With the addition of the Academy of Sciences, the situation has become increasingly chaotic.
The policemen of Shuntian Prefecture saw that their own master Fu Yin was beaten. When they were at a loss, they unexpectedly killed a group of young and strong men. They couldn't help but beat him when they came up.
Now, the people watching were even more excited.
Among the crowd, Cao Nai and Zhang Yi opened their mouths, not knowing what to do.
Zhu Qizhen was also shocked. At first, he saw Peng Qing restraining the crew members and repeatedly emphasizing that the rules should not be violated and must be followed. Who knows, the next second, he would rush forward.
Dare you...are the rules set for others?
No wonder Bei Lin has such a fiery temper. Now it seems that she has obtained the true inheritance of Peng Qing!
Brothers fighting, father and son in battle, these two masters and apprentices are really good at it when encountering trouble!
Cao Nai's face turned dark and he murmured: "How dignified are you? How dignified are you!"
Zhang Yi was also extremely anxious. The cabinet scholar beat Shuntian Prefecture Yin in the street. This was in full view of the public and it was spread. This was... so embarrassing!
Only Fan Zhong did not care to watch the excitement, but watched the surroundings vigilantly.
There is a mixture of fish and dragons on the street. If someone hurts the emperor without opening his eyes, it will not be as simple as a fight between two people.
The officers of Shuntian Prefecture were no match for these people. In just a moment, they were beaten back and forth, leaving Master Fu Yin behind and ran away!
The students and craftsmen from the Academy of Sciences chased to the gate with wrenches in hand. By this time, the door had been closed. They seemed to feel annoyed and kicked the door twice before giving up.
On the street, only Peng Qing was left holding down Wu Zhide and beating him wildly, while others gathered around to watch the battle.
Wu Zhide cried for his father and mother, wailing: "It's an insult to gentleness, it's an insult to gentleness..."
Peng Qing grabbed his collar and said angrily: "I'll ask you again, will you accept this offer?"
"I, I..."
While Wu Zhide was hesitating, he punched him again, cleanly and without any sloppiness.
"I picked it up, I picked it up!"
Peng Qing then stopped and stood up. When he saw Bei Lin, he was surprised and said, "Why are you here?"
Beilin cupped her fists and saluted, but found that she was still holding a stick in her hand, so she threw it aside.
"I heard that my mentor had a dispute with Shuntian Mansion, so the students brought the Academy of Sciences to help!"
"Isn't this nonsense?"
Peng Qing frowned and said: "I am here as a teacher. I have some serious matters to deal with. What do you want to do with the sticks in your hands? Fight?"
Beilin looked at Wu Zhide, who was on the ground with a bruised nose and face, and said helplessly: "Student... you know your mistake!"
Peng Qing waved at him and said: "This matter has nothing to do with you or the Academy of Sciences. Just leave it alone and go back!"
Beilin had no choice but to agree and leave the scene with the people from the Academy of Sciences.
These people come and go in a hurry. When they leave, they don't forget to pick up the wrench thrown on the ground and don't take away a cloud.
Cao Nai couldn't bear it anymore, so he approached Zhu Qizhen and whispered: "Your Majesty, the Academy of Sciences is too shameful. Do you want to issue an order?"
Zhu Qizhen waved his hand gently and said in a low voice: "We'll talk about it when we get back. Let's watch the excitement first!"
Cao Nai:......
Peng Qing patted the dust on his body, turned around and said to the crew: "I told you that you have to follow the rules when doing things. You see, Wu Fuyin is still very willing to follow the rules. Who...where is the certificate?" p>
A crew member immediately came forward and handed over the petition.
Peng Qing took the petition, photographed Wu Zhide's face, and asked: "Wu Fuyin, when will the trial start?"
Wu Zhide took the petition evasively and said: "Changping County is some distance away from the capital. I will send someone to summon you. This will happen again and again. It will be at least tomorrow afternoon when the court opens..."
"Huh?"
Peng Qing looked displeased and had a long face.
"No, no..."
Wu Zhide immediately changed his words and said: "Now send a horse to summon us, and order Changping County to travel overnight, so that we can have a trial in court early tomorrow morning!"
Peng Qing nodded with satisfaction and said, "Let's go, tomorrow morning, I will personally come to supervise the trial!"
Wu Zhide was helpless, but did not dare to say anything.
Who has ever heard that a cabinet scholar personally came to supervise the government's yamen's trial?
At most, it's just to hand over a note, ask about the situation, or send a message or something. It's better for you, but you also have to come to supervise the trial in person. Hu Duzi won't do that with you, right?
Peng Qing turned around and said: "You have heard it, the trial will start early tomorrow morning, and then..."
Having said this, he turned around again and asked: "Wu Fuyin, can people watch the trial of Shuntian Prefecture?"
"According to the rules, I won't allow it, but..."
Wu Zhide saw that Peng Qing was about to change his expression again, so he quickly changed his words and said: "This case has a great impact, and I have decided to allow the people to hear the trial outside the hall."
"That's good!"
Peng Qing said to the crew: "Tomorrow morning, are you all here for the hearing outside the hall? Okay, let's disperse. Don't hang around here."
"Yes!"
The crew members finally left one after another, but there were still people staying with Peng Qing.
Peng Qing said dissatisfied: "If I let you go, will you all have nothing to do?"
"Sir, please don't blame us. We are worried that the people in Shuntian Mansion will be unfavorable to you."
Hearing this, Peng Qing snorted coldly, looked at Wu Zhide with contempt, and said, "Do you dare to ask him?"
"No... no, absolutely not! Shuntian Mansion is a serious government office and will never do anything unruly."
Wu Zhide waved his hands repeatedly, and then limped back.
Afterwards, Peng Qing also took people away. After watching the excitement, the people dispersed one after another as if they were still unsatisfied.
Zhu Qizhen took Cao Nai and others back to the carriage. Cao Nai couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, this matter... is really..."
For a moment, he couldn't even find the right words to say.
This Peng Qing is too wanton and reckless!
It is true that you are a cabinet bachelor, but you cannot bully others!
What's more, he is still the governor of Shuntian Mansion.
There is only one word difference between "prefect" and "prefect", but the difference is huge.
Generally speaking, the governor of the two capitals, and the next step is the minister of the six departments, or even the direct minister, or the governor.
In short, to be able to sit in the position of Fu Yin is by no means an ordinary person.
Let's just say that this Wu Zhide was a Jinshi in the early years of Xuande. Now he has been an official for twenty-five years. He is deeply rooted in the officialdom, and his disciples and old officials are all over the world.
If nothing else happens, as long as the chief officer of the six departments has a vacancy, everyone else except the official department can take the position.
However, today I was beaten up in the street by the newly promoted cabinet bachelor. How will I see anyone in the future?
Zhu Qizhen said: "What do you think Shuntian Mansion will do next?"
Cao Nai thought for a while and replied: "We should truthfully report to the court what happened today."
Zhu Qizhen shook his head slightly and said, "I don't think so."
Cao Nai asked in confusion: "Why did the emperor say this?"
"Well... I can't say yet, it's just a feeling."
Cao Nai and Zhang Yi looked at each other with confusion in their eyes.
Such a big thing happened today, how could Shuntian Mansion not report it?
The three monarchs and ministers did not continue the discussion because the carriage stopped again.
Fan Zhong said outside: "Your Majesty, the front is blocked again."
Zhu Qizhen opened the curtains from the side and saw that this was the stock exchange. He thought to himself that even after so long, everyone's enthusiasm for buying stocks has not diminished at all.
It seems that this road needs to be widened, or land acquisition continues next to it to expand the exchange.
"Let's take a detour!"
Fan Zhong replied: "Yes!"
Zhu Qizhen lowered the curtains and the carriage began to turn around. People passed by from time to time outside, and he only heard a voice saying: "I'm telling you, this bank's dividends are half percent every month. Where can you find such a good thing..." "Wait a minute!"
Zhu Qizhen suddenly stopped Fan Zhong and opened the curtains again. However, the two people he passed by had already walked away and could not hear what they were saying.
Fan Zhong saw this and said, "I'll call them back!"
"No need!"
Zhu Qizhen waved his hand, and then looked ahead. It seemed that it was not the stock exchange that was crowded, but a nearby bank.
At this time, Zhang Yi said: "Your Majesty may not know yet. Since stocks became popular, the bank's business has also improved a lot. Let's talk about the longsheng bank in front. The business is very big. I only learned about it last month.
It is said that as long as you can deposit one hundred taels of silver, you can get a dividend of five taels every month, and the principal will remain unchanged..."
Zhu Qizhen's expression changed, and he was stunned. It sounded very familiar!
If you invest one hundred taels of silver, not only can you withdraw the principal at any time, but you will also receive a dividend of 5 taels every month. After one year, it is equivalent to giving you 60 taels for free.
In other words, you can earn back one hundred taels in less than two years. The most important thing is that they will definitely promise that you can earn it for life!
Seeing Zhang Yi's beaming look, Zhu Qizhen's heart skipped a beat. Needless to say, this guy must have bought it!
Today's Ming Dynasty can be said to be a hundred flowers blooming, and the development of industry and commerce has fully risen.
Most business practices are good, bringing wealth to the world and the rise of industry.
But...
Sure enough, with the rise of commerce, speculators such as Ponzi schemes quickly appeared.
I have to say, the people of Ming Dynasty are really up to date!
Moreover, the person who eats the first crab is the happiest person, because at this time, most people have not suffered losses or been fooled, and have almost no immunity, so...
Zhu Qizhen forced a smile and asked, "Is the Zhang Qing family also interested in this?"
Zhang Yi obviously hadn't seen the clue yet, so he smiled and replied: "I didn't know it at first, but later I heard that someone invested tens of thousands of taels of silver in it, and the interest earned every month alone was already several thousand taels.
And the principal is still there, and next year, you will earn more."
"It is said that those who invested money at the beginning earned more than buying stocks. These people immediately increased their investment. I was also suspicious of this bank at first, but later I learned that they had a grand investment plan. Some of the current transactions
, the income is also amazing."
"Not only that, this bank has excellent credit. It is said that it has hired a special financial management team. Now, not only in the capital, but even in Jiangnan, many people have invested money in this bank, and the amount has reached hundreds of millions.
There are tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people involved."
"Due to my status, I had no intention of participating. Later, my unsatisfactory son turned to business because he never got the honors. He invested all the money I had accumulated over the years, and sure enough, the money was paid in one month.
I got half of the interest, and it’s real money, so every penny counts!”
Speaking of making money, Zhang Yi's mood improved greatly, but Zhu Qizhen's expression became more and more strange.
He couldn't help but look at Zhang Yi sympathetically. This kind of Ponzi scheme is almost the most high-end financial scam.
Among them, he is extremely proficient in human psychology and the control of human desires.
Even people who have experienced countless scams in the previous world are still unable to resist these various scams, let alone this era.
At this time, the Ming Dynasty, from the princes and nobles to the common people, was as pure as a piece of white paper.
They don’t know the dangers of the world, they only know that under the New Deal, they can make money just lying around.
Now it's better, I really made money while lying down!
However, the person lying down is not you, but the boss of the bank.
"Zhang Qing's family, are you saying that you invested all your life savings in that bank?"
Zhang Yi smiled and said: "Your Majesty, please rest assured. If so many people hadn't invested in it and reaped the benefits, how could I have easily given away so much real money to others?"
Zhu Qizhen sighed in his heart, not knowing what to say.
Zhang Yi asked in confusion: "Your Majesty, your face...why is something wrong?"
Seeing Zhang Yi looking at him with a questioning look on his face, Zhu Qizhen really couldn't bear to tell him the bloody truth.
Zhang Yi is not a corrupt official, and his life savings may not be too much.
However, the more hard-earned you are, the more heartache you will feel when you lose it.
On the contrary, for those whose origins are unknown, if they are gone, they will only feel a little regretful.
Zhu Qizhen thought for a while, but still said: "I don't want to hide it from you, these people are liars!"
"Liar..."
Zhang Yi's face was a little stiff, and his heart skipped a beat.
"How... how is it possible? They have real money and never default on payments. Moreover, so many people invest their money in their banks. Your Majesty, are you... mistaken?"
For some reason, Zhang Yi's face began to look miserable.
Zhu Qi didn't want to argue with him at all, because the essence of debate is that no matter who holds the truth, even if you give a hundred examples, you can't convince the other party.
Therefore, neither side of the debate will be convinced.
The result is often that both parties break up unhappy, or the debate escalates and the problem is solved directly with fists.
Zhu Qizhen's fist is harder than Zhang Yi's, but he doesn't want to argue.
This kind of scam itself takes advantage of the victim's psychology.
If a person gives all his wealth to the other party, at this time, he will subconsciously hypnotize himself.
Just like most victims, no matter how much people around him try to dissuade him, even if the policeman stands in front of him and tells him that the person on the phone is a liar, he will still insist on going his own way and firmly believe in the liar on the phone.
