Everyone was dumbfounded, staring blankly at the drum that was smashed by Fang Chen in the air, and many people began to tremble in their legs.
Li Yun was sweating profusely and said hurriedly: "In this humble position, I will serve Lord Fang wholeheartedly!"
"Tell me, among the rogues you colluded with, which one is the biggest? By the way, I'm talking about the one in Yanghuafang."
With one move to establish his power, Fang Chen pulled up a chair and sat down, yawning rather lazily.
What he didn't expect was that Li Yun, the commander of the Military and Horse Division, would speak first.
"Fang...Master Fang, Xiao San from Chunxiao Building in Yanghuafang, I am familiar with him in my humble position."
"Tsk, tsk, it's okay, you Lao Li, I didn't expect you to look like a human, but also quite dirty behind your back."
Fang Chen joked, and Li Yun almost knelt down.
Although the people in the Bingma Division are officers and soldiers in name, in the final analysis they are just ordinary people practicing martial arts.
On weekdays, the only people they arrest are thieves, or they arrest the masters of fights.
Where have I ever seen a martial arts practitioner like Fang Chen who breaks the drums in the air?
Fang Chen smiled and said, "How much money does he give you a month? Chunxiao Tower sounds like a branch hospital, right?"
"It's a branch hospital, it's a branch hospital! Xiao San gives the humble position ten taels of silver every month!" Li Yun said hurriedly.
Fang Chen: "It's only ten taels, is it worth having a military commander like you and him collude with him?"
Li Yun smiled bitterly: "Sir, your salary for a humble position is less than fifty taels a year. Prices are high in this imperial capital. If you don't get some gray income, how can you support your family?"
Fang Chen realized that the salaries of officials in the Great Yan Dynasty were indeed not high, unless they were of the third rank and above.
A fifth-grade official like Xiang Li Yun was still working in the Military and Horse Department, so he really couldn't make much money throughout the year.
He nodded: "Indeed, let's go, Mr. Li, I haven't visited Qinglou yet, take me there to learn more."
Li Yun was a little embarrassed, but after Fang Chen spoke, he could only lead the way, and the two of them only brought three or five followers with them.
The rest were all left in the Military and Horse Department to explain who they colluded with on weekdays.
Walking into Fangshi, Li Yun pointed the way and said: "Master Fang, the Chunxiao Tower is in front of you."
"It looks like business is pretty good."
Looking at the two waiters standing at the door looking for customers, Fang Chen spoke.
Li Yun chuckled: "Yanghuafang is the only one who clears out buildings, so his business is pretty good."
As soon as Fang Chen and others arrived at the door, Mr. Gui, who was waiting for customers in the Chunxiao Building, immediately recognized Li Yun.
"Hey, isn't this Master Li? Please come quickly, Chunhua! Master Li is here. Come and receive him!"
Turtle Gong yelled, and Li Yun became even more embarrassed. He looked at Fang Chen cautiously and found that Fang Chen was not angry.
But he still didn't dare to relax.
A member of the gang came up and seemed to be an old acquaintance of Li Yun. He started to get annoyed as soon as he arrived: "Master Li, you really want to die for the slave family. Why are you here now?"
"It seems like Lao Li, you run in there often." Fang Chen clicked his tongue.
Looking at the debauched scenes in Chunxiao Tower, he couldn't arouse much interest.
He has tasted such top-notch women as Lu Caihuang, so he naturally despises these vulgar girls.
No matter what, you have to be like Ye Xue'e to fall into his eyes.
Li Yun laughed along with him: "Master, the main thing is not spending money."
Good guy, this is a real free-for-all prostitution party!
Fang Chen's smile became even weirder, and he walked into Chunxiao Tower under the guidance of Li Yun's old friend.
Drinking and kissing in the hall gave Fang Chen the illusion of returning to a bar and nightclub.
Seeing that Fang Chen was not going to speak, Li Yun sat down and said to Turtle Master Madam: "Is Xiao San here? Let him come to see me."
"The third master is upstairs. Mr. Li, please wait a moment. I will go and inform you." Mr. Gui said hurriedly.
Before coming, Li Yun had already told Fang Chen about Xiao San's situation.
He can be regarded as the overlord of Yanghuafang. He has 200 to 300 brothers who are just making a living, and they open a Chunxiao Restaurant to make money.
In addition, there are gambling houses and dog fighting rings of various sizes. This guy makes a lot more money than the commander Li Yun.
Because of his huge power, even if he only gave Li Yun ten taels of silver per month, Li Yun would not dare to say anything.
Because there were too many Xiaos and Yanghuafang was under the jurisdiction of Li Yun, hundreds of people caused some trouble.
The next day he, Li Yun, would lose his hat as commander.
After a while, Fang Chen saw Xiao San, a muscular man with a beard.
When he saw Li Yun, he immediately grinned and said, "Long time no see, brother Li."
Li Yun subconsciously wanted to say a few polite words, but when he thought of Fang Chen being around, he quickly restrained himself.
This subtle expression was noticed by Xiao San, who looked at Fang Chen and said in surprise: "What a handsome young master, who is this young master, Brother Li?"
"My name is Fang Chen, Mr. Xiao, right?"
When Fang Chen opened his mouth, Xiao San hurriedly held his hands: "It turns out it's Young Master Fang. I'm disrespectful and disrespectful."
But he didn't expect Fang Chen to be so disrespectful, "Mr. Xiao, we don't have to say anything polite. I'm here today to inform you that from today on, Chunxiao Tower will have to pay me 50 yuan every month."
Two pieces of silver."
Hearing this, Xiao San's expression suddenly changed, his smile faded and he looked at Li Yun: "Brother Li, what does this mean?"
Li Yun was extremely nervous: "Don't ask me about this, Xiao San, Mr. Fang has the final say now."
"That's it, Mr. Fang."
Xiao San smiled contemptuously: "You said you want me, Chunxiao Tower, to pay you fifty taels every month. I want to know why?"
"No reason, if you can't pay, then close the door." Fang Chen still said with a smile.
"Fuck! Give me this, right? I won't pay the money yet. You can lock one up and give it a try!" Xiao San's previous good temper was obviously an act.
As soon as he finished speaking, Fang Chen grabbed the table in front of him and threw it out, smashing it into pieces.
This movement suddenly stunned everyone in the hall.
Immediately afterwards, I heard Fang Chen say loudly: "Chunxiao Tower is closed today. Anyone looking for fun can leave. There is no need to pay for prostitution."
"Fang! How dare you mess with me!"
Xiao San was immediately furious and grabbed Fang Chen, but no one could see clearly and he was stepped on by Fang Chen.
Although Xiao San has some strength, who is Fang Chen? He has been learning boxing and kicking kung fu with Qing Luan, a fifth-grade master, for the past half month!
This kind of ruffian and bully, ten more people wouldn't be enough to fight him.
"What are you doing standing there in a daze? Let me beat this bastard to death!"
After being stepped on, Xiao San's viciousness was revealed and he immediately started to call for help. Immediately, Fang Chen was stomped down by Fang Chen, causing the five fingers of his right hand to deform.
A scream like a slaughtered pig came from his mouth.
Only then did the confused guests realize that there was going to be a fight in Chunxiao Tower, and they quickly got up and ran out.
Seeing that the people in Chunxiao Tower wanted to surround him, Fang Chen twisted his toes, and Xiao San screamed even more miserably.
Fang Chen smiled and said: "Whoever takes another step forward, my next step will be your neck!"
