In the capital, it was just getting dark, the cold wind was howling and snowflakes were flying.
In the square outside the train station, a four-wheeled carriage drove up, and a few beggars in tattered clothes got out of the car. These beggars very skillfully opened the carriage at the back of the four-wheeled carriage and gave a child who was only seven or eight years old.
Hold it down.
The child's eyes were stabbed, and his hands and feet were mutilated by humans. He was very miserable. The beggar put the child on the ground and placed a broken clay pot. When he was about to leave, he took another look and remembered yesterday's story.
I took away the hat given by a kind person.
This thing blocks the eyes and face of the little beggar. At the same time, it will be warmer with a hat, so that he does not look so pitiful.
The four-wheeled carriage quickly left, and a little further away put down another child with the same appearance, and also placed a clay pot on it.
In this way, children were put down one after another in crowded squares, streets, and stadium entrances.
The howling cold wind coupled with the falling snowflakes made these children, who could not move their arms and legs and had no eyes, shivering from the cold. People passing by could not bear to see them. From time to time, kind-hearted people came forward to give one or two a hand.
Some people would even take off their coats to cover these children.
"These people should all be executed in a hurry and the nine tribes should be annihilated!"
On the teahouse opposite the train station, Zhu Houzhao took a telescope and saw the scene in front of him clearly. He could not help but grit his teeth and clenched his fists.
He had seen the poverty of the Ming Dynasty and seen people starved to death, but this was the first time he had seen such a dirty and dark side.
These beggar gangs actually specialize in abducting children and then making them look like they are ghosts or ghosts, in order to win people's sympathy and beg.
It's simply heinous and vicious.
Killing people is just a nod, but these people are even more hateful than killing people.
"He deserves to be put to death!"
Liu Jin on the side also nodded solemnly.
Liu Jin is also a father himself and has his own children, so this kind of thing is the most despising thing.
Think about the children who were abducted in future generations. Their parents were heartbroken and spent their whole lives looking for their children. Most of them never heard from them and could never find their children again.
Even if they find their own children, they often no longer recognize themselves, but get closer to the adoptive parents who spend money to buy them. As for the traffickers, they live happily with the money they buy and sell the children, even if they are
If caught, the punishment is usually very light.
This makes human traffickers extremely rampant, to the point where some even dare to snatch children directly from their parents' hands and rob people directly in broad daylight.
Liu Jin has always felt that the criminal laws of later generations were too light in this regard, which is why human traffickers are rampant. Even if they are caught and sentenced, it usually only lasts for one or two years, and the fine is several thousand or tens of thousands of yuan.
What kind of punishment is this?
You must know that once a family loses its child, the entire family will basically collapse. I don’t know how many families will be destroyed as a result.
Looking at these poor and innocent children in front of him, Liu Jin felt that execution by Lingchi was really suitable for them.
"Xiao Jing, pass the order and close the net~"
Zhu Houzhao looked stern and said coldly to Xiao Jing who was following behind.
This time, in order to severely crack down on the evil force of beggar gangs, Emperor Hongzhi directly dispatched the force of factory guards and asked the factory guards to first find out the situation of beggar gangs in the entire capital and Tianjin.
It may seem pitiful to be ready to eat these in a pot, but in fact, he is the most hateful person in the world.
"Yes, Your Highness~"
Xiao Jing nodded quickly and nodded to Fanzi, the factory guard beside him. The people from Dongchang and Jinyiwei immediately started to take action.
Liu Jin and Zhu Houzhao looked carefully with telescopes.
I saw that the square of the train station was now crowded with many migrant workers waiting to return home.
In the past few days, Shuntian Prefecture Yin Linpan has done something. He organized a lot of official servants. The government servants came here to maintain order at the scene. At the same time, they also drove away the entertainers and the like. There were also official servants queuing up here to maintain order.
Those who jumped in line rushed to the back, which actually improved the order here a lot.
The begging children also attracted many people to watch. From time to time, people came forward to give a few pennies. The broken clay pots were already full. At this time, someone from the beggar gang was about to come forward to collect the money.
The guards were dispatched.
These factory guards, who were disguised as ordinary people, took action almost at the same time, catching these beggar gang members with lightning speed.
Of course, it's not just these beggars, there are also some people pretending to be beggars and stealing in gangs. Once the factory guards catch their eye, no one can escape.
Here in the huge square, in a very short period of time, members of the beggar gang were arrested one after another in various places. The people around them felt strange. It was not until the factory guards turned over the factory guard's sign that they knew it was the factory.
Wei's people are working on the case.
In places such as train stations, stadiums, racetracks, commercial streets, etc., which are crowded with people, exhausting scenes are constantly being staged. In a very short period of time, a large number of beggars were arrested.
At the same time, in a warehouse in the southern district of Beijing, many senior members of the Beggar Clan were gathering together, holding women in their arms, drinking and eating hot pot, and chatting happily.
"Brother, it's easy to make money here in the capital. You can't make even one hundred thousand taels of silver this year."
"That's because the people here in the capital are so rich. Some people just throw away more than a dozen taels of silver without batting an eye."
"It doesn't matter how much money we make in a year. Only those who open factories and commercial banks make money. I heard that some big factories can make millions of taels of silver a year."
"There's no comparison. They go on their sunshine road, and we go on our single-plank bridge. Anyway, as long as we have money, life will be easy."
"That's, that's~"
"Second brother, is your snake with a human face any good?"
"Yes, we have already killed more than a dozen people. If it doesn't work, just forget it."
"Of course. It's just a dozen dead chickens and ducks. There are plenty of them everywhere. When they're gone, just go get some and bring them back."
"You don't know that those who can perform publicly and play tricks in any place can earn dozens of taels of silver after one performance."
"Once I get this human-faced snake out, I will definitely make a lot of money. At that time, we will open another one in the capital specifically for watching all kinds of weird performances. What about the human-faced snake? Bao
We will create things like the Bottle Girl and plan to make money. By then, the tickets sold will be enough for us to just lie down and collect money every day."
"The second brother still has the brains. He was the one who said he would come to the capital in the first place."
"Yes, yes~"
Several people were drinking and eating meat while chatting about their future plans. In the cages nearby, dozens of children were shivering from the cold and their eyes were dim from hunger.
They use this method to torture these children, calling them tame and obedient. They dare not react at all. Even if their biological parents are around, these children may not dare to recognize them.
After that, these children were trained to become thieves, specializing in stealing things. Some were made miserable and sent out to beg, while others were like the children in several jars nearby.
The hands and feet were cut off and placed in a small jar, leaving only a small head outside; others had snake skin glued to the body and a fake snake tail attached to make it.
A snake with an adult face, a bottle girl, etc.
"Bang~"
At this time, with a loud noise, the warehouse door was pushed open hard, and hundreds of factory guards rushed in at once.
Some of these people had no time to react, some quickly wanted to escape, and some picked up their swords and tried to kill them, but all were in vain.
In just a few minutes, they were all taken down and bundled tightly.
"Who are you?"
The leader of the Beggar Clan, Qiao Feng (cough, I don’t want to think of other names, I hope it doesn’t remind you of His Majesty Jin Yong’s leader Qiao) struggled hard and looked at the people in front of him with horrified eyes.
"Who are we?"
At this time, accompanied by a cold snort, Zhu Houzhao and Liu Jin walked over.
Look at the leader of the Beggar Gang in front of you, then look at the children locked in cages in the entire warehouse, as well as the innocent children who have been tortured into becoming human beings.
"Pry open his mouth, don't let him bite his tongue and commit suicide."
Zhu Houzhao's eyes were red, like a bloodthirsty beast. Looking at these people from the Beggar Clan, he wished he could kill them all right now.
"Good and evil will be rewarded in the end, and your retribution has come!"
Liu Jin looked at the scene in front of him and really couldn't bear to watch it.
It's too awful!
Especially those children who were tortured and mutilated by farmers, I really couldn't bear to look at their miserable images. Looking at the people in the beggar gang in front of me, it was as if they were seeing demons in the world.
"Everyone, everyone, we have something to discuss, we have something to discuss~"
"If we take your territory, you can clear the road."
"If I have been offended in any way, we are willing to kowtow and apologize. We have money, and we are willing to give it."
Qiao Feng looked at the murderous people in front of him, and when he heard their words again, he immediately kowtowed and apologized.
He was really worried this time. He had never encountered anything like this before. He was wiped out even in his nest without any sound. They didn't seem to want to give him any pleasure.
"Silver, you'd better keep your money and take it to the underworld for use."
Zhu Houzhao said coldly: "I will not let you die easily even if I have done all the bad things and lost my conscience!"
