Pig Killer

Chapter 268

Shen Hui'e shook her head and laughed when she heard this. This elder brother still has the mind to think about this?

Forget it, I won’t explain it anymore. Don’t make things worse.

Family members know their own affairs, and the true relationship between the two does not need to be told to others.

"Let's go!" Shen Hui'e looked at him with interest and said, "How was the casino yesterday?"

"They set up a game and helped us win a lot of money?" Shen Changsheng said happily when he heard that.

"You figured it out." Shen Hui'e raised her eyebrows and looked at him.

"It's obvious." Shen Changsheng shook his head and laughed, "They flirted with each other and teamed up to deceive a foreigner like me."

"Brother, you are quite famous!" Shen Hui'e said as she looked at him with a smile.

"All the rich people are on his list! Especially outsiders, they are the best fat sheep." Shen Changsheng said while driving the carriage.

"Then why did you lose again?" Shen Hui'e looked at him with her deep and penetrating black eyes.

"We don't want to attract other people's attention. Didn't you see how many people gathered behind us at the gambling table?" Shen Changsheng looked back at her and said, "There were three layers of people inside and outside, and some even followed us to place bets."

"Then you lose, and those who followed the bet will be happy." Shen Hui'e looked at him in surprise and said.

"I won't follow you after losing a few times." Shen Changsheng said with a gentle look in his eyes, and chuckled, "I really give in to the gambling ghost."

"What's wrong?" Shen Hui'e asked curiously.

"Just follow their lead and bet against them! I bet big and they bet small." Shen Changsheng couldn't help but smack his lips.

"Doesn't the banker have any ideas?" Shen Hui'e said, patting her thigh.

"He mainly wants to trick me!" Shen Changsheng said with a raised eyebrow.

"I want to get your secret recipe." Shen Hui'e said with her eyes slightly narrowed.

"That should be the case! This is a very profitable business." Shen Changsheng said with murderous intent in his dark eyes, "It can make us lose everything and get the secret recipe. This business is worth doing."

"They will do anything to achieve their goals. Do you want to stay?" Shen Hui'e looked at him worriedly.

"I also need time to go to the casino." Shen Changsheng chuckled.

"Since they have set their sights on a big fish like you, they will definitely send people to keep an eye on you. How can you act?" Shen Hui'e said to him with a frown.

"What should we do?" Shen Changsheng said nervously.

"We must not attract their attention. Da Chong's father and I will stay here." Shen Hui'e thought for a while and said.

"Is this okay? People are unfamiliar with this place." Shen Changsheng thought about it seriously and said, "I think it's better to do things in a hidden casino."

Shen Hui'e smiled and said, "That's fine too. The casino is also a hub for information."

"Isn't it?" Shen Changsheng raised his lips and smiled slightly, "Anyway, you guys are going to attack us anyway, so we can still keep this casino!"

"Of course it's banned." Shen Hui'e said without thinking, "Casinos are a hotbed of crime and must not be allowed to remain. How many families have been ruined by them."

"No, no!" Shen Changsheng said worriedly, "If it is really banned, will there be trouble?"

"Many lives have been lost in this casino. They are doomed to die." Shen Hui'e said with cold eyes.

"I know. They can't run away." Shen Changsheng snorted coldly, "There must be a noble person standing behind this casino." Then he added, "The one standing behind this casino is the county governor."

"Not surprising." Shen Hui'e's eyes froze as she said, "Since ancient times, prostitution and gambling have been inseparable. With the county governor's money-hungry personality, don't tell the brothel owner that he's the one behind it!"

"That's right." Shen Changsheng said, clenching the whip in his hand.

After paying the toll, Shen Changsheng drove the carriage into the city.

"We go in and out of the city so frequently, doesn't anyone suspect anything?" Shen Hui'e asked casually.

"They don't care if there's money to be made! I know all these guards." Shen Changsheng said with a smile on his face, "By the way, we'll destroy the casino business and kill those who should be killed! What about the brothel?"

"What do you think?" Shen Hui'e asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Most of those women were forced to do it, which is really pitiful." Shen Changsheng said with compassion in his eyes, "But if they don't do this, it seems that they can't do anything else. No matter what they do, people will despise them. They can't go home, because their families think they are a disgrace to the family. How can they not despise them when they eat and use the money earned by selling their bodies? People..." He pursed his lips and said, "I really don't know what to do?"

"You don't approve of them continuing to do this?" Shen Hui'e asked deliberately.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Shen Changsheng glanced at her unhappily and said, "Selling children, the black-hearted parents sold them to a filthy place. They support the family, but are still despised by the family. It's really..." He shook his head helplessly and said, "I saw it with my own eyes. It's really unpleasant."

"The brothels are closed now, what are you men going to do?" Shen Hui'e said sarcastically.

Shen Changsheng's face flushed upon hearing this, "Ordinary men can't get in, and can't afford to get in." He snorted coldly, "How can a nobleman go? They took a fancy to a woman and directly kidnapped her home."

Shen Hui'e looked at him in surprise, "You...you..."

"I've seen it before." Shen Changsheng said with emotion, "Only prodigals hang out in places of entertainment." He pursed his lips and said, "Is it really difficult to deal with?"

"They are girls from poor families. Let them make military uniforms and cloth shoes." Shen Hui'e said cheerfully.

Upon hearing this, Shen Changsheng turned around and looked at her with sparkling eyes and said, "This is a solution." He smiled and said, "This way, poor women will have a place to go. Weaving linen also needs women."

"Yes! Yes!" Shen Hui'e smiled and nodded slightly, "When the time comes, we will raise these pigs and make the soap, all of which will need to be done by women. I'm afraid men won't be happy about that!"

"Man?" Shen Changsheng imagined the scene and shuddered, not daring to think about it.

"Now that we have a place to go, I believe there won't be much resistance even if the brothel is closed." Shen Hui'e looked at him with her deep and bottomless eyes.

"This is a good thing, and they are against it!" Shen Changsheng looked at her with a puzzled look on his face.

"The madam is trying to scare them. Our army is full of men." Shen Hui'e said with cold eyes, "Think about the women who died tragically in the barracks outside the city. I am kind-hearted, and you can be selective. If you don't want to receive a guest, then don't." She snorted coldly, "Comparing the two, who do you believe?"

"Ahem..." Shen Changsheng coughed twice, "It's better to do business with the familiar than to do business with the stranger." He patted his dog-skin hat and said, "Why does this sound so awkward? Anyway, this is what I mean. People will definitely believe the madam."

"So!" Shen Hui'e looked at him with deep and bottomless eyes and said, "The madam brought the women to block the gate of the government office, throwing tantrums, crying, making a scene, and even threatening to hang themselves. Who can bear it?"

Shen Changsheng shuddered as he imagined the scene when he heard it.

"Is there no garrison in this city?" Shen Hui'e said, looking at him with her glassy eyes.

"There are a few, but they are all guarding the county governor's mansion." Shen Changsheng blinked his dark eyes and said, "I have been around this city. There is no place I cannot go to, and there is no barracks."

"What's the matter? Why are you asking this?" Shen Changsheng asked curiously.

"How are we going to place our people?" Shen Hui'e said to him, stroking her forehead.

"There are tens of thousands of soldiers outside the city! We only have 5,000." Shen Changsheng said without thinking.

"What about in the future? It can't be only five thousand!" Shen Hui'e said, looking at him with her bright black eyes.

"In the city..." Shen Changsheng sneered when he heard this, "The space vacated by those nobles' homes is more than enough."

"Also, let our people, no matter how rich they are in their lifetime, never break the law. Violators will be punished." Shen Hui'e said with her innocent big eyes as he turned his head in surprise.

"Why are you so surprised?" Shen Hui'e raised her eyebrows and looked at him and said, "I only saw the change of ownership, but not the destruction of the house." She looked at him with deep and penetrating eyes and said, "When you chop off their heads, their crimes must be announced loudly. Our people must also watch, don't break the law knowingly!" She looked at him with warm eyes and said, "People! You must be afraid, so you won't be reckless."

Shen Hui'e looked at his mouth which was opening wider and wider, and raised her eyebrows slightly and asked, "What's wrong, you don't want to?"

"No, no." Shen Changsheng shook his head vigorously, "It's good to warn the world."

"How are they going to arrange the shacks outside the city gate?" Shen Changsheng asked with concern, slowing down the carriage.

"After we open the warehouses and release the grain, we will give them seeds and let them go home to farm." Shen Hui'e said without thinking, "Those who took advantage of the situation to rob and attack others when they were down should be burned and the land should be returned to them." She looked at him with eyes like glass beads and said, "Just in time for spring ploughing."

"Haha..." Shen Changsheng laughed heartily when he heard this, "You should discuss these matters with your brother-in-law."

"Of course!" Shen Hui'e said with a smile.

"What should we do if my brother-in-law is not here?" Shen Changsheng turned around and continued to drive in the car.

"I'll go around and you make the arrangements yourself." Shen Hui'e looked at him with her eyes as black as jade.

"You are unfamiliar with the place, what can you see?" Shen Changsheng asked with concern.

"A bystander sees more clearly." Shen Hui'e raised her eyebrows slightly, revealing her black pupils as she looked at him and said.

"We are clearly seeing the same thing, but you always see something different." Shen Changsheng said with emotion.

"Read more bamboo slips! Think more!" Shen Hui'e smiled and said with the corners of her lips raised.

"Why can't I get something deeper from reading the same book?" Shen Changsheng sighed, "People are just different."

"Haha..." Shen Hui'e shook her head and laughed, "You can only read more about this and see how capable you are. I can't really teach you anything else."

"The master leads you to the door, but the practice is up to you." Shen Changsheng said with a grin, "That's just what I said."

As they were talking, Shen Changsheng and his companions arrived at Zuixian Tower. After Shen Hui'e returned to her room, she took a hot bath with clean clothes, ate a little, and then lay down on the warm kang to sleep.
