"alright!"
Lin Yu waved his hand, not intending to discuss the topic further. His expression darkened as he asked, "Did you bring Li Zhixi and Zhao Long back?"
Feng Jiu nodded quickly, "The person has been brought back, and Li Zhixi's 10 billion has been recovered!"
Lin Yu nodded. "Let's go take a look!"
A moment later, Lin Yu met Li Zhixi and Zhao Long.
At this moment, both of them knelt obediently on the ground, as if they had lost their parents.
"Lin, Young Marshal Lin!"
Upon seeing Lin Yu, Li Zhixi immediately crawled over on his knees, repeatedly kowtowing to the ground, pleading, "Please, have mercy on me! I truly know I was wrong!"
The dignified young master Xi was begging for mercy like a lapdog. If the second-generation rich kids in Yandu saw this, they would probably be shocked.
In fact, he was already considered lucky. Zhao Long, who was standing to the side, was so scared that he wet his pants and couldn't even speak.
They now know that Young Marshal Lin is the master of the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion.
They may not have heard of the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion before.
But I already remember it!
It is capable of independently possessing a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier battle group, as well as nuclear submarines.
Force the United States to pay war reparations!
Holy crap!
Who would have thought that such an awesome organization existed in this world!
On his way back, Li Zhixi truly felt like he wanted to die!
Of all people to mess with, he had to provoke this one!
Lin Yu gave him a half-smile and patted his cheek. "You know you were wrong? What did you do wrong?"
Li Zhixi said tremblingly, "I... I shouldn't have lied, I shouldn't have cheated Miss Lu out on her money!"
He now had a pretty good idea that Miss Lu must have some kind of relationship with the young marshal. Otherwise, the young marshal wouldn't have gone to such lengths.
Sure enough, Lin Yu narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "Looks like you're not stupid after all! Let me tell you the truth, Lu Xueqing is my wife. I already spared your life by giving you a ticket for bullying her in the stock market. But you just had to court death and try to scam my wife out of money. Do you think I'll let you off the hook?"
"Young Marshal, spare my life!" Li Zhixi hurriedly kowtowed. "I...I didn't know Miss Lu was your wife. If I had known, how could I have dared to do that! Please forgive me this time!"
"Spare you?" Lin Yu's lips curled slightly. "Don't worry, I won't kill you!"
Li Zhixi's face lit up with joy, "Thank you, young marshal..."
"Don't thank me yet!" Lin Yu said with a slight smile, "What I mean is, killing you would be too easy for you!"
"Forehead……"
"The new country has a criminal law called whipping, you know that, right?" Lin Yu asked with a sneer.
Li Zhixi looked horrified.
Whipping?
Is it the kind of thing where you hit someone with a bamboo stick?
Oh my god, that must hurt so much!
Lin Yu's lips curled slightly, "Before you came back, I had someone soak the bamboo strips. They're quite soft now, making them even more refreshing to smoke!"
"It's said that most people can't withstand six lashes. I hope you can take on the challenge and break the record!"
As soon as he finished speaking, two tall men walked over and lifted Li Zhixi up.
"No, no..."
Li Zhixi struggled frantically.
But it was obviously useless, and he was soon taken to the torture chamber.
"Ah, help me—"
Soon after, a beautiful scream came from the torture chamber.
Zhao Long, who was standing to the side, was so frightened that he fainted before it was even his turn.
Lin Yu snorted and instructed Feng Jiu, "These two bastards, lock them in the jail and beat them in turns. After they're ripped open, use Yunnan Baiyao to heal them, then continue beating them!"
"Furthermore, expose the crimes of these two individuals to the public, thoroughly investigate the Hongluan Chamber of Commerce, and confiscate the Li family's property!"
"Yes, young marshal!"
...
Half a day later, the Yandu Prefecture made public the crimes of Li Zhixi and Zhao Long.
The bank depositors' money was successfully recovered.
The money that the bigwigs in Guanzhong were swindled out of was also returned along the way.
All of this was personally overseen by the Imperial Inspector!
The depositors were moved to tears, and the bigwigs were also extremely grateful!
The first major case handled by the Imperial Inspector after taking office caused a sensation throughout the country!
At the same time, the Eight Prefectural Inspectors ordered a thorough investigation of the Hongluan Chamber of Commerce.
During the thorough investigation, the Hongluan Chamber of Commerce was found to have engaged in multiple illegal activities, including malicious monopoly and unfair competition, and the Li family will face huge fines.
To pay the fine, Li Fengxiang sold off his assets on the west coast. Subsequently, the Chamber of Commerce's stock price plummeted, collapsing and facing delisting.
Overwhelmed with grief and indignation, Li Fengxiang suffered a stroke and was rushed to the hospital, where he nearly died.
Thus, the Hongluan Chamber of Commerce, one of the three major chambers of commerce in Yandu, was permanently dethroned and had no chance of ever making a comeback.
With the collapse of the Hongluan Chamber of Commerce, some large and small companies and families that relied on it also suffered annihilation.
The Xu family in Guanzhong suffered the most!
Xu Chengyi had placed all his bets on Li Zhixi, and with the collapse of Hongluan Venture Capital, the Xu family's hopes for a rise were completely extinguished.
Lord Xu's condition worsened, and he could no longer hold on. He vomited three liters of blood and almost died in his own villa.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, the bank came to collect the debt and ordered Lord Xu to vacate the house as soon as possible. Lord Xu, who was about to die, was so angry that he came back to life.
She only completely fainted after being helped out of the gate by the butler.
"My lord! My lord!!"
Xu Chengyi woke up the next day.
He opened his eyes, which were bloodshot and filled with murderous intent.
"Lin Yu, you brat, I will never forgive you!"
In Xu Chengyi's view, the Xu family's miserable state was all thanks to Lin Yu! How could he not hate him?
At this moment, he was penniless and homeless. His only remaining servants were his loyal old butler and his assistant, Liu Quan.
At this moment, Liu Quan stepped forward, pursed his lips, and said, "My lord, Lin Yu is currently at the height of his power. In my opinion, we shouldn't go against him. You still have the letter of recommendation he wants, which is our only bargaining chip! Why don't you take this opportunity to make peace with him? Perhaps you can gain some leverage in return!"
