Chapter 116: You Keep It and Buy a Coffin
"This ...... How is this possible? The boss of Huamanlou was dumbfounded, the whole person was speechless in surprise, he couldn't believe it, the ugly monster on the door panel was actually the Oiran girl in his Huamanlou.
He didn't have time to get Zhou Ming's consent, so he immediately stood up, walked to the door panel, and carefully observed Hua Mianlang, and found that this extremely ugly person was not only a man, but also fat and strong, even if he was blind, just by his sense of touch, it was impossible to think that this person was a woman.
He turned his head and looked at Zhou Ming and Xia Dezhang in a panic, shaking his head desperately, and said excitedly: "What is the purpose of you two?" To be able to tell such a big lie, my Oiran girl is unparalleled in beauty, how can she be this ugly monster? ”
Xia Dezhang had already been in the limelight just now, and he felt very enjoyable, so he wanted to reveal all the mysteries about Hua Mianlang before Zhou Ming.
With a snap, Zhou Zhou Ming slapped Xia Dezhang on the shoulder with a palm and pushed him aside.
Because the power of Zhou Ming's palm was too great, Xia Dezhang was unprepared, and after receiving this palm, he flew out with his whole body, if he hadn't held on to a chair, he almost had a dog eat and lay on the ground.
was suddenly attacked, Xia Dezhang didn't know who shot it at the first time, and after stabilizing his figure, he quickly turned around and wanted to find the real murderer: "Who hit me!" ”
"It's me." Zhou Zhou Ming was expressionless, and said coldly, "You honestly stay on the side, don't talk too much." ”
Xia Dezhang was originally angry, relying on Zhou Ming to support him, he wanted to clean up the murderer who attacked him, what he didn't expect was that the murderer was actually Zhou Zhou Ming, after discovering this cruel fact, he was intimidated for the first time, not only did he not say a word, but he obediently retreated to the corner and gave the whole stage to Zhou Ming.
Deng Tong and the other officials had long been dissatisfied with Xia Dezhang's favor in front of Zhou Ming, and when they saw him being cleaned up by Zhou Ming, everyone secretly laughed in their hearts, thinking that he deserved it.
After sending Xia Dezhang away, Zhou Ming looked at the boss of Hua Manlou and smiled slightly: "This boss, I don't know if you have heard of the disguise technique?" ”
After the boss of Huamanlou heard this question, the whole person was like five thunderbolts, and he understood that the reason why Zhou Ming asked like this must be for a purpose.
He turned his head and looked at the ugly-looking Huamian Lang, thinking to himself that this ugly and stinky man, even if he knew how to disguise, it would be impossible for him to turn himself into a beautiful woman, right? Unless he replaces his face, that's still possible.
He stabilized his mind, looked back at Zhou Ming, and said without humility or arrogance: "I've heard, Lord Zhou, you don't want to tell me that this ugly man is an Oiran girl who used disguise techniques, right?" ”
Zhou Ming smiled slightly: "Since you have heard of the disguise technique, you must also be a person who has seen the world."
Then I'll tell you directly, this flower face man didn't pretend to be your flowery Oiran, he was the Oiran girl herself. ”
Hearing this, the boss of Hua Manlou was shocked, he took a few steps back, looked at Hua Mianlang blankly, and had infinite fear in his heart.
Because if what Zhou Zhou Ming said was true, then the matter would be a big problem, after all, the Oiran girl was bought back by him personally, if he was really a spy in the northern country, he would naturally be inseparable from this northern spy case, even if he used the background relationship behind him, he would not escape death in the end.
And this is not the most terrible, the most terrible thing is that once the court investigates this case to the end, it is likely to uproot the background forces behind him, and at that time, not only will his life be guaranteed, but even his relatives and children will not be let go.
Because no matter how great the responsibility for the crime he committed, the punishment of the imperial court is limited, and it must be done in accordance with the laws of the Great Chu State, and the crime committed by one person, as long as it is not the most evil, must be borne by him alone, and he will definitely not implicate his family.
Compared with the imperial court, the background forces behind him are much more terrifying, he himself is a flag placed in the foreground by this force, and the reason why he is allowed to run Huamanlou is to let him make money for the forces behind him, and at the same time let him take the opportunity to make friends with the dignitaries and dignitaries in the court, so as to pave the way for the master behind him to expand his power.
He is insignificant to the master behind him, if he gets into trouble, the master behind him will definitely cut him down as soon as possible for his own safety, so as to prevent future troubles.
After realizing the seriousness of the matter, the boss of Huamanlou panicked, and hurriedly thought of a way in his heart, wanting to eliminate the danger invisibly before the master behind him knew about it, and only in this way could he avoid a catastrophe.
The first way he thought of was not to admit it, after all, the ugly man on the door panel didn't look like an Oiran girl, as long as Zhou Ming couldn't show evidence, he would be safe.
"Lord Zhou, if you want to add sin, there is no word!" The boss of Huamanlou cheered up, and in order to survive himself, he planned to resist to the end, "Since you are determined to make trouble with us Huamanlou, we, as a grass people, are of course helpless, so we can only let it be slaughtered."
But even if you let us die, you must let us die willingly! Just by your words, it would be too arbitrary to say that this Northern spy is our Oiran girl.
If you don't have evidence to prove this fact, I will not be able to admit this crime even if I have fought for my life and sued the emperor in front of the emperor. ”
The dignitaries and dignitaries standing at the back of the team naturally knew that Zhou Ming's methods were very powerful, and when they saw that the boss of Hua Manlou didn't know whether he was alive or dead, he dared to openly provoke Zhou Ming in front of everyone, and they shook their heads and sighed at the same time, they all felt that this boss was too young and had not yet understood the sinister of the world.
They all looked for a good position, intending to wait a while to watch a good show.
Xia Dezhang was slapped by Zhou Ming just now, and his body was still in pain at this time, although he felt that what the boss of Hua Manlou said was too much, but he had already suffered a loss just now, and without Zhou Ming's orders, he really didn't dare to act rashly.
Deng Tong and the other officials all have responsibilities, although they really want to rush over to clean up this boss, but they are afraid of missing Zhou Ming's matter, so they don't act rashly.
"Guts!" Zhou Zhou Ming looked at the boss of Hua Manlou with an appreciative face, and at the same time stretched out his thumb and praised, "It really impresses me, since that's the case, I won't talk nonsense with you, Hua Mianlang, don't be stunned, say a few words to your boss." ”
Except for the boss of Huamanlou and his subordinates, everyone present laughed out loud after hearing Zhou Ming say this.
Because everyone knows that Zhou Ming is asking Hua Mianlang to speak in the voice of Oiran, as long as this trick is used, even if the boss of Hua Manlou has a good brain and a sharp mouth, he will be speechless in an instant.
Hua Mian Lang leaned on the door panel, adjusted his voice, and then said in the voice of the Oiran girl: "Boss, why are you so ruthless? Seeing the slave family lying here, he didn't say that he was distressed.
And this Lord Zhou is the sweetheart of the slave family, why are you so fierce to others? ”
The boss of the Huamanlou was stunned in place for an instant, his eyes widened, and he couldn't say a word, he couldn't believe that there was such a strange thing in this world.
That person was obviously an ugly man, and he actually spoke with one mouth, and it was the voice of an Oiran girl.
Some people who were obsessed with the Oiran girl before, but now they saw their dreams shattered, and they collapsed all of a sudden, kneeling on the ground and crying bitterly, just like their dead parents.
Zhou Zhou Ming looked at the painful expressions of those people, and thought to himself, it seems that some tricks don't need to be new, as long as they work.
He walked up to the boss of Huamanlou and said with a smile: "This boss, did you hear the voice just now?" I believe that the voice of the Oiran girl is all too familiar to you.
Of course, if you still don't believe he's an Oiran girl, I have another way to prove to you, and the big deal is to let him use a disguise. ”
"Lord Zhou, no need, I can hear the voice just now clearly, it is indeed the voice of the Oiran girl." The boss of Hua Manlou said in despair, "The villain dared to offend Lord Zhou just now, please forgive me." ”
Zhou Zhou Ming suddenly changed his face, and said angrily: "In this case, come here, tie up this person for me, and bring all the people who are full of flowers to the yamen of the general mansion and torture them." ”
"Yes." Xia Dezhang agreed, and hurriedly commanded a few officials to rush over, intending to tie up the boss of Huamanlou.
At this time, the boss of the building knew that he had made a big mistake, he should not be tough with Zhou Ming in front of so many people, if he saved a little face for Zhou Ming, even if he lost in the confrontation just now, he might still have a chance to live, but it was too late to say anything at this moment.
Just when several officials took out thick ropes and were about to tie him up, he suddenly had an idea, climbed a few steps forward, and lay at Zhou Ming's feet, crying and begging: "Lord Zhou, the villain should die, not only lured the wolf into the house, but also offended Lord Zhou."
It's just that I really don't know that he is a spy in the northern country, and I ask Lord Zhou to find out.
As long as Lord Zhou is aware of everything and exempts me from responsibility, I am willing to give all my belongings to Lord Zhou! ”
Several officials who were about to make a move, when they heard this, they all stopped what they were doing, and they all looked at Zhou Ming in unison.
Deng Tong and Xia Dezhang were also moved, because both of them knew in their hearts that Hua Manlou could be said to be one of the most profitable places in the entire capital city, and as the boss of Hua Manlou, his entire net worth may be more than those dignitaries who came here to consume, if he really obtained this huge wealth, he would have to struggle for at least twenty years less.
The two of them wanted to go over and persuade Zhou Ming to consider the proposal of the boss of Huamanlou, but before the two of them could go over, Zhou Zhou Ming said coldly: "You can keep it and buy the coffin!" ”
