An outstanding student of the Academy, whose family has been operating in Jianfeng City for more than five generations, Ouyang Mo, the director of Dongcheng Bingma Division who owns a large family business, sits tall in the lobby of Dongcheng Bingma Division.

On the five-storey fretwork Sumeru Terrace, there is a black iron and wood strip table measuring one foot long and three feet wide. On the black strip table with metallic luster, from left to right are placed: Arrow Order, Shock Hall Wood, pen stand, pen container, pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and a short knife.

Behind the table is a four-flat and stable grand master chair carved with the pattern of unicorn and auspicious beast, and behind the grand master chair is a majestic picture of five tigers roaring in the valley.

Above the picture of the Five Tigers Roaring Valley hangs a plaque with five dragon patterns on a blue background and gold characters, with four big characters written on it: keep upright.

Ouyang Mo was sitting on the grand teacher's chair, and the picture of the five tigers roaring behind him made him look more majestic, and what made him look even more majestic were the two masters of the Dongcheng soldiers and horses standing in the hall.

It is really a great prestige, a great official prestige.

And the reason why he had to put on such a big official prestige was because the prisoner Ouyang Mo was going to interrogate today was unusual. This monk named Jue Yuan, whose real name was Niu Ben, had already caused an uproar in Jianfeng City.

Even because of him, he was thrown rotten eggs on the road.

If it was an ordinary person, I would have concocted him severely. But this person can't do it, because he is the direct disciple of Demon Lord Heiyan, although Demon Lord Heiyan has not spoken out now.

However, Ouyang Mo would not believe the various stories from the three religions and nine streams on the street and Goulan Washeri, if there is no Demon Cult behind them.

This is Jianfeng City, Ouyang Mo believes that the masters in the academy and his classmates and teachers will protect him. I will not suffer cruelty for arresting an illegal disciple of the demon king.

But I can't do anything to the disciples of the devil at will, such as using punishments and the like. Because Hei Yan is very defensive, if he really hit his apprentice. Even if he didn't kill himself, he might have to break one of his hands when the time comes.

In the final analysis, today's bull running is mainly about intimidation.

Because the development of the matter was somewhat beyond Ouyang Mo's estimation, there were too many words slandering him in the market, which was a blow to his reputation.

So now I need to find a way to end this matter.

It's best not to hurt face, but also get the face.

So Ouyang Mo has even thought out the general plot, and later the bull run will scare him. Young people, as long as you scare him, he will be soft. Then find an excuse and let him go.

At that time, I can still show my understanding and righteousness, and I will not lose face. Of course, this is the best result.

Therefore, one's own momentum must be sufficient.

The three-way drum passed, and the left and right yamen servants hit the ground with water and fire sticks to make a loud bang and sang: "Wei~~Wu~~~"

"Take the prisoner!"

The servant who delivered the order gave a loud shout, and Niu Ben, who was handcuffed and fettered, was escorted to the lobby.

The handcuffs and shackles given to Niu Ben by Dongcheng soldiers and horses are specially made, which are very heavy and strong. Even if Niu Ben has mastered martial arts now, it will take a little time to break free from such handcuffs and shackles.

Niu Ben was brought into the lobby, and according to the general procedures for interrogation of prisoners, he should kneel down now. But how could Niu Ben kneel down?

He just stood upright, looking at Ouyang Mo with burning eyes.

This made Ouyang Mo, who was full of confidence, a little unconfident.

Ouyang Mo frowned, but soon relaxed. Forget it, don't kneel if you don't kneel. Now is not the time to dwell on this matter.

Right now, all the three religions and nine schools in Jianfeng City are slandering my reputation, so it is more important to solve this matter first.

"Who is in the hall?" Ouyang Mo's ending sound was drawn out, and his tone of voice had the air of a superior official.

But Niu Ben in the hall completely ignored Ouyang Mo's question, and instead asked loudly, "Ouyang Mo, I only found out after staying in the prison for a few days that you, Mr. Ouyang, are also from Jianfeng City." There are quite a few owners of brothels and Chu houses. No wonder you wanted to support that old bustard that day so desperately."

"It turns out that you are not helping her after all, you are helping yourself!" Niu Ben's words were resounding as soon as he opened his mouth.

He didn't stay in the prison for nothing these few days. After exchanging information with the prisoners in the prison, Niu Ben realized that Mr. Ouyang, who was in charge of the Dongcheng Military Division, was a model of the integration of government and business.

He is on duty in Dongcheng Bingma Division, and at the same time, his family has multiple properties in Jianfeng City and other places. Including but not limited to restaurants, inns, pawnshops, brothels, carriage and horse dealers and other industries.

Basically what the Ouyang family does is to make money.

However, what this company does is very subtle and elegant, because the Ouyang family never takes the initiative to stand in the foreground, but invests in these industries and becomes a shareholder. Earn dividends every year.

The Ouyang family uses their family influence and a large amount of capital to invest in a certain industry, and they will soon reap considerable returns.

Moreover, this investment method of not being a businessman in person is also regarded as a model by many people.

Because the world still says that a gentleman should be ashamed to talk about profit, but a gentleman should be generous when spending money.

So where does the money come from? It can only be established and established.

Originally, Ouyang Mo planned to beat Niu Ben, and then find a reason to let him out. This saves his own face, but how could he expect Niu Ben to be so shameless, and expose his old background as soon as he comes up.

A majestic official of Dongcheng Bingmasi actually has a stake in the brothel, what a shame to say it. After all, it's a dirty business.

Ouyang Mo was furious immediately: "Niu Ben! You are presumptuous, you just answer whatever the adults in the courtroom ask you, when did you have the right to interrupt me?!"

"My lord? Why do you want to be a lord?" Niu Ben faced Ouyang Mo's angry gaze and the sixteen masters who were ready to move, and he said fearlessly: "Your official position as the military commander of Dongcheng is just to protect those dignitaries. Made by a wealthy businessman."

"I heard from a friend in prison that last year the young master of Dongcheng silk and satin village rode a horse drunk, injured three people and killed one. How did Dongcheng Bingmasi decide the case? It was only a fine of five hundred taels of silver. The young master didn't even show up and the matter was settled."

"It's a pity that the Zhang Sheng who was killed was the only son in the family. The Zhang family wanted to ask for an apology but couldn't get it."

Niu Ben looked at Ouyang Mo, and said in a cold tone: "Ouyang Mo, you are really a good adult. In my opinion, it is better for an adult like you to get out of that position obediently."

Ouyang Mo was furious: "Are you trying to rebel?!"
