Gao Pragmatic has always been working hard to make money, but his efforts to make money are really not just for personal enjoyment, if it is personal enjoyment, with his current wealth and income, even if the wine pool meat forest plays to death, he can't spend it all. He just knows the magic of money, and knows a lot of things he wants to do, and it's better to use silver than a knife.

For example, buying internal response is one of them.

Gao Pragmatic now has a lot of "allies", most of these allies are tied up by interests, and few can really talk about the kind that is like-minded with Gao Pragmatic, after all, no one knows what Gao Pragmatic's "ambition" is, even if it is like the little grandfather Zhu Yingzhen, who is so close to Gao Pragmatic that he almost wears a pair of pants, in the final analysis, it is because of silver.

Moreover, not everyone is qualified enough for Gao Pragmatic to regard them as allies, and there are many people who help Gao Pragmatic do things by bribery.

For example, in Feng Bao's foreign mansion, in addition to Xu Jue, a hardcore sworn friend, who is not easy to handle, the second steward Zhao Dalun received a lot of benefits from Gao Shi, not only directly taking money, but also other hidden benefits - for example, Zhao Dalun's nephew got the three-year independent supply right of honeycomb coal in about one-third of the southern city of Beijing, which is one of them.

So Zhao Dalun actually became a person of Gao Guanzheng almost a year ago, that is, not long after Gao Shishi returned to Beijing after the exam last year.

However, Gao Guanzheng is benevolent, although he has given many benefits, there are not many things to do for Zhao Dalun to help, and the most important thing is to record.

Whoever has seen Feng Bao or Xu Jue, what industries Feng Bao has in his family, what precious calligraphy and paintings, literary toys and so on, must be recorded and handed over to highly pragmatic people.

In addition, it is some small things that seem meaningless, and Zhao Dalun doesn't care much about it.

As for whether Gao Pragmatic thought about bringing down his master, Zhao Dalun actually didn't have much psychological burden, because Gao Pragmatic hinted at him that he was expanding the courtyard outside the Jingshi City, and he would definitely lack a manager in charge at that time, and if he had the opportunity, he hoped he could come to help.

Although Zhao Dalun is the second manager of Feng Bao's foreign mansion, because of Xu Jue, he feels that he will not be able to be the head of his life, and few of the officials and nobles in the palace can be beautiful for a lifetime.

What's more, the Gao family is not an ordinary family of eunuchs, it is the family of the first assistant! And Gao Pragmatic himself is even more wealthy, and it is definitely safer to follow him as a steward than to be a steward with Master Feng.

The only question is when the "opportunity" that Gao Guanzheng said will appear.

And today, Zhao Dalun knew that the opportunity should have come, because Gao Mo, the head of the pragmatic family, gave him a task that he had never done before - to hide the two things separately as quickly as possible.

The first thing looks like an account book, but it is not a very professional kind of account book, but it looks like a person who does not know how to do accounts to record in essays, but the essays are essays, but this account book is written very seriously.

Of course, this is not the basis for Zhao Dalun's judgment that "there is a chance today", the real basis is what is written in the account book, and the handwriting that writes this account book.

What is written in this account book are all "gifts" received by Feng Bao.

For a great eunuch like Feng Bao, of course, it is common to receive gifts, and the list of gifts that Zhao Dalun passed to the pragmatic Feng Bao is far more comprehensive than what is recorded in this account book. But the difference in this account book is that some people are listed separately - the person in the first place is Zhang Juzheng, who is the auxiliary minister of the court!

Zhang Juzheng's column is lowered, and it is written: seven famous pianos, nine night pearls, five pearl curtains, 30,000 taels of gold, 100,000 taels of silver, and other treasures are countless. [No Wind Note: Historical Facts.] ]

Zhao Dalun flipped through it casually and finally discovered the mystery - at least seventy percent of all these recorded people are related to Zhang Juzheng, and the remaining thirty percent are mostly small fish and shrimp, at least Zhao Dalun doesn't know who their backstage is.

There is an even more amazing thing: the handwriting of this booklet looks completely handwritten by Master Feng!

Zhao Dalun muttered to himself: "It seems that it is not only Master Feng who is the leader of Gaoguan who has been defeated, but this Elder Zhang Ge is afraid that he will also be implicated." ”

picked up another thing and looked at it, but it was a notebook, Zhao Dalun opened it and looked at it, his eyes lit up: This is Xu Jue's diary?

He hurriedly took a closer look, and soon determined that this was really Xu Jue's diary, and the records in it were even accurate to going out at a certain time on a certain day, doing something in a certain place, and returning to Feng's mansion at a certain time. And this diary, judging from the handwriting, is undoubtedly "Xu Jue's own handwriting".

Zhao Dalun looked at it with cold hairs standing on end, is the Gao family's family so powerful? This is simply something that can only be done by monitoring Xu Jue for twelve hours without stopping!

As for the things written in it, there are even more variety, but Zhao Dalun flipped through it casually and found a few very fatal places.

For example, in the record, Xu Jue accompanied Feng Bao to visit Zhang's scholar's mansion at night, and during the meeting, Feng Bao said: "Gao Gong refuses to recommend our family, sooner or later, our family will make him look good!" ”

And Zhang Juzheng's answer is even more impressive: "The high arch is leaning on, nothing more than the holy family, the emperor is seriously ill today, and there are no days to live, then Feng Gong has the trust of the concubine, how different is the holy family of the high arch today?" It's just killing or not, but Feng Gong just thought about it. ”

And Feng Bao's answer was even more arrogant: "It's just a concubine, Feng said east, she will not go west." When the time comes, Gao Gong will be charged with a crime, and it will be difficult for him to recover, but how to arrange this crime, Feng has not thought about it, Taiyue can have a plan? ”

Zhang Juzheng's answer, even if it appeared in the diary as words, seemed gloomy: "This matter is easy! The emperor has collapsed, and the orphans and widows are in the court, and the most taboo thing is the disloyalty of the ministers. Gao Gong won the trust of the emperor, and he acted upright, it was better to pollute him to have the intention of abolishing the monarch and establishing a new one, only the two palaces and the little emperor believed it, even if Gao Gong did not die, he had to peel off his skin! ”

Zhao Dalun saw a chill on his back, he didn't dare to look down anymore, he stood up and trembled for a while, he was a little afraid, and even a little regretful, I don't know if I still have to hide these two things separately according to the original plan.

But at this moment, there was a knock on the door, and a voice outside said, "Steward Zhao, the little one is here to exchange for tea." ”

Zhao Dalun hurriedly hid the two booklets in his chest, forced himself to calm down, and sat down before saying, "Come in." ”

The slave came in to change the freshly brewed tea for Zhao Dalun, suddenly smiled strangely at him, and said softly: "Manager Zhao, Dongchang and Jinyiwei have begun to assemble, you can't delay it any longer, otherwise...... I'm afraid that when the time comes, you won't even be able to get rid of it. ”

Zhao Dalun was so shocked that he almost jumped!
