"It's really cheap for them."

After seeing off Li Guozhong and others, Xu Zhiqian's words almost made Fan Li and Qiu Zhengwen fall down.

"Enough! Enough!"

Fan Li said repeatedly: "This is already very difficult. Not to mention our ears, even the court has never recovered the fine of 500,000 yuan, this and this."

He no longer knew how to describe this intention to settle the contract.

In fact, Zhang Fei has used this trick before to ask for high prices, but the amount claimed in the end is often very limited.

It's not a sky-high price in a monetary sense.

As for the claim against Wei Yushan, it only scratches the surface.

And this time, the claim is definitely a sky-high price.

Break all previous records.

The key is that the other party is a super landowner in Tokyo, which was simply unimaginable before.

Zhang Fei glanced at Fan Li who couldn't speak clearly, chuckled, and said to Xu Zhiqian: "When negotiating this matter, we can't just look at how much the other party compensates, but also how much we get."

Xu Zhiqian was stunned, "Isn't what the other party compensates us the same as our income?"

"Absolutely not."

Zhang Fei shook his head and said: "Our employer's income is far more than 500,000 yuan, and the significance is far-reaching."

Qiu Zhengwen on the side listened very curiously, "Third brother, how do you say this?"

"You will know then."

Zhang Fei smiled profoundly and suddenly said: "Actually, it's not even close. At least compared to our neighbors, it's still far behind. We still need to work hard."

Qiu Zhengwen was shocked when he heard this, "Neighbor? Who is it?"

Zhang Fei said: "Liao Kingdom!"

Fan Li was stunned for a while before he realized what he was saying. His face turned pale with fright, "Hey! Sanlang, don't say such nonsense. If others hear it, we can bear it."

Zhang Fei smiled and did not continue.

Fan Li quickly changed the subject, "Then do you think Kaifeng Mansion can agree?"

Zhang Fei asked, "When will it be Kaifeng Mansion's turn to make the decision?"

"?"

A fruitful negotiation will satisfy both parties, and even the paying party will not feel at a loss.

Such as this time.

Although Li Guozhong and others agreed to Zhang Fei's many "harsh" conditions.

But when Li Guozhong and others brought the news back, the landowners were ecstatic and praised Li Guozhong and other tea-eaters.

You are so awesome.

major!

If these seven, seven or eight losses were added up and divided evenly, each person would have less than 10,000 guan.

value!

It’s so worth it!

Isn’t it just ten thousand guan?

I can afford it.

Woohoo!

As for the scholar-bureaucrats, they all breathed a sigh of relief and were very willing to accept the price. No one had any complaints.

Because in this game, they lost miserably and were completely manipulated by the little emperor.

There will definitely be a price to pay.

Zhang Fei represents the imperial court, with the young emperor and Wang Anshi behind him.

If he is willing to reconcile, it means that the emperor will not delve into it.

This is the best result.

As for money?

This little money is what it should be.

But the hanging heart has not been completely let go, because the two parties have only signed a letter of intent, and the key depends on whether Kaifeng Palace is willing to accept it... Although they all expected that Kaifeng Palace will definitely agree, but as long as Kaifeng Palace does not pronounce a verdict,

It is difficult for them to completely let go.

Therefore, they arrived at Kaifeng Mansion early the next morning.

There was almost no one sitting, and everyone was standing, but no one was chatting. The atmosphere was quite strange. When Su Shi, Su Che and others came here, they looked at the empty chairs and looked at the empty chairs.

There were dark circles under both eyes, and I couldn't help but feel the hairs on my hair standing on end.

What's happening here?

But they soon learned that Zhang Fei and Li Guozhong had arrived before and were now discussing with Lu Gongzhu and others in the hall.

"Confess?"

Lu Gongzhu looked at Li Guozhong and others in surprise.

Li Guozhong nodded and said: "When I return to the magistrate, Xiaomin's employers have realized the mistakes they have made, and are willing to plead guilty and make compensation for the mistakes they have made."

It cannot be said to be a reconciliation with the Kaifeng Mansion. After all, this is tax evasion and an illegal act. If it is said to be a reconciliation in name, it is a blasphemy against the law and must be confessed.

Lu Gongzhu was a little puzzled. If you admit to this crime, according to the punishment, even if you are exempted from the death penalty, you will still be able to escape the living crime.

In the Song Dynasty, the penalties for tax evasion were actually very severe, and the maximum could reach Lingchi.

At this time, Li Guozhong took out another confession and handed it over.

As soon as Lu Gongzhu read the confession, he immediately understood what was going on.

The above charges are very minor. In any case, they will admit it as Wang Anshi accuses him, and the compensation they are willing to pay is far higher than the crime they admit.

I have never seen such a sincere confession.

Lu Gongzhu couldn't help but look at Zhang Fei and cursed secretly, this brat is really easy to handle! He frowned and asked: "Zhang San, are you satisfied with this?"

Zhang Fei said: "We are very satisfied."

Li Kai, Cen Yuanli and the others were a little confused after what they heard. How can you let you have the final say on this illegal matter? Is it true that our Kaifeng Mansion was run by his family?

Mr. Lu nodded and said, "You go out first, we have to discuss it."

"Xiaomin, please retire."

After Zhang Fei and Li Guozhong withdrew.

Li Kai immediately complained: "Prefect Lu, we should decide how to judge. How can we allow them to decide?"

In fact, they are all willing to end it early, which is almost enough, but who makes the decision is very critical.

Lu Gongzhu sighed: "If we follow the law, we can't decide."

"ah?"

All the judges were dumbfounded.

Lu Gongzhu then showed them the confession.

After Li Kai and the others looked at it, they looked at each other.

Yesterday I almost reached the gate of hell, and after this night, I went straight back to the human world.

What's even more outrageous is that if only these crimes are counted, then this punishment should not be too excessive.

It doesn’t match at all!

Yu Zaishen wondered: "Prefect, according to yesterday's trial, it can't be just this crime. We can't judge them how they plead guilty. This will damage the prestige of our Kaifeng Prefecture."

Lu Gongzhu then asked: "Then what crime did they commit?"...Cen Yuanli said: "What about tax notes and account books?"

In fact, they didn't want to care about this matter and left it to the higher authorities, but now they are still competing with Zhang Fei and the others.

Why do you have the final say?

Lu Gong said: "You see clearly, the list above does not include Zhou Cai. And Du Shaojing and others did not produce tax banknotes. Although their names are on the account book, as long as they do not produce tax banknotes, then this

It is the fault of the imperial court, and there is currently no evidence to prove that it is related to them."

Li Kai added: "Yesterday, Du Shao confessed to the crime he committed."

Lu Gong wrote: "That is not what he admitted, but what Zhang San accused. Even Bai Qi's tax evasion was added by Zhang San. If Zhang San withdraws these lawsuits, then what can we use to convict him?

"

As soon as these words came out, Li Kai and others all looked confused.
