Being repeatedly rubbed by Wang Ting, Chu Fan had long been mentally prepared - on the return trip, from Chen Shangren's vague description, Chu Fan already understood that what he was about to encounter was an old fox who had been in officialdom for a long time.

Before, Wang Ting tried to say something "just let it go", that is to define this matter, that is to say, he agreed with Chu Fan's basic plan, as for how to implement this plan, and what price still needs to be paid, this will have to fight with the old fox again.

So Chu Fan stabilized his mind and began a difficult negotiation, "In the opinion of the old parents, how should the student deal with this matter?" ”

Wang Ting tried to see him follow his own routine, his expression couldn't help but soften, he stopped picking his nails, and muttered, "This Sun Zhenwu insisted that you should be through the Tartars, for the sake of today's plan, you can only get out if you fall in with him...... It's just that this government is only from the fourth grade, and it is not worth it in the eyes of the ministries...... If you want to take down this Sun Zhenwu, the best way is to join the members of Denglai...... In this way, it is difficult to protect the position of this thief as a guerrilla. ”

Chu Fan heard the words "this thief" come out of his mouth, and understood very well that in fact, Wang Tingqian also hated Sun Zhenwu to the core, and he was determined to get rid of him, and he felt a little relieved in his heart.

However, when Wang Ting tried to say this, he entered the rhythm of asking for bribes.

Chu Fan had already dug out Sun Zhenwu's details from Chen Shangren, how could he not know that this Sun Zhenwu was the person who tried Wang Ting. If you want to take him down, in fact, the royal court can try to go to the book alone, and the governor and the military must be eager for the guerrilla position to be vacant -- only when there are vacancies can they install their own people.

However, complaining is complaining, but the play still has to be performed according to the script, so he immediately made a statement of righteous indignation, "What Fuzun said is extremely true!" This thief falsely accuses the good of being a thief, killing the good and risking the merits, and Denglai's shepherd guards the gods like lightning, how can he be allowed to do anything wrong under the Langlang Qiankun! ”

Wang Ting glanced at him tentatively, twisted his beard and said, "That's what you said...... It's just that the governor Sun and the soldier Liu have always been negligent in moving around, and if they want to be named this time, I'm afraid it won't be easy...... And this thief has always been good at observing words and feelings, and he has been walking very hard to the governor's yamen recently, and there is a rumor that he wants to join forces with Lord Sun...... It's tricky. ”

Chu Fan secretly rolled his eyes, saying that so much was nothing more than asking for money, but he still had to say with a smiling face, "The students also know a little bit about this middle way...... The Lord is willing to run for the students to get rid of the misfortune, and the students are unforgettable, but they have to ask for something, and the students should bear it by themselves. ”

Wang Ting tried to sigh in a pretentious manner, and said with a look of reluctance and extreme embarrassment, "Speaking of which, your family has suffered a catastrophe, and this government really can't bear it...... But if you don't bring down this thief now, you don't know what he will be tossed into by him...... It's not easy to bring down a guerrilla...... Ladies and gentlemen, how can the slippery officials below them be driven without silver? …… It is the two departments of soldiers and officials in Beijing, and they have to work up and down, so this thing can be done thoroughly. ”

Saying this, Wang Ting tried to twist his beard and looked at Chu Fan, looking like he wanted to speak and stopped.

Chu Fan still didn't understand, this Wang Tingtry just stretched out his hand from his eyes to ask for money, and immediately bowed slightly and said, "The silver you need is geometric, but the mansion says it's okay." ”

Wang Tingqian is worthy of being an old oilman in the officialdom, and his sympathetic expression is vivid, and he was embarrassed for a long time before he stretched out a slap and said, "At least there must be a number of ten thousand and five to be able to do the whole thing!" ”

After speaking, he immediately added, "This is already a careful plan by the government, otherwise if you want to bring down a fourth-grade master, you don't have twenty or thirty thousand silver, how can you do it!" ”

Chu Fan couldn't help but grit his teeth fiercely, and had already greeted all the female relatives of the Wang Tingqian family from top to bottom in his heart!

At the beginning, he made this plan based on the principle of saving life first, so the real estate of the title deed and ship deed was sacrificed first, as for the ten thousand taels of silver, that is the capital left for the future sea, and it will not be moved if it can be moved.

So this time he tried to fight in the ring with Wang Ting, his psychological bottom line was 5,000 taels of silver, who would have thought that Wang Ting would open his mouth when he tried to come up, but it was a posture that he would not give up if he didn't squeeze himself dry!

If all the silver is given to Wang Ting, even if the life of the whole family is saved, what will he do to run the sea trade in the future? It's hard for a good woman to cook without rice!

Thinking of this, Chu Fan wanted to give Wang Ting a slap on that fat face, his mother's heart was too dark!

But now that the situation is pressing, not only does he not dare to be rude, but he also has to try to explain to Wang Ting tactfully that his own family has been hollowed out, and he really can't take out this money like money.

Wang Tingtry also complained again and again, counting the difficulties of doing things, and the two of them bargained like businessmen.

After about half an hour, Wang Tingtry became impatient, slapped the table and said, "This mansion is trying its best to plan for you, but you are so ignorant!" …… Without 10,000 pieces of silver, this matter must not be done, and there is no need to say more. ”

Seeing that he was angry, Chu Fan knew that this was the other party's bottom line, so he reluctantly reached out and took out those silver tickets and put them on the land deed, "The student's net worth and life are all here...... I hope that the triumphant song of the house will be played early, and one will defeat this thief. ”

Looking at the thick stack of silver tickets, Wang Ting's face turned slightly pale, and he snorted lightly, "Okay, this mansion will go for you......"

After speaking, he tapped lightly on the table and whispered slowly, "This self-denial can be described as a loss of money, even if you want to walk with you, I am afraid that I will have more than enough heart and insufficient strength." ”

His words smashed on Chu Fan's head like scorching thunder, causing his heart, which had been hit hard, to be thrown into the oil pot again.

This old fox is too poisonous, he has been squeezed to the ground, why do he continue to bully?

After thinking about it, Chu Fan understood that the old guy was aiming at his own house!

The mansion with three courtyards in his house was built by Chu An three years ago, and with the furniture and objects in the house, it cost more than 20,000 silver.

Looking at Wang Tingqian's flickering little eyes in the candlelight, Chu Fan was angry.

The darkness of officialdom Chu Fan was also insightful in his previous life, but no matter how dark it is, there must always be a bottom line - killing people is just a nod to the ground.

But Wang Ting's performance today has refreshed Chu Fan's bottom line, it turns out that the bureaucrats of the Ming Dynasty can be so black that they don't give a way out of life!

It turned out that Chu Fan read this period of history at the end of the Ming Dynasty and still couldn't figure out how the civil unrest that started in the northwest and eventually eroded northern China -- with the terrifying tolerance of the Chinese people, how tragic the oppression must have to be for them to rise up and rebel.

Wang Ting's performance taught Chu Fan a good lesson, the bureaucrats of the Ming Dynasty are only afraid that they are all the same way as this old guy who eats people and doesn't spit out bones - he is a student anyway, and he has been squeezed so miserably, and those small people who are going to fight don't know what they will be looted! Rebel? Should! It's long overdue for the opposite!

If Chu Fan had a sharp blade in his hand at this moment, and there was no Zhang family behind him, I am afraid that he would have chopped over this old thief with one knife and gone up the mountain and into the grass!

There is such a group of bureaucrats who knock on the bones and suck the marrow, the Ming Dynasty, and they died unjustly!
