Chapter 269: The Hardest Days for Tang Dynasty Officials

This question gave Ma Zhou a big headache, if you say yes, Li Er will tell you that something so powerful can only be exclusive to the royal family.

If you can't say it, then Li Er just said that this thing is not allowed to be spread in the future.

"Your Majesty, I think that physics and chemistry are the things that are most needed in the world."

Ma Zhou avoided the light, and directly hit the west, and in an instant, Li Er's eyes became strange when he looked at Ma Zhou.

"Ma Zhou, you have become sleek, and you will be fined for one month!"

Ma Zhou felt like a fly in his heart, sure enough, sure enough, it's not that it's not there, the time has not come, His Majesty is really making excuses and deducting his salary.

Lu Zushang said that if he didn't, it would be gone, Li Er had been sullen for a while, and he would fine others at every turn, and some people in the DPRK and Central Committee could no longer sit still.

If there is an industry in the family, it is not particularly serious, the worst thing is that those clean officials, there is no income in the family, the family opens their mouths and waits for dinner, and the salary is gone, how can this be good.

In the midst of the black market, a sneaky shadow appeared.

"Shopkeeper, exchange money."

In the black market, there are a lot of shopkeepers, but each shopkeeper and each shop operates different projects.

"In exchange for what?"

"Hehe, my lord is a household secretary, and he was paid a salary by His Majesty, and there is a letter with an adult's own handwriting."

The shopkeeper smiled with compassion on his face, "Hubu Shangshu, hehe, such a big official, he is in charge of the world's money, and he will make trouble?" ”

"Hey, of course it's difficult for your lord now, Your Majesty looks at it so closely, and there is not much money and food in Datang, my lord said, 10,000 taels of silver, and I will return it in full after a month."

Looking at the obscene hidden person in front of him, the shopkeeper carefully examined the letters and seals.

There's nothing wrong with it, it's the big seal of the household, and the autograph of the household book, highlighted, this person seems to be greedy.

"Hehe, can you still be on it?"

"What are you kidding, my adults will use it urgently."

"Hehe, yes, but after a month, the daily interest rate will be five percent."

"Huh?" The servant-looking man was a little surprised, "And interest?" ”

The shopkeeper doesn't talk nonsense, "If you can't borrow, don't borrow!" ”

The person who borrowed money was Zhu Yeqing, and borrowing money was Qi Ping's method of temptation.

Your Majesty has recently fined hundreds of officials to believe more, and many officials have begun to borrow money from the black market, but it is easy to take the money in the black market, and if you want to pay it back, I am afraid that it will be even more difficult, and the interest rate is extremely high.

So Qi Ping came up with an idea to borrow money in the black market in the name of Gao Liang to test the bottom line of the black market.

So many officials came to borrow money, and Gao Liang also came, it's not impossible.

What's more, Gao Liang had just been killed, extremely secretive, according to Ma Zhou's methods, no one dared to reveal the slightest bit of information, so with the mentality of giving it a try, Zhu Yeqing disguised himself as a servant and appeared in the black market.

"That's it, borrow! My family remembers you, and I don't give you face! ”

Zhu Yeqing looked angry and devastated and pretended to be very similar.

The shopkeeper was not annoyed, "Hehe, the bigger the official, the higher the interest, otherwise, in the future, cats and dogs will come to the black market to borrow money, and if they can't pay it back, it will be bad." ”

Zhu Yeqing sighed, "If you really can't do it, what will you do?" ”

When the shopkeeper heard this question, he naturally wanted to intimidate, "If you can't pay it back, you can be lenient, but there will be a lot of interest and benefits, but if that person is determined not to pay it back, hehe, we are not vegetarians here." ”

Zhu Yeqing was even more curious, of course, this is also the task arranged by Qi Ping, clichΓ©.

"Hehe, then what means will you use, shopkeeper, you are all capable people, I just want to see and understand."

The shopkeeper's eyes were above the top, and he said lightly at this time: "The bigger this person's official position, the more places he can threaten, in our black market, the most feared are these high-ranking officials, after all, they have a lot of handles, if he doesn't pay back, then exchange it for other things." ”

Zhu Yeqing had already gotten the information he wanted, the black market had a connection with the officials, and Qi Ping didn't dare to believe it at first, and Hou Ye couldn't believe it, but at this moment, Zhu Yeqing believed it.

Just like Hou Ye said, if the black market has the handle of officials, then any official can become a minion of the black market, in the court of the Tang Dynasty, some inconspicuous corners are overturned, until every solid place in Chang'an is left with black caves, which is the embankment of thousands of miles destroyed in the anthill.

Hou Ye is really powerful, this can be imagined.

"Hehe, then I'll thank the shopkeeper for my family."

Dropping the seal letter, Zhu Yeqing took the silver and threw it on the carriage behind him.

And not long after Zhu Yeqing left, the shopkeeper suddenly picked up the letter, "Huh? This highlight has not heard from him for a long time, how could he suddenly write to borrow money? ”

"No, 10,000 taels is a lot of money, and the Lord has to know about it."

There are too many such businesses in the black market these days, so that the shopkeepers are numb, after all, it is impossible to forge the seal of each official's department, the seal of this household is real, and the highlight seal is also true, and this trace is also conclusive.

But highlighting this person, how can I feel strange.

Under the black market, an angry roar came, "You idiot, Gao Liang is dead!" ”

The seal was thrown directly into the water by a man in a cloak, and then an astonishing scene occurred.

The seal letter in the water actually began to float and split, and in an instant, the face of the shopkeeper, who had accepted the loan from Gao Liang and had already spent 10,000 taels of silver, changed dramatically.

This seal letter was cut out word by word from the highlighted handwritten letter! Scattered in the water, like the petals of a flower.

Suddenly, his face turned pale.

"You don't need to live anymore!"

"Since the Great Seal of the Household Department is real, then I will ask the Household Department for money in the future!"

The water in the culvert is turbulent, and the slightest trace of blood will soon be purified without a sound.

As for the corpses? Isn't it easy for someone in the black market to like to eat people?

As for this money, it naturally came to Li Hui, and Li Hui and Qi Ping were already thinking of some countermeasures.

"Master Hou, why don't we continue to borrow money from the black market in this way?"

Li Hui shook his head, "There is actually a little bad thing today, that is, in the name of highlight, although this highlight is gone, and many people don't know this news, but it is inevitable that someone will know, so I'm afraid this method won't work." ”

"What then?"

"Find Xu Shiji, Cheng Biting Jin, Niu Jinda, Tang Jian, Eldest Sun Wuji, as well as Zhang Liang, Wei Chigong also got involved, and Li Jing also got it, in their name."

Li Hui scared Qi Ping half to death when he opened his mouth.

"Master Hou, isn't this appropriate? These are the princes of the Tang Dynasty, and their reputation is very important! Will they be willing? ”

Li Hui sneered, "They are naturally willing, who doesn't want to take money for nothing?" Besides, even if the people in the black market want to ask for accounts, they don't dare to ask for them, as long as they can lend it, this is a bad debt! ”

"Master Hou, how much do you borrow?"

"Hehe, it's not much, fifty thousand taels per person is enough."

Calculated evenly, this is 350,000 taels of silver, which is not a small amount.

"You go to them with my own letters! It must be convincing, hehe, that the black market scene will soon be good. ”

The black market during the day and at night are completely different, and the people who come in the daytime also have some ulterior secrets, if at night, there are many people, and during the day, it is sparsely populated here, and it is not easy to attract people's attention

Only this time, they are all small flat heads, tightly wrapped, and they come to borrow money.

One by one, they took out the tokens of Guogong, which made people think about it in an instant.

Three hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver is simply an astronomical amount.

Underground in the black market, the king of the black market, is now thinking about it.

"Lord, all the people who appear today are the princes of the country!" The guard on the side wore a mask and slowly reminded.

"Guogong, it's interesting, they will be short of money, but their tokens are all here, and they are all people with heads and faces in the Tang Dynasty, so it shouldn't be a big problem."

It's true that he thinks so, but what he didn't expect was that Li Hui was commanding behind these people, and as soon as Li Hui opened his mouth, he didn't have to pay back the money, and these bandits in the early years jumped one by one and had to borrow as much as one million.

Qi Ping went to persuade one by one, so that these red-eyed men understood what it means to put a long line and catch a big fish.

Cheng Biting Jin and Niu Jinda almost brought troops to the black market to ask for money.

Yu Chigong raised his eyebrows, "They have so much money, why don't they divide Lao Tzu a little?" ”

"Even if you don't divide Lao Tzu a little, you can divide the Tang treasury a little."

"Lao Tzu is fighting outside, the wind comes and the rain comes and goes, they are good, engaging in this kind of harmful deed!"

Three hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver were sent to the homes of the various princes, and when these people saw the silver, they smiled.

Black eats black, who wouldn't?

And when Li Hui had just received Qi Ping's report, Li Chengqian ran over.

"Teacher, it's not good, Cheng Chumo is unconscious."

"Really unconscious?"

Li Chengqian nodded vigorously.

It's only been less than a day and a night, and that's it, it seems that the oppressive force of the little black house is too strong.

Li Hui also came, in the small black room, Cheng Chumo was not unconscious, but in a trance, the nervous Cheng Chumo saw the bright light, and pounced like a madman, if it wasn't for Gai Suwen's strength, Cheng Chumo would definitely overturn Li Chengqian who was holding the lantern.

"Water! I want water! ”

Li Hui smiled: "Cheng Qian, remember!" ”

"After being in the dark for a long time, there will always be a subconscious lack of water, and then the human body activates the protective defense mechanism in order to hoard water for famine and disaster, in this case, human instinct will triumph over reason, human animal nature will triumph over human nature, the mind is chaotic, and the body is left with only two instincts to eat and drink, and the subconscious mind to live."
