22. The money is collected, and the people are caught

In recent days, Chengping Rijiu Yuanjiang City has suddenly become noisy.

On the streets, from time to time, there are brocade guards passing by, and even shops are seized.

Many officials and masters were brutally dragged out by the brocade guards at home, and some people didn't even have time to wear their clothes.

The door of the Zhou family was stepped on by the Jinyi guard three times a day.

The Zhou family's gambling houses, green buildings, and restaurants have ruffians and hooligans who come to make trouble every day, and the yamen is always late to catch them.

The city is already a scene of mountain rain coming!

The various forces in the city have become extraordinarily quiet in recent days.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is an operation against the Zhou family.

Whether it is the Zhou family or Jinyiwei, they are all existences they can't afford to provoke.

And the county magistrate, when he heard that he was infected with the wind and cold, had already gone to Fucheng to find a famous doctor, but he still left overnight, and when he left, he only brought a concubine.

……

Zhou family.

Inside the ancestral shrine.

Zhou Yuan's face was gloomy and he said: "Patriarch, three more shops have been seized today, and there is even a fight in the two casinos. ”

The Buddha beads in Zhou Shijin's hand had already been shattered, and his elegant face was extremely gloomy.

"This Lin Mang is simply too deceitful!"

"I haven't bothered him yet, he came to the door first!"

Zhou Yuan said weakly: "Patriarch, what should I do now?" ”

"A few people in the clan in the county government have also been arrested and put in Jinyiwei prison, for fear that they will say something."

"Bang!" Zhou Shijin slapped the teacup on the table very much, and said coldly: "Tell Tao Ning to let him bring people out, if he can't bring them out......"

"Then shut them up forever!"

"There is no credibility in what a dead man says!"

Zhou Yuan's heart was cold, and his face hesitated.

Zhou Shijin said coldly: "This revenge will be counted on that Lin Mang!" ”

Zhou Yuan didn't dare to speak again.

In the Zhou family, Zhou Shijin, the patriarch, is the biggest.

Zhou Shijin took a deep breath and said coldly: "Go to the account room to pay three thousand taels and give it to that Lin Mang!" ”

Zhou Yuan looked puzzled.

Zhou Shijin said coldly: "If you want to make people crazy first, you must first make people swell, there is no need to fight him hard for the time being, first give him a soft face and lower his vigilance." ”

"I'll get this money back on him!"

"In addition......" A trace of coldness flashed in Zhou Shijin's eyes, and he said indifferently: "Tell Tao Ning that there is something to discuss tonight!" ”

……

Jinyi Guard Prison.

"Meet your lord!" The brocade guards on both sides saluted one after another.

Lin Mang bowed his head slightly and stepped into the depths of the prison.

On the stake, an old man with a sloppy face was tied.

This person is a person from the fourth room of the Zhou family, and he is a farmer, who is responsible for supervising the grain chief and collecting taxes and grains.

seems to be a petty official, but his authority is not small.

Wang Dasheng hurriedly moved a chair, Lin Mang sat down, looked at the old man, and said lightly: "Say, you don't have to be lucky, if you enter this prison, no one can get out except for the corpse." ”

Zhou Wenhai was full of anger: "Dog official, you use your power for personal gain, and disregard people's lives, I will sue you!" ”

Lin Mang shook his head and whispered a few words in Wang Dasheng's ear.

Wang Dasheng left quickly, and after a while, he returned with a few rats and an iron basin in his hand.

Lin Mang faintly: "Pick up his clothes!" ”

Zhou Wenhai looked startled, and said loudly: "Lin Mang, what do you want to do!" Do you want to abuse lynching? ”

Lin Mang looked at him and said calmly: "Lord Zhou, I'll give you another chance, and I'll explain everything that should be explained." ”

"Humph!" Although Zhou Wenhai was frightened in his heart, he still said in a stiff manner: "I don't know anything. ”

Lin Mang waved his hand casually.

A brocade guard came to Zhou Wenhai with a mouse, then put it on his stomach and buckled it with an iron basin.

Zhou Wenhai's expression became more and more frightened.

"You ...... What do you want to do? ”

For some reason, he vaguely felt that something was wrong.

Wang Dasheng took a torch and slowly approached it to the iron basin, and the flames were scorching.

Zhou Wenhai's eyes widened violently, and he felt a piercing pain in his abdomen.

"Ahh

Zhou Wenhai's face changed completely, and he said in a panic: "Say, I say, I say everything." ”

"Stop, stop!"

The pain was so severe that he was a little trembling when he spoke.

Lin Mang raised his hand and said lightly: "Wouldn't it be good to do this earlier?" ”

"Tell me, what you committed, and what the rest of the Zhou family do."

Zhou Wenhai's pupils shrank, and a trace of hesitation appeared on his face.

For the children of these families, they have been taught since childhood that the family is the sky.

He understands what it means once he says it.

At this moment, a person hurriedly walked outside the prison.

Tao Ning's face was full of anger and shouted: "Lin Mang, stop!" Do you know what you're doing? ”

When Zhou Wenhai saw Tao Ning, a hint of hope appeared in his eyes.

Lin Mang tilted his head slightly and arched his hand casually: "I've seen Tao Zongqi." ”

"Of course I know, I suspect that this person has something to do with the weekend and Dong Wenshan's case, is there anything wrong?"

Tao Ning's eyes widened!

It's okay not to mention it, but the anger in his heart can hardly be suppressed when he mentions it.

Dong Wenshan was his confidant, but he died in the prison less than a day after he was imprisoned.

What do you say about committing suicide for fear of sin, it is clear that Lin Mang killed him!

"Lin Mang!"

Tao Ning's voice was a little colder, and he said coldly: "Release people!" ”

"Huh!"

Lin Mang got up and said coldly: "Forgive me, Lord Baihu ordered me to be in charge of Dong Wenshan's case, and if Tao Zongqi wants me to release people, please give me an order from Lord Baihu." ”

Tao Ning's face sank, and he said coldly: "Lin Mang, do you have to go against me?" ”

"Don't dare!" Lin Mang said lightly: "Xia Guan has never had this idea. ”

Tao Ning glanced at Lin Mang coldly, and turned around to leave directly.

The moment he turned around, a trace of cold killing intent appeared on his face.

Lin Mang sat down again and said calmly, "Go on." ”

Zhou Wenhai swallowed his saliva quietly, and a burst of fear welled up in his heart.

Immediately, there was a hint of depression on his face, and he told the story 1510.

After a cup of tea, Zhou Wenhai signed and finished the drawing.

Lin Mang took the charge and sneered: "I didn't expect you, a small agricultural official, to be so greedy for ink. ”

It can be seen that the Zhou family has been entrenched here over the years, and how many people have been squeezed.

At this moment, Wang Dasheng said in a low voice: "My lord, the Zhou family just sent someone and sent three thousand taels, saying that they were picked up, and please handle it on your behalf." ”

"In addition, their people said that they had offended a lot before, and asked the adults to raise their noble hands."

"Oh?" Lin Mang was slightly surprised.

When did the Zhou family become so kind?

However, the silver ticket delivered to the door will not be accepted in vain.

He wants to break through the True Qi Realm and needs a lot of energy points, and he can accumulate a little bit is a little bit, not to mention that the stronger the accumulation of the Innate Realm, the longer he can go in the future.

Wang Dasheng hesitated: "My lord, do you want to continue?" ”

"Why not?" Lin Mang said lightly: "Isn't it our duty to punish these corrupt officials and corrupt officials?" ”

The Zhou family and the Wolf Gang are different.

The Wild Wolf Gang is just a gang of ruffians and hooligans, but the Zhou family is a wealthy family that has been around for nearly a hundred years, and its roots are deep, do you really think it will be softened?

He has offended the Zhou family to this extent, and this contradiction cannot be resolved in a few words.

Drama...... It's just getting started!
