Chapter 77: Confiscation of property, great harvest
early morning!
Such a terrible thing happened at the dock last night, but to ordinary people, it was as if nothing had happened.
After all, ordinary people were asleep last night.
Who would dare to go to the dock in the middle of the night to watch Black Stone Martial Arts School transport goods?
At this time, a man wearing the uniform of the Black Stone Martial Arts School, holding a fried dough stick in one hand and a steamed bun in the other, called his friends and walked towards the martial arts school together.
His name is Cheng Xiaosan, the third child in the family, 35 years old this year. He has been hanging out in the Black Stone Martial Arts School since he was 15 years old. After 20 years, he has become just a small leader with a few younger brothers under him.
Life is pretty average. I can’t say I’m rich, but I can say I have enough food and drink.
His biggest goal is to become an elite disciple.
However, this goal was somewhat difficult, and he did not have the strength to complete many of the tasks. It was not that he did not want to complete them, but that he was afraid of death.
"A new day has begun, Black Rock Dojo I...eh?"
As soon as Cheng Xiaosan arrived at the entrance of the martial arts gym, he found that the door was closed and there was even a seal on the door. Not only was he staring at it in amazement, but there were already a lot of people gathered at the door, staring at the situation in front of them in a daze.
"Hey, hey, hey, what's going on? Why is our martial arts school closed?"
"Who is so bold? This is the Black Stone Martial Arts School."
"A seal from the Ankang County Inspection Office."
Doubt, confusion, shock, and all kinds of incomprehensible emotions surged into their hearts, causing great turmoil in their hearts.
Some of the onlookers seemed to know what was going on. "I heard the noise last night. A large number of patrol officers came to the Black Stone Martial Arts Hall and arrested many people. I heard that the owner and deputy owner of the hall were arrested, and the hall masters and others were also taken to the Inspection Office."
Cheng Xiaosan turned his head and shouted angrily, "Don't talk nonsense. The Black Stone Martial Arts School is one of the six schools in Ankang County. Even if the Inspection Department had ten guts, they wouldn't dare to do that."
When the people who were speaking saw Cheng Xiaosan's eyes that were about to spit fire, they shrank their heads for a moment, some of them were afraid to speak, and took a few steps back, moving backwards and hiding behind the crowd.
I know the inside story and told you, but not only did you not believe it, you even wanted to hit someone. I won't continue to tell you.
At this moment, a huge team of hundreds of people appeared.
"Manager Yang, what's going on?" When Cheng Xiaosan saw the person coming, he was overjoyed, as if he had found his backbone. The person who came was actually a manager of the Black Stone Martial Arts School and also his immediate superior.
Manager Yang's face turned pale. He ignored Cheng Xiaosan and walked straight to the steps of the gate. He pressed his hand and said, "The Inspection Office arrested our owner, deputy owner and other hall masters without any reason. We can't just let it go. If you have the courage, follow me to the Inspection Office to ask for his release. No matter what, we must make them release our owner."
Raise your arms and shout.
The disciples of the Black Stone Martial Arts School were excited.
Then, without saying a word, they headed towards the Inspection Office in a mighty manner.
At the same time, the other five sects all knew about the Black Stone Martial Arts School. When they received the news, their first thought was that someone had drunk too much horse urine and started talking nonsense.
How could the Inspection Department have the ability to capture all the top executives of Black Stone Martial Arts School?
But when they learned the truth, they stood there in a daze, unable to come back to their senses for a long time.
"Ankang County is about to change."
……
Shanhe Martial Arts School.
"Master, Deputy Master Qiao was captured by the Inspection Bureau. Aren't we going to rescue him?" Zhao Tiexin looked at the man sitting in the main seat. He never thought that the Inspection Bureau would be so vicious and took Qiao Yinghe away last night.
What is this called?
This was a slap in the face to them, and it was so rude that it didn't give them any face at all.
"Wait, don't be impatient. This is the first big change in the Six Sects in decades. Where on earth did that Lin come from? Why did he cause unrest in the Six Sects as soon as he appeared?" Jiang Shanhe said in a deep voice, and he felt more and more that something was wrong. Could it be that some big shot saw that the Six Sects had been a little naughty in recent years, or he was jealous of the benefits that the Six Sects had gained, so he sent this person to integrate into Ankang County, so as to find an opportunity to take over the entire Ankang County in one fell swoop.
Zhao Tiexin was about to say something, but when he saw the owner was in deep thought, he did not speak. He knew that the owner was good at using his brain, and he would often do so when he was thinking about something.
At this time, a hall master hurried in.
"Master, a large group of disciples from the Black Stone Martial Arts School are heading towards the Inspection Office. It seems that they want to put pressure on the Inspection Office to release the people. Should we send someone to join them and rescue the deputy master?"
"No rush, let's take a look at the situation first." Jiang Shanhe said.
"Oh."
The hall master and Zhao Tiexin looked at each other.
The owner's morale has declined significantly over the years, and many things have been handled by Deputy Owner Qiao. For example, some time ago, Changying Martial Arts School got involved in the canal shipping business. It would have been unreasonable not to fight to the death.
But who could have thought that they would be so tolerant.
But they had no idea that their current museum owner was very confused and had already linked Lin Fan with the county magistrate and Wang Rong, and was wondering what the relationship between the three parties was.
……
The streets were crowded with people.
The people in the city were shocked by the mighty momentum of the Black Stone Martial Arts School.
If you ask me which martial arts school the people hate the most.
Of course it’s the Black Stone Martial Arts School.
If you want to traffic in human beings, just do it properly. Why do you have to do things like kidnapping? Everyone who knows about it knows it, but no one dares to say it out loud. It is something that everyone knows.
"Do you think the Inspection Department will release the person under pressure?"
"It was hard to say before, but it's different now. The Inspection Office has Lord Lin in charge. Do you think Lord Lin can indulge these guys?"
"That's true. I knew a long time ago that Lord Lin was extraordinary. He is definitely a rare talent."
"You're talking nonsense. I know that when Lord Lin kicked someone else's martial arts school, you bought another one and ended up losing money and going bankrupt."
"I'm not, I didn't."
"Stop making noise and catch up with the team."
Inspection Department, in the interrogation room.
Shen Zhong and Xiao Wanjun were the most seriously injured. As for the other hall masters, they were captured overnight. Some were still asleep and dreaming. As soon as they opened their eyes, Lin Fan carried them to the Inspection Office like chickens.
There is no room for resistance at all.
"Master Lin, I am innocent. I am just an official in charge of the canal transport. How would I know what they sent? I am only responsible for sending out the ships."
Qiao Yinghe looked at himself tied up and felt like crying but had no tears.
God knows that Lin Fan is so fierce.
So many masters couldn't even pull out a single hair of the opponent.
Lin Fan held the teacup and drank tea quietly. Mo Wangnian's wish points had not yet been fulfilled, and he knew that things would not end so easily.
Explanation for Qiao Yinghe.
He didn't want to hear a single word.
"Shen Zhong, Black Stone Martial Arts School will soon become a thing of the past." Lin Fan was neither anxious nor impatient, and his tone was very calm.
Shen Zhong, who was seriously injured and had not received any treatment, had endless anger in his eyes. Fortunately, his cultivation had reached the True Qi realm, otherwise, with such injuries, he would have died long ago.
"Don't look at me like that. Since ancient times, good and evil cannot coexist. As an inspector, how can I allow you to do evil?"
Lin Fan always stood on the moral high ground and gave a lot of verbal output.
After saying this, he looked at Mo Wangnian.
“Have the parents of those children been found?”
These are all wishes. Parents who have lost their children must be very anxious, so it goes without saying what their wishes would be.
Mo Wangnian said: "We are investigating and searching, and there should be clues soon."
At this moment, a patrolman ran in in panic.
"My lord, it's bad. A large number of disciples from the Black Stone Martial Arts School have surrounded our Inspection Office." The patrolman was a little panicked. After all, there were too many people coming. If a fierce conflict broke out against their Inspection Office, they might not be able to withstand it.
"They are so bold." Mo Wangnian said angrily.
Lin Fan had known that something like this would happen.
The Black Stone Martial Arts School is not a lazy organization that was set up casually. Instead, after decades of development, it has become a very strong force in the local area. Now, the owner and a large number of senior executives have been arrested and taken to the Inspection Department.
How could those members tolerate this?
Naturally, pressure comes.
After all, that's how they acted in Young and Dangerous.
But unfortunately, he is not one of those policemen, but an external inspector with absolute strength.
Xiao Wanjun, who had been silent the whole time, slowly raised his head, his dark eyes flashing with a cold light, "Master Lin, the Black Stone Martial Arts School has many disciples, and they all rely on the Black Stone Martial Arts School for their livelihood. If you destroy their pot, they will be able to do anything."
Listen, this is a naked threat.
Lin Fan stood up, approached the other person, and got close to his face. Just when the other person opened his mouth to spit, he slapped him, directly slapping his face to the side, and the spit sprayed directly on Shenzhong's cheek.
The sticky liquid dripped slowly down his cheeks.
Shen Zhong had no expression on his face.
Xiao Wanjun panicked, "Master..."
"You should think about your fate. The Inspection Department has the power to execute you directly. It should be a good idea to drag you to the vegetable market and chop you up."
Lin Fan didn't care how ugly their faces were, but walked towards the door.
He wanted to see who was the leader of this trouble.
However, Xiao Wanjun's words reminded him.
A large number of disciples of the Black Stone Martial Arts School make a living from the school.
This will directly destroy the martial arts school, which means destroying their jobs. You can't just destroy your job casually, as it can easily lead to trouble. More importantly, you can't say that everyone in the Black Stone Martial Arts School is a representative of evil.
Many people just want to have a job and support their family.
Before reaching the door, they could already hear the noisy noise outside. The excited and angry roars showed that they were all very panicked.
I’m just afraid of losing my job.
The patrolmen outside were ready to fight at any time, their hands on the hilts of their knives.
Of course, the best outcome is not to fight.
There are too many disciples in the Black Stone Martial Arts School. If one wave of them rushes over, they will be so angry that they will roll their eyes.
"Let our owner go, or we will charge."
"Release the deputy museum owner."
"Release the owner."
"Release the deputy museum owner."
"Hey, don't forget our hall master."
It was quite noisy, with many demands, and the meaning was clear: all the arrested people should be released.
The onlookers stood in the corner and watched. The situation had gotten quite serious and they didn't know how the Inspection Office would handle it. At the same time, there were some other martial arts staff hiding in the crowd, watching the situation.
As Lin Fan appeared, the people stood on tiptoe and leaned their heads to look inside.
Everyone wants to know how to solve it.
"Mr. Lin, please release our owner."
"Release it."
"Release it."
The cheers were deafening.
Some of the onlookers were gloating, some were worried, and some were expecting. They seemed to have absolute confidence in Lin Fan and felt that he would be able to resolve the matter perfectly.
At this time, Manager Yang walked out proudly, staring at Lin Fan, "Lin Fan, what do you mean by attacking our Black Stone Martial Arts School? Are you trying to start a war with our Black Stone Martial Arts School? You'd better release our school master, otherwise I can't guarantee what they will do next. Brothers, what do you think?"
"Yes."
The disciples of the Black Stone Martial Arts School were so excited that their blood was boiling.
When the number of people reaches a certain number, it doesn’t matter whether the matter is related to them or not. What they want is to feel involved and have some fun.
"Who are you?" Lin Fan looked at the guy in front of him who was jumping a little bit. It seemed that he was the one who started the trouble.
"I'm Yang Wanming, the manager of the Black Stone Martial Arts School." Yang Wanming looked at Lin Fan with his head held high and unyielding. His blood was boiling now. If he could lead so many disciples to force the Inspection Office to give in, he would be a great hero and would definitely become famous in Ankang County. By then, the position of deputy school master would not only be imaginable, but the position of hall master would be within his grasp.
Lin Fan ignored Yang Wanming and looked at the group of disciples. "Are you planning to attack the Inspection Office with him, or do you want to rebel?"
A roar containing true energy burst out.
This did surprise the group of martial arts school disciples and made them a little scared.
The noisy scene was immediately suppressed.
Yang Wanming became anxious when he saw this situation. If you don't make trouble, what can I do alone?
"Don't be afraid, we are in large numbers. He has already felt the pressure we bring to him. Don't be scared by his threats. We are from the Black Stone Martial Arts School."
Yang Wanming turned around, raised his arms and shouted, hoping to wake them up so that they would follow his footsteps and blow the horn to attack the Inspection Office.
"Ouch!"
A scream came.
"You are such a meddler." Lin Fan kicked Yang Wanming on the back, making him feel so exhausted that his blood surged and he spit out several mouthfuls of blood. He wanted to get up, but it was difficult for him to do so.
"Why are you hitting people?"
"Manager Yang was beaten."
"The patrol inspector started beating people."
"Manager Yang vomited blood."
The disciples of the Black Stone Martial Arts School were furious and roared in anger, but no one dared to step forward and attack. They could only roar with ferocious faces, making it appear that they were very angry and trying to put more pressure on the Inspection Office invisibly.
"Shut up, everyone." Lin Fan shouted angrily, and a sense of majesty spread out. If he was not mistaken, it should be the legendary power of the official. "Are you all rebelling against the heaven? You just follow this guy to charge into battle and cause trouble in the Inspection Office for a few taels of silver a month. Is it necessary?"
Lin Fan looked around and his eyes fell on Cheng Xiaosan. The other party was standing next to Manager Yang just now, so he should be an important figure. The key point was that his expression was very angry, his face was red, and he was obviously a guy who was willing to help.
"What's your name?" Lin Fan asked.
"My name is Cheng Xiaosan, and I'm a disciple of the Black Stone Martial Arts School."
Cheng Xiaosan held his head high, seemingly very proud.
"How old are you?"
"Thirty-five years old."
"How long have you been a member of the Black Stone Martial Arts School?"
"I have been in the Black Stone Martial Arts School since I was fifteen. It has been twenty years now. I am considered an old man in the school."
"Bah!" Lin Fan heard this with disdain on his face, "You've been messing around since you were fifteen, and now twenty years have passed, and you're still just a disciple, not even an elite disciple. What are you doing? Why are you risking your life? Is a few taels of silver a month worth it for you to make such a fuss?"
Cheng Xiaosan blushed, "You, you humiliated me."
"Humiliate? Do you deserve my humiliation? Look at this guy. He is the manager. He can make a lot of money by causing trouble. He can put dozens or hundreds of taels in his pocket every month. Has he ever given you any benefits? When he sees you, does he always hold his head high and look down at you?"
Lin Fan didn't waste any time talking to them and just spoke the truth.
"And you, how many of you are apprentices, how many of you are disciples, it's good enough that you don't have to pay money to the martial arts school every month, and you are still looked down upon by the higher-ups from time to time, right?"
As Lin Fan said this.
Thinking about how the disciples who had been making trouble had calmed down, they looked at each other, feeling a little confused in their hearts that what the other party said made a lot of sense.
to be frank.
As a member of the Black Stone Martial Arts School, you will not be bullied by ordinary people, but you will always be bullied by the top leaders.
I didn't make much money, but my dignity suffered a great blow.
Lin Fan, who took in all their gazes, knew that these words had touched their hearts.
"Why did our Inspection Department take action against the Black Stone Martial Arts School? It's because they broke the law, kidnapped children, and sold them to other places. Have you ever thought about the desperate feelings of the parents who lost their children and wanted to find their children?"
Lin Fan recounted the crimes of the Black Stone Martial Arts School.
Some disciples seemed to know what the martial arts school was doing, while others were completely confused. Our martial arts school was engaged in human trafficking, but didn't people all sign the indenture contract voluntarily? How did it involve kidnapping children?
In the Black Stone Martial Arts School, it is simply impossible for people below the elite disciples to have access to these core operations.
Cheng Xiaosan looked at Lin Fan in confusion. He seemed to have heard of it, but had never come into contact with it in person.
"Lin, Lord Lin, if it is really illegal, we can understand that you arrested our owner, but we have elderly and children in our family, and we suddenly lost our jobs. What should we do? Everyone is in this situation, and they all have families to support." Cheng Xiaosan changed the way he addressed Lin Fan, and now called him 'Lord Lin'. It must be said that this was a very good start.
The disciples who had gathered together all looked at Lin Fan.
correct.
Their real demand is just to have something to eat.
The market situation in Ankang County is very bad now, and it is difficult for ordinary people to find a job to make a living.
Lin Fan knew this situation. Those who lived comfortably in Ankang County always had status and position. You can't think that the living standards in Ankang County are very high just because these people live comfortably.
Ordinary people still have a hard life.
Take the twenty thugs who look after the place for him, for example. They are all good fighters in the martial arts school and naturally have many connections. If they are interested in ten taels of silver a month, they would definitely not appreciate it. But why do they still serve Lin Fan so faithfully? It is because they value Lin Fan as a person.
Find a backer.
Lin Fan said: "I know your difficulties, but I want to ask, do you all want to have a job that can provide you with food and clothing?"
"Think, we think."
“I really need a job.”
Some disciples shouted.
Lin Fan looked at their wishes and found that some people had them and some did not. It seemed that people were different and their ideas were not followed through to the end.
But fortunately, there are people there. He never cares about the number of wish points. As long as there are some, it is a good start.
Lin Fan raised his hand and pressed it down. Suddenly the scene fell silent, and everyone looked at him expectantly.
"Don't worry, I, Lin Fan, will not let you lose your jobs. I will make this clear today. I, Lin Fan, will take over all the territory of Black Stone Martial Arts School as the owner of the Lin's Martial Arts School. At the same time, all the businesses of Black Stone Martial Arts School will be completely cleared by the Inspection Department. You will continue to do the same things you did before."
His meaning was very simple. The territory of the Black Stone Martial Arts School belonged to his Lin's Martial Arts School. Although the assets were cleaned up and integrated by the Inspection Bureau, they were actually still his.
"You are so arrogant, you actually want to..." Manager Yang came to his senses, slowly got up, and was about to roar, but before he could finish his words, he was kicked over again.
"Lie down on your ground."
Then he waved his hand and asked the police to send the person inside for interrogation.
The other disciples showed no reaction to Manager Yang being beaten.
As long as their demands are met, that's enough.
"It's okay now." Lin Fan said.
"Trust Master Lin."
"Believe in Lord Lin." Lin Fan said, "Okay, since you believe in me, then go your separate ways. Go back and rest for two or three days. After our inspection department has checked, everything will be back to normal."
"Yes."
After receiving Lin Fan's accurate answer, the group of disciples who were planning to cause trouble dispersed.
As for the museum owners and other high-ranking officials who were imprisoned in the Inspection Office, they would not think about it. After all, they had no feelings for them and it was impossible for them to even meet each other in the past.
The wishes of this group of disciples have not yet come true. It seems that they want to see them actually take up the post before they fulfill their wishes.
He cannot change the legal and reasonable human trafficking.
The main point is that both parties are willing.
Those who are willing to sell themselves are almost unable to survive, so it is better for them to leave some money for their family and live somewhere else, then a way to survive will appear.
What he refused to do was kidnap children.
But he knew the chain reaction after the Black Stone Martial Arts School was destroyed. The external forces of the Black Stone Martial Arts School would not tolerate this situation. But it didn't matter. If the enemy comes, the army will fight back. If the water comes, the earth will cover it. The entire Ankang County will soon be his territory. Who dares to beat him in his territory?
The ordinary people didn't expect the matter to be resolved so quickly.
"With Lord Lin in Ankang County, we ordinary people are safe."
"Yes, look at the evil deeds that Black Stone Martial Arts School has done. They have never been able to be solved, but now we have Master Lin."
"What are you talking about Master Lin? You should call him Lord Lin. You see, Lord Lin is wearing a piece of clothing now. If you want to call him Master Lin, you have to wait until he is wearing normal clothes."
"Oh, that's it."
Facing the enthusiastic cheers from the people, he accepted them calmly with a smile on his face.
What a lovely group of people.
At this time, the group of parents who had lost their children arrived. They came here at the notice of the police.
Lin Fan asked the patrolmen to bring the child out.
The moment they saw their children appear, the group of parents rushed over, hugged their children, and the whole street was filled with crying.
Infected by this situation.
The people shouted.
"Master Lin."
"Master Lin."
The cheers rose and fell like waves, one after another.
The parents found their child and fulfilled their twenty-point wish, and they were very satisfied.
The people from the martial arts schools who were mixed in the crowd left one after another and went back to report the situation.
They knew that Black Stone Martial Arts School was completely finished.
Return to the Inspection Office.
"Brother Lin, what should we do next?"
Mo Wangnian completely regarded Lin Fan as his backbone. He had no other intention but to listen to the other party's opinions on the next actions.
"It's very simple."
"Appreciate further details."
"Seal up all the assets of the Black Stone Martial Arts School and sort them out. Of course, these assets cannot be moved. The martial arts school must operate normally. After all, so many people rely on the martial arts school for their livelihood. If it stops operating completely, it will be very troublesome."
Mo Wangnian agreed with this.
He knew that there were many disciples in the Black Stone Martial Arts School, and they needed to rely on the school for their livelihood. If they were suddenly left without a job, who knows what would happen. Perhaps before long, a group of gangsters would appear near the county town, and even the number of thefts in the city would skyrocket.
Lin Fan continued, "Shen Zhong and the others have solid evidence, so there is no need for interrogation. I think the weather will be good tomorrow, so why not just chop them all off to prevent any more trouble."
"Ah?" Mo Wangnian was shocked.
I didn't expect it to be chopped so fast, it was beyond my imagination.
Even Shen Zhong and the others who were tied up were dumbfounded.
"Brother Mo, these people have done so many evil things over the years. Killing them would be too easy for them. Unfortunately, there is no other way. We are public officials and cannot execute and torture them privately. We can only give them a quick death." Lin Fan said regretfully.
Mo Wangnian: ...
Qiao Yinghe wailed, "Master Lin, I am from Shanhe Martial Arts School. You are not going to chop off my head too, are you?"
He knew that Lin Fan was a madman and a cruel and ruthless guy.
If he feels like he didn't dare to do it like before, then that's a fool's idea.
The Black Stone Martial Arts School has been turned into this.
What else could he not dare to do?
"Don't worry, I won't kill you. But you can't escape for the time being. You have to accept the interrogation here." Lin Fan was not interested in Qiao Yinghe, but was very interested in Shanhe Martial Arts School. Since they had agreed to take over the entire Ankang County, they had to take the initiative.
"Just don't kill me." Qiao Yinghe breathed a sigh of relief. Being able to stay alive was his greatest hope, and nothing else mattered for the time being.
He knew he would definitely be able to get out.
As for when to go out.
It's just a matter of time.
Mo Wangnian was a little nervous, but also a little expectant.
Years of hard work are finally coming to fruition.
Kill Shen Zhong and eliminate the Black Stone Martial Arts School.
Great.
The goal of many years is finally about to be accomplished.
"Let's go and search the house." Lin Fan stood up. The next part was his favorite. When he watched TV dramas about house searches in the past, it felt like opening a blind box, not to mention how sour and refreshing it was.
As for whether they were afraid that Shen Zhong and the others would run away because they were not here, they were definitely not afraid. They were all destroyed by him personally. Even if they ran away, where could they go?
The gate of the sealed Black Stone Martial Arts School.
A group of patrolmen rushed in, and not long after they arrived, County Magistrate Wang also came in happily.
"Lord Lin, Lord Mo." County Magistrate Wang licked his lips and smiled.
When he learned that the Inspection Office had taken down the Black Stone Martial Arts School, he was completely shocked.
It is true that people with great skills are bold and daring.
But when he learned that the inspection team was coming to search his house, he thought about it and mustered up the courage to come.
"Sir Wang." Mo Wangnian was very polite to County Magistrate Wang on the surface. The other party really helped a lot in the success of this operation. If he didn't have inside information, he wouldn't have been able to take down the Black Stone Martial Arts School in one fell swoop.
Lin Fan didn't expect that County Magistrate Wang would dare to appear here.
He didn't know that being too close to the Inspection Office would not have any good consequences. After all, there were a lot of people watching. Could it be that he wanted everyone to know that he had a part in the demise of the Black Stone Martial Arts School?
"Lord Wang, aren't you afraid that others will get suspicious of you showing up here?" Lin Fan asked.
"Ah? Uh..." Suddenly, County Magistrate Wang's face changed slightly. When he learned about the house confiscation, he was overwhelmed by the enthusiasm for the confiscation. But now that Lin Fan reminded him, he suddenly came to his senses.
Yes.
Now the Inspection Department is raiding the Black Stone Martial Arts School, and I appear here to get a piece of the action. If the outside world knows about this, I'm afraid...
"Farewell, farewell."
He didn’t say much.
County Magistrate Wang left in a hurry.
"This..." Mo Wangnian looked at County Magistrate Wang's departing back and didn't know what to say for a moment. It seemed like there was something seriously wrong with his brain.
"That greedy guy, we will be able to use him in the future, there is no need to say anything more to him." Lin Fan said.
"That's true."
Above the six gates there is a county magistrate.
The other party has not appeared yet, maybe he is just watching the show.
Soon, Mo Wangnian was guarding the courtyard, the other patrolmen went to the surrounding rooms, and Lin Fan went to the back of the martial arts hall.
It is often impossible to put the money of Black Stone Martial Arts School in the open.
There must be a secret place to store silver in the martial arts school.
Of course, what is more important than silver in the Black Stone Martial Arts School is martial arts. A martial arts school that has been developed for decades naturally has a large number of martial arts secrets.
Normal secret books are kept in the library.
Although there are many secret books, the truly advanced ones will definitely not be placed there.
Came to the backyard where Shen Zhong lived.
Luxury, really luxury.
The rockery garden has everything, and there is even a large fish pond with fish in it, and fishing rods are placed on the shelf nearby.
I didn't expect he was a fisherman.
Looking around, there seems to be nothing conspicuous.
But he has memorized the details of this place, and it is often the inconspicuous ones that are most likely to cause problems.
Push open the heavy door of the study.
Step inside.
The house was very clean, spotless, and things were arranged in order. Then I started to search in the study, but after searching for a long time, I didn't find any problems.
After making sure the inspection was thorough, he came to Shen Zhong's bedroom.
He found some strange things in the bedroom, including a whip with grains on it, red candles piled in a box, and a ball with a rope and small holes on it.
What a strange thing.
It's so fucking evil.
After searching a long circle.
Still didn't find anything useful, and there was no secret passage even under the bed board that was used as a professional routine.
He knew that Shen Zhong would not leave his wealth outside the martial arts hall, and would definitely come to the courtyard within his reach, looking at the fish pond and then at the rockery. The rockery had an entrance, allowing people to walk in and then come out from another entrance.
As if he had thought of something.
Lin Fan walked into the rockery, touched here, knocked there, and during his casual touches, he actually triggered the mechanism. With a click, a passage actually appeared inside the rockery.
"What a clever little fellow."
Maybe it's a compliment to Shen Zhong.
Or maybe he was praising Lin Fan.
It doesn't matter.
It doesn’t matter who the clever guy is. What matters is that I finally found him.
There was no strange smell in the dim passage, but there was a stench of money. Don't ask whether the smell was real or fake, he could really smell it.
When we walked inside, we suddenly saw many cargo boxes.
I opened it and saw...
Too dazzling.
The white snowflake silver, picked up a silver ingot of fifty taels.
When the red wooden boxes were opened, most of them were filled with silver ingots, while some were filled with various jewellery, jade and so on.
“It’s posted. It’s really posted.”
Lin Fan's little heart couldn't help but beat fast. He didn't expect that getting rich was so easy. The wealth accumulated by Black Stone Martial Arts School over decades should all be here.
No, perhaps it should be called a heavy private vault.
Even the deputy museum owner Xiao Wanjun probably doesn't know.
I put all the wooden boxes into the storage ring. I was lucky to have drawn a storage ring, otherwise it would have been difficult to take these silver coins out.
He didn't take away all the boxes.
Instead, three wooden boxes were left behind.
Privatization is privatization, but the bills still need to be paid, and this requires a clean record.
In addition to silver, there is also a simple bookshelf in the secret room.
There are several secret books on it.
Aoki Heart Sutra
I didn’t expect it to be a mental method.
However, he really looked down upon Shen Zhong’s cultivation method. How could it be compared with his divine skills?
However, it is still a good idea to supplement the martial arts library of Lin's Martial Arts School.
As for the other three books, they are about boxing, leg techniques, and palm techniques.
To Shen Zhong, these secret manuals might be very important, as they are martial arts that can lead to the true Qi realm. However, he is not very interested in martial arts practiced by the weak.
After getting everything done.
He looked at the situation at the scene, carefully touched and patted the wall to make sure there was nothing missing. After all, the second secret room did exist.
When they arrived at the courtyard, Mo Wangnian stood with his hands behind his back to maintain order.
The patrolmen carried out some things.
Some boxes contained some small change and some copper coins.
This is all visible money.
"What's in these three boxes..." Mo Wangnian asked.
Lin Fan didn't say any more nonsense and opened the box. A silvery light emerged, which made the surrounding patrolmen stare. After all, they had never seen so much silver before.
"One ingot is fifty taels, one box is five thousand taels, and three boxes are fifteen thousand taels. But I think the Black Stone Martial Arts School should have more than that. It may be stored somewhere else. We need to slowly search for it ourselves. We want to ask Shen Zhong for the location. From what I know about Shen Zhong, he would rather die with the location than tell us."
Lin Fan’s analysis was very thorough.
"Yes, Shen Zhong is a character. He knows that he has no hope, so he will definitely not say it." Mo Wangnian has served in Ankang County for such a long time, how could he not know what kind of person Shen Zhong is.
Time passed quickly and there were more and more goods in the yard.
But compared to those in the secret room, there is absolutely no comparison.
"Sir, everything is here." The patrolman reported.
Even the library was emptied.
Mo Wangnian had no interest in money. "Brother Lin, where do you think it would be best to put these things?"
"Brother Mo, do you believe me?" Lin Fan did not answer, but asked.
"letter."
Mo Wangnian nodded solemnly.
He naturally trusted Lin Fan.
Lin Fan said, "The Inspection Office is the Inspection Office. The business of Black Stone Martial Arts School has to continue to be maintained. I am not confident in handing it over to others. I will move everything to Lin's Martial Arts School. I will take over the business of Black Stone Martial Arts School and maintain its operation in the future."
"Okay, then it's a pleasant decision." Mo Wangnian nodded.
Just as the patrolmen were preparing to move it.
Lin Fan raised his hand and said, "Everyone has been busy since last night and must be a little tired. Each of you can take an ingot of fifty taels of silver."
"Thank you, sir."
"Thank you, sir."
The patrolmen's faces were all smiles, and the frustration of working overtime was gone.
Fifty taels.
This is many, many months’ salary.
Mo Wangnian didn't say anything. He could understand such behavior. He didn't ask the patrolmen to be truly honest. He only asked them to do practical things and not confuse right and wrong.
Besides, he also intended to let Lin Fan win over the patrolmen.
Because his goal is about to be achieved.
"Walk."
The crowd left the Black Stone Martial Arts School in a mighty procession. The patrolmen transported the things to the Lin Martial Arts School, while Lin Fan and Mo Wangnian headed towards the Inspection Office.
There is still a lot left to do.
Street.
The two of them were communicating.
"Does County Magistrate Wang really want to send so much?" Mo Wangnian asked.
"Send it. This guy is still useful to us. He came here in a hurry because he knew we were going to confiscate the Black Stone Martial Arts School. If we don't send him some, it will be difficult to get him to continue doing things for us in the future." Lin Fan said.
I can't bear to let the child catch the wolf.
County Magistrate Wang is very greedy.
When they returned to the Inspection Office, Shen Zhong and the others were still as haggard as before. When they heard approaching footsteps, Shen Zhong looked up, then lowered his head again, remaining silent without saying a word.
"Shen Zhong, where did you put all the money from the Black Stone Martial Arts School?" Lin Fan asked.
Shen Zhong slowly raised his head, grinned, and spoke word by word, "Don't even think about getting a single word from me. I tell you, the wealth of Black Stone Martial Arts School is beyond your imagination. You will never be able to find it."
"Hahaha……"
"Oh, well, forget it. I'm just asking." Lin Fan spread his hands and said helplessly.
Lin Fan's actions surprised Shen Zhong.
"Why don't you get angry and humiliate yourself? Why don't you torture me to extract a confession? I want you to not get any useful information in your anger. Why don't you get angry and humiliate yourself?" Shen Zhong roared, and the iron chains rattled.
"Why should I be angry? I regard money as dirt, just a passing cloud."
"Fuck you."
"Slap."
"Yes, my lord."
Snapped!
Snapped!
Snapped!
