"Sir, all the debts are here. Please take a look." After taking out all the boxes. The housekeeper looked at Xiaobai and said.
The Minister of Hube in the back looks like he is missing his soul. Paled face.
"Yeah." Xiaobai nodded, put his hands behind his back, held his head high, and looked like a big boss.
Xiaobai led several of his men to the box and opened one of the lids. Golden light radiated out, all gold.
The people swallowed their saliva. This was the first time they saw so much money. Then Xiaobai opened all the boxes, all of which were gold or silver.
"Oh my God, there is so much money. Didn't Mr. Wang just say that he has no money?" Some people couldn't help but complain when they remembered the words of the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue.
"Hmph, it is indeed a lie. If Mr. Bai hadn't been so powerful, Mr. Wang might not even want to pay back the money." The common people felt that they had been deceived by the Minister of Hubu, and now they had a very bad impression of the Minister of Hubu.
"Master Bai, do you want to take stock?" The housekeeper looked at Xiao Bai flatteringly.
"Yeah. Okay." Xiaobai nodded.
Then he took the man in black, but now he was dressed as a guard, and counted the number.
"It's just right. That's what I'm saying. Mr. Wang will not default on his debt. Thanks to Mr. Wang for making a good start. I think Mr. Wang is tired today, so why not rest first. We will continue to collect the bill tomorrow." Bai looked at Hubu Shangshu with a smile, Hubu Shangshu's heart was pricked unnecessarily. tired. Tired.
"Okay, Master Bai." Shangshu almost fainted. When I went in, I thought about it and paid off all the money. After all, so many people are watching. It's really hard for him to default on his debts.
"Thank you everyone for helping me collect the bill today. Thanks to everyone, today is so smooth. Thank you for your hard work. Please line up and come and receive ten cents each," Xiaobai looked at the people gratefully.
"No need. Master Bai. This is what we should do," I heard Xiaobai say that there is still money to take. The common people had money to take, and everyone was grateful and embarrassed. I didn't expect them to be so valued. And they were just along for the ride. Nothing was done at all.
"Hey. Your Majesty said that he wants to treat everyone to meat. Although ten cents is not much, it is still His Majesty's intention. If you don't accept it, Your Majesty will be sad." Xiaobai looked at everyone and said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Mr. Bai." The people were extremely moved. The image of the emperor became more important in their hearts. How bad can an emperor be who gives out money to the people? It seems they misunderstood the emperor.
The people were so excited that everyone received the money. Although ten cents was not much, they ended up buying a pound of rice. A pound of rice was not worth mentioning to the ancients. The temptation is still great.
"Everyone, go back and rest. I will continue to ask for accounts tomorrow. If you are free, you can come." He watched the people collect the money. Xiaobai looked at everyone with concern.
"Okay Master Bai! We will definitely come tomorrow." The people received the money and now they are pleased with Xiao Bai. And Xiaobai attaches great importance to them. They felt like they had been entrusted with a heavy responsibility. It was so easy anyway, and they might even get money. No one wanted to come.
Xiaobai returned to the palace happily. Jiuli watched as boxes of money were carried into the treasury. He patted Xiaobai's shoulder with great satisfaction.
"well done,"
"Hey, the host is so powerful that he made such a move. You didn't even know it. The people are completely on my side today." Xiaobai excitedly talked about what happened today.
Jiuli nodded. Even if you have an idea. But Xiaobai is better than she imagined, and Jiuli sees Xiaobai's growth.
"I've heard about what happened today. Very good. Just keep watch at the treasury. A lot of people will be coming soon." After what happened today, many people who owe money must have been frightened. . No one wants to be as embarrassed as Shangshu of the Ministry of Finance. There should be many people who will consciously pay back the money.
"Hehe. Good host," after being praised by Jiuli. Xiaobai is in high spirits now. I feel like I can still charge more money now. Xiaobai felt like he suddenly found happiness in his work.
As expected, what happened today was such a big battle. Soon it spread to the ears of all the ministers, and they were all panicked. It would have been fine if the emperor had come to force him, but he just called the common people. They are really riding a tiger now. If you don't pay back the money. If that little white guy comes with the people, they will definitely be embarrassed. Maybe he will be scolded by the people like the Minister of Household Affairs.
There are many ministers who owe less than they owe. Quickly send someone to the palace to pay back the money. They were thankful that they didn't borrow much money. Otherwise, you won’t be heartbroken when you return it.
Although they are afraid of Prime Minister Ye, they don't want to be scolded by the people.
After what happened today. The conversation topic in the city after dinner was all about the Minister of Household Affairs. Everyone scolded him, saying that he didn't pay back the money and that he spent a thousand taels to buy girls from brothels. Compared with the hard life of the common people, the life of the Minister of the Ministry of Finance is simply a fairy life.
Hear the people scolding him. The Minister of Hube was so angry that he fainted at home. The brothel girl who was bought regretted it terribly. If I had known earlier, I would not have agreed to the request from the Minister of the Ministry of Finance.
One night. The empty treasury suddenly had a small gold mine.
"I didn't expect that person to have such ability. He actually used people to ask for money. What can I do now?" At this time, Prime Minister Ye was drinking at home. Sitting opposite was Taifu Liu.
"I heard that many ministers paid back the money after hearing about this today?" Taifu Liu said.
"Hmph! Those cowards are all useless! It's wasted all my years of promoting them." Prime Minister Ye became even more angry when he mentioned this. Those people were just outsiders, and he was so angry.
"Sigh. You can't blame them. That person used this trick, and no one wants to be scolded." Taifu Liu sighed.
"The most troublesome thing is that His Majesty has had a bad reputation for so many years, and it only took one day for that person to get back a lot of it. I'm afraid that as time goes by..." What worries Prime Minister Ye the most is this matter. If the Emperor's Reputation gets better. Then all his years of hard work would be in vain.
"The people have just tasted the sweetness for now. Their minds have been dazzled. That's why they suddenly changed their views on Your Majesty. How can His Majesty's reputation as a coward for so many years change so easily. As long as we deal with that person or pull him over as soon as possible. Everything. Don’t worry anymore.” Taifu Liu was not panicked about this matter. They still had plenty of time, and they remembered His Majesty's useless appearance. He was very confident in poaching Xiaobai.
"Speaking of this matter. Have you found out the identity of that person?" Prime Minister Ye asked.
"Sigh. Not yet. I asked people to check, and he really seemed to appear out of thin air. Maybe he is too strong and well hidden. But I asked people to continue the investigation. As long as he is a human being . It will always be found." Taifu Liu shook his head, and he felt a headache when he thought of his servants reporting that it had no effect at all.
