Chapter 200: Chapter 193: Who Can’t Withstand This Test?
Zhu Hongcai was flanked by two attractively dressed, cool-looking young ladies from the Jiaofang Division and led the way at the front.
The three from Jiang Cheng followed behind.
Ding Guangming worried, “Cheng, Hong Cai got trapped in an instant, what do we do?”
Song Junsheng said, “What about sacrificing a pawn to save the chariot?”
Jiang Cheng shook his head, “No, the true art of acting is to be oneself. Let’s follow.”
Ding Guangming and Song Junsheng exchanged glances, unclear about Jiang Cheng’s intentions.
Logically, they really shouldn’t have brought Zhu Hongcai to the Jiaofang Division.
With Zhu Hongcai’s character, wouldn’t he be easily deceived by the young ladies of the Jiaofang Division?
But Jiang Cheng still brought Zhu Hongcai along.
Could it be that Jiang Cheng had so sort of miraculous strategy?
Now they had no choice but to trust Jiang Cheng.
As Jiang Cheng had predicted, the young ladies from the Jiaofang Division, seeing it was Zhu Hongcai’s first visit, directly invited him into one of the Division’s expensive private rooms.
They not only ordered a pricey fruit platter but also served extravagantly presented and surely expensive food and drinks.
The two young ladies sat beside Zhu Hongcai, one on each side, serving him dishes on the left and pouring wine on the right, pampering him to the point of floating on cloud nine, in complete bliss.
The three from Jiang Cheng sat politely on the other side of the wine table, watching Zhu Hongcai sink deeper into an irresistible enchantnt.
Under Ding Guangming and Song Junsheng’s watchful eyes, Jiang Cheng silently took out the mory Sphere and secretly started recording the scene inside the private room as evidence.
“You three little brothers, why just sit there without eating? Could it be you want to be fed?”
Zhu Hongcai, tipsy but not drunk, said, “Brothers, just call for soone, tonight’s bill is on .”
“Co on, Master Zhu, have another drink.”
“Sister, you sll so nice.”
“If you order two more sets of Capital Dew, we sisters can take you upstairs for so fun.”
“Then let’s have two more sets!”
Seeing Zhu Hongcai so generous, the Jiaofang Division girls were overjoyed. To them, Zhu Hongcai was a rare fat sheep!
He was the kind that was quite proper, spending a fortune without even getting frisky—what a unique pure-hearted young man!
“Ahem,” Jiang Cheng saw that the timing was about right, and finally stood up.
“Two sisters, to be honest, the four of us ca to the Jiaofang Division to find soone. Have either of you heard of Miss Lu Ran?”
“Never heard of her.”
“ neither.”
Jiang Cheng continued, “Then, do you know where the Cultivation Technique of the Hehuan Sect originates?”
“Hehuan Sect’s Cultivation Technique? We at the Jiaofang Division don’t have such things.”
“Exactly, don’t go falsely accusing good people.”
“Since the sisters don’t wish to have a proper conversation, I have no choice but to offend you two.” Jiang Cheng took out the mory Sphere, “Everything that just happened has been fully recorded in this mory Sphere.”
The purple-clad woman on Zhu Hongcai’s left put her hands on her hips, “Ha, that’s funny. Our Jiaofang Division has always conducted business with this level of service; even if you take that mory Sphere to the Emperor, we are not afraid.”
Jiang Cheng coughed slightly, “By rights it should be so, but this Master Zhu Hongcai, he is actually underage.”
The two Jiaofang Division ladies: ?
Ding Guangming and Song Junsheng: ?
Even Ding Guangming and Song Junsheng hadn’t expected that Zhu Hongcai, who looked the oldest in their dormitory, was actually the youngest.
Zhu Hongcai objected, “Jiang Cheng, you’re talking nonsense! I’m eighteen!”
The Jiaofang Division ladies exhaled in relief.
Jiang Cheng explained, “That’s your nominal age. You’re actually seventeen this year, indeed underage.”
Zhu Hongcai asked, “Oh, really? What happens when you’re underage?”
“According to the laws of Liang Kingdom, practitioners of the customs trade who engage in improper relations with minors shall be sentenced to no less than three years and no more than ten years of fixed-term imprisonnt.”
“We haven’t even reached that point yet! You won’t blackmail us with the recording!” the woman in purple protested steadfastly.
Jiang Cheng continued to explain, “Caterers who encourage minors to drink or sell them alcohol products shall be sentenced to no less than one year and no more than ten years of fixed-term imprisonnt, depending on the quantity and alcohol content.”
Faced with the adverse situation, the woman in purple revealed desperately, “The alcohol we gave him was counterfeit! The law doesn’t apply to us!”
Jiang Cheng indifferently said, “Counterfeit alcohol is still alcohol, and moreover, its alcohol content is higher, which leads to harsher sentencing. Additionally, it involves the cri of comrcial fraud.”
Although ordinary people wouldn’t sue for just a small drink, if Jiang Cheng specialized in setting up such traps, they really might end up in jail because of him.
Once in jail, spending three to five years there, their lives would pretty much be over.
The woman in purple signaled to the woman in green sitting on the other side of Zhu Hongcai, and the two won instantly agreed to suddenly burst from their seats and try to snatch the mory Sphere from Jiang Cheng’s hand.
As long as they got the mory Sphere, Jiang Cheng would have no evidence to sue them!
At this critical juncture, Jiang Cheng remained calm, his composure unwavering like Mount Tai.
“Stop!”
At Jiang Cheng’s command, the two won of the Jiaofang Division were instantly immobilized by a spell, frozen in place, unable to move.
Where did that spell co from!? It seed to co from behind!
Could it be…
“Heh, heh, heh…”
Zhu Hongcai let out a villainous laugh.
He stood up and walked over to the two immobilized won of the Jiaofang Division.
“Don’t underestimate ! Even I, Zhu Hongcai, have things I would risk my life to protect!”
Zhu Hongcai slamd the table in anger and said, “So you’re testing with just your looks? Who can’t withstand such a test!?”
Jiang Cheng patted Ding Guangming and Song Junsheng on the shoulders and said, “Get to work. Your brother Hong Cai is finished showing off.”
Ding Guangming and Song Junsheng imdiately understood and each produced a second-level Binding Immortal Rope to tightly bind the two won of the Jiaofang Division.
Jiang Cheng took out a bottle of makeup remover and set it on the table, saying, “I don’t an to threaten you, but if you’re not willing to tell the truth, I think your future business might suffer.”
Facing the makeup remover, the two won of the Jiaofang Division finally caved.
“Kind sir, we’ll tell, we’ll tell you anything. Please, just don’t use the makeup remover!”
Thanks to information from the two won of the Jiaofang Division, Jiang Cheng and his group smoothly located Lu Ran, the younger sister of the Lu family.
Lu Ran’s alias in the Jiaofang Division was “Liuran,” and she bore a seventy percent resemblance to her sister. She was currently a top courtesan of the Jiaofang Division, equivalent to a first-tier female perforr right beneath the top attractions.
Perhaps because she was nearly thirty, Lu Ran led a rather leisurely life and was even willing to chat a bit more with Jiang Cheng and his company.
After all, it had cost Zhu Hongcai quite a sum to et her.
“The Cultivation Technique from the Hehuan Sect was indeed given to her by . She had just entered the Gao Residence then and her position was not stable; she wanted Mr. Gao to pay more attention to her,” Lu Ran admitted.
Jiang Cheng inquired, “Then where did you get this Cultivation Technique from?”
“It was sold to by a manager in the Jiaofang Division called ‘Madam Tan.’ However…”
“However what?”
“Madam Tan disappeared last month. Suddenly, just gone, no idea where she went.”
“Can you still contact the Hehuan Sect?”
Lu Ran shook her head and said, “That was probably twenty years ago when I had just co to the Jiaofang Division. They invited to join the sect, but I refused. I just bought the Cultivation Technique with money, and then I never contacted them again. Now that I am older and no longer as attractive, the Hehuan Sect wouldn’t be interested in . They only like young girls, especially beautiful ones with exceptional talents as female cultivators.”
Jiang Cheng thought of Lin Yao.
According to the original storyline of the ga, Lin Yao was discovered by the Hehuan Sect after entering the Taixu Sect, taken in, and fully grood to beco a notorious enchantress of the Demonic Tao.
“The Hehuan Sect likes beautiful ones?” Jiang Cheng confird.
Lu Ran nodded affirmatively, “Yes, the more beautiful the female cultivator, the greater their attraction to the sect.”
