Chapter 220 Let's find fault together (1)

In Chang'an in summer, it is still very comfortable if it is rich and powerful. Ice is hidden in the cellar, fat cattle and sheep in the manor, green and tender fruits and vegetables in the vegetable garden. When resting at night, there are countless beautiful wives and concubines in the room who have taken a bath, wearing the most attractive clothes, hiding in a cold room, waiting for her husband to pamper.

Everything is such a beautiful life, the premise is that you need to have money and power, and at the same time you don’t have so many bad things.

A Chinese saying goes, if you have the ability, you are not as good as not to be involved in the trouble.

Many things are much better than having the ability, because some things are really not something you can do with the ability. This is a rule.

The few companies that had bet with Ye Tan before were in trouble, and the matter was very irritating. The people who came to ask for money were actually a few uncomfortable people, Cheng Yaojin.

Cheng Yaojin sent someone to call Ye Qingzhou the next day, and then asked if he had to ask if he had to ask for so much money, not at all. Ye Qingzhou was just right. Others could be slower, but Cui Zhao's family must give it, and it would not be possible to have a penny. This was what the above commanded, and he had no choice.

Although Cui Zhao's mouth is very smelly and has no ability, in Cheng Yaojin's opinion, this person is still a little capable, at least not like those who like to harm the people everywhere. Those people are not good at doing things, and they like to make trouble everywhere.

In addition, the Cui family and himself finally had some reasons, so when he came here, he was inevitably not rude or swearing. However, when Cui Zhao smiled and greeted him into the inner hall, served tea, and was stunned when he heard his request. What's going on?

In the last incident, there were Xie family, Zheng family, Yang family, Xiao family, Li family, Lu family, Kong family, Xun family, etc. Many families, but why did they come to their family first? Is this the so-called killing relatives for justice?

"Duke, what do you mean?" Although Cui Zhao is not hot now, he couldn't help but ask when he heard his request, he said, "Although you are not our relative, you are also a good relative. You actually came to us to ask for money? Do you think it's appropriate?"

"It's meaningless. Haven't you been paying off your debts since ancient times?" Cheng Yaojin said hard. He was probably not many people who didn't know about the Tang Dynasty. He was absolutely shameless when it comes to taking advantage of it. In other aspects, the same is true. It's already great to say so much to people he looks down on today. Do you still expect him to do something elegant?

"But that money was said in the court, and it didn't count." Cui Zhao vaguely saw his eldest wife Zheng in a small room next door. It seemed that she was preparing to eavesdrop, so he was worried that once this matter came out, the old family of Cui would never give him any help, so he could only use his own money to do this. But if this was the case, he could only sell land. In ancient times, the key point of a family's decline was selling land, and it was the type that was despised, so he dared not to beat him to death.

"If the things in the court are not counted, Cui Zhao, do you think there is anything else in this world that can be taken seriously?" Cheng Yaojin was sent to Lei by his thoughts. Do you think that owing money in the court is the same as you like to find fault if you have nothing to do? You are thinking too much, right? Many things in the court, such as some people in the Censorate, may be a little more unlucky in their work, but it does not mean that this matter can be so simple to let go.

"But, this matter was just a casual statement at the beginning. Who would take it seriously?" Cui Zhao asked dissatisfiedly. Is this person the son-in-law of the Cui family? Why does this mean?

"After a while, I will go to the remaining few of them. I don't care what you do, but if you don't pay back the money within half a month, you may not be able to bear the consequences." After drinking this bowl of tea, Cheng Yaojin stood up and left the Cui family.

Zheng ran into the place angrily. Looking at Cui Zhao who had returned from sending Cheng Yaojin, he couldn't help but ask, "What's going on? How come there are so many 50,000 guan? Are you going out to play with women?"

Cui Zhao was also very angry at this time and slapped the table and said, "Women, don't talk too much about court affairs."

"You told me not to talk too much. Do you know how much money our family still has? Less than 30,000 yuan, would you ask us to sell land and houses? Let our family sleep on the street? Cui Zhao, Cui Zhao, I haven't seen it yet. You are so powerful. You can do things so easily."

Zheng's sarcasm did not make Cui Zhao happy at all, or was just like before, but he said even more angry, "Isn't this the case with your Zheng family leader Zheng Benyu?"

"What's wrong with him when you say my elder brother?" Zheng was suppressed by his arrogance and asked in a low voice.

"What's wrong with him? He owes 50,000 yuan, and he owes me." Cui Zhao yelled there with anger, and it was going crazy. What should I do if I have so much money?

"Impossible, how could my elder brother owe money?" Zheng knew that his elder brother was very cautious in his life and doing things. To put it nicely, he was cautious, and to put it ugly, he was pedantic. Such people generally would not make any bets with others.

"How is it impossible?" Cui Zhao originally planned to yell, but then he found that such a yell was useless at all. He picked up the herbal tea in front of him and drank it dry, and then slowly said, "This matter starts with the attack of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince some time ago. At that time, our families..."

When he heard Cui Zhao first talk about things in the court to her, and he said it very carefully, Zheng was a little moved, and he also knew what was going on. It had something to do with Songzhou, wool, cotton, and cloth.

However, what does these things have to do with their own family? Cui Zhao's approach itself has no choice. Such things have long become a routine in the court over the years. However, this is the first time someone has come to ask for money. People are shameless. Some things are to please them, and in the end, no one will take them. But I didn't expect that a strange thing would appear this time.

"Wool? Cotton?" Zheng seemed to have thought of something, and gently patted his head with his hand, as if he was thinking about something. She seemed to have heard someone say something a few days ago, with a slightly serious expression. After a while, she suddenly patted her head because he really remembered something. Looking at Cui Zhao, he asked, "Did the wool and the others later turned into fabric?"

"Well, more than that, they not only got the things out, but also sent them to the palace. His Majesty has already used them." Cui Zhao said angrily, not knowing whether it was jealous or annoyed.

"But why can't you see it on the market?" Zheng seemed to have forgotten the 50,000-yuan incident and asked anxiously. Once these things are released, there will be huge benefits. This is also the reason why many big families have so-called secrets. Once you have these things, you will benefit from them for generations, and they are the kind of things that cannot be taken out at all. Even if you kill the other party, it will not work. And you will also pass on your son or not to your daughter, etc. Anyway, it is very troublesome.

"Maybe it was Ye Tan to monopolize these benefits." Cui Zhao said indifferently, but Zheng said anxiously, "How can that be done? Master, are you confused? How much money is there?"

"How many?" Cui Zhao asked like a fool. For such arithmetic, he might not even be as good as a child in Songzhou, because there is no need. He has a special person to be responsible for whether he is farming or arithmetic. He doesn't need to do this, so why should he learn?

"If this craft can be really relaxed, it will have to be at least one million coins a year. If it is done in the Tang Dynasty, it will have to be at least tens of millions of coins. If such a craft is used in our hometown, it will have to be at least hundreds of thousands of coins." Zheng's mind kept wandering around, as if he was calculating something, but as his estimate slowly appeared, he became a little scared. Is this a little too cruel?

"So, it's best to let go." Zheng's mind had nothing else, only one thing, that is, how to get benefits. As for national policies, what does it have to do with others? You think so?

"But this thing belongs to Ye Tan from Songzhou, I'm afraid it's not easy." Cui Zhao's brain circuit is not the brain circuit of ordinary people. He can even think of other things at this time. As for the money he owe, he no longer remembers it.

"You know how to participate, just say he can compete with the people for profit?" Zheng looked at him with contempt, then turned around and left here, making Cui Zhao angry but had no choice but to sigh, "I will go tomorrow."

On this day, on a very hot day, Cheng Yaojin went to many places, and Chang'an City, which was already so hot, became even more powerful now. Especially when Liu Hongji's family, the biggest shaved man in Daxing City was now the guy from Duke Kui. He almost fought Cheng Yaojin. What a quality person he was, and turned around and left.

Li Shimin in the palace could only rub his head. He found that he had really done a lot of things wrong. Although Ye Tan could do many things, he could also stuff many unlucky things to himself at the same time. Such increase and decrease were a headache for him.

He knew many things outside the palace, and if he didn't know, he wouldn't be able to do this job. However, on the one hand, he hoped that those people would give money, but on the other hand, he didn't want them to give money, because if he really gave money, he would have to give money, and if he didn't give money, the matter would probably not end so easily, and problems had already occurred in many places.

"This brat, I'll get me trouble if I'm fine."

Li Shimin put down the pen in his hand and walked out of the imperial study with his hands behind his back.

The cicadas outside were still screaming desperately, and the trees in the garden seemed to be falling asleep, hanging their heads, struggling to death. He couldn't feel them in the imperial study room, and as soon as they came out, a wave of heat came towards him, which was simply too exciting. He frowned and looked around. The palace in three steps, one whistle, five steps, one stole, and one stole were all heroes. Unfortunately, he was a little unhappy at this time. After all, no matter who was wearing armor and standing under the sun for several hours, he would sweat heavily.

"Come."

An eunuch who was dressed very thin but very serious came over and looked at Li Shimin without saying a word.

"Give them a bowl of sour plum soup from the palace to each of them, so you can't get heatstroke."

"Yes, your Majesty."

Although it was just such a simple thing that made the guards in the palace feel a little warm. Although they were almost about to burn, they still felt comfortable. However, they definitely didn't dare to drink it now. By the time they drank, they would definitely be no longer cold, because although His Majesty is powerful, those who manage this person are even more powerful.

Li Shimin stood outside not to be lazy, but to relax himself, because he couldn't finish reading memorials, and it was easy for people to get their minds very trampled. This seemed to be a paradox, but it was a real possibility.

After standing for a while, he had to go back, but someone came to report and Cheng Yaojin met.

"What is this old guy doing? Isn't he trying to ask himself for money?"

Li Shimin secretly made up his mind that even if this old guy said nothing, he would not give money. The money he came to him was his own children. Unless he wanted to get any little from him except to build a garden. Is he the kind of person who took his own children to buy heroes?

So, he shook his sleeves, turned around and walked back to the imperial study room, and then said to the person who had just come to report the news, "Xuan."

As soon as he sat down, he heard the heavy footsteps outside. How familiar was Li Shimin and Cheng Yaojin? He could even hear how he was in his mood from the sound of his footsteps. From the current footsteps like storms, it could be seen that this guy was not kind.

Sure enough, a cry came.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the old minister is here to see you. When you come, you almost can't stand you."

Li Shimin directly bit his lips. This foolish guy is just going to die or he is planning to curse himself to death.
