Please stop imagining things, I'm such a good person

About half an hour later, the officer came back.

Bao Longxing said seriously, "Tell me everything about your investigation. Don't be biased. Do you understand?"

"I understand, little one!"

The younger officers nodded repeatedly.

"In reply to your words, I followed your instructions and went to Tongqian Lane and Jiuchi Lane. I took off my official uniform and pretended to be a commoner. After my investigation, I found that the merchants there did pay less than other places, and I didn't hear of any cheating."

Hearing this, Fang Hao finally felt relieved and a smile appeared on his face again.

The officer glanced at Fang Hao and said, "It's just..."

Bao Longxing scolded, "Just what? Say it!"

The officer was shocked. "It's just that I heard something. A few days ago, Princess Pingyang had a conflict with the leader of Fengyun Society, and then Princess Pingyang was abducted. The people said... Princess... Princess was abducted to be a concubine."

Dare you kidnap the princess?

Even though Bao Longxing was knowledgeable and experienced, he was still confused by Fang Hao's move.

Fang Hao's mouth twitched, "Rumors, all rumors!"

Bao Longxing picked up the teacup and took a sip, then heaved a sigh of relief, "I knew it, how could someone be so bold, it turns out to be a rumor."

Who would have thought that the next second, Fang Hao continued, "How could I possibly marry her as a concubine? It's just that Jin Beibei was rude, so I asked her to work as a laundry maid for two days to teach her a lesson!"

"Pfft~"

Bao Longxing spat out all the tea and looked at Fang Hao in surprise. My goodness, you really kidnapped the princess!

wrong!

Bao Longxing frowned, as if thinking of something, "The Sixth Prince loves this only daughter the most. When such a big thing happened, no one from the Sixth Prince's Mansion came?"

Fang Hao looked innocent, "I'm also waiting for someone from the palace, but it's been three days and there's still no news..."

Bao Longxing: "......"

"Ahem, you guys go down first!"

Bao Longxing waved his hand, and the two officers hurried away, not daring to stay for a moment.

After they walked out the door, the two looked at each other, as if... they had heard something extraordinary.

After the officer left, Bao Longxing sighed, "If all the gangs in the world were as righteous as you, Gang Leader Fang, our Great Jin would have become the leader of the Seven Kingdoms long ago!"

Bao Longxing was skeptical about Fang Hao's words. After all, he was a gang member. But he didn't expect that the results of the police's investigation would be exactly as Fang Hao said, which made him feel deeply moved.

Fang Hao said, "Master Bao, do you believe what I say this time?"

Bao Longxing nodded, "I am judging others by my own standards, which is not what a gentleman does, but it is my duty, so please don't mind, Gang Leader Fang."

Fang Hao said, "I don't mind, but I haven't finished talking before. Have you heard anything about the four major gangs in the outer city?"

"As the prefect of Shengdu, I am naturally aware of these four major gangs. What does Gang Leader Fang want to say?"

Fang Hao looked helpless. "The Qinglong Society, one of the four major gangs, has a leader named Cang Zhengqi. He has a younger brother named Cang Zhengsong. Cang Zhengsong indulges in drinking, gambling, whoring, and bullying the people, and even robs women!"

"I couldn't bear to see that young woman fall into the pit of fire, so I saved her. But Cang Zhengqi was so arrogant and domineering that he brought people to attack me. Although I fought them off, I also offended the Qinglong Society. I'm afraid that the Qinglong Society will interfere in this soap incident."

"Snapped!"

Bao Longxing slammed the table angrily, "In broad daylight, does Cang Zhengsong still know the laws of the country?!"

After verifying what Fang Hao said, Bao Longxing's trust in him increased significantly. At this moment, he didn't think that Fang Hao was lying. Bao Longxing, who loved his people like his own children, was immediately furious.

"Those four gangs are connected to each other, control a large number of markets in the outer city, and have many subordinates. If I were not afraid of causing unrest in the outer city, I would have eradicated these cancers long ago!"

Fang Hao quickly added, "Mr. Bao hates evil and hates evil. I'm afraid he is afraid to take action because of the people. But justice may be late, but it will never be absent! They will not have a good end!"

Bao Longxing glanced at Fang Hao and asked, "Boss Fang, do you want me to help you eliminate the Qinglong Society?"

Fang Hao's eyes lit up, "Is it okay?"

Bao Longxing said unhappily, "There are many masters in the court. It is easy to eliminate them, but what will happen next? If they counterattack before they die, do you know how much harm it will cause to the people?"

Fang Hao smiled awkwardly, "If that's the case, then forget it. But Lord Fang, I plan to sell soap in Tongqian Lane. Can you send a team of Jinwu Guards to guard it so that no scoundrels come to cause trouble?"

Bao Longxing snorted coldly, "The Jinwu Guards are the imperial guards, how could they help you guard the gate!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Fang Hao immediately became unhappy. This group of black guys, did they want to get it for free? He wanted to take 30% of the profit from me, and then he asked me to do him a favor but was reluctant to do so!

Fang Hao immediately stood up and said, "In that case, I'll take my leave now, and the soap issue will be dropped."

"Wait a minute!"

Bao Longxing shouted, "Boss Fang, are you threatening me with this?"

Fang Hao said expressionlessly, "That's not the case. It's just that the Azure Dragon Society will definitely take revenge. Without the Jinwu Guards, the shop will be smashed right after it opens. It's better not to open it."

Bao Longxing was torn between the concerns of abusing his power for personal gain and the miserable refugees outside the city. This put him in a dilemma.

Oh~ People with strong principles are really a headache.

Fang Hao sighed and spoke again, "Master Bao, you are not abusing your power for personal gain. After all, the Jinwu Guards are there to protect the people. I, Fang Hao, am also a citizen of the Great Jin. I feel threatened. Master Bao, you sent a team of Jinwu Guards to protect me. Is there anything wrong with that?"

"Besides, they are the Jinwu Guards. Would they help me to oppress the people? At most, they can protect me from getting hurt and my property from being damaged."

Bao Longxing's eyes lit up, and after changing his concept, he suddenly felt that this matter was reasonable and legal.

"Master Fang, please do not disturb me. You are a citizen of the Great Jin Dynasty. If you are afraid of gang forces, I will send a team of Jinwu Guards to protect you. This is reasonable and legal!"

"In that case, I'll take my leave now, Master Bao. I'll go back and clean up the shop and try to open it tomorrow!"

Fang Hao was about to say goodbye and leave when Bao Longxing called him off.

"Ahem, Boss Fang, excuse me, what is the price of your soap..."

Fang Hao said casually, "Soap is one tael of silver each, and perfume is ten taels of silver per bottle."

"Hey~ That's not right~"

Bao Longxing pretended to be serious and said, "These two items are extremely rare. As the saying goes, treasures belong to those with good morals. It is inappropriate to sell them at such a low price!"

Good man, whoever returns the treasure should be the one with virtue. The virtue you are talking about cannot be money, right?

Fang Hao was complaining in his heart, but he said, "So what do you mean?"

Bao Longxing's face was flushed, "Soap is ten taels a piece, perfume is a hundred taels a bottle!"

Fang Hao, "..."

Good man, I was wondering why you weren't dark anymore, it turns out that all the darkness is in your heart, it has increased tenfold in an instant, you really dare to think so!

"Your Excellency is wise. We cannot sell the treasure at a low price. This price is just right!"
