Chapter 173: Don't give an inch
In the prefect's court, Lei Xiaotian was in a cold sweat, and Li Xi's thirty boards were crying wolf when he was less than halfway through, and his previous tough guy image was completely gone. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Looking at his dead and alive look, Lei Xiaotian was complacent about his previous knowledge. In the past, when the prefect beat a prisoner, he didn't feel anything, he would become a prisoner himself, and it was very likely that he would suffer the same crime as Li Xi.
Lei Xiaotian had a personal experience, although the board was hit on Li Xi's body, at this moment, it had a kind of touch like hitting him.
Li Xi is indeed not as tough as he imagined, and in less than twenty strokes of the board, he has fainted directly. Ye Shaolong doesn't want him to die yet, it's too cheap for him to die, and the Li family owes him more than he has to spit it out.
The guards doused Li Xi with cold water to wake him up, and Ye Shaolong snorted coldly: "How is it?" Now you're going to harden Ben-sama! ”
"No, don't dare! Adults can do whatever they want, but please don't fight anymore. Li Xi had never tasted this kind of taste in his life, and at this time he had already regretted it so much that his intestines were green.
When he was in decline, he was working against Ye Shaolong, wasn't it unpleasant to find himself! What bullshit would rather die than give in, what iron-clad is it's all fucking bullshit.
Seeing that Li Xi might burp at any time, Ye Shaolong had to let someone take him down first, and also ordered him to find a Lang Zhong to hang his life.
After dealing with Li Xi, Ye Shaolong looked at Lei Xiaotian, hesitated for a moment, and asked everyone to retreat, leaving Tie Tower alone by his side.
"Lei Xiaotian, now tell me how you want to atone for your sins." Ye Shaolong squatted in front of Lei Xiaotian, looked directly at him and asked coldly.
"My lord, I am willing to give all my family property with both hands, and I only ask you to spare my family. And also...... And give me a good time! Lei Xiaotian knew that he was going to die, but he didn't dare to expect Ye Shaolong to spare his life, he just hoped to get a happy death.
"All your possessions! Hehe....... Ye Shaolong suddenly laughed.
It is still impossible to know how much property Lei Xiaotian has, but the account offices and bookkeeping officials sent by the little emperor who followed several Ye families have already settled in the palace.
It will take some time to know how many of these accounts there are, but Ye Shaolong is not interested in these, but the ones that Lei Xiaotian secretly hid.
On the surface, Ye Shaolong definitely believes that there is not much money, and these are all to be handed over to the little emperor. What he wants is the money that can't be seen in the ledger, and this is the big head of Lei Xiaotian.
Someone has already reported just now, saying that Lei Xiaotian's family is not in the mansion and must have been transferred elsewhere. With an old fox like Lei Xiaotian, if he doesn't have a private hiding, he will deceive the ghost!
Lei Xiaotian trembled with laughter from Ye Shaolong's laughter, and he understood that it was almost impossible for him to hide from Ye Shaolong.
Gritting his teeth, Lei Xiaotian knew that if he didn't vomit some blood, Ye Shaolong would definitely not give up: "Don't hide it from your lord, Xia Guan has indeed made a lot of money over the years, but it is absolutely indispensable to hand it in." Now there is definitely not much left, things have come to this point, and the lower officials don't dare to expect to leave any money, 100 million, this is all I have. ”
Ye Shaolong sneered in his heart, Lei Xiaotian was crying poverty with himself, if he was a prefect elsewhere, he might not be able to earn tens of millions of taels after a few years of death.
But this is the most prosperous foreign trade place in the country, and it is also the richest place, so to speak, the most wealthy people in the country have industries here.
Usually, these merchants pay tribute, not to mention a lot of secret transactions, these are the big ones. For example, the last time the Ye and Tang families had an accident, Lei Xiaotian definitely made no less than 100 million.
"It seems that you don't cry when you don't see the coffin, put away your little thoughts, and don't try to fool the past in front of this official. Last time, because of the Dolha incident, my Ye family directly lost 300 million taels of silver. The official doesn't want you to give more, and if you fill the hole of 300 million taels, you will spare your family, otherwise...... Hum! ”
If you don't get rid of Lei Xiaotian, Ye Shaolong will not give up, and the losses suffered by the Ye family and the Tang family in the provincial capital will inevitably be doubled. Lei Xiaotian is only recovering the direct property losses here, and as for the earnings, he has to get out of the water from the Li family.
Ye Shaolong had already made plans before he set off from the capital, if he made this trip to the provincial capital. Unable to get back what he had lost, he would not give up.
Lei Xiaotian's face changed continuously, Ye Shaolong's estimate was indeed within his bottom line, if he wanted to take out 300 million taels of silver according to what Ye Shaolong said. Without the support of the prefect and the money, he can imagine that his family will fall apart soon after his death.
It is inevitable that he will make enemies during his tenure, and when his family is completely unable to protect himself, perdition is the only way.
In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through Lei Xiaotian's heart, but in the end, he found that if he didn't do what Ye Shaolong said. Perhaps his family doesn't even have a chance to live longer, and once they are implicated, it is not impossible to exterminate the race.
"How's it going, have you figured it out?" Ye Shaolong Shi Shiran returned to the main seat, and looked at Lei Xiaotian with a smile whose face had been changing.
"Alas......"
After a sigh, Lei Xiaotian nodded and agreed to Ye Shaolong's request, if the money is gone, maybe the family still has a chance to survive. But if his life is gone, what is the use of keeping that much money?
Lei Xiaotian didn't make any more pleas, and promised that he would have someone deliver 300 million taels of silver in three days. Ye Shaolong did not embarrass him, and at the same time promised that he would not embarrass his family again.
Let people take Lei Xiaotian down to be optimistic, Ye Shaolong took the iron tower to the backyard, which has been blocked by a group of officers and soldiers. More than a dozen account offices were busy registering the furniture that the officers and soldiers had moved out, as well as some valuables.
Mingzhu Gege and her sister are supervising here, and these two girls have lived up to the respect of their royal brother. I'm quite serious about doing things!
Ye Shaolong leaned in and said with a smile: "How is it, how much has it been cleaned up?" ”
Mingzhu Gege is not as cold as before, but for some reason, she has always been cold to Ye Shaolong.
Seeing Ye Shaolong's question, she didn't make any response, and turned her head directly. However, his sister Chenzhu Gege said with a smile: "I didn't expect that a small prefect in this provincial city actually has so much family property, and now only about half of it has been registered, and it has nearly five million taels, it seems that this prefect is indeed not a good official." ”
