Chapter 1365: The sound of a blackmail, ten thousand taels of gold (Part 2)
This is so shameless, you actually raise the price from the ground up!
Qiu Shenji was almost driven crazy by Fang Jun, and said angrily: "Why do others want 20,000 guan from me when others have 10,000 guan? There is no such thing in the world. Are you, Fang Jun, really going too far to bully others?"
Fang Jun looked at Qiu Shenji, who was blushing, with a caring look, and said slowly: "Are you stupid? The crime depends on the severity, and the fine naturally varies. Someone thinks that your Qiu family is the mastermind of this gathering incident, so naturally you have to The fine is higher than others. Why, you. Are you not convinced? Are you planning not to redeem the person, or are you questioning the justice of a certain crime? If it’s the former, the door is over there, please leave slowly, and you’re welcome to come next time; if it’s the latter, that’s easier, what do you want? All you have to do is concoct a copy of the crime..."
What is arrogance?
This is Chi Guoguo's arrogance, extremely arrogant!
In public, you can actually say such lawless words as "Whatever crime you want, I'll concoct one"!
Qiu Shenji couldn't believe his ears. Was this an official or a bandit? Is it possible that the imperial censors and officials of the Tang Dynasty were all dead, and they did not even care about such an official who blatantly violated the criminal law and had bad morals, and allowed him to dominate without restraint?
Is it so easy to be an official now?
Do you want to go back and talk to your father about it? Let’s get a job as an official. This free and lawless life is just what I want...
Before Qiu Shenji could show up, Gao Jingcheng had already said categorically: "Twenty thousand is twenty thousand. This money came out on behalf of the Qiu family! It's just that I was in a hurry when I came out and didn't bring enough money, and the government may not be able to come up with so much money at once." I wonder if you can take the cash back first, let me do some planning, and then deliver it to Erlang in person?”
The Gao family and the Qiu family were family friends. When Gao Shilian was not yet prosperous, he received great favors from Qiu Xinggong's father, Qiu Shenji's grandfather, Qiu He. From this point on, if a person receives a drop of kindness, he should repay it with a spring. He said that Gao Shilian had done an extremely good job and had been taking care of Qiu Xinggong for many years. Otherwise, with Qiu Xinggong's cruel, cruel and generous temper, how could he have achieved the high position he has today?
Although the money was a huge amount, Gao Jiji didn't even frown. He was afraid that Qiu Shenji would mess up again and make Fang Jun angry. He really didn't have to fight with the Qiu family for a penny. The Qiu family would still suffer.
And Fang Jun once said something - as long as money can solve the problem, it is not a problem...
Gao Xingcheng deeply agrees.
Fang Jun smiled, this is the attitude you should have when talking about business!
"It stands to reason that with Gao Shilang's character and family background, I can naturally trust you. It's just a matter of one sentence. Who can short-change someone's money? But Gao Shilang must also know that I have been going to the toilet in the past two days. I will hand over official duties to Jing Zhaoyin, who I trust. If these money are not handled properly, it will inevitably be criticized by others. If someone wants someone, If you spread rumors and get wind of it by the imperial censor, you will be impeached based on this. I will inevitably cause trouble... How about this? Why don't you write a note and wait until the money is delivered before taking it away? What do you think? To be honest, I’m deeply sorry, but it’s official business, so I hope you will be considerate.”
These words were said in an extremely polite manner, but they almost made my nose become angry!
What kind of family is the Bohai Gao family? My high-ranking official is the prince of the country and the royal consort. You actually asked me to pay an IOU?
This is simply unreasonable!
But this time Fang Jun changed his past style and started to hide his sword behind his smile. There was really nothing he could do about it. If Fang Jun says "no" directly as he did in the past, without his high performance, everyone in the government and the public will say that Fang Jun has no ambition, no ambition, and is obsessed with money.
However, now they are being polite, but Ruoran still refuses, but the way is completely different. If Gao Jingxing refuses to make a note and thinks it is slandering his personality and belittling his character, then it will be difficult for Fang Jun.
You can't let people pretend to be public servants for personal gain, right?
Gao Xingyi had no choice but to hold his nose and draw a line.
There were only five people from the Gao family participating this time, and their status was just a lowly servant. However, the Gao family valued their reputation and did not care about giving up this little money, as long as their reputation was impeccable. The five people had 50,000 guan, plus the nine people of the Qiu family, 180,000 guan, for a total of 230,000 guan, so he wrote an IOU of 220,000 guan - because he only brought 10,000 guan...
< br>
Although Gao Jingcheng is the prince of the country and the future helmsman of the government, he has always been aloof and impatient with trivial matters. He is not very clear about the concept of money, especially not knowing that Fang Jun has always spent money or money. Making money is a big deal.
He originally thought that 10,000 guan would be enough to redeem someone, but he never expected that the price difference was a bit outrageous, and he was actually short of 220,000 yuan...
Even with his high-achieving background and ambition, when I wrote the words "Twenty-Twenty Thousand Guanzheng", my hands were shaking and my heart was shaking.
Mom, how much money can the Duke’s government make in a year?
With so much money, the family will not go bankrupt...
It would be easier if someone took the lead. A large group of people who had been watching saw that Lian Gao was eager to take the money. If the money was not enough, he had to issue an IOU. They didn't care whether it would be painful to take out such a large sum of money, so they hurried forward. Pay money to redeem someone.
Three or four scribes cooperated with Fang Jun to check the number according to the arrest list recorded last night. Then every person who came to pay money had to sign in advance to confirm the number of people and the amount of money to avoid any omissions. This idea can serve as a clerk in a yamen like Jingzhao Mansion. Who is not from a noble family? But even these people were stunned by the numbers in front of them.
Almost all the big and small aristocratic families in Chang'an City participated this time, with as many as ten or twenty people, as few as seven or eight people, and the total number of people was nearly seven hundred! Calculated per head, there are seven million souls! Even Jingzhao Mansion is the most prosperous place in the world and an important place in the capital. These scribes have never seen so much money. They are afraid that even officials from the Ministry of Revenue will be confused when they come. Most of the time, they check the accounts and check the numbers one by one. It seems huge, but in fact there is not much intuitive feeling, but now it is all cash!
The speed at which the money comes in is almost like a blackmail. Once the blackmail is heard, there is a thousand taels of gold...
Everyone was afraid of Fang Jun, knowing that this boy could not be offended, so they obediently spent money to eliminate disasters. Spending money is a trivial matter. If the stick gets unhappy and regrets it, there will be no place for everyone to cry.
Of course, some people are unwilling...
A delicate and handsome young man stood there at a loss. He looked about twelve or thirteen years old. His fair face was red with shame, and he didn't know what to do. An acquaintance nearby was surprised and asked: "Yuan Chao, why don't you pay the money quickly? Your family has been arrested the most this time."
The young man's face turned red, and he raised his hands politely, and said, "This... is really a huge amount, and Yuan Chao doesn't dare to make any decisions. He will wait until everyone has paid the money, and then discuss with Fang Fu Yin whether I can be allowed to go back." Make a decision after discussing with your uncle.”
Then someone sneered and said, "If it were someone else's house, maybe the second house could really be sold to save face. Wouldn't it be necessary to pay the money sooner or later? But your Linghu family... Hehe, that's hard to say. ”
The young man felt helpless and stopped talking. He just stood in the hall with his hands tied, waiting quietly for everyone to come forward to sign and deposit money one by one, and then led the scribe out to count the money and hand it over to the treasury.
Fang Jun was busy for a while, and when he looked up, he saw a quiet, delicate and handsome young man standing with his hands tied next to the desk. His expression was a little awkward. He stood there and received the looks of others who were either gloating or worried about his misfortune. He looked very embarrassed.
Pushing a few documents in his hand to the clerk beside him, Fang Jun looked up at the young man and said warmly: "But you haven't brought enough money? Don't be cautious, just make an IOU, and don't worry that someone doesn't recognize you. In fact, I don’t know most of the people in this room, but I’m not afraid that they will default on the payment.”
As soon as he said this in a slightly teasing tone, people in the room started laughing, but they were cursing in their hearts.
Who the hell dares to blame your second roommate for taking the wrong medicine?
The handsome young man also smiled, his face less restrained, but he still looked shy. He was not the child of someone else, but he was actually put into such an occasion to practice.
The young man said with a slight hesitation: "Of course the money is not enough, but I also know that I can make a note, but the amount is too huge. I hope Fangfu Yin can be tolerant for a while, and I will ask my uncle first before I reply. Not sure? ”
There was a burst of laughter in the room. This was obviously a baby boy with no idea at all.
Fang Jun also laughed, but it was not a mockery. Seeing the young man becoming more and more embarrassed, he looked around, his malicious eyes forcing everyone's laughter to get stuck in their throats and they did not dare to laugh out. They coughed "cough cough cough".
He had a good impression of this innocent young man who met him, so he nodded: "Then I will give you this face. Go back and ask your family before coming back. I will wait for you like this. But then again, whose family are you from? Who is your uncle, and why did he let such a young child come to Jingzhao Mansion?"
The young man felt happy, puffed up his chest, and said loudly: "I am ordering Hu Yuanchao, my great-uncle is the current Minister of Rites..."
Fang Jun's eyes widened, "Mother!" It's actually that veteran Linghu Defen? !
