River-Mixing Dragon violently died.

It only takes a moment for the rabbit to rise and the falcon to fall.

Captain Yang breathed a sigh of relief, stretched out his right hand from the cuff without any trace, and cupped his hand with a smile.

"As expected of Mr. Zhou, Yang will remember the life-saving grace!"

"The duty lies."

Zhou Yi's eyes flashed, and he just sensed a wave of spiritual energy coming from Captain Yang's cuffs.

Fu Zhuan, or Mystic Item?

Only then did all the jailers come to their senses, and they all stepped forward to surround River-Mixing Dragon, locking him with several chains. If he checked his breathing and heart pulse, he was already dead.

Zhou Yi said, "Master Xiaowei, this must be an accident. Don't express your anger."

"Of course it was an accident. Yang can trust you all."

Captain Yang is confident that all the jailers have surrendered. River-Mixing Dragon's breaking away from the chains must have been done by Lieutenant Ma who was on duty at night, because Warden Wu has already joined the gang.

"Master Zhou, are you interested in taking up the post of school captain?"

Zhou Yi cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your kindness, sir. We are used to being undisciplined and cannot be an official."

"It doesn't matter."

Captain Yang pointed at Old Lei: "Lei Chapiao, are you interested?"

Old Lei was caught off guard, his expression changed for a long time, and he bowed and said, "Sir, if you have the urge, don't dare to disobey!"

"Okay!"

Captain Yang stroked his hands and said, "Tonight, I'm calling all my brothers to go to Happy Forest for a drink."

All the jailers looked at each other, wondering what Captain Yang meant.

Happy Forest.

Shenjing Pleasure Quarter opened less than a month ago.

There are six floors from bottom to top. Among the tallest buildings in Shenjing, the nearby Spring Breeze Pavilion suddenly became shorter.

Moreover, the oiran Spring Breeze Pavilion had just selected at the end of last year suddenly became Happy Forest's number one.

Now Shenjing has become the first Pleasure Quarter, and it is none other than Happy Forest.

Lower value.

Captain Yang brought all the jailers to have a drink. The sun had not yet set, and there was a lot of traffic outside Happy Forest's door, and there were many guests inside.

When the madam saw Captain Yang entering the door, she quickly twisted her waist and came over.

"My boss, Mr. Lu has been here for a long time and is waiting for you on the sixth floor."

"Got it."

Captain Yang greeted and led everyone to the Wealth Hall on the second floor.

On the way, many guests greeted him with different names, such as Boss Yang, Master Yang, Mr. Yang, Young Master Yang and so on.

Wealthy Hall.

Captain Yang sat at the top, Zhou Yi and Old Lei sat on the left and right, and the other jailers took their seats one after another.

Then two rows of beautiful women came in, one behind each jailer, serving wine and serving dishes, serving them meticulously and thoughtfully.

"I made my brothers suffer a few days ago."

Captain Yang held the wine glass and said, "Yang did this for the sake of your future. By exploiting prisoners and accepting bribes and corruption, it will not last long after all. You will eventually spit out whatever you gain."

The jailers didn't know why, so they waited for the next sentence.

"Instead of being ransacked and exiled, it would be better to have clean hands and feet and be comfortable on duty."

Captain Yang continued, "Yang understood that it was not easy for Shenjing to live, so he opened this Happy Forest. The money earned includes your participation, and the profit sharing is only a lot more than before!"

"This..."

The jailers looked puzzled. They were greedy but not stupid. How could a mere subordinate staff share the money?

"This silver is also related to you."

Captain Yang explained, "Originally, prisoners in the prison had to use money to buy good food and housing, which is against the law. Now you only need to come to the second floor of Happy Forest and buy some designated refreshments to take care of your loved ones in the prison."

"That's it."

All the jailers thought that it was worse than before, but after suffering a few months of poverty, it seemed like a great thing now.

What Captain Yang said is indeed true. Accepting bribes in private is not safe after all. Now that Happy Forest is covering up, the money has been washed away, and even the imperial censor can't find any evidence of guilt!

All the jailers said in unison, "Master Yang has thought carefully, and we will only obey your orders!"

"Okay! Yinsheng!"

Captain Yang changed from his former coldness and spoke more naturally. In just a short time, all the jailers were moved to tears of gratitude and wished they could swear to the sky that they would confide in him.

Zhou Yi watched with cold eyes, feeling faintly disappointed in his heart, and at the same time, he felt a little afraid of Captain Yang.

Originally, Yu Su said that Captain Yang was a tycoon, but Zhou Yi didn't take it seriously. He only knew that a mean and ungrateful person who ruthlessly oppressed his subordinates was not a tycoon. He could only be a withered bone in the grave.

A hero should not only be ruthless, but also know how to be kind.

"Now it seems that I am still good at judging people."

Zhou Yi sighed sadly in his heart, but was smiling on the outside, exchanging glasses of wine with his colleagues very enthusiastically.

The world is tough, and no one is wearing a few masks!

"Brothers, please eat and drink without paying."

Captain Yang stood up and said, "Luyang Prefecture Lu Family Second Young Master, I have something to discuss with you, so I'll excuse you for now. When you go out to have a drink in the future, come straight to Happy Forest, and just use Yang's name!"

"Master Yang, go and get busy."

"We are the only ones who are following the lead."

All the jailers gave him a respectful farewell and then came back to continue drinking. The atmosphere became much more lively.

The prospect described by Captain Yang is too broad. The way to make money is not just miscellaneous money. The prisoner in Heavenly Prison has clearly marked the price. With him as the matchmaker, he will definitely be able to sell it at a high price.

Zhou Yi praises Captain Yang's methods. He first shows his power and his virtue is doubled, and he first shows his virtue and his power is lost.

Commonly known as, give a sweet date with a slap.

The routine may seem vulgar, but it accurately controls people's hearts and can be used to no avail.

Old Lei After being promised a promotion, if he survives for more than ten years or passes the throne to his son, he may not be able to regain the glory of his ancestors in the future.

"Old Zhou, Master Yang, why did you arrest so many of your colleagues in the first place?"

"Those who can't resist temptation can easily cause trouble. They should not be worthy of Mr. Yang's friendship."

Zhou Yi answered with a smile, but it cannot be said that he was excluding dissidents.

"That's it."

Old Lei laughed and said, "Fortunately, I held back and was recognized by Mr. Yang. I am living a happy life here Happy Forest!"

The jailers all agreed, "What Lieutenant Lei said makes sense."

"I still like Spring Breeze Pavilion!"

Zhou Yi's words silenced the scene, and then became heated again, but these words would definitely reach Captain Yang's ears, and he was completely outside the circle.

The next day.

Zhou Yi points to the value.

Warden Feng gave a book with the name of the prisoner written on it.

According to the marked circles, crosses and hooks, they are thick porridge, meat and wine respectively. They are all old relatives who spent money at Happy Forest.

Zhou Yi I learned yesterday that a plate of fennel beans and a bowl of wine were priced at one hundred taels.

Warden Feng whispered, "Old Zhou, follow Captain Yang to be popular and drink spicy food. With your ability, you can get glory and wealth at your fingertips, why bother to be stubborn?"

"Huh?"

Zhou Yi raised his eyebrows, Mr. Zhou has become older since yesterday.

B-6 prison.

Zhou Yi squatted outside the fence and handed the pig's trotters and wine to Yu Su.

Yu Su took a sip and said to Outer Dao, "Today, Pear Blossom White, let alone fifty years, what happy events are there?"

Zhou Yi said, "Lao Yu, I'm leaving."

Yu Su was stunned for a moment and was not persuaded to stay. It seemed that these strange people were all determined.

"Why?"

Zhou Yi said, "I am hiding in Heavenly Prison for peace and quiet. Now it is almost a vegetable market. How can I not run away?"

Yu Su said, "How about I talk to Yang Zheng and stop bothering you?"

Zhou Yi refused. "Just the jailer, if you Yu Qingtian are allowed to speak, then Yang Zheng still won't check my details?"

"Same."

Yu Su said with a sad face, "It's a pity, there will be no pig trotters to eat in the future."

Zhou Yi said, "What do you guys want to eat? Yang Zheng why don't you rush to deliver it?"

"The food you gave me makes me feel comfortable."

Yu Su said, "It was given by someone else... tsk, it doesn't smell good!"

Zhou Yi smiled and said, "Then don't eat it. Eat less greasy food as you get older. Don't you often say that you will keep it useful?"

Yu Su muttered impatiently, "If you don't want to eat, you won't eat. Why are you so nagging!"

"Gone."

Zhou Yi turned around happily without any nostalgia.

After a while, a Yu Su shout came from behind.

"Old Zhou, I have no children. Remember to burn a few more stacks of paper. Don't go to the underworld and still be a poor man!"

Zhou Yi didn't look back and waved his hand to show that he heard.

"Remember!"
