It seems that Zhu Baiding calculated based on the highest monthly profit of each official bureau in the past.
Even if they don't earn that much, they can only break their teeth and swallow blood and use their own money to pay for it.
Otherwise, after Zhu Bai spanked them and ransacked their homes, they would not be able to keep even a single copper in the end.
The first person to go out calculated it in his mind, turned around and went back to get it again with a sad face.
Zhu Bai sat on the porch with his eyes downcast, playing with his fingers, and from time to time he would look at the account books brought over by Fugui and Zeng Yazhang.
There was a commotion in the front yard.
Zhu Bai raised his eyebrows and told Zhang Yu: "Sir, go out and see what's going on."
Zhang Yu came back after going out for a while and said: "There are many people crowded outside Guanyinzhuang next door. They said they want to see His Highness."
The tooth elders standing nearby looked at each other: Is there another run? Haven't they all been taken out before?
Zhu Bai nodded slightly: "Well, let's go and have a look."
Zhang Yu: "Your Highness, there are many people outside, so you'd better avoid them."
He still vividly remembered the situation when hungry people snatched away Zhu Bai a few years ago. Even though he was in Yingtian Mansion today, there was no guarantee that no one would take advantage of the chaos and do something.
Zhu Bai also had many enemies.
Zhu Bai: "I am the face of Guanya Bureau and Guanyinzhuang. If I don't even dare to show my face, how can I have any credibility? I must get out."
Zhang Yu had no choice but to say to the guards: "Everyone, please be alert. Keep an eye on all directions and an ear on all sides. Don't let anyone take advantage of the loopholes."
The guards responded in unison: "Yes!!"
It was really crowded outside.
As soon as Zhu Bai walked on the road, the noisy crowd suddenly fell silent, and then suddenly burst into cheers.
"Ah, King Xiang is back, that's great."
"Your Highness, you are back."
Zhu Bai nodded: "Thank you all for your support, folks. From today on, in the next five days, if you deposit money into Guanyinzhuang, no matter how much, the interest will be increased by 10% on the original basis."
When the people heard this, they dispersed and ran back.
"Get the money quickly."
"The King of Xiang is back, I don't have to worry about the money being stored in Guanyin Village."
"The interest rate has increased by 10%, which is really a great thing."
The shopkeeper smiled and said to Zhu Bai: "Your Highness is really a golden sign. When the people heard that you were back, they rushed to save money."
The tooth elders heard the noise in the backyard and sighed secretly: Isn't it? The ballast stone of these two big ships, Guanyinzhuang and Guanyaju, is Zhu Bai! !
With Zhu Bai here, the ship can sail steadily without fear of any wind or waves.
Without Zhu Bai, the boat could capsize at any time.
Zhu Bai walked into the backyard of Guanya Bureau and sat down on the porch.
The shopkeepers who had just gone back to collect the money also came back one after another, panting and standing in the backyard again.
Fugui still collected the banknotes one by one and registered them again, then presented the form to Zhu Bai.
Zhu Bai scanned it with his eyes and curled his lips: "Tsk, tsk, that makes sense. Do you still remember the first lesson I taught you?"
The fangs looked at each other, then lowered their heads.
Zhu Bai said: "Loyalty!! You can be stupid, but you can't betray me! The situation forces you to lower your head and save your strength, but you can't give weapons to the enemy! Who among you has to obey the government's pressure? I know whoever took the initiative to go to the government office to plan."
Several fangs knelt down and said, "The villain deserves to die."
"The villain was confused for a moment."
Counting the number of people, it’s exactly half.
Zhu Bai: "Take the initiative to find someone from the government office, and now go to the side to get ten boards."
When those people heard this, they breathed a sigh of relief, kowtowed, and then went to the side to get their boards.
After they were beaten, Zhu Bai said again: "The king has given you a task. If you can complete it, this matter will be wiped out, and I will not pursue it further. You will still be your fangs."
The tooth elders were overjoyed and said hurriedly: "Your Highness, just ask."
"As long as there is nothing that little people can do, they will not hesitate to die."
"Don't be happy yet. You may not be able to do this." Zhu Bai raised his hand to stop the commotion and said, "I want you to force the government office within one month to swallow the food that originally belonged to the Guanya Bureau in the past three months. I will spit out all the profits made by the government and the court. And I cannot collect a penny from the people. Otherwise, I will be punished as a crime of corruption."
The tooth elders were stunned for a moment, and then their hearts raced: This is simply impossible!
Who will spit out the money he has swallowed? !
Not to mention that we are the people and they are the officials.
I have only heard of officials collecting taxes and taking things from the people, but I have never heard of people forcing officials to hand over money.
The corner of Zhu Bai's mouth twitched: "You have me and the guards behind you, so what are you afraid of?"
When the time comes for them, he will naturally give them a push in the dark.
It's just that I can't tell them now, otherwise these people will do nothing and wait for him to deal with it.
Zhu Bai: "Others, just go and do what you have to do. Tuya Zhang stays."
Tu Ya was a little worried and stood in front of Zhu Bai with his hands down.
Zhu Bai looked at him and sneered: "Tu Ya Chang, you are so clever."
Tu Ya Chang's face turned pale, his feet softened and he knelt on the ground: "The villain deserves to die."
Zhu Bai said: "This time, if you use those little tricks on Li Jinglong and Xu Huizu, I will not care about you. They deserve it. However, if you dare to use it on me in the future, I will do it twice." Together! Do you understand?"
Tu Ya was prostrate on the ground and said: "I will never dare to be disloyal to His Highness."
Zhu Bai: "Well, you can take care of yourself. I will stay in Yingtian for at least five or six years. Even if I go to Changsha in the future, it will still be easy to deal with you."
Tuya was covered in cold sweat: "Yes. I understand."
This time, he also saw one thing clearly. Although he seems to be the one who controls the wind and rain, and makes countless amounts of money every day, it is actually because of Zhu Bai's identity and ability.
Without Zhu Bai's backing, he is nothing.
-----
Each tooth grower hurried back again.
Zhu Bai only gave him a month, so he couldn't spend it all on the road.
The first one to arrive home was Ya Chang from Hangzhou. Before he could catch his breath, he immediately went to find the two chief envoys.
In fact, the two chief envoys were very nervous when they heard that Zhu Bai was back.
Lao Zhu hates corrupt officials the most. It depends on how Zhu Bai handles them.
If Tooth Chang was captured and killed directly, they would basically be finished.
Now that the teeth have grown back, their lives are at least safe.
Ambassador Zuo asked Ya Chang: "How is it? What did your Highness say?"
Ya Chang: "It'll be fine if I just give back the money."
The right chief envoy frowned and asked: "How much should we retreat?"
Tooth Chang: "All profits within three months."
Chief Envoy Zuo: "Impossible. Some of this was originally supposed to be given to us by the Guanya Bureau."
Ya Chang sighed: "I have conveyed your Highness's words to the two adults word for word. Please consider it carefully."
To be honest, Zhu Bai has been very kind to you.
It’s not enough to give him all I earned in the past three months, and I even gave him a lot more.
If you think about it, I have worked in vain for the first half of this year.
You can't even take advantage of Zhu Bai's advantage.
