Datang: Empress mother-in-law sent Li Er to test me

As he spoke, he smiled and took a sip of his wine.

Feng Deyi nodded in agreement and said: "Yes, you and I are indeed standing in the same boat, as long as Brother Li Xian kills you and refuses to pay back the money, those colleagues in the court can use you as a shield."

As he said that, he laughed and said: "Now all civil and military officials are thinking of your kindness in their hearts. If you hadn't charged ahead and killed Zhang Dun's arrogance, and Zhang Dun came to the door, they should have I have a headache."

"The officials also asked the old man to tell you that after this incident, you will be their benefactor."

Li Ji was amused, "That won't happen."

"As for, very as for!" Qu Tutong said from the side: "The officials in the court owe a total of 800 million guan to the court. It is said that the money has entered the pocket, and it is not so easy to get it out."

"You help them now so that they don't have to pay back the money. Do you think those people will miss you?"

"Yes." Feng Deyi nodded, and then said solemnly: "Brother Li Xian, that Zhang Dun is not that easy to deal with."

"You have to be ready."

"Although you killed his vigor today, no matter what, that Zhang Dun is also a dog."

"Zhang Dun now knows that as long as you are forced to pay back the money, all civil and military officials will also pay back the money, and he will definitely bite you to death."

Li Ji hummed and said, "I'm prepared."

"That's fine."

The smile on Feng Deyi's face grew stronger, he raised his wine glass and said, "Let's continue drinking, so we won't get drunk today!"

In the hall, hearty laughter sounded again.

After drinking for three rounds and eating five flavors, Li Jihe's face was flushed, and after returning home, the drunken blush on his face had almost disappeared.

With a calm expression, he twisted his sleeves and wrung out the wet sleeves.

Just now at Duke Miguo's mansion, I saw him drinking all the time, but no one saw him. When he drank, he spilled most of the wine on his sleeve.

"Oh, these people."

Li Ji shook his head, knowing that his most important thing now was to deal with Zhang Dun, so he even invited him to drink.

Now is the time to drink?

If you get drunk, wouldn't it be a bad thing?

Li Ji looked at the deserted Duke's Mansion, returned to the house with a blank expression, and lay down on the dilapidated couch.

to beat.

Bear with it for a few more days, and this matter will almost pass.

----

In the early morning of the next day, Zhang Dun had breakfast, and brought Hu Quhe to the Wannian County Government Office.

"Magistrate Zhang, you are here!"

As soon as he arrived at the county government office, Zhang Dun saw Tang Jian and Changsun Wuji, wearing official robes, standing in the courtyard.

Zhang Dun arched his hands in surprise and said, "Tang Fu Yin, Changsun Shangshu, you guys came early enough."

"Nonsense, why don't you come early!" Tang Jian said with dark circles under his eyes, "I didn't sleep well all night yesterday. It's not because of this incident!"

"This matter can't be handled well, let's wait for Yu Shitai to participate!"

Zhang Dun smiled and said, "That's not enough."

Changsun Wuji said in a low tone: "Magistrate Zhang, from your appearance, are you sure that you will get money from Li Ji?"

"I dare not say for sure."

Zhang Dun pondered: "But at least I'm somewhat sure."

Changsun Wuji hummed, and said, "In that case, let's go directly without delay?"

"it is good!"

Zhang Dun nodded, then looked at Hu Quhe and said, "Don't go today, I'll just go with Tang Fuyin and Changsun Shangshu."

Li Ji is not a person who can solve problems with a large number of people.

Hu Quhe nodded and said, "Good sir!"

"Boss Yang, come here, and I'll tell you a few things." Zhang Dun looked at Team Leader Yang again and waved.

When he came to his side, Zhang Dun whispered in his ear.

"Understood!" After listening to his words, Team Leader Yang looked serious, and clasped his fists and said, "I must do it!"

Zhang Dun patted him on the shoulder, nodded in satisfaction, and left the county government office with Changsun Wuji and Tang Jian.

On the way, Changsun Wuji asked curiously, "Magistrate Zhang, what did you explain to that Team Leader Yang just now?"

Tang Jian also looked curious.

Zhang Dun smiled and said, "When we see Li Ji, Tang Fuyin and Changsun Shangshu will know about it."

Changsun Wuji let out an oh, and looked at him meaningfully, this kid hides quite deeply.

Come to the British government.

Still the same as yesterday, the smell is so bad!

Zhang Dun, Tang Jian, and Changsun Wuji held their noses, frowned, walked into the gate of the mansion, and headed towards the hall.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Li Ji was still wearing yesterday's shabby gown, with his hands behind his back, looking at them with a smile on his face.

"Changsun Shangshu, Tang Fu Yin, Zhang County Magistrate, I have been waiting for you for a long time."

Chapter 215 Mr. Li, Your Mansion Is the Chicken That Lays Golden Eggs

"Li Gong, we meet again."

Zhang Dun, Changsun Wuji, and Tang Jian all bowed to him.

Tang Jian asked curiously, "Mr. Li, what are you waiting for us here? Are you planning to pay back the money?"

"Look what you said."

Li Ji looked at him and said, "Does this old man seem like someone who pays back the money?"

"The old man is waiting for you here because of what happened yesterday."

As he said, he spread his palms, facing Tang Jian and Changsun Wuji, and said in a calm tone: "You two, don't forget that you broke the old man's two chairs yesterday, and each of you has [-] Wen. money."

"..."

Tang Jian and Changsun Wuji's facial muscles twitched for a while, and their good mood changed from the first time they saw Li Ji to bad.

Is this still a person?

If you don't pay back the money, you will blackmail people!

He must have intentionally made the wooden stool yesterday, let alone them sitting on it, it would be ruined by anyone else!

Zhang Dun said seriously: "Mr. Li, how about we talk about the business first?"

Li Ji turned his head to look at him, put down his palms, and said with a smile: "Okay, how do we talk about it?"

Zhang Dun said in an unhurried tone: "Mr. Li, you owe the court a total of 230 million guan. You said yesterday that you have no money to pay back, right?"

"Yes." Li Ji nodded and said: "I have money, can I not pay it back? I am not the kind of person who owes money and does not pay it back."

Changsun Wuji rolled his eyes, you are not that kind of person, but you paid back the money you borrowed from the old man!

Zhang Dun said with a smile: "That will be easy."

"Easy?" Li Ji frowned, "Did you drink when you came here? Are you confused?"

If the old man doesn't pay back the money, you shouldn't find it more difficult, right?

Zhang Dun said patiently: "Mr. Li, listen to me, if you have money in your hand, can you pay back the debt?"

Seeing Li Ji nodding his head, Zhang Dun continued, "That's why the lower officials said that this matter is easy to handle."

"As long as the three of us help Li Gong earn money, Li Gong, if you have money, can you give us the debt?"

"In this way, we can also take the money and go back to pay your majesty."

Li Ji was taken aback, and tilted his head to look at Zhang Dun in confusion.

This kid, did he drink fake wine in his mansion yesterday and ruined his brain?

Help the old man make money?And such a good thing?

Tang Jian and Changsun Wuji also looked at Zhang Dun in astonishment.

After thinking about it with you all night, came up with such a solution?

Seeing the weird gazes from the three of them, Zhang Dun didn't think he was annoyed. Instead, he looked at Li Ji with a wider smile and asked, "What's Li Gong's plan?"

"I have to say, this is a good way."

Li Ji smiled and said: "But, don't forget, the old man owes the imperial court a full 230 million guan, when will you help the old man earn it?"

"Your Majesty is still waiting for your news."

"If you were here with this old man and worked hard for a year or so, wouldn't His Majesty be red-eyed?"

"It won't take that long." Zhang Dun waved his hand and said, "Ten days and half a month is enough."

Li Ji frowned, "Is this true?"

Zhang Dun nodded and said: "A gentleman keeps his promises, not to mention that it is impossible for a subordinate official to play sloppy with Li Gong on this matter, right?"

Li Ji looked Zhang Dun up and down, feeling interested.

He had heard about Zhang Dun's ability to make money.

Since he became the cook of Zuixianlou, Dingshenglou disappeared because of him.

Afterwards, some miscellaneous goods were produced, which benefited the entire imperial court.

Not to mention that he made a whole stir-fried dish, which made Zuixianlou's business boom every day.

Li Ji believed in his ability to make money.

Li Ji asked curiously, "How do you plan to help the old man make money?"

Zhang Dun pointed to the ground and said, "The lower official intends to use Mr. Li's mansion to make money."

Li Ji's eyes narrowed, and he looked at him vigilantly, "You don't want to sell the old man's mansion, do you?"

"The old man told you that the house deed and land deed of the mansion, I gave it to the pawn shop, and you can't sell it even if you want!"

"..." Tang Jian and Changsun Wuji looked at him speechlessly. Do you have to be so desperate?

Zhang Dun shook his head and said, "I won't do that kind of thing, I have other ways."

Hearing this, Li Ji heaved a sigh of relief, as long as he didn't sell the house, he then asked in confusion: "How do you make money with the old man's mansion?"

Zhang Dun said solemnly: "Mr. Li just wait and see how to make money."

"Li Gong hasn't said whether he will agree to this matter?"

Li Ji stroked his beard, pondered for a few seconds, and said, "All right."

There is no other way now, after all, the money owed is real.

If he doesn't pay back the money, Zhang Dun will never let it go, and Li Er behind him will never let it go.

Now Zhang Dun has given a practical solution, and it is the only one at the moment. If he does not agree, this matter will not be finished.

At the same time, Li Ji was also a little curious. How could Zhang Dun be so confident that he could rely on his mansion to earn 230 million yuan?

Zhang Dun said with a smile: "With Mr. Li's words, the lower officials can rest assured."

"Li Gong, just wait a moment."

After finishing speaking, Zhang Dun gave Tang Jian and Changsun Wuji a look, and led them to leave the Duke's Mansion and stand on the street outside the mansion.

"Magistrate Zhang, what kind of medicine do you sell in your gourd?"

Tang Jian couldn't help asking.

Changsun Wuji also frowned, puzzled by his way of collecting money.

Zhang Dun sighed, and said: "Tang Fu Yin, Changsun Shangshu, do you think we can get the money by insisting on it in front of Li Gong?"
