Rebirth of The Deer and the Cauldron, Wei Xiaobao Becomes a God

When Feng Jizhong heard this, he was filled with despair. He knew that Wei Xiaobao was not joking, but really wanted to make him suffer for a while longer. So, he begged for mercy in a crying voice: "Master Wei Xiang, please forgive me! I will really tell you everything, I will confess everything..."

Seeing Feng Jizhong like this, Wei Xiaobao knew that he had achieved his goal. He nodded and signaled Shuang'er to untie Feng Jizhong's acupuncture points. Shuang'er immediately understood and tapped Feng Jizhong's body with her fingers again, and the dislocated tendons and bones instantly returned to their original positions.

Feng Jizhong let out a long sigh, as if he had been freed from hell. He knew he had no way out and could only confess his crimes honestly. He trembled and glanced at Shuang'er beside him with fear.

He took a deep breath, his voice trembling with helplessness, "I have always been an honest man in the Tiandihui. It's not that I don't have ability, my martial arts are not weak, but fate always seems to be against me. I have never been promoted, nor have I been respected by the brothers in the Tiandihui."

A trace of painful memories flashed through Feng Jizhong's eyes, and he continued, "I remember that time, I was ordered to go on a mission, but was accidentally captured by the minions of the Qing court. They used cruel means and threatened me with death, forcing me to become an undercover agent of the Tiandihui. Faced with the choice of life and death, I was afraid and I gave in. I handed over the list of Tiandihui to the Qing court, including you, Master Wei Xiang. From then on, I became the spy of the Qing court, responsible for monitoring your every move, and I would report your words and deeds to the Qing court one by one."

Hearing this, Wei Xiaobao could not help but feel angry. He recalled that Kangxi always knew everything about Wei Xiaobao's whereabouts, and it turned out that Feng Jizhong was behind all this.

Wei Xiaobao couldn't help but smile bitterly. He had been pretending to be stupid and innocent in front of Kangxi. In fact, Kangxi knew everything. On the contrary, he was completely kept in the dark.

Feng Jizhong continued, "That time, at the secret meeting held in your house, I was also an informer. I told the Qing court that you were planning to elect a leader for the Tiandihui. As a result, the Qing soldiers directly surrounded the Wei Mansion and there was continuous artillery fire. The brothers of the Tiandihui suffered heavy casualties, and I... I'm sorry for them." His words were full of regret and pain.

"It's too late for you to repent now." Wei Xiaobao said coldly, his voice full of anger and disappointment.

Mao Shiba stood aside, looked at Feng Jizhong, and asked, "Brother Wei, how should we deal with them?"

Wei Xiaobao was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Feng Jizhong, you betrayed the Tiandihui and your brothers. Your crime is unforgivable. I have decided to execute you by slow slicing as a warning to others. As for the others, I will not take their lives for the time being, but I will not let them have an easy time either. I will send them to the mines for labor reform and let them atone for their sins with their own hands."

Feng Jizhong's face turned pale when he heard about the death penalty. It was one of the most severe punishments for all death row prisoners. It used a knife to cut the flesh bit by bit, causing the person to die slowly in endless pain. He suddenly felt despair, his body softened, and he fainted.

Mao Shiba looked at Feng Jizhong's miserable condition and couldn't help but sigh: "This kind of traitor must be tortured to death to relieve the hatred in my heart." His words were full of anger and contempt for Feng Jizhong.

When Liu Yizhou, the four Shanxi freaks and the three Hebei tyrants heard that their fate was to be sent to the mines for labor reform, they were somewhat unwilling, but when they thought that they would not die, they finally let go of their worries. They knew that this was the last chance Wei Xiaobao gave them, and they must cherish this opportunity and redeem their crimes with their own actions.

After Wei Xiaobao finished dealing with Feng Jizhong's affairs, he came to the office of the Tiandi Federation. A summary meeting for the past six months would be held today.

At this time, Prince Shangning, Shangwu, Qiu Daoji, Wu Sanniang and others were waiting for him in the conference room.

As soon as Wei Xiaobao entered the meeting room, everyone stood up and saluted him.

"Okay, we are all family, so let's skip these empty formalities in the future!" Wei Xiaobao said with a smile.

Then, everyone took their seats.

King Shangning spoke first: "Commander-in-chief, our lawmaking work has been completed during this period and has now begun to be implemented. At the same time, we are also strengthening public security management to ensure that the people live in peace. In addition, we are also promoting universal education so that more people can receive education and improve their overall quality."

Wei Xiaobao nodded to show his satisfaction. Then he asked: "You have done a good job, I am very satisfied. So, how is the social order now? Are there any problems that need to be solved?"

King Shangning replied: "Currently, social order is good, but there are still some problems, such as petty theft. However, we will continue to strengthen public security management and solve these problems."

Wei Xiaobao smiled and said, "Very good, you have done a good job. So, what about agricultural development? Is there any progress?"

King Shangning continued, "Xiaobao, we have begun to implement new agricultural policies to encourage farmers to grow high-yield crops and provide technical support. At the same time, we are also increasing investment in rural areas to improve infrastructure construction and promote agricultural development."

After hearing this, Wei Xiaobao said happily, "That's great. This way, we can achieve self-sufficiency in food and even have surplus food for export. The next step is industrial development. Mr. Qiu, please tell us about it."

Qiu Daoji nodded, stood up and introduced: "Xiaobao, our military factory has begun to produce various weapons and equipment, including Mauser rifles, bullets, Maxim heavy machine guns, various Krupp cannons, etc. Among them, the inventory of Mauser rifles has reached 100,000, with hundreds of millions of bullets; nearly 10,000 Maxim heavy machine guns; thousands of various Krupp cannons, and countless shells. These weapons and equipment will greatly enhance our military strength."

Wei Xiaobao was delighted and said excitedly: "Great! With so many advanced weapons and equipment, our army will be even stronger. However, we must also pay attention to confidentiality and not let the enemy know our military secrets. In addition, we must continue to develop new weapons to maintain our leading position."

Qiu Daoji nodded in agreement. Then he continued, "Commander-in-chief, in addition to military production, we have also achieved certain results in civilian production. At present, our steel mills have begun to produce steel, and the output is gradually increasing. At the same time, our textile mills and garment factories are also gradually expanding their scale to meet market demand."
