Prison cell with the word "W" is the inner prison of the prison island and is extremely tightly guarded. Important criminals such as bandits from the Qu family and bandit leaders colluded with the Qu family to attack Hekou are all imprisoned here.
The walls of the prison cell were supported by large rosin candles, which were burning brightly in the quiet night, filling the cell with the aroma of rosin.
"Bah!" Qu Wuyang was hunched over. He was puzzled by the heavy shackles weighing more than thirty kilograms on his neck and the heavy shackles weighing more than thirty kilograms on his feet for several days. He was also imprisoned in a standing cage during the interrogation.
Even the Iron Man had to be tortured until he was reduced to human form. At this time, Lin Fu asked someone to release him from the standing cage. He still had the strength to spit at Lin Fu and cursed fiercely, "Don't forget that your hands are full of music."
The blood of the family’s children…”
"You are allowed to let the Qu family shed other people's blood, but others are not allowed to let others loose the blood of your Qu family?" Lin Fu slapped Qu Wuyang's face with the scabbard, then pressed the scabbard against Qu Wuyang's chin, and sneered.
, "I think you are a living dog at your age. Even if any of the Qu family's children died in vain, the blame will still be blamed on you bitch. Do you expect me to tie my hands and let you, the Qu family, kill you?"
Is it possible to calm down the resentment in your heart? You, Qu Wuyang, can feel the pain of losing a child. Others are not people's children, people's couples, and people's parents? Blood debts are paid with blood. There are thirty-six people living in the river mouth. None of their lives is better than yours.
The children of the Qu family are cheap."
"..." Qu Wuyang was choked to the point of being speechless by Lin Fu. He was unwilling to die in the hands of Zhuzi this time, and just stared at Lin Fu angrily.
Lin Fu took the chair handed over by the jailer and sat down. He smiled and said: "Do you still expect me to respect you as a person and to take care of you in prison? Then from now on, I want you to understand that in prison,
Dao, you are nothing but shit."
"Aren't you afraid that I will commit suicide on hunger strike?" Qu Wuyang opened his bloodshot eyes and said.
"Yes, it doesn't matter if anyone dies on Prison Island. If you Qu Wuyang dies, it will be really troublesome." Lin Fu smiled coldly, turned around and ordered, "All heavy-duty prisoners in the inner prison will have their rations reduced starting tomorrow."
50%, if someone goes on a hunger strike, it can be distributed to other heavy-duty prisoners, so even the nephews and nephews named Qu Lao'er will expect him to go on a hunger strike."
"If you come to interrogate me alone late at night, you must have some agenda. Don't bully me, Qu Wuyang, like I am a three-year-old child." Qu Wuyang said with a sigh of relief.
"Give him a stool to sit on and talk, and take off the heavy shackles so that he can have the strength to talk." Lin Fu ordered.
Changsun Geng sent someone to bring a stool, removed the heavy shackles from Qu Wuyang's neck, and then retreated, leaving Lin Fu and Ao Canghai to interrogate Qu Wuyang alone in the prison cell.
"You said a lot of cruel things, but you are a sensible person, and we don't need to blackmail you," Lin Fu said. "You are still glad that your Qu family is in my hands. I have my own limits in what I do.
Your Qu family has been convicted of being a bandit. If you feel aggrieved here, you can transfer all the men, women, and children of your Qu family to the city prison or the Jiangning Prefecture Prison, so that your Qu family, men, women, and children can live a comfortable life for the last time."
Qu Wuyang did not say anything. According to common practice, the female prisoners of the Qu family should be detained in the official matchmaker's house. If this were to be the case, the official matchmaker's house would probably be a bit more lively than the most famous Qingfen Lane in the city. There are a group of officials and gentry in Jiangning City.
What I like most is to see wealthy families in the area being imprisoned. Most of the wives, concubines, and maids of wealthy families are beautiful, and they are much more interesting to play with than the women in brothels.
"What do you want? Isn't the money obtained by confiscating Qu's family enough?" Qu Wuyang finally asked in a soft tone.
Searching the Qu family's property was the most lucrative job. Lin Fu gave up and did not participate. However, Zhang Yubo and Chen/Yuanliang did not leave him behind. Afterwards, the gold and silver ingots quietly shipped to the river mouth amounted to 20,000 taels of silver; Lin Fu gave up and did not participate.
Fu used the money to place an order with Longjiang Shipyard to build two five-masted sailing ships.
Lin Fu just wanted to try his best to cover up the secret of Changshan Island at this time. Gu Wuchen and the others knew that Jiyun Society had received 20,000 taels of silver, so he used the 20,000 taels of silver to build ships. There was nothing difficult to explain. As for outsiders,
, can't even figure out the intricate relationship between Lin Fu and the Lin family, and there is no need to explain it to the outside world.
In addition, Zhang Yubo, Chen Yuanliang and others sent a half-foot-tall wooden box filled with jewels and jade.
According to the accounts temporarily sealed and deposited in the public treasury, Zhang Yubo, Chen Yuanliang and the others confiscated only 80,000 taels of family property from the Qu family. This number was just to fool the ghosts. The Lin family fled in panic from Shanglinli and brought two children with them.
One hundred thousand taels of cash came out. In fact, they confiscated the Qu family in a leisurely manner. The gold and silver ingots were converted into nearly 300,000 taels, and there were countless treasures, pearls, jade, calligraphy and paintings by famous people. These were only the family properties of Qu Wuyang and Qu Wuming. After all,
The crime of collaborating with bandits is much smaller than the crime of treason, which can confiscate most of the property of Quyang Town's family members.
Excluding the confiscated 80,000 taels of cash, they had withheld more than 200,000 taels of cash - this was the actual account Zhang Yubo and Chen/Yuanliang reported to Gu Wuchen. Of course, the official responsible for the inspection kept it privately.
How much is impossible to estimate.
It’s no wonder that being an official is easy to make a fortune, and it’s no wonder that prefects and county magistrates like to break up people’s families and destroy people’s families. Although Lin Fu’s income from the raids is far less than that of Gu Wuchen, Lin Li’s annual savings in the Lin family’s business is less than 20,000 taels of silver.
Fishing in the troubled waters of Luoyang Lake, Lin Fu had nearly 100,000 more cash in his hands. At this time, he was not short of silver. He sat with his legs crossed, stared at Qu Wuyang, and said: "The Qu family colluded with the Taihu pirates to control Huzhou, Danyang
, Pingjiang, Jiahang, rice grains exported to Jiangning, I need a complete list of the Qu family who colluded with the Taihu pirates - if I find anything missing, this prison island is too small to accommodate your Qu family.
Before you start writing this list, I might as well tell you one more thing. There is a female member of your Qu family who is not sick but has slippery pulse..."
If a woman is not sick but has a slippery pulse, she can be judged to be pregnant.
Qu Wuyang opened his eyes and looked at Lin Fu: "How dare you not cut the grass and root out the roots?"
"Hmph, I have my limits, and I don't need you to remind me how to do things..." Lin Fu said coldly, and asked the jailer waiting outside to pass in paper and pen.
Qu Wuyang couldn't figure out what Lin Fu wanted from this list. He knew that he was not qualified to ask, and he didn't dare to lie. After all, there were hundreds of Taihu thieves captured by Lin Fu at the mouth of the river in one night. Lin Fu only needed to spend some time to catch them.
By checking, you can verify the authenticity of the list he wrote.
*****************
Lin Fu got the list written by Qu Wuyang, and asked Changsun Geng to give him other records, and then he and Ao Canghai went straight to the training camp at the east end of Prison Island.
Fu Qinghe, Cao Ziang, Zhou Pu, Wu Qi, Zhao Hu, Big Loach Master Ge Cunxin, and Little Loach Master Ge Cunxiong all gathered in the camp.
Fu Qinghe, Cao Ziang, and Little Loach Master Ge Cunxiong took the list written by Qu Wuyang and quickly compared it with other records one by one.
Taihu Lake is located between the four prefectures of Jiahang, Pingjiang, Danyang, and Huzhou. There are also water village forces. However, because the Taihu Lake Basin is located in a prosperous area, people can barely live a life. The conflicts with the government are not very fierce. The water village forces are more like power.
Although wealthy people are somewhat unclean behind the scenes, they can still maintain their status as good citizens on the surface. There are very few Taihu thieves who openly rob families and homes, and the government's suppression of the water village forces in the Taihu Lake basin is also relatively light.
Liu An'er gathered a crowd to start an uprising, causing chaos in Hongzepu. Jiangdong County will naturally be more vigilant against the power of Taihu Water Village. The Qujiatong bandit case will completely change the views and positions of Jiangdong County's various government agencies on the power of Taihu Water Village. At least the evidence is conclusive, giving Qujiatong
The Taihu pirates who were bribed by the Japanese to attack the river mouth will definitely be included in the list of people to be eliminated in the future.
"It is impossible for Ninghai Town to have the patience to distinguish the good from the bad, and it is impossible for the various government offices in Jiangdong County to treat the Taihu water village forces differently; for fear that the Taihu water village forces are panicking and running up and down at this time; the She family is integrating the East China Sea bandit forces in Changguo
If you want to invade the Taihu Basin on a large scale, you will never miss this opportunity to win over the Taihu water village forces." Cao Ziang compared the list written by Qu Wuyang with other records and said.
"Yes, we have arranged for the Qu family to join forces at the mouth of the river. Maybe the She family will benefit the most in the end. Thinking about it, I really don't want to be reconciled." Lin Fu shook his head helplessly.
"There are good and bad forces in the Taihu Water Village. Among them, there must be some who are unwilling to take refuge with the East China Sea bandits. We cannot let the situation force them all to join the East China Sea bandits." Fu Qinghe said.
"The most appropriate solution is for Li Zhuo to integrate all the Taihu Water Village forces into the Jiangning Water Camp," Lin Fu sighed softly, "but this strategy is difficult to work..."
"How can we make good use of this list?" Cao Ziang asked, holding up the list written by Qu Wuyang.
"I'm going to Pingjiang Mansion tonight..." Fu Qinghe said, "I should be able to convince a few people to go to Changshan Island."
"Changshan Island can't accommodate too many people. Besides, Changshan Island is not well-known and can't convince a few people," Lin Fu frowned and said, "But it's better than nothing. It's hard work, Mr. Fu has to go a long way."
It's a trip. But it's not enough for Mr. Fu to go there. Mr. Fu goes there secretly, and I go there in the open..."
"It's too dangerous for you to go," Cao Ziang said.
"I am not willing to let all the power of the Taihu Water Village be drawn to the She family; besides, if the She family is allowed to effortlessly penetrate the power into the Taihu Basin, it will be extremely ineffective against Changshan Island. No matter how dangerous it is, I will still fight for Pingjiang Mansion.
Go," Lin Fu said decisively, "I will go to Gu Wuchen now to ask for a way to go to Pingjiang Mansion."
Cao Ziang, Ge Cunxin, Ge Cunxiong and others wanted to dissuade Lin Fu.
"Don't try to persuade me. Mr. Da Loach will accompany me and I will take away all the military guards. Besides, with Mr. Ao here, I can have one more life. Mr. Ao, don't you think so?" Lin Fu asked Ao Canghai with a smile.
"Of course," Ao Canghai smiled, "but I don't agree with you going to Pingjiang either."
In the Battle of the Hekou, Lin Fu was too bloody, and the Taihu bandits were killed. After all, there were only a few prisoners. After these days, most of the Taihu bandits who were defeated have regrouped. They did not dare to attack the Hekou on a large scale again, but Lin Fu
How could they not take action if they were openly sent to your door?
Besides, the She family's power in Jiangning is very weak, but it is easy for the Donghai bandits to enter Pingjiang Mansion. Lin Fu went to Pingjiang Mansion openly. Who knows if the She family will take the opportunity to take action?
Lin Fu openly went to Pingjiang Mansion, which was really not an ordinary danger.
