Zhou Fu's words seemed to have opened the door to a new world for the two of them.
As the saying went, it was easy to avoid the King of Hell, but difficult to deal with the little ghosts.
The constables and constables on the list were the lowest in the bureaucratic system, but they had the power to investigate and arrest. They were the evil ghosts in the eyes of the commoners.
Usually, these 'evil ghosts' were raised freely. Now that they had fallen into Zhou Fu's hands, the scene on the East Pier in the future …
Huang Feng and Chen Guhong suddenly felt a gust of cold wind blowing into their collars. They couldn't help but shiver. Then, they buried their heads and silently memorized the list.
Seeing that the two of them stopped talking, Zhou Fu got some peace and quiet. He closed his eyes slightly, then activated the Qi and blood in his body to check his body.
In the past two days of continuous battles, he didn't have time to heal his injuries. He relied on his own recovery ability to endure. Now that he had time, he naturally had to check and recuperate.
After about twenty minutes, Huang Feng and Yu Zhenghai had almost memorized everything that they needed to remember.
It was impossible to memorize the entire list.
Therefore, they only memorized the names of the constables. As for the constables under the constables, they didn't need to worry about them.
At this moment, footsteps were heard outside the door.
"Young Master, Shopkeeper Jin is here." Yuzhu's voice was heard.
Zhou Fu opened his mouth and said, "Let him in."
Jin Peng, who was outside the door, first thanked Yuzhu, then pushed the door open and entered.
He walked into the room and bowed. "Greetings, Sir."
"Have a seat."
"Yes."
Jin Peng turned to look at Chen Guhong and Huang Feng. He smiled and then sat down next to Chen Guhong.
Zhou Fu asked, "What happened to the steward surnamed Shi?"
"Sir, he has already spoken." Jin Peng took out a few pieces of paper. On them were Shopkeeper Shi's words.
Seeing that Jin Peng was about to stand up and deliver the papers, Zhou Fu waved his hand. "No need, just say it."
"Yes.
According to Mr. Shi, a man in black broke into his house one night half a month ago. He held a knife in front of his eyes and threatened that if any of his workers dared to go to the Huang Jia and Chen family shops to buy things, he would be killed. "
"Later, the black-clothed man even gave him fifty taels of silver.
Therefore, the one surnamed Shi followed the black clothed man's instructions. "
"So he doesn't know who that person is?"
"Yes, from the beginning to the end, Caretaker Shi did not know who the other party was.
Moreover, the silver that the Black-Silver man gave him is the kind that is commonly seen in the market. There is no special mark on it, so there is no way to investigate it. "
"Haha, your hands and feet are clean." Zhou Fu laughed.
Thinking about the burning of Huang Jia's shop, it was normal that the other party did not leave a message. If they really did leave a message, Zhou Fu would have to make a careful judgment.
"My Lord, how should we deal with that Shi fellow?"
Zhou Fu thought for a moment and said, "Put him back. Get someone to keep a close eye on him and record down all the people he interacts with."
Zhou Fu was still a little worried about this arrangement, mainly because he was worried about the Elysium's spies. It was okay to let them kill people, but to do such a detailed job like surveillance, it was better to forget about it.
"Also, find two constables and let them keep a close eye on Shi fellow."
Jin Peng's face was full of confusion.
Constables?
Why were there constables?
Speaking of which, how did he come into contact with that kind of person?
Zhou Fu nodded at Huang Feng, indicating for him to explain.
Huang Feng picked up the list beside him and handed it to Jin Peng, saying, "These are the spies from the Shangguan family at the East Pier. There are a total of thirty-six constables."
"This …"
Looking at the list in front of him, Jin Peng revealed a panicked expression.
Was this something he could look at?
Was it real or fake?
If it was real, then wouldn't he die after looking at it?
"Shopkeeper Jin, take it." Huang Feng smiled wickedly and even stretched out his hand to give it to Jin Peng.
The Golden Roc tried his best to smile and took it.
"Look at it here. The list can't leave this door. After you go back, you can't reveal anything about the list."
"Yes!"
Jin Peng responded and then lowered his head to look at the list.
Taking advantage of the time when Jin Peng was taking down the list, Zhou Fu looked at Huang Feng and asked, "From that dead beggar to this Shopkeeper Shi, it seems that the people in the dark are already targeting your two families. Tell me about the current situation."
"Sigh, I'll go first."
Chen Guhong sighed and a worried expression appeared on his face.
"After I went back yesterday, my family came to find me and told me about the situation in the past few days.
Today, the business of the Chen family's shop has declined seriously. It's getting worse day by day. Yesterday's revenue was even less than half of what it was half a month ago. "
"The main business of the Chen family's medicine shop is dependent on the workers and their families at the docks. Now … sigh …"
After Chen Guhong finished speaking, Huang Feng also said, "After I went back, the old man called me over.
My family's situation is worse than the Chen family's. At least the Chen family's shop is fine. Huang Jia's two grain shops and a restaurant are all in trouble. "
After the two of them finished speaking, the room became quiet.
Zhou Fu frowned and stretched out his hand to rub his forehead.
At the same time, a violent emotion emerged in his heart. Even the coldness between his eyebrows began to recede.
Although he knew that his body was strange, it was an emotional problem. Even if he understood it, he would still bring his emotions into his actions.
Just like now. Not only did Zhou Fu want to kill the man in black and the people behind him, but he also wanted to kill all the people at the docks.
"So this is the aftereffect of the Devil Path's cultivation method."
Back when Zhou Fu had been cultivating, the effects of the Demonic Whale Killing Fist had been slow. It had started from nothing and changed Zhou Fu bit by bit.
But now it was different. Firstly, his cultivation level of the Magical Whale Killing Fist was high. Secondly, his negative emotions had been suppressed in an instant. Now that they were quickly recovering, Zhou Fu could naturally feel the difference.
"It's a little difficult …"
Zhou Fu couldn't help but say.
Huang Feng and Chen Guhong, who were sitting below, looked up in shock. Even Jin Peng, who was reciting books, stopped and looked at Zhou Fu.
In the hearts of the three of them, Zhou Fu was almost omnipotent.
But now, this omnipotent person had actually said the word 'difficult'. How could they not be shocked?
The room was silent for a while. Then, the younger Huang Feng said, "Sir, if you feel that it's difficult, why don't we take a step back and settle the business first? Let's solve the Jin family's problem first and control the Jin family's resources. Then, we can talk about other things."
After Huang Feng finished speaking, the three of them looked at Zhou Fu.
Zhou Fu was a little confused. He asked doubtfully, "What do you mean by taking a step back?
The Jin family's matter has been settled. Let the group of constables have a try. Do you have any questions about this? "
The familiar voice sounded. Although it contained dissatisfaction, the three of them felt relieved.
"I wouldn't dare!
Just now, when I saw that you were very upset, I thought that the person behind the scenes was scheming to upset you. That's why I said that.
Please forgive me for making wild guesses. "
Zhou Fu was stunned at first. Then, he immediately understood what Huang Feng meant. It turned out that he had unconsciously said what he was thinking.
He smiled faintly and said, "The person behind the scenes' little tricks can't be brought to light. That's not what I'm upset about."
