Tang: In prison at the beginning, asked to leave by Li Er

The Great Tang.

In the dungeon of Chang 'an County.

Mu Yun sat on a long wooden bench. The sour smell of the prison fiercely stimulated his nose. Coupled with the dim light, it made him feel uncomfortable.

Although his clothes were not made of silk, they were still very exquisite. There were no patches, which meant that he did not lack food or clothing.

I wonder what crime he committed to be locked up in prison?

"Son! Did they torture you?"

A slightly plump middle-aged man walked in. It was Mu Yun's father, Mu Dingshan. His face was filled with worry as he sized up his son and asked with concern.

"Father, I'm fine."

Mu Yun shook his head, stood up, and walked over." No one came to cause trouble at home, right?"

"No, I haven't."

Hearing this, Mu Yun was relieved. He asked again without any rhyme or reason,"Has the news been released?" 

" I've let you out…Can I really save you like this?"

Mu Yun opened his mouth and was about to say something when he saw a jailer coming over to patrol. He immediately shut his mouth.

"Eat well. Father will come to see you tomorrow." Mu Dingshan reminded him, picked up the food box, and left the dungeon.

The jailer didn't go anywhere else. He opened the door and entered the cell." Mu, have you thought it through? Hand over the formula and get a hundred strings of money for free. It's good for both of us."

"If this item is only worth a hundred strings, why are you talking here?"

"So you don't agree?"

The jailer asked word by word, but before he could give an answer, he kicked the table over and the food on the table spilled all over the ground." I'll let you f * cking eat!"

Mu Yun suddenly raised his head and looked at him coldly.

"You still dare to glare at me!"

The jailer kicked again. This time, his target was Mu Yun. Mu Yun dodged it, but he still wanted to kick a second time. Mu Yun suddenly opened his mouth and said," My father is here to deliver food. You guys are collecting money, right?"

He did not believe that these people were so kind as to let Mu Dingshan in without any benefits.

"If you don't want to earn this money, just do it. At most, I won't eat it. When I starve to death, no one in the world will know the formula, and you won't be able to answer! Or you can leave now and I'll pretend that nothing happened. You can still earn money."

"Why do you have to make things difficult for us? Hand over the formula and we can leave this place. We can also report our work."

The jailer's tone softened and he advised kindly. Seeing that Mu Yun was ignoring him, he did not waste any more words with him. He turned around and locked the door before leaving.

After the two of them left, Mu Yun squatted on the ground and picked up some clean food to continue eating.

Only after they had eaten their fill could they continue to fight with them.

He knew that he had no background. He was worried that such a day would come, so he chose the small business of preserved eggs. He didn't even dare to touch the more profitable salt and wine.

In the end…

He was still being targeted!

Moreover, they had used the power of the government to arrest him openly. For the sake of the century egg recipe, they had used all sorts of methods to threaten and bribe him.

It wasn't that he couldn't hand over the formula. At most, he would stop doing business in the future.

However, Mu Yun was not willing to be so tactful after his rebirth!

He was afraid that he would take a step back and compromise. In the end, he would become experienced and become someone he hated.

In his previous life, he was an ordinary person who had to support his parents and family. He could only rely on himself to work hard, endure and accommodate, and his edges and corners were smoothed out by life.

But this life was different!

He had more than a thousand years of knowledge, and his horizons were higher than anyone else's. In the Great Tang, he was just a bug. There was no such thing as success or failure.

Previously, it was because he had seen too many schemes in his previous life and was tired!

He had toiled for half his life, but came here with nothing.

Therefore, in this life, he knew the darkness of officialdom and was unwilling to get involved in that muddy water.

He didn't expect to be rich and noble. He just wanted to be rich and live a peaceful life in such a peaceful and prosperous world without leaving any traces.

In any case, those worldly possessions could not be brought with them when they were born or taken away when they died. It was better to enjoy life.

However, the cold reality woke him up.

He still maintained the mindset of the later generations. The Great Tang was ultimately a feudal society, and he had taken it for granted.

If one wanted to survive in this era, they would have no power or influence. They could only be manipulated and humiliated by others.

……

He was a yamen of Chang 'an County.

The Chang 'an County Magistrate nodded and bowed." Don't worry, Young Master Zheng," he said to a young man." I will make him hand over the item!"

"Haha, this matter is all up to Ma Ming Fu! After the matter is done, I will definitely put in a good word for you at uncle's place." The young man was dressed in silk and satin, and he had a noble aura. It was obvious that he was from an extraordinary background.

"Then this humble official will thank Young Master Zheng in advance."

Ma Feng thanked him profusely as he sent the young man out of the county office.

Ma Feng sighed when the horse carriage was far away. The Chang 'an County Magistrate looked glamorous on the surface. There were only seven Grade Five County Magistrate in the world, but the emperor had powerful officials everywhere. If he was not careful, he would offend people. It was not easy to be the magistrate!

He had no family background and no backing. He had been able to sit in this position for many years because he was careful, afraid that he would encounter an existence he could not afford to offend.

Although this young man did not have an official position, the surname "Zheng" was quite valuable. It was one of the five most noble surnames in the world.

The young man's uncle was a councilor of the Ministry of Personnel. Although his rank was not as high as a county magistrate, he was the most powerful yamen in the six ministries. He controlled the political achievements of the officials in the world.

"Did that kid give you an explanation?"

Turning around, Ma Feng's expression had already changed and he asked with a gloomy face.

This time, before he made his move, he had thoroughly investigated the brat in the dungeon. Three generations of his ancestors had always lived in Stone Spring Village. However, their family had a few acres of barren land. They had only made a fortune last year and did not have any powerful background.

There was nothing to hesitate about.

Of course, he was on the Zheng Corporation's side. This was a rare opportunity for promotion.

"Still not willing to say anything." the aide replied carefully. " What's going on?" Ma Feng's gaze turned cold." It seems that if we don't get serious, he really won't know what's good for him!"

……

In a restaurant in Xi City.

An old man squatted by the door, waiting for the shopkeeper to count the money while chatting.

"Shopkeeper, your kind of business that relies on the heavens is really enviable. What the hell, last year's drought, and this year's spring plowing! You really don't want me to live."

He was a villager from Stone Spring Village.

He had been doing business in the city for almost half a year, so there were always one or two acquaintances he could chat with.

"Isn't that so…Speaking of which, Old Geng, do you still have the time to do business at this time? The fields at home were no longer planted? Can these two money feed an entire family?" The shopkeeper asked.

" I've already planted it," Old Geng chuckled." Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to come out without worry."

" Are you kidding me? This year's land is already difficult to cultivate. It's only been a while since spring started. Is your village the only special one?" The shopkeeper obviously didn't believe him.

" Our village has Young Master's Divine Plow. Not only does it work fast and save energy, but it also cultivates deeply."

The shopkeeper saw that he was not joking, so he became serious. His face became extremely serious." Are you serious?"

If it wasn't for his honest image, the shopkeeper would never believe it!

"Why would I lie to you? Think about it, if the land hadn't been plowed, would I be able to run around without worry? That's a family's life. How can you joke about it…"

Before Old Geng could finish his words, several customers in the restaurant couldn't sit still.

She ran over like a madman and grabbed his clothes." Is this true? Is there really such a divine plow?" she asked. Where can I buy it? Give me a few."

"If there really is such a plow, I want to buy it too!"

There was more than one person behind him, and they were all looking at him like hungry wolves.
