Chapter 50 Yes, yes, you need to pay more!
Hou San was frightened. He struggled to get up and knelt on the ground to beg for mercy: "Hero, show mercy. Hou San doesn't know where he offended the hero. If the hero wants money..."

"Shut up!" Ah Man said bitterly, "Look carefully and see who I am?"

Hou San stared for a while... He really couldn't remember. After all, he had kidnapped too many women. How could he remember so many?

But he was not stupid, and he vaguely guessed Aman's identity. She was probably the woman he had kidnapped and sold into a brothel.

So he quickly said: "Girl, I'm all smart, I'm willing to compensate you 100 taels... No, no, no, 200 taels, please be kind to me..."

He is smart and knows that life is far more important than money.

If the money is gone, you can make it again, but if your life is gone... then it is really like the wind blowing away the egg shells, and the wealth is gone and people are happy.

Ding Xiu said coldly: "You have ruined this girl's life. Life would be worse than death... You have to pay more!"

Hou San was stunned for a moment, then he felt happy and said hurriedly: "Yes, yes, yes, you have to add, you have to add money, three hundred, how about 300 taels?"

Ding Xiu raised his leg and kicked.

Hou San said with a sad face: "Four... 400 taels... no matter how much it is, I really can't get it out."

This kid did make a lot of money, but he also had brothers who spent money lavishly on weekdays and didn't save much money.

Ding Xiu slowly pointed out a finger: "1000 taels..."

"Ten taels?"

Hou San exclaimed with his eyes widened.

He couldn't get so much money even if he pawned it off as underwear.

Unexpectedly, Ding Xiu added another sentence: "I'm talking about... 1000 taels of gold."

Now Monkey Three finally understood, where is the need for money?He was clearly playing a trick on him.

For a moment, anger arose in his heart, and evil grew in his guts. He jumped up suddenly, and at the same time, he pulled out a short knife from his waist and stabbed Ding Xiu: "I will fight with you!"

"boom!"

Ding Xiu slapped Hou San down on the spot and turned him into a dog.

Then he raised his feet and stepped on his vest, turned his head and said to Aman: "Okay, girl, now you can take revenge and complain."

"Don't...1000 taels of gold, I'll give it, I'll give it..."

Monkey Three is anxious to save his life, so how can he take care of so much?Let’s start with a delaying strategy.

"go to hell!"

Ah Man bent down, took the knife with both hands, aimed at Hou San's neck, and stabbed it suddenly.

"what……"

I don’t know if she missed the target or did it on purpose. However, it didn’t hit the vital point. The pain caused Monkey Three to scream and struggle violently.

However, Ding Xiu stepped on his vest, and it was useless no matter how hard he struggled.

"Beast, bastard, no descendants..." Ah Man cursed and kept swinging the knife, his face splattered with blood.

Until Hou San lay motionless in a pool of blood, she was still slashing with her knife.

Ding Xiu sighed, took a few steps back, and let her vent.

If she hadn't been abducted by Hou San, she would have been married long ago, and her family would have lived an ordinary life. How could she be living like this without humans and ghosts?

Having vented his grievances, Ah Man dropped the knife, walked up to Ding Xiu and saluted: "My benefactor, please pay homage to me!"

Ding Xiu raised his hand: "Girl, you don't need to be polite."

Ah Man wasn't stupid either, he knew that Ding Xiu had to have a reason for helping her like this.

So I couldn't help but ask: "I wonder what the slave family can do to help the young master?"

Ding Xiu subconsciously observed his surroundings, and then said: "To be honest with you, girl, I have a sworn feud with the Fan family, the master of Butler Tang.

However, the Fan family is rich and powerful, has contacts with the government, and has hired many experts to protect the hospital. It is difficult for me to take revenge on my own. "

Hearing this, Ah Man couldn't help but look surprised: "Young Master is so good that he can't avenge you, so what can the slave family do to help?"

Ding Xiu smiled: "Revenge does not necessarily require taking action personally. As far as I know, the Fan family has been secretly trading food, iron and other supplies with the Jurchens. Do you know about these things?" Ah Man nodded: " It seems that many people here know..."

Hearing Aman say this, Ding Xiu couldn't help but look pleased.

It seems that we have come to the right place. Although the Fan family, Tian family and other profiteers are secretive, there is such a mixed bag here, how can they hide it?It's almost an open secret.

I'm afraid many ministers in the court also know that it's just that the eight profiteers are very wealthy and are willing to use money to pave the way. I don't know how many people have been dragged into the water.

Among them, there must be many Donglin Party members.

Ding Xiu knew very well that if the situation were the same as before, Han Kuang and others would never support him in investigating this matter thoroughly, because that would also harm the interests of the Donglin Party.

But now that things have changed and the Donglin Party has regained power, some people will naturally be selfish and seek more benefits for themselves and their cronies.

As a result, internal strife will inevitably arise.

Relatively speaking, Han Kuang is a relatively upright person, and he also wants to assist the emperor in governing the world.

However, the treasury is empty, and it is difficult for a clever daughter-in-law to make a meal without rice.

If we really verify the evidence of the eight major profiteers' collaboration with the enemy and examine their family assets, what an astonishing amount of wealth will it be?I'm afraid it can cover the taxes of the imperial court for ten years.

However, Han Kuang also told Ding Xiu that in view of the great influence of the eight major Shanxi merchants such as Fan, Wang, and Jin, in order to avoid misunderstandings among the people of the world, sufficient ironclad evidence must be secretly collected.

"Aman, what you have to do is very simple, that is, help me find out the details about Butler Tang, the more detailed the better.

But remember, don't act too deliberately to avoid making people suspicious. "

Ah Man smiled: "Don't worry, young master, the slave family knows how to do it, and Butler Tang has a subordinate who often comes to the slave family."

"Really? That would be better..."

Back at the inn, Ding Xiu immediately called Pei Lun and Su Niang into the room to talk about the matter.

After hearing this, Pei Lun couldn't help but look pleased: "Great, since Butler Tang can stay here for a long time to preside over the overall situation, it shows that he has won the trust of the Shen family.

As long as we find out the details of this guy and open a breakthrough from him, why worry about not getting evidence? "

"Yes!" Ding Xiu smiled and nodded: "As long as the deal between them and the Jurchens is confirmed, it will be a crime of collaboration with the enemy and the country, which is equivalent to rebellion.

Once the irrefutable evidence is in hand, I will see who in the government dares to stand up for them. "

Pei Lun showed a signature smile that was harmless to humans and animals: "Whoever comes forward will be an ally..."

"Yes, Brother Pei is the best at this kind of thing!"

"Jie Jie Jie..."

The two cherished each other and smiled at each other.

Su Niang was speechless, wondering whether she should try to stay away from these two perverts in the future.

When the discussion was almost complete, Pei Lun stood up and left.

Su Niang was about to go back to her room, but Ding Xiu said, "Su Niang, I have something else to tell you."

"what's up?"

Su Niang sat down again.

"I know that you are actually not happy these days."

Su Niang smiled self-deprecatingly: "Does it matter to adults whether I am happy or not?"

"Of course it's important... Maybe you think I'm taking advantage of you, feeling like you've just escaped from the wolf's claws and entered the tiger's den again, right?"

"It's not that exaggerated. You are different from them. What you do seems to be more meaningful."

Ding Xiu nodded happily: "It's good if you can understand this."

"But there's one thing I don't understand. Are you really doing all this just to deal with the Jurchens?"

Ding Xiu thought for a while and replied: "It's not just that, what I want to do is more meaningful than you imagine..."
