In the study of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

At this time, Wang Gang was concentrating on writing, and there were two people standing on his left and right sides.

One is Dongfang Feng, deputy director of the Municipal Yi Division.

The other was tall and thin, richly dressed, and had two walnuts coiled in his hand.

Judging from the quality of this walnut light, its value is enough to buy a small garden in Kyoto Castle.

He is Qian Kuan, and he is in charge of nearly half of the Qian Zhuang of the Daxuan Dynasty.

He used to be rich enough to rival the country, but since the city suddenly launched this interest-based money bank policy in the past few days, everything has changed, and his assets have shrunk by nearly one-third in one day.

"Prime Minister, Shen Xin and Ye Xu, those two guys launched an interest-bearing bank, which can make me miserable, you say this... What should I do? Seeing that Wang Gang didn't speak for a long time, Qian Kuan on the side finally became anxious.

Now the influence is not only the money bank in Kyoto, but even the people of many other cities in the Daisen Dynasty have to come to the deposit of the money bank opened by the Yi Division.

If it really comes to that time, you will really be finished.

Therefore, he could only come to Wang Gang to help him.

And Wang Gang didn't seem to pay much attention to Qian Kuan, and wrote by himself.

A moment later.

Wang Gang stopped writing at this time, and after stamping his personal seal from his bosom on the piece of writing just now, he threw it to Dongfang Feng and said: "Take this piece to Yang Xiao, the servant of the household department, and tell him that the treasury has been empty recently, and ask him to find the city to transfer 200,000 taels of silver." ”

"There is also this pair to the military department squire Yu Qianli, and told him that the imperial court needs to reset a batch of weapons, let him transfer 300,000 taels of silver to the city Yi Division, and the Ministry of Rites, in a few days, my emperor will need 100,000 taels to worship his ancestors, let them all go to the city Yi Division to ask for money."

"Also." Wang Gang paused and said: "We must let the people of Daxuan know about these things, I want to see if the people know that their money is finally used on the imperial court, and they will set foot in the city of Yisi!" ”

As soon as Wang Gang's plan came out, Dongfang Feng and Qian Kuan on the side secretly shouted in their hearts!

"Prime minister's clever plan, what a clever plan!" Dongfang Feng and Qian Kuan slapped Wang Gang's ass very tacitly.

Wang Gang waved his hand and motioned for them to go out.

In essence, Wang Gang didn't want to help them, he just wanted to test Ye Xu's ability.

Outside the Prime Minister's Mansion, Dongfang Feng glanced at Qian Kuan, and then fiddled with the three calligraphy and paintings in his hand and said, "Boss Qian, how much do you think these calligraphy and paintings in my hand should be worth?" ”

Qian Kuan, who often dealt with these court officials, naturally understood what Dongfang Feng meant, and forced out a smile and said: "Lord Dongfang, you say the number, the little one doesn't make a bargain!" ”

"Hmm." Qian Kuan nodded with satisfaction, and then gestured to three: "One calligraphy and painting is 10,000 taels, and three are 30,000 taels!" ”

Hearing this Dongfang Feng open his mouth so loudly, Qian Kuan couldn't help but tremble with anger.

What is the concept of 30,000 taels of silver?

If this money is wide and only takes the court for the rest of his life, I am afraid that he will not eat or drink until he dies, and he will not be able to earn so much!

But now Qian Kuan has no other way, in order for his industry to continue to operate, 30,000 taels of silver should still be spent.

"Okay, I'll arrange for someone to deliver the silver to the lord's mansion immediately! I also hope that the matter that has just been delivered by the Prime Minister, Lord Dongfang will have a lot of trouble. Qian Kuan said to Wang Gang with a dry smile.

"You are stupid, you directly take 30,000 taels of silver to my house, in case it is seen by others, isn't my honest and honest image gone? In my opinion, you can open an account for me in your bank, and deposit 30,000 taels of silver in it, and if I need it, I can take it myself. Dongfang Feng said.

"Okay, good, it's still Dongfang-sama who thinks about it!" Qian Kuan looked respectful to Dongfang Feng on the surface, but in his heart, he had already scolded this damn corrupt official thousands of times.

The main hall of the city.

Shen Xin and Ye Xu were worried about the silver borrowing order issued by the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Crime, and the Ministry of Rites.

"Sure enough, it's a big tree, a big tree!" Shen Xin rubbed his eyebrows and said with a wry smile: "These three pieces of paper actually cost our city Yisi 600,000 taels of silver!" It's ridiculous! ”

"Director Shen, can we not give it?" Ye Xu asked Shen Xin very simply and rudely.

After all, in Ye Xu's opinion, this is just a silver borrowing order from other departments of the Daxuan Dynasty, and it is not a silver borrowing order from the emperor, and the City Yi Division fully understands and refuses.

"Huh." Hearing Ye Xu's childish question, the wry smile on Shen Xin's face deepened: "Refuse? On what grounds do we refuse? No money? Now who doesn't know that our city has absorbed millions of deposits from the people? Or are we afraid that they won't pay it back? Yes, they just don't plan to pay it back! But they say they will return it next month, so how can I use that reason? And their reasons are all righteous and strict, if I don't give it, I'm afraid that the three of them will unite to join me in front of my emperor! ”

"Director Shen, Lord Ye, why are your brows furrowed?" At this time, Dongfang Feng walked in from outside the door with a villainous look.

Then Dongfang Feng picked up the three borrowing orders on the table and pretended to look at them carefully.

"Director Shen, what do you say this should be? I'll just say, we shouldn't have opened this big Xuan Qian Zhuang in the first place, you see now, we don't borrow it, we don't borrow it! It's so depressing! ”

Shen Xin looked at Dongfang Feng with a gloating look, and wished to give him two big mouth pockets immediately.

However, he is a scholar anyway, adhering to the principle of being able to force him not to do anything as much as possible, Shen Xin still said to Dongfang Feng very patiently: "Deputy Director Dongfang, this matter can be handled with Lord Ye, don't bother with it, you should stay where it is cool!" ”

"Really?" Dongfang Feng put down the three borrowing orders and smiled evilly at Shen Xin and Ye Xu: "Yes, I should also go out for a walk, but I can't go out now!" I'll tell you! Now there are a lot of people gathered outside our city, some are muttering to withdraw money, some are muttering to take the lives of you and Lord Ye's dogs, ah, no, human lives, so..."

"Director, let's go and see for yourself!"

Hearing this, Shen Xin and Ye Xu stood up suddenly.

What Ye Xu was most worried about finally happened.

Outside the gate of the city, there are crowds of people, and there are all people at a glance.

"The city is easy to pay back my hard-earned money! Damn, you actually took Lao Tzu's money to raise the group of rubbish in the military department! Aren't I paying enough taxes? You're not bullying honest people! ”

"Yes, yes, yes! If Shen Xin and Ye Xu don't give us justice today, let's go to the emperor to sue the emperor! ”

"Yes, yes, sue the royal court!"
