Chapter 249 Human trafficking?

"It's not a big deal. I just want you to help steal a child..."

Before Fan Hongwei could finish his words, Niu Qiu exclaimed, "Steal a child? Lord Fan, you are not asking me to steal the Wang family's child. After all, I am from the same village as their family."

Fan Hongwei sneered, "Why, aren't you the kind of person who would even sell out his parents for money?"

"Master Fan..."

Loach's face flushed, and he wanted to say something tough, but before he could finish his words, he looked at Fan Hongwei's sinister look, and swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue, and changed his words with a flattering smile:

"Sir, you are right. You are very good at judging people. For money, I would even sell my parents.

But the problem is that there was a man in that family who won the third place in the imperial examination, and that child was the man's child.

If I dare to steal that child, I will be caught by the government and my skin will be peeled off and my tendons will be pulled out!"

We are still in a peaceful time now. Although there are some unfair things, it is still tolerable. The law is not too corrupt. There are very severe punishments for some truly evil people, even human traffickers.

Once caught, they would most likely be taken to the market and beheaded.

For those whose parents or families have connections, even without any hints, the government and even the jailers will find opportunities to deal with the human traffickers.

He dared to steal the child of the top scholar. Not only the jailers, but even the county magistrate would not let him off easily.

I'm afraid he will have to be tortured from time to time before being beheaded.

"I know that there is a third place winner in the imperial examination in your village!"

Fan Hongwei snorted coldly, his face full of envy.

The status of a monk is actually no worse than that of a scholar, but he is just a second-rate monk, not even as good as a scholar, let alone a third place in the imperial examination. How could he not envy Wang Ruhai for being the third place in the imperial examination?

Not to mention him, anyone who knew that Wang Ruhai was the top three in high school would be envious.

Everyone knows that Wang Ruhai was just the son of a farmer, but he managed to pass the imperial examination and become the top three in the imperial examination, and he also married the daughter of the prime minister.

although.

There are many interesting stories among them!
He divorced his first wife and married the prime minister's daughter, who was a second marriage and had a child...

Although many people openly despise what Wang Ruhai did, if they were Wang Ruhai, there is no doubt that they would be more decisive than Wang Ruhai.

Fan Hongwei was a monk, but he was also an ordinary person. He sneered, "As for your Hutougou's Wang Tanhua, he did things worse than animals. Do you think he would care about the life or death of his divorced wife and children?"

He would sneer at Wang Ruhai, not because he had a high moral standard and could not stand what Wang Ruhai did, but because he was jealous of Wang Ruhai.

He was jealous that Wang Ruhai passed the imperial examination and won the third place in the imperial examination, and married a beautiful wife - the daughter of the prime minister, and had the prime minister as his backer.

of course.

There was another sentence he didn't say, which was that the prime minister's daughter remarried with her child. Maybe she was expecting her child to inherit Wang Ruhai's family business in the future. Naturally, she hoped that the child of Wang Ruhai's first wife would die.

This way, no one will compete with her children for the family property!
"Master Fan, you are right. It is unlikely that the Wang Tanhua in our village would care about the life of the child from the Wang family in Hutougou!"

Loach sighed slightly, with a complicated expression.

Wang Ruhai could be said to be the pride of their Hutougou. They had little contact and were just acquaintances. After all, he was a scholar and was already famous even before he passed the imperial examination.

He has made great achievements!

but.

Every time they met, he greeted him warmly, and Wang Ruhai would respond more or less. He still had a good impression of Wang Ruhai. He was able to gain a foothold in Qingyang County thanks to Wang Ruhai's reputation.

People didn't dare to bully him casually because they were afraid that he had a relationship with Wang Ruhai. He also regarded Wang Ruhai as his pride and often boasted about Wang Ruhai's deeds, some of which he knew, but most of which he made up.

I never thought...

Wang Ruhai would do something worse than an animal, such as divorcing his first wife and hooking up with the prime minister's daughter.

of course.

He could actually understand what Wang Ruhai did, but it felt like his filter was shattered to some extent.

For a moment, he felt very uncomfortable.

At this time.

He was unwilling to steal Liu Dongzhu and Wang Ruhai's child.

Liu Dongzhu was already miserable. She had just been divorced by Wang Ruhai. If she lost her child, her only hope, he didn't dare to imagine what Liu Dongzhu would do.

Either he committed suicide by jumping into the river or by hanging himself!

This was the only thing he could think of, what Liu Dongzhu would do if she lost her child.

Fan Hongwei snorted coldly: "If that's the case, then why don't you help me steal the child?"

Loach opened his mouth and was about to describe Liu Dongzhu's misery, but when he saw Fan Hongwei's vicious look, he shuddered and reacted immediately.

How could a man like Fan Hongwei care about Liu Dongzhu's misery? After all, the people he bullies the most are pitiful people like Liu Dongzhu.

Not to mention that Fan Hongwei didn't know that if Liu Dongzhu lost her child, she would commit suicide by jumping into the river or hanging herself. Even if he knew, he would still do it.

If I say this to him, he will definitely sneer at me.

Loach changed his words and said, "Master Fan, I just said that Master Luo from Qingyang County has taken a fancy to that child and wants him to be his son-in-law. If Master Luo knew about this, not only me, but even you, Master Fan, would be in trouble!"

"You don't think there's any way back?"

Fan Hongwei glanced at Niu Qiu sarcastically. How could he not understand? He obviously felt sympathy, otherwise he would not have said these words. He was too lazy to teach him a lesson. Seeing the confusion on his face, he sneered:
"Don't forget, the civet cat in my hand belongs to the Wang family you mentioned. If your Mr. Luo knew that it was you who tipped me off, do you think your Mr. Luo would let you go?"

Loach's face turned pale and he said, "Master Fan, didn't you say you would keep it a secret?"

"If you ask me, it would be better to just go all out and steal the child!"

Fan Hongwei did not respond to Niu Qiu's words, and tempted him again: "Don't worry, as long as you steal the child, you will get some benefits. I will give you another ten taels of silver, which is enough for you to settle down in Fengyin County!"

"Master Fan..."

Before Niu Qiu could finish his words, Fan Hongwei interrupted him and said, "Fifteen taels!"

"Master Fan..."

"Twenty taels!"

"Master Fan..."

Before Niu Qi finished speaking, he saw Fan Hongwei opening his mouth, obviously preparing to raise the price, and hurriedly said, "Master Fan, don't raise the price. Twenty taels is enough. I'm just curious. Although the child of the Wang family is valued by Mr. Luo, he is just a child. Master Fan, as I remember, you don't seem to have a business of selling children, right?"

It's not that he didn't want more money, he was afraid that he would have to listen to Fan Hongwei raising the price but not get the money.

　This is the last update, there are ten in total, I won’t say much, I’m begging for your support.
