Girl, let me check it out.

"You're welcome. Since I'm a vassal king of the Great Zhou, I should do things that a vassal king should do."
"It is my duty to eradicate evil and punish wickedness."
He said it in a powerful voice.
There were already quite a few people gathered around them, and when they heard this, they looked at each other, feeling ashamed and moved.
It's no wonder they made such a fuss. Fang Weihan just said a few nice words and made them feel grateful.
The main thing is that Fang Weihan really did something practical for them.
The Song family gang has been entrenched in the outer city district for who knows how many years, and has been sucking the blood of the people there.
Everyone has always had to endure it silently, watching the already meager wages they received, and in addition to paying taxes to the state, they also had to give another 30% to the Song family.
Whether you live or die has nothing to do with them; whether you can afford to pay the money has nothing to do with them.
They don't even treat the people in the outer city as human beings.
So do the bigwigs in the inner city treat them as human beings?
Apparently not.
I don’t know how many noble people’s pockets were filled with the money seized by the Song family gang.
Their pockets were filled with gold and silver treasures, their mouths were chewing delicious meat, and they felt that everything was at peace in the world.
What does the rest have to do with them?
So when they learned that the Song family gang that had been suppressing them for many years was uprooted and replaced by Ji Gang and others, they all felt a more or less unreal feeling in their minds.
They couldn't help but feel a natural gratitude towards the King of Guangling and Miss Tao, whom they had never met.
When they saw Fang Weihan with their own eyes today and heard what Fang Weihan said here with their own ears, their gratitude became even more overwhelming.
People like Fang Weihan are very rare in the upper echelons of the entire Great Zhou.
It was obvious that he only said a few words, either from the heart or for the sake of flattery, but he received so much gratitude.
But you have to know that in the current Da Zhou, there are so many people who don't even want to say these few polite words.
When the aristocratic families monopolized almost all the channels for upward mobility, when the emperor concentrated on seizing power from the aristocratic families, and when the common people completely lost their voice in the empire's decision-making.
Are the lives of ordinary people really that important?
Anyway, they don’t dare to rebel, anyway, they won’t rebel, anyway, they are willing to believe that “a good death is worse than a miserable life”.
So why do you care about them?
What else can you expect an empire that can write into its national laws such words as "If the son of a noble family kills a commoner without reason, he shall pay a fine" to do for its people?
"Thank you, Your Highness."
I don't know who started the first voice to say thank you.
The sound of thanks is endless, a little messy, but also uniform.
The people around formed a circle with Fang Weihan as the center. More and more people joined the circle.
The crowd was like a wave, and they all became shorter.
They knelt down towards Fang Weihan.
The people of the Great Zhou have never had any dignity.
Kneel down when you meet an official, kneel down when you meet an official, kneel down when you meet a king...
When you meet someone of higher status than you, you must kneel down.
They are already used to kneeling.
Our ancestors advocated kneeling to heaven, to the earth, to parents, and at most to an emperor.
Besides, a man would rather die than kneel because he has gold under his knees.
But the ancestors are dead, aren't they?
When the gap in status and power can no longer be constrained by dignity and reason, the only option left for the weak is to kneel down.
They are used to kneeling, but they never really mean it.
Today, maybe for the first time.
Fang Weihan looked around and saw that everyone had white hair; looking into the distance, everyone was wearing short and grey clothes.
They knelt down in front of him, shouting "Thank you, Your Highness".
They are thankful for their own actions and words, not knowing that neither their actions nor their words are sincere.
Fang Weihan was silent.
"Everyone, please stand up. This king is unworthy of this."
he whispered.
"Life will get better."
Under their expectant gazes, Fang Weihan was unable to say anything else and could only say this.
"I will do my best."
He took a deep breath and finally made up his mind.
Fang Weihan decided to turn the possibility that had been lingering in his mind for a long time into reality.
Fang Weihan turned around and went back to the Song Family Gang's hall, only to see Tao Yunjiang and Ji Gang walking out of the warehouse.
"This is too much. How does the Song Clan usually make money?"
While Tao Yunjiang was amazed at the amount of treasures stored in the house, he couldn't help but become even more angry towards the Song family gang.
"They really deserve to die!"
The long sword at the girl's waist was trembling, and the sharp sword energy seemed to be about to overflow from the scabbard.
"Girl, calm down. The Song Clan has been wiped out, and the residents of the outer city can now live a better life."
Ji Gang said quickly.
Tao Yunjiang was still angry and wanted to say something else when he saw Fang Weihan coming over.
"Is the matter done?"
She suppressed the anger on her face and looked at her beloved disciple with a sweet smile.
"Ah."
Fang Weihan nodded at her.
Ji Gang said:
"Your Highness, how are you going to transport these things back? We need our brothers..."
"no need."
Fang Weihan waved his hand.
"I have an idea."
He said in a deep voice, looking at Ji Gang.
"Ji Gang, you have lived in the outer city for many years. Are you familiar with the situation in this area?"
Ji Gang was stunned for a moment.
"No problem, Your Highness. If I can't even do this, then I'm not worthy of managing so many brothers."
"Well."
This is what Fang Weihan was waiting for.
"I'll give you a task. Use this money as start-up capital. Select people from the outer city who are living in poverty and cannot help themselves, and give it to them free of charge and unconditionally. All you need to do is ask them to return the principal and interest after a period of time."
"The interest will be calculated at one tenth of the money house's interest."
This was the possibility that had been lingering in his mind for a long time:
Super low interest loans.
After hearing this, Ji Gang became very anxious and could no longer sit still.
Tao Yunjiang also raised his head and looked at him blankly, his eyes full of complexity.
"Your Highness, you can't do that!"
He quickly dissuaded him.
"This is sixty thousand taels of silver, this..."
Fang Weihan interrupted directly.
"so what."
He smiled.
"With these 60,000 taels of silver, you can only buy a piece of land in Tian Street in the inner city, or make a few splashes in a brothel."
"But putting it here can save many lives."
Fang Weihan turned around, walked to the window, and looked at the crowd outside who were still gathered and refused to disperse.
They are still waiting for themselves.
"My surname is Fang, and the surname of the country is Zhou. Using Fang to govern Zhou is dirty and intolerable. However, the people are like sand and gravel. If some sand and gravel were to be introduced here to fill the cracks and leaks, how could our great Zhou not be governed?"
He said it in a powerful voice.
Fang Qianyi, there are still differences between you and me.
Old man, stay away from this.
Fang Weihan thought silently in his heart.
I am calculating the people of this world, I am calculating the little life I have left, I am gambling on a tiny possibility.
These sixty thousand taels of silver are another amulet of mine.
Whether it's exploitation or sincerity, none of this matters.
I just want to survive.
Fang Qianyi, did you think so at that time?
He understood a little, but it seemed like he understood nothing.
In the void, the long-lost small blue characters appeared again.
Fang Weihan looked up and felt as if he was in another world.
