After dressing as a superb old woman, I am bound to the power system

Qiao Lan didn't think that man was a good person.

Even though the buying and selling of people was a very common thing in Beijing, especially in this era, the actions of the man in front of her made her extremely uncomfortable.

There were also people buying slaves nearby. Only a few of them had straw ropes on their hands and were being held in their hands. Most of them were crying children.

The woman in front of her not only had a straw rope tied to her hands, but also had one around her neck. It seemed as if she was not a person, but an animal.

Qiao Lan only glanced at it and then withdrew her gaze, turning her head to look elsewhere.

The world is like this, so she has to relax and protect her family.

This journey made Qiao Lan feel heavy, as did the Duan family.

It wasn't until we left the city that the desolate scene around us got better.

There are more and more farmhouses on the roadside, and farmers are busy harvesting in the fields, harvesting the hard work of the past year.

In the city, there is a small courtyard opposite Hualiu Lane.

Hu Da returned to the yard holding the straw rope in his hand and pushed open the ajar wooden door with a creak.

The noise inside the house spread outside the courtyard, the sound of men and women playing around was very loud.

After hearing this, Hu Da frowned and took the woman in his hand into the courtyard.

He kicked open the door and shouted inside, "If you want to play, go outside and don't bring it home!"

The disheveled men and women in the room were immediately startled by the sound of the door being kicked. They hurriedly packed their clothes and climbed out of bed.

Hu San walked out, tying his belt at the same time. He laughed to please Hu who was looking at the door, "Brother, why are you back so soon?"

Hu Da frowned and looked at Hu San in front of him, salivating, "Master Zhao is coming over today, and you don't even know how to restrain yourself. If I hadn't come back early, you would have wanted to play until dark!"

The smile on Hu San's face became even more eager when he saw this, "Brother, I've been holding it in for a long time. It's hard to get to the city..." Hu San was talking and suddenly noticed the straw rope in his brother's hand, and then looked at the other side of the straw rope.

Woman with one end tied.

The woman was about twenty years old, with a feminine hairstyle. Her small face was extremely fair, and the gray collar could not block the white and slender neck. The color was great.

Hu San paused for a moment and said, "Brother, are you buying this for Mr. Zhao?"

As he spoke, he reached out to touch the woman, but was slapped away by Hu Da.

"Put away your little thoughts. You don't need me to remind you what you should and shouldn't do. If you anger Mr. Zhao, I can't protect you," Hu shouted.

Hu Sansan retracted his hand with a smile on his face. "Brother, I know."

At this moment, the woman in the room had tidied her clothes and walked out with her hair disheveled. She glanced at Hu San at the door with a wink like silk, and then gave Hu Da a wink, "You two come here to play often when you have free time!"

"

Hu San took the opportunity to put his arm around the woman's waist and gently touched her, "I'll go find you again in a few days."

After hearing this, the smile on the woman's face became even more eager, and she said happily, "Then I'll wait for you." After saying this, she twisted her waist and left the yard.

Hu San watched the slender figure leave, then reluctantly looked back.

This small courtyard is very dilapidated, and the surrounding loess bricks have become uneven due to the beatings of the years, and some even have a large piece missing.

In the distant Hualiu Alley, the voices of girls enthusiastically greeting guests reached the small courtyard.

After hearing this, Hu San felt itchy in his heart.

He glanced at the woman who followed his eldest brother into the house, looked up and down her figure, noticed that his eldest brother was about to turn around, and then withdrew his gaze with a little regret.

"You go out and prepare some food and wine." Hu Da said, taking out a bunch of copper coins from his arms and slapping them on the table in the direction of Hu San.

Hu Sanmei picked up the money with a smile on her face and stuffed the coins into her arms, "Brother, I'll go right away."

Hu Da looked around the room and found that it was in a mess. There were only two beds and a table, chairs and bench in the room. The bed was all messy, so he untied the straw rope from the woman's hand and said, "Go and clean up the house."

The woman was obedient and went over to clean up the matter.

Hu Da sat at the table and looked at the woman. He took out the deed of betrayal from his arms, twisted it in his hand and said without raising his eyelids. "Don't even think about escaping. I know all the officials in this city. You can't escape. If you are caught,

If I find you trying to escape, I will break your hands and feet and send you to the brothel opposite to sell yourself. There will be many customers patronizing you..."

These light and vicious words frightened the woman's face to turn pale, and her body could not help but tremble.

By noon, the food and wine were ready in the house.

A man wearing a police uniform walked into the yard with a happy face, "Brother Hu!"

"Brother Zhao is here!" Hu Da looked happy.

Several people gathered around the table in a lively manner and began to drink and eat.

Chatting was unavoidable while drinking. Hu Da lamented the bitterness of escaping along the way, and complained to the people in front of him. "If Brother Zhao hadn't helped me, I wouldn't have been able to enter the city gate, and I would have been living outside like a beggar. After leaving the capital,

With this kind of chaos, my livelihood for several years has been wiped out. If I had known this would happen, I would have stayed in Luanqu City instead of going to the capital..."

Zhao Dayong finished a bowl of wine and slammed the empty bowl on the table. "You can't say that! When you go to the capital, you have been a master for several years and are in charge of a group of people. Unlike me, you can only guard.

I will treat you as a grandson by this broken city gate."

The two of them lamented for a while, and Hu Da brought the topic to making money and asked the brother in front of him if there was any way to make money.

Zhao Dayong got drunk and his face turned black and red. Taking advantage of the alcohol, he patted the shoulders of the people around him and said, "Yes! The world is in chaos, and there are many ways to make money."

"Don't look at the high entrance fee. There are many people who can afford it. Those who have local care do not need to pay this money. There are many people from other places. These people enter the city and leave the city...the money they carry with them is not enough.

"Young man...burp..." Zhao Dayong burped, and a turbid smell of alcohol came out of his mouth.

"They thought they would be safe after passing this city gate. How did they know there were people waiting for them behind?" Zhao Dayong showed a lewd smile.

"What's behind this city?" Hu Da was curious.

From Hu Da's point of view, it was enough to make money, and it didn't matter whether he was doing something clean or not. What he originally did in the capital was not a clean business. Fortunately, there were many noble people in the capital, and there were also many people who were willing to waste money to eliminate disasters.

The little bit exposed between his fingernails was enough for a person like him to eat for a while, and he became curious about the news from Zhao Dayong's mouth.

"Of course it's a robbery!" Zhao Dayong said drunkenly.

"Just grab it? The master in the government office won't care?" Hu Da was curious.

Zhao Dayong raised a finger and hissed, "Do you know who the master behind this robber is?"

Hu Da's eyes widened a bit after hearing this, "Is it from above...?"

The rest of the words were not spoken, Zhao Dayong only nodded, and he immediately made up his mind.
