Chapter 562: Eradication
The carts were full of gold and silver.
These gold and silver, at least for ordinary people, are almost unthinkable.
After a lifetime of hard work, the family's savings are only a few taels of silver.
Available here...... but the silver and gold were loaded in carts.
And this carriage and horse are not endless.
Many of those who have seen have their eyes straightened.
This...... This......
There is no longer righteous indignation.
But he only looked at the cars and horses that passed by.
The captains along the way looked very nervous, and seemed to look like people who wanted to hijack gold and silver.
Finally, someone cursed: "Li Guo's pig and dog are not as good as things!" β
There are also scholars who said: "Don't believe it, Li Pingshi is reluctant to even change the sedan chair, all year round, but four regular clothes, how can there be so much gold and silver, this must be ...... It must be planted by Jinyiwei! β
"I also want Jinyiwei to frame me, but with so much silver, even if it is left at my house for a day, I will take a look at it beautifully, and I will be willing to die."
"Hahaha........."
The crowd laughed.
"This damn thing should be raided and exterminated!" Someone shouted in disgust.
Thereupon...... Fang Cai's grief and indignation turned into resentment.
And those who read the book saw that the situation was not good, and they had already slipped away.
β¦β¦
The Emperor of the Apocalypse sat in this simple Li family's study, and couldn't help but sigh.
It's really simple here, and all the furnishings look shabby.
However, there are many books, and there are many calligraphy books written by Li Guo himself.
It's nothing more than something like "indifferent and far-reaching".
The Emperor of the Apocalypse stared at these inscriptions and couldn't help but say, "How did he do it, on the one hand, he was writing and chanting, and on the other hand...... Collect countless treasures? If I had learned half of this Li Guo's skills, I would have been a saint like Yao Shun now. β
Zhang Jing said: "The more greedy people think about it, the more they care about these." β
The Emperor of the Apocalypse couldn't help but sigh with emotion at this time: "When I came in, I almost believed his nonsense, but fortunately Deng Qing found the flaw in time, otherwise, I would still feel ashamed of him." Such a person is a member of the Cabinet of Ministers......"
Zhang Jingyi said: "The minister thinks that this is an opportunity. β
"Opportunity?" The Emperor of the Apocalypse's gaze moved away from the book on the wall and fell on Zhang Jingyi.
Zhang Jing said: "Your Majesty has not thought about it, Li Gong...... No, Li Guo is so greedy, but everyone praises him for his clean sleeves, what is the reason for this? β
"You go on."
Zhang Jingyi continued: "This shows that most of the time, Li Guo is clean with his sleeves, otherwise...... If a person goes around accepting goods, he doesn't know how many people will know about it, how can he have such a good reputation? β
The Emperor of the Apocalypse held his chin, looked at Zhang Jingyi fixedly, and said, "Then what do you mean......"
"What the minister means is that there are ninety-nine people who come to give gifts to Li Guo, and Li Guo does not accept them at all, so let people send them back. He could ...... Only one or two people were accepted. β
The Emperor of the Apocalypse was surprised: "One or two? Only received a gift from one or two people, and there were also seven million taels of silver? β
What an unbelievable thing!
Zhang Jingyi smiled bitterly: "This is the minister's inference, because the minister did let Jinyiwei check him before, but the final result was...... Almost no traces were found! β
"Chen thought, this is definitely not our negligence, then the only reason is that Li Guo is incorruptible when he is ninety percent old. There must be very few people who really give him benefits and are willing to accept them. β
The Emperor of the Apocalypse couldn't help but gasp.
If this Li State is greedy and open-minded, the Emperor of the Apocalypse will not be shocked.
Because...... The fact is that there is indeed so much gold and silver piled up here.
He took a thousand, ten thousand...... It all makes sense.
But if it is...... If you only charge a few people, or even just one person, you can get seven million taels of silver!
That's what really scary!
Buying a bachelor's degree......
Dare to spend this silver.
So...... What are the benefits behind this?
And how to imagine the scale of this interest?
So the Emperor of the Apocalypse couldn't help but say, "What do you mean...... Someone bought Li Guo and used it for them, and it cost seven million taels? β
Zhang Jingyi nodded without hesitation: "Yes." β
The Emperor of the Apocalypse suddenly walked in a clump like an ant on a hot pot with his hands behind his back.
He furrowed his eyebrows and said, "Why are you willing to pay such a big price?" β
Zhang Jingyi patiently explained: "The only possibility is that the benefits they want to make far exceed seven million taels...... Even...... The minister is thinking...... Maybe...... They may have bought more than one Li Guo. β
"After all, Li Guo is a scholar, although he is a Zaifu, but he is far inferior to other officials in charge of secular affairs when it comes to providing convenience...... So...... The minister's judgment is that the cost of bribery alone is seven million taels of silver, and even far more than that. β
"How is that possible!" The Emperor of the Apocalypse looked at Zhang Jing in disbelief: "Could it be that those people are from the Kaishan Hall?" β
"It's not about opening a good church, it's about ...... The benefits they have obtained may be several times that of the seven million taels, or even ten times or a hundred times......"
Hearing this, the Emperor of the Apocalypse sat down and muttered: "Careless, really careless, I always thought that I had saved so much gold and silver in my inner money now, and the scale was as much as 200 million, which was already amazing." If it's really as Qing said, wouldn't I still be a poor ghost? β
"You can't say that." Zhang Jingyi couldn't help but smile, and then said: "Your Majesty, we can't look at the problem in black and white, Your Majesty is already richer than the ministers, and our ironclad ship plan ...... Now I have started work in Lushun, and I have recruited a lot of craftsmen to go, but I found that ...... The wages seem to have been miscalculated, and there are ...... A lot of materials...... At the beginning, the minister was too naΓ―ve, and then he found out that he relied on 50 million taels ...... Impractical ...... at all"
"What do you mean?" The Emperor of the Apocalypse looked at Zhang Jingyi vigilantly.
Zhang Jing said: "It's nothing, it's just that the minister is worried...... In the end, the secret plan of His Majesty and his ministers ended up being a half-pull, and when the time came, so much silver was thrown in, but in the end it was ......"
"Okay." The Emperor of the Apocalypse wanted to jump up, and then said: "Your hand is the set of the Ministry of Industry to repair the palace, first say one million taels, and then slowly add ......"
Zhang Jingyi was shocked: "Really? β
I didn't expect ...... The ancients would have played this hand a long time ago?
Groove ...... Or am I too young!
The Emperor of the Apocalypse began to be anxious again, so he said, "You just said it, how much more do you want to add?" β
Looking at the ugly face of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, Zhang Jing said stiffly: "I'm afraid that every year, at least two million taels ......will be added."
The Emperor of the Apocalypse smoked seven tricks: "Every year? β
Zhang Jing said: "Your Majesty can think about the benefits......
The Emperor of the Apocalypse's eyes were on fire, and he said, "I can't think of the good!" β
Zhang Jingyi: "......"
The Emperor of the Apocalypse was angry for a long time, and finally said: "You draw up a charter, how much is it, write it clearly, and don't fool me in the future." β
"It's not fooling." Zhang Jingyi explained: "Everyone who does this is like this. β
Emperor of the Apocalypse: "......"
But slowly, the Emperor of the Apocalypse's face softened, and said: "You are right, this matter, you have to go down the vine, this is a good opportunity, to dig out the people behind him from Li Guo's body...... Behind him, who is it, how did he get such a big benefit, and how many people participated...... Seven million taels of silver, send it when you say it, bribe my bachelor, what these people are doing, there must be a lot of schemes, find out, you must investigate it thoroughly. β
Zhang Jingyi immediately understood what the Emperor of the Apocalypse meant.
He gets money from the Emperor of the Apocalypse, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse gets money from some people.
In this way, a perfect ecological chain is formed.
Zhang Jing suddenly said: "The minister will start to investigate today, Your Majesty can rest assured, Jinyi Wei will definitely go to the soup." β
Zhang Jingyi's gaze is extremely firm!
The Emperor of the Apocalypse immediately said: "There is also Deng Qing's family, I want to come...... Deng Qing's family is really hard work! He is different from you, and you are always thinking about the money in my inner pocket. As for him, he never thinks about it, but he always helps me, and moves all the silver to the palace without regrets, and I need such a talent the most. β
"The most important thing is that he is dedicated to his life, and at such an age, he can't care about marrying a wife and having children. Or...... Tell him about it. β
"This ......" Zhang Jing said: "Of course, it is all up to Your Majesty." β
The Emperor of the Apocalypse pondered for a moment, then said, "Who do you think is suitable?" β
Zhang Jing thought about it for a while, and then said, "Why don't you go and inquire first when the minister arrives?" β
"It's fine." The Emperor of the Apocalypse smiled: "All in all, you can't treat him badly. β
The two of them finished their discussion.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse felt that it was not interesting to continue to stay here, so he went out of the study.
The hundred officials were already waiting here, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse waved his hand and said, "Drive back to the palace!" β
So, the ministers drove out of the Li family with the Emperor of the Apocalypse.
Zhang Jingyi led the Jinyi guards to go up and down the official school to the middle gate to send them off.
And outside the Li family, the people who have done good things are almost gone.
Sending the Emperor of the Apocalypse away, Zhang Jing pressed the handle of the knife, suddenly pulled his face, and then shouted: "Listen to the order." β
"Yes." All the official schools cheered up and responded one by one.
Zhang Jing said: "First, these days, we should pay special attention to the mansions of the hundred officials in the capital, as well as their nearby mansions, to see if there is any change, maybe, someone and Li Guo are also hiding gold and silver in this way, at this time, the thief is weak-hearted, busy wanting to 'move', maybe, he can catch a few big fish." β
"Yes."
"Second: Immediately start interrogating Li Guo...... His family, don't rush to kill first, start with these people in Li Guo first! β
"Yes!"
