"Master Tang, do you really treat us like pigs? We sold ourselves to the Tang family, and when the time comes, you will also blackmail our wages. What a plan." Tang Jun sneered.
"You won't believe anything I say now. Otherwise, you can take someone to my island, Koh Samui, to have a look first. If you are not satisfied, you can go back to your prison, and Tang will never stop you." Tang Wen
said.
"That's your territory, once we go there we can't come back.
If you resist, you may lose your life.
When the time comes, if you make up any excuse and say you were killed by pirates, wouldn't we die unjustly?" Tang Jun said.
"Where is your courage to besiege the Li family's old house? There are hundreds of you, you can still call some notaries to go with you.
By then, in broad daylight, can we kill you all?
Even if I have a title, would I dare to kill hundreds of people?
Although the Chu government did not handle some things properly, it was not so stupid.
What's more, it's just buying some slaves. If you have money, why don't you worry about not having slaves?
Do I deserve to take such a risk for you?
You are not precious, Tang Jun, you think too highly of yourself." Tang Wen stood up with a sneer.
"Can I find someone else to notarize it?" Tang Jun asked.
"Of course, you can find anyone to go with you," Tang Wen said.
"Okay, I will take my brothers and sisters to go with you." Tang Jun nodded.
"Don't worry, even if you don't agree, I will let you come back with a full meal and I will never stop you." Tang Wen said.
"Can I go out now?" Tang Jun asked.
"Okay, you can contact the craftsmen of Qianbafang immediately after you go out, and they will be sent to Koh Samui tomorrow morning." Tang Wen nodded.
"Okay, I'll come find you when the time comes." Tang Jun nodded and followed Tang Wen directly out.
Of course some procedures have been done here, and with Tang Wen's guarantee, Yang Yun will certainly not stop him and let him take Tang Jun out temporarily.
"Let's split up and come find me when the time comes." Tang Wen gave him his contact address.
"Aren't you afraid that I will run away?" After walking a few steps, Tang Jun suddenly turned around and said.
"It's your blessing to be able to follow me. If you don't want the blessing, you have to run away.
At that time, you will become a wanted criminal and your life will be worse than that of a dog on the run.
I was just fined some money by the government, and it was you who suffered the loss, not me." Tang Wen said calmly.
Tang Jun looked at Tang Wen deeply and then strode away.
"Sir, that Tang Wen met with Li Dawang at Wangjiang Tower in the morning. He went to the prison in the afternoon and actually guarantored Tang Jun to come out." A thin man quietly entered the Fang family compound. This person's name was Sun Fei.
The owner of this place is Fang Qiang, one of the top gentry in Yanling County. Sun Fei is the leader of the nursing home hired by Fang Qiang.
"What does he want to do?" Fang Qiang asked with a straight face.
"I can't get into the prison. I don't know what they are talking about. It must be up to no good." Fei shook his head.
"That guy seems to be trying to ruin our business. His slave Qiao Xiao has already gone in. Why don't we find Kang Qingfeng again and get the man named Tang in too." Butler Luo Qing said fiercely.
"This man is different, he has a title.
Although he is only a small third-class baron, he is still a nobleman of Chu State.
There is no absolute certainty that the government will not touch him at will." Fang Qiang shook his head.
"The government doesn't dare, so why does Six Gates dare not? Don't say that he is a small third-class baron. Even if the governor messes up, he will still be arrested." Luo Qing said.
"Wait a little longer, if it doesn't work, look for Kang Qingfeng again.
The reason why Qiao Xiao was arrested was because Kang Qingfeng owed our Fang family a favor back then, and the favor was repaid after Qiao Xiao was arrested.
At that time, it will not be easy to find him again.
Unless we have evidence or something else." Fang Qiang said.
"Don't Kang Qingfeng like silver?" Luo Qing snorted.
"Who doesn't like money, but a little money can't send someone like Kang Qingfeng away.
If it costs 23,000 taels, what's the point of lowering the price for Chibafang?
By then, it won’t be cost-effective to still owe Kang Qingfeng a favor." Fang Qiang shook his head.
Unexpectedly, Tang Jun was really not slow in doing things. In the evening, Tang Jun came to find him. He said that everyone was gathered and urged Tang Wen to hurry up all night.
Of course Tang Wen was more than happy, so he set off overnight to return to Koh Samui.
"I'm back to Koh Samui. What does that guy want to do?" After receiving the news from his subordinate Lin Xiong, another buyer Liu Hesen also looked confused.
"How could I know?" Lin Xiong shook his head.
"Ignore it, it's better for us to go back." Liu Hesen waved his hand.
Samui Island is seventy or eighty miles away from Yanling City, and it takes half a day to walk.
However, these craftsmen walked very slowly and arrived at 2:30 in the morning.
And Tang Wen had arranged in advance for Bu Feng to go back quickly and turn on all the lights in advance, so hundreds of people arrived at the camp.
Seeing the bright lights, everyone was dumbfounded.
They rubbed their eyes desperately, thinking that they were either dreaming or that Tang Jun was also in a daze for a few minutes.
"Look, there are so many luminous pearls."
"This Mr. Tang is really rich."
"Is the night pearl so bright?"
"Otherwise, what is that?"
…
As we approached the village, we saw a mighty patrol with swords, a barbed wire fence outside, and someone on the watchtower holding a bow and a child to guard the village.
Each one of them was even more stunned, and their mouths were watering.
"Master, go back to the village and open the gate." Ge Ziyun shouted, and immediately, the gate creaked open.
"Master, you are back." Zhan Junru and Gu Hanyan came to greet them.
"Jun Ru, notify the kitchen immediately and light a fire to make rice." Tang Wen said.
"Okay, I'll go get my mother up right away." Zhan Junru nodded and hurried away.
Soon, the lights in each tent were turned on, and a dozen women hurried into the kitchen and got busy.
"Dong Wen, after walking for such a long time, we have sweated a lot. Everyone is tired and dirty. Everyone is given a towel, and Tang Jun will take him to the bathroom to wash his face and wipe away the sweat." Tang Wen arranged.
Dongwen nodded, discussed with Tang Jun, and made arrangements in an orderly manner.
After walking into the public bathroom made of iron sheet alloy, everyone was shocked when they saw the neat rows of porcelain basins and a large mirror.
"This is called a faucet. You turn it on to turn it on, and turn it in the opposite direction to turn it off." Zhan Dongwen and the others were responsible for the reception and taught these ancients step by step.
"Brother Zhan, why didn't you see the latrine? Then why do you poop?" Tang Jun looked at it and asked.
"Yeah, there's no latrine or bamboo chips. How can I wipe my butt after pooping?"
Because people in the Chu state basically use finger-width thin bamboo slices when going to the toilet. After defecating, they scrape with a bamboo knife. Of course, the scraping will not be clean.
But paper is too expensive, who can afford it?
Only rich people use paper or cloth to wipe.
"From what you can see, this is called a squat toilet, but it's actually our former latrine.
After using the toilet, press the button and water will flush out.
Use this kind of straw paper to wipe your butt so that...
Also, urinate here, just poop, the water will keep flowing and it won’t stink.” Zhan Dongwen and his gang became urination teachers again.
"This place doesn't stink at all. Moreover, it smells very good. How can feces and urine smell so good?" someone asked.
"Master Tang asked someone to put incense," Zhan Dongwen said.
"Incense is placed in the toilets, and only rich families put them there. How much does it cost for such a big toilet?"
"Master Tang just wants everyone to live a happy life. He doesn't care about money."
"Where does this water come from? Underground?"
"There are pipes next to it, and this is just a public restroom. There is also a canteen and bathroom, which is bigger over there..."
…
This group of people were asking a hundred thousand whys, and Zhan Dongwen and the others acted as commentators.
Of course, all this was arranged deliberately by Tang Wen.
The purpose is to let this group of people see how comfortable life is in the Tang family, so that they will willingly join the Tang family.
Suddenly, the bathroom became lively, and they were queuing up to experience it.
After going to the toilet and washing their faces, they handed the towel stickers to Zhan Dongwen one by one.
"No need to return it, Mr. Tang said, I gave it to you." Zhan Dongwen said.
"Thank you, Master Tang." Suddenly, hundreds of people cheered.
Usually they mostly use rags to wipe their faces, but have you ever seen such a useful towel?
This thing is high-end, made of soft material, and so easy to use, it must be worth a lot of money.
Below, everyone carefully collected the hair stickers, and you will be blown away when you get home.
"Let's eat!" Zhan Junru shouted as everyone was ushered into the canteen.
Looking at the neatly arranged wooden tables with bright paint, everyone's eyes widened and they didn't dare to sit down.
However, when they saw the fragrant fried shredded pork, pork bone soup, and crystal clear white rice on the table, everyone salivated again.
