"Since the adults have said so. If the lower official refuses again. Doesn't it seem like a toast and don't eat and drink? Wang Dezhao listened to Zhang Fan's words. I feel a lot better in my heart. asked what Zhang Fan wanted him to do. "Your Excellency, just give your orders. As long as the lower officials can do it. The lower officials must do their best. ”

"I want your help. You can definitely do it. And it doesn't fly. It's just a matter of mouth. Zhang Fan didn't say anything right away. Instead, he planned to give Wang Dezhao another reassuring pill to eat. "And. This thing will definitely not cost you your life. If you do it well. When I return to Beijing in the coming day. Talk to Your Majesty. You also have a share of the credit. ”

Wang Dezhao is not stupid. He knew that these words were just Zhang Fan saying them to comfort himself. There's a lot of stuff in there that can't be taken seriously. But he still couldn't resist thinking about it in his heart. After all, what Zhang Fan said is really good. He knew that with his own intellect. The prefect is his head. This time, I might be able to use this incident to get some political achievements for myself or something. It's good to plan for the future.

"Your Excellency, please speak up." Wang Dezhao said with a smile on his face.

Zhang Fan looked at his expression. I think it's pretty much the same. Only then did he speak: "I said it just now. I think of a way. It can make those people stand out from the silver. And there won't be much movement. In the future, even if the matter leaks out, there will be a way to recover it. It's up to you to help.

"Liu Shan's account books don't have your name on them. So there is no correspondence between you and Liu Shan. This is also the basic that I can use with you with confidence. But there is a point. That account book was actually recorded by Liu Shan alone. The people above don't actually know each other. Of course. Maybe there will be one or two that have a better relationship. Or which particularly smart person can see that the others are also Liu Shan's gang. But they don't know if you're or not. I guess though. These people who know you will see you as such. ”

"Well......" Wang Dezhao listened to Zhang Fan's words. pondered for a while. He said suddenly. "Your Excellency. Xiaguan, I suddenly thought of something. I couldn't figure out what Xia Guan thought before. But after the adults said so. Xia Guan now understands. ”

"Oh. What do you think of. Let's hear it. Zhang Fan was also intrigued by Wang Dezhao's words. Asked.

"Before. There are always some colleagues. Or officials from other provinces who came to the local area. All of them are from Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Fujian. After they met the lower officials. may feel that the appearance of the lower official does not look like a clean official. will always mention Liu Shan intentionally or unintentionally in front of the lower officials. Then. I don't have a clue at all. I don't know why these people keep mentioning Liu Shan. I thought it was Liu Shan who had some quirks or something. But at the same time colleagues in officialdom. Although many of them are officials from places far away from Yangzhou. But maybe something will happen someday. Xia Guan had no choice but to smile and nodded. Didn't say anything. Now I think about it after some explanations from adults. It must be these people who think that I am also the one who was co-opted by Liu Shan. In addition, Liu Shan and I are in Yangzhou again. I must have thought I knew something about Liu Shan. You're asking me about it. ”

"Not bad. Exactly. Zhang Fan said. Now. That's where you come in handy. I want you to let the wind go. Actually, it's all true. Roughly that's what it means. After Liu Shanfufa. I got from him several account books that recorded all of Liu Shan's secrets. And then you tell them. The day of the accident. That is, today. You've paid a lot of money to buy off someone close to me. Got a lot of news.

"Specifically. Because I know that there are too many people involved in Liu Shan's account books. Because it's not good to catch them all. You can't just catch a few. But I have come this time by royal order from His Majesty. A thorough investigation of corrupt officials is a trivial matter. Paying the money back to His Majesty is a big deal. Wait until a few more days. If I haven't figured it out yet. Then I'm going to go door-to-door and ask for it. Of course. Doing so is bound to cause problems for the people I knock on the door. But I can't care about that much anymore. Zhang Fan stopped at this point.

"That's it, sir." Wang Dezhao saw Zhang Fan stop. It's just that he also heard that things wouldn't be the only way it was. Asked with some confusion. "Just like that. My lord. I guess those people still can't understand what the adults want them to do. They will be scared in addition to that. I'm afraid I won't just call out the money obediently. And. In the past, Xia Guan would have misunderstood what these people meant when they talked to me. They were never answered. They may not be willing to believe the words of the lower officials. ”

"You can rest assured of that. They will definitely believe you. Zhang Fan said very surely. But then he changed to an extremely serious expression. Said. "Of course. It also depends on how well you act. If it's not good. Let them see something. I won't spare you. ”

"This ...... The lower officials must do their best...... Try your best to ......" Wang Dezhao was said by Zhang Fan. A lot of cold sweat broke out again. He hurriedly nodded in agreement.

"Of course. I won't be too you. I don't expect you to say that. Those people will be in a hurry to send the money over. Zhang Fan continued. You tell them. After you know I want money. I feel that there is still hope for my life. He came to me alone. Tell me that you will give all your money. Come buy peace. Then tell them. I agreed. As for you. Let's just say that you are now free of life. And the seat of the prefect of Yangzhou is still sitting. But then I want to go up. That's not possible. ”

"Hmm. The wonders of the adult's thoughts. Come to think of it. The lower officials only need to talk to those people like this. Those people should have understood. Wang Dezhao listened to Zhang Fan's words. Said. "But my lord. Xia Guan was still a little worried. In case of...... In case there are a few of them hard bones. Or some people who have connections in the imperial court. Relying on their own backstage. I don't buy adult accounts. What can I do? My lord. You need to know. This time the adults are asking for money. And the more such people are. The more money they get their hands on. ”

"Hmm......" Zhang Fan heard Wang Dezhao say. I thought about it immediately. Regarding this point mentioned by Wang Dezhao. He hadn't really thought about it before. Now Wang Dezhao has spoken out. When he thought about it, it was a problem. In case you really run into such a person. But it's not good to force him to comply. These people will still hold on to the field when they get to this point. must be people who don't see the coffin and don't die. But that didn't bother Zhang Fan. He immediately came up with an idea. said to Wang Dezhao. "Add another one to it if you let it out. Just say I heard it from someone you paid for. Say I'm here this time. Your Majesty is to prevent some officials from being arrogant. I think that some people in the DPRK and China can do anything wrong if they hold up the backstage. Therefore, His Majesty specially handed over the sword of Emperor Taizu to me. If anyone disobeys discipline. Then just cut it. When the time comes, the man will die in vain. No one would dare to speak up for him. ”

"This ...... Grown-up clever plan. What a clever idea. Wang Dezhao listened to these words. Hurry up and shoot it together. But there was a cold sweat in his heart. Thinking about it, Longqing wants money and wants to go crazy. Even this kind of thing was handed over to Zhang Fan. This sword is the largest under the Son of Heaven in the Ming Dynasty. Don't say it's a magistrate. It is an important member of Beijing. That's also saying that you can cut it. That's just the case. It's just that the rest of the matter is not easy to do.

Now Zhang Fan has this thing in hand. Wang Dezhao only needs to reveal this news again. Where do those people have a reason not to pay obediently. Merely......

"It's just an adult. This money. How should I leave it to an adult? Wang Dezhao asked.

The Ming Dynasty has been since its founding. There are two forms of money. One is paper money. One is metal coins, including gold, silver, copper, and so on. But metal money is really not easy to transport. Not to mention the fact that there are so many of them. The weight is too heavy. The volume is also too large. And the "Daming Treasure Banknote" officially issued by the imperial court. The money with the largest face value is always money. That is, one or two. That's the math down. Gotta have as many as there are.

In addition, the so-called silver tickets issued by the bank. Honestly. I don't have any insurance after I get out of the place. Zhang Fan was also poisoned by TV series in his previous life. The merry characters inside are tens of thousands of taels of silver tickets at every turn, waving their hands. Chic. And those money banks. It looks just like a modern bank.

Waited until here. He really understood. The so-called money bank. It's just a nice name. In fact, it is a money shop. What is a money shop? It is a shop that re-casts the broken silver into silver ingots. It's just that some shops do not do a small scale. So this kind of bill that can be used as proof is issued. It is for the silver ticket. But it's too placed. Out of the bank's sphere of influence is basically useless. And now at this time. The Ming Dynasty did not yet have a national big money bank. In addition to the fact that the army is relatively safe. The only way for the people to find a dart game is to find a dart game. But in general. It's just a lot of trouble.

"Hmm. It's also a nuisance. Zhang Fan pondered again. Just this thing. He thought about it and thought of a good way. I had to use the most cumbersome method. "Say I'll tell you to put all the money you have into chests. Shipped to ...... Transported to the branch of Yangzhou Jinyiwei. Naturally, the people there will help you register. When the time comes, I'll use this to find out what has slipped through the net. But not asking for money. Is there any punishment for the rest? Let them think for themselves. ”

Wang Dezhao listened. Hurriedly agreed. I also admire Zhang Fan in my heart. There is no need to tell those people what the consequences are. This ambiguous way. On the contrary, it can be scary.
