I have been a county magistrate for ten years. My subordinates insist on giving me a yellow robe.

Looking at Wang Gang and Qin Tianzhu wolfing down their food, the sarcasm on Ning Chuan's face became more intense.

"You two can eat slowly. Even if you eat until dawn today, I can still pay you."

"No, no, we only need to eat for half an hour." Qin Tianzhu said vaguely while chewing something in his mouth.

Su Su shook her head slightly and turned to look at Jiang Yuan: "Mr. Jiang, since you have come to the imperial capital, I believe you should be clear about what is going to happen next, right?"

Jiang Yuan slowly picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and put it in his mouth: "Well, I'm not sure. I'd better ask Miss Su Su to tell me what exactly needs to be done."

"That's fine." Su Su nodded and said, "It's not really a big deal. This matter is no longer a secret."

"But the trial hasn't been held yet, and Young Master Jiang hasn't come to the imperial capital yet, so I've delayed it for so long. I will personally mention this matter before His Majesty in three days, and then Young Master Jiang will only need to speak as a witness."

"Oh right, as for those people who were there, it would be best if they all appeared as witnesses. As for what to say, Young Master Jiang already knows what to say."

After Su Su finished speaking, she looked at Jiang Yuan with a faint smile.

"Gone?" Jiang Yuan looked at Su Su in confusion.

Damn it, if I say anything, I’ll not only offend the Yang family, but also a series of things behind it.

And since this matter was reported to the emperor, I have no idea which side the emperor is on.

What if I don’t stand on your side, then I will suffer a huge loss, right?

You don't even give me some benefits?

Su Su chuckled lightly: "No, but if Master Jiang is willing to speak up for justice, I will definitely not refuse if he needs me in the future."

Jiang Yuan shrugged and continued to finish the food in front of him.

Is this considered a benefit?

I will definitely not refuse, so you can go and have fun.

Who doesn’t know that saying, as brothers, in the heart, the phone can never be reached. Brothers are always together, no matter how close they are, I don’t care what happens to my brothers.

Seeing that Jiang Yuan refused to give in, Su Su nodded helplessly and looked at Ning Chuan beside her. The latter immediately showed a complacent look on his face.

Haha, I have no official rank and no achievements, but you, Su Su, a princess, still have demands on me.

"Mr. Jiang, as long as you are willing to speak up for justice, my Ning family is willing to give you two hundred thousand taels of silver as a thank you."

Jiang Yuan slowly swallowed the food in his mouth and drank a sip of water calmly.

"Mr. Ning, talking about money is too vulgar. How about we have dinner today and discuss business tomorrow?"

Ning Chuan frowned. He never expected Jiang Yuan to be so greedy. Two hundred thousand taels was not a small amount.

Even if you, Jiang Yuan, live in a brothel every day from now on, it will be enough for you to spend until you die.

"Come, let's eat first and talk about it tomorrow. There's no rush, no rush." ​​Jiang Yuan looked at the two of them with a smile.

Two hundred thousand taels is indeed a lot, but it depends on what it is compared with.

You want to use this incident to bring down the Yang family with the power behind it, then what's the difference between these two hundred thousand taels and giving away beggars.

Ning Chuan was about to explode with displeasure, but was stopped by Su Su's eyes. He could only say helplessly, "In that case, then let's do as Young Master Jiang says and we'll talk about it tomorrow."

As soon as Wang Gang and Qin Tianzhu put down their chopsticks, Jiang Yuan stood up.

"Thank you both for your hospitality today. We've already eaten, so I'll be leaving now."

Duanmu Yuanchen wiped his mouth and stood up: "Uh! I'm full too, you guys chat slowly."

"Well, Mr. Jiang, take care. I will be waiting for you again at this time tomorrow." Su Su stood up and said.

Jiang Yuan rubbed his belly with satisfaction: "Okay, okay."

"Farewell!"

After saying this, Jiang Yuan left with the three of them.

"Hmph! Jiang Yuan is so ungrateful!" Ning Chuan angrily threw the cup in his hand onto the table.

Su Su didn't look angry at all: "Master Ning, isn't this good?"

"If he really didn't mention anything, then I'd be worried about whether he was planning something."

"Sometimes it's better to take money than to ask for anything else, don't you think?"

Ning Chuan's expression softened and he nodded, "That's true, but the point is, this guy is too greedy. Two hundred thousand taels is enough for his salary for many years!"

"Even this is it, and he's still not satisfied! Damn it!"

Su Su shook her head without saying anything. Is your Ning family short of money?

Putting aside other things, as long as we can gain the upper hand in this matter, we will get more than just silver. How much silver will we get?

I really don't know what's wrong with the Ning family. They actually sent such a narrow-minded person to work with me.

"I'm done eating. Master Ning, please enjoy your meal. I'll go ahead."

After Su Su finished speaking, she stood up and told the maid to leave the room.

Ning Chuan stared at Su Su's departing back, his eyes burning with passion. When the two disappeared from his sight, he could no longer hold back:

"Hmph! Still pretending to be noble with me? Sooner or later, I will make you climb into my bed willingly!"

After saying that, Ning Chuan picked up the wine and drank it in one gulp, then stood up and left the room angrily.

The waiter who had been waiting outside the door for a long time came over immediately and attentively.

"Mr. Ning, are you satisfied after you finish using it?"

"It's okay." Ning Chuan said, taking out a silver note from his pocket.

“Save the extra.”

"Thank you, Mr. Ning." The waiter took the banknote with a smile, but still stayed beside Ning Chuan and refused to leave.

"Do you have anything else to say?" Ning Chuan looked at the waiter with dissatisfaction.

The waiter scratched his head, forced a smile and said, "Mr. Ning, this money isn't enough."

Ning Chuan's face darkened immediately: "Are you kidding me? Open your eyes and look carefully, this banknote is worth five thousand taels!"

The waiter nodded quickly: "Don't worry, Mr. Ning, I looked carefully and there is no mistake, but it is indeed not enough."

"What?!" Ning Chuan looked at the waiter angrily and kicked him.

"Damn it! You dare to cheat me? Did you take the wrong medicine?"

"Five thousand taels of silver is not enough for just one meal. We are not eating dragon liver and phoenix marrow!"

"Mr. Ning, hitting people is not a good habit."

The shop owner's voice came from the stairs, and Ning Chuan still glared at the waiter unhappily.

"Boss, tell me, how much does my meal cost today?"

"This blind man actually said that five thousand taels is not enough. Is your Tianxia Restaurant a scam?"

The shop owner waved his hand, and two waiters immediately rushed out from behind him and helped the waiter up.

"Mr. Ning, it's indeed not enough. When your friend left just now, he bought all the wine in our store."

"There's not even anything left in the wine cellar. There are 3,500 jars in total, including 100 jars of Nv'erhong, 50 jars of Huadiao, and dozens of jars of century-old wine."

"I estimate that the total cost will be at least 100,000 taels of silver."

"What?!" Ning Chuan suddenly felt dizzy.

Damn it! Three thousand five hundred jars, why aren't you guys drinking to death?

"You, you just let them go like this?" Ning Chuan waited for the shopkeeper with red eyes.

The shopkeeper immediately looked aggrieved: "Mr. Ning, he is your distinguished guest, how dare we say anything."

"But the money? You're not going to give it, are you?"

Ning Chuan took a deep breath and said weakly, "Even if I took more than 3,000 jars of wine, it wouldn't cost 100,000 taels, right?"

The shopkeeper nodded as if it was a matter of course. "That's right, but one of them shouted at the door before leaving."

"Huh? What do you mean?" Ning Chuan looked at the shopkeeper warily. How could he add so much money with just one shout?

The shopkeeper cleared his throat with a dry cough. "They said that Young Master Ning will pay for all the expenses tonight."

"With just that one sentence, our restaurant was packed instantly, and there's already a line outside. But I estimate that even if we eat a lot, 100,000 taels will be enough."

Ning Chuan couldn't help but clench his hands, and his fingers turned blue.

Damn it! You're using my money to do you a favor. How ridiculous!
