Chapter 90: He Who Knows Current Affairs Is A Gentleman
It is better to act first, but then to act miserable.
It was a while, and then it was soon. Li Xiaotian walked with his body and used the already brewed Hunyuan Fist. He only heard the sound of the fist breaking through the air and pointed directly at the man Kong's surname.
Facing Li Xiaotian's assault, the man surnamed Kong was somewhat unexpected because he was not ready to take action at all. He was about to ask about his practice, but he knew that Li Xiaotian did not speak of martial ethics and attacked quietly. It seemed that this punch was
It was also powerful, so he didn't even have time to pull out his sword, so he hurriedly used a sheath to resist it.
Bang!
The fist sheaths collided with each other, and there was a dull sound.
Li Xiaotian stood there with the momentum of punching. On the other hand, the man surnamed Kong was repelled half a foot away, and his chest was so shocked by the rest of his strength that he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
However, with the previous move, both of them had already understood the other party's cultivation level, and they should be at the seventh level of Tongmai.
"Brother, this is a misunderstanding, I don't plan to help him." The man named Kong said that in order to prevent Li Xiaotian from using his old trick again, he made a gesture to stop the war.
Li Xiaotian didn't understand why.
Cao Qing was even more confused. Seeing that he was not joking, he hurriedly said, "Senior Kong, you are the worshipper in my mansion. Haven't you promised to protect me in times of crisis?"
"You think too much. Everyone can kill you, a corrupt official who has no bottom line, who has slaughtered the people. I, Kong Shijie, was the first to despise you. I was blind and became a worshiper in your mansion."
Zhijie cursed with a look of indignation, and then told Li Xiaotian: "Brother, why don't I finish him for you?"
Kong Zhijie, a master of the times, has to be said that this guy's name is actually a good sign, Li Xiaotian thought.
"No need, he is an official appointed by the court, so he will deal with it himself." Li Xiaotian refused, intending to imprison Cao Qing first, settle the amount of his corruption, and then write a memorial and hand it over to Wang Shangyang Qianren for handling.
"Then Kong won't disturb my brother and I will eliminate the harm to the people. I will say goodbye first and have the chance to drink together." Kong Shijie smiled and waved out the door.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I left the room, I met Geng Nian, who had been searching for a good family.
Kong Shijie and Gengnian's eyes were facing each other, and Gengnian's eyes were cold. Kong Shijie couldn't help but shivered, and his eyes quickly dodged. He felt a little scared: Fortunately, I didn't do anything. If the fight really started, I might have to accompany the corrupt official to bury him.
It's really worthless. It seems that I'm extremely correct in my path of knowing the current affairs as a hero.
"Who is he?" Gengnian asked Li Xiaotian as soon as he entered the door.
Li Xiaotian replied: "The disciple of Caozhou's governor."
At this time, Cao Qing sat softly on the ground, his face full of despair.
The palace palace, atrium courtyard.
At this time, the spacious courtyard seemed a little crowded, with seven or eight large boxes on the ground, filled with jewelry and exquisite antiques, and of course, there was a box of ten thousand gold coins, and a stack of chamber of commerce tickets on it.
They are all tens of thousands of bills, which is shocking.
"Commander, all the valuable things in the mansion are here, and the inventory has been completed. This is a list of records." An imperial guard and the Geng year report handed him a list of items to record the lucky list.
The Imperial Guard did not report to Li Xiaotian, the nominal leader, but directly reported it to Gengnian. Li Xiaotian did not care. Instead, he felt that he had chosen the right person with great advice. He had to deal with these trivial matters in Gengnian and gave him the opportunity to
It saved a lot of trouble, especially since he was the commander of the Imperial Guard. Without him in charge, he would inevitably be dissatisfied with him, and he would definitely not be as united as he is now and does things so neatly.
"How to deal with things?" Gengnian asked Li Xiaotian and handed him the list.
Li Xiaotian looked at the list and didn't know it. He was shocked when he saw it: "More than 700,000 gold coins, my goodness, this doesn't include those valuable items, what's more than one million, what's more?
, a second-rank official position in a state governor, with an annual salary of only 500 gold, and his appetite is really great. I really don’t know how many corrupt officials like him are in Qiuguo.”
In addition to being shocked, Li Xiaotian replied: "So many objects are indeed a problem, and it is definitely not enough to carry them around. Besides, we have more than one copy." At this time, Li Xiaotian walked to the box of gold coins, picked up a deposit ticket, four
The big word "Lei Chamber of Commerce" was particularly obvious. He had a sudden inspiration and said, "I have a way."
So, with a wave of his hand, all ten boxes were put into his storage bag.
I thought it would be fine to show off my wealth in front of the Imperial Guards?
The surrounding guards looked shocked. Storage bags are rare, almost costing dozens or millions of gold coins. His storage bag can hold so many things at a time, which is definitely a luxury in the storage bag.
, the bag in the bag couldn't help but mutter in my heart: "I think the biggest corrupt official is you."
In the Geng year, I have always been unlucky with praise and disgrace, and I saw Li Xiaotian's big handwriting
Afterwards, a hint of surprise flashed across his face.
Seeing that everyone was looking at strange eyes, Li Xiaotian hurriedly said, "I picked it up on the ground."
It doesn't matter if this doesn't explain. Every explanation and words stir up a thousand layers of dark waves. Everyone's faces were filled with expressions of beating to death. Without saying anything, they were already booing in their hearts. None of us is older than you.
I have walked more roads than you have eaten, why didn’t I pick them up?
However, what Li Xiaotian said was the truth. This storage bag was lying at his door as soon as he opened the door. It was indeed "picked", but it was just something he was deliberately asked to pick it up.
Lei's Chamber of Commerce.
It is located on Zhengjie Avenue in Pianzhou, with a very spacious building, which is even better than the two major Yuanfangs in Ancheng, which shows that it is rich and powerful, and even the guards in front of the gate are monks.
I have to say that the Chamber of Commerce is just because of the strength of eyesight. When the two guards saw Li Xiaotian and Gengnian, they knew that they were both cultivators with great cultivation. They looked like they were full of eyes. This was the first time they came.
One of the chambers of commerce hurriedly led the way in.
There are not many people in the commercial building, and because they are big, they look particularly deserted.
"What business do the two distinguished guests need to handle?" One seemed to be polite to Li Xiaotian and Gengnian, and then introduced himself: "My surname is Fang, and I am the deputy shopkeeper here."
Li Xiaotian didn't say much, went straight to the point, took out all the gains obtained from the storage bag and searched the house from Cao Qing's mansion, and said: "The gold coins are stored, you can estimate the price of the other things, and they can also be stored in the gold coins."
Deputy Manager Fang showed a difficult look: "It is no problem to store gold coins. As for the remaining miscellaneous items, according to the regulations of Lei's Trading Company, we will not accept them. You also know that we are doing monk business.
It is said that it is about the elixir and spiritual herbs for monks, so we naturally do not refuse anyone.”
Deputy Manager Fang woke up the dreamer with a word. Li Xiaotian realized that he had forgotten this. No wonder there were few people in the commercial building. After all, in a Pianzhou City, there were so many monks and customers.
"But we have a lot of volume, not just so many, there may be hundreds of boxes, so won't we charge you?" Li Xiaotian asked. Isn't the rules determined for the sake of interests? So if you say anything, just put the interests directly.
When he heard hundreds of boxes, Deputy Manager Fang hesitated.
"Why do you guarantee that you have so many boxes?" At this time, a man walked slowly down the stairs and asked.
Li Xiaotian heard the sound and saw that the man looked like he was twenty-five or six years old. He dared to interrupt like this. It should be the owner of the chamber of commerce.
"Shopkeeper, you are here." Deputy Manager Fang said hello and quickly introduced: "This is the shopkeeper of the Lei Chamber of Commerce in Pianzhou, Lei."
To prove his ability, Li Xiaotian took out his official card and said, "To be honest, I am the Minister of Revenue of Qiu State. This time, under the order of the king, I will conduct an anti-corruption inspection across the country. This Pianzhou City is a stop.
Isn’t it easy to collect such a wealth of money in one stop?”
"These should be searched from Caoqing's Caozhou Palace. Speaking of which, he is also a quality customer of our Chamber of Commerce. I didn't expect it to fall down like this. In this Pianzhou, where birds do not shit, it's even worse. I don't know
How long will it take to last?" Manager Lei couldn't help but sigh at the full box.
Manager Lei said it seems that he was wrong, but it actually had a lot of implications, which means that you have handled my important customers and want me to help you with the aftermath?
After several years of experience in life, Li Xiaotian is no longer the ignorant white-faced scholar who was then. He heard the words of Manager Lei and said, "I guess these objects are worth about 200,000 gold coins, and the things are complicated.
It is really not easy to deal with. Otherwise, I would give Lei 10% of the hard work based on the estimated price."
Manager Lei smiled coldly, raised four fingers and said, "40%.
