Chapter 273 Ju Qingdeng has defiled many civilian girls?【4600】
"My grandson! Good morning!"*4
As soon as my grandson Fang appeared, the four sentries stood still and bowed to my grandson.
My grandson waved to the sentries without any airs:
"Hello~ Hello~~ Thank you for your hard work guarding the gate~~"
Although he only met my grandson Chutaro once, Ayoto still had a very good impression of this "genius detective" who had a good reputation and was friendly to people.
"My grandson is from Gui'an."
Qingdeng took the initiative to chat with the other party.
"Benevolent King, Gui'an~ What a coincidence, I unexpectedly met you outside the gate of the government office~~"
And my grandson responded enthusiastically.
"Oh my, it's really like traveling back in time~~ I met you unexpectedly more than 2 months ago, but I feel like I just met you yesterday."
As my grandson spoke, he raised his eyes and scanned Qingdeng from head to toe several times.
"Nioh, this squad leader's uniform matches you very well~~"
"Thank you for the compliment." Qingdeng said with a smile.
At this time, the sentries verified Qingdeng's identity and confirmed that the person in front of them was the newly appointed captain of the third division of the Huo Fu Thieves.
"Tachibana-sama!"*4
While returning the seal cage and other items to Qingdeng, the sentries greeted Qingdeng in unison with a tacit understanding as if they had rehearsed in advance.
"Nioh, let's go in together?"
My grandson nuzzled toward the gate of the government office behind the sentries.
"In a little while, Lord Kurosawa and Lord Okubo will hold a simple 'welcome party' for you in the meeting room~~"
"You have just arrived, so you must be unfamiliar with the internal structure of this big house, right? I can just show you the way~~"
The words "Kurosawa-sama" and "Okubo-sama" in my grandson's words are naturally referring to the two current commanders-in-chief of the Hōfu Rogue Kai: Kurosawa Atsushi and Okubo Tadō.
Qingdeng was unfamiliar with the place, so it was a natural thing for him to have someone willing to guide him.
So Qingdeng nodded gently without thinking too much:
"Thank you, I'll help you then."
"Hahaha, you're welcome~ Let's go, follow me~~"
My grandson led Qingdeng, and the two of them crossed the threshold one after the other and advanced into the depths of the government office.
Another big difference between the Huofu Thieves Kai and the "Three Chapters" of the Sanchai is that the latter does not have strict clothing requirements. With the force and the same heart, the gangbiki can wear whatever they want.
As for the former, everyone from the commander-in-chief to the ordinary tongxin must wear the uniform issued by the government neatly when on duty.
Although the uniforms of the generals modified by Huofu Thieves will change with different levels, the color is always uniform black.
Therefore, after following my grandson into the interior of the Huofu Thief Reform Office, Qingdeng saw many "men in black" walking back and forth in the corridors, courtyards and other places.
All the "men in black" who passed by Qingdeng and my grandson all stopped to salute and say hello to the young captain next to Qingdeng, and cast a puzzled look at Qingdeng, a stranger.
Eyes.
At this moment, Qingdeng suddenly heard a string of children's laughter.
Qingto looked around and saw that in the direction of 2 o'clock away from him, there were two little girls wearing beautiful yellow and pink kimonos. They looked to be about 7 or 8 years old and were happily playing with hydrangeas.
Not far away from these two little girls, there were three soldiers standing guard with serious faces.
Two little girls wearing exquisite costumes appeared in a military area, and the two children were playing there holding a hydrangea... This sight seemed strange no matter how you looked at it.
My grandson noticed Qingdeng’s gaze. He raised his eyes and glanced at the two little girls and said:
"Those two children are the daughters of Mr. Kurosawa: Ah Shi and Ah Jie~ They are very lively and often run around and make trouble around the government office~~"
"You should meet them frequently in the future, so you can take this opportunity to remember their faces and names in advance~~"
Lord Kurosawa's daughter——After hearing my grandson's explanation, Aomori immediately showed a look of understanding.
The government office of Huo Fu Thieves Kai is not fixed. Whoever is the current commander-in-chief will have his or her home used as the government office of Huo Fu Thieves Kai. This rule often causes the failure of successive Huo Fu Thieves Kai.
The commander-in-chief and his family had to live and eat with a group of vicious "men in black".
The current government office that Huofu Thieves changed is the home of Kurosawa Atsushi, one of the current commander-in-chief.
Therefore, it makes sense to bump into Kurosawa Atsushi's family in this place.
"Nioh, have you seen the newly painted house over there? That house is where Kurosawa-sama's family members live. We are not allowed to approach it at will~~"
"Then... the room over there with smoke coming out is the kitchen~~"
My grandson showed Qingdeng the way and enthusiastically helped Qingdeng introduce the internal structure of the government office and the layout of the rooms.
Qingdeng listened carefully the whole time.
But midway, after hesitating several times, Qingdeng finally couldn't help but interrupted my grandson's words:
"That...my grandson."
"Huh? What's wrong?"
"Actually... you don't need to address me as a 'benevolent king'."
Qingden smiled with a hint of helplessness.
"You can call me by a more natural name. Just call me 'Tangerine'."
"Oh~ I quite like the name 'Nioh'~ The syllables are short and powerful~~Okay, since you prefer the name 'Tachibana', then I will call you 'Tangerine King' from now on.
~~"
"Tachibana-kun, we are almost going to the meeting hall~ You will probably encounter a lot of people making bad faces at you later, so you have to be mentally prepared~~"
"Showing a bad face to me?" Qingdeng was startled for a moment, then he changed to a half-joking tone, "What? A lot of people don't welcome me?"
My grandson turned around, met Qingdeng’s eyes, and showed an intriguing smile:
"You are right. From what I have observed, quite a few people do not welcome your arrival~~"
Quite a few people - upon hearing this string of words, Qingdeng raised an inquiring gaze towards my grandson.
This action, this look, means "Can you tell me in detail who are hostile to me?"
My grandson, who understood the meaning of Qingdeng's eyes, put his hands on his hips and began to ponder.
"Hmm~ It seems a bit impolite to speak ill of people behind their backs... Never mind~ I hate those people anyway, so I'll tell you in detail~~"
"Let's take the captain of the fifth division, Suma Kimura, as an example - among all the division captains, he is the most resistant to your arrival~~"
"I think back to when he heard that the vacant position of captain of the third division was going to be replaced by you, he was furious~ He kept shouting, 'How can I hand over the position of captain to such a person!','
It’s really a shame for me to associate with such people!’~~”
After Qingdeng heard this, he asked puzzledly:
"Why does he have such a big objection to me? If my memory is correct, let alone having an old grudge with him, I have never even seen his face."
"He has always been proud of his family background of 2,000 Shijialu."
"alright, I got it."
Qingden's mouth twitched slightly.
My grandson's simple words explained why Kimura Suma was hostile to Ayoto.
More than a month ago on September 10th... that is, the day he decided to learn archery from Tianzhang Academy, Tianzhang Academy gave Qingdeng a detailed explanation of all the troubles he might encounter after joining the Huofu Thief Kaimen.
Children and troublesome people.
Qingdeng didn't expect that Tianzhang Yuan was right - he actually met a believer in the "bloodline theory" in the Huofu Thief Kai...
"In addition to Kimura Sima, the captain of the sixth division, Hosaka Genzo, is also very hostile to you~~"
"What's going on with this guy? Is he also proud of his bloodline and despises me, the 'original royal family'?"
"That's not true~ Genzo Hosaka is a jealous 'red-eyed man'~~"
My grandson raised his hands in a funny way and stretched his eyes wide open.
"He is the kind of person who would rather be unlucky than see others be lucky~~"
"If anyone gets lucky, makes a lot of money, or gets promoted, then that person is his enemy~~"
"Ah~ By the way, Genzo Kasaka is the oldest squad leader in our Hōfu Thieves Kai~~"
"He just celebrated his 43rd birthday not long ago."
"I wonder if it's because he finally reached his current position through hard work and qualifications, so he hates young and promising elites the most~~"
Speaking of this, my grandson shrugged his shoulders, tilted his head, and glanced at Qingdeng.
"In addition to the two people I mentioned above, the captain of the seventh team, Tsuchida Masaki, the eighth team captain, Kazama Nobuyoshi, and one of our bosses: Okubo Tadou, you should also pay more attention~~"
"What's going on with these three people? Do they despise my family background, or are they 'red-eyed people' who don't like other people's kindness?"
"None of them~the situations of these three people are different~~"
"Masayoshi Tsuchida doesn't have strong hostility towards you, but he is Kimura's scumbag~~"
“He doesn’t have any great skills, he’s just very good at flattering people~~”
"In addition to Kimura Suma coming from a banner family with a fortune of 2,000 koshi, his wife is also the daughter of a big merchant in Edo~~"
"I heard that his mother is also related to the current leader of the Lao Middle School: Nobuyoshi Ando~~"
"Although Kimura Shuma's family background is nothing, looking at the hidden dragons and crouching tigers in Edo~~"
"But for a guy like Tsuchida Masaichi, who only has a banner name, but actually the whole family has no great energy, Kimura Suma is already one of those unattainable powerful people~~"
"So in order to please Kimura Suma, Tsuchida Masashi often hangs out with Kimura Suma~~"
"Kimura said he would go east, but Tsuchida would never go west~~"
At this point, my grandson sneered and changed into a mocking tone.
"Even if Kimura Suma points to a piece of coal and says it is white, Tsuchida Masaichi will be busy flattering him, 'Yes, yes! Kimura-sama, you are right! All coal in the world is white!'~~
"
"As for Captain Nobuyoshi Kazama of the Eighth Division, he has a problem, and that is his greed for money."
"On the one hand, he took advantage of his power to embezzle money crazily. On the other hand, in addition to his official duties, he ran a timber business that would be quite profitable if he had the connections~~"
"One hand is corruption, and the other is business...Ha~ I have to say that Kazama Xinyi is really a first-rate expert in the field of 'how to make money'~"
Hearing this, Qingdeng couldn't help but interject:
"Why is such a money-grubbing person hostile to me? There shouldn't be any grudges between him and me, right?"
"Don't worry~ Just listen to what I have to say~~"
My grandson spread his hands.
"Do you remember what I just said? Kimura Suma's wife is the daughter of a big merchant in Edo."
"And Kazama Xinyi happens to have a close business relationship with Kimura Suma's father-in-law."
"Therefore, although Kazama Nobuyoshi is not as eager to bring the whole family together to lick Kimura Suma's buttocks as Toma Masayoshi is, his relationship with Kimura Suma is still close."
"For the time being, we can also count him, Kimura Shuma, and Doma Masashi as a group of people~~"
"Kimura Suma hates you so much, guess how Kazama Xinyi will view you?"
"As for the last Tadashi Okubo, the reason why I asked you to pay more attention to him is relatively simple."
"He owes Kimura Suma... No, to be more precise, he owes Kimura Suma's father a big favor~~"
"In order to repay this favor, I think Okubo Tadashi will be happy to agree to some of Kimura Suma's 'simple requests' that are not difficult~~"
When he mentioned the word "simple request", my grandson specially emphasized his tone and turned his face again, giving Qingdeng a meaningful look.
"……ha……"
The moment my grandson finally finished his series of "popular science", Qingdeng blurted out a sound unconsciously.
"These colleagues of mine... are really 'enthusiastic' towards me..."
A crazy supporter of the "blood theory".
A shameless red-eyed monster.
A flattering sycophant.
An accomplice who loves money.
A boss who owes an important favor to an obsessive supporter of the "blood theory".
Basically, most of the management of Huo Fu Thief Kai have direct or indirect conflicts of interest with Qingdeng.
In terms of the officialdom environment, it seems to be even worse than the "Three Chapters" of Beifan Institute where I first joined as "Da Tou Deng"... Qing Deng thought to himself.
Qingdeng had a vague hunch that the new official career he would get after moving to the right would be far more "splendid" than he originally expected!
My grandson has been observing Qingdeng’s facial expression openly since just now.
"Ju-kun, so many people have prejudices against you, but you don't seem to be afraid of it~~"
The facts are indeed as my grandson said.
No matter when he was listening to my grandson's narration, or after my grandson finished speaking, Qingdeng's expression was calm throughout.
He looked like he didn't take my grandson's words... and Kimura Shuma and the others seriously at all.
"Ah? What's so scary about this kind of thing?"
Qingdeng said slowly in a calm tone as if he was speaking the truth that should be taken for granted:
"Even if I feel scared and nervous, it won't help, right?"
"Could it be that if I show fear and nervousness, those people won't be hostile to me?"
"In short - no matter what attitude they adopt towards me in the future, I will just show them off."
"Anyway, if they dare to offend me...I have plenty of ways to deal with them."
Click!
After saying that, Qingdeng raised his left hand and put it on the handle of the Ding Guishen's knife with an "unconscious" movement.
The metal sword was struck and made a loud noise.
"Hahaha!"
My grandson glanced at the Dingguishen on Qingdeng’s waist, then raised his head and laughed a few times:
"Mr. Orange, do you want to kill them with a knife?"
"This is not okay~ Your joke is a bit too much~"
"If you kill them, I will have to catch you~ I don't want to be your enemy unless I have to~~"
After saying that, my grandson turned away and stopped looking at Qingdeng.
My grandson's behavior caused him to miss a unique scene - after listening to his above words, Qingdeng showed a smile full of unique charm...
…
…
At this moment——
Huo paid thieves to change the government office, and the meeting room——
"Hey, do you know? I heard that Ju Qingden has defiled many women!"
A rough voice came from the meeting hall.

Yesterday I slept in bed for over ten hours, and I finally felt a little more comfortable. Taking advantage of the moment when my body felt better, I took the time to code today's chapter, and then went to bed after finishing coding (leopard sleep.jpg)
The author's current physical and mental state cannot guarantee that he will be able to read 67,000-word chapters every day. The author will try his best to update 45,000 words a day and try not to ask for leave. Please forgive me! (Leopard Head Crying.jpg)
Seeing how dedicated the author is, please give this book a monthly vote!
Please vote for me monthly! Please vote for recommendation!
The timber business in the Edo period is equivalent to our current earthwork and building materials business.
So...everyone knows it!
If there is a way to do this kind of business, it will not be an ordinary huge profit!
*******
ps:
Although the "Samurai Laws" of Edo strictly prohibited samurai from engaging in business and other activities, by the end of the Tokugawa period, the "Samurai Laws" had long existed in name only.
Not to mention samurai doing business, many farmers took advantage of this chaotic time to wear swords and pretend to be samurai.
