Chapter 324 One move after another, the move is fatal
"Mr. Zhong, it seems that you don't understand my worth."
Yang Xuan curled his lips and said: "I earn tens of thousands of taels of silver a day, and you scared me so much that I couldn't sleep or eat well for several days, and couldn't handle my affairs. I only asked you to pay a hundred thousand taels, which is already cheap enough.
.”
"Who do you think you are, earning tens of thousands taels a day?"
"You don't believe it, right?" Yang Xuan counted on his fingers: "I have 10% of the shares in Shengfa Company, 60% of the shares in Weiji, 40% of the shares of Shunfengxing, and 50% of the shares of Real Madrid..."
At this point, Yang Xuan stopped: "I can't tell you more about the rest. It involves secrets, and you are not qualified to know."
"That's it. My business income in one day is over ten thousand. Do you think one hundred thousand taels is enough compensation?"
Zhong Qian was dumbfounded when he heard what Yang Xuan said. These famous shops in Yingtian Mansion actually have Yang Xuan's shares?
The most important thing is that he actually has shares in Shengfa Company?
Isn’t that the property of the royal family?
For a moment, Zhong Qian seemed to understand something. No wonder he always felt that the emperor was favoring Yang Xuan intentionally or unintentionally. It seemed that Yang Xuan had a close relationship with the emperor.
This means that Yang Xuan used to make money for the emperor's inner treasury, but now he makes money for the imperial court.
After thinking about this, Zhong Qian suddenly broke into a cold sweat. If he offended Yang Xuan, wouldn't he be tantamount to offending the emperor?
Looking at the emperor again, he also nodded slightly.
Yes, give in.
"Your Majesty, please be merciful to me. I really don't have that much money. I have a salary of less than 10,000 taels a year. How can I afford to pay for this 100,000 taels when I support a large family? Uh-huh..."
Zhong Qian started to cry and pretend to be pitiful.
Just kidding, even if I have so much money, I can't pay compensation, otherwise Yang Xuan will turn around and ask me where I got so much money, and then accuse me of accepting bribes or something.
Yang Xuan: You understand me.
The emperor was also in a bit of a dilemma. After all, Zhong Qian was his minister, and the most important thing was that it was not Zhong Qian who committed the crime.
"Yang Qing's family, just think that I am begging you for a favor and pay less." Although the emperor did not show any expression on his face, Yang Xuan keenly picked up the clues from his words.
Yang Xuan has even tricked the emperor into it. In this way, it is equivalent to selling face to the emperor. The emperor cannot accept his love.
Yang Xuan quickly handed over his hand: "Since the emperor has spoken, how can I refuse? There is no need to pay for the money, but..."
Zhong Qian was about to say thank you, but when he heard that it was nothing, he became nervous again.
"But Mr. Zhong has to apologize to me."
They were already pretending to be pitiful, and that was enough. Zhong Qian handed over his hand and was about to apologize when Yang Xuan spoke again.
"You have to apologize to me at the court meeting in front of the civil and military officials of the court."
Zhong Qian froze, and the emperor was also a little dumbfounded.
"Your Majesty, I am not looking for trouble, but I want to set an example for the ministers. Even high-ranking officials in the court must not bully or humiliate their subordinates at will, otherwise they will have to apologize in front of the civil and military officials of the court."
Okay, the big hat is on again.
"Zhong Qian, what do you think?"
Although the emperor's tone was calm, Zhong Qian could also hear that he was impatient. If he delayed it any longer, I'm afraid the emperor would be unhappy.
So Zhong Qian gritted his teeth and said, "I... am willing."
"Yang Aiqing, how about we end this matter?"
"I have no objection, otherwise others would still think that I am unreasonable and unforgiving."
The emperor wants to cover his face at this moment, you are still being unreasonable and unforgiving.
After the matter was settled, the emperor drove back to the palace, while Yang Xuan calmly collected two thousand taels of silver notes and left Dali Temple with the four Ouyang brothers.
Lu Jingzi followed closely behind, and he was already impressed by what he had done just now.
The emperor wants to give Yang Xuan face, who else dares to disrespect him?
When Yang Xuan was counting his properties just now, Lu Jingzi was so surprised that Real Madrid actually owned 50% of Yang Xuan's shares.
How much does this cost?
It also tastes extremely fresh and goes smoothly.
Even Shengfa Company has shares.
How much money does Yang Xuan have?
Earning tens of thousands taels a day is probably not bragging.
Yang Xuan glanced at Lu Jingzi: "It's already dark today, why don't you go back?"
Lu Jingzi didn't know what to say for a while, so Yang Xuan said again: "I have to be on duty tomorrow, so go back quickly. If you have anything to do, we'll talk about it tomorrow."
Lu Jingzi had no choice but to say goodbye.
Then Yang Xuan took the four Ouyang brothers and went to the hot pot restaurant again. They drank Jiefeng wine before, but now they drank the celebration banquet.
When Lu Jingzi returned to his home, he was called into the study by his father and grandfather.
King Lao Heng patted Lu Jingzi on the shoulder: "You did a good job today. Now you won't look down on the merchants."
Lu Jingzi curled his lips: "Grandpa, I still don't agree with what you said. After all, there are only a few merchants like Yang Xuan in the world. I only obey Yang Xuan, forget about other merchants."
The old King Heng and his son Lu Tingchen ignored him and showed helpless expressions.
Then Old King Heng said: "Today's matter is not as simple as it seems on the surface. There may be other changes in the court, so you must prepare early."
"What does father mean by this?"
Lu Tingchen was puzzled.
Old Prince Heng sighed. His son only knew how to handle cases, but he was not very smart about official matters. If it weren't for his status as the heir apparent of Prince Heng's palace, he might not have been able to take the position of Young Minister of Dali Temple.
"Didn't Yang Xuan say that he would ask Zhong Qian to apologize to him in public at the court meeting? Do you think Zhong Qian still has the nerve to sit in the position of Minister of Dali Temple?"
"Father is saying that Zhong Qian will resign?"
"Isn't this obvious? As the leader of the Chu Party, Zhong Qian has lost such a big face. The Chu Party will be hit. If the Chu Party wants to maintain its right to speak in the court, it must let Zhong Qian resign."
Lu Tingcheng and Lu Jingzi, the father and son, were amazed for a moment, this Yang Xuan was really deadly with one move after another.
"As a sixth-grade official, Yang Xuan is only eligible to participate in the Great Court Meeting. In other words, Zhong Qian will apologize to Yang Xuan at the Great Court Meeting, and he will definitely make a speech before the Great Court Meeting.
As an official, I resigned first and then apologized, just to maintain Party Chu’s face.”
"My son understands."
The old King Heng looked at Lu Jingzi again: "Since you only admire Yang Xuan, you should stay with Yang Xuan from now on and learn from him."
"Yes, my grandson understands."
"You know, Jingqi was ignorant before. After being taught by Yang Xuan, look at his achievements now. Who among the younger generation dissatisfies him? If you are successful, you may even surpass Jingqi in the future."
The young man's eyes were already filled with fighting spirit, surpassing that of his cousin Jingqi. Just thinking about it made me excited.
…
On Yang Xuan's side, he was having a good time eating and drinking at a hotpot restaurant when Taoist Zhang came to his door.
"I heard that my apprentice was injured?"
Yang Xuan was stunned. Hearing this tone, he knew that Daoist Zhang was coming from a bad person.
