Monday Ming loudly rejected the bribe of the boss of Huamanlou, and the words he just said were not only chic and abnormal, but also imposing, which directly shocked the audience.

The dignitaries and dignitaries at the back of the team, although they lost to Zhou Ming in the previous confrontation, and they were also convinced, but some of them always complained about Zhou Ming, and felt that his righteous and awe-inspiring appearance was all pretended, and the reason why they didn't dare to accept their money was just because they were timid.

But after seeing that he refused the purchase of the boss of Huamanlou without hesitation, these people's impressions of Zhou Ming all changed, and the resentment in their hearts not only disappeared, but also thought that Zhou Ming was a real gentleman and a pillar of the country in the future.

Because only such a person can be unmoved in the face of such a great temptation.

These dignitaries and dignitaries all know in their hearts that although the boss of the Huamanlou is inferior to them in status, he is far more wealthy than all of them, if he takes out all his net worth, this huge wealth is not something that ordinary people can refuse, and even these nobles from wealthy families are difficult to resist this temptation.

Deng Tong and Xia Dezhang saw Zhou Ming's refusal so categorically, and they felt sorry for him for a while, after all, this kind of opportunity to get rich overnight is not available every day, once you miss it today, you may never encounter it again in the future.

But the matter has come to this point, and the two of them don't dare to say anything more, after all, Zhou Ming's temper is clear to both of them, he can make this decision in such a very short time, it must have his own considerations, if the two of them don't take the liberty to talk more, not only may it not work, but also bring disaster to themselves, and the gains will outweigh the losses.

The officials who stood in their respective posts, because they had seen Zhou Ming refuse the bribes of those dignitaries before, so they were not surprised by Zhou Ming's behavior this time, but felt that it was normal, and each of them had no waves in their hearts, after all, they knew very well that even if Zhou Zhou Ming accepted this huge bribe, it would not be beneficial to them.

Their official position is so low, even if Zhou Zhou Ming has the heart to share the spoils, it will not be their turn.

The boss of Hua Manlou was in a desperate situation just now, and he planned to exchange all his net worth for his own life, but in fact, this trick was also a helpless move, and after he said that, he regretted it a little in his heart.

In addition to the huge wealth handed over to the master behind him, he used various methods to deceive the upper and lower levels, and also accumulated a huge amount of wealth, although this money is not as much as the master behind him, but the amount is also considerable.

Originally, the reason why he accumulated this wealth was that one day, if the master behind him no longer trusted him, he would wash his hands of gold, take this wealth and his family, and flee to a paradise where no one knows him, and start a new life.

So this money is particularly important to him, and he is absolutely reluctant to take it out if it is not a last resort.

He thought that Zhou Zhou Ming was just a little catcher who had never seen money, and it must be easy to deal with, as long as he paid a lot of money to buy him, he would definitely help him get rid of his crimes, and maybe he would let himself go on the spot.

It's just that what he didn't expect was that Zhou Ming's reaction surprised him.

Not only did this kid refuse on the spot, but his speech was quite ugly, and there seemed to be no room for negotiation in his tone.

The owner of Huamanlou has been operating such an entertainment venue for so many years, and he has seen a lot of various officials in the court, big or small, usually these people are either greedy for money or lustful, as long as he uses a little trick, these people will be played by him in applause.

It was the first time he had encountered such a difficult opponent as Zhou Zhou Ming.

The boss of Huamanlou opened his mouth wide, stunned on the ground, unable to say a word, and his face was hot for a while, because he knew in his heart that everyone present was laughing at him at this time.

However, he couldn't care about these mocking glances anymore, because he had more important things to deal with, and he had to come up with a countermeasure immediately, otherwise it would be too late for Zhou Ming to send him to the yamen of the General Affairs Mansion.

While thinking of countermeasures, he was always wondering in his heart, he took out all his net worth to smash Zhou Ming, why did Zhou Ming not waver in the slightest?

You know, if this money was smashed on other officials, those officials would have been stunned long ago.

While he was puzzled, he couldn't help but glance at the people present with his spare eyes.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he realized what the problem was.

He was too nervous and anxious just now, so when he opened his mouth to buy Zhou Ming, he forgot where he was, and he forgot that there were so many people around him.

With so many people present, even if Zhou Ming wanted to accept the money, he didn't have the courage to do so.

Thinking of this, the boss of Hua Manlou regretted for a while, and at the same time fell into deep self-blame, he has been in the scene for many years, he has seen countless large and small scenes, how could he just make such a faint trick at the most critical moment? This is a good thing, not only could he not save himself, but blocked Zhou Ming's road.

Because he knew in his heart that a smart person like Zhou Zhou Ming, seeing him buying himself so bluntly just now, would definitely not think that he was a ghost and used a faint trick, but would think that he was dying and wanted to drag himself into the water.

And once Zhou Zhou Ming has such an idea in his heart, when dealing with himself, he will not only enforce the law impartially, but also secretly make a heavy hand, causing himself to die.

Thinking of these terrible consequences, the boss of Huamanlou was desperate, at this time he no longer had the luxury of expecting Zhou Ming to forgive his sins, he only hoped that Zhou Zhou Ming could give him a happy result when he took his life.

After he saw the seven-star knife in Zhou Ming's hand, he suddenly had an idea, anyway, his life could not be saved, rather than lingering, it was better to end his own life, which would not only avoid being taken to the Yamen of the General Affairs Office by Zhou Ming for interrogation, but also save the lives of his family.

Because he can commit suicide while being captured, it is enough to show his loyalty to the forces behind him, as long as he does not betray the master behind him, the master behind him will definitely not harm his family after death.

After making up his mind, the boss of Hua Manlou was not so afraid, he didn't explain anything, in the face of everyone's ridiculed eyes, he just kept silent, but his eyes kept looking at Zhou Ming, wanting to take advantage of his unpreparedness to snatch the seven-star knife in his hand.

As long as he dies under this knife, all his suffering will be relieved, and it will also cause a big trouble for Zhou Ming.

After all, Zhou Ming only has the duty to arrest him, but does not have the right to execute him, once he dies under Zhou Ming's knife, the court will blame him, and Zhou Ming will definitely not be able to eat and walk around.

After thinking of these serious consequences, a smile appeared on the face of the boss of Hua Manlou, and a burst of pleasure of revenge was born in his heart, as if Zhou Ming could be pinched to death by him at any time.

Zhou Ming, who was standing on the side, thought that after the boss of the flower building was rejected, he would definitely kneel at his feet, cry bitterly, and continue to beg himself.

What he didn't expect was that this boss didn't play according to the routine, not only did he not continue to beg himself, but knelt in place, maintaining a terrible calm, and from time to time there was a weird smile on his face.

Seeing that this boss was so abnormal, Zhou Zhou Ming understood in his heart that this kid must not be holding back his fart, so he remained vigilant, stood in place, and glanced at Xia Dezhang and them, meaning that they should quickly take the rope and tie up this boss, and stop letting him play any tricks.

Xia Dezhang nodded and hurriedly commanded his subordinates to do it.

Several officials rushed up, unfolded the thick rope in their hands, and wanted to tie up the boss of the building.

While Zhou Ming was supervising next to him, he found that there was an escape path on the left of the boss of Huamanlou that was unguarded, so he turned his head and ordered a servant next to him to stand in that position.

The boss of Hua Manlou was waiting for this opportunity, and when several officials were about to make a move on him, he suddenly rolled forward, deftly dodged the encirclement of several officials, and moved in front of Zhou Ming in an instant, and then without waiting for anyone to react, he reached out to pull out the seven-star knife on Zhou Ming's waist.

All the actions are done in one go.

"The surname is Zhou, I can't kill you in this life and this life, and I will take your life when I become a ghost after death."

The boss of Hua Manlou did not awaken the martial spirit, so he did not have martial arts cultivation at all, he knew that he was not Zhou Ming's opponent, and planned to commit suicide immediately after getting the seven-star sword.

"Be careful, sir!"

After seeing this scene, Deng Tong and Xia Dezhang were all frightened, and both of them rushed to Zhou Ming's side, for fear that Zhou Zhou Ming would be poisoned by this boss.

Those dignitaries and dignitaries standing at the back, when they saw that the boss of the Huamanlou was at the end of the road, they actually dared to sneak attack Zhou Ming and wanted to die with him, this scene seemed to them to be incredible.

Because they all knew in their hearts that Zhou Ming's martial arts cultivation was extremely high, and this boss was tantamount to sending him to death, and there was no hope of survival.

They didn't understand why the boss did this, but at the same time, they admired him very much, and felt that his courage was commendable, after all, when they lost to Zhou Ming just now, they would only bow their heads and beg for mercy, kneeling on the ground, and no one could have such courage as him.

Before Zhou Ming came back to his senses, the boss of Hua Manlou had already held his hand on the handle of the seven-star knife, and he pulled it out hard, and half of the blade was already out of his body.

Just when the boss of Hua Manlou thought that his plan was about to succeed, he suddenly felt that the hand holding the handle of the knife did not obey the call, and there was an irresistible force, and the blade of the knife was inserted back into the scabbard.

The boss of Huamanlou looked up and saw that Zhou Ming was looking at him with a smile on his face, his hand grabbing his arm, and he was using brute force to borrow his hand to push the blade back into the scabbard.

The boss of Hua Manlou is a hard bone, he doesn't plan to admit defeat, so he concentrates the strength of his whole body on his arm, wanting to fight to the death with Zhou Ming.
