The world of the Northern Song Dynasty, the backyard of Li Mansion in Quanzhou.

Li Hao held a pair of steel needles in his hand. These steel needles were brought from the main world last time. Each steel needle is about two inches long and thinner than a hair. Both ends of the steel needle are extremely sharp and can

Easily penetrates the board.

Li Hao spread his palms, and the steel needles slowly floated into the air one by one, suspended in front of him motionless. Now his force can control objects weighing less than half a kilogram, and the control range has been extended to one hundred

About several meters.

Each of these steel needles is very light, so he can control as many as one hundred or dozens of steel needles at the same time.

Li Hao waved his hand gently, and more than a hundred steel needles shot out quickly. Under the sunlight, more than a hundred rays of light flickered in mid-air, and the steel needles flew nearly forty meters.

He stretched out his hand and waved, and the large group of steel needles turned sharply in mid-air and flew back to him. In fact, it is not necessary to coordinate the gestures to control objects with the force. Li Hao's waving movement is not necessary, it is just a subconscious movement.

In this way, you can better concentrate on controlling the force and turn more than a hundred steel needles to "pull" them back.

This large group of steel needles flew back in mid-air, just like a school of fish swimming along a fixed line in the sea. The steel needles circled around Li Hao's body and then shot forward. When they were halfway through, the group of steel needles flew to the left and right.

Divide into two routes and circle around in an arc to outflank it.

Li Hao's mind was highly concentrated, and the steel needle in mid-air flew faster and faster, constantly dividing and converging, changing its dazzling flight path.

Moreover, under Li Hao's deliberate control, the steel needles collided with each other from time to time during flight, changing direction instantly. The speed of the steel needles flying was sometimes fast and sometimes slow, the flight trajectory was flexible and changeable, and sometimes the angle of the sudden acceleration and lasing was very tricky. If

If someone is attacked by these steel needles, they must have been pricked all over.

After practicing for more than half an hour, Li Hao felt restless for no reason and had no intention of continuing to practice.

The steel needles automatically flew back into the needle box as if they were spiritual, and were arranged neatly. The lid of the needle box was automatically pushed and closed under the force of force. Li Hao stretched out his palm, and the needle box moved twice and suddenly jumped automatically.

into his hands.

He kept the needle box with him. Since Li Hao's force was still weak and he could not control heavy objects, he temporarily chose a razor blade and a thin steel needle as weapons. These two self-defense "weapons" were very light and he usually carried them with him.

of.

After bringing these two "weapons", he no longer brought the electric shock device. After all, the electric shock device could only be used at close range, and in his field of force, blades and steel needles were much easier to use than electric shock devices. And even if

When you are close, the blades and steel needles driven by the Force are more powerful than electric shock devices. Taking someone's life is just a matter of thought.

Li Hao changed into his period clothes, put on his period wig, and went straight to the front yard.

This morning, the four maids, Mei Lan, Zhu Ju, came to the Liang family's mansion, accompanied by several nursing homes and more than 20 long-term workers. Li Hao has officially purchased the Liang family's property. He just signed the contract yesterday and attached it.

A sum of 20,000 yuan was paid, and the remaining balance was to be paid within two years.

Today, the four maids went to the mansion. Firstly, they ordered the people to clean the house so that Li Hao could move in soon. Secondly, they bought a group of servants to be used by the Li family in the future. These servants are truly prostitutes, not hired ones.

The long-term workers of the relationship are servants who truly have a sense of belonging to the Li Mansion, and they are required to be very loyal.

Li Hao is very satisfied with these four maids. They are all orphans. After entering the Li Mansion, they have truly made this place their home. They are very attentive to their work and they still have certain abilities. When Li Hao practices the force, he still knows how to do it.

Let them leave the backyard and keep it a secret for now.

Ji Tong led a team of anti-smuggling cadres from the City Shipping Department straight to Li's Mansion. He waved to the yamen's team leader and said: "You arrange for a few yamen to run over and clear the front door, side door, and backyard door of Li's Mansion."

Guard the doors everywhere, two people at each door. Remember, no one is allowed in or out without my order."

"Yes, sir!" The squad leader immediately arranged for manpower, and several government officials ran quickly. They were dressed in government uniforms, wearing waist knives and holding water and fire sticks. They had a strong momentum when they ran. Pedestrians on the road avoided them from a distance.

On the roadside, they were pointing and talking at them.

Ji Tong brought out twenty government officials this time. It wasn't a lot of people, but it was quite a lot. Generally, there are so many government officials when major cases happen. Ji Tong deliberately brought more people out, also to strengthen his strength.

The momentum was prepared to give Li Hao great pressure and intimidation.

The officials were very excited. Every time they went out on a large scale, they never got enough money. What's more, this time they targeted the Li Mansion, the owner of the Qizhen and Yibao Pavilion. Qizhen and Yibao Pavilion,

Who in Quanzhou doesn’t know that the goods inside are priceless? Thinking that the harvest this time may be higher than ever before, the cadres were all full of energy, full of energy, and walked through the streets arrogantly.

The government officials came to the door of Li's Mansion. The concierge of Li's Mansion had never seen such a battle before. He came out tremblingly and said: "Sir, I wonder which yamen you are from? You came to Li's Mansion...

Ji Tongli ignored him and waved his hand: "Go in!"

The officials rushed in and pushed the porter aside. The porter was anxious, knowing that it was impossible to stop them, so he rushed inside to report.

The housekeeper Ding Fuzheng was discussing the opening of the photo studio with the second shopkeeper. This second shopkeeper was promoted by Li Hao from the sales team leader. He was temporarily appointed as the second shopkeeper. This also means trial. If he does well, he will be directly promoted to the second shopkeeper.

He is promoted to the head shopkeeper and officially takes charge of the photo studio. If he is not satisfied after a period of trial, he will hire another big shopkeeper.

The two were discussing when they suddenly heard rapid and dense footsteps, and at the same time heard the concierge shouting: "Steward Ding, these government servants suddenly broke in!"

Ding Fu was startled. He walked out of the hall and saw a dozen fierce-looking officials rushing in.

Ding Fu walked up the first few steps and said, "I don't know if an adult has arrived, but I didn't go out to greet him. It's really rude."

Ji Tong looked coldly, glanced at Ding Fu, and said with a "hum" in his nostrils: "Where is Li Hao? Ask him to come out to see me."

Ding Fu said with a smile: "My lord, please come into the living room for a sip of tea. I'll ask the young master to come out right away. Dear brothers, you've been working hard too. It's hot in the weather. Let's have a cup of tea to quench your thirst." While he was speaking, a servant was already offering him a cup of tea.

Serve tea to Ji Tong.

"Your Majesty, please have some tea. I'll ask you, Young Master, to come out." Ding Fu retreated. As soon as he left the hall, the smile on his face disappeared immediately. He called a long-term worker to give him a few words, and the long-term worker nodded repeatedly. Then, Ding

Fu hurriedly walked to the backyard. These officials didn't even use basic courtesy. It was obvious that they were coming with bad intentions, so they had to inform the young master immediately.

Ji Tong had already guarded the entrance of Li Mansion. He didn't believe that Li Hao could fly away, so he picked up the tea cup and drank tea. As soon as he opened the lid of the cup, he immediately smelled the aroma of tea. He sipped it gently.

After one sip, his eyes lit up, and he almost blurted out "good tea", but after looking at the yamen standing around, he held back the word "good tea".

But he took a few sips, and his mouth was filled with the aroma of tea, and he had endless aftertaste. It was the first time in Ji Tong's life to drink such good tea. Oh my god, what did he drink before? Compared with this tea, he was so good before.

What you drink can be regarded as swill.

Li's servants immediately refilled the tea, and Ji Tong drank it all in several sips, then refilled, then drank it all, refilled it, drank it all, refilled it, drank it all...

The government servants all couldn't stand it. Such a gurgling cow drink was not only indecent and immodest, but also came to Li's house to find trouble. What's the rhythm of drinking other people's tea? The host will come out later.

, do you still have the nerve to accuse others of smuggling? Do you still have the nerve to get angry?

Soon, several servants of the Li Mansion came out and brought out more than ten teacups on wooden trays and distributed them to the government officials. When the servants were dividing the tea, they quietly handed over a small ingot of silver. The officials' eyes shone brightly.

The standard small ingot is two taels of silver. Each ingot is two taels of silver, which is two taels of money.

This...is a full month's wages! The owner of this rare treasure pavilion is very sensible. I can take care of the ships of this company when I see them at sea in the future. The owner is so generous, and I will never suffer a loss if I let them go.

, there will definitely be generous compensation afterwards. Anyway, catching the smuggler is the merit of the official, they can only get a small amount of reward, and the benefit is not enough to let them go.

Before Ding Fu reached the door of the backyard, Li Hao had already walked out. When Ding Fu saw it, he hurriedly said: "Master, it's not good."

Li Hao saw Ding Fu's anxious face and his face was covered with sweat. He knew something was wrong and said in a deep voice: "Don't be anxious. Speak slowly. There is nothing that cannot be solved."

Ding Fu screamed in his heart, feeling ashamed that despite his age, he was not as calm as a young man when things happened. He immediately told what had just happened.

"Do you know who they are?"

"The leading official didn't say anything. It seems that he won't say anything until he sees the young master."

"Then let's go meet him for a while."

"Sir, I just made my own decision and asked my subordinates to give two coins to each of the officials. I want to calm down before the master sees them."

Li Haodao: "I have already made a rule. For emergency expenses of less than 100 yuan, you or Xiaomei can advance from the accounting office first. This is a matter within the authority, not an overreach. Come back and write me a note, and I will sign it for you to the accounting office.

Check out. Do you think these people are here to get some benefits, or do they really want to do something serious?"

"Their attitude is very bad, I'm afraid it won't be easy to get rid of them."

Li Hao calculated in his mind that he could handle more than ten people by himself. If the other party came with thirty or forty people, he would not go to see them. After all, if thirty or forty people risked their lives, they might be a slight threat to him.

.

The other party came to the door with weapons, so Li Hao naturally had to prepare for the worst, but if more than ten people really took action and used the Force to activate the steel needles, he could stab them all blind in a second or two.
