These ten big businessmen didn't know each other, and they were all county lords or Zhao Biao who contacted them alone. In other words, if the county lord has 500,000 taels of family wealth of unknown origin and distributes it to ten merchants, it is 50,000 taels per person. In the eyes of these big businessmen, the county lord only has 50,000 taels of silver.

What's the difference, or what is the different perception of these businessmen?

The county lord has 50,000 taels of silver that can't be said? Oh, that's nothing, is it worth mentioning such a little silver?

But if the county lord puts this silver in the hands of a certain person, then this person will think: The county lord has 500,000 taels of silver? It's terrible, isn't it, what did you do to get so much silver?

Of course, in fact, a county honorable person with one hundred or twenty thousand taels of silver is actually not rich at all in the eyes of merchants. For example, Jiang Huan has a total of 200,000 taels of county silver in his hands, but it is very common for Jiang Huan, and the most he has heard of in this industry is two million taels, and it is also at the county order level.

So it's really nothing in his hands.

But the degree of vigilance, of course, cannot be ignored just because there is not much silver. Jiang Huan can understand that the skill of the county lord is incomparable to that of a small businessman. He had enough reason to believe that the county respected that he wanted to let his business collapse and let him die, just in the snap of his fingers. In Bazhong City, no one can escape the eyes of the county lord.

"Adults, the little ones think that the rumors outside don't need to be ignored, and the adults are clear. Jiang Huan was relieved, in fact, he really didn't believe the rumors outside, he felt that if it was really as the rumors said, then the money that the county lord put in him would be more than that, at least several times more. Otherwise, there is no need to take such a big risk for such a little silver.

The county lord looked at Jiang Huan, took a few sips of the teacup, and thought, I let you know everything, wouldn't it be self-defeating? Now you ten businessmen must think so. This official can be regarded as letting you know a lot, but there is no way, if you want to share the risk, you have to take the risk that more people know a little bit about.

Whether it's good or bad depends on how strong the opponent is. If the enemy is strong enough to put these threads together, that's a bad thing. If the enemy is not strong enough and can only find one or two points, it will be very safe for the county lord.

From this point of view, in fact, it is understandable that the county honorable chose to do this.

Next, in this mansion, in just three days, the county lord made an appointment with all ten confidants and businessmen.

The businessmen were unanimous in their confidence in the county. It is said that the prestige of Lord Yi Xianzun will not be affected by such brainless rumors.

The county thought to himself, I really don't have to worry about it in Bazhong City, but it may not be the case when I go to Chengdu.

However, the attitude of these businessmen made the county lord more confident. Ordinary people don't talk about it for the time being, as long as they are rich people who think like this, it means that the situation in Chengdu is similar. Those who can speak and intervene are people with status, not ordinary people. People in the middle and upper classes don't believe this kind of rumor, at least in Chengdu, this rumor will definitely not spread too much.

Unlike in Bazhong City, where it is so big, rumors are easy to spread.

In the previous 20 official cases, Chen Letian and they were very cunning in taking advantage of the emotions of the people. As soon as the people heard that there were so many officials colluding with bandits in Bazhong City, they were eager to tear these officials apart. Everyone is full of righteous indignation, in that case, the county must not be suppressed, it should conform to the will of the people, and it can only comply with the will of the people.

But when you go to Chengdu, how can you conform to the public opinion? Can you borrow so much public opinion? Can you still mobilize thousands of people to gather at the governor's palace?

Let's not talk about how the Governor's Mansion will react, let's talk about the Shu Palace, what the King of Shu is most afraid of is the gathering of the people, once this situation occurs, the King of Shu will never allow it, is this to gather a crowd to rebel?

The county lord knows very well that Chengdu not only has the Governor's Mansion of Bashu Road, but also has a Shu Prince's Mansion.

These two parties, who are not related to each other on weekdays, are opponents whether they are public or private. It's not a life-and-death rival, and it's definitely not a heart.

Otherwise, the court will be watching.

And Chen Letian and they will definitely not go to the Shu Palace, and the Shu Mansion will not take care of them at all, so they can only go to the Governor's Mansion. In the capital, I am used to suing this and that, and I am naturally used to suing the court. In the land of Bashu, the governor's palace is the highest yamen directly under the imperial court.

"I guess the county lord is taking care of the aftermath, he seems to be out of line, haha. This morning, Chen Letian got up as usual at dawn and practiced boxing in the yard, Liu Daming stood next to him and talked to Chen Letian while watching. Speaking of what the county is doing now, Chen Letian said with a smile.

Liu Daming said: "Don't take it lightly, the battle between the master of the Xia Realm and you was almost ... Now the county order that can't guarantee that the dog jumps over the wall in a hurry will have even more frenzied actions! I really can't imagine that a Xia Realm cultivator can be bought by silver, this is something I never imagined. ”

Chen Letian walked towards the grinding disc in front of him with a fist, the speed was extremely fast, but he stopped an inch away from the stone mill at the peak of the fist, and he went from being unable to see clearly with the naked eye to stopping and not moving for a moment.

Liu Daming even felt that he saw that the grinding disc was slightly off. He didn't know if he was dazzled or if the grinding disc was really moving.

Chen Letian said: "You can't buy it in the summer realm, you have been up and down in the world for many years, what can't you think of?"

Liu Daming shook his head: "How many cultivators in the summer realm can there be in the entire Bashu Dao? In the spring realm, you can eat and drink spicy food in the Bashu Dao, and if you are a rich businessman who cares for the home, then you can be enshrined, why do you have to do this kind of work?"

Chen Letian withdrew his fist, took a deep breath, slowly exhaled, and said, "It's not you who said that. Walked to the side and picked up a towel to wipe it: "Whether it is summer or spring, they are all people, as long as they are people, they all have desires." This desire includes laziness as well as spending money. Do you know what I'm interested in?"

"The proprietor means that they are human beings, so even among the Xia Realm cultivators, there are such scum. But what I mean is that they can choose a simpler, easier way to make money and live the good life they want, so why take risks? Liu Daming said.
