If you drink this glass of wine, you agree, and if you refuse to drink it, please get out of here! ”

Hua Ming and Guan Xiaohan glanced at each other, Duan Fei's words were obviously aimed at Guan Xiaohan, Hua Ming smiled slightly, raised his glass to Guan Xiaohan, and then looked at Duan Fei and said, "Lord Duan, I will do this glass of wine first as a respect!" ”

Everyone raised their glasses, their eyes looked at Guan Xiaohan, Guan Xiaohan's eyes flowed, and he smiled and said: "Gonggong Zhang sent me here to assist the adults, so naturally I will do my best to help the adults do everything, but ......"

Guan Xiaohan glanced at Hua Ming and said: "Father-in-law Zhang is very concerned about the movements of adults, I will inevitably report every three days, I naturally won't report those small things to waste my father-in-law's time, big things...... Adults don't mind, right? ”

Duan Fei glanced at Hua Ming and said with a smile: "I naturally won't mind this, come, cheers everyone, we will be a family from now on, regardless of each other, don't fight each other anymore, this official is also a headache when he is caught in the middle." ”

Guan Xiaohan and Hua Ming looked at each other and smiled, glanced at Su Rong again, and drank the wine in one gulp with everyone, and two blushes soon swelled on their faces.

After putting down the cup, the atmosphere in the banquet became lively, at least on the surface, everyone's relationship has entered a layer, Guan Xiaohan praised: "The property that was seized in public auction has not been heard of since ancient times, this is really clever, but if it is not for the courage of adults, I am afraid that I will not dare to make it immediately." ”

Duan Fei smiled: "It's nothing, as long as it is beneficial to Daming, I will not hesitate to do it, even if it will violate tradition or even the law, it is better to auction in public than to grant relatives in private, right?" It also puts an end to bribery, wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone, hehe...... The adults in the court are afraid that they will be very unaccustomed to it, but the current emperor will not be surprised. ”

Guan Xiaohan smiled and said: "I heard that there is a housekeeper named Huang Suliang next to the adult, who is very good at business, I wonder if he will participate in the auction tomorrow?" Of course, I won't bother Father-in-law Zhang for such trivial things. ”

Duan Fei laughed out loud and said: "Public auction, if Huang Suliang's price is the best, this official naturally can't abolish his private interests because of his relationship with me, because he won't sell it to him, who pays for it is not the same for nothing?" Huang Suliang does his business, the official has never shown favoritism to him, it is his ability to make money, and he can pay more taxes to the treasury, which is also a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, why not care? Whether it's a black cat or a white cat, as long as you catch a mouse, you're a good cat! ”

Guan Xiaohan praised: "The lord is really wise, any sentence is full of philosophy, which makes people think deeply, if the officials in the world can think like adults, our Ming will be prosperous, and a hundred generations will be prosperous." ”

Duan Fei said with a smile: "Hehe, no matter how philosophical the official is, he doesn't care about the girl...... Oh no, it's not as good as Xiao Han's flattery, haha...... Everyone drinks and eats food, and it doesn't taste good when it's cold......"

The sky is gradually getting dark, the happy street is very noisy, and it has returned to its former prosperity, Su Rong put down her chopsticks without eating much, she is still mainly vegetarian, and the large piece of braised pork that Duan Fei helped her throw on the edge of the table without moving at all.

After putting down the chopsticks, Su Rong turned her head to look out, only to see the red flags not far from the street, under the reflection of two large lanterns, the three big characters of the Happy Building fluttered in the wind, and the difference with the Happy Restaurant was that it was a brothel under the Happy Building.

Seeing the booming business under the two big lanterns, Su Rong couldn't help but turn around and said, "Childe, there are many hard-working women in the brothel of Happy Building, why don't you take the opportunity to rescue them?" If the brothel were bought by someone else tomorrow, wouldn't it make no difference to them? ”

Duan Fei said with a smile: "Rong'er, your heart is soft-hearted, naturally you can't see others suffering, but you don't know that they are not as pitiful as you think, I told you that I solved a case of abduction and trafficking of girls in Yangzhou, seized a 'stable' that raised thin horses, and rescued many girls, do you know what their final situation was?" ”

Su Rong shook her head and turned her head to look out, she had probably guessed some, Duan Fei smiled bitterly: "Most of those rescued girls continue to do business without capital, or send them to other stables, expecting to be taken by a good patron and bought home to be concubines to spend their lives......"

Duan Fei drank half a glass of residual wine, and said: "They have nothing to do, they have long been accustomed to that kind of life, if they insist on changing, it will bring them more harm, this is a world where men are respected, how many girls like you can be independent and strive for their own happy life?" ”

Su Rong sighed lightly, and Duan Fei smiled: "Of course, I will give them a chance during the auction tomorrow, and those who are forced to become prostitutes and leave voluntarily will ask the new boss to return their deeds of sale and let them leave on their own." ”

Su Rong stood up and bowed to Duan Feiyingying, and said, "Thank you for your leniency, I thank you for them, my lord, I am a little tired from drinking, please allow me to leave the table first......"

Duan Fei took the opportunity to say: "I've eaten almost enough, I'll send you back, you guys eat slowly, you're welcome, I'll accompany Rong'er for a walk to relieve alcohol, no one can hurt me in Suzhou City, you don't have to follow." ”

Duan Fei had already said it so clearly, none of the people present were idiots, Su Rong's pretty face was hot, and she walked out quickly as if she was running away, Duan Fei laughed three times, and proudly took off his official robe and hat, and the green shirt inside was straightforward, and he was actually prepared, and in a blink of an eye, he changed from Lord Qincha to an ordinary person.

Duan Fei ran out of the hotel, Su Rong was standing on the side of the street waiting for him, and when he saw him coming out, he slowly walked forward, neither of them spoke, wandering on the street, occasionally glancing at each other, and there was a feeling of closeness that had not been seen for a long time.
