Chapter 317 The Sorrow of Not Having Strength (Second Update)
Mu Nanjin was just showing off, but someone took it seriously.
After nightfall, countless dark shadows were scurrying around the captain's mansion, just to see who would be the unlucky one caught tomorrow. But they looked around and found no one who could count the names.
But it was a pain for the sleeping Jin Yiwei. One moment they heard someone shouting to catch the thief, the next moment they heard footsteps on the roof, and the next moment they felt someone sneaking into their house.
At first they would get up and take a look, but later they became numb when they found out that the thieves were here for the list.
No matter how noisy the other party was, they didn't bother to take a look. The only thing that dissatisfied them was that the thief was too aggressive.
Just come when you say you're coming. You can't come quietly and leave quietly. Don't let them find out that someone has sneaked in.
It just so happened that the people who came were not very good at qinggong, and they insisted on making some noise, which kept them from having a good night's sleep.
Early the next morning, everyone walked out of the room with dark circles under their eyes.
Mu Nanjin, who came out to have breakfast, saw Liu Qianhu and Yang Bo's eyes were black and blue, and asked, "Did you not sleep well last night?"
Liu Qianhu said angrily: "Didn't you hear someone sneaking in at night?"
Mu Nanjin: "No."
"No?" Liu Qianhu said angrily: "We have all heard it. You are better at kung fu than us. There is no reason why you didn't hear it."
Mu Nanjin did not open her mouth to explain, but said in her heart, "I have set up a barrier to block all sounds, so of course I can't hear it." 】
Liu Qianhu was furious. Although he didn't know what the barrier was, he was so angry when he thought that Mu Nanjin was the one who caused the incident and they were the ones who suffered.
He took a deep breath, changed the subject and asked, "Who are you planning to catch today?"
Mu Nanjin waited until he was full before saying, "Qian Gang."
"Qian Gang?" Liu Qianhu, who didn't react for a moment, was confused: "Who is Qian Gang? Which gang is he from?"
Li Zhenfu, who came in from the outside, said: "The Qian Gang is a gang that specializes in collecting protection fees from businessmen."
Liu Qianhu was ashamed: "It turned out to be this money gang. I thought it was a name. Mu Nanjin, didn't you only catch one person? How did you deal with the entire gang?"
Mu Nanjin asked: "Is there any difference?"
【Catching one person is catching, catching a group of people is also catching. Since they are all about catching, let’s catch them together. 】
Jin Yiwei: "..."
The words rhyme quite a bit.
But it’s hard to catch a group of people.
Ambassador Li Zhen said: "Although the Qian Gang does not have an alliance leader, there are five warriors in the Qian Gang in the Five Cities who are close to the strength of the Martial Lord, and there are even more Martial Kings of the first to third grades. In total, there are nearly 20 people. If we There is no chance of winning against them.”
Mu Nanjin glanced at him: "Envoy Li Zhen, what is the strength of the five-city captain's mansion?"
Li Zhenfu envoy sighed: "Except for me, who is a seventh-grade Wuzong, and my two close associates, who are first-grade Wuzong, everyone else is not at the level of a Wuzong."
Before the Five Kingdoms merged and before the martial arts people poured into the Five Cities, it was enough for the Five Cities Duwei Mansion to have only three Wuzongs in charge, but now...
Alas, just don’t say it.
Mu Nanjin: "..."
[No wonder I always look forward and backward when doing things, either because I am afraid of this or that. 】
[This is the sadness of not having strength. 】
Mu Nanjin looked at Liu Qianhu.
[Liu Qianhu was still smart. Knowing that he had no strength, he did not accept the promotion and transfer outside Beijing. 】
Liu Qianhu: "..."
Just call him smart and omit the following sentence because it's too hurtful.
Next, Mu Nanjin divided the Jin Yiwei from the Duwei Mansion and the Jin Yiwei brought by Liu Qianhu into four teams.
Mu Nanjin, Thunder Hammer and Wu Yuan each led a team, and the people in their teams were all warriors below the Wuzong level. Liu Qianhu and Li Zhenfu were responsible for leading the Jinyi Guards, who had higher martial arts levels. Then, each of the four teams is responsible for patrolling a street.
When everyone saw Mu Nanjin and Jin Yiwei coming to Shengping Street, they all looked around curiously.
"I heard that a female Jin Yiwei in the Captain's Mansion will arrest people based on everyone's votes today. That female Jin Yiwei should be the little girl wearing a small flag and flying fish uniform, right?"
"That's her. Don't look at her for being small, but she is so powerful. Even the ninth-grade martial arts masters are no match for her."
"She brought so many people today. I wonder who she wants to catch today?"
"Then it depends on who gets the most votes."
"But this is a commercial street. She is here to catch businessmen? Who will vote for businessmen?"
"Don't look at it, don't look at it, you haven't paid your protection fee for today yet."
At this time, two men interrupted everyone's conversation.
When the businessmen saw that the people from the Qian Gang came to collect protection fees again, a flash of anger flashed in their eyes, but they did not dare to be really angry. They immediately said with a smile, "You two gentlemen, I don't know how much the protection fee is today?"
"Ten taels of silver." One of the young men who took care of him said.
The merchant's face changed: "Didn't you only charge five taels of silver in the past? Why do you charge ten taels of silver today?"
The young man who took over the protection said angrily: "The five cities are now more chaotic than before. If you want to live in peace, please pay ten taels of silver quickly."
The businessman was very embarrassed: "We only earn more than ten taels of silver a day. If I give you ten taels, how do you want us to live?"
"That's none of our business, we're only responsible for protecting you."
It's said to be protection, but in reality it's just that they won't cause trouble after receiving the money.
The businessman was angry but dared not speak. Just as he opened the cash box, he heard a girl shouting coldly: "Catch them both."
Then, several Jin Yiwei rushed over and held down the person collecting the insurance premium. This scene stunned the businessmen.
The young man who took the protection said anxiously: "We are members of the Qian Gang. If you dare to catch us, the Qian Gang will definitely overthrow the Duwei Mansion."
"We dare to capture even the son of the alliance leader, why are we afraid of a money gang?" Mu Nanjin asked the blackmailed businessman: "How much protection money do they charge you?"
The businessman said blankly: "Ten taels."
Mu Nanjin turned to Jin Yiwei and said: "When the Qian Gang comes to ask for people, let them pay one thousand taels to redeem the people. Remember, it is one thousand taels per person."
"yes."
merchant:"……"
This is more cruel than the money gang.
After that, Mu Nanjin arrested hundreds of people who were under protection.
She said to the Jin Yiwei beside her: "Count how much 'silver' we have caught."
Jin Yiwei said: "One person is one thousand taels, ten is ten thousand taels, one hundred is one hundred thousand taels. There are one hundred and fifty-three people here, which is one hundred and fifty-three thousand taels."
Mu Nanjin nodded: "Just collect the money and help with a round number of 160,000 taels."
Jin Yiwei thought for a while and said: "We are catching minions, and the leader of the Qian Gang may not be willing to pay this sum of money."
Mu Nanjin is not worried about this matter at all: "As long as their boss shows up, I'm not afraid that they won't pay."
Just when Jin Yiwei was thinking about how Mu Nanjin was going to force the leader of the Qian Gang to pay money to redeem someone, the leader of the Qian Gang came. (End of chapter)
