120　　My sister's biggest dream is to let her son live a good life.

　　My sister's dream is my dream, and I agreed to it!

　　Zhao Xun was covered in blood, his consciousness was blurred, and it was obvious that he was not going to survive.

　　At this time, the younger brother who was supervising the execution continued: "Two knives pierced the lungs and cut off the path to the future life."

　　After hearing this, Zheng Chuan also saw that Zhao Xun could no longer hold on.

　　At this time, holding the knife, he sighed: "Brother-in-law, I will send you on your last journey."

　　The knife pierced Zhao Xun's heart directly. His heart was pierced. Zhao Xun's eyes suddenly widened as if he had a last burst of light.

　　Then, like a deflated ball, the whole person collapsed, and the knife came out from the back of his scapula!

　　Seeing this scene, everyone fell silent!

　　Zhao Xun fell in a pool of blood, his heart stopped beating, his breathing stopped, and his life was buried.

　　"Three stabs to the heart, the sins are cleared, life and death are left to fate!"

　　Everyone was silent at this time, all staring at Zhao Xun lying in a pool of blood.

　　The family rules of the fishing gang are so harsh that no one can escape them.

　　Zheng Chuan looked at Zhao Xun who was lying on the ground, patted his shoulder, and stood up silently.

　　The people around were very quiet, and everyone felt grief-stricken.

　　Why do we need to set up an incense hall and implement the criminal law of three cuts and six holes?

　　In addition to punishing evil, the most important thing is to warn future generations.

　　Let me show you the price you have to pay for making a mistake in the fishing gang.

　　It also makes all the younger brothers in the fishing gang realize that the strict rules of the gang do not mean that you can sit back and relax once you join the gang.

　　While enjoying your rights, you must also always bear obligations and risks.

　　The executioner stepped forward to look at the whites of Zhao Xun's eyes and check his pulse. Finally, he stood up and looked at Peng Shizhong and said, "Master, he's dead!"

　　Peng Shizhong said: "Well, the sins have been cleared, and the family can bury the body themselves."

　　Zheng Chuan waved his hand and sent his men to collect Zhao Xun's body.

　　Feng Xuan looked at Zheng Chuan and said, "Brother, you are really cruel. Can you be so cruel as to kill your own brother-in-law?"

　　Zheng Chuan said coldly: "Gang rules are ruthless. Anyone who breaks the gang rules will be punished accordingly."

　　Feng Xuan said: "Otherwise, brother, you can achieve great things. You are cruel enough, and you are not as good as me."

　　Seeing this, Zheng Chuan was silent for a moment and ignored him.

　　Feng Xuan didn't say anything either.

　　At this time, Peng Shizhong said to all the younger brothers of the fishing gang present: "The gang rules are as hard as iron and cannot be violated. Today's Zhao Xun is the best example. Please follow the gang rules and don't make mistakes!"

　　After hearing this, everyone fell silent.

　　At this moment, everyone understood what a fishing gang was.

　　This is not a game of house. It's not a place where you can just collect fish taxes and be done with it. Here, you have to abide by the gang rules. This is a group with rules, not a gang of hooligans.

　　Chen Jie was silent.

　　Although he had killed many people, such as Ma Liu, Yu Biao, and Yu Sanliu, all of whom were killed by himself, that kind of killing was not...

　　This is different from being punished according to gang rules.

　　Three cuts and six holes, that is a disregard for life, that feeling of being able to directly dominate the life and death of others, how to put it, a little scary, and a little mysterious.

　　Chen Jie felt that he still had a lot to learn.

　　When Chen Jie was thinking about what had just happened, he found someone patting his shoulder. Chen Jie turned around and saw Feng Xuan.

　　Feng Xuan said with a smile on his face: "Brother Jiusi."

　　"Manager Feng."

　　Feng Xuan said: "Why call me steward? From now on, we are all my adoptive father's sons. Just call me big brother!"

　　"Brother Feng!"

　　Chen Jie bowed his head and saluted. Feng Xuan said, "Jiu Si, go back and prepare. We will be back in the city in half an hour."

　　After hearing this, Chen Jie said, "Oh, I'm ready."

　　Feng Xuan nodded and said, "Are you bringing your family with you this time?"

　　Chen Jie said: "Well, my wife and sister will go with me."

　　Feng Xuan said: "Oh, that's perfect. I have prepared a carriage for you, my dear brother. It's just right for your family of three to ride in a carriage."

　　"carriage?"

　　Chen Jie was stunned. You know, they were in the south, where there were not as many horses as in the north. There were very few horses here, and only people from wealthy families could afford a carriage.

　　And if you want a good horse that can be ridden, it will be very expensive, which is something Chen Jie cannot afford with his current status.

　　Apart from anything else, a good horse's feed costs about thirty cents a day. Thirty cents is enough to feed a family of five for a day.

　　That's why horses are more valuable than humans.

　　Therefore, in Mianshui County, one can often see a sedan chair carried by two people or a small sedan chair, but rarely a horse-drawn carriage.

　　You know, it costs much less to hire two sedan bearers than to hire a horse.

　　Therefore, in the city, there are many more people riding in sedan chairs than riding on horses, and the truly wealthy ride horses or carriages.

　　Feng Xuan took Chen Jie outside and saw a blue-roofed carriage straight ahead.

　　This carriage doesn't look cheap at first glance. You have to know that carriages of that era were also divided into different grades.

　　For example, the lowest-grade horse-drawn carriage does not have a carriage shed, like the ones often used in rural areas to transport goods or manure.

　　Moreover, most of the carts are not pulled by horses, but by cows and donkeys.

　　Although this kind of carriage is simple, it is very good in that era. Anyone who can afford such a carriage can be considered a wealthy man.

　　The second type is a horse-drawn carriage with a simple shed. This type of carriage is usually used by small landowners.

　　The more high-end ones are the ones in front of you. The carport is wrapped in silk cloth and there are interior decorations inside. They are relatively luxurious. Only the wealthy families in the county can afford them.

　　Of course there are things that are even more expensive, but that is beyond Chen Jie's reach now.

　　What is in front of you is a high-end carriage with an interior decoration, and the carriage is also pulled by a horse. Although it is a very low-quality horse, it is still a horse, not a donkey, and it is a symbol of status.

　　At this time Feng Xuan said: "Four joys!"

　　Feng Xuan shouted, and a clever little brother from the fishing gang followed him.

　　"uncle."

　　Feng Xuan said: "This is the fifth child that the master wants to take in. He is called Master Wu."

　　"Fifth Master."

　　Si Xi called out very respectfully. It was the first time that Chen Jie was called "Master" and he was a little uncomfortable.

　　Feng Xuan said: "You will get used to it after listening to it for a while. We are the adopted sons of our adopted father. With a higher status, the name we are addressed to will naturally change. You should get used to it in advance."

　　Chen Jie said: "Yes, big brother."

　　Hearing this, Feng Xuan patted Chen Jie on the shoulder and said, "Excuse me, we are brothers. Let's be closer from now on."

　　As they were talking, Peng Shizhong came over and everyone saluted.

　　Peng Shizhong looked at Chen Jie and said, "Jiu Si, have you settled down at home?"

　　"It's settled."

　　"Well, that's good. Feng Xuan, you are responsible for taking care of Dian Jiusi."

　　"It's my godfather, I know."

　　Feng Xuan responded. At this time, Zheng Chuan followed Peng Shizhong away with an expressionless face, and stopped beside Chen Jie.

　　Chen Jie was stunned and Zheng Chuan glanced at him.

　　Without saying a word, he turned around and followed Peng Shizhong away.

　　However, this walking and stopping showed an attitude, which put a lot of pressure on Chen Jie.

　　Zheng Chuan left, and Feng Xuan said, "Don't worry about him. He is used to being domineering. There is no way his foster father will spoil him. But it doesn't matter. If he causes trouble for you in the future, go to my elder brother and he will help you."

　　Chen Jie clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, brother."

　　At this time Feng Xuan said: "Okay, Sixi, from now on, follow Jiusi and be responsible for driving the carriage."

　　After hearing this, Si Xi said, "Don't worry, sir. We will definitely send Fifth Master and his family to the city safely."

　　"Well, Jiu Si, Si Xi is smart. Let him follow you for the time being. You can tell him if you need anything. We can talk about other things when we get to the city."

　　After hearing this, Chen Jie said, "Thank you for your care, big brother."

　　"It should be."

　　After saying that, he waved his hand and said, "You guys go, I'll see you at the town entrance in half an hour."

　　"good."

　　Chen Jie nodded, and immediately followed Si Xi and said, "Fifth Master, please get in the car."

　　Chen Jie followed Si Xi to the front of the carriage. Si Xi reached out to help Chen Jie take down the small stool for getting on the carriage, then he opened the curtain of the sedan chair, took the long whip and waved it, saying, "Fifth Master, it's done, let's go."

　　drive!

　　The car started moving immediately.

　　Watching the carriage leaving, a man slowly came to Feng Xuan's side and said, "Sir, he's just a newcomer, is it really necessary to honor him like this? Even Si Xi has been sent over."

　　Feng Xuan laughed and said, "This Chen Jiusi is not an ordinary person. My godfather admires him very much, and he has great potential. More importantly, Zheng Chuan has a grudge against him. This is the young man we need most right now."

　　"People like this are best driven. If we win them over, they will be the best helpers to deal with Zheng Chuan in the future, so a carriage is nothing."

　　Feng Xuan had a smile on his face, but there was a dark light flashing in his eyes.
