Captain Ye paused again and said:
“This is Brother Hou’s ancestral home, where five generations have lived.
"I was young and frivolous, didn't know how to control myself, and made a big mistake. Now I've returned, and I'm as good as gold. Please give me a chance."
Hou Xiangyang looked at the sword-wielding woman standing behind Zhao Que, and the wounds on her body that had not yet healed were aching slightly.
But he looked at Captain Ye again and immediately felt more confident. He quietly moved behind him and said:
"That's right, that's right. For the past few years, I've been unable to sleep or eat well, and my late parents have been appearing in my dreams year after year.
Please satisfy my filial piety. The current market price of this house is only over a thousand yuan, and I am willing to increase the price by three levels.
Please give me some face, sir. I owe you a favor, and we can have a drink together with Captain Ye."
At this moment, Hou Xiangyang portrayed himself as a filial son, hoping to impress this person with his human feelings.
Then he expressed his good intentions. If it were an ordinary person, there would be no room for resistance after these few words.
"I'm sorry, I really like this place and don't want to trade it."
Zhao Que heard this without thinking.
Upon hearing the rejection, Captain Ye's face suddenly turned dark. He looked cold and stared at Zhao Que fiercely, and Hou Xiangyang also abandoned his polite appearance.
He shouted loudly, his eyes full of threats:
"Don't be ungrateful. This is Yangzhou. If something unexpected happens, it will be hard to say..."
Captain Ye interrupted him and said slowly, "I am the chief captain of Yangzhou.
My duties are to apprehend criminals and patrol the city... Why are you being so disrespectful to me? Is there something in this yard that is unseen?
If that's the case, for the safety of the city, I might need to bring someone to check it out."
As soon as these words came out, the people watching the show around them whispered, "Hey... this person looks unlucky, how dare he refuse like this."
"Yeah, being targeted by Captain Ye...it won't end well."
Seeing the noisy situation, Captain Ye turned back and gave a cold warning. Those who were talking immediately dared not say anything more for fear of getting into trouble.
After all, Captain Ye's way of arresting criminals is to bring a group of people to smash and destroy things in your house.
Even if it was in a rice jar, he would break it open, saying that there must be criminals hiding there.
I won't take anything from you, I'll just come once every two weeks or once a month.
You can't live a normal life with this kind of behavior.
The family who was treated in this way reported it to the prefect, but the prefect talked it over.
I won't hit you or scold you, I'll just leave you alone. It's been delayed enough, and now is the time.
Let’s just say that Captain Ye is very dedicated to his duties. He doesn’t miss any clues and works overtime to check your house to see if there are any criminals. He is doing this for your own good.
They even gave them rewards, which left those who offended Captain Ye with nowhere to seek justice.
I had no choice but to leave my hometown and this city.
This is power. Officials protect each other, even a small chief constable.
The people do not fight with the officials. That’s all.
When no one spoke, all in awe of the power of the man before them, a thin scholar opened his mouth and said:
"Captain Ye, this young man is my good friend, can you please keep an eye on me..."
When Captain Ye heard the voice, he turned around and saw that the person speaking was the second son of the Wang family - Wang Fang.
A sick scholar who took exams for several years but never passed the examination to become a scholar is nothing but a waste.
My favorite thing is to meddle in other people's affairs.
"Young Master Wang, if Old Master Wang were here, I would naturally give him some respect.
But as for you, you should go back and study harder, and get a good degree first.
Now I am still a student in the Wang family, but I am not very pretty. "
Captain Ye naturally would not listen to what this person said, seeing that Zhao Que still had a calm expression.
There was some viciousness in his eyes, he was just a useless person with no cultivation.
He took two steps forward, and the pressure from his innate powerhouse suddenly came out towards Zhao Que.
Dongqu behind him hurried forward and blocked the pressure.
"Perfect the day after tomorrow? That's not bad, kid. I'll give you another chance. Whether you want to sell this house or not, give me the money."
Captain Ye has lost his patience at this moment. If he can't catch this person, then does that mean he can be bullied by everyone?
No matter how I survive in Yangzhou, I still need to establish my authority.
At this moment, Hou Xiangyang also took out a handful of silver from the box in the cart and threw it at Zhao Que.
"I'm determined to buy this yard. If you don't sell it, we'll see."
At this moment, Zhao Que took the silver coins, looked at them, and revealed a strange smile.
"Oh, you're just a captain of the police. How dare you speak so arrogantly? I didn't know who you were. Who did you think you were?"
A faint voice came from behind, it was Zhao Li.
He waited for a while, but saw no one, so he came out to see what was going on. Seeing this scene, he snorted coldly.
When Hou Xiangyang heard this voice, he didn't think twice and said in a bully-like manner:
"Who are you? You don't even recognize Chief Constable Ye? In Yangzhou, Chief Constable Ye is the law!"
Captain Ye was a little stunned at this moment. He seemed to have heard this voice before...
I couldn't help but feel my fingers trembling slightly, so I swallowed and raised my head.
Looking at Zhao Li's face, although he had only met him once, he would never dare to forget him.
While Hou Xiangyang was still trying to threaten him and seeing the surprised eyes of the onlookers, he immediately knelt down.
He kowtowed repeatedly to apologize until blood flowed from his forehead and the blue bricks on the ground were broken by his knees. He said:
