Regarding Wen Guanliang's situation, Zhao Junchen was originally a little subconsciously pitiful, but after hearing the numbers Wen Guanliang said, there was only disdain left for Wen Guanliang's senses. (The fastest update speed is on the Aishang Novel Network biquge.info)

asked for money like this, and finally ended up in such a situation, he can only say that he deserves it.

"One million taels ......" Zhao Junchen smiled lightly, but his gaze at Wen Guanliang was quite cold: "Wen Ge is very generous. ”

Zhao Junchen was talking the opposite, Wen Guanliang could naturally hear it, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and the painful look on his face became more and more obvious, and said: "How about adding another 500,000 taels to the old decay, 1.5 million taels?" ”

Zhao Junchen didn't speak, just looked at Wen Guanliang in front of him, his brows furrowed slightly.

Seeing Zhao Junchen like this, Wen Guanliang gritted his teeth and said, "How about two million taels?" ”

Zhao Junchen's brows furrowed tighter, and a trace of impatience flashed on his face.

"Two ,500,000 taels ......"

This time, Wen Guanliang's words were just halfway through when he was interrupted by Zhao Junchen.

"Elder Wen Ge, you don't seem to have seen your current situation clearly." Zhao Junchen's voice was flat, but with a little coldness: "It's not that the lower officials want your silver now, but your majesty today!" This money is not for other purposes, but to buy the lives of your whole family, young and old! Is life important? Or is silver important? What is the nature of His Majesty's means today, Wen Ge Lao, you are an old minister, you should know better than the lower officials, think about it yourself, can you let Your Majesty let you go with such a little silver? ”

What Zhao Junchen said, Wen Guanliang naturally understood, but he was too greedy for money, so that he was blinded by his mind, and now Zhao Junchen's words finally dispelled all his luck, and his face was disgraced for a while.

Under Zhao Junchen's gaze, Wen Guanliang was silent for a long time before finally speaking again.

"Five million taels!"

When he said this number, Wen Guanliang clenched his teeth tightly, and his voice was sharp and hoarse.

Doubling the number in one breath seems to be a big deal, but Zhao Junchen is still not satisfied.

"There is no impermeable wall in this world, how much wealth do you have in Wen Ge Lao, since Xia Guan can roughly estimate it, then Your Majesty must know in your heart, Wen Ge Lao, these five million taels of silver are not too little, but do you really think that this silver can make Your Majesty let you go?" Zhao Junchen's voice was soft, but with an unquestionable taste: "Xia Guan doesn't want to waste any more time, if Wen Ge Lao you are still challenging Xia Guan's patience and kindness because of stinginess with money, then there is no point in continuing this conversation, I will find other ways to save Zuo Lanshan and Zhan Shanchang, although things will be more troublesome, but it is not unsolvable, it's just that Wen Ge Lao, you have to think about it clearly, if this situation continues, the end of the family is inevitable, and at that time, Not only is the silver gone, the life is gone, and the reputation is gone, but it will also harm the descendants of your Wen family! ”

Speaking of the back, Zhao Junchen's tone was already extremely heavy.

Wen Guanliang looked at Zhao Junchen for a long time, gasped a little heavier, and then spoke again: "Seven million taels!" ”

Zhao Junchen nodded, stood up suddenly, and said to Wen Guanliang: "Elder Wen Ge, the lower officials will leave first, wait a while, Shen and Huang will come, and please apologize to the two of them on my behalf, just say that the lower officials will have another banquet for the two of them another day, and personally ask them for their guilt." ”

When the words fell, Zhao Junchen had already turned around and walked towards the door.

"Wait." Seeing Zhao Junchen like this, Wen Guanliang couldn't help but be surprised, and hurriedly got up and said, "How much do you need?" You name a number! ”

"Nine million taels!" Zhao Junchen stopped, turned to look at Wen Guanliang, and said in a calm voice: "Nine million taels is just the bottom line, if you want to be foolproof, you need at least nine and a half million taels!" ”

Zhao Junchen said calmly, but this kind of number was obviously too much beyond Wen Guanliang's psychological bottom line, and he subconsciously exclaimed: "This is impossible!" ”

"yes, it's really impossible for you." A trace of contempt flashed in Zhao Junchen's eyes: "The lower officials have already seen this point, so the lower officials will leave, because there is nothing to talk about between the elder and the lower officials." ”

After a pause, Zhao Junchen continued with a sneer: "However, Wen Ge Lao, you are a senior after all, out of good intentions, Xia Guan said a sincere word, and then Wen Ge Lao, you should surrender to Your Majesty, and truthfully confess your guilt over the years, if you can avoid the serious, your Majesty will be able to leave some blood for the Wen family for the sake of your old minister." ”

Zhao Junchen's words finally shattered Wen Guanliang's psychological defense.

I saw Wen Guanliang sitting on the chair and laughing miserably: "Nine million taels, at least nine million taels...... After a lifetime of business, I finally got tens of millions of family fortunes, but I didn't expect it to be a moon in the fog, just for others to keep it. ”

"It's your embezzlement!" Zhao Junchen corrected again. But seeing Wen Guanliang's appearance, he subconsciously sighed lightly: "Yes, tens of millions of family wealth, just keeping it for others, it is really cruel, but if you don't even have such an awareness, why should you be a corrupt official in the first place?" Money is moving, and the emperor is not exempt from vulgarity, Elder Wen Ge, do you really think that Your Majesty has tolerated your corruption and bribery over the years, just for the sake of the overall situation? In the eyes of the emperor, there is no essential difference between raising pigs and raising corrupt officials, and it is inevitable that you will be slaughtered when you are fat. ”

Hearing Zhao Junchen say this, Wen Guanliang raised his head blankly, looked at Zhao Junchen in front of him, and asked slowly, "Could it be that you have already had such an awareness?" ”

Zhao Junchen nodded and said lightly: "From the day I found out that I was a corrupt official, I had such an awareness. ”

Wen Guanliang smiled miserably and said, "No wonder I will be defeated in your hands." ”

After another period of silence, Wen Guanliang spoke again: "Nine million taels, I don't have so much cash, only about eight million three hundred thousand taels. ”

"Then sell your property." Zhao Junchen said categorically: "The real estate, real estate, pawnshop, silver shop, all the properties in Beizhili, treasured at home, all sold, anyway, you have to return to your hometown, these industries are difficult to manage if you stay in Beizhili, and all the cash you get will be handed over to Your Majesty, the more the better, and the industries you have arranged in your hometown are enough for you to support your old age." ”

Man is a sword, I am a fish. Hearing Zhao Junchen say this, Wen Guanliang's expression was numb, and he finally gave up all useless struggles and resistance, just nodded silently, and had no words to refute.

Seeing that this matter was finally settled, Zhao Junchen didn't care, turned back to sit in his original position, and continued to play with the wine glass in his hand.

The two sat silently opposite each other like this, the atmosphere was weird and awkward, but Wen Guanliang was numb, Zhao Junchen was leisurely, and neither of them felt that there was anything wrong.

……… After another stick of incense, hurried footsteps sounded outside the door, breaking the silence in the private room.

Then, Xu Qingyan's voice sounded outside the private room.

"My lord, Shen and Huang are here."

Zhao Junchen nodded at Wen Guanliang, and then walked towards the door first.

Opening the door of the private room, Zhao Junchen asked Xu Qingyan, "The two of them came together?" ”

Xu Qingyan nodded and said, "They came together." ”

Zhao Junchen nodded and chuckled, "I see." ”

Shen Changmao and Huang Yourong have been fighting against each other in order to transfer the salt envoys' forces these days, but seeing Zhao Junchen involved, they have united together in the shortest possible time.

At this time, the two of them came together, which was also a statement of position.

Just as Zhao Junchen was thinking in secret, Huang Yourong and Shen Changmao were already hugging and shouting down, walking down the stairs and towards Zhao Junchen.

In a way, Huang Yourong and Shen Changmao walked together, and under the contrast in style, they were quite happy.

Huang Yourong has a gentle expression, an elegant face, white skin, a rich body, and a trace of kindness on his face at any time, which makes people feel cordial when they see it, but Zhao Junchen knows that such an expression is just a cover for Huang Yourong.

On the other hand, Shen Changmao has an ancient appearance, a strict expression, cold eyes, and a slender figure, which makes people feel afraid when they see it. The most prevalent in officialdom is conspiracy, and the least feared is trickery, most of them are used to it, but Shen Changmao's strong and resolute "as long as you provoke me, I will fight back with all my might" makes people dare not make enemies against him.

Beside Zhao Junchen, Wen Guanliang saw Shen and Huang and the others, and subconsciously snorted, the reason why he fell into such a situation is that of course it was because he was defeated by Zhao Junchen, but Shen Changmao and Huang Yourong fell into the well, chased and fought hard, and it was even more indispensable, thinking of the silver he was going to lose next, Wen Guanliang hated Shen and Huang more and more, but the shape was stronger than people, and now his power was greatly reduced, and in the face of Shen and Huang, he could only show his dissatisfaction on his face, but he didn't dare to make any other moves.

Zhao Junchen ignored Wen Guanliang's hatred and dissatisfaction, but instead gestured to Shen and Huang, looked respectful, and said loudly: "The two seniors are really honored to get together!" ”

"Where, where." While Huang Yourong was speaking, he had already walked in front of Zhao Junchen, and bowed his hand and said, "Junchen is invited, why can't the old man come?" In recent days, Junchen has been in the limelight so much, the old man just wants to get closer to Junchen, even if Junchen doesn't invite the old man today, the old man will invite Junchen to get together in a few days. ”

On the other side, although Shen Changmao didn't say much, he also nodded at Zhao Junchen.

It's just that Wen Guanliang, who is also an important cabinet minister with them, is by Zhao Junchen's side, but Huang Yourong and Shen Changmao don't seem to see it at all, and they don't pay attention to it.

As the saying goes, "the landing phoenix is not as good as a chicken", in the eyes of Huang Yourong and Shen Changmao, the original Wen Guanliang is certainly not a phoenix, but today's Wen Guanliang's status is not much more noble than chickens and ducks.

Wen Guanliang understood this very well, and after snorting lightly again, he didn't pay attention to Shen Changmao and Huang Yourong, but just said to Zhao Junchen: "Since Shen and Huang are old, and the old man still has something to do, he will leave first." ”

Knowing that Wen Guanliang didn't want to be angry here anymore, and planned to prepare the silver, Zhao Junchen nodded and said with a smile: "In this case, Wen Ge will go slowly, and the lower officials will not send it." ”

Next, the negotiations between Zhao Junchen and Shen Huang are mainly Wen Guanliang's affairs, but in a way, they really have nothing to do with Wen Guanliang.
