Daming: The system rejected my request for salted fish

Chapter 1014

"Quick, go to the front hall immediately!"

As he spoke, Gong Honghai adjusted his clothes as he walked to avoid exposing his silk lining.

After a quick walk, the two finally arrived near the front hall. Before they even entered the door, they heard bursts of noise and women crying.

"You, let my son go. He hasn't committed any crime. Why are you arresting him?!"

When Gong Honghai heard his wife's voice, he became anxious and rushed into the front hall to check the situation.

As soon as he entered, he saw more than a dozen yamen runners standing in his front hall, two of whom were holding his son.

His wife cried and held her son's arm tightly, and was in a stalemate with the yamen runners.

Seeing this, Gong Honghai quickly shouted.

"Wait a minute, gentlemen!!"

The woman who was still crying turned around and yelled at Gong Honghai when she heard his voice.

"Master, Master, please save your son!"

"Alright! Just let go and don't worry about this!"

Gong Honghai stepped forward and whispered something. When the woman heard him speak, although she was very reluctant, she still let go of his hand.

Seeing this, Gong Honghai turned to look at the yamen runners, took a deep breath, stepped forward and asked:

"My dear officers, I wonder what crime my son has committed, and why you want to arrest him?"

The yamen runners did not say anything, but all looked at Zhang Hai who had been standing behind and watching the fun.

They knew very well that although their government was handling this matter, the one who could really make the decision was this gentleman.

Seeing the expressions of the yamen runners, Gong Honghai understood who was really in charge, so he also looked over here.

However, just as he was about to speak, Zhang Hai spoke first.

"You are Gong Honghai, right? It's perfect. Since you are here, it's great. Let the servants gather everyone back to the mansion!"

When he heard that everyone was going to be summoned back to the house, Gong Honghai immediately frowned.

"Sir, what is the matter?"

"Hmm~?"

Zhang Hai glanced at Gong Honghai unhappily, and was too lazy to explain. He spoke in an aggressive tone.

"When is it your turn to interfere in the affairs of the court? Either you summon the people back, or I will send people to capture them."

"But you have to understand that if I send someone to arrest you, they won't be as polite as they are now, and they will inevitably suffer some physical pain."

"One stick of incense, I'll only give you one stick of incense. If everyone isn't here by the time, don't blame me!"

As the saying goes, the people should not fight against the officials. Although Gong Honghai is quite wealthy, he is just a businessman after all.

Judging from Zhang Hai's attitude and tone of voice, anyone with a normal brain could be sure that the other party was not an ordinary person.

Now his son is in the hands of the yamen runners. Unless Gong Honghai shouts out "Are there any kings, princes, generals or ministers who are not of the same species?"

Otherwise, he absolutely could not get into conflict with the government officials, so he had no choice but to send his servants to gather everyone.

Finally, before the time of one stick of incense arrived, all the members of the Gong family were called back to the house and gathered in the front hall.

After confirmation, Gong Honghai's one legitimate son, three illegitimate sons and thirteen collateral nephews were all present.

Only then did a smile finally appear on Zhang Hai's face, and then he waved his hand.

"Okay, everyone is here, let's take them all away!"

After giving the order, more than a dozen yamen runners around immediately stepped forward to arrest people!

Gong Honghai, who was already nervous, felt his heart jump to his throat when he heard Zhang Hai's words.

Then he saw the yamen runners coming forward to arrest people. He couldn't stand it and immediately stepped forward to Zhang Hai.

"Sir, my Gong family has not committed any crime. Why are you arresting people for no reason?"

"Illegal and criminal? When did I ever say they were illegal and criminal?"

Zhang Hai looked down at Gong Honghai who was standing in front of him, chuckled, and reached out to push him aside.

Gong Honghai was just a businessman, no match for Zhang Hai. Just a slight push made him stagger five or six meters away.
