Republic of China: Guandong Ginseng King

Chapter 348 Sign Obediently
The men under Mantianhong's command had guns pointed at them before they even raised their guns.

Facing the muzzle of a gun, even a murderous man like Hu Zi couldn't help but feel scared.

Although Tuotianliang was very angry, he was helpless and dared not move.

The sudden change left Bai Shanhao and others dumbfounded.

No one could have imagined that he had just said that he didn't want to make enemies with the gangs, but in the blink of an eye he shot and killed the leader of Mantianhong?

Isn't this a quick change of attitude? It looks more like a beard than a beard.

"Master Qu, oh, what do you mean?

Lao Cao is just impatient, he didn't come to his senses, you see, this is what happened."

Bai Shanhao is older after all and has experienced more big scenes. Although he is frightened at this moment, he can at least maintain his composure on the surface.

"Well, Master Qu, can't we just listen to you?
From now on, I, Baishan Haoluanzi, will withdraw from this mountain area. We will never go to the mountain area to collect offerings again. Your Excellency can rest assured."

Bai Shanhao is an experienced man and he understands the current situation clearly. If they dare to refuse today, none of them will be able to leave and they will lose their lives here.

Forget it, forget it. No matter how many offerings are offered in the mountain field, you have to be alive to enjoy them.

The group of people in front of me are not the useless officers and soldiers in the past. Their ruthlessness is more frightening than their beards. It’s better not to get into trouble with them.

Just get by with it today, saving your life is the most important thing, we’ll think of another solution later.

"Yes, yes, what Master Luo said makes sense. Since you have spoken, we must give you some respect.

That's it, from now on, we will withdraw from the mountain field and worship this area." Xiao Sihai saw it and quickly agreed.

Seeing this, the leaders of the other gangs dared not say anything else and all expressed their willingness to withdraw from the mountain farm.

"Look, wouldn't it have been better if it had been done earlier? Why bother with all the hassles and make everyone unhappy?"

Qu Shaoyang nodded, very satisfied with the act of killing a chicken to scare the monkeys.

"Old Fang, go and get all the heads of the families to sign the document I prepared in advance.

Words are not enough, let us put it in writing as evidence.

Everyone can just collect the offerings from the mountain this year. Starting next year, we can no longer do this.

I have to report this to my superiors, please don't make it difficult for me."

Qu Shaoyang's words were full of threats, both overt and covert.

Those bearded men are all very smart, how could they not understand? He cursed inwardly.

This guy is so fucking mean. It’s not enough to just agree verbally, I have to sign a document.

Lao Fang took out a document that he had prepared long ago and asked the leaders of the remaining gangs to sign on it.

Most of the men with beards are rough and uncouth, but that doesn’t matter, because there are literate people under his command.

Just read it to them, and then put a red handprint under each person's name.

After signing and sealing, Lao Fang handed the document to Qu Shaoyang. Qu Shaoyang took a look at it and put it away with satisfaction.

This thing is actually not very useful. How many of those bearded men follow the rules? They will not really follow it just because they have signed and put their fingerprints on it.

What really scares those bearded men is force and guns.

Without these things to intimidate them, those lawless bearded men would not be obedient.

However, this document is of great use to Qu Shaoyang, as he can take it to the governor to seek credit.

This thing, plus the heads of Zhan Dongshan and Mantianhong, can be sent to the government office in the eastern region, which will be a great achievement.

This is essential if Qu Shaoyang wants to gain a firm foothold in the East Road Office. "I am very happy to be with you all today.

In order to prepare for today's grand event, I have made preparations in advance for a long time. I specially bought good wine from Dianzi Street and slaughtered two big fat pigs this morning.

Now that everyone is here, there is nothing else to say, you must stay for dinner and have a couple of drinks. "

Qu Shaoyang was happy. He waved his hand and asked people to clean up and prepare for the banquet.

Here, Chen Yunhan led his men, took away the guns of all the members of the Red Bandits, tied them all up, and took them to the woodshed to arrange for guards.

After that, Chen Yunhan selected a group of men and immediately went down the mountain to eliminate the men that Mantianhongluanzi had arranged at the foot of the mountain.

Since Mantianhong is ignorant, there is no need for the group to exist.

Bai Shanhao and others couldn't help feeling sympathetic as they watched Mantianhong's men being taken away.

This whip-beating ceremony is held every year, who could have imagined that something like this would happen this year?
Zhan Dongshan, Zhan Dongshan, you do bad things every day.

If the government were brought in, it wouldn't matter if I lost my life, but my brothers would suffer.

Given this situation, how could Bai Shanhao and others have the mood to stay and eat and drink?

But when everyone looked at Qu Shaoyang sitting on the tiger-skin chair at the top, no one dared to refuse.

Just kidding, this guy looks smiling and easy to talk to, but in fact he is like the King of Hell. He will kill people without blinking an eye.

Whoever dares to provoke them will probably be the next to die.

"Thank you for your kindness, Lord Qu. We will respectfully obey your orders and let you spend the money."

Bai Shanhao clasped his hands together and saluted, smiling awkwardly.

"That's fine, that's fine. I love making friends in the martial arts world. Let's drink together today, and tomorrow we'll all be brothers.

If there is anything good in the future, I will think of you all."

You can't just keep threatening people. You have to give them a sweet reward after a blow. Qu Shaoyang knew this very well and said this on purpose.

"Oh, thank you very much, Master Qu. Please take good care of me in the future."

Bai Shanhao and the others were not blind, they could see that the people who had just taken action were not from simple backgrounds, their agility and ruthlessness should also be from horizontal handles.

In other words, those people were most likely recruited by Qu Shaoyang.

Looking at the clothes and guns those people wear, you can tell they live a good life. If I say I'm not envious, I'd be lying.

"It's so comfortable to be a beard, eat delicious food, and hug a fighting flower."

"Ride a big horse, drink flower wine, play with sharp fruits and eat big meat."

These are two rhymes circulating among the gangs, which simply and directly express the ideal state of being a beard.

Therefore, many idle, indolent ruffians regard beard growing as a god-like profession.

He sharpened his head and tried every means to join the gang in the hope of living a happy and carefree life.

But in fact, after becoming a beard man, I realized that most of them don’t have the opportunity to eat meat happily. Instead, being beaten and tired is the norm.

For Hu Zi, smashing the kiln represents a point of no return, and hibernating represents a big examination hall. They have to be wary of each other on weekdays, and even have to keep one ear perked up when sleeping.

In this cruel environment, although they can get money and live a lavish life of eating and drinking, most of the bearded men do not live long and few have a good end.

Therefore, most people with beards yearn for the day when they can shed their beards, marry, have children and live a legitimate life.
