"Seeing how pitiful you are, I might consider not killing you."
The minions were stunned, as if they had been hit by a huge surprise.
Lin Mengya paused and then said, "But you have to do something before I can convince myself to spare you, right?"
As soon as they heard that there was a chance to survive, these people immediately nodded wildly, as if even if she asked them to go to the sky to pick stars, they would immediately do it.
"Okay, you tie up these two people first and throw them into the yard. I will arrange the rest later."
When their lives were threatened, these so-called bandits became the most well-behaved lap dogs.
Zhang Mao was almost going crazy. This was his people and the territory he had conquered. Unfortunately, now, it was all in the possession of that bad couple.
Mr. Liu, on the other hand, was very quiet. I don't know whether he was angry or thinking about other things. He closed his eyes and said nothing.
Zhang Mao was so angry that he wanted to scold these traitors angrily, but unfortunately these traitors have become more effective now.
They tied the two people tightly and blocked their mouths with the dirty rag.
In order to sell well in front of her, I have long lost sight of the importance.
After both of them were thrown into the yard, there was already less air coming in and more air coming out.
"It's done, look, Heroine, do you have any other orders?"
The person who spoke first before has now subordinated himself to those two people.
Lin Mengya thought for a while and said with a smile, "Actually, the task I give you is not difficult. I want all of you to keep an eye on the merchants coming in and out of the Gong family fiefdom every day. How many people enter and how many come out every day?"
, is there anything strange happening in the caravan, I want to know about these."
Her request is not difficult, it can even be said to be extremely simple.
So when the minions heard this, they felt a little unbelievable.
They thought they were being asked to do something like die as cannon fodder.
"This is not difficult, but I don't know what you mean by this?"
Lin Mengya glanced at him, and the man suddenly trembled in fright.
Obviously what just happened has left an indelible shadow on him.
"May I have your name?"
"The younger one's name is Wang Tiezhu."
His real name is completely incompatible with his status as a bandit.
"Wang Tiezhu, I'm not asking you to rob, I'm just asking you to keep an eye on me. Of course, this is not in vain. As long as you do it for me honestly, the commission I will give you is comparable to that of a mountain
Bandit, you have the strength to not have the next meal. Besides, , even if the Gong family’s patrol team can’t catch up, if you run into a tough fight one day, you may not even know how you died.”
These words made Wang Tiezhu very sad.
When he was at home, his parents always despised him for being useless. Unexpectedly, he became a bandit, and he was also a useless bandit.
"But if you follow me, I can let you enjoy the delicious food and drink spicy food. But I have said something ugly in front of you. If any of you dare to have any objections, don't blame me for being unkind."
With a big stick in one hand and sweet dates in the other, Lin Mengya knew the temperament of these people well, and her words were cruel, but the benefits were also real.
She took out a stack of banknotes from her arms, and all the poor people in the room stared at the stack of paper in her hand with wide eyes.
"Yes, yes, I understand, little one, and I must follow the heroine properly."
Wang Tiezhu nodded repeatedly and almost knelt down in front of her and kowtowed a few times.
"Okay, I won't say much else. Just take this thing one by one. This medicine is specially made by me. You have to take the antidote every three months. If you don't take it, you will suffer from intestinal perforation and rupture.
And die."
She took out another small bottle. Long Tianyu saw it, but there was a smile hidden in his eyes.
What kind of poison was this? It was clearly the small hawthorn pills she used to comfort her two children.
But those minions were shocked. Of course they didn't want to eat it. Unfortunately, they couldn't help but get scared when they saw the black-faced evil god.
In the end, each of them had a grimace on their face and swallowed everything as if they were resigned to their fate.
Lin Mengya looked at it and told them how to deliver the news to her, then left some banknotes for them to clean up.
As for Zhang Mao and Mr. Liu in the courtyard, Long Tianyu called the secret guards and took them to the outskirts.
Lin Mengya knew that the people in the wine shop were just insignificant little characters.
If you want to get useful information, you have to dig it out from the mouths of these two people.
Hanging the person upside down on a big tree outside the city, Lin Mengya looked at the two people with their eyes closed and pretending to be dead, and grinned.
"I'll count to three. If you don't open your eyes, I'll have someone take off your pants. I'll let you bask in the sun properly. One, two, do it!"
Both of them were actually awake, and they immediately felt someone tugging on their pants.
Especially Mr. Liu. After all, he still thinks that he is a "scholar" and is disheveled in broad daylight.
He was killed as quickly as he came with a single blow.
He glared at the woman in front of him angrily, but found that the woman had a look of disdain on her face. It was obvious that she had been teasing him before.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!"
Mr. Liu acted like a dead pig and was not afraid of boiling water. He really thought that she was hopeless.
"Mr. Liu, why are you staring at me like that? No, it's because you feel like you haven't taken off your pants yet, so you're a little regretful?"
She was deliberately angry with this guy, but Long Tianyu, who was standing next to him, frowned.
"It's better not to take it off and die more slowly."
Lin Mengya was still playing with Mr. Liu when she heard the words coming from the side were mixed with sourness.
She grabbed Long Tianyu's hand from behind and shook it slightly, obviously trying to please this man and stop being so inexplicably jealous.
For a guy like Mr. Liu who is dry and doesn't have much meat, he doesn't need to take off his clothes to know that he doesn't have much to see.
But she didn't dare to say this unless she didn't want to get up tomorrow.
"Remove the rag from his mouth, fill him with some water, and wash his mouth. Otherwise, the rancid smell of the rag will make Mr. Liu's mouth sour as well."
She raised her lips and said with a sneer.
In fact, hanging upside down and pouring water into your mouth is also a form of punishment.
The water came out of the mouth and went directly into the nose. The pain of suffocation was not the slightest.
The secret guards brought by Long Tianyu have all undergone rigorous training.
They used local materials and took some smelly water from a small pond not far away. They drank it for a while and stopped. After a while, Mr. Liu's pretty face turned as pale as paper.
"Master Zhang, have you seen enough?"
Lin Mengya raised her eyebrows, but was not in a hurry to interrogate Mr. Liu.
She could see these two people clearly.
Mr. Liu is vicious and vindictive, and what he says may not be true.
Although this Zhang Mao is somewhat clever, he is greedy for life and afraid of death.
Her method was not only to keep Mr. Liu honest, but also to scare the monkeys.
Tell him that he had better be obedient, otherwise he will not get any good fruits.
Zhang Mao looked at Mr. Liu who was tortured to the point of death next to him, and the reluctance in his heart was almost gone.
"Whatever you want to ask, just ask."
"Okay, it seems that Master Zhang is a smart man. Let me tell you frankly, who is behind your robbery of the Gong family's caravan?" Zhang Mao's heart shrank. This was the deepest secret buried by the Fire Snake Gang. How could she know?
"Hmph! Do you really think I'm as easy to fool as your subordinates? Although the Gong family's caravans cannot be escorted by patrols, most of the caravans will hire guards. Just with these few words of yours,
Can we really stop this trade route? Those businessmen are not fools. How could they just hand over their hard-earned money to you without even seeking revenge?"
These words were like slaps on Zhang Mao's face one after another.
They thought they had hidden it well, and even thought that as long as they escaped this disaster, they could start over.
But I didn't expect that people would have seen through it long ago.
"Since you know, then what else do you want me to say?"
"I asked you to say it, and of course there is a reason for what I asked you to say. It seems that you still said that you have not learned to be honest. Forget it, Mr. Zhang often has this feeling of 'enlightenment'."
Lin Mengya said quietly, and Zhang Mao felt sick as soon as he saw the water with green algae floating in the hands of those people.
"I said! I said! Uncle Zheng asked us to do this!"
"Master Zheng? Which Master Zheng?"
"That's the nephew of the head of the Zheng family, Zheng Luxi!"
From the Zheng family?
This was something she didn't expect.
Since the Zheng family and the Gong family have adjacent fiefdoms, their relationship has never been too bad.
Especially the current head of the Zheng family, it is said that he is a gentle and kind-hearted person, and he has always had a good relationship with the Gong family.
But if the Zheng family wanted to attack the Gong family, they probably wouldn't resort to these despicable methods.
Moreover, the caravan running to the Gong family will also bring corresponding benefits to the Zheng family.
How could anyone push money outside?
But other than the Zheng family, who else has such power to make these businessmen willing to be exploited at all levels?
"Besides you, how many levels like the Fire Snake Gang are there in the Zheng family's fiefdom?"
"I don't know about this. Uncle Zheng is a powerful person, and we don't usually see him. However, I heard that more than half of the underground forces in the Zheng family fiefdom are related to Uncle Zheng. As for how many there are
, there must be no less than a dozen.”
No wonder, the prices of all the goods that pass through the Zheng family are always surprisingly high when sold in the Gong family's fiefdom.
It turns out that these businessmen are also forced to make a living.
If you want to get in and out, you have to be exploited so many times. As a result, no matter how high the price they sell, the profit is low.
