Seeing Zhang Twelve's reaction, Dong Zhaocai realized something, touched his head, and smiled a little wryly.

Zhang Twelve felt that he was thinking too much, and said with a smile: "Why did Dong Gongzi think of coming to me today?" ”

Dong Zhao didn't hide it, and said straight to the point: "I don't know what Brother Zhang told me a few days ago, but can you still count?" ”

Zhang Twelve raised his eyebrows: "Zhang naturally counts when he speaks, what's the matter, Dong Gongzi has already gotten something?" ”

Dong Zhao glanced at the subordinate standing at the door a few times, felt not very relieved, and whispered to Zhang Twelve: "Brother Zhang, can we take a step to speak?" ”

Zhang Twelve also knew the importance of this matter, nodded, and followed him to a remote dead end next to him.

Dong Zhao took out a three-finger-thick account book from his arms, handed it to Zhang Twelve, and said, "Brother Zhang, take a look, is this the account book you want?" ”

Zhang Twelve only flipped a few pages before he was sure that this was what he wanted.

And the more he flipped down, the more pleasantly surprised, this account book not only recorded all the money and property of the Zhao family grain village in the past ten years, but also included the accounts of about 20 other large and small grain houses in Jinling City!

Although I am curious about how Zhao Baiyu got the accounts of other grain villages, one thing is certain, based on this account book alone, the top grain village in Jinling, Zhang Twelve said that whoever he wants to fall!

With these account books and comparing the tax payments of these grain farms in the prefect in the past ten years, they will definitely sit in prison!

Zhang Twelve smiled and closed the dead account book, nodded and said, "This is indeed it!" Dong Gongzi has a good means, I didn't expect this kind of confidential thing to be obtained by you, Zhang admires it! ”

What I thought in my heart was that this is a model of strength and pit father!

With this kind of son, Zhao Baiyu is unlucky!

Dong Zhao couldn't hear the sarcasm in Zhang Twelve's words, and thought that Zhang Twelve's praise was praising him, so he said modestly: "Where, where, this little thing is very simple!" ”

Dong Zhao lived in the Zhao family when he was a child, he was very skinny at that time, he had to touch everything, and he had to go in and see everywhere, the more everyone didn't let him, the more he wanted to see it!

As for his life experience, it was also because he secretly bumped into Zhao Baiyu and his mother in bed that he slowly understood.

So when he saw Zhao Baiyu enter the study, he secretly looked outside, so he found the hidden dark room in the study, and then sneaked in a few times, and he knew very well what was in it!

It's just that he never thought that the things in it would become a bargaining chip in his future life, but in his opinion, it was all worth it!

Zhang Twelve spoke, took out a few silver tickets from his clothes, handed them to Dong Zhaodao: "Dong Gongzi, 10,000 taels of silver tickets, you click on it!" ”

Dong Zhao didn't expect Zhang Twelve to be so bold, he took out 10,000 taels directly, without even blinking an eye, and the first time he got so many silver tickets as 10,000 taels, his hands trembled a little!

Hey, people are more angry than people!

got the silver ticket, Dong Zhao carefully wrapped it.

"When does Dong Gongzi plan to leave Jinling?"

"Huh?"

Zhang Twelve's sudden sentence made Dong Zhao not react, and after reacting, only one sentence echoed in his mind: How did he know that I was leaving Jinling? A layer of cold sweat broke out behind him, if it weren't for the silver ticket in his hand, he would really think that he had touched the black and the black!

"Don't be nervous, I guessed too. You stole the account book of the Zhao family, which can be regarded as offending the Zhao family, if you continue to stay in Jinling, I am afraid it will be inappropriate! So I advised Dong Gongzi that it was best to plan ahead and leave Jinling! ”

Hearing this, Dong Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time was moved by Zhang Twelve's reminder, thought for a moment, gritted his teeth, as if he had made some important decision, and said to Zhang Twelve: "Brother Zhang, I still have a book here, anyway, I have to leave Jinling, it's useless to keep this thing, so I simply sell it to Brother Zhang!" Brother Zhang, look at me, give me some silver! ”

Dong Zhao entered the dark room in Zhao Baiyu's study, and found that there was a book in addition to the account book, opened it and turned a few pages, and the things recorded in it were a little shocking, which made him feel scared.

He originally wanted to use this thing as a talisman, but after thinking about it just now, this thing not only can't protect himself, but is a burden!

After thinking about it for a while, I thought it would be better to send it out together!

It doesn't matter if you don't give him money, after all, this thing is too scary to carry on his body, and if he can give money, no matter how much, it will be earned!

…………

Zhang Twelve took the book curiously.

There is nothing on the cover of this book, and the size and thickness are not as good as the account book, and I don't know what is in this book.

With curiosity, Zhang Twelve opened the book.

As soon as he read the first page, his hands trembled.

Dong Zhao next to him saw it, and he was relieved, because Zhang Twelve's reaction now was exactly the same as when he first read this book, he was so scared that he trembled!

But he misunderstood, Zhang Twelve was not so scared that he trembled, but was so excited that he trembled!

Compared with the ledger, Zhang Twelve values this more!

Because this book records that over the years, many grain villages in Jinling, including the Zhao family grain village, have given a small part of the tax evasion money to King Kang, and a large part of it has been given to the prince!

This is also the reason why Jinling has changed several prefects, and each prefect has discovered the problem of tax evasion in the grain village but has not taken care of it: dare not care!

With King Kang and the crown prince on their heads, no wonder Zhao Baiyu dared to be so rampant! Even Wang Chengen, the prefect, doesn't pay attention to it!

Zhang Twelve is worried that the prince has been doing well recently, and there is no reason to mess with him!

Now with this book, as long as you make a little use of it, Zhang Twelve has the confidence to take the prince down!

The money that was originally handed over to the treasury and the Tang Emperor ended up in the prince's pocket, what is the nature of this?

To put it mildly, it was the prince who ate lard and was a little greedy for money - no wonder he cheated the prince a few times, and every time he had so much silver, it turned out to be because of this!

Speaking of which, why do you want so much silver for a prince? Do you have an opinion about Emperor Tang and want to rebel?

Well, the reason for the rebellion is good, Zhang Twelve has already decided, when he returns to Jingzhou, he must buckle this hat to the prince, and it is best to let Emperor Tang depose him!

The crown prince is too stingy, and he will repay him, if he becomes the emperor - Zhang Twelve feels uncomfortable just thinking about it......

There is just one point, since the death of King Xiang, among the current princes, except for the crown prince, the others are minors, if the prince is deposed, who can take over his position? Who will be the next emperor?

Suddenly, a pretty figure appeared in Zhang Twelve's mind!

That's right!

Why can't Princess Yilan?

In the era before him, the Tang Dynasty had Wu Zetian as the empress.

In the era he lives in now, why can't Datang let Yilan be the queen?

As soon as this idea appeared, it lingered, and it was very interesting to think that I could not be called an emperor when I traveled to this era, but if I could cultivate a female emperor with my own hands!

…………

"Brother Zhang, Brother Zhang......"

Seeing Zhang Twelve trembling from before to smirking alone, Dong Zhao was a little flustered, not knowing what he meant.

Could it be that you were scared silly?

Zhang Twelve's thoughts were pulled back by Dong Zhao, and he said with a smile: "Dong Gongzi, you even handed over such a good thing to me, you are really good to me!" ”

Dong Zhao smiled a little awkwardly and didn't reply.

Zhang Twelve was moved by this sentence, and he never meant to ridicule him, but he just heard the mockery.

Because he thinks this book is a hot potato, no one dares to take it, but he just gave it to him, of course he thinks he's doing something!

If you want to deal with them, you may only be able to take the account book, but after seeing this book, does he dare to deal with Zhao Baiyu?

After all, Zhao Baiyu's matter will implicate King Kang and the crown prince, who would dare to touch him?

Dong Zhao couldn't help but regret a little, he wouldn't see this book, he didn't dare to engage in Zhao Baiyu, and at the same time he didn't want that account book, right?

Don't!

Dong Zhao clenched the silver ticket in his clothes hard, this silver ticket has already arrived in his hand, and no one can take it anymore!

He just wanted to say that he would give him this book for nothing, but before he could open his mouth, he saw Zhang Twelve groping in his clothes for a while, and then took out a few silver tickets, handed them to Dong Zhao and said: "Dong Gongzi, this book, I bought it for five thousand taels, do you think it's okay?" ”

“…………”

Happiness came too suddenly, and Dong Zhao was completely stunned.

Could it be that this person is a big fool, such a thing, others can't avoid it, and he spends so much money for it, don't be too stupid!

But he was not stupid, he took the silver ticket from Zhang Twelve's hand tremblingly, didn't even hear what he said later, and finally took the silver ticket and left with a smirk.

Fifteen thousand taels of silver far exceeded his expectations, and what he could expect now was to leave Jinling early......

…………

Zhang Twelve's mood is happier now than when food prices dropped.

Just take the two things in your hand, these grain farms are going to be finished, King Kang is going to be finished, and the prince is going to be finished!

These people who he can't get used to, as long as he wants to, let them finish!

What could be more exciting than this?

Back in the front hall, Mrs. Wang and Wang Yunshi had already finished eating and left the table, Mrs. Wang took Wang Yunshi's hand and walked out, I didn't know what to say, but Mrs. Wang always looked at Zhang Twelve before leaving, and I didn't know whether she was intentional or unintentional......

The two of them left, and there were only Zhang Twelve and Wang Chengen's father and son left in the front hall, and they had a few more drinks with Wang Chengen and Wang Ba, and Zhang Twelve opened his mouth and asked, "Wang Governor's Mansion, do you hope that this matter will end here?" ”

Wang Chengen was obviously stunned and asked, "Zhang Gongzi, shouldn't the matter be over?" ”

He believes that the price of food has fallen and the displaced people have been disbanded, which is already the best ending, and he has some doubts about Zhang Twelve's questioning.

Zhang Twelve smiled and said, "Governor Wang, this time it's just a symptom but not a root cause!" ”

So he analyzed it for Wang Chengen, and the dissatisfaction of the owner of Jinling Grain Farm with him mainly came from the fact that Wang Chengen was different from the original prefect after he came to power, and he did not turn a blind eye when collecting taxes.

As long as he still collects taxes from the public, this group of people will still hate him, and after a long time, they will naturally find trouble with him, and they will not stop until they drive him away!

Wang Chengen listened and fell into deep thought.

That's a good point, the source of the matter is in taxes.

In fact, when he first came to Jinling, he was quite angry when he found out about this kind of thing, and wanted to arrest all these businessmen who evaded taxes, but later Master Song stopped him.

As soon as he arrived in Jinling, he would arrest the merchants in Jinling City, which would cause public anger, and even if he wanted to arrest him, what about the evidence?

In the end, I could only give up, just warn them, but the price of this warning is not small, if it weren't for Zhang Twelve, Wang Chengen would have been gaover, and the warning was still like this, and the others didn't dare to think about it.

"Dad, take this opportunity to punish them severely! To say that there is no grain in stock, to say that you buy grain from Taizhou Grain Village to sell, is simply a liar! ”

Wang Ba also said dissatisfied.

Although this time the matter of grain prices was a big victory for them, it was far from making Wang Ba feel very happy, what he hoped was to arrest them all and see if these Jinling people were still proud!

Wang Chengen ignored him.

He just said it was simple, but how could it be so simple to do? Everything must have evidence, and without evidence everything is in vain!

"Zhang Gongzi, don't hide it, Wang wanted to rectify tax evasion and tax evasion from the beginning, but because there was no evidence, he could only let things happen before Wang took office!"

After listening to Wang Chengen's words, he opened the corner of his mouth and smiled: "Don't you just want evidence, what's so difficult about this!" ”

Saying that, Zhang Twelve handed over the account book he had just bought from Dong Zhao, Wang Chengen took it and looked at it, the more he looked at it, the more shocked he became, and the expression on his face was also mixed!

Happily, relying on this account book and the tax book in the prefect's mansion alone, it is more than enough to cure the sins of these people, but the worry is that there are too many Jinling merchants involved in this account book!

If you catch them all, not to mention that it will cause social unrest, even a prison cell will not be enough! How can you shut up so many people!

Wang Chengen told Zhang Twelve about his worries, and Zhang Twelve smiled: "What's so difficult about this? As the saying goes, the law does not blame the public, and those grain owners who are involved in a small amount of money, as long as they pay the taxes they have paid in these years, then they are not to blame in the past! As for those big grain farms, if they also want to avoid prison by paying back taxes, it is not impossible, but they must pay double the silver! If you don't want to, hehe, they deserve it in Jinling Prison! ”

This proposal was good, and it was immediately approved by Wang Chengen and Wang Ba.

Especially Wang Ba, I finally feel a little more arrogant!

When the time comes, let each of their families pay the money, if they hand it over, it's okay to say, if they can't pay it, they will be taken away and sent to prison directly - wow, it's exciting to think about!

After drinking, Zhang Twelve discussed with Wang Chengen for a while, discussed how to act this time, and decided tomorrow's actions, and the dinner was over.
