At this time, there was only one person who was most panicked, and that was Nian An. He knew that Fang Zhiyi seemed to have escaped, and he was very flustered, fearing that Fang Zhiyi would retaliate against him. He hurriedly shouted: "Sir! Why don't you arrest this bully? I testify! He is the bandit leader who led people to rob government grain! There was also him, him, and him that day!" He pointed out several people in a row.
Everyone at the scene looked at him.
This time, there was a unanimous expression of contempt.
The prefect, who had just smiled at Huang Weixing, frowned and asked Magistrate Hu, "Who is this man?"
"My lord, he is Fang Zhiyi's adopted son. He said..." One side of County Magistrate Hu's face was swollen at this time. He saw the threatening look of his boss, and County Magistrate Hu's IQ temporarily dropped along with the pain.
"This man murdered someone in the street. After being arrested, he claimed to be Fang Zhiyi's adopted son and said Fang Zhiyi was the leader in stealing government grain..."
The prefect glanced at Huang Weixing and asked, "You believe what a thug says casually?"
County Magistrate Hu understood.
"Sir, everything I say is true! I can swear..." Nian An hadn't finished speaking when County Magistrate Hu came over quickly and the officers and soldiers made way for him. "I swear..."
"Pa!" A slap in the same style hit his face. Nian An felt a buzzing in his ears and a lot of gold appeared in front of his eyes.
"Catch him! Take him away! Good! For trial!" County Magistrate Hu waved his hands, and the frustration in his heart finally eased a little.
Everyone in the western suburbs felt that today was an exciting day. Officers and soldiers came and went in a hurry. County Magistrate Hu had suffered a setback today and even smiled apologetically to Huang Weixing before leaving.
They are all confused now and don't know what is going on.
Fang Zhiyi also refused to allow them to approach the backyard. Liu Acai and Chen Huaimin stood on either side of the doorway. Liu Acai kept staring at Chen Huaimin's broken leg, then occasionally at his own leg, a look of melancholy on his face. Chen Huaimin, on the other hand, was lost in thought, as if he had guessed something.
In the yard, Huang Weixing reported on his work this time, and Fang Zhiyi closed his eyes and listened.
He followed Fang Zhiyi's arrangement and headed north. He first used money to pave the way for him to get to know a playboy, and then used the methods taught by Fang Zhiyi to get to know some officials.
"Teacher, as you said, the court is in chaos now, and corrupt officials are everywhere. As long as the money is in place, many things will be easy to handle." Huang Weixing rubbed his hands, "It's just that the money is a bit too much..." He felt a little embarrassed.
Fang Zhiyi waved his hand: "Silver without gold is just like stone."
Huang Weixing smiled. He didn't ask for favors, he just wanted to make friends. After a while, the money was enough, and he soon won over a group of corrupt officials.
Huang Weixing said seriously, "Teacher, when I received your letter, I immediately asked someone to find a high-ranking official to discuss the lottery ticket business."
Fang Zhiyi nodded.
After the first-rank official learned about the lottery business, he was very tempted. Huang Weixing used his eloquent tongue to talk about Fang Zhiyi's advantages, anti-counterfeiting technology, etc., and he quickly fell into the trap.
But the next day, Huang Weixing was leaving. The high-ranking official was puzzled. Why would he walk away from such a good business deal? When he learned that a minor county magistrate was trying to cut off his financial resources, he was immediately furious, leading to the scene today.
"Teacher, I'd like to ask what to do next." Huang Weixing asked, "Also, I don't understand why."
Fang Zhiyi sighed: "If you don't ask why, maybe you will know later."
"Next, you'll have to work hard to spread the news to the other two senior officials." Fang Zhiyi tapped his fingers on the table. "Only by involving more people can our position be stable."
