Chapter 1078: Squeeze dry

Do it!

For the sake of money, Xu Fugui had to do this job beautifully.

Chen Guanlou was very satisfied. "Old Xu, if you do this job well, past matters will be let bygones be bygones."

"Thank you, master. Master, don't worry, I guarantee I will squeeze out every cent of the Wen family. I will never let a single cent flow outside."

"That is excellent! I believe in your ability; don't let me down."

"I will never let the master down."

Xu Fugui, harboring the determination to succeed or die, returned to the C-grade prison. He put all other prisoners aside and focused on studying how to deal with Wen Dabao and squeeze out all the Wen family's wealth.

From then on, on the Wen family's side, every three days or so, prison guards would take notes written by Wen Dabao himself and go to the door to collect debts.

Don't give it!

Hehe!

In this day and age, even super first-rank officials don't dare to default on the Heavenly Prison's money; where does the mere Wen family get the guts?

If they dare to default, just throw them all into the big prison.

The Six Shanmen were very happy to cooperate with the Heavenly Prison to do a job; not only did they get money, but there were no aftereffects at all. It was simply incredibly refreshing.

This matter, even if reported to the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Justice wouldn't ask.

As the saying goes, pay back money when you owe it; it is a matter of course.

The Heavenly Prison is the bottom line of the law; the Heavenly Prison acts on the edge of the law, and no one can manage it. The key is that the Heavenly Prison acts with reason and evidence, not by making trouble at the door.

Is Wen Dabao the current head of the Wen family?

His handwritten note, even if taken to the government office for confrontation, is valid. Why would the Wen family members block it!

Just like this, relying on one note after another, the prison guards gradually emptied the Wen family.

Even if someone couldn't stand it and wanted to come forward to interfere, they would be beaten away by the brothers of the Six Shanmen.

"The Ministry of Justice is handling a case; bystanders, please avoid."

With just this sentence, people were blocked back.

Wen Huairen's former colleagues, those who claimed to be righteous and wanted to come forward to speak for the Wen family, would have their impeachment papers thrown back as soon as they reached the Secretariat.

The Ministry of Justice is handling a case; the case has not been tried yet, has not been concluded, and there are no doubts; how can others be allowed to point fingers? Even if they want to point fingers, they should at least bring out some solid evidence.

Just relying on prison guards going to the Wen family to move property is not solid evidence. This is one of the steps of handling the case!

Besides, the Ministry of Justice handles cases, and the procedures are checkable. The Heavenly Prison acts, and the procedures are also checkable.

After checking, there are no problems. The procedures are correct, and there is nothing to criticize.

As for Wen Dabao being tortured, that is even more common. After entering the big prison, if you aren't tortured, do you expect to eat and drink well?

Are you kidding!

After emptying the Wen family's property, the next step was to force the Wen family to sell fields and land, and sell shops. In the end, only the large mansion they were currently living in remained; sell that too.

A few people living in such a large mansion is pure waste.

Moreover, the Wen family had no money and no financial resources to maintain such a large mansion.

Clear it out!

Sell it all!

The Wen family's wealth vanished in the blink of an eye.

As for Wen Dabao, a life for a life. Considering he was not old, the sentence was changed to exile. Exile to the northwest, to serve in the army.

With his physique, I'm afraid he wouldn't reach the place of exile before losing his life on the way.

The other Wen family members, without money or power, rolled up their private silver, took a few decent pieces of luggage, and went their separate ways, fleeing the capital one after another. Even if no one told them, they realized with their own brains that the capital could not be stayed in. Someone couldn't stand the Wen family and was finding ways to torture the Wen family. It was better to go far away; perhaps they could preserve their lives.

The large Wen family thus scattered!

Spring is warm and flowers are blooming!

Lady Lu, holding the letter Chen Guanlou gave her, found the Shen family. With the Shen family's help, she successfully settled down in Xizhou and changed her surname and household registration to Lu, Lady Lu.

Her identity passed the clear path at the local government office.

In March, Xizhou had become extremely hot.

A dart agency from the capital found Lady Lu and sent her a portion of wealth.

Lady Lu was very surprised. She asked the dart agency, and the dart agency said they were only responsible for transporting goods, and they didn't know the specific situation. However, along with the goods came two letters.

After Lady Lu read the letters, her eyes were filled with tears, and she immediately knelt down, kowtowing repeatedly toward the capital.

She never imagined that Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen would actually convert her dowry into simple and portable wealth and arrange for the dart agency to send it to her. There was also a portion converted into silver, deposited in a bank.

Inside the envelope was a seal, used for withdrawing money from the bank.

Ever since she poisoned the Wen mother and son, she had never hoped to get her dowry back.

Although Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen told her he would take the Lu family's other wealth as a reward, she still felt she had taken a huge advantage. Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen could have given her nothing, yet he sent her dowry back.

Such kindness, she didn't know how to repay.

Only by lighting an eternal lamp for the benefactor, burning incense every day, and praying devoutly. Wishing the benefactor everything goes as he wishes!

The dart agency also brought a wooden box to the Shen family; opening it, it was full of books that couldn't be bought on the market, as well as precious stationery. They could be kept for personal use or used for gifts; they were all excellent things.

Shen Buzhi and Shen Liang, father and son, were quite moved.

"Back then, we were saved by Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen, and your illness could be treated, allowing us to preserve our lives. If it weren't for Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen's help, we father and son would have long since lost our lives in the capital. Now he has sent such precious gifts; we truly don't know how to thank him."

The Shen family's case couldn't be overturned, and the father and son were destined to have no connection with the imperial examinations.

However, the Shen family was an official family; even if they couldn't take the imperial examinations, they hadn't forgotten to read and understand reason. Descendants must read! Even if they couldn't walk the official path, being a teacher, a small official in the government office, or even a private secretary was more than enough.

Precisely because of this, the Shen family could help Lady Lu change her identity and surname, obtaining a new life.

Xizhou is a place of exile. Fish and dragons are mixed, and all kinds of people are there. But it also gave many people a chance to survive.

The Shen family, three or four generations, had struggled in Xizhou for decades and had long since become a force not to be underestimated locally. Although they were descendants of criminal officials, they could speak up in the government office.

In a remote and poor place, finding someone who can read and write and has knowledge is not easy!

Those criminal officials who have just been exiled are absolutely not to be used. It is easy to invite disaster. At most, take care of them a little.

On the contrary, descendants of criminal officials like the Shen family, who have taken root for generations, are more reassuring to use. At least on the surface, the Shen family has merged with the local area.

"Son thinks, as long as we are sincere, Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen won't dislike it. Although Xizhou is a remote and poor place, at least there are a few local specialties that can be taken out. While the dart agency hasn't left yet, prepare quickly. I wonder what father thinks?"

Shen Liang had changed from his weak and dying appearance back then and was now a half-grown boy with his own ideas.

"Reasonable! Prepare a portion of top-tier local specialties and mention Lady Lu's situation in the letter. I hope Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen won't dislike it after receiving the gift."

"He won't. Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen has high character and is not a person who dislikes the poor and loves the rich." ===== CHAPTER 1079 =====
