When passing by the steamed bun stall, he signaled Tieniu to take out a few copper coins and handed them to the stall owner of the steamed bun stall, thus paying the bill for the two previous government servants.
Of course Jiang Fan himself had money with him, but paying bills should always be done by his attendants, otherwise how could he show his identity as a young master?
At least that’s how it’s played in TV dramas!
Not only the steamed stuffed bun stall, but also following the two government officials, paying for everything the two government officials took casually along the way. The more Jiang Fan looked at it, the more annoyed he became.
Especially when I think of these two government officials being so upright, the vendors who had their things taken away immediately looked like they were used to it. Not only did they not dare to say anything, but they also kept smiling faces, which meant that
This situation is not unique!
In the large Heyang City, the yamen patrolling the streets should be responsible for the security of the entire city and ensuring the personal and property safety of the people of Heyang City, but in the end, they are on the front line of exploitation and oppression?
If all government officials are like this, it is no wonder that the public security in Heyang City is getting worse day by day.
"The phenomenon of asking for money and taking cards is very serious. This must be changed."
Jiang Fan said angrily.
Tieniu still didn't understand, but nodded in agreement and said "Yeah".
At this time, the two government officials had already walked out of a restaurant not far away.
It only took a few minutes from the time they entered to the time they came out. A man who looked like he was the owner of the restaurant was walking the two of them to the door with a smile on his face and a bent posture.
Compared with before entering, the two government officials now had a few more money bills in their hands, and they were carrying them into their arms in a grand manner.
He didn't care at all whether he would be seen by people on the road, everything was obviously taken for granted.
Yeah...it seems like it's not just about taking cards, but also protection fees?
Are you really looking down on the civil servants of Da Zhou, or is this... an unspoken rule that everyone is well aware of?
The so-called strict control of bribery is limited to the supervision of officials. As for the lowest level government officials, no one pays attention to it?
Jiang Fan was just thinking in his mind, when the street not far away suddenly fell into chaos.
Immediately afterwards, two men took an invisible bag and ran away.
Behind the two men, a woman screamed helplessly and struggled to catch up.
However, the physical gap between men and women made it impossible for the woman to catch up with the two men. The distance between the three of them quickly widened.
There were many pedestrians on the street and many vendors on both sides, but in the face of such a scene, no one took the initiative to lend a helping hand.
On the contrary, as the two men ran away, all the pedestrians gave way to the two men as if avoiding snakes and scorpions, as if they were afraid of offending the two men.
Jiang Fan heard clearly what the woman was shouting, and his first reaction was to rush forward and stop the two men.
But seeing that the two men's running route happened to pass by the door of the restaurant where the government officials were, they stopped and watched what happened.
This sudden change also alarmed the two government officials.
It's just that the two government officials still looked lazy, not at all nervous because of this unexpected incident.
As the two men rushed to the street in front of the restaurant, the two government officials did not make any move to intercept them.
Standing at the door of the restaurant as if it had nothing to do with them, one of them actually yawned!
On the contrary, when the two men ran to the door of the restaurant, their speed obviously slowed down. They nodded to the Yamen servant and then increased their speed again.
Although the movements were very secretive, Jiang Fan could still see them clearly.
This completely made Jiang Fan furious.
Okay... I won't mention the food and card requirements, protection fees, etc., but at least you can do your job well?!
As a result, a robbery occurred in broad daylight. You two patrolling government officials remained indifferent and did not say anything. You even made eye contact with the two robbers?!
What do you mean?
Have you checked your eyes, is he the person you want to let go?
What makes Jiang Fan feel even more unforgivable about the two government officials is that he just saw that these two government officials looked familiar, and now he suddenly remembered that when they were framed by Gu Haoran in Zuixian Tower, these two government officials were the first ones to rush in.
The second person!
Okay! It’s like old and new hatreds have come together. Let’s kill a few chickens today!
It doesn't matter whether you can warn the monkeys or not!
Jiang Fan snorted coldly, waved towards Tieniu, and then pointed at the two robbers who had already ran past the restaurant.
Tieniu understood immediately, and in a flash, with an agility far beyond his majestic body, he stood in front of the two robbers in just one breath!
Then each of them slapped each other, easily knocking the two robbers unconscious on the spot.
The incident happened so suddenly that the people on the street and the two government officials were stunned at the same time.
However, compared to the confusion of the people, the two government officials recognized Tieniu's identity.
My heart skipped a beat, and I looked behind Tieniu, and sure enough I found Jiang Fan walking towards this side with a gloomy look on his face.
The two government officials looked at each other and saw deep uneasiness in each other's eyes. Their minds were spinning rapidly, trying to find a justifiable excuse for themselves.
Jiang Fan walked directly in front of the two government officials. At this time, the woman finally caught up with him. He was out of breath and could not even say a complete sentence.
Tieniu threw the two fainted robbers to the ground, then took the bag that the two robbers had snatched and handed it to the woman.
After being stunned for a moment, the woman took the bag with a look of disbelief on her face, opened the bag tremblingly, looked at the contents inside, and immediately cried with joy!
The whole person immediately knelt down, which really shocked Jiang Fan.
He quickly stretched out his hand to support the woman, and the gloomy expression was replaced by a kind smile. He said in a warm voice: "This aunt, it's not like that. It's your thing. Come and see if there is anything missing."
"No less, no less, thank you noble man! This is the money I gave to my family to prescribe medicine. If it was taken away like this, my family wouldn't know what to do. Your noble heart is kind and you may live a long life."
."
The woman could not help but express her gratitude.
"Auntie, I am the newly appointed city captain of our Heyang City. I am responsible for the security of the whole city, so this is what I should do. You don't need to thank me. On the contrary, I should apologize to you for doing this in broad daylight.
If there is a robbery, it is my responsibility."
Jiang Fan said with a wry smile.
City captain?
The woman was stunned, then trembled, and wanted to kneel down again.
"Auntie, don't beat me up. I neglected my duty and you were robbed in the street. The government officer who was supposed to be in charge of security was still standing on the side watching the fun. If you kneel down to me again, then I will really be ashamed of myself.
."
Jiang Fan said helplessly.
The two government officials standing nearby were immediately frightened by these words and started to tremble.
What bad luck... This newly appointed Lord City Captain turns out to be really a high-spirited scholar?!
