The Young and Vigorous Eighth Prince

Looking at these foreigners, Jiang Fan smiled. Today, Great Yan is likely to be visited by many nations. It is said that his father has received many requests for annexation from small nations.

On the streets, those foreigners spoke politely to the Chinese people, and the Chinese people also got along well with them.

Seeing this scene, Su Fan thought of China in his previous life, how many foreigners bullied the Chinese people at will. This also made many people worship foreigners.

Now seeing the pride on the faces of the Chinese people, he knew that in this life, only foreigners could admire the Chinese, because anywhere in China was at the forefront of the world.

After Jiang Fan and his three companions settled down, they came downstairs to the inn to prepare for dinner. Not long after they sat down, suddenly, a man with a rat-like look looked around and quickly came over to Jiang Fan's table.

This person glanced at Qing Lingxiu, his eyes lit up instantly, and a look of lust and greed flashed across his eyes.

Qing Lingxiu is pure and beautiful, and her looks are absolutely top-notch. Any man who sees her would be moved. When she came here before, many people on the road turned back to look at her.

But most of the people were simple and kind-hearted. Although they were attracted by Qing Lingxiu's beauty, they just watched and no one came to cause trouble.

After all, the politics in Yongning Prefecture, and even in the whole of China, is clean and honest, and it is rare to see people being robbed in the street like this.

Jiang Fan looked at the man and frowned. Although he felt a little uncomfortable, he was not so petty as to kill someone just because of the look in the other person's eyes.

"Hey young man, where are you from...where are you going?" The man reluctantly withdrew his gaze and asked Jiang Fan tentatively.

When Jiang Fan heard this, a hint of amusement flashed in his eyes. He pressed his hand slightly to calm the two guards.

He wanted to see what tricks this guy was playing, actually trying to find out his background.

"We are from Jiangzhou and want to go out to sea to try our luck. Nowadays, there are opportunities to make a fortune everywhere... We can't miss them!" He looked at the other person with a smile.

When that person heard that Jiang Fan was from Jiangzhou, his eyes suddenly lit up. Jiangzhou is an inland province, some distance away from Yuezhou.

"Brother, you are looking for an opportunity to make a fortune. That's great. I have a way to get rich. I wonder if you are interested?" The other party said with a smile.

"Oh... I wonder how to make money..." Jiang Fan looked at the other party.

Hearing this, the man looked around and whispered to Jiang Fan, "Brother, why don't we find a place to talk..."

Jiang Fan frowned when he heard that. Qing Lingxiu, who was standing beside him, showed a look of vigilance and quickly looked at Jiang Fan.

She could tell that the man in front of her probably had no good intentions for them.

Jiang Fan gave Qing Lingxiu a reassuring look, nodded to the man and said, "Okay... please lead the way!"

The man was overjoyed when he heard that. He stood up and walked out. Jiang Fan was about to follow him when a waiter came over and looked at him hesitantly, wanting to say something.

He was about to speak when the wretched man suddenly snorted. This made the waiter shut up immediately, looked at Jiang Fan with a complicated expression, and turned away.

Jiang Fan looked puzzled and took a deep look at the waiter, but still followed the man out of the inn. Qing Lingxiu and two guards ran over to him.

Led by the man, the group came to a small courtyard, and the other party led Jiang Fan in. As soon as he entered the courtyard, Jiang Fan looked at the rows of houses.

This location is very remote and secretive, but the house in front of Jiang Fan gave him an indescribable sense of weirdness.

Moreover, a familiar smell came from the house. This smell made Jiang Fan frown, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

Opium! Someone was secretly selling opium here. He didn't expect that two years after the ban on smoking, opium was still being sold in coastal areas.

However, it was obvious that the sale of opium was carried out in secret, or in other words, some people among the people knew about it but no one dared to report it.

Or maybe the local officials were colluding with these people! If the newly sent officials were colluding with the opium merchants, it would be really difficult to ban opium in China!

"Young man, I have a good thing here. Why don't you try it first? After you try it, we can talk about business. How about it?" The man looked at Jiang Fan, then at Qing Lingxiu, with lust in his eyes that could not be concealed.

Jiang Fan sneered in his heart when he heard this. This man was probably beating him just to get him addicted to opium. Once he was addicted, he would be controlled by others.

The other party might want to use his identity as a Jiangzhou native from the inland to help him sell opium to the inland.

The other party even wanted to take advantage of him being controlled by opium and then take the opportunity to rob Qing Lingxiu. Once he was addicted to opium, he would turn into a beast. It was nothing to give up his woman.

Jiang Fan looked at the man with a smile and waved to the two guards behind him.

Two white-robed soldiers immediately rushed out and captured the man in front of them in the blink of an eye.

However, despite their quick movements, they soon alarmed the people in the house in front. In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen people who looked like thugs ran out.

Seeing the man being restrained, the thugs immediately rushed towards the two guards. These two guards were the elites who came out first from the white robe army.

Although they were only second-rate masters, it was still very easy for them to deal with these small fighters. It took less than ten breaths of time for all the dozen fighters to be knocked down.

Jiang Fan ordered two guards to tie up the thugs. The people in the room who were smoking opium had no reaction to the fight outside. Through the door, Jiang Fan could see them lying there like corpses, looking very happy.

When Jiang Fan saw this, a chill welled up in his eyes. He asked the guards to bring the first man in front of him and cut off one of his fingers.

After the man was cut, he screamed in pain and his face turned pale. He looked at Jiang Fan in astonishment, his eyes full of shock and disbelief.

He thought he had found a fat sheep, but he never expected that he had found a fierce tiger. Just now he was thinking of dragging the other party into the water. As long as the other party smoked opium, the beautiful woman next to the other party would be at his disposal.

But he never expected that the other party would suddenly attack and injure people before he could implement his plan. He couldn't help but shudder when he thought of the other party's calmness and indifference in letting his men cruelly cut off his fingers.

"Hasn't smoking been banned in Yongning Prefecture? Why are you still selling opium here! Answer my questions well, and I won't kill you. Otherwise..." Jiang Fan looked at the man coldly, and when he said this, he winked at the guard.

The guard quickly walked to the dozen or so thugs, raised his hand and slashed at one of the thugs with a knife.
