The first lord of the poor family

Chapter 423: Being careful is useless

Zhuang Kangcheng knelt on the ground and did not dare to speak, for fear that if he said something wrong and offended Lin Hai, he would be dragged out and chopped.

"Write down everything you know, and explain all your money clearly. If I find out that you have hidden anything, I will cut you into pieces!"

Lin Hai slammed the table suddenly with murderous intent!
Zhuang Kangcheng was very scared, but he also wanted to get an accurate word.

He bravely asked, "If you explain everything clearly, can you let me go this time?"

"Then it depends on whether what you tell us can bring down all the officials involved in the prefect and county magistrate.

If it's of no use, I still can't spare you! "

"Don't worry, sir, all the evidence I provided is absolutely true.

Even killing them a hundred times would be enough. "

"Very good, then write it down quickly. My patience is limited."

After Lin Hai finished speaking, he asked Zhuang Kangcheng to bring a pen and paper and write down all the evidence he knew.

Zhuang Kangcheng stayed alone in the room, his face uncertain.

There were guards standing outside and next to him, watching him closely.

Escape was impossible.

And he always wanted to be sure that he would let him go after the explanation.

But in the end he didn't get the promise he wanted.

The more it looked like this, the more worried he became.

If he confessed everything and refused to recognize anyone and killed him, there would be nothing he could do.

"What are you thinking about? If you dare to play tricks, my lord has already given orders to cut off your hands and feet first.

Then throw it into the salt pond and marinate you into bacon. "The guard behind him scolded him coldly.

"Hurry up and write, your patience has its limits."

The two guards scolded him, and Zhuang Kangcheng no longer dared to hesitate. He sighed helplessly and began to write.

He first wrote down the collusion between officials and him, how to bully people into embezzling money.

Even officials and bandits colluded together to sell illegal salt.

The people here live in poverty, but the officials are making a lot of money.

Living a very luxurious life in Haidong.

Lin Hai and Yuhua Shi were chatting outside.

"Do you think he will really give an honest explanation? Or let him go after the explanation is completed?"

Yuhuashi asked.

This matter made him quite entangled. If Zhuang Kangcheng was not released, he would not explain everything clearly.

It would be really unwilling to let him go after the explanation.

Lin Hai smiled and said: "Why should a person who has committed such a heinous crime keep his promise to him.

Even if there is really retribution for not keeping the promise, then I will take care of it.

It is absolutely impossible to let a person who has done many evil things escape alive.

If he goes anywhere, he will harm the people. "

Yuhuashi listened with great admiration.

Most people in ancient times still attached great importance to promises, and believed that once they betrayed their promises, they would really receive retribution.

Lin Hai had to bear such danger in order to deal with these evil people.

Yuhuashi feels that such courage is indeed admirable.

"Brother Lin, let me do this. I'll kill him. This doesn't count as you betraying your promise."

Lin Hai smiled and said, "When did I say I would let him go? It seems that I didn't make a promise at all, so how can it be considered a betrayal of my promise?"

Yuhuashi was stunned after hearing this.

When Zhuang Kangcheng raised this matter, Lin Hai did not speak.

However, Yuhuashi already thought that Lin Hai had agreed to him by default.

Unexpectedly, Lin Hai turned out to be a little clever.

Anyway, I didn't agree in person, so if I said it, it wouldn't be considered a betrayal of my promise.Yuhuashi said in a dumbfounded voice, "I really admire you more and more."

"Hehe, don't look at this guy as a gang leader and he is very ruthless in his work.

But in fact, he was used to living a life of fine clothes and fine food, and he had become more afraid of death than anyone else.

And they caught him and made him do the hard work.

You also saw several blood blisters on his hands just now.

It can be seen from this that he has not worked for a long time.

The better life is, the more people's will will be corroded and they will no longer be able to suffer. Lin Hai said lightly.

"That makes sense. On the surface, these people are more vicious than anyone else, but when they encounter powerful people, they immediately become intimidated."

Yuhuashi agreed very much.

In these two days, people quickly discovered that life was a little different from before.

The people from the Salt Gang who were supposed to come to collect the money seemed to all of a sudden disappear.

Only a handful of people from the salt gang are still guarding the salt fields, allowing the laborers to work non-stop.

But other small vendors and ordinary people doing business will never see anyone from the Salt Gang again.

Although I was very happy, I was a little uneasy.

I don’t understand why the people from the Salt Gang didn’t come to collect the money.

You still have to come back in a few days to collect the previous protection fee.

I spent two days feeling both happy and worried.

It took Lin Hai and Yuhuashi two days to find Zhuang Kangcheng.

"How about it? It's been two days and you still haven't finished writing?"

"Lord Qi, this guy seems to be playing tricks and only wrote the evidence of those corrupt officials.

He didn’t explain anything about himself! "

"Oh? So you choose to plead guilty and die."

"My lord has misunderstood. The reason why I haven't written in the past two days is to wait for your lord's promise." Zhuang Kangcheng said quickly.

Lin Hai frowned: "Haven't everything that needs to be said been said? What else do you want to say?"

"I have written out all the evidence against me, but the only thing left now is where I hid the money and the evidence against me.

The villain thinks that since the adults want to let me go, there is no need to know what I have done.

So there’s no need to write it down, right? "

"That makes sense. There is really no need to write it! Where is the money you mentioned hidden? Send someone to bring it back!"

"Sir, wait a minute, if I hand over all the money to you, can you let me go?

I must make a promise from the adults and swear that you will never kill me? "

"It seems you are quite courageous.

Let me swear a poisonous oath for a person like you? "

Lin Hai would not spoil him. As long as he got the evidence from the government, it didn't matter even if he couldn't find hundreds of thousands of taels of silver.

Anyway, there is no shortage of money on hand now.

Just look for it slowly in the future.

Zhuang Kangcheng was immediately shocked and shouted loudly: "Your Excellency, you can't keep your word. I have promised you all the money.

And this matter will definitely be kept in my stomach from now on, and I won't say a word outside.

This money is equivalent to giving to two adults! "

“It’s true that I like money, but there are many ways to make money.

Since I promised to let you go, it is natural that I promise you a thousand pieces of gold.

You are the first person who dares to make me swear! "

Lin Hai looked at him coldly, as if looking at a dead person.
