Chapter 184: No need for corruption
Wu Zhong is not wrong, and a lenient punishment does not mean that he will not be punished.
The emperor did not raise his chest and asked:
"Then Lord Wu, how should you punish you?"
Wu Zhong said: "Since he blew up the city gate, although we will not hold him responsible, he must pay compensation for this city gate." ”
The Ministry of Rites and the others immediately laughed, why didn't I think of it? This city gate is repaired, and it is not much money for a country.
But for one person to come, that money goes more. This evil wolf definitely can't afford to pay, as long as he can't afford it, then he must go to prison or something.
Wang Yujie smiled and asked:
"Lord Wu Zhongwu, you, how much money does this city gate have to pay?"
Wu Zhongdao:
"Since it is a punishment, it cannot be calculated according to the specific price of repairing the city gate. As long as Mr. Wolf can come up with 50,000 taels of silver to repair the city gate. Then this matter is in the past. ”
Wu Zhongwan secretly glanced at them with the Ministry of Rites, and was very proud in his heart.
Because, there is a big trap in his words, as long as Wang Yujie can't see it, jump in.
Then, even if he can't bring down Wang Yujie today, he can still walk around without eating.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Wang Yujie heard this number, he said arrogantly:
"It turned out to be only 50,000 taels of silver, which is too little. Let's pay 100,000 taels! Build this gate higher, bigger, more majestic, and stronger. However, in the future, my brother will enter the city, and if anyone dares to embarrass him, Lao Tzu will not blow up the city gate, but the people on the city gate. ”
"Huh?"
When the city gateman who was still kneeling there heard this, he was immediately so frightened that he couldn't help but cry out.
This bastard, this is too ruthless, next time people won't blow up the door, blow up people. How could he not be afraid?
Wu Zhong smiled, and he said confidently:
"Lord Wang Yujie, you are really rich! I just don't know how much money you have for a month, and you can actually take out 100,000 silver to repair the city gate. ”
The Ministry of Rites Shangshu also smiled, and hurriedly stood up and said:
"That's right, Lord Wang, according to your money, even if you have been an official for 100 years, you can't save more than 100,000 taels of silver, right? Now you can easily take out 100,000 taels of silver, Lord Wang, are you also corrupt?"
At this moment, all the officials who had a grudge against Wang Yujie reacted, and they were so excited that they didn't want to. It's as if they've knocked Wang Yujie down.
It was still Lord Wu Zhong and Master Wu who was so powerful that he set such a big trap for Wang Yujie.
Now, Wang Yujie has jumped in and succeeded. This time, even if he jumped into the Yellow River, he wouldn't be able to wash it, right?
The words of the Ministry of Rites made the emperor's face sink as well. He is very optimistic about Wang Yujie, if Wang Yujie also did corrupt things and was exposed in public, it would be bad.
saw Wang Yujie say lightly:
"Ministry of Rites, your brain is really big. You can think of such things. I, a person who can earn tens of thousands of taels of silver, take out 100,000 taels of silver, and still have to embezzle?"
What kind of thing? One can earn tens of thousands of taels of silver, what are you kidding?
What kind of industry does he Wang Yujie have? Longhumen Bookstore? Longhumen Bookstore sells books for one or two pieces of silver, I'm afraid he will lose a lot of money every time, where does he go to make money?
The Ministry of Rites Shangshu's heart was abrupt, but his mouth was faint:
"Lord Wang, then please show me the source of your money! Otherwise, you will not be able to escape from this charge of embezzlement and bribery. ”
Wang Yujie said with a smile: "Of course, my money is earned by my Longhumen bookstore. Otherwise, where would Lao Tzu go to make money?"
The Ministry of Rites smiled:
"Lord Wang, your Longhumen Bookstore is estimated to lose a lot of money, right? Now, you are using this to make a fuss? Your Longhumen Bookstore is not used to launder money, right?"
I'll launder your sister's money.
Wang Yujie said:
"Master Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, I don't know if your arithmetic is good? Let's do the math, the cost of my books is less than 10 yuan, each book sells for one or two silver, and one can sell tens of thousands of copies. Now, it's just 100,000 taels of silver to come out and sprinkle water. ”
"Huh..."
The officials in the audience gasped. Even the emperor's face changed.
"Wang Aiqing, is yours real? Is it true that the cost of your book is less than 10 yuan?"
Wang Yujie said with a smile: "Of course, if I make a book, it will cost a few taels of silver a piece, and for every tens of thousands of copies sold, where can I go to lose so much money?
"Huh?"
There is no need for Wang Yujie to explain more, just by virtue of his words, this matter will be really hammered. If his words are false, then where does he go to ask for so much silver to lose?
At this time, all the officials had a feeling of being played. At that time, they thought that Wang Yujie would lose money every time he opened this bookstore, but they didn't expect people to make a lot of money.
The Ministry of Rites Shangshu shouted in disbelief:
"No way, how is this possible, no one in the world can make a book at such a low cost. 10 dollars, it's not enough to buy paper, how can you make a book?"
Wang Yujie looked at him like a fool and said:
"Lord Shoshu of the Ministry of Rites, you don't have water in your head, do you? Or, you think, someone as smart as me. Will I do something that loses hundreds of thousands of taels of silver? Even if I can do it, I have to lose resources!"
The faces of Wu Zhong and Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites and other officials were very ugly, and their faces were crackled!
I thought I could bring down Wang Yujie with this just now! Unexpectedly, people turned around and slapped them a few times, which made them feel hot on their faces, and they were embarrassed!
Wu Zhong's eyes turned to his heart, and he smiled hehehe:
"Lord Wang, these are the words of your family, no one knows whether you can spend ten cents to make a book. If you want to prove your innocence, you can only take us all to visit the site together. Otherwise, you will be guilty of this crime of corruption and bribery. ”
The eyes of the Ministry of Rites and the others suddenly lit up, yes, yes, yes, this guy opened his mouth in the court and bragged, we almost believed it.
If he can't prove that he can really make a book with 10 yuan, then he can't get away with the crime of corruption and bribery.
The most important thing is that if he can really make a book for ten yuan, as long as he takes everyone to see it, then his book-making skills are no longer a secret.
The main thing is that if they also learn this technique, then they can also earn this money.
This is absolutely no good for Wang Yujie, but a complete blow.
Hahaha, sure enough, ginger is still old and spicy. It's still Wu Zhong and Lord Wu is powerful, and if you don't accept it, you can't do it!
