Republic of China: My great warlord, many children, many blessings.

Moreover, we paid the taxes and received the land title for this land.

"Are you saying I'm here to rip you off?"

"No, no, of course not, how could you be so heartless?"

"Enough with the nonsense, are you going to hand over the grain for these three acres of land or not?"

“Master Wu, this land was indeed reclaimed by our family, and we have a land deed. We really can’t hand over the land.”

Our whole family worked ourselves to the bone to clear this wasteland. We barely managed to get a bite to eat, and if we handed it over, the whole family would starve to death.

"Hmph, this is my territory. You think you can eat if you don't pay rent?"

Smash the pots and pans and take all the grain!

"Yes"

Soon, several henchmen smashed all the water tanks and cooking pots in the farmer's house.

The house was turned upside down and was in complete disarray.

They took all the grain and land deeds.

After the guard finished reporting, Cheng Shuzhen angrily said, "Another bully who uses his power to bully others!"

After saying that, he cracked his whip and charged forward.

Shen Hao was taken aback, not expecting Cheng Shuzhen to be so righteous and indignant.

He smiled and followed.

140. Those twin daughters must be 15 by now.

The already dilapidated house was now in even greater disarray.

"Your Wu family is unreasonable; what right do you have to seize my land?"

"Hmph, this is the burial ground of my Wu family. If you dare to desecrate it without permission, you're courting death!"

"I've been a long-term laborer in your Wu family for three years, how come I didn't know this was your Wu family's cemetery?"

Sitting on the sedan chair, Master Wu's face froze for a moment, then he roared, "Damn it, you dare to talk back? Beat him!"

Immediately, several henchmen picked up sticks and began to beat him.

They even picked up the old man's child and dropped him to the ground.

"I'm going to the county seat to sue you."

"Sue me? The county magistrate of Lianzhou is my second uncle. A peasant has the life of a peasant."

boom!

Then a gunshot rang out, startling everyone.

"Damn it, you bastard, how dare you bully others by abusing your power?"

Cheng Shuzhen took the lead, pointing her gun at Master Wu.

The other person turned pale with fright.

He hurriedly said, "Heroine, please don't be impulsive. Let's talk this out."

Cheng Shuzhen sneered, "You bastard, you're bullying people because of your power, aren't you? I'll beat you to death today!"

"I really didn't bully anyone; I was just collecting rent from my own family."

The old man hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed, saying, "No, this is three mu of wasteland that I reclaimed. I have already paid the taxes in the county and received the land deed. This is the certificate with the official seal of the county magistrate."

Cheng Shuzhen took it and looked at it; it really was true.

Master Wu retorted, "That's definitely fake. I'm sure of it. If you don't believe me, go confront the county magistrate."

Shen Hao also came over at this time, riding a horse, with more than twenty guards beside him, but they were not wearing military uniforms, but ordinary training clothes.

Even so, its imposing presence is terrifying.

Master Wu's heart skipped a beat; he sensed he was in trouble.

These men had bulging waists, clearly indicating they all carried guns.

All twenty men were armed and were there to protect the men on horseback.

The person on horseback must be someone extraordinary.

Shen Hao walked over.

I glanced at the land deed and it was genuine.

It is obvious that this was Master Wu blatantly seizing the land deed.

Shen Hao said calmly, "Arrest him, investigate what other illegal or disorderly conduct he has done, and if so, execute him in public."

"Yes"

Without saying a word, the guards tied up Master Wu, and the lackeys were so frightened that their faces turned pale.

At this moment, Master Wu was no longer arrogant and domineering as before, and knelt down in front of Shen Hao.

"Sir, I was wrong, I will definitely compensate you."

Cheng Shuzhen kicked him and said angrily, "You dog, where did your arrogance go?"

"You're bullying people because of your power, aren't you?"

Then, he said to the old man kneeling on the ground, "You can speak your grievances now. Today, my master will stand up for you."

The villagers looked at each other, not daring to speak.

They didn't know Shen Hao's identity. If they offended Master Wu and Shen Hao simply walked away, they would face endless retribution.

Shen Hao said, "Arrest them first, and torture them severely. Starting today, we will launch a crackdown in Qing City, Shao City, and Pu City."

The county magistrate brought all the local gentry and bullies who oppressed the people to justice.

Shuzhen is leaving this matter to you.

"Yes, sir," Cheng Shuzhen replied excitedly.

After saying that, Shen Hao stopped paying attention. What might be a huge deal for an ordinary person was nothing to Shen Hao.

He stopped paying attention and believed that Cheng Shuzhen could handle it.

People who hate evil so much truly cannot tolerate any injustice.

Shen Hao left ten guards for Cheng Shuzhen and then went back.

Sure enough, as soon as Shen Hao left, Cheng Shuzhen quickly obtained a lot of evidence against Master Wu through anonymous reports.

"Murder, arson, and oppression of the people—they deserve to die!"

Immediately, Cheng Shuzhen addressed the crowd, saying, "Today, this kind of wicked person should be executed."

A gunshot rang out!

The once-powerful Master Wu, who dominated the village, is gone just like that.

The people applauded enthusiastically.

Cheng Shuzhen said, "Go and gather one hundred men and send them directly to the Lianzhou County government office."

"Yes"

Meanwhile, Cheng Shuzhen ransacked Master Wu's house without stopping.

He owned over 3,000 mu of land, 30,000 silver dollars in assets, and antique paintings.

Confiscated directly.

The villagers who witnessed this scene were all delighted and applauded.

That same day, Cheng Shuzhen killed Wu Danli, the magistrate of Lianzhou County.

The house was confiscated for 12 silver dollars and countless antiques.

That evening, Shen Hao was overjoyed when he saw the 150,000 silver dollars. Sure enough, when you're broke, robbery is the fastest way to make money.

With two cities and more than a dozen counties, Shen Hao wanted to see how much he could embezzle.

This matter was entrusted to Cheng Shuzhen.

Shen Hao stopped caring and just sat there collecting money.

· ···Request flowers·· ······

As for the extra land, Shen Hao registered it all under his own name and rented it out, charging them 10% tax each year.

If you just distribute the money directly, these people won't even remember your kindness.

The next day, Huang Qiying came to work and was taken to the army's training ground by Shen Hao.

At the same time, the entire Qingshi gentry lived in fear.

The news about Master Wu from Lianzhou yesterday has already spread.

This terrified them all, and some were even preparing to pack their bags and run away.
