Chapter 143
Member Jiang frowned after reading the note, thinking that it was so rude to call him to Mingyue Tower, who did he know to go to?

So he threw the arrow and the note out of the car window, opened the curtain and said to the driver angrily, "Go home, go home!"

But after walking for a while, he felt that something was wrong, so he quickly lifted the curtain and said to the coachman: "I'm not going home, go to Mingyue Tower."

It didn't take much effort, the driver of Jiang's family pulled the carriage into the backyard of Mingyue Building, and immediately the shopkeeper of Mingyue Building came up and whispered in his ear.

"The one from Tianzi No. [-] is here, waiting for you inside."

Officer Jiang's eyes were about to fall to the ground, and he hurriedly ran upstairs with his robe in his hands. In his hurry, he tripped over the stairs twice and hit his waist once by the handrail, but he didn't dare to stop even half a step. Straight up to the top floor.

The top floor of Mingyue Building is an attic with an excellent view, and there is only one room in Tianzi No. [-].

As soon as Jiang Yuanwai arrived in front of Tianzi No. [-] gate, he knelt down on the ground.

"Jiang Deren, a grassroots man, greets everyone, everyone is blessed and safe, long live, long live, long live!"

The door was pulled open from the inside, Tianyi stood in front of the door, gestured to Jiang Deren to go in, and after he got in, he closed the door again from the inside.

As expected, the emperor was wearing casual clothes and sitting on the main seat. Officer Jiang just glanced at him, then fell to his knees again, and said without daring to raise his head, "Grassman Jiang Deren, I greet you all—"

"Okay, I've said the same thing outside, but it's still the same when I come in. You don't feel tired, I'm going to get tired of listening, so get up and talk."

Jiang Yuanwai looked up at the emperor and saw that he seemed to be holding a book in his hand and was staring at it with great interest, so he lowered his head again and said, "Caomin dare not."

"Why don't you dare? I think you are very brave!"

As the emperor said, he gave Tian Yi a wink, Tian Yi understood, folded his hands in front of his belly, and said without changing expression: "They don't need our Jiang family anymore, and we don't want to serve them anymore.

Their old Li family has eaten and used our food for so many years, and now they are tired of eating and using it, so they want to kick us away? "

These were all small things that the father and daughter said in front of Jiang Baoyu when he was angry for a while, but now they were repeated verbatim by Tianyi.

Member Jiang was scared out of his wits, kowtowed repeatedly, and said, "The grass people just ate the bear's heart and the leopard's courage, and lost their minds, so they uttered such wild words. Please spare your lives!"

Immediately afterwards, he begged bitterly: "Everyone, those words are the words of a grassroots person, and have nothing to do with the daughter of the family. Please don't blame her and save her life."

"okay!"

As the emperor said, he put down the book in his hand, put his hands on his knees and looked at Jiang Yuanwai and said: "My queen has just cut your reputation as an imperial merchant. You have resentment in your heart and just complained. I haven't been so narrow-minded yet." I'm going to ask you a question at this level. Get up and talk."

Jiang Yuanwai still wanted to speculate on the emperor's mind, Tianyi persuaded him beside him: "Jiang Yuanwai, everyone has limited time, don't waste your time."

Jiang Yuanwai had no choice but to get up from the ground obediently, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and stood beside Tianyi, ready to listen to the emperor's speech.

But the emperor pointed to the opposite side of the table and said, "Sit down."

As he said that, he pushed the book he was reading just now to the opposite side of Officer Jiang and said, "Sit down and take a closer look, is everything recorded on it true?"

Member Jiang naturally didn't dare to sit opposite the emperor, so he just bent down and picked up the book and briefly flipped through two pages, but he became more and more surprised, and finally just held the book trembling, looked at the emperor dumbfounded and said, "This--this yes--"

"As far as I know, the above things are just a drop in the bucket of Jiang Qing's wealth."

At this moment, Jiang Yuanwai not only lost his soul, but also his body became weak. He subconsciously knelt back to the emperor, and continued to kowtow: "The grass people are guilty, please forgive me."

"Hey? What is Jiang Qing's crime? Tianyi told me that the Jiang family earns clean money, otherwise do you think you can still see me alive?"

"This--"

Jiang Yuanwai's eyes were blurred with tears at the moment, and he was bewildered. Although he couldn't figure out what the emperor was going to do to check his property, but based on the experience he had with him twice, he felt that nothing good would happen.

In any case, let's cry first and act according to circumstances.

Sure enough, the emperor couldn't see Jiang Yuanwai crying like this, and immediately lost his interest in catching mice, and said directly: "I heard that the Jiang family was rich as an enemy, and it was just a bragging among merchants. I thought it was a small merchant. I am incomparable to those scholar-bureaucrats with an annual salary of ten thousand shi.

But seeing all this now, I am really eye-opening. Jiang Qing's wealth is comparable to my second treasury. "

"This?"

The more Jiang Yuanwai listened, the more he felt something was wrong. He was thinking about what the emperor was going to do, so Tianyi explained it for him.

"Mr. Jiang, what everyone means is that it doesn't matter if the Queen's business can't be done. You can consider everyone's business."

"Everyone's business?"

When it comes to business, Jiang Yuanwai doesn't tremble.

But when he raised his head and saw the emperor's treacherous eyes, he felt that this business should not be done, and hurriedly lowered his head to kowtow: "The grassroots are ignorant, please explain it clearly."

The emperor chuckled twice, and gave Tian Yi a wink.

Tianyi helped Jiang Deren up and sat down in front of the emperor, poured tea for him and said with a smile: "Actually, it's not a difficult task, now that Prince Shui is building water conservancy in Guangling to benefit all people, the rear supplies are naturally indispensable.

My Dayan, although the country is rich, the people are strong, and the treasury is full, but the Yanmenguan Zhao State is about to move, and the military supplies alone will consume a lot of expenses. If there is a natural disaster, it will inevitably be short of money.

So what everyone means is that the money in the treasury should not be moved or not. "

Jiang Yuanwai would be a fool if he still couldn't hear what the emperor meant. At this moment, not only was he sweating profusely from his forehead, but his heart began to ache.

But he had no choice but to pretend to be stupid, and held up the tea bowl with trembling hands and said: "Don't worry, everyone. The construction of water conservancy is a major event that benefits all people. My family of merchants has always benefited from you and your mother. When encountering such a major event, Naturally, we cannot stay out of the matter and just stand by.

Caomin, as the head of the Shendu Chamber of Commerce, will definitely go back and mobilize everyone to donate money enthusiastically, and will definitely not let everyone and Master Shui worry about money. "

As soon as the emperor heard that there was something going on, he immediately clapped his hands and applauded, but Tian Yi gave him a wink, and said first, "Huh?"

As he said that, he filled the tea bowl that was more than half spilled for Jiang Yuanwai.

"Everyone just didn't want to make people think that the imperial court couldn't afford the money for the construction of water conservancy and cause panic, so they came to see Mr. Jiang in person. In the view of the Sa family, it was just a little money for the construction of water conservancy—"

As Tianyi said, he picked up Jiang Yuanwai's ledger on the table, flipped through it casually, and said, "For Jiang Yuanwai, it's just a drop in the bucket, why don't the Jiang family get it all out."

He seemed to feel that Tianyi's tone was too domineering, and the emperor immediately added: "But Jiang Qing, don't worry, I will not use your money in vain. If Jiang Qing can help you with all your strength, I will wait for the prince of the state to help you. When you return from cultivation, I will grant you the title of Yong Hui Bo, how about rewarding you as a new nobleman?"

As soon as the emperor said this, Mr. Jiang's eyes lit up...

 Jiang Yuan's internal OS: I didn't expect it, my dear girl, your father has become an earl before you become an official, are you surprised or surprised?
