Chapter 1423: People are stolen and obtained

As time passed, Chen Zheng felt extremely uneasy.

So he called someone, and this person gave Chen Zheng a gift.

Chen Zheng frowned and said in a deep voice: "Is there any news?"

"Not yet." This person is obviously Chen Zheng's confidant and a slut. He naturally saw the worry on Chen Zheng's face and said, "Master, it often takes some time to get such a large amount of money..."

"What's wrong." Chen Zheng narrowed his eyes and looked deep. He didn't know if he was too nervous or too sensitive or had a sense of crisis.

He gritted his teeth and said, "When the five million taels of silver were deposited, I was suspicious, but... there was no way out, and now I have to go. If the five million taels of silver were true, then with this large sum of silver and the previous savings, it would be worth it. But if this was just a trick to get, it means that someone has seen through my strategy. Those who can use five million taels of silver to lure will not exceed three people in the entire capital, and none of these three people can be provoked by me, so... I must go."

Speaking of this, Chen Zheng showed a painful expression: "But... now I am like a hungry mouse, in a dilemma... Alas..."

yes.

He felt something was wrong.

The best way at this time is to simply give up the money and take the existing batch of silver and quickly escape.

But... this is the temptation of five million taels of silver. Are you willing to do it?

It seemed as if one hand had controlled him in the dark, and even if there were only one or two chances, he would take the risk.

This temptation is too great.

He frowned deeply, his eyes began to wander, but at this moment, a sudden whistle...

The door was suddenly smashed, and immediately afterwards, countless people were already pouring in.

Chen Zheng was startled. He subconsciously wanted to enter the inner room. In the inner room, there was an authentic tunnel that could lead to other places.

It’s a pity... everything was late, the other party came too quickly. Before he could pull out his legs, a musket sounded, and Chen Zheng suddenly became weak, his face was tragic, and his inner greed was wiped out at this moment.

…………

"I took it, I took it, and the stolen money has been checked..."

Wang Jinyuan was filled with joy and found Fang Jifan happily.

It took only one day, and within one day, people were captured.

Although I was prepared for it, including the power of the Shuntian Prefecture, Statistics Department, Tianjin Wei, and Baoding Administration and the Imperial Office, this is still a great thing for Wang Jinyuan.

Fang Jifan stood up with a natural expression, but he breathed a sigh of relief. Sure enough... he still held it.

That's good.

A happy smile also appeared on his lips. He didn't ask anything more, but said in a spirited manner: "Enter the palace, by the way, Xiao Wang, remember to bring the charter I built."

Wang Jinyuan said happily: "Yes."

…………

"Hold it?"

Upon receiving the news, Emperor Hongzhi's eyes suddenly opened slightly, and he was a little surprised.

Although he felt that Fang Jifan dared to pat his chest and promised that he would definitely have a good result.

But I still couldn't imagine that the efficiency was so fast, and I couldn't imagine that things would go so smoothly.

Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but show joy: "But the stolen person was captured?"

The person who reported the news said firmly: "Your Majesty, you are the one who has been robbed."

Emperor Hongzhi took a deep breath and said with a smile: "Okay, very good, please summon two heroes from Fang Qing's family and Wang Qing's family to meet."

Now the whole city is paying attention to this matter, so the news spread quickly and suddenly it was full of excitement.

Fang Jifan and Wang Bushi entered the palace, and Chen Zheng was sent to the capital with great force and was temporarily held outside the Meridian Gate.

Emperor Hongzhi was promoted to the throne and all officials entered the court.

When they saw their joy, they knew that they had invested a lot of money at the beginning.

When Fang Jifan and Wang Buye came to see each other, they saluted.

Fang Jifan said: "My emperor is really wise. With Your Majesty's wise eyes and his eyes are as bright as a slight eye, my son is ordered to capture the criminal. Fortunately, he is not humiliated now. If it were not for Your Majesty's usual..."

Emperor Hongzhi waved his hand: "I am very stupid, otherwise how could this disaster be caused? How many stolen goods have been recovered?"

"It's still counting." Fang Jifan asked for a boring question. This seemed to be a major setback and indelible stain in his career, which made him feel confused. It seemed that he still had to work hard.

"It's just... I think it's good if I can recover 70% or 80% of the money."

Emperor Hongzhi nodded: "What do you think?"

"I have a charter for returning the stolen goods here. I beg your Majesty to take a look." Fang Jifan was prepared and took out a charter from his sleeve, then handed it over to the eunuch, who sent it to him.

Emperor Hongzhi looked down and his heart suddenly became cold.

Fang Jifan said: "Since the stolen money cannot be returned in full, my son's advice is that if there are less than 30 taels, all the money will be returned in full; if there are 30 taels to 100 taels, 80% will be returned, 100 taels will be returned, 70% will be returned, and more than 100 taels will be returned, and more than 60% will be accepted. Of course, this is only a preliminary charter. For the specific implementation, we need to look at the inventory of the stolen money. I wonder what Your Majesty thinks?"

Suddenly, the officials in the hall suddenly became uproar.

Because the majority of people's investment is above a thousand taels, doesn't this mean that they can only return 60%?

Losing, losing a lot of money.

Emperor Hongzhi also frowned and was unsure of his mind.

Fang Jifan said: "Your Majesty, those who invest thirty taels of silver will inevitably have poor families. Most of them usually work in Beijing. They are blinded by the prisoners and are also blinded by interests. I think the money they have accumulated is all the wealth that the family has worked hard to accumulate for a long time. This is their coffin. How could the court bear to intercept their money? Those above thirty taels have barely passed the food and clothing. Although the stolen money returned to them is less, most of them have been

After they returned, their family had a little wealth, but they would not have suffered any difficulties because they had less than 20% of the silver. So the minister thought that this was reasonable. The same was true for those who had invested more than 100 taels of silver. As for those who could invest more than 100 taels of silver, most of them were wealthy and rich and noble. Even if they did not return the stolen goods, they could still have a wealth of food and food. Their lives would not be affected by anything. They also thought that this was a matter of course."

Emperor Hongzhi thought to himself, to put it this way, my two million taels of silver will be only one and two million taels left?

Eighty thousand taels are gone?

The other officials' previous joy has disappeared, and some have even begun to feel heartbroken.

The Zhang brothers almost fainted.

Fang Jifan said at this time: "Sir Wang also agrees with the rules of the son minister."

As soon as this said, the person who had wanted to complain a few times stopped talking.

But when Wang Bushi smiled, he was still calm and composed, as if his five million taels of silver had only been refunded for three million taels, which was just a drop in the bucket and was not worth mentioning.

But if someone who lost two million taels of blood even advocated this, the others would not be able to talk much.

Emperor Hongzhi felt a tingling pain in his heart, but he sighed and said, "Indeed, this method is the safest. Oh... the court must learn it from now on, so just do it, I will be sure."

Which one is more important? Emperor Hongzhi is clear-headed.

Although I feel sorry.

But gradually calmed down and thought about it carefully, I realized that Fang Jifan's move was indeed clever.

As my son-in-law... everyone says he is greedy, but in my opinion, he is also concerned about the people.

Of course... the only thing that is the only drawback is that Fang Jifan himself is an outsider. Anyway, he has not invested money into Ruyi Money House, and there is no loss.

Fang Jifan and Wang Bushi said, "Your Majesty is so kind that he loves the people as much as his sons, and I admire them."

Liu Jian, Xie Qian and Li Dongyang also showed praise. If they really deal with this, then as long as the news spreads, I am afraid that the entire capital will be completely stabilized today.

This is a strategy for the country. Fang Jifan is like a dog, and it is really touching to do something good occasionally.

Emperor Hongzhi took a deep breath and said, "This thief has brought so much money, where are he going to escape?"

Fang Jifan said, "Your Majesty, since my son has expected that this thief would escape, he is naturally prepared. The five million taels of silver and treasure money invested are all secretly recorded. As long as he goes to get the money, he will know at a glance. When the prisoner was taken, he had already questioned him. There was a country in India, the Mughal Kingdom, which is the strongest among the countries in India. Chen Zheng was a Semu, and his ancestors were engaged in maritime trade. Therefore... In the family, a few generations ago, there was a branch that multiplied in the Mughal Kingdom. As the sea ban was opened, the thief looked for relatives, trying to sweep countless gold and silver through smuggling passages, and went to the Mughal Kingdom to join in. This thief has been in Beijing for a long time and has colluded with many imperial officials. Many people have opened a door of convenience for him. Going to the Mughal Kingdom is difficult for others, but it is just a small matter for him."

At that time, the Semu people entered the Central Plains, following the Mongols. Mongolia was divided into several groups, including Semu people. Some followed Mongolia to Quanzhou, and some followed the Khanate to fight eastward to raise food and manage their property. Chen Zheng is a typical example. His family followed the Mongols scattered in the world and spread to all sides with the Mongol cavalry. The Mughal Kingdom, predecessor was the Timur Khanate. As a result, the Mongolian army was defeated in the Asian region. This remaining Khan team invaded India in the south and continued to expand. There was already a vague momentum to unify India.

Emperor Hongzhi frowned and said, "It's so heartbreaking to hear it. It's just a bad merchant, and the harm is so great. If it weren't for Fang Qing's family and Wang Qing's family, it would be no exaggeration to say that it would shake the foundation of the country."
