Chapter 816 Bai Qing Is Speechless ([-])

The content of the self-defense statement is to secretly scold the local county official as a parent but is unqualified in governance, making a living business is difficult, and crooked industries are flourishing.

This is to provide Bai Qing with ammunition for a war of words. How he uses it is his business. If he doesn't want to use Qi Ke, he doesn't care. She really doesn't understand the ways of the officialdom. She just needs to know how to protect herself from being bullied. .

Two days after the self-defense was written, Zhaolin received news from the county deputy that Bai Qing had returned.

Bai Qing came back with his father, he was tired and hard working outside the past few days, the general planned to rest in the county for one night and then set off for Dong'an mansion the next day.

How could the father and son expect to receive a big gift as soon as they came back.

Of Huang Shuqing's confiscated property, Qi Ke only took valuables such as the big house of the Women's and Children's Hall and the existing gold and silver in the accounting room at that time, and the jewelry used by prostitutes for ostentation. Qi Ke laughed and accepted, she didn't take any of the things outside the house, and made a detailed list of everything to be confiscated by the Qianhu Office.

Bai Qing stared blankly at the list on the table and the wooden boxes placed all over the floor for them. Qi Ke's occasional playful smile appeared in his mind, his fingers twitched twice, and his fist felt a little itchy, but he couldn't beat Qi Ke after thinking about it. But the sister Lin who is beside me.

General Bai ignored his son, who rolled his eyes and didn't know where to vent his anger, and asked someone to call his insider Zhang Baizong, who told him the details of the day, and learned that Qi Ke had already held a celebration banquet, and he called for an event that night. The powerful soldiers ate a feast of seafood. General Bai didn't know whether he was angry or smiling, but he was happy anyway.

The two generals, Qin and Xue, were as quiet as chickens at the moment, standing aside and flipping through the lists, exchanging tacit glances from time to time, feeling astonished in their hearts that a prostitute who runs a brothel can have such a fortune.

"Except for Qi Ke's hard work, what's the situation in the county these days?" General Bai asked Mr. Zhang, rubbing his chin.

"Very good." Mr. Zhang Bai didn't think about it, "The street where Qi Ke's two shops are located is very peaceful. The street of the Women's and Children's Hall has all sorts of people. You can't even see a drunk these days. The business of the bamboo weaving shop It’s even better, there are a lot of women from ordinary families delivering sacks and bamboo baskets to the store, women from such families rarely went to the streets before.”

"Why?" General Bai was a little curious.

"General, the main reason is that the streets are not safe. There are too many men. As long as women who are not in their seventies and eighties are likely to be deliberately brushed past by men."

"The law and order in Donglin County is so bad? It forces women to dare not go to the streets, so who will do the daily shopping? Men?"

The General knows that there are few rich people in remote counties like Donglin County, and there are even fewer wives and ladies who can feel at ease at home. Women who have to go out every day for their family livelihood are forced to dare not go to the streets. This is the fault of the magistrates.

"Back to the general, it happened at the gate of the military station a few times, and the soldiers would help others whenever they saw it. It never happened in front of us again, but from time to time, I can still hear that it happened at a certain time on a certain day. On which street there are hooligans harassing women."

"Now that Qi Ke has done a great job, does it make the women in the county dare to take to the streets again?" General Bai understood the feelings of the women a little bit.
