As the sun began to move toward the western mountains, the shadow of the big willow tree in the courtyard of the guild house of the grain store seemed to have dragged on for an infinite time, and the birds on the tree lingered in a circle above everyone's heads, not daring to come down to find food as before, and cooed twice with resentment, and flapped their wings and flew away.

The bidding ended, and in the end the imperial court received a huge sum of 570,000 yuan.

This number amazed everyone, and also made everyone's expressions complicated when they looked at Zhang Bin.

The news has been sent to the palace, and it can be imagined how excited Zhao Ji, the son of heaven, who has always been troubled by the lack of money in the imperial court, will be, and how he will reward Zhang Bin and others.

You must know that the success of the bidding for the right to transship and sell grain means that the equalization method that has become a cancer can be abolished, and the other six major industries can also adopt this method, and the imperial court will have at least two million, nay, three million yuan of fixed income every year.

And now the tax revenue that the Great Song Dynasty can enter the treasury of the three divisions every year is only 20 million yuan, which is more than one-tenth.

Everyone knows that Zhang Bin has made a great contribution again, and there will inevitably be a reward from the Son of Heaven, and the reward will never be worse than the last Dashun City.

But Zhang Bin, the client, has been gloomy today, and only a few people know that Zhang Bin's guards killed people, killed officials, and was locked up on death row in the Criminal Department.

………

………

In the courtyard of the guild of the grain store, in the room belonging to the fat man, Chen Wen knelt in front of Zhang Bin, and Zhang Bin stared at Chen Wen thoughtfully.

There was a glimmer of hope in Chen Wen's eyes, and when he saw that there was no one left and right, he said in a low voice: "Official, the villain has been to the official's mansion before......"

Zhang Bin said coldly: "Say it! Who told you to send me those 30,000 yuan? ”

Chen Wen's heart jumped, but he pretended to be stunned on his face, and said, "It's the villain who is confused for a while and wants to buy the adult." ”

"Don't you dare to say it!" Zhang Bin stared at Chen Wen, his eyes were as sharp as a knife, and the latter didn't dare to look at him at all, so he quickly lowered his head.

"The official knows that the villain is really not instructed by others." Chen Wen lowered his head and gritted his teeth and said. There is no way, Wang Yan can't afford to provoke him, if he doesn't tell the other party, Wang Yan may also save him, if he says it, Zhang Bin is happy, but the matter of his bribery of the three small officials is in full view, the two prime ministers and the eunuch who represents the Son of Heaven are there, this crime can't be suppressed, so it's better to carry it and not say it.

Zhang Bin sneered: "You want to carry it for that person, thinking that he will save you, but that person may be thinking about how to kill people." ”

Chen Wen's face changed, and before he could say anything, a black iron token slipped out of Zhang Bin's sleeve, still at Chen Wen's feet, and continued: "This official also has an official position to appease the head of Si Shouque, do you know that this tender is related to the raising of grain and grass for the 100,000 army of the imperial court to fight with the Western Thieves on the front line, and you want to sabotage this matter, so this official suspects that your Chen family is colluding with the Western Thieves, which is a major crime of the three clans." ”

"The villain has wronged ......" Chen Wen's expression changed drastically, staring at the black iron token with the three big characters of the appeasement division written on it, his body trembled slightly, and soon he was sweating like rain.

It didn't take long for Chen Wen to tremble and say: "The official is Mingjian, the villain will say, the villain is all confessed, it was Wang Yan in the palace of the Wang Xianggong who instructed the villain to bribe the official, and the official Sima of Longtuge University instructed the villain to connect with the grain merchants and want to bid at a low price, and our Chen family will never collude with the western thief." ”

Zhang Bin couldn't help but change his face after hearing Wang Yan's name, although there was no evidence, he immediately understood that the tiger head thing was done by Wang Yan, and the real purpose was of course him.

Chen Wen saw that Zhang Bin didn't speak for a long time, and when he thought that he might be punished by the three clans, he was terrified to death, and while kowtowing, he said: "Official Mingjian, our Chen family will never collude with the Western thief, official Mingjian!" ”

"Who is your Chen family's backer in the court?" Zhang Bin asked lightly.

Although this question can be regarded as secret, it is not difficult to inquire, and Chen Wen hopes that Zhang Bin can see that on the basis of their backers, he will let him go, so he hurriedly said: "The official who returned to the palace is Li Chang, who supervises the imperial history, and the people of our Chen family often help him find out some news, and he uses this news to impeach other officials." ”

The result of "Li Chang ......" surprised Zhang Bin a little, but if he thought about it carefully, the logic was not wrong, if the imperial history of the court wanted to gain merit, reflect the sense of existence, and increase fame, he had to keep impeaching officials, honorables, and even the harem.

Of course, the higher the official character, the more noble the status, the greater their harvest will be, and to impeach these people, you must come up with some real materials, but the identity of these people, the things that can be impeached are naturally not easy to explore, I think there are forces like the Chen family behind every imperial history, even if it is the worst imperial history, it is estimated that there are a few informants who spend money to hire in the people!

"Although the imperial history is noble, you should also know that with Li Chang's identity, now I can't wait for the people of your Chen family to die immediately, so that I can get rid of the relationship with you." Zhang Bin said lightly.

"The official's eyes are like torches...... Chen Wen patted his ass with a bitter face, obviously he also thought of this possibility, and he also saw that Zhang Bin had no friendship with Li Chang, and it was impossible to let him go for Li Chang's sake.

Zhang Bin stared at Chen Wen and suddenly said, "I heard that your Chen family has a deep relationship with the Cao Gang, which is why Li Chang wants to find you for some news, right?" ”

Chen Wen didn't know what Zhang Bin meant, but at this time, he didn't dare to hide anything, and hurriedly said: "Back to the official, the villain's younger brother Chen Wu is the deputy leader of the Cao Gang. ”

Zhang Bin's eyes flashed, and he said: "I will lock you up in the prison of appeasing the secret, as for whether you can see Shengtian again, whether your Chen family can prove their innocence, let your brother Chen Wu come to see me!" ”

………

………

Half a day later, in Zhang Bin's house, Chen Wen's younger brother, Chen Wu, knelt in front of Zhang Bin again.

"Official, the villain can use all his strength to help the official do things, but the problem is how the villain believes what the official says." Although Chen Wu knelt, he did not look cowardly, as if he had something to rely on, or had other ideas.

Zhang Bin took a deep look at Chen Wu and said, "In just half a day, you have already gone to Wang Yan and begged him to save your eldest brother, this is your reliance." ”

"What the official said, the villain didn't understand." Chen Wu's pupils shrank, and his face seemed to have no change, but under Zhang Bin's eyes, he didn't dare to look at each other and lowered his head.

He didn't expect that the young official in front of him had such vicious eyes, and as soon as he spoke, the other party saw what he thought was hidden deeply.

Zhang Bin didn't wait for him to speak, and said: "Your city and acting skills are far worse than your eldest brother, especially your knowledge." So don't think that if your brother dies, you can become the new head of the Chen family. Because your eldest brother is condemned to death row for fornicating with thieves, all the clansmen in the Chen family will be imprisoned. ”

Chen Wu's face finally changed this time, and it became ugly and panicked.
