Not twenty taels, not two hundred taels, but two hundred thousand taels!

Xiao Fan's mouth opened wide this time, and Ji Gang had seen a lot of wind and waves in the court in the past two years, and he was so frightened that he was planted on the ground.

This also fully proves that there may be an upper limit to the nobility of character, but there is no lower limit to the despicability of character.

The smiling grandfather in front of him is an obvious example.

Ji Gang's whole person seemed to have been struck by lightning, and he sat motionless in the flower hall, with only one thought lingering in his mind: damn it! It's been falsely accused! This Chinese New Year's Eve meal is so expensive!

"National ...... Grandpa Guo ......" Ji Gang's face turned red: "...... Two hundred thousand taels? ”

Xiao Fan nodded very firmly: "No more, no less, 200,000 taels, does Master Ji want to read the IOU written to me by Wang Yu?" Black and white, clear. ”

"No...... Not necessarily. ”

Ious? Wang Dull is dead, you can write it however you want, anyway, there is no proof of death, what's the use of that thing?

Ji Gang has never hated himself so much for losing his conscience like at this moment, he has nothing to catch Wang Dut, he didn't catch the oil and water, but he found himself a big trouble, this trouble is super big, and it can't be solved by bankruptcy, 200,000 taels! Ji Gang has only been in the officialdom for two years, and he is really proud of the spring breeze for more than a year, although he has scraped a lot of silver left and right, but it is too far from 200,000 taels...... This is the power of the superior, as soon as the two mouths of the people are turned over, the people below will have to go bankrupt...... "Master Ji just said that Wang Yu has received a lot of bribes, presumably it shouldn't be difficult to pay me back 200,000 taels, right?" Xiao Fan looked at Ji Gang's face that was gradually turning blue with concern.

The beads of sweat on Ji Gang's forehead fell, and he hesitated for a while, he felt that he couldn't be the head of this wrong, 200,000 taels, it was one thing not to dare to offend Xiao Fan, but no matter what, there should be a bottom line, Ji Gang couldn't bear the bottom line of 200,000 taels of silver, he couldn't take it out at all.

"Grandpa Mingjian, this is ...... I'm afraid it's a bit hard. Ji Gang said.

According to the rules of officialdom, when Ji Gang said this, Xiao Fan should ask casually, "What's the difficulty?" ”

But this damn Xiao Fan didn't play his cards according to the rules, and when he heard this, he just patted Ji Gang's shoulder lightly, and said with a smile: "It's certain that there are difficulties, what is not difficult to do now?" The Annan Hu clan usurped the throne of the Chen family, and the imperial court was suppressing or appeased? The Northern Yuan Tartars committed the border every year, burning, killing, and plundering, how did the imperial court border army requisition? The southeastern Japanese invaded our sea border frequently, killing people and robbing goods, how did the imperial court meet them? Last year, the rebellion was quelled, the treasury was exhausted, but the people were deeply poisoned, will the tax increase or decrease this year? Daming silk is famous all over the world, raw silk profits are far more than farming, Jiangsu and Zhejiang farmers are now only willing to raise silkworms, unwilling to farm, how to guide the court correctly? In addition, there are the Yellow River Hukou embankment, the locust plague in Shanxi, the flood in Jingchu, and the rebellion of the Tusi in Shudi......"

Xiao Fan's mouth is like the water of the Yangtze River, from diplomacy to military affairs, from military affairs to taxes, agricultural and mulberry rivers...... Ji Gang's eyes widened, watching Xiao Fan's mouth keep turning up and down, his eyes becoming more and more dull...... Halfway through speaking, Xiao Fan suddenly paused, then looked at Ji Gang, and said in a deep tone: "Look, these things, are they difficult?" ”

"Difficult!" Ji Gang nodded heartily.

"It's harder than two hundred thousand taels of silver, isn't it?" Xiao Fan pressed forward step by step.

Although he didn't want to admit it, Ji Gang had to agree that these bullshit national events were indeed much more difficult than 200,000 taels of silver.

Ji Gang sighed and nodded again: "What Grandpa Guo said is very true, these are really much more difficult than 200,000 taels of silver......

Xiao Fan patted him on the shoulder with relief and smiled, the meaning in the smile was obvious, you see, I don't say that it is difficult to deal with so many national affairs every day, just 200,000 taels of silver, should you not even be able to do this little thing, right?

"If there are difficulties to solve, if there are no difficulties, you have to solve them, my lord is very confident in Master Ji, and it won't be a problem to raise 200,000 taels of silver in three days, right?"

Ji Gang felt bitter in his mouth: "............"

This Chinese New Year's Eve meal was very expensive, and Ji Gang ate it very painfully, as if what he ate into his mouth was not the delicacies of the mountains and seas, but a lump of.

Xiao Fan was full of oil, he was in a good mood, he turned his lips a few times, the economic crisis of the Guogong Mansion was successfully resolved, as for how to solve it in Ji Gang,...... That's his business.

At midnight, in the roar of firecrackers, Xiao Mansion ushered in the first day of the second year of Jianwen with joy.

Full of wine and food, the guests and hosts were happy, Xiao Fan personally sent Ji Gang to the front of the house.

"The matter of silver, please ask Lord Ji, this matter should be sooner rather than later, Lord Ji has a lot of trouble." Xiao Fan smiled politely.

Ji Gang turned around, his lips twitched a few times, and finally he couldn't help it, this matter was too serious, he must not carry this black cauldron.

"Grandpa Guo, the lower officials will be honest with you, Yinzi...... Not really! Wang Blunt is a poor bastard at all, he doesn't have a trace of oil and water, and it is impossible to make up 200,000 taels of silver......"

Xiao Fan laughed, half affectionately and half disgusted, and pushed Ji Gang out of the door: "Hahahaha...... What are you kidding, let's raise money quickly! ”

Bang!

The door of the Guogong Mansion was tightly closed.

Ji Gang looked at the two closed vermilion lacquer doors of the Guogong Mansion with a dull gaze, and tears of sadness slipped across his face...... "...... I'm serious!! ”

Three days passed.

Xiao Fan has been busy with the princes and ministers in Beijing for the past few days, and the New Year's gifts sent by his colleagues have made the empty treasury of the Xiao Mansion somewhat stronger.

As soon as the final repayment deadline arrived, as soon as it was dawn, his brother-in-law Chen Ning was ordered by Xiao Fan to take a few guards to Ji Gang's mansion to ask for silver.

In the morning, morning, and afternoon, I went three times, and ate three closed doors, Ji Gang was determined not to open the door, and he didn't dare to pay attention to the door when he knocked on it.

Chen Ning returned home to report to Xiao Fan.

Xiao Fan was suddenly furious.

"Don't open the door? What is the rationale for this? Ji Gang, does this guy want to repay the debt? It's against him! ”

Cao Yi sat on the side, his face was extremely distorted, he could do such a thing of extortion so openly and confidently, I am afraid that he was the first since the founding of the Ming Dynasty.

Chen Ning saw that his brother-in-law was angry, and he also felt that his face was gloomy, he couldn't do this little thing for his brother-in-law, how could he be reused in the future?

At that moment, Chen Ning rolled up his sleeves and showed a long-lost expression: "Brother-in-law, I will take my brothers to the treasury of the military department to get a door-slamming pile, I don't believe that a mere Jifu is more difficult to attack than the Beiping City Gate!" ”

Cao Yi wiped his sweat: "............"

Xiao Fan nodded approvingly: "It's good for young people to be motivated, and it is worth encouraging, but we are not attacking the city, we are collecting debts......

"The principle is the same, they all salute first and then soldiers, white knives in, red knives out! If you don't pay back, you'll die! Chen Ning said with a hideous face.

Xiao Fan praised: "What a good guy who draws inferences! ”

Chen Ningxi said: "Brother-in-law, then I'll take the brothers!" ”

"No way!" Xiao Fan shook his head and said: "Debt collection is debt collection, but it can't be too ugly, it's not good to fight and kill, and Ji Gang is not a soft persimmon, forcing him, if he simply tears his face with me, everyone's face will not look good......"

Chen Ning hurriedly said: "Then what should I do?" This hob meat can't be used yet? ”

Xiao Fan thought for a while and said, "Can you write?" ”

"Can write!"

"You get a bucket of red paint, bring a large brush, and write a few words at the door of Ji Gang's house, well, just write 'Debt repayment, it is justified', 'If you don't pay back the money, burn your whole family'...... Wait, anyway, write a few harsh words that threaten him......"

Cao Yi and Chen Ning were puzzled: "Is this useful?" ”

Xiao Fan smiled, in the previous life, the loan sharks in Hong Kong films and movies did this, which is somewhat useful.

"I don't know if it's useful, anyway, I have to sit on this matter, so that everyone in the capital knows that Ji Gang owes me money, and he can't rely on it if he wants to......"

Imagining a large area of ghost-like red lacquer debt collection characters in front of Ji Gang's Mansion, Cao Yi couldn't help but fight a few cold wars.

At this moment, he finally remembered that ruining people's reputation is the strength of this grandfather...... Chen Ning rushed away, Cao Yi sat in the inner hall, with a thoughtful expression on his face, and didn't say a word for a long time...... "Brother Cao, what are you thinking?" Xiao Fan's smile is always so kind, as warm as a spring breeze.

Cao Yi rubbed his nose and said slowly: "I'm wondering, have I ever borrowed silver from you before......"

Xiao Fan, a British prince who has always been known as a low-key official, once again became high-profile and became the focus of discussion among the officials and people in Beijing after dinner.

The deputy commander of Jinyiwei made Ji Gang somehow owe Xiao Fan hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, and he still can't pay out, so the guards of the Guogong Mansion helped the Guogong Mansion collect debts, and the red paint brush was written all over the entire circle of walls outside Ji Gang's Mansion, and the content was very yellow and violent...... Now the Beijing division is lively, the New Year, the crowds of people outside the Ji Gang Mansion, happily watching the circle of red paint swear words and cruel words with the atmosphere of postmodern art, the front of the Ji Mansion is simply more lively than the Confucius Temple's market, there are many onlookers, all kinds of vendors are like sharks that smell the smell of blood, and they also flock to come, so the stalls in front of the Ji Mansion, the jugglers, the rivers and lakes are performing, the quarrels, the fights, the adults laugh, the children cry...... The crowds are full of people, cars and horses, and a large flea market is alive.

Xiao Fan's bad move inadvertently stimulated the economic and domestic demand of the Beijing Division.

Chen Ning with more than 100 Jinyi Wei brothers stood outside the door of Jifu, his hand pressed the handle of the knife and pointed to the door and scolded the street, Chen Ning was born in a merchant, and his eloquence was naturally deep in his father's true heritage, and the scolding lasted for two hours without repeating it, what was ugly and scolding, and the scolding was so hearty that the onlookers listened to it with enthusiasm, and the crowd erupted from time to time with a burst of applause, and everyone's mood suddenly rose to the extreme.

The guards of the Ji Mansion hid in the door, gritting their steel teeth, after all, they didn't dare to go out to drive them away, let alone find Chen Ning's theory, on status, they are from the mansion of the grandfather of the country, and they are several levels higher than their own master, in terms of power, they are the legitimate commanders of the Jinyi Guard, and their own master is still his subordinate, and the reason is ...... It's the grandson who owes the money, how can it be justified?

So, the guards of the Ji Mansion could only have a humiliated expression, and they didn't dare to let go of the fart outside the door, and let Chen Ning outside the mansion jump to their feet and scold.

After the people crawled to Ji Gang to report, Ji Gang's head was as if the bronze bell of the temple had been hit hard, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

It's a good hand to transfer flowers and jade! Obviously, it was Wang Yu who owed Xiao Fan the silver, why did the debtor become him Ji Gang in the blink of an eye? Who to talk to?

Ji Gang shook his head vigorously, was silent for a long time, and a few words burst out of his mouth: "Prepare a sedan chair, enter the palace!" ”

The subordinate received the order.

Ji Gang then added: "...... Pull strings. ”

The Palace of Manhwa.

Zhu Yunwen looked at Xiao Fan who didn't say a word in front of him with a little headache.

The two most favored ministers actually made a debt collection storm, and this year was really lively...... Xiao Fan raised his head and glanced at Zhu Yunwen, his brows furrowed slightly: "Your Majesty's complexion is not very good?" ”

Zhu Yunwen sighed: "It's the New Year, I and Concubine De...... That is, Huang Ying was idle in the palace and played leaf cards, and she lost badly......"

"The whole world is yours, it doesn't matter how miserable you lose, it won't make Your Majesty's face so disgraced......" Xiao Fan was suddenly startled when he said and lost his voice: "You shouldn't lose the whole country to her as a bet, right?" ”

Zhu Yunwen glared at him fiercely: "Am I so mediocre?" ”

Sighing deeply, Zhu Yunwen cried and said with a sad face: "The bet is not a country, it's a sexual affair, she loses, whatever posture I use to hey with her, I lose, whatever she does to me......"

Xiao Fan's face was suddenly full of sympathy: "How many times has Your Majesty snorted?" ”

Zhu Yunwen's face twitched fiercely, and he silently stretched out his thumb and index finger to gesticulate.

Xiao Fan was shocked: "Eight times? Your Majesty is a god and a man! ”

Zhu Yunwen sighed faintly: "I feel so soft now......

Xiao Fan nodded very understandingly, eight times a night, it was difficult to ......think about it without being weak, "Women, like eggs, look very hard ...... appearance"

Zhu Yunwen said: "The inside is very soft? ”

“…… No, it's yellow on the inside. ”

“…… Reasonable. ”

…………………… After chatting a few words, Zhu Yunwen rubbed his eyebrows with a little headache, and said, "Xiao Shiyu, it is said that Ji Gang owes you 200,000 taels of silver?" ”

"Yes, it's just a little money."

"Alas...... Xiao waiter, let him go, people entered the palace in the morning, hugged my thighs and cried all morning, you know, my legs are very soft, and I almost didn't fall to my death......"

"Since Your Majesty has opened his mouth, the minister will be generous, reduce it by half, and let Ji Gang pay back 100,000 taels so-so......"

"Xiao Shi reads righteousness and looks at money as dung, and true righteous people are also ......," Zhu Yunwen praised sincerely.
