Chapter 71: The Ninth Master of the Red Sect
After rescuing a few more people one after another, Pei Yancheng left with the fire team of the county government. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Fortunately, no one was burned to death this time, which was considered to be in danger, but the fire really couldn't be talked about, and the implication was widespread, and more than 60 houses were destroyed, leaving only some residues, which could not be repaired, and could only be rebuilt.
The surrounding neighbors were crying and screaming, unaware of the situation they were exacerbating by the fact that a little beggar was stealing their money bags.
Pei Yancheng's timely departure is intriguing!
He seemed to be deliberately avoiding the cries of these people, which Gao Fangping was very curious about. Judging from Lao Pei's personality who can't rub the sand with his eyes, he should have arrested a piece after fighting the fire, served on the spot, and asked about the cause of the fire, but Pei Yancheng didn't, and left as if he was deliberately hiding from something after saving people?
"There is only one explanation for this, Lao Pei knows the cause of the fire, and he can't control it." Gao Fangping muttered to himself.
Lin Chong was stunned, paid attention to it and said: "It's really strange, the people affected by the disaster just cried, didn't shout grievances, and didn't even kneel down and beg the county lord to give an explanation?" ”
Gao Fangping frowned and walked to the side of the rice cake girl.
"Mother, don't be sad, now that business is doing well in the market, Jing'er will work hard, and it won't take long to make enough money and build a new house." The rice cake lady hugged the middle-aged woman and cried.
A middle-aged martyr dressed in official clothes next to him sighed and said: "Xiaojing listen to me, don't build a house, sell the land, and move away quickly." ”
"Wang Zhisi, my family has lived here for generations, and Jing'er doesn't want to move away." The rice cake lady cried.
Gao Fangping tilted his head and thought about it, and beckoned to that Wang Zhisi.
Wang Zhisi didn't dare to be careless, and walked over and arched his hand: "May I ask which noble person it is?" ”
"My family is Gao Fangping from Tokyo." Guan Sheng said with a very uneducated look.
Wang Abshisi hurriedly saluted: "Wang Ming, the lowly Daimyo County Yabu Division, meet your lordship." ”
"What kind of copywriter are you?" Gao Fangping said curiously.
"The lowly position is to manage the land contract of the daimyo prefecture." Wang Abshiji said respectfully.
Gao Fangping touched his chin and said: "In this way, if there is a strong developer forcibly demolishing the enclosure, you will definitely know about it?" ”
Sweat.
Although Gao Fangping was talking nonsense, but the general meaning Wang Zhisi understood, his expression changed, and he arched his hand: "I, Wang Ming, am just a little person who goes with the flow, and I have taken my leave." ”
With that, he left.
Lin Chong asked several times in the market instead of Gao Fangping, but those whose homes were burned were reluctant to speak.
The rice cake lady came over and wanted to say something, but her mother said loudly: "Jing'er is back, don't talk nonsense, let's move out one day." No big deal. ”
"If you can't ask, they don't dare to say, my lord, let's go?" Lin Chongdao.
Gao Fangping took two steps, suddenly stopped and turned his head and said, "Have you paid today's protection fee?" ”
All the neighbors couldn't help but look at each other and nodded their heads, most of them had paid.
"That's good, everyone endure for a while, and if you have the ability to leave the limelight for a while, I'm afraid there will be a war here! I have to do something after collecting the protection money, otherwise I won't be able to collect the money in the future, cutting off people's financial routes is like killing my parents, that is to bayonet red, it seems that some people want to cut off my financial routes. ”
Gao Fangping said with a blushing face and strode away.
When passing by a little beggar with a dirty face, Gao Fangping pointed and said, "Arrest this kid." ”
With a wave of his hand, Guan Sheng took down the little beggar who had stolen chickens and dogs earlier, as if he were lifting a chicken......
Back in the courtyard of the left-behind mansion, the nine-year-old little beggar knelt on the ground, watching Gao Fangping sharpen the bamboo sticks, and he asked worriedly: "My lord, what are you doing with the bamboo sticks?" ”
"After a while, the bamboo sticks will be pierced through the cracks between your fingernails. The main reason is that people in this era have the temperament of heroes and easily refuse to confess, so there is such trouble. Gao Fangping said with a smile.
The little beggar was so frightened that he cried: "The little one is not a good man, even if the adult asks, he must say that he must say that he has worked hard to sharpen the bamboo stick." ”
"Who set the fire over there in Beimen Hutong?"
Gao Fangping knows that martial arts novels are not all nonsense, the news of the beggar gang has always been very well-informed, this little beggar is clever, and he makes a living in that market, so he usually knows some news.
The little beggar looked at the bamboo sticks and said smartly: "It was made by the ninth master of the ruffian, and the adults must not mention that it was the villain, otherwise the villain will have no way to live." ”
"Where can I find Red Nine?" Gao Fangping asked.
So the well-informed little beggar said a place, which sounded like a green building.
Gao Fangping turned to Lin Chong and said, "Go and arrest it, you want to live." By the way, buy some meat and come back to eat hot pot. ”
Lin Chong did not hesitate and rode out on a war horse. By the way, he took the little beggar out of the stay-behind mansion, kicked him twice in the buttocks, and let him go......
It didn't take long for Hong Jiu, who was sleeping with a beautiful woman, to be caught and taken back by Lin Chong, and on the way back, Lin Chong also went to the vegetable market to buy a lot of meat and spices.
"Brother Jiu, come on, come on, eat some together."
Gao Fangping instructed the ruffian Hong Jiu, and then Hong Jiu sat down to accompany the legendary "adult" to eat hot pot on thin ice, and felt very cool after taking a bite, and he was not polite, so he became a little proud.
Hong Jiu knows that usually big people sometimes encounter things that are inconvenient to come forward to do, so it is time for a ruffian like himself to make money.
"I don't know what your lordship has to call Hong Jiu to come this time?" Hong Jiu said respectfully while eating hot pot.
"I heard that when you set fire to the North Gate Dao Lifang, your body was extremely elegant, and this official saw that you were a talent, and he planned to stay by his side and wait for use. But the premise is to tell me whose instructions you receive, and I won't let you do it in vain, and I'll spend fifty times to buy your news. Gao Fangping said while eating.
Jingle Bell -
The red nine faces were like earth, and the wine glass fell to the ground in fright.
After all, it was a crime during the day, and there were too many eyeliners, and Hong Jiu felt that he might not be able to deny it, so he knelt down and said: "The villain is wrong, just because he has a hatred with a family in the Dao Lifang on weekdays, and the villain is not popular, and he was drunk for a while yesterday, so he set fire to his house, I never thought that it caused such a fire, but fortunately, I heard that no one burned to death, please punish the adults lightly." ”
Gao Fangping put down his chopsticks and said, "Give you one last chance and tell me who instructed me." ”
"Please spare the little one, it's really a small spontaneous behavior, the little family has an eighty-year-old mother, and a child who is waiting to be fed, please spare your life." Red Nine kowtowed.
Gao Fangping touched his chin and said, "Oh? It's strange that you're no more than twenty-five years old, but your mother is eighty? She is fifty-five years old and has the ability to give birth to you? Let's talk about it, what is the secret recipe, Lao Tzu spent 10,000 yuan to buy your mother's secret recipe for having a child, because my big Song Erlang is not enough, and I have to have more babies to have a future. ”
“!” Hong Jiu pondered awkwardly, can't he give birth at the age of fifty-five? Aren't all the rivers and lakes blowing like this?
Gao Fang said indifferently: "Don't say yes, right?" ”
"It's really the spontaneous behavior of the villain, and there are no dead people in the fire, please hand over the villain to the Daimyo Prefecture." Hong Jiu continued to kowtow.
Gao Fangping put down his wine glass and said to Guan Sheng: "Chop off his left foot." ”
If Lin Chong might hesitate, but Guan Sheng wouldn't, thinking of the fire that caused hundreds of people to be homeless, Guan Sheng was quick and accurate, the cold light flashed, the wind was piercing, and when the Qinglong Yanyue Knife was re-clubbed on the ground, Hong Jiu's left leg had been separated from under his knee, and blood was gushing.
Red Nine didn't even have time to pain. It wasn't until Lin Chong tied his legs with a cloth strap that Hong Jiu screamed like a pig.
Idiot--
It wasn't enough to just tie it up, and put his broken leg on the red-hot pot, and suddenly it was like a teppanyaki, and bursts of smoke rose up, accompanied by even more terrible screams.
The bleeding stopped, and then Hong Jiu, who was soaked in sweat, softened to the ground, and there was no strength left.
"The second time you ask who instructed you, if you can't hear the answer, you cut off your right foot." Gao Fangping said, "I will ask four times, and if you don't hear what you want to hear, your limbs will be gone." Then I will hand you over to the Daimyo Prefecture to send you. If nothing else, you should be able to say it. ”
"Li Gu, the housekeeper of the Lu officials!"
Red Nine was a little more clever than expected, and did not further waste Gao Fangping's patience, so he saved the other three.
Gao Fangping hesitated for a moment, it was not difficult to verify the news, so he listened to it, nodded and said, "Give him fifty guan and let him leave." ”
Xiao Niu Gao didn't quite understand that it was already a blessing to let him go, why he still had to give money, but he had to reluctantly give a big silver ingot.
Hong Jiu was a little afraid to take it, and he was hesitating in a weak look.
"Take it, I said it would cost you fifty yuan to buy your news. Remember to take your 'feet' with you when you go. Gao Fang waved his hand.
Hong Jiu limped away with the money, a wooden stick, and now there is no time to be annoyed by anything, a ruffian like him knows the situation very well, Gao Fangping is already very merciful, and gave fifty yuan of money, which is used to run away, otherwise it is difficult to betray Lu Junyi's housekeeper Li Gu, and it is basically difficult to continue to live in Beijing......
"I can't imagine that Mr. Lu is such a person, Master Ya, how can we protect the neighborhood from suffering!"
Xiao Niu Gao was very stupid and said childish words, mainly thinking of the misery of being homeless in the past and taking his younger brothers and sisters around to find a place to stay.
"Don't rush, first of all, verify the authenticity of the message. Second, we need to take a long-term view. Gao Fangping said.
Lin Chong hugged his fists and said: "Yanei, in fact, this trick is very simple, Lu Junyi instructed to set fire to warn the neighbors, if you don't know how to raise it, the next time you set fire, it will not be day but night, once at night, everyone will be alert and slow to react, and many people will be burned to death." Secondly, if the house is burned, then the land is even less valuable, and Lu Junyi can get the land he wants at a lower price. I didn't expect Lin Chong to have such a senior brother! It's easy for Yanai to make a move, just buy the land in those neighborhoods according to the market price, does he Lu Junyi dare to come and rob Yanei? ”
"I'm not going to do that." Gao Fangping narrowed his eyes and said, "Lu Junyi is not stupid, as soon as I buy those lands, it is obvious that if I want to fight against them, he will retract back, so he will go to seek other lands and kill other poor people." In this way, on the contrary, I did a lot of wrongdoing, bought some land that I didn't want, and returned it. On the surface, it is easy to cause misunderstanding, making people think that I am seeking to seize those lands and directing arson, what do you think? ”
"But how can you be born?" Guan Sheng said anxiously.
"Don't worry, let Lu Junyi buy it. It's not time for me to make a move. Gao Fangping said......
