Martial arts immortality, I will eventually be invincible

Chen Guanlou had to go against his conscience and help Sun Daoning complete the disgusting task.

It’s just a pity for Wang Youfu.

It's so unlucky that I still have to work when it's almost the end of the year, and it's such a perverted and disgusting job.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, he applied for a sum of money from Sun Daoning, under the pretext of soothing everyone's polluted eyes and hearts.

Sun Daoning: ...

"You are really good at making up excuses! No one can comfort my polluted eyes and heart."

"You can also apply for a consolation payment for yourself." Chen Guanlou said this with a righteous attitude.

Sun Daoning's mouth twitched, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Without this condolence money, you will quit?"

"What can you do without money? Without money, you can't even employ the beggars on the street. Old Sun, do you think everyone is like you, willing to be a piece of toilet paper?"

Sun Daoning was furious. "Do you think I am happy to make straw paper?"

"I don't know whether you like it or not, but the money can't be less anyway."

"Deduct it from the Tianlao account book." Sun Daoning made the final decision. It was impossible to take money from the Ministry of Justice. The Ministry of Justice's money always came in but never went out.

"Then deduct a little more, five thousand taels."

"You're stealing money!"

"If you think it's too much, just pay it through the Ministry of Justice."

"Impossible. Five thousand taels is five thousand taels. If you dare to ask for more than that again, I will hold you responsible." Sun Daoning was thinking that he would find a way to get the five thousand taels back next year. He could find a few innocent criminals to extort money from him. There would be plenty of money.

After the money issue was settled, Chen Guanlou took his leave. Knowing that he was annoying, he did not get in the way in the government office. However, before leaving, he reminded him, "Old Sun, remember to come and watch the execution! The lingchi of a corpse is a rare event, and it is the corpse of King Cheng, you must not miss it. Call all the officials from the Ministry of Justice, and let everyone feel the deep love of His Majesty!"

One sentence full of sarcasm.

Sun Daoning wanted to scold him, but then he changed his mind and realized that he couldn't be the only one who was disgusted. When the execution was carried out, all the officials of the Ministry of Justice should be dragged to watch the execution. If we want to disgust everyone, we should disgust them together. No one should have a good year this year!

So when the words came to his lips, he decisively changed his words, "Don't worry, I will be there on time."

Chen Guanlou: ...

He just said it casually, but he didn't expect the other party to agree.

On second thought, Old Sun has a vicious mind! Sure enough, we can't suffer alone, we must all suffer together. Hehe! Now it's going to be fun.

After returning to the prison, he called Wang Youfu to the office, sighing and not speaking for a long time.

Wang Youfu was restless and was the first to break the silence, "Sir, just tell me what you want to do. I appreciate your care and will do my best to help you."

"Hey! Just tell me how I treated you?"

"Your Excellency has always been very considerate of me!" Wang Youfu immediately had a bad feeling in his heart. When an official starts playing the favor card, nothing good will happen.

He was very nervous and wanted to refuse, but he couldn't say no. He was able to hold the position of the head of the prison because of the strong support of Chen Yucheng. At the beginning, something went wrong in the execution, and the people below were very noisy. If Chen Yucheng hadn't rejected the opposition and suppressed it, he would have been replaced long ago.

He gets rewarded!

Only when there is reward can there be give and take, and only then can the relationship last long.

I'm afraid the task will be too difficult.

"That's right, there's another job at the end of the year!"

When he heard about the job, he was relieved. "What kind of job is it?"

Chen Guanlou tapped the table lightly, "You already know the news about success and failure."

"Yes."

"Your Majesty hates King Cheng so much that he would not even spare his corpse, demanding that he be chopped into pieces. Unfortunately, this task fell to the Ministry of Justice. Unfortunately, the Ministry of Justice assigned this task to the Tianlao. Unfortunately, you are the only one who can perform this torture."

"I understand. Wait, did you just say lingchi? The corpse?"

"That's right! It's just as you understand it. Lingchi Cheng Wang's body! This job is difficult, I know. The palace will send people to watch the execution, and the Ministry of Justice will also organize all officials to watch the execution! But don't worry, I have personally applied for a consolation money for you, a full 100 taels. What for?"

Wang Youfu was stunned and looked like he was crying.

He was in a very awkward position, very aggrieved, and very angry, and said aggrievedly: "My lord, I can only lingchi the living, not the dead!"

"In fact, if you think about it from another angle, lingchi (dead body) is much easier than lingchi (living body). You don't have to worry about the body dying in the middle of the process, and you don't have to worry about the bloody scene. It doesn't matter if the process is a little rough. But there is a requirement: 3,000 cuts, not a single one less."

Wang Youfu vomited and retched on the spot. Just like a pregnant woman, his stomach was churning and he felt uncomfortable all over.

Chen Guanlou personally poured him tea. "Don't be anxious, and don't be in a hurry to feel disgusted. The disgusting things are still to come. We have to take this job, you know. If you have a way to invite help, that's fine. I will definitely support you! Don't worry about the money, you can use the public account!"

Wang Youfu drank three cups of tea in one breath. His face was pale and bloodless. It was obvious that he was deeply shocked. "Sir, this is not a job for humans!"

"So I offer you a high price of one hundred taels. In addition, I will double your year-end bonus. How do you think?"

"Sir, it is taboo to torture a dead person! It will bring a curse. It is said that every wrong has its perpetrator, and this person is dead, but he is still being cut into pieces. The resentment of the dead soul is hard to dispel, and it will be blamed on us executioners. Sir, I really can't do this job."

"One hundred and fifty taels! I will personally fight for you. You just need to work hard and don't worry about anything else."

"My Lord, I have old people above me and young children below me, I am afraid of death!"

"Two hundred taels, no more! You should know that two hundred taels is a uniquely high price in the world. No government or individual would offer such a high price to an executioner. Xiao Wang, I trust you, so I gave you this job. Can't I just hire an executioner from outside for two hundred taels? There must be someone willing to make that money, right?"

The executioners were not poor, but they were definitely not rich. One or two taels of silver were the fair market price for a job. Occasionally, they could get five taels of silver if the family members arranged for them.

The executioners belonged to the lower class of the petty bourgeoisie in Beijing. Their income was limited, but it was enough for them to eat and drink. That was it. It was also a fact that they had a low status and it was difficult to find a wife.

Two hundred taels of silver was a huge sum of money. It could be said that an executioner could not earn so much money in his entire life. But he could earn so much money in just one job. If it was put outside, there would definitely be executioners fighting for it.

However, the dignity of the government cannot be violated.

How can we ask for help from outside when we have our own executioner? Especially for this kind of official, small-scale public execution!

Besides, if there is money to be made, one must first take care of one's own people! Only when one's own people do not value the money will one consider hiring outside help.
