"This is it."
Zhu Di looked at the dilapidated mountain temple in front of him and sighed sincerely: "It is really a ruined temple."
It can be broken like this without collapse, which shows that the quality is still very good.
Chu Ze nodded in agreement.
It was their movement that alarmed the people in the room.
Chu Ze and Chu Ze had just said a few words when a man walked out of the ruined temple.
When he saw this man's face, Chu Ze recognized him immediately.
The visitor also saw Chu Ze.
He hurriedly came over and knelt down to Chu Ze and Zhu Di to salute: "Fang Yu, a common man, has met His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince and Lord Chu."
"Fang Yu." Chu Ze looked at the man kneeling on the ground with an unclear expression.
Zhu Di was stunned.
He didn't know Fang Yu's name, but he remembered his face.
"Isn't he from Bai Qingwen's side?" Zhu Di pointed at Fang Yu with a puzzled face, "Why are you here, kneeling on your knees alone?" It wasn't that he was suspicious, it was Fang Yu's behavior that went against common sense.
Chu Ze also felt strange in his heart.
He looked at Fang Yu who was kneeling on the ground, turned over his hand to reveal a note, and said: "Fang Yu, you must have asked someone to give this note to us."
Fang Yu raised his head and glanced: "Yes, it was arranged by the common people. Only in this way can we avoid Bai Qingwen's eyes and ears."
"Reason." Chu Ze asked.
Fang Yu pursed his lips, his expression changed slightly, and then he looked up at Chu Ze with a determined expression, as if he had made a decision.
"Master Chu, although we are businessmen and value profits and love money, we are all people of the Ming Dynasty. We will not do this treason." Once some words are spoken, they become much smoother afterward. Fang Yu's tone gradually He said calmly and confidently, "I wonder if Mr. Chu still remembers the time when he went to Bai Mansion to ask Bai Qingwen to raise money?"
Of course Chu Ze remembered.
He remembered that his men reported that Bai Qingwen was indeed raising money.
He nodded: "What's the problem?"
"Sir, this is a big problem!" Fang Yu looked straight at Chu Ze and said with a serious expression, "It is true that Bai Qingwen is raising money, but we found that the money raised by Bai Qingwen is far more than 100,000 Two. Lord Chu ordered him to raise one hundred thousand taels, but now he has gone against the Lord's wishes and secretly raised silver taels. What does he want to do?"
Chu Ze didn't expect that Bai Qingwen could pull off such a trick.
But why didn't his people notice it?
Chu Ze stretched out his hand to help Fang Yu up and said, "Tell me in detail, how did you know that he was secretly raising money?"
Fang Yu thanked him.
"Sir, we are in business, and we are very keen on money. We all know where there is an extra penny or where there is a penny missing. In addition, with such a large amount of money flowing, how could we not be aware of it?" When it comes to his special skills, Fang Yu is extremely confident.
Fang Yu was silent for a moment, and then continued: "We didn't have any doubts at first, but later we found that the money came and disappeared strangely. The most surprising thing is that we also found that Bai Qingwen actually had a relationship with Kang Cheng's people. It’s self-evident what this money is used for.”
Yes, he raised money secretly, but he interacted with Kang Cheng.
His heart is as clear as day.
Chu Ze sneered and said, "I didn't realize that this guy named Bai is quite courageous."
After all, he still dared to hook up with Kang Cheng.
Quite courageous.
"We remember that you and Bai Qingwen were together. Now he has turned to Kang Cheng, but you come to us?" Zhu Di looked at Wen Yu suspiciously.
Chu Ze was also waiting for Fang Yu's answer.
Before Fang Yu came, he knew that these two people would not believe it easily.
Also expected them to ask this question.
After hearing Zhu Di's question, Fang Yu calmly turned his head to look at Zhu Di and said, "We love money, and we don't like Mr. Chu. After all, his coming means that our interests will be damaged. But the righteousness of our family and country, we We can still tell the difference clearly." On the day Chu Ze came to visit him, after he left, he immediately secretly inquired about the bet between Chu Ze and Kang Cheng.
Not many people know about this, but you can still find out with some money.
Then he knew the content of the bet between the two.
After he learned about the content of the bet, Fang Yu took the initiative to find Bai Qingwen, wanting to contribute to the country.
Of course, he just didn't want his country to lose, and he had nothing to do with Chu Ze.
The only connection is probably that the person he is betting against is Chu Ze.
He has been paying attention to this matter since then.
Then I accidentally discovered the little tricks Bai Qingwen did.
Fang Yu sighed and said: "Actually, we talked to Bai Qingwen before coming to see you, but he insisted on doing things for Kang Cheng. We couldn't stop him, so we had no choice but to come to you. This can be said to make you more Be on guard.”
"So Bai Qingwen knows that you already know about this?" Chu Ze suddenly turned to look at Fang Yu.
Fang Yu didn't understand why Chu Ze was so excited.
He answered honestly: "Yes."
Chu Ze: "..."
He originally wanted to save some trouble and ask Fang Yu to find out more information for him.
But now it seems that this is no longer possible.
Forget it, think about it again.
"Well, you go back first, pretend you don't know anything about Bai Qingwen, and then secretly raise money for us, can you do it?" Chu Ze looked at Fang Yu.
Fang Yu frowned.
He looked at Chu Ze in embarrassment and said, "Sir, it's not that we won't help you, but it's that we really can't raise these one hundred thousand taels of silver."
Although his Fang family was richer than others, compared to Bai Qingwen, they were completely inferior.
Moreover, almost all the rich people in Fuzhou wear the same pants as Bai Qingwen. Even if he wants to raise money, he can't find anyone to raise money.
One hundred thousand taels really embarrassed him.
Chu Ze patted him on the shoulder and said: "Fang Yu, the fact that you came to tell us this today shows that you care for our Ming Dynasty in your heart. It is precisely because of people like you that our Ming Dynasty can have long-term peace and stability. But you You know, before you invaded and occupied the West Lake, bribed officials, and drove up prices, these were all things that the emperor would not tolerate. Once the emperor gets angry, you know the consequences. But if you have made meritorious deeds, you may not be able to make up for it. Master Fang, what do you think?"
Fang Yu: "..."
Is this still necessary?
All they had to do was hold a knife to his neck.
So it's really not without reason that he doesn't like Chu Ze.
"Okay, let's do it." Fang Yu gritted his teeth.
Looking at Fang Yu who looked angry from behind, Chu Ze was happy.
When the people walked away, Zhu Di said leisurely: "Can you believe this person?"
Chu Ze was silent.
But Bai Qingwen is absolutely untrustworthy.
"Let's go find Kang Cheng." This man probably didn't know that Bai Qingwen had promised to help him, so he had to go and tip him off to stir things up.
The main focus is to add a barrier.
