Chapter 851

Liu Qinghuan would never tell Chen Guanlou what he envied.

Some things, some thoughts, can only be understood but not expressed in words.

People envy others' wealth and power, but he only envied the other person's freedom.

He had no hope in this life, only in the afterlife.

He said to Chen Guanlou: "After I die, please help me, Chen Yucheng, and let someone sew my body together so that I can be buried in one piece. For this, I will offer all my remaining wealth. I hope Chen Yucheng will do it."

Chen Guanlou didn't quite understand, "You are not afraid of death, you are not afraid of being cut into pieces, but you are afraid that you can't be buried in one piece. Your idea..." is really a bit strange.

Liu Qinghuan didn't hide it, and laughed at himself, "Does Chen Yucheng believe that people have an afterlife?"

"Maybe!"

Chen Guanlou didn't deny it, and gave an ambiguous answer. He was a living example, and it was obvious that people had an afterlife. It's just that this matter is not enough for outsiders to say.

"I also believe that people have afterlife. In my next life, I want to be reborn into an ordinary wealthy family, grow up without worries, and be healthy. If I am buried incomplete, I am worried that I will not be reborn in a good way in the next life. Whether you believe it or not, you have to fight for yourself. Does Chen Yucheng agree?"

Chen Guanlou nodded, "You believe in yours, I believe in mine. My purpose is to take money and do things. As long as the money is in place, I will find the best corpse tailor for you and ensure that you are buried intact. If the money is not in place, all promises will be invalidated."

"Chen Yucheng really has principles in doing things." Liu Qinghuan laughed.

Chen Guanlou also laughed, "Have you discovered that it is the most fair to get things done for money? The cost of getting things done based on personal connections is much higher than money. Since the day when gold and silver became currency, the value of people's work has had a unified standard.

However, the world despises the use of gold and silver as a scale, saying that it is vulgar, and scolding people for recognizing money instead of people. They just love to play with personal connections and recognize people instead of money.

Little do you know that personal connections will increase the cost of doing things exponentially. You guys are all brainwashed. If today, I also play with personal connections, even if you pay me to do something, I won't even look at it, and I won't do anything after receiving the money. Can you bear it?"

Liu Qinghuan was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "No wonder people outside say that Chen Yucheng is unorthodox and unacceptable to the secular world. Now it seems that those rumors are too narrow-minded."

Chen Guanlou raised his eyebrows slightly, "You barely have some brains. It is difficult to treat everyone equally by any standard in the world. Only Only with money can we treat everyone equally, even though there are many drawbacks. At least the standards are visible to everyone, and at least they can cover as many people as possible. How much money is how much, clearly marked. Anyway, the prisoners in the Tianlao all agree with this set of rules, no one is cheated, and there is no need to worry about being asked for too much. "

"I understand." Liu Qinghuan nodded, "I will ask people to raise as much money as possible, please ask Chen Yucheng to wait patiently for a few days."

"It doesn't matter! You can pay the money before you die, I can wait. Are you really not going to confess anything?"

"There is nothing to confess. I will say what I can say. What I can't say, let alone beat me to death, I can't say it even if I am tortured to death. Besides, I am just a deacon of the branch hall, and I don't know much. Don't think highly of me. If I were really that important, I should be in the imperial prison now, not in the Tianlao. "

"That makes sense!" Chen Guanlou clicked his tongue twice, "Your leader is very good." His brainwashing skills are first-class.

Liu Qinghuan was a little confused. He tried to hold back, but couldn't help his curiosity. "Has Chen Yucheng met the leader of my sect?"

"Yes. He is ambitious and talks nonsense. Nine and a half out of ten words he says are false. You have to figure out the remaining half. Otherwise, you will fall into the pit he dug if you are not careful."

"It seems that Chen Yucheng has suffered losses."

"More than that."

Chen Guanlou smiled, "So I am curious why so many people are loyal to an ambitious person. I don't see how extraordinary that guy's leadership is."

"Chen Yucheng is prejudiced against my sect, so he naturally doesn't see the benefits."

"Forget it! Neither you nor I can convince each other. You continue to eat your prison food, and I continue to be my prison warden. Eat well and eat more. After the last meal, you can't eat anything you want."

Leaving the C-shaped prison, he sat under the eaves to bask in the sun and take a nap.

When he woke up, Mu Qingshan brought him an envelope.

"My Lord, someone outside has specifically asked you to give me this letter."

The thick envelope aroused his curiosity, "Who sent it?"

"The other party didn't say. He left after dropping the envelope."

"What does he look like?"

"I am an incompetent student and didn't see clearly. He is just an ordinary person."

Chen Guanlou raised his eyebrows slightly, opened the envelope, and a thick stack of silver bills came out. Attached with a note, it read: Thank you very much!

Damn!

This is the silver bill sent by Zhang Daohe.

Zhang Daohe is so brave that he dared to run around the capital at a time when there was a lot of panic.

"My Lord, what's inside?"

"It's none of your business. I really didn't see clearly what the person who sent the letter looked like?"

Mu Qingshan shook his head. He really didn't see clearly. The other party looked too ordinary, so ordinary that he would forget it after seeing it.

Chen Guanlou waved his hand, "If the other party wants to hide, there is always a way." After all, the best thing for the religious bandits is to hide their identities and faces.

Zhang Daohe is a trustworthy guy. If you say there is a big reward, then it will come.

It seems that someone has been paying attention to the situation around him recently. As soon as Wang Gonggong left, the money was sent.

"Next time something similar happens, remember to call me in time."

"My Lord, you are taking a lunch break, how dare I disturb you."

"You are the one who talks the most nonsense." Chen Guanlou complained with disdain, "Go away if you have nothing to do."

"My Lord, the roof of the prison cell has been in disrepair for a long time. I am worried that the roof will not be able to withstand the heavy snow in winter. Do you want to report it and ask the Ministry of Works to send someone to repair it?"

"Why didn't you ask the craftsmen of the Ministry of Works to repair it at the beginning of the year?"

"There was not enough money, and the people of the Ministry of Works were unwilling to do it."

It's really... outrageous.

The people of the Ministry of Works are fed up with big projects one by one. They are disgusted with the work of repairing the Tianlao. If it weren't for the repeated urging of the Ministry of Justice, they would definitely drag it on. It is impossible to expect the people of the Ministry of Works to use the money for repairing the C-shaped prison to repair the A-shaped prison and the B-shaped prison together.

These guys who are obsessed with money are not good people.

He thought for a moment, "You should report this situation first and urge the Ministry of Justice to allocate funds. As long as the money is in place, we can just go outside to find craftsmen."

"Sir, it is against the rules to go outside to find craftsmen. If something goes wrong, we will bear all the responsibility. The prince of the Marquis's Mansion is in the Ministry of Works, so why bother to go far away? It is better to ask the prince. Favors should be used when they are needed. Don't lose the substance for the sake of face."
