This puzzled him even more.
As the top master in Luozhou, even the strongest person Wan Zhuliu has ever seen, would the Black Dragon King be short of women?
Unless he has some special hobbies.
Obviously, the probability of this is not high.
After all, the previous leader of the Black Dragon King was his adopted son.
In this case, the leader of the Bu Gang is his daughter-in-law, and Hong Youling is his granddaughter.
But he had met the Black Dragon King several times and felt that although this man was somewhat insidious and cunning, he did not seem to be a madman or a pervert. Instead, he had the demeanor of a strong man.
Therefore, he really wanted to use Hong Youling to find out what the Black Dragon King's real purpose was.
"Hey, did you hear what I said?"
It wasn't until Hong Youling screamed again that Wan Zhuliu came to his senses.
He nodded. "I understand what you mean, but I already have a wife. If you are willing, I am willing to go through the three letters and six ceremonies, marry you formally, and take you as my concubine!"
Hearing this, Hong Youling's attitude softened slightly.
But she still grumbled, "You men, besides fooling around, don't you have any other hobbies?"
Wan Zhuliu was speechless.
The two looked at each other and then looked away.
After a long while, Hong Youling spoke again, "I can be your second wife, and you will also have a share in the Cloth Gang. However... within ten years, you must unconditionally allow the Black Wind Hall to protect the Cloth Gang's business."
"no problem!"
Wan Zhuliu agreed readily.
There is an essential difference between the Cloth Gang and the Black Wind Hall. The Cloth Gang is actually the same as the Horse Gang and the Rice Gang. It mainly focuses on the purchase, production and transportation of cloth. The power within the gang is still to protect the business.
To put it bluntly, the Black Wind Hall is a black organization.
They are engaged in murder and robbery, and are underground organizations that run casinos, pleasure boats, and charge some land fees.
Therefore, the cloth gangs have greater potential for development and are less likely to be cracked down by the government.
Although the Black Wind Hall is powerful, it is not a big problem as long as it is in this gray industry and has good relations with the government. However, once any problems arise, or if the higher-ups find out about it, it will probably bring disaster.
Therefore, using the Black Wind Hall to provide blood transfusions to the Cloth Gang was Wan Zhuliu's original plan.
After unifying the underground forces in Luozhou, he would no longer continue to expand the influence of the Black Wind Hall.
Then focus on the Bu Gang.
This is what he learned from Tianji Tower.
To put it bluntly, the government also needs to exchange interests. As long as different levels of forces are involved in different links of this business and everyone benefits, there will be no fundamental problems.
Groups like the horse caravans were almost ready to enclose land and become kings, but the provincial government still turned a blind eye to them, and even the imperial court at the top did not care.
Fundamentally speaking, the horse caravans are the most effective means of relieving the imperial court of its worries in the north.
It can be said that the largest portion of the silver and money that Luozhou paid to the court every year, apart from salt and iron, came from the horse caravans, which amounted to as much as 600,000 taels of silver.
It should be noted that the entire Luozhou only has an annual revenue of about two million taels, and the Great Yan court only generates 9.6 million taels of treasury revenue a year.
The Bu Gang could contribute more than 100,000 taels every year.
Therefore, the state government would like to see the Bu Gang survive and even continue to develop.
Seeing his decisive answer, Hong Youling finally smiled with satisfaction.
"Your name is Wan Zhuliu, right?"
"Yes, what's wrong?"
"Okay, Wan Zhuliu, I'll give you half a month to prepare the engagement. I'll stay in the state capital and choose a date for your marriage! But before that, you can't... you can't do that with other women..."
“…”
Wan Zhuliu nodded, "No problem, I'll take you to my house first."
"No, I can't live in your house before I get married."
After hesitating for a moment, "Okay, I'll arrange for someone to let you stay at the inn!"
The two chatted for a while before Hong Youling left.
Looking at the other person's slim back, Wan Zhuliu shook his head slightly.
After a moment, he called his subordinates over.
"Make arrangements. Change the courtyard and place the women we sent this time. I'll come back later!"
It's impossible not to touch these women.
He is not trying to satisfy his own desires, those are attribute points!
If you leave it there and don't take it out, you will be unable to sleep or eat.
After leaving the yard, he came to Yubu.
On the way to the attic, I happened to meet You Lian.
"Sir, you're here? It just so happens that the prefecture has an important case that requires the cooperation of our Feather Department. This is an official document sent by the Criminal Court. Please take a look!"
Wan Zhuliu took it and took a quick look at it.
It is said that far away in Heishui County, where Xuanyan Lake is located, a village disappeared inexplicably. The patrol officers who went to investigate went there twice, but both times they lost contact for no reason. The criminal justice department also went there once, but returned empty-handed. After the matter was reported to the higher authorities, an official document was issued, and the criminal justice department, the patrol department, and the state investigation office (Yu Department) were jointly responsible for investigating the matter.
He took on the title of deputy warden in the prison, and he would do his best in both public and private matters.
However, because of the Zheng family's affairs recently, he has no desire to take action personally.
"Are there any others in the Yubu area?"
"Some have gone to assist in the case, and a few have taken leave. The newcomers have not yet been selected. Currently, Tieyu is the only one in the Yu Department!" You Lian replied immediately.
"Then let Tieyu go!"
"Could it be that Tieyu's strength is a little lacking? I heard that several patrol officers have been killed in this case, and one patrol officer in the Bone Forging Realm is missing!"
"oh?!!"
Wan Zhuliu frowned, his attention focused on the following sentence.
