I have been a county magistrate for ten years. My subordinates insist on giving me a yellow robe.

A few dozen meters away, the old bandit looked at the four people who had gone around in a circle and came back, and his heart was beating fast.

Oh my god! I guessed it right, it's obvious that he's here to cause trouble!

"Little guys, take care of your eyes and don't look blindly!"

After giving these instructions, the old bandit squatted on the ground and began to look at the ants with great interest.

"Old Wang, we are bandits. If this gets out, people will look down on us," said the young bandit aggrievedly.

The old bandit immediately slapped him and said, "You know nothing, kid. I just want to ask you why you became a bandit?"

"Because I don't have enough food to eat." The little bandit shrank his neck and spoke quickly.

The old bandit smiled immediately and said, "That's right! We are just trying to make a living. If we encounter a caravan that is easy to fight, we will take advantage of it. If we encounter a caravan that is not easy to fight, we will just ignore it."

Just as the two finished their words, they saw four people coming over. The guy in the lead was waving two colorful papers in his hands, which made a snapping sound when they clapped against his hands.

The young bandit's eyes widened as he quickly grabbed the old bandit's clothes.

"Old Wang, Old Wang! Look, is that a banknote in that man's hand?"

Old Wang immediately looked over subconsciously, but unexpectedly, because of this glance, the young man in the lead changed his expression almost instantly.

"What the hell! What are you looking at!"

"I, I, didn't see anything." Old Wang said hurriedly.

"Didn't you see anything?" Jiang Yuan looked at Old Wang for a few times, then pretended to have known it for a long time.

"Hmph! Stop talking nonsense. We don't know each other. I was just passing by here, but you insisted on looking at me. This proves that you have a voyeuristic mind towards me!"

"Add to that the banknotes I have in my hand, which is enough to prove that you are greedy. If you are so greedy, then killing someone is just a thought away!"

"To sum up, you want to kill me."

"You have a way to die!"

Old Wang looked at Jiang Yuan in shock. What the hell is going on? Wasn't I just taking a look out of curiosity?

If you keep going on, you might end up stretching my file to eight feet high.

"No, no, this young man, you..."

Before he could finish his words, Jiang Yuan suddenly picked up a wooden stick from the ground and said, "What do you mean by 'you'? Don't try to get close to me."

"You just want to lower my guard so you can sneak attack and kill me? I'm telling you, that's impossible. Brothers, grab your weapons and kill them!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the four of them rushed forward with ferocious looks.

Old Wang swallowed hard and hurriedly drew the hatchet from his waist.

I don't want to cause trouble, but you are being too bullying.

Even if I haven't won the fight, I absolutely cannot run away. If this gets out, the boss will definitely drive me out of the stronghold.

"Kids! Grab your weapons and fight them!" Old Wang had just finished shouting when he opened his mouth wide.

The four guys who looked like they were going to fight to the death just now were now squatting on the ground with their heads in their hands. The young man in the lead was looking at him.

"Your Highness, we are blind and ignorant. We are being presumptuous. Please don't kill us. We have money on us."

Jiang Yuan said this and directly handed over two silver bills.

Old Wang looked at the two silver notes with a face value of one hundred taels in his hand in confusion and pinched his thigh hard.

Wow! Seriously, after all these years, I've finally made some progress!

The last time Old Wang saw banknotes was when he followed the chief of the village out to rob passing merchants. He still remembers the chief of the village smiling from ear to ear.

He even sneaked down the mountain to go to the city at night, and when he came back the next day, he brought a fragrant handkerchief with him.

Now he actually managed to snatch the silver note. When he goes up to the stronghold later, if the chieftain is happy, he might reward him with two bowls of wine.

"Well, we'll take the money, but don't worry, we thieves have our own code of conduct, so we won't make things difficult for you. Let's go quickly." Old Wang waved his hand.

Jiang Yuan suddenly became anxious: "No, if you don't take us up, how can we feast on your mountain stronghold? No, repent."

"Besides, the man behind me is my young master, whose wealth exceeds tens of millions of taels. Do you really think he's not worthy of your kindness?"

Old Wang trembled all over and his legs felt a little weak. Tens of millions of taels?

Doesn't this mean that I have offended some powerful guy?

Thinking of this, Old Wang hurriedly helped Jiang Yuan up and stuffed the two silver bills back into his hand.

"Young man, let's keep our distance. You go your way, and I'll go mine, okay?"

"Just pretend we haven't met today, okay?"

Jiang Yuan bit his back teeth to pieces. "No, brother, I'm saying this so that you can take us back and kidnap us!"

What do you mean by letting us go directly?

"Brother, do you have a dream?"

Hearing Jiang Yuan's sudden question, Old Wang was stunned for a moment before he slowly said, "Yes, I really wanted to marry Xiao Cui from our village back then, but unfortunately, my family was too poor, and later Xiao Cui was sold to a landlord as a concubine by her parents..."

Jiang Yuan patted Lao Wang's shoulder fiercely: "Very good, then, what is your dream now?"

"Eat and wait for death."

Jiang Yuan: "..."

"No, I mean, don't you want to live a better life?"

"See those guys behind me? They're all rich. If you kidnap them, I'll give you whatever money you want. Wouldn't it be nice to live a carefree life from now on?"

Old Wang looked at Jiang Yuan with a strange look, and it seemed that there was something wrong with his brain.

Otherwise, why would they beg me to kidnap them? They look so pathetic, and I guess what they are saying is just nonsense.

"Kid, hurry up and go. I see that it's not easy for you. I don't want your money. Just go." Old Wang looked at Jiang Yuan pitifully.

"I'm so fucking screwed." Jiang Yuan squeezed out a word from between his teeth, and then put his hand on Lao Wang's shoulder again.

"Brother, to be honest, I have my young master behind me. He is young and ignorant, and he wants me to take him with him to experience some life. I thought that this mountain stronghold would definitely make him understand the dangers of the world, so I came up with this desperate plan. I hope you can help me, and you will definitely benefit from it after it is accomplished."

Jiang Yuan advised earnestly, and Old Wang looked at the people behind Jiang Yuan.

A middle-aged man, definitely not the so-called young master. As for the other of the two young men (Duanmu Yuanchen), he was as thin as a monkey, and was probably a hungry servant.

The only one who looks like the young master is the big guy. With his physique, he really looks like one.

"Oh, so that's the case. I'm willing to do you a favor, but I see your young master is not young anymore. Doesn't he understand things?"

Jiang Yuan shook his head in distress: "Brother, you are mistaken. Although my young master looks big, he is actually only eight years old."

"How big?" Old Wang looked at Jiang Yuan in shock.

Jiang Yuan nodded, as if to cheer himself up.

"Yes, eight years old."

"He's only eight years old?" Old Wang looked at Wang Gang in disbelief.

Wang Gang, who was waited for, immediately became unhappy and puffed out his chest to glare at Old Wang.

"What's wrong with being eight years old?"
