Sang Zibo's gaze never left Jia Yun, and at this moment, seeing him squatting on the ground, his body trembling slightly, his face was pale, and he couldn't help but say sarcastically: "Jia Gongzi, you have already experienced Tianma, how is it, are you still satisfied? According to the contract, did you pay me 500,000 taels on the spot?"

He was really happy at the moment!

Thinking that the whole family was forced by Jia Yun to stop living before, and almost broke the family, he really hated the Cao family who was behind the scenes!

To tell the truth, in order to accumulate wealth over the years, although the Cao family has not changed to more despicable and filthy methods in order to accumulate wealth at the beginning, he has not been unaware or unvigilant.

It's just that most of the Cao family's targets are small and medium-sized merchants with no foundation, and they don't dare to go too far with some background businesses, and most of them adopt a joint way to collect money, and those merchants don't dare to offend them in front of the prince, so they have to let some benefits, suffer some losses, and make a fortune to go to people's safety.

Over the years he has been in Jiaozhou, although he has also made some money, and it is also in line with the small and medium-sized merchants targeted by the Cao family, but the Sang family has not been divided after all, and the entire Sang family still has some background in the south, and the reputation is also good.

Although there is no backstage support, his brother-in-law Tong Zhuoxin and his father Tong Shiqun are also in the officialdom, although the fourth or fifth rank officials are not big, but they also have some connections, he thought that the Cao family would not be so bold and fancy the wealth of the Sang family.

I didn't expect that I still thought too simply, and the official positions of my brother-in-law and his father were not seen in their eyes at all.

What made him resentful was that if the Cao family only fancied the interests of his small family, he would not be so angry, and he would give it to him as a big deal, he would have his hands and feet, and he could start all over again.

But they actually want the wealth of the entire Sang family, and their appetite is boundless!

Who gave them so much power and courage? Do whatever they want, without any scruples? Isn't it dependent on the crown prince and empress of the dynasty? Or is it the current emperor, if the emperor does not connive, will the Cao family dare to do this?

He didn't believe that the emperor didn't know about the affairs of the Cao family, and when he heard that the royal secret guard Feilongwei was pervasive, there was nothing they didn't know, how could the affairs of the Cao family be hidden from their ears and eyes?

Since I know that I still connived at the Cao family's blatant accumulation of wealth, there can only be one explanation, that is, the Cao family did this, and the emperor acquiesced!

Thinking that the emperor sitting in a high position actually connived at the imperial family and nobles to be so careless of human life and disregard for the law, and was indifferent and sat idly by, Sang Zibo suddenly lost confidence in this court, and was disheartened for a while.

Is this world really bad? I am also a small businessman, what confidence do I have to go against these nobles? This disaster was given by Mei Yixuan in time to save his family property and family, but what about next time? What about next time? The Sang family will not be so lucky to meet good people every time, where do they get the capital to fight with these people?

Since there is no way to retreat left and right, and since he can't escape the royal calculations in the future, even if the Sang family is poor and living in poverty, or the family is ruined, he has to take this breath first!

Therefore, he no longer has any scruples about Jia Yun, the lackey of the Cao family, anyway, it is a one-shot deal, and he will not have anything to do with him in the future.

He knew that Jia Yun must have been confident a long time ago, thinking that he was desperate and would kneel down and beg for mercy, so he fell into the well again and insulted him to the extreme.

He probably never dreamed that he could take out a thousand catties of gastrodia, right?

Seeing Jia Yun's face just now go from stunned and disbelieving to panic and fear in a short period of time, it was really exciting, and his heart was extremely relieved!

Although Jia Yun is young, after all, he has been rolling in the business sea for many years, although he is very anxious and scared in his heart, but he quickly calmed down, he endured the slight tremor of his body, slowly stood up, and showed a smile that was more ugly than crying: "Hehe······ Mulberry ······ Mr. Sang, don't be in a hurry, I've already sent my men to get the money, and I'll be back in a while. ”

In the end, Jia Yun himself believed the lie, looked much calmer, and glanced around.

At this glance, he found that the people around him were looking at him at this time, especially the officials of the government, with a trace of sympathy and schadenfreude on their faces, after all, everyone knew the routines of the Cao family, and knew that Jia Yun must not have the 500,000 taels of silver in his hand.

In front of everyone's eyes, if he can't come up with the money, a thousand catties of Tianma Sang Zibo will definitely not be handed over to him, and the deposit of 10,000 taels he paid before will be in vain, and more importantly, there will be no more than 5 million taels.

Even if the Cao family is strong, even if the Cao family can deny it, but so many people can't be too obvious, right?

He couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Although the Cao family is prominent on the surface and its power is monstrous, the hearts of the people are not something that can be bought by the powerful, these people are usually polite to him, but it really makes the Cao family ugly and embarrassed, and they are still happy to see it.

This is the human heart!

Just when Jia Yun was helpless and was about to give up the sale of Tianma, the young man sent out by Chen Yonggui finally rushed back and quietly handed him a money bag.

Chen Yonggui hurriedly opened it, and when he saw that there were ten silver tickets of 50,000 taels inside, the expression on his face immediately relaxed.

It turned out that Cao Ruinan was not completely unprepared.

Over the years, he has been accustomed to keeping a backup hand in everything, even if the matter is already in place, he will prepare for the worst, which is why Cao Peiyao is relieved to let him be in charge.

Just when he learned the news of the loss of 1,000 catties of gastrodia, he had already prepared all the money for the purchase of gastrodia in case of emergency.

If the Sang family has a way to get a thousand catties of gastrodia on time within three days, he will pay for the goods as agreed, after all, the Sang family's gastrodia is of high quality, and he will make a lot of money when he gets it to Kyoto.

Not this time, just next time, the Sang family's property has become his pocket anyway, it's just a matter of time.

Today is the deadline for the delivery of the Sang family, and early in the morning, he took his long-term entourage Cao Yong and Cao Hai from the other courtyard to the small courtyard behind the inn, waiting for news from the inn.

Therefore, when the young man in the inn and one of the guards of the Cao family, Ah San, came over to explain the situation, Cao Ruinan was not angry, and when a thousand catties of gastrodia were lost, he had already expected this situation.

It's just that what surprised him was that Sang Zibo knew whom, not only could he let the prefect Gao Tianfeng and his party support the scene for him and act as a middleman for him, but he was also able to transport a thousand catties of gastrodia back unknowingly in the heavy siege of the Wu family's courtyard.
