Chen Guan went downstairs to the prison and walked through the cells. Now he looks suspicious to everyone. Some of these prisoners are open-minded and can think broadly. Some people are narrow-minded and love to get into trouble. Sometimes if you don't deal with a look, it may lead to a deadly feud. Thousands of people have different faces. He thought he was a bit aggressive when asking for money, but he was usually considerate and polite to these prisoners. I just want to have a good relationship and be reinstated as an official in the future, so don't worry about the hatred and grievances in Tianlao. People who do big things and care about the same jailer have neither structure nor magnanimity. It's just hard to guarantee that there are people who are extremely narrow-minded and will keep every grudge and hatred firmly in mind and won't give up until they get back on their feet. He squinted at the prisoners in the cell, observing their expressions. After passing Gao Shiliu's cell door, he suddenly stopped and asked, "Your housekeeper hasn't come to visit you in the past few days?" Gao Shiliu was unshaven and looked very depressed, but he was in good condition. "Things in the house are busy and we cannot do without the housekeeper, so he cannot come to visit me every day. Isn't Prisoner Chen busy today?"
"I haven't been busy these days. It's suddenly quiet up there. I heard that His Majesty is in a good mood recently. It seems that the war in the north has made progress." "The Marquis of Pingjiang is very powerful. As long as he is here, the rebels can easily be captured. When he frees up his hands, he can go south and destroy the King of Chu. No wonder His Majesty is in a better mood." Gao Shiliu said. Chen Guanlou laughed, "Do you think His Majesty will let the Marquis go south?" Dream on. The soldiers and horses in the north and south are all under the control of the great master. The old emperor may not be able to sleep well. If nothing unexpected happens, Chen Guanfu, who is in the south, will be transferred back to the capital soon. This is the basic method of serving as an emperor. It was impossible for father and son to control the military forces in the north and south at the same time, lest they become a serious problem for the imperial court. The courtiers will definitely support the old emperor's decision. "Of course...of course..." Gao Shiliu suddenly felt a little unsure. Chen Guanlou sneered, "You should just do business honestly. It's right not to pursue an official career." Gao Shiliu looked a little embarrassed, "I just spoke quickly and didn't think deeply. I can't come back to my senses now." Chen Guanlou laughed at him, "You said at the beginning that you would be able to get out of jail within a month or two at most. Do you still think so now?" Gao Shiliu became more and more embarrassed. After enduring it, he still couldn't hold it back, "Do I really have to go to jail for a few years?" "It won't happen in a few years. The situation in the DPRK is changing rapidly. Maybe you can go out during the Chinese New Year." "I hope so! Prisoner Chen, I want to eat roast duck. The roast duck from Laojinfang is the most authentic." "If you have money, you will have roast duck. If you don't have money, there will be no roast duck. I will ask someone to check your account and see how much money is left on it." "I still want to drink, it's best to warm it up." "You ask for so much." Chen Guanlou was disgusted. These young men are in jail, but everything else is fine. They are not as careless as those old officials, but they are pretentious! This and that. In addition to Gao Shiliu, there is also Zhang Wenfu. Maybe Zhang Yushi had overcome the crisis, maybe Mrs. Zhang finally remembered her son who was in prison, and the Zhang family sent another sum of money. Zhang Wenfu finally enjoyed the freedom he had dreamed of.
The backyard that was originally cleaned up for Taifu's recreation is now being used as waste. As a result, the prisoners have one more option to escape, but the price is a bit expensive. The rich don't care. A hundred or two breaks, one hour at a time, is comparable to robbery. But being able to bask in the sun, enjoy the wind, see the blue sky and white clouds, and drink tea and eat snacks is worth a hundred taels. After Zhang Wenfu enjoyed the exercise, his mental state improved visibly, and his gastrointestinal problems also improved significantly. Passing by Xie Changling's cell. The other party asked him, "Can I get a discount on the price of the exposure?" Chen Guanlou turned to look at the other party, "Master Xie also wants to show off?" "On a windy day, I want to go out and enjoy the breeze." "It's very hot outside now, but it's cooler inside the prison. And the price of ventilation is not cheap." "Is there any discount?" Xie Changling said impatiently. Chen Guanlou chuckled and said, "There is no discount. All prisons of A-shaped and large sizes are treated equally. Unless you are a Taifu or a prince, that is a different treatment. However, we provide free tea and snacks." "Tea foam?" Xie Changling asked with a hint of disgust. Although it was a question, the tone was very sure. Chen Guanlou looked confident, "It's good to have free tea. Don't be picky. Besides, Tianlao is poor! You always say that our jailers are greedy, but you don't know that 99% of the money we collect We all have to hand it over. We are doing disgusting things with a little bit of money, and we have to bear all the infamy. Thank you, sir, if you can be considerate, don't talk about money and hurt your feelings." "Why don't you talk about feelings?" "Talk about feelings and hurt money." Chen Guanlou said righteously, "Talk about business. Mr. Xie, if you don't need this little money, why do you need to worry about everything like a businessman in the market?" "My money doesn't come from the strong wind." Xie Changling said depressingly, "How rich do you think I am? All the little possessions I have saved over the years have gone into the pockets of your jailers. You must plan carefully. ” Chen Guanlou sneered, "Mr. Astounding.” "Who are you listening to?" Xie Changling's face darkened. "Our Xie family is a family that has been passed down from generation to generation by farming and studying. We have some businesses under our name, but they are all insignificant small businesses. The main income is still from farming. Chen Yuli is from the capital and has never farmed. He may not know that the income from farming is not only limited, but also depends entirely on the mood of God. If there is drought, flood, insect disaster, bird disaster, the production will be reduced that year. And grain cannot be sold at will, it must be saved. Tell me, how much money can you have. One hundred taels is enough to buy several acres of high-quality irrigated fields in the countryside. Irrigated fields, in the countryside, there is nothing. It is more valuable than watering the fields. Do you understand the deep meaning of this? " Chen Guanlou smiled with his head down, and a sneer flashed in his eyes, "I don't understand! I only know that Lord Xie's ability to avoid the important and focus on the trivial is amazing. If you think that our jailers are all ignorant people, then you have made a wrong calculation. The jailers in the prison don't know how to read or understand the truth, but they know how to get information and find out the family background of the prisoners. Your Xie family's business has already reached the capital, and you tell me that farming and reading are passed down from generation to generation, and that it is difficult to make money. Who are you trying to fool? Lord Xie, we have been together for so long, and it's not good for you to fool people like this. "
