"Yes, I am very rich. My legal income every month ranges from a few hundred taels to a thousand taels." Chen Guanlou is not showing off, but making a realistic statement. "How is that possible!" The other party was obviously stimulated and couldn't believe it. Chen Guanlou sneered, "Where are you in the prison? Do you think it is the same as the local government prison? You are totally wrong. The people detained in Tianlao are all numerous officials of the imperial court, and all of them are either rich or noble. They have to maintain their dignity in prison and have various needs. The amount of money they consume every day is an astronomical figure for ordinary people. I only need to draw a little money legally, even if I have to share the profits with the jailers below, in one month my income will be higher than the salary of a high-ranking official in the court. Did you hear me clearly? I'm talking about legal income. As for gray income, it is even more unclear. You see, you scolded me for being a self-destructive person and living in a prison as a jailer, but you didn't know that while I was enjoying life, you, as a master of martial arts, were working as a lackey to earn a few taels of silver. Seriously, you might as well fuck with me. I guarantee that you will buy a house in the capital within one year and marry a beautiful girl as your wife. " "Has anyone ever told you that you are very good at confusing people?" The other party's mood returned to calmness without any disturbance at all. Chen Guanlou chuckled softly, "You are not the first to say this. I would venture to guess that the senior is extremely talented, but his background is a bit inferior. As a martial arts master, he is also inseparable from firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea. It is indispensable in the training process. The feeding of high-quality medicinal materials is indispensable for the collection of martial arts secrets, and there may be a family to support.
Without a good family background, you can only rely on the strong to earn money and find a future for your family. However, people go to higher places. If there is a better place to go, seniors may wish to consider it. There is no shame in making money, no shame in being a jailer. At worst, he could hide his name and change his identity to work as a jailer in Tianlao. He would go to and from get off work on time every day, earn some money, and live a happy life. It's still better than your current job. No matter how bad the environment in the Tianlao is, it is still better than sleeping in the open air every day and running around outside every year. Besides, the job of jailer in Tianlao can be passed on to descendants, which is equivalent to an iron rice bowl. There is no need to worry about getting involved in party disputes in the court, let alone the change of dynasty. No matter which dynasty or generation, we can't do without the prison, let alone the jailer. As long as you are careful and don't be fooled by those criminals, you will definitely enjoy happiness in this life with the skills of your seniors. " "I'm moved by what you said." "Since I'm moved, why not just do it and take action directly. The two of us join forces and control the entire Tianlao together from now on. The money will flow into our pockets. How about that?" "Not at all!" The other party laughed softly. "You asked me before who Ning Zecheng is and who Erdan is? As a member of the Chen family, you don't even know that these two people are actually the same person." "Should I know?" "Huh? Then why did you take this mission? I have never heard that Tianlao has a tradition of escorting prisoners on business trips." "You have already said that I am a member of the Chen family. How can I refuse the order from the Hou Mansion? With the Hou Mansion behind me, even if I don't use the banner of the Hou Mansion, when people hear that my surname is Chen, they will consciously give me a favor. It’s convenient. I have taken advantage of the Hou Mansion, so I have to run errands for the Hou Mansion. As a person, you can only live long if you come and go. " Chen Guanlou seemed to be talking about family affairs, and he spoke in commonplace terms. He wasn't so talkative before, it was all a professional fault. I have been dealing with those prisoners for a long time and have learned nothing else. I have accumulated a lot of truths. From time to time, I will come up with a truth and explain it to the prisoners who can't think about it, so as to relieve their mental stress. Since he became a warden, everyone said that the suicide rate among prisoners has dropped significantly. The work of mental counseling still needs to continue. I hope the other jailers, all of whom are illiterate and only think about gambling, can give me guidance. Talking and talking may actually stimulate the mentally depressed prisoner to commit suicide. He had to do the guidance work in person. Tonight, if he could convince the martial arts expert on the opposite side, he would be really awesome. Of course, this is just fantasy. A person with eighth-level strength must be a person with an extremely strong will. Even if you are interested and curious, it is impossible to make an immediate decision. This kind of people never lack caution and caution, and they take every step step by step. Whoever survives to the end will be the big winner. "If you want to know who Ning Zecheng is, you can only go back and ask the Marquis Mansion. I can't possibly tell you." "Then can you tell me why you want to rob this person?" “Because this person has value.”
"How much value?" The other party remained silent for a moment, and then suddenly asked, "My little friend, what time of year is it now?" Chen Guanlou:...... The other party was definitely not simply asking about the season. Sure enough, the other party continued to talk to himself: "Don't you see that the world is about to be in chaos? The world is about to change. If you ask me what the value of Ning Zecheng is, then I tell you, he has changed the world and conquered cities. The value of it. Whoever can get it will be even more powerful and invincible." "Could it be that you are working for King Chu? Are you from King Chu?" Chen Guanlou made a bold guess. "No! I am not from the King of Chu." The other party firmly denied it. Chen Guanlou felt that the other party was not lying, there was no reason, it was just an intuition. "How can this Prime Minister Ning Zecheng be so virtuous? He is not an immortal descending to earth, so how can he have the ability to change the world?" Hearing this, the other party clearly let out a sarcastic laugh, "In addition to soldiers and horses, war also requires generals and commanders. A good commander can withstand thousands of troops and turn defeat into victory in desperate situations." "You mean, Ning Zecheng is a rare commander in the world?" "Yes!" "Why have I never heard of his name?" "Someone deliberately concealed the past, so you young people naturally don't know. Okay, now you understand the value of Ning Zecheng, you should also understand why I want to find this person." "But there is no such person in my team." "What if there is?" "I can't give it to you. Unless you can beat me." The other party was silent. When masters fight, one move is enough to weigh each other's weight. Tonight, no one can do anything to anyone. Chen Guanlou can't do anything to the other party, and it is obvious that the other party can't do anything to him, so the situation will be deadlocked, and there will be an opportunity to chat on the treetop tonight. Chen Guanlou has the opportunity to show his ability to deceive people. "Since you are not the King of Chu's man, why do you insist on this mission target called Ning Zecheng. If you are short of money, I will give it to you." To show his sincerity, Chen Guanlou took out a silver note of one thousand taels from his arms on the spot. A jailer casually took out a thousand taels. In this world, how can I go to seek justice? Is the prison really that profitable? "One thousand taels, to make friends. You are the first friend who makes me spend so much money, can you give me some face?" "I am not short of money." "Yes, yes, you are not short of money. I am shameless and want to spend money to be friends with you. How about you be a big man and don't bear grudges, and accept my dirty money reluctantly?" The other party was silent. Chen Guanlou left the banknote decisively.
