Chapter 220: Recently poor to the point of madness
"Who is your big brother? Report the name, let's see if I recognize him." Lu Datou said casually.
He really admired the second leader's big brother, playing people in the palm of his hand, using a chess piece to help himself earn money, and then getting promoted and rich. When this chess piece was useless, or had a threat, between turning clouds and rain, he placed the chess piece in a dead end. People didn't even need to do it themselves, their hands were clean, not stained with half a blood.
This means, this wisdom, he must know who it is.
Lu Datou was too curious.
The second leader said: "I can't say."
Lu Datou jumped with anger, "At this time, you are still protecting that big brother of yours."
"If you want to know who my big brother is, invite Chen Tou over. I will tell Chen Tou personally."
"No way. Can't you just tell me? I am brothers with Chen Tou."
The second leader closed his mouth and didn't speak.
Lu Datou was so angry he wished he could rush into the prison and beat the second leader violently.
Anger kills people!
Discrimination!
Typical discrimination!
"Why don't you want to tell me? Is the difference between me and Chen Tou that big?"
"Tell you, you just treat it as fun, listen and forget it. Tell Chen Tou, Chen Tou might have a chance to avenge me."
"Bah! Who do you think you are. Why would Chen Tou avenge you."
The second leader closed his mouth again.
"You you you..." Lu Datou was so angry he gritted his teeth, "As you wish! Don't count on me telling Chen Tou, he is a busy man, he has no time to bother with you."
The second leader had a moment of hesitation, but he finally firmed up his idea.
Lu Datou is just a hoodlum; telling Lu Datou the name of the big brother would be of no use. Chen Tou is different; although he has only interacted with him once, he has determined from the bottom of his heart that Chen Tou is a person with real ability, obviously more capable than Lu Datou.
He had also begged other prison guards before, to help him keep the child in Yin Siniang's belly, but not a single person was willing to help. Even if he gave silver, it wouldn't work.
The prison guards said bluntly that they couldn't reach the women's prison side. Don't look at them all being subordinate institutions of the Heavenly Prison, and only separated by a wall, but they couldn't see each other all year round, and hadn't dealt with that side at all. Secondly, the manager of the women's prison, Hu Yuli, was from the palace, looking very difficult to provoke.
For people from the palace, the prison guards all kept a respectful distance, never approaching them. Everyone knew that the female prisoners in the women's prison were either exiled, or demoted to criminal slaves to serve the royal family. Whether ugly or beautiful, they weren't people that small prison guards could covet.
Anyway, there were so many beautiful sisters in the brothels outside, no one would be so foolish as to covet the female prisoners in the women's prison, looking for trouble for themselves. What's more, it was a big trouble like keeping the child in Yin Siniang's belly. This money was too lazy to earn! And it wasn't that they lacked the second leader's bit of money to buy rice for the pot.
A big trouble that everyone feared like a snake or scorpion, in Chen Tou's hands, was solved in a few days.
If this isn't ability, what is?
Putting aside a capable person and not looking for him, looking for Lu Datou, unless he went crazy.
Lu Datou was just a mixed person, a big mixed person.
Lu Datou was extremely angry.
But his anger came fast and went fast.
Eating in the cafeteria at noon, seeing Chen Guanlou, he immediately waved, "Come come come, sit here. The matter of the second leader has a follow-up, you didn't guess it, right. He also has a sworn big brother, who is also an official."
Hmm?
Chen Guanlou was very astonished, "Mountain bandit and official, sworn brothers? Why didn't I hear any wind?"
If this matter was true, even if it wouldn't be written in the file, it would definitely spread in the circle.
Lu Datou looked left and right, and said in a low voice: "This is someone else's secret, of course you can't hear the wind. You helped him, he fulfilled his wish, and when chatting today, he secretly revealed it to me."
He told the story told by the second leader to Chen Guanlou, adding oil and vinegar.
"I dare to guarantee, the second leader must have been sold by his sworn big brother. People are now promoted, have a stable source of wealth, and no longer need a mountain bandit brother to help raise funds, and there is a risk of exposure. One step, two steps, simply destroyed the person and the nest together. Have you thought about it?"
Chen Guanlou nodded, agreeing with Lu Datou's guess. It wasn't that they deliberately thought of people so badly, but human nature is like this. There are no silly white sweets in the officialdom, people who climb up, either are ruthless, or are sharp, or have heaven-defying luck, or have a good dad or a good father-in-law.
Silly white sweet mixing in officialdom?
Hehe!
Officialdom is black-hearted and ruthless, that is normal.
This matter of the second leader, without accident, must be the result of his sworn big brother's manipulation. Without spending a single effort, he solved the hidden danger of the second leader. The means are really high, and really black!
"He said he wants to see you, only then will he tell the name of the sworn big brother."
"See me for what. I'm not curious about his big brother." Chen Guanlou said one thing and meant another, he was like Lu Datou, actually very curious about which official figure the second leader's big brother was. If he met him in the future, he would definitely keep a respectful distance.
Lu Datou gave a laugh, "Really not curious? I heard his tone, his big brother should be serving in the capital, which yamen specifically still depends on you to set words."
Chen Guanlou was silent for a moment, "Have you ever thought about why he told you this secret? Eyes are about to go to the execution ground, the wish has been fulfilled, why create extra trouble at this time."
"What else could it be, nothing more than setting a bait, if you meet in the future, you can avenge him by the way, he can also laugh in the underground."
"He overestimates me too much, I am a small prison guard, and I can avenge him. Hehe!" Chen Guanlou sneered.
Lu Datou asked directly: "Do you want to see him. I think that kid definitely still has things he hasn't confessed. Just like, he said no money, the money was controlled by the first leader. Definitely nonsense. I dare to guarantee, he definitely hid money privately. Think of a way, let him spit it out, three-seven split, I take three you take seven, how about it?"
This was Lu Datou's real purpose.
Money that doesn't pass through the Heavenly Prison's public account, no matter how much, is his own. He has been lacking money recently, just hoping to make a windfall.
He also saw it clearly, the second leader eats soft but not hard, and only believes in Chen Guanlou. If Chen Guanlou doesn't show up, this money can't be taken.
He kept inciting, agitating.
Chen Guanlou actually didn't care, nothing more than wasting a bit of time.
He hummed, "You have been poor to the point of madness recently!"
"Chen Tou, my good brother, I am bitter!" Lu Datou started playing the bitter card, disgusting Chen Guanlou to the point of almost vomiting.
"Fine, fine, don't howl like howling for a funeral. Let me think first."
"What is there to think about this matter, you go out, one is worth ten. I believe in you one hundred percent, definitely have a way to pry open the second leader's mouth." Lu Datou was anxious to death, wishing he could immediately pull Chen Guanlou to the Heavenly Prison, prying open the second leader's mouth. ===== CHAPTER 221 =====
