The first lord of the poor family

Chapter 401 Capturing the Prefect
"The Black Dragon Gang is so powerful, can you beat them?" Some people have a serious lack of confidence in Lin Hai.

Even if we beat them away today, these people will just hide and come out to bully the people later.

It will only make it more difficult for the people.

"Don't worry, since I'm here I will definitely wipe out all the Black Dragon Gang.

Moreover, many workshops will be built here. Even if you don't need to fish, you can still work in the workshops.

The wages are definitely not less than what you earn from fishing. "Lin Hai told them his idea.

"It's not bad if that's the case. You can make so much money by working in the workshop, which is much better than fishing."

“That’s right, fishing is okay when the weather is warm, but it’s really hard in winter.

Every year there are people who fall into the water while fishing and freeze to death. Working in a workshop can at least save their lives. "

“Since we can protect their safety, let’s continue working.

I can make more money and buy cotton-padded clothes for my children at home. "

With Lin Hai's promise, the people finally felt relieved.

The teams were quickly divided and took turns to harvest the reeds.

Because the time is relatively short, I work very hard, which actually increases the efficiency a lot.

After working for an hour, I was exhausted and paralyzed, so I lay on the boat to rest and let the others continue.

Not long after, another Black Dragon gang came over to attack, but they were discovered by the officers and soldiers in advance and shot dead with crossbow arrows.

Several sneak attacks failed and resulted in heavy casualties.

People from the Black Dragon Gang no longer dare to come over for sneak attacks.

Go back and report the news quickly.

When Jin Dajiao heard that their method failed again, he was so angry that he smashed the table.

"What the hell is going on? Everything I do doesn't go well!"

“It’s better to send someone a message to the government as soon as possible, so that the officials can come forward to drive these people away.

Besides, we can't go out to steal money. The prefect won't receive any money, and it won't do them any good. "Wu Qi suggested.

Jin Dajiao nodded, feeling that what he said made sense: "It seems that this is the only way to go.

I want to investigate where this invincible gang came from. I don't believe that they appeared out of thin air and specifically dealt with us.

Let the government find a reason to drive them away or arrest them, or rob tax money quickly. "

Jin Dajiao sent people to take the gold bars and sneak out to the city.

Several men sent out came to the city and found the Black Tiger Gang as soon as possible.

He had no idea that the current Black Tiger Gang had all been wiped out and were all under Lin Hai's control.

When I heard that they were from the Black Jiao Gang, I lured them into the gang and captured them directly.

Everyone in the Black Dragon Gang looked confused.

They are all obviously brothers and gangs, so why arrest them?

What follows is a pair of tortures, making them tell everything.

It turned out that the government was asked to deal with Lin Hai.

Send the message over immediately.

After Lin Hai learned about this matter, he discussed it with Yuhua Shi.

Decided to play a trick.

Let his subordinates dress up as members of the Black Tiger Gang to deliver gifts to the prefect.

As long as the prefect accepts the money, it is equivalent to having one more piece of evidence against him.

I sent someone to bring the gold bars to the prefect, and when I heard that they were from the Black Tiger Gang, they were very polite.

After meeting the prefect, he handed him the gold bars and told him everything.

The prefect agreed immediately.

It was easy for him to drive away the people and prevent them from cutting reeds.

The key is to give him so many gold bars that can be converted into 2000 taels of silver.

This is his salary as a magistrate for 20 years.

Immediately mobilize a large number of government officials and head to the lake together.

Lin Hai was doing it in full swing.

I saw the government ship arriving.

In order to better shock the people, the prefect decided to come forward in person.As soon as they met, they yelled at each other loudly.

"Who asked you to harvest reeds here? These reeds belong to the imperial court. No one can harvest them without the government's permission."

The people are no longer afraid of the Black Dragon Gang, but they do not dare to confront the government.

Seeing people from the government coming to stop him, he quickly stopped what he was doing.

Lin Hai received the notice and came to the prefect by boat.

"Who said the reeds here can't be harvested?"

"Be brave, don't kneel down quickly when you see the prefect!"

The yamen servant next to him yelled loudly.

“It’s you who should kneel down, you dog officials who collude with the bandits to oppress the people.

Do you know what the crime is? "Wang Dayong yelled loudly.

"If you dare to frame me, arrest them all!"

The prefect was furious.

He has the highest official position here, and he dares to expose his background to his face. How can he be spared?

"Wait a minute, let me ask you first. These reeds have dried up in winter and will grow again next year.

There is no use in putting it here, so why not allow the people to harvest it? Lin Hai asked coldly.

"Hmph, you unscrupulous people are doing all kinds of things, and I don't have any need to explain to you.

If you know the truth, you should be arrested as soon as possible, otherwise you will be charged with treason. "

Lin Hai didn't care at all after hearing his threats.

He waved his hand and asked his subordinates to wave flags.

The soldiers quickly gathered around.

When the prefect saw that they wanted to take action, he couldn't help but panic.

There were only a few hundred government officials in total, but when we arrived, we realized that there were so many people harvesting reeds.

No wonder the Black Dragon Gang was so impatient and willing to spend a lot of money to get him to come out and drive away the people.

"Are you rebelling? Do you know what the crime of rebellion is?" the prefect shouted loudly and with anger.

"Your crime is much more serious than rebellion. Do you know these people?"

Lin Hai waved his hand and several people came over from behind.

The prefect's face changed color when he saw them.

These people were the ones who gave him gold bars.

"You, you are not..."

Lin Hai smiled coldly: "What's wrong with them? The gold bars I gave you are easy to use!"

The prefect's eyes widened with a look of disbelief on his face.

"As a prefect, you actually took money from water bandits and oppressed the people on their behalf. What crime should you be guilty of!" Lin Hai shouted loudly.

The prefect was so frightened that he almost knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

But he suddenly remembered that he was the prefect, and everything here had to obey his orders.

His face suddenly turned fierce.

“Hmph, I don’t care who you are, if you dare to frame me, you deserve death.

Take them all and put them in jail. "

"Audacious, this is a high-ranking member of the imperial court, the Commander-in-Chief of the Navy and the Imperial Envoy, Lin Hai, Lord Lin.

When he saw the imperial envoy, he quickly knelt down. "

Wang Dayong shouted loudly and took out the gold seal.

He looked at all the officials in front of him with cold eyes.

"If you don't kneel down when you see the Imperial Envoy, do you all want to rebel?"

All the officials suddenly woke up and knelt down quickly.

The prefect was stunned and collapsed on the boat.

The imperial envoy paid a private visit incognito, but he didn't know anything about it.

This time it’s completely over!
