Wu Gang thought of the threats from the people in the gambling house before, and said with a pinched neck: "I don't know..."

When Pei Yuan saw this, he couldn't help but sneered.

He turned around and signaled to the person on the side, and then walked out of the room.

Wu Gang's frightened voice was remembered in the room.

"Who are you? What do you want to do?"

Wu Gang has not forgotten that Pei Yuan said before that they were from the government.

Now that he realized that this place was not a government office at all, Wu Gang couldn't help but panic.

If he was only in the government, he would not be so afraid.

As long as the people in the gambling house know his situation, they will definitely go to the government to save him.

But now, he didn't even know where this place was. How could he not be afraid?

Pei Yuan knew that it was not easy to deal with people like Wu Gang, so he was not in a hurry and waited for news from next door.

I originally thought Wu Gang could hold on for a few days, but unexpectedly someone came looking for him the next day.

"General Pei, he's done it."

When Pei Yuan heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

After glancing at Xuanyuan Ke and Zhang Siyuan next to him, he stood up and headed towards the next door.

Seeing this, Rong Xiuyun did not participate.

After all, this is Zhou Dynasty's political affairs, and it is not appropriate for him to get involved now.

However, before he could leave, Xuanyuan Ke suddenly stopped.

"Master Rong, please come and listen. It may be beneficial to both of us."

Rong Xiuyun knew that the 'we' Xuanyuan Ke mentioned were Dazhou and Baiyue, so she followed them without hesitation.

Wu Gang originally thought that the only person coming was Pei Yuan.

But when he saw Xuanyuan Ke, Zhang Siyuan and others, Wu Gang realized that something was wrong.

I also know that the identities of these people are not simple and they are not ordinary people.

It was also at this moment that he realized that Pei Yuan was not an ordinary person.

"Tell me about what happened at the gambling house."

Pei Yuan asked.

Wu Gang didn't dare to hide it this time, so he immediately told a few people about the gambling house.

"I lost the money my sister gave me that day. I originally thought I could borrow money from the gambling house. Unexpectedly, they stopped lending it to me and kicked me out of the gambling house."

When Wu Gang thought about what happened that day, he felt very angry.

He had obviously stayed in the gambling house for so long, but he didn't expect that the other party wouldn't even lend her this little money.

It was winter now, and those people drove him out without thinking about his life or death.

"Later I met a businessman at the entrance of the gambling house."

Hearing Wu Gang say this, several people couldn't help but narrowed their eyes.

"What kind of businessman?"

Xuanyuan Ke asked.

"A foreigner."

Everyone's hearts jumped when they heard this.

A businessman from a foreign country? This was something no one expected.

They originally thought that the people in the gambling house might be the Eighth Prince's people, but they didn't expect that there were people from other countries involved.

Thinking of the special situation in Qingshui County now, Xuanyuan Ke couldn't help but frown.

If what happens in Qingshui County is exposed, this place may be in danger.

However, there has been no bad news about Li Juntong so far, which makes everyone feel at ease.

"What does that businessman want from you?"

When Wu Gang heard the inquiry, he glanced at Zhang Siyuan with some guilt.

But he didn't dare to hide it.

"The businessman told me that as long as I get the Zhang family's workshop, he will give me one hundred taels of silver."

When Wu Gang thought about this, he still felt flustered.

After all, the only workshop in Xiaozhangzhuang is well-known in their area, and even people from the government have to guard this workshop.

Although Wu Gang wanted money, he was not so overconfident.

Although the other party gave him a lot of money, Wu Gang also knew that he was just an ordinary person and could not get hold of just a workshop.

Seeing the other party looking at him seriously, Wu Gang also told the truth to the other party.

He said that he was just an ordinary person and had no access to the only workshop in Xiao Zhangzhuang.

What's more, the people from the government are still guarding him. If he dares to go somewhere to cause trouble, he is afraid that he will go to jail tomorrow.

Although Wu Gang coveted the banknotes that the other party took out, he knew that he couldn't get the money.

Wu Gang himself knew the importance of money versus life.

"What? Did you accept the money in the end? Do you think you can take over the workshop?"

Pei Yuan squinted his eyes and looked at Wu Gang. He didn't know where the other man's confidence came from, and felt that he, a gambler, could win the workshop.

When Wu Gang heard this, he shook his head repeatedly.

"I knew I couldn't get the workshop, so I rejected him. He said that I was just an ordinary person. Not only could I not get the workshop, but it was also difficult to get close to the workshop."

After all, Wujiacun is not close to Xiaozhangzhuang. Even if people from Wujiacun want to come to Xiaozhangzhuang as long as they work in the workshop, it depends on whether people from other villages close to Xiaozhangzhuang are willing.

Pei Yuan said nothing, waiting for his next words.

"Finally, the man told me about the Zhang family's sister-in-law, and said that as long as I can persuade the Zhou family to come forward and ask the Zhang family's sister-in-law to help me, I will definitely win this workshop."

When everyone heard Wu Gang's words, they understood why the Zhou family, who had not had any contact with each other for a long time, suddenly came to the door.

"I didn't agree when he said this. I knew that the daughter of the Zhou family was sold, not married off."

"Even if the Zhou family comes forward, it may not be possible to give this workshop from the Zhang family to the Zhou family."

"But I didn't expect that he would investigate in such detail. He even knew about the daughter of the Zhou family. He said that no matter what method I used, as long as I could get the workshop, he would not only give me another hundred taels Money, from now on I can enter any gambling house and I won’t accept money.”

When everyone heard this, they knew that Wu Gang was moved.

After all, for a gambler, the temptation of gambling houses is not small.

"I thought about it for a long time when I went back, and then I decided to convince my sister."

When everyone heard this, they also thought of Wu Gang's sister.

The woman who would even leave her three sons, husband and family behind for her younger brother.

"Your sister is willing to help you just because she heard you say this?"

Pei Yuan didn't understand that even a wise man would not agree with his brother's behavior.

Wu Gang shook his head, "I just told my sister that as long as she is willing to help me, she can become a rich wife in the county in the future."

"At that time, she will be able to live a life of fine clothing and fine food, with people taking care of her when she does everything."

Everyone knew that with Wu Hua's playful and lazy temperament, she would indeed take the bait when Wu Gang offered such a bait.

After all, the life of a wealthy lady was what Wu Hua dreamed of.
