Chapter 33, Human Trafficking? It Had Infiltrated the Chain of Benefits of an Entire Dynasty!
The bailiffs immediately stepped forward with their hitting sticks.
The guard beside the young master shouted.
Stop!
Zhang Muzhi, do you know who my young master is?
You dare to torture him?
He Chuan ignored him. If you had committed a crime in Qingyuan County, you would be punished. If you dared to snatch a civilian's daughter on the street, even giving him 50 slaps would be a light punishment!
Four or five bailiffs directly held up the young master and pressed him to the ground to serve him with big boards. They did not hold back at all.
Impudent!
Let go of my young master!
Those few guards were anxious.
One had to know that if their master was injured, it meant that they did not protect him well.
When they returned, they would definitely be punished.
They might even be kicked out of the family with broken legs!
This was something that they could not afford.
Thus, they struggled with all their might, the veins all over their bodies bulging.
Not long after, that second-rate martial artist actually used brute force to break the rope and regain his freedom.
Just as he was about to attack and send the bailiffs who were using the punishment flying, his vision suddenly blurred!
He only felt a strong force crashing into his chest. Amidst the muffled sound of bones breaking, his body could not help but fly backward.
When he hit the wall of the government office, he bounced back and landed on the ground. When he looked into the hall, the county head magistrate actually stood at his original position, still maintaining the posture of a palm strike.
You you are actually a second-rate Puff
The strongest guard suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. Before he could finish his sentence, he fell to the ground and fainted.
The two third-rate guards were stunned.
How was this Zhang Muzhi so powerful?
Wasn't he rumored to be a third-rate warrior?
How did he kill their boss in an instant?
He Chuan looked back indifferently, Continue with the punishment!
The small conflict did not change the outcome of the young master being beaten up.
When the fifty boards fell, his entire waist and buttocks were covered in blood. He looked very miserable.
But this young master was not convinced.
His mouth was still full of profanities. He kept saying that he would make sure that everyone here died without a burial ground.
He Chuan smiled slightly and had the bailiffs hit him fifty slaps again.
This time, the young master could not even speak clearly.
Tell me the purpose of this trip to Qingyuan County. Also, how many times have you done such a thing as seizing a civilian girl?
The young master continued to wail but did not reply.
You're pretending not to hear me, right? Alright, fellas, hit him thirty more times!
The young master trembled, Don't Don't hit me anymore If you hit me again, I'm going to die
If you're afraid of death, then say it! He Chuan heavily strikes the wooden block on the table and exerts more pressure.
My family does business with the royal family. This time, I came out to purchase some exquisite goods that are not available in the north. I'm preparing to pay tribute to the nobles in the palace during the New Year.
What else?
He Chuan did not care about the purpose of his visit to Qingyuan County. He cared more about how to convict him.
The young master avoided his gaze, I've only done this kind of thing today once, really just this once! That little beauty is really too beautiful. I couldn't help it
The surrounding people discussed amongst themselves.
This little brat is so arrogant and despotic. He must have done many things to bully the good. First time? Ptui! Who would believe it!
That's right. He did nothing good when he entered the city. Old Wang's horse was only traveling with him. Yet this brat said that it blocked his way and had the guards kill the horse without even paying for it!
Hehe, in all the years that my Lord has been in this position, he has never made a wrong or unjust claim. To dare to lie in front of my Lord, he must be tired of living.
This kind of person should be beaten up! If he is honest, he will naturally say it!
He Chuan didn't believe it either, but he still operated the Deduction System to verify it and quickly analyzed it before coming to a conclusion.
He was lying.
Looks like you're very dishonest. Then I'll beat you another 30 Oh no, I'll beat you up another 50 times.
The corners of He Chuan's mouth curled up slightly. In the eyes of this young master, this smile was no different from a devil.
He subconsciously wanted to dodge, but the moment he moved, the wound on his body was torn open, and he immediately cried out in pain.
But looking at the bailiffs who walked in again, he still endured the pain and shouted.
Stop!
The bailiffs glanced at He Chuan.
He Chuan gently raised a hand, indicating that he could stop. Then he said faintly, My patience is limited. If you only know how to talk nonsense, you don't have to speak anymore later.
Yes yes I understand
The young master lowered his eyes. This sentence was very threatening. He was already a little afraid.
He Chuan calmly asked, How many times have you done this?
I can't count it
The young master was a little hesitant, but looking at He Chuan's eyes that seemed to be able to see through his heart, he still said this sentence.
There was an uproar outside the hall, and the people cried out in surprise.
How many girls had been raped by this beast!!
He Chuan also frowned.
But he used the Deduction System to make the calculations.
So his thoughts were somewhat different from the people's.
He couldn't remember clearly.
This meant that the young master had done similar things no less than dozens of times.
Even more than a hundred times!
What did this mean?
This meant that someone was backing him up!
He was just a descendant of a merchant. How could he remain unharmed despite committing so many crimes?
In this era, the status of a merchant was not high.
Therefore, He Chuan followed this line of thought and interrogated him.
At first, this young master was still vague and did not reveal much.
Later, He Chuan directly broke his legs.
He said that if he did not tell the truth, he would use the cruelest torture.
Of course, this was to scare him.
But the young master obviously could not help it.
Previously, He Chuan had already left a very deep impression on him, so much so that after this, he promised to tell him what he knew.
However, he asked He Chuan to temporarily close the government office and forbid the people from listening, otherwise, he would not say even if he died.
He Chuan ordered the government office servants to do as he said.
Only then did the young master slowly speak.
It turned out that the family that this young master belonged to did not only do business in the country.
In private, they also do human trafficking!
As long as they met beautiful girls, they would capture them and bring them to the capital. The young masters would enjoy them first.
After that, they would use their connections to send them to various parts of the dynasty and let the high officials and nobles play with them.
When they were tired of playing with them, they would sell the girls to brothels and exchange them for money. After that, the money would once again be sent to the high officials in the capital.
With that, half of the dynasty's officials would gain benefits, so naturally, no one would care.
Even if it caused public resentment, the local government officials would only put on a show and capture this young master and let him go in private.
These women would only be manipulated by others until they were old and yellow, ending their miserable lives.
After he said this, everyone was furious!
