Chapter 364 Almost Invincible

In the evening, the sunset fell in the sky and the curfew was approaching. The originally bustling and noisy street soon became quiet.

Zhang Wu left Tianzhu and headed straight to the south of the city.

The Chenggou family is also a prisoner who has been passed down from three generations. His grandfather has been the prison leader for two years.

Unfortunately, the means of making money were not good, and the people were stingy and couldn't bear to pay tribute, so they were squeezed down.

By the time his generation finally improved, he became a powerful class.

Thinking about it, I know that the neighbors and relatives who looked down on "sloppy family" in the past can only show their awesome look, and take pride in stepping into the Cheng family, making Cheng Gou proud.

When you are young and successful, you have a lot of money in your hands. You have to pay for pornography, gambling, drugs and drugs.

The reason why the Sixth Uncle noticed him was that the Pacification Department would gather the major affairs of the world and the private affairs of officials from all over the capital into briefings and present them to the emperor every day.

The most core secret is not necessarily visible to Maliu.

But the private affairs of officials below the third or fifth rank are casually viewed.

After glanced at me, there was only the people around him who could attract so much news.

Zhang Wu passed Xuanhe Gate and walked along the main road to the outside of Chenggou's yard.

"Bang bang bang--"

Soon, a strange man came out of the door. Seeing Zhang Wu wearing a prison uniform, he asked politely:

"Brother, are you looking for Lord Cheng?"

"right."

"Don't you know? He moved to the north of the city half a year ago and sold the house to my house a few days ago."

Zhang Wu was stunned.

This house was where the Cheng family lived for generations. It has supported more than ten generations. According to the ancients' concept, how could the ancestral house be sold?

If you have money, it is understandable that you move to a wealthy place in the north of the city, after all, people go to a high place.

But if you don’t repair this ancestral home, you can shine your lintel and sell it. It’s even more hateful than changing to a wife when you have money. Someone is really open to his eyes.

"I'm sorry, brother."

Zhang Wu politely said goodbye, and followed the address given by the other party and headed north to the city.

As a group place for dignitaries and nobles, each house is worth more than 10,000 taels of silver, and the yard is also filled with three in and three out, which is very grand.

Zhang Wu met Cheng Gou as he wished.

But the magnificent Lord Ti Lao, who was still energetic last month, is now like a stray dog, with a pale face and haggard appearance, standing at the gate, watching a group of strong men throwing out the things in his house like garbage.

Cheng Gou did not stop him, which means that the house no longer belongs to him.

The ancestral home was sold, which means that he was so short of money that he couldn't even care about his ancestors. He could only save himself first and then find a way to redeem the ancestral home.

Zhang Wu walked up from behind and asked:

"How much money do you owe?"

Cheng Gou turned his head and looked at him. When he saw that it was him, he was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly:

"I owe nearly 50,000 taels."

“…”

Zhang Wu's eyelids trembled.

I worked in Tianzhu for six years and only saved 8,000 taels of silver. Your kid is really a big appetite.

"What are you owe to the bet?"

"yes."

Cheng Gou nodded.

Zhang Wuxin asked in shock:

"How many lost in total?"

"Sixty thousand yuan of cash, plus the 30,000 taels of this house bought at that time, it was also worth the other party. I finished 10,000 taels, but now there are still 50,000 left."

"That is to say, you lost 150,000 taels of silver in total?"

Zhang Wu took a breath of cold air and his scalp became numb.

Cheng Gou said:

"It's not a loss, but one night."

"What?"

Zhang Wu suddenly lost his voice.

The wind was a little cold at night. Cheng Gou shrank his neck and tightened his collar and said coldly:

"Mr. Huang likes to bet. In order to please him, I will occasionally go to the table. Who knows that I didn't know what crazy that night, I couldn't control myself. The main reason was that Mr. Huang kept urging him, so he became bigger and bigger...



Lord Huang is the fifth-rank official of the Ministry of Justice who promoted Cheng Gou to the ground.

Lord Huang made an indelible contribution to his current status.

However, success and failure are both Xiao He. Not only my share is mine, but the share you get is mine... The officialdom is even darker than the world, and there is no shortage of stories of destroying bridges across the river.

Zhang Wu sighed and asked:

"Is that Lord Huang going to be promoted and transferred?"

"How do you know, Brother Wu?"

Cheng Gou was surprised.

Everyone in the prison knew that Zhang Wu turned a blind eye to the outside world, devoted himself to practicing martial arts and making money, and never cared about matters in the officialdom.

Besides, the appointment of Lao Huang transferred has not yet been completed, but the money has been given, and it is almost certain that no one can know.

"You haven't reacted yet?"

Zhang Wu sighed and covered his face speechlessly.

Just as he was about to wake up the guy, suddenly a butler-like figure walked out of the yard. He glanced at Zhang Wu sideways, stood on the threshold and looked down at Cheng Gou with a arrogant look:

"Mr. Ti Lao, I forgot to tell you something. Because you owe a huge gambling debt and are unable to repay it, our gambling house has sued the Ministry of Justice. After the resolution of all the masters, you will be relieved of your position as the head of the prison. This is a document."

The bright Duke Wen of the Ministry of Justice was covered with a bright red seal and did not send it out from the official channel, but appeared in the hands of a butler.

"you……"

"You and Lord Huang..."

Cheng Gou's eyes were so bloody that he was red and his face turned red.

Finally, a mouthful of blood was spurted out, unable to withstand the blow, and fell straight down.

With an official position, he can still get the money back and make a fortune again.

Without this jail officer, everything will be over.

Zhang Wu hugged him and pinched his vagina. It took a while before Cheng Gou woke up, his eyes were dull and his face was ashen.

Zhang Wu said nothing, but just carried the child and went home.

This end is almost destined.

It would be fine if you have a background, but Lord Huang would not dare to be so unscrupulous.

But what you call background is that someone else is saving 100,000 taels of silver in his hand. Not to mention Lord Huang... I want to kill someone and intercept money!

Seeing that Cheng Gou wasted, his pains could not be relieved, and his heart was depressed, and his life would also be on the countdown.

All Zhang Wu could do was to comfort him.

As for his carelessness and ignorance, he stood up for him to ask Master Huang for an explanation and involved himself, and their relationship and friendship were not as good as that.

Everyone must learn to pay for their mistakes.

As a friend with ordinary relationships in the past two years, Zhang Wuneng did not turn a blind eye when he was wandering on the streets, but carried him home to take care of him. This was a kindness and righteousness.

After laying the person on the kang, cooking porridge, Zhang Wu advised:

"Dou'er, you're still young, you can't start over."

“No chance.”

Cheng Gou's voice was hoarse and full of despair.

Zhang Wu shook his head and asked:

"Do you think that with Lord Huang's corruption law, even the property of his subordinates and confidants is ruthless and unkind. How many years can this official be like?"

“…”

Cheng Gou was speechless. No matter how many years he could be, it seemed to have nothing to do with him.

Even if someone is not an official, he can still control himself based on his previous relationship network.

Zhang Wu laughed silently and asked:

"Do you know where the end of being an official?"

“???”

A ray of light suddenly lit up in Cheng Gou's dim eyes, as if hope of revenge was ignited.

Zhang Wu said:

"It's either the Heavenly Prison, or the Zhao Prison."

"When Lord Huang is promoted and left, you go to Shuntian Mansion to register and demote yourself to a lowly family."

"Go back to heaven, wait for him."
