Royal Gold Medal County Magistrate

The beggar was stunned for a moment upon hearing this.

Then, his eyes rolled back to normal, and he stopped pretending, revealing a fierce look in his eyes.

Zhang Biao walked over, opened his clothes, revealing a small arsenal of weapons.

The beggar rolled his eyes upon seeing this, then pretended to be blind again, silently squatting back down.

Li Yuanzhao was dumbfounded: "Lao Fang! You're robbing a beggar's money too?"

"He's a fraud; this is called chivalrously upholding justice!" Fang Zheng said without blushing or skipping a beat. "Is robbing money the point!? Can you see clearly now? Is he blind or not?"

Li Yuanzhao suddenly felt wronged; his sincerity had been misplaced, and he had been deceived by the beggar!

He walked over to the beggar and kicked him twice, loudly saying: "Why are you pretending to be blind!?"

The beggar felt extremely wronged, not uttering a word, hugging his knees and burying his face in them.

"Are you deaf!? You could clearly hear people talking just now!" Li Yuanzhao kicked him twice more with a bang.

His tattered clothes were kicked open, and a few more coins jumped out.

Fang Zheng quickly collected them with a quick eye and hand.

The beggar buried his head and began to sob incessantly...

Fang Zheng quickly stopped Li Yuanzhao: "Hey, they're all pitiful people; that's enough." After speaking, he threw a coin into the broken bowl: "Alright, stop crying; this is for you."

The beggar heard the sound of money, silently raised his head, and fell into deep thought looking at the coin in the bowl...

"Don't rush! Keep watching."

Fang Zheng pulled Li Yuanzhao and continued walking. Before long, they saw a disabled beggar with missing legs by the roadside.

Fang Zheng's eyes lit up, and he went over as if nothing had happened, directly snatching the bowl and leaving.

Li Yuanzhao's eyes widened, his mind in a mess, unsure of what Lao Fang would do next...

He saw Fang Zheng pour the money from the bowl into his sleeve, then turn around and throw the broken bowl far away with force!

The beggar, who was originally kneeling, suddenly manifested his legs and sprinted off in the direction the broken bowl had flown!

Li Yuanzhao was dumbfounded, a sense of bitterness gradually spreading in his heart.

"So... what you said was true... I was truly blind!"

Fang Zheng couldn't help but pat Li Yuanzhao's shoulder, comforting him: "It's nothing; everyone will grow. Everything in the world requires a process; you won't be deceived after seeing more!"

Li Yuanzhao suddenly woke up, staring at Fang Zheng and saying: "Then how could you tell!? There aren't many beggars in Taoyuan County, are there?"

Fang Zheng smiled, lost in unbearable youthful memories.

When he first arrived, Taoyuan County was truly poor and desolate; the people were almost reduced to eating dirt.

Calling it a county was already giving it too much credit; it was basically a village.

Fang Zheng, an ordinary white-collar worker, only had life skills limited to online shopping, sweeping, mopping, and using the toilet himself.

The county had no industry and no food, so they were basically helpless, spending their days starving or watching others starve.

It was near the mountains, but hunting was out of the question; at most, they could gnaw on some tree bark, and they were so weak they staggered when they walked, so they might not even have the strength to come down the mountain...

After starving for a long time, dignity and face could all be put aside, and Fang Zheng finally made a major decision.

To lead the people of Taoyuan County to Hengjiang Prefecture to beg for food!

Under Fang Zheng's mobilization, he quickly organized a group of the old, weak, women, and children, taking the county's remaining dry food and instructing the few young people in the county to stay in bed and not get up.

After that, they set off towards Hengjiang Prefecture in a mighty manner.

Just entering Hengjiang City took a lot of effort, and after entering, they couldn't beg for much because of a lack of experience, wandering around miserably for a month.

But Fang Zheng was, after all, a modern person, and his learning ability was faster, quickly summarizing his experience.

Pretending to be blind and pretending to be disabled were all common routines; a more advanced tactic was pretending to be pregnant. All the women he had brought were made to look like pregnant women, lying on the street and complaining incessantly, making it difficult for the government to drive them away.

Even many elderly women were stuffed to look pregnant, causing the people of Hengjiang to marvel.

Begging to bury a wife or begging to bury a husband were also standard operations.

After studying for a period of time, Fang Zheng combined his pre-transmigration anti-fraud experience and his live-streaming experience, even developing a series of situational dramas.

Because Fang Zheng looked good, the most he did was pretend to be a scholar, ridiculing beggars and then deceiving sympathy. Or he would pick out a wealthy person from the onlookers and mock them, provoking emotions, using all sorts of means.

After a period of time, Fang Zheng began to consciously integrate the beggars, starting to organize and formalize them. After all, Fang Zheng had caused such a big commotion, and the government had also noticed it, so it wasn't a long-term solution to be constantly fighting a guerrilla war with a worried mind.

So Fang Zheng naturally became the gang leader, setting up elders to improve the business level of the gang members.

Enforcement elders were responsible for executing family law and representing the gang and the gang leader to eliminate any harmful consequences to the gang.

The Staff-Holding Dragon Head was responsible for the daily management of the gang and acted as the gang leader's and deputy gang leader's think tank, providing them with opinions, suggestions, and exercising the gang leader's power on their behalf.

There was also a Bowl-Holding Dragon Head responsible for allocating resources, with several branch altars set up, sharing information!

In this way, in less than a month, Fang Zheng's team became the leading begging force in Hengjiang Prefecture, and countless beggars came to join.

Fang Zheng lost himself in the cries of "Gang Leader," gradually losing his last bit of face...

In the end, the momentum became too great, and Hengjiang Prefecture sent troops to crack down severely. Fang Zheng could only exchange all the money for food, and led a group of people back to Taoyuan County in a dejected manner, using the trained Beggar Gang elites to form a government team.

Only then did he start brewing wine and doing business, gradually getting on the right track...

To this day, a song: "The wandering man misses you outside, dear mother..." is still sung in Hengjiang Prefecture, setting off a trend~

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng sighed with emotion, patted Li Yuanzhao's shoulder again.

"The principles of the world are all interconnected; if you specialize in one area, you can understand others by analogy."

"Follow me and learn well, and you won't go wrong!"

"Alright, it's getting late; I'll take you home first."

......

Zhang Chang and Ning Hongyuan fled to the street in a panic, running non-stop, afraid that Fang Zheng would change his mind and chase after them with people.

After running for who knows how long, Zhang Chang stopped and coughed frantically.

A strong smell of blood spread in his mouth, and Ning Hongyuan kept patting Zhang Chang's back, concerned: "Young Master Zhang, are you alright..."

"Cough cough... Thank you, Brother Ning, cough, this Fang Zheng is really hateful! If I don't avenge this, I swear I won't be human!"

"Tonight, you first come to my mansion... we... discuss... cough... cough, a countermeasure..."

"Young Master Zhang, don't say anymore; I'll take you home first. That Fang Zheng treated you like that; I will never let him go!" Ning Hongyuan's chest was also aching. At the time, he was pressed under the table; he was already thin, trying to lie as flat as possible, leaving most of the pressure to Zhang Chang, so the damage wasn't too great.

The two staggered, supporting each other as they returned to the Minister's mansion.

As soon as they entered the gate of the Minister's mansion, the housekeeper rushed over with a look of shock and anger: "Young Master! What happened to you? Who bullied you outside!?"

"And who are you!?" The housekeeper stared at Ning Hongyuan with a deadly gaze.

Zhang Chang coughed twice more: "Don't make a fuss; close the gate."

After the guards closed the gate, Zhang Chang slowly straightened up, leaning against the housekeeper.

Ning Hongyuan still looked at him with concern: "Young Master Zhang, you are fine..."

Before he could finish speaking, Zhang Chang's icy gaze immediately reflected in Ning Hongyuan's eyes.

Zhang Chang pointed at him with one hand: "Men... cough... cough, beat him to death for me!"
