Wang San said to Jiang Lin: "They didn't dare to lie under my nose, did they admit the wrong person?"
Jiang Lin said: "The manager of the farmhouse said that they were beggars, but are there still beggars in Shengjing who are not under your control? They not only killed people, but also destroyed something important, and the emperor will be furious if he knows this incident. It will have a great impact on you, and I hope you don't hide it from me."
Wang San frowned, and brushed his dirty hair, "There is still a group of people I can't control, but they are not beggars, but some hooligans who pretend to be beggars. Their leader is Fang Ba, and there are not many people under his command, but they all are young and strong. They only beg occasionally, and most of the time they find trouble with small stalls and forcefully collect copper coins as protection fees."
Jiang Lin's face was not very good, "This is Shengjing, under the feet of the emperor. Aren't they so bold? Also, there are yamen servants go on patrol in the street everyday, they don't care?"
Wang San said: "If someone reports the crime, they will be dealt with, and if someone doesn't report it, they will be ignored. Fang Ba and his group are too slippery to catch. If you dare to report the crime, the loss is not just a few copper coins, but the whole family will suffer, especially if there is a girl in the family, and those who set up a stall are afraid."
"Have they done these things before?" Jiang Lin's eyes gradually became dangerous.
Wang San couldn't understand the behavior of Fang Ba's group of people, so he slapped the ground, "Damn it, that bunch of beasts, they have ruined several lives. As a result, there is no evidence for the useless trash in the yamen. The case is over, and those beasts are still free."
Wang San was still a little annoyed, "It's because I'm not capable, or I have killed those beasts long ago."
Jiang Lin thought, maybe it was not the lack of evidence, but there were people above.
Jiang Lin asked, "People like Fang Ba are very good at inquiring about news or monitoring people, right?
"That's our strength. Shengjing's so-called inquisition is about buying information from us." Speaking of this, Wang San still felt proud.
Then it was almost the same, Fang Ba and his group collected protection fees, maybe the news they got could come faster, after all, the methods were tough.
Jiang Lin took out a piece of silver to Wang San, "Take me to find Fang Ba."
Wang San was overjoyed when he took the money, but he hesitated when he heard that he was looking for Fang Ba, "Young master, you are so delicate and tender, if you go, you will send yourself to the tiger's mouth, he is a beast that even a man he can ruin."
"It's okay, if he dares to touch me, Wei Yunzhao will tear him apart."
Wang San's face changed when he heard the words Wei Yunzhao, but his face was too dark. It was not obvious.
Wang San hurriedly got up, "For the sake of General Wei, I will go with you."
Wang San also ordered to call more people back, as if he was going to fight.
Jiang Lin stopped him, "I thought you should have known my identity." After all, he hired his subordinates to work before.
Wang San scratched his head and said nothing. Obviously, he respected Wei Yunzhao, but he looked down on the young master Jiang from Anyang Houfu.
"You know, Fang Ba also knows, especially since he might have done something wrong last night."
Wang San led two people and took Jiang Lin to find Fang Ba.
Fang Ba lived far away, and they walked for a long time before they arrived.
Wang San pointed to the yard and said to Jiang Lin, "The people under him usually live here. It's still early, and Fang Ba probably hasn't left yet."
Wang San didn't even knock on the door, just pushed the door open and went in. There were only five people in the courtyard, wearing dusty and patched clothes, squatting or standing, eating steamed buns. They surrounded Wang San as soon as they saw him.
"Hey, Wang San'er, such a rare guest, you dare to come to our territory with these two youngsters, do you come to be beaten?"
Someone saw Jiang Lin behind Wang San, and stretched out his hand to touch Jiang Lin's face. "Wang San'er, I can't tell. You actually have such a pretty boy by your side. This is a tribute to our boss...Ah!!"
Before he could finish speaking, a scream rang out first.
Before the outstretched hand touched Jiang Lin, Jiang Lin moved, grabbed the hand that the man sent over, and snapped it with his backhand, breaking it directly from the wrist.
Jiang Lin raised his foot and kicked the person far away.
The few other people who were still watching the show suddenly became serious, and looked at Jiang Lin vigilantly, "Who are you, you dare to come to our master's place to act wild?"
Then someone asked Wang San, "Wang San, you dare to mess around, if you dare to bring someone to find fault with us, believe it or not, our master can directly kill you!"
Jiang Lin was much more straightforward, without saying a word, he just moved his foot and kicked them all on the ground.
After glancing at these people coldly, Jiang Lin walked straight in and kicked the door open.
Fang Ba was still lying on the bed, hugging left and right, two young women wearing only a bellyband.
Jiang Lin turned around and asked Wang San, "Do you have a knife?"
Wang San obviously didn't expect Jiang Lin to be so good at fighting. When Jiang Lin asked him for a knife, he felt that Jiang Lin wanted to kill Fang Ba directly.
Murder was a big deal after all, even if Fang Ba was a beast, there was not enough to die, Wang San persuaded him, "Why don't you ask clearly first, what if it is not the people arranged by Fang Ba."
Jiang Lin smiled, "What are you thinking? Do you think I'm going to kill him? I just want to make him become an eunuch, do you have a knife?"
Hearing Jiang Lin's casual words of wanting to make him became an eunuch, Wang San and the others suddenly felt chills and felt a little pain.
He didn't have a knife, but a little beggar who came with him had a small dagger, they didn't know where the little beggar picked it up, and the dagger was rusted badly.
Jiang Lin stared at the rusty dagger, feeling that the little beggar was crueler than him, at least he thought that the knife would cut it clean and neat, and the little beggar might want to make Fang Ba felt pained to death.
