Chapter 236: Telling the Truth

Some of them are in a hurry, and they are even already gritting their teeth, wanting to find a chance to wait for the time when they will make a move, and they will be the first to solve Zhou Yang.

After all, in their eyes now, Zhou Yang is more hateful than those corrupt officials.

No matter how corrupt officials say that they are really villains, they are indeed extorting money from the hands of the people, and it is normal for the people to hate them.

But Zhou Yang and those corrupt officials are another matter, I didn't expect this Royal Highness the prince to be a hypocrite.

Just now, these people still wanted to save this great good man, but it turned out that they were the same thing.

"100,000 taels of silver, it seems that you haven't been idle during this time!"

Zhou Yang looked at Lord Liu and said with a smile.

But he smiled and smiled, and suddenly pulled his face down.

The change in his face clearly fell on Lord Liu's eyes, and it immediately made his heart rise again.

Could it be that His Royal Highness the Prince is just talking to himself? In order to account for the amount of money that was taken out of the hands of the people, and then to attack himself?

Lord Liu began to think crankily again in his heart.

He would secretly rejoice in his heart, fortunately he didn't explain everything so realistically, and the 100,000 taels of silver were only a part.

If Zhou Yang might use 100,000 taels of silver as a reason to deal with himself, he still has a reason to say that this is a tax collected in advance.

It is also a common thing to collect taxes in advance, and the amount of 100,000 taels is not particularly huge, and it can still be fooled.

Lord Liu muttered to himself in his heart, and at this time, Zhou Yang said very dissatisfied.

"Lord Liu just uses a mere 100,000 taels of silver, do you want to satisfy the palace?"

"This palace came all the way from the capital to this remote place, is it possible to achieve this 100,000 taels of silver? It doesn't seem like this thing can get your life back. ”

Zhou Yang took the knife and walked in front of Lord Liu as he spoke.

The steel knife slashed at the ground, making a chilling sound.

Lord Liu is now completely confused, he didn't expect that the reason why Zhou Yang turned his face was because of the small amount of silver.

However, Lord Liu would not leak out his old bottom so easily, but shouted loudly there.

"Your Highness Ming Jian, after the little one came here, he really only got 100,000 taels of silver, and the people here were already very poor, and they didn't have much oil and water at all."

"If His Highness the Seventh is willing, the little one can think of other ways, maybe he can get some more."

Lord Liu shouted loudly, so that the people around him could hear it clearly.

His purpose now is very clear, that is, to let these people know that their so-called Zhou Dashan is actually a greedy person for money.

The people are also clucking their teeth now, looking at Zhou Yang viciously, eager to eat Zhou Yang and those corrupt officials alive.

Their hearts were also full of disappointment, and they didn't expect that the good people of Zhou Da, who they had hoped for, would be the same kind of person as these corrupt officials.

Originally, they thought that the current Seventh Prince could make decisions for them, but they didn't expect him to be even more hateful than those corrupt officials.

He is actually too little for 100,000 silver, it seems that if this Seventh Prince is allowed to be the leader in this copper city in the future, the life of ordinary people like them will only become more and more difficult.

Lord Liu could now see the changes in the expressions on the faces of those people very clearly, and he knew that this Seventh Highness had completely aroused the anger of the people.

I'm afraid that the people's expenses for the Seventh Highness are no less than for them now.

After seeing the situation clearly, Lord Liu said to Zhou Yang with a flattering smile.

"Your Highness, if you want silver, you should have said it earlier, why bother so much effort, you see, now those mud-legged people have surrounded us!"

"Otherwise, let the officers and soldiers come over first, and solve these mud legs, and then this copper city will be our sky-high price, and then we will have as much silver as we want?"

Lord Liu said to Zhou Yang, expecting Zhou Yang to listen to him, as long as these names are solved first, let the officers and soldiers come closer, then the initiative can be in his own hands.

Zhou Yang seemed to be moved by Lord Liu's words, and a smile appeared on his face, and he came in front of Lord Liu.

I asked with great interest.

"How much do you want?"

"Then you should tell me, if I let you go, how much silver can you give to this palace?"

"Tell you, this palace is not interested in wasting time with these mud-legged people here, if you want to pick up money from them, you are responsible for doing it, this palace is only responsible for collecting cash."

Zhou Yang has now said this very clearly.

That means let Lord Liu search for these people in front of the stage, and he just needs to sit there and collect the money.

With Zhou Yang's words, Lord Liu was even more sure that Zhou Yang was already on the same line as them.

In fact, I was busy for most of the day, just for the silver.

What's more, they also learned from Zhao Huan that Zhou Yang was in the capital, but he was just an unfavored prince, so he was assigned to the Qin State.

An unfavored prince has no power in his hands, so what else can he pursue? It's not silver yet!

Thinking of this, Lord Liu's heart was also secretly happy.

It seems that even a prince can't escape the temptation of such a mundane thing as silver, in order to let Zhou Yang let them go quickly, Lord Liu is now completely open.

"Your Highness the Seventh, let me tell you the truth, the 100,000 taels of silver I just said is just a part."

"In addition to these 100,000 taels of silver, there are still 200,000 taels from Master Zhang, and after all these mud legs are arrested, they can continue to earn us silver."

"It can be said that now all the people in the entire copper city are making money for your Royal Highness the Seven, and in the future, you will eat a lot of money, as long as we can drink some soup and water, we will be very content."

Listening to what Lord Liu said, the smile on Zhou Yang's face became brighter and brighter.

He didn't expect that these dog officials would loot 300,000 pieces of silver from the hands of the people of Tongcheng in just one month.

Originally, Zhou Yang guessed that it was only 200,000 vehicles at most, and this Lord Liu had falsely reported half of it.

I didn't expect it to be my own imagination in the end, it was too conservative, they actually had the guts, so much silver.

It seems that it is not easy for the people here to endure until this time and not rebel!

After Zhou Yang heard Lord Liu's words, his eyes slowly changed.
