Chapter 119 Please be serious
Guo Dan's astonished look made Wanli feel guilty. It was really the kind of guilty feeling that he had stole something from Guo Dan, and he couldn't help but glance at Zhang Jing.
Zhang Jing understood it and immediately sneered: "Of course this box is yours, but the silver in it is not yours."
Guo Dan looked at Zhang Jing in surprise at first, then said with admiration: "I didn't expect that the governor even knew this, and this money was indeed not mine."
"Did you admit it?"
Zhang Jing was also a little confused. As the supervisor of the East Factory, he had interrogated many prisoners, but he had never seen such an honest person. He could only say that this kid did not play by the rules!
Guo Dan scratched his head honestly and smiled shyly: "I was a little confused when the governor said it. This silver is not mine, so why should I admit it is mine? Even if I admit it is mine, the owner of these silver will not admit it is mine."
Zhang Jing was so confused by him that he had been wandering around. After a while, he asked, "Since it's not yours, why is this silver in your hands?"
Guo Dan said, "This is the thing. These silvers are all Zhou Feng from Jinyulou and Cao Da from Yunxiaolou. They will keep the sincerity gold here for the time being."
I knew you would say that. Zhang Jing sneered a few times and said, "Do you want to say that you are planning to expand your small teeth recently, and they want genists to come in?"
As the boss of the Daming Intelligence System, how could he not investigate much of this matter? He had already found it clear.
Guo Dan immediately looked admired again: "The Lord Supervisor is really amazing. You even know this clearly. Guo Dan's admiration for the Lord Supervisor is like a surging river, continuous."
"Don't talk sweetly here, Gu Zuo talks about him."
Zhang Jing snorted and interrupted him, wondering whether this boy knew that he was already in his life and was at ease. He was too lazy to circle around Guo Dan anymore, and he almost fainted. He pointed at Guo Dan and said, "You bold boy, you dare to pretend to be stupid and speak nonsense in front of His Majesty. These silvers are clearly what you used to raise funds for the enthronement ceremony to fill your personal pockets. With your little trick, how could you hide it from the governor? I think you must have secretly agreed to Zhou Feng and the others' requests, and then let them hand over the silver to you privately."
This is really not because he forcibly framed him. Although he found out that he had invested in the shares, he really didn't believe it because the way of checking the cash was too sneaky and he didn't dare to put it home. There must be something wrong with this. With his years of experience, he believed that Guo Dan was fond of his personal pockets, and he had seen many tricks.
When Guo Dan heard this, he couldn't help but stare at Zhang Jing in amazement.
"You have nothing to say." Zhang Jing sneered, and immediately said to Wanli: "Your Majesty also asks me to submit this matter to me for investigation. I promise that within three days, I will find out the truth."
Wanli seemed a little hesitant, looked at Guo Dan, and saw him silence again, and seemed a little disappointed. He thought, it seemed that this matter was probably as Zhang Jing said, but he still wanted to give Guo Dan a chance. After all, he still likes Guo Dan very much, and said, "Guo Dan, now this person has been stolen, what else do you have to say."
"Your Majesty, Caomin—Pu—Hahaha, sorry, Caomin can't help it, haha."
As Guo Dan talked, he suddenly burst into laughter.
Wanli and both Zhang were stunned.
Is this kid crazy?
It seems that the skills of the supervisor of the East Factory have been greatly improved. In the past, those people had to enter the East Factory and then become crazy. Now, before they even entered, this person went crazy.
What a pity that such a young talent!
"why are you laughing?"
Zhang Jing pointed at Guo Dan and scolded him unhappily.
You should beg for mercy on your knees.
"I'm sorry, Lord, I'll give me some more time haha!"
Guo Tan smiled and tears came out, and he couldn't stop at all.
Damn it! Zhang Jing was so angry that his eyebrows jumped straight, and immediately said to Wanli: "Your Majesty."
Wanli raised his hand and stopped Zhang Jing from continuing, and said with a gloomy face: "The factory minister is a little calm. Now that he is caught, he cannot escape. There is no need to rush to let him laugh for a while. I want to hear what he is laughing at."
"Thank you for forgiveing the rudeness of the people." Guo Dan bit his lip and said vaguely.
"You keep laughing!"
Wanli gritted his teeth and said to Guo Dan.
He was really annoyed. This is really a serious matter. Can't you be more serious, and the atmosphere is so awkward.
Guo Dan couldn't help but restrain himself. If he smiled, something might happen. He hurriedly said in a terrible and trepidated manner: "Caomin just couldn't hold it back for a while, so please forgive him."
Wanli waved his hand and said, "Stop talking about these things. I just want to hear them. What are you laughing at? Why don't I think it's funny?"
Guo Dan glanced at Zhang Jing and said embarrassedly: "Supermaster, I'm haha."
Zhang Jing really wanted to beat this guy to death. He felt that Guo Dan’s laughter was just humiliating him. After all, he was serious about reasoning, not talking about crosstalk.
Wanli said angryly: "You might as well say it."
"yes."
Guo Dan was crying and said without tears: "Caomin just felt that the money was a little too little, which was not very suitable for Caomin's value. If you talk about it, I am afraid no one would believe it."
"Too little?" Wanli said in confusion: "What do you mean?"
Guo Dan bowed and said, "Your Majesty clearly understands that there is only 10,000 taels of silver here. The grass people just use their brains casually, and it is not just a little profit. Can grass people take risks for this little money? Haha."
Speaking of the latter, he couldn't help laughing again.
Wanli's face was already very ugly.
It turns out that we were too petty after a long time.
You don’t even look down on ten thousand taels of silver.
Zhang Jing's face was even green, and even the thick rouge powder could not be covered. "You are really a big tone! But your lie can't deceive me. If it were 100,000 taels here, you could say the same!"
"100,000 taels." Guo Dan thought for a while, nodded and said, "You can consider this."
"presumptuous."
Wanli finally got angry and pointed at Guo Dan and said, "You might as well come from the real trick."
Guo Dan was so scared that he trembled, knelt on the ground, and said with a look of unjust accusation: "Your Majesty clearly understands that the grass-roots people are really unjust. Speaking of this, it is actually related to Your Majesty."
Wanli frowned and said, "It has something to do with me?"
"Um."
Guo Dan nodded aggrievedly and said, "Your Majesty still remembers that Caomin once mentioned to Your Majesty that the task assigned to Caomin by His Majesty cannot be completed as soon as possible. I hope Your Majesty can approve Caomin to expand the scale of the Caomin. You were also present at that time."
Zhang Cheng nodded slightly.
Wanli also said: "Of course I remember, but what does it have to do with this money?"
Guo Dan replied: "After Your Majesty was kind enough to allow Caomin to expand the Yashang, Caomin suddenly found that the money in the family was not enough, so he wanted to find a partner and ask them to invest money to our Yashang, so that the expansion could be completed as quickly as possible. However, since it was on the eve of the Canon Ceremony, Caomin thought about waiting for the Canon Ceremony before talking about it after the Canon Ceremony.
At that time, Caomin only mentioned this matter with a few businessmen who had close contact with Caomin, but they didn't expect it. After they knew about it, they had to stuff silver to Caomin, hoping to decide on the matter earlier. However, Caomin is not a casual businessman, Caomin still hopes to choose a partner carefully, so he sets these silver as sincerity gold. So far, this silver is really not Caomin's. It can only be said to be a deposit, and they can still take it back at any time."
"All nonsense."
Zhang Jing shouted angrily and said, "If these silvers come out openly, why would you hide and hide it? Participate this silver in the small courtyard in the west of the city without leaving it at home? There would be ten thousand taels here."
Guo Dan smiled bitterly and said, "That's because my family's banknote was occupied by those donated silver. In order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, I asked them to put the silver in the small courtyard in the west of the city. I signed a contract with those merchants, which was clearly written clearly. If Your Majesty and the Supervisor did not believe it, the people of the grass can take the contract."
"Your Majesty, his words must not be trusted."
Zhang Jing first bowed to Wanli, then pointed at Guo Dan and said, "It is said that you businessmen are cunning and changeable. Today I have seen it. This is clearly an excuse you have prepared in advance. How could you give you money? Those who give you money are just merchants who participated in the enthronement ceremony. They said that they had to give you money. Listening to what you said is simply ridiculous. I think there must be shameful things in this. Your Majesty, you have seen many such things. Many corrupt and incompetent people have tried their best to cover up the fact that they embezzled and accepted bribes, and they are much more clever than this kid's statement."
Wow! Even if you are lying, I can still provide evidence. You just rely on your mouth and even say that I am not trustworthy. You really deserve to be from the East Factory. Whether it is black or white is all up to you. Guo Dan admires Zhang Jing's face. Whatever you say from his mouth is like a real thing. This is definitely a talent.
Of course, he also knew that once he entered the process of Dongchang, Zhang Jing had the final say in everything, and it was impossible for him to come out again.
Wanli nodded slightly and said, "It's a coincidence that the factory officials are right. Moreover, you are just expanding the teeth shop. Those people give you the fortress to have a total of 10,000 taels of silver. If you can't explain this clearly, I can only deal with it impartially."
Guo Dan said: "Your Majesty, it's not that Cao Magus is unwilling to explain, but Cao Magus believes that neither Your Magus nor the Supervisor have ever done any business. Even if Cao Magus explains the relationship, I am afraid that Your Magus and the Supervisor will find it difficult to understand, so it is better to see it."
"seeing is believing?"
Wanli looked at Guo Dan for unknown reason.
Guo Dan nodded and said, "The enthronement ceremony was over last night, and the mission of Caomin was completed. Therefore, Caomin ordered people to release the wind early this morning, saying that our Koujiaya Store plans to raise funds and expand, and maybe there is no need to wait until tomorrow. This afternoon, many businessmen will come to the door with money, rushing to cooperate with our Yamin, which is definitely more money than here."
Wanli looked surprised when he heard this and said, "Are you serious about this?"
Guo Dan said: "Caomin was summoned to the palace by His Majesty just after he finished his orders, but Caomin has absolute confidence. If Your Majesty does not believe it, he can send someone to Yaxing in the afternoon, and the truth will naturally be revealed."
Seeing that Guo Dan was so confident, Wanli couldn't help but believe it a little, and at the same time he was very hurt. I, the emperor, had been thinking about fighting wits and courage with the old man Xu Mengchun for 20,000 taels every day, but this guy was just a small businessman, and he just said something casually, and the others rushed to give him money.
I really hurt Dragon Lord!
"I don't believe you have such ability." Wanli snorted and said to Zhang Cheng: "Insider, you will come and see it in person later. I will allow you to take a car out of the palace."
Zhang Cheng hurriedly said, "I obey the order."
He thought to himself, it seems that His Majesty still prefers Guo Dan.
Although the emperor said this, he did not let Zhang Jing go. In fact, this matter should have been handed over to the Dongchang for investigation. It can be seen that Wanli is also very clear about what Dongchang does. He is guarding against Zhang Jing to frame him. This also shows that Wanli does not want to punish Guo Dan in his heart.
Guo Dan suddenly said, "Minister, can you not let others discover it when you go later?"
Zhang Cheng was stunned.
Wanli said curiously: "Why is this?"
Guo Dan sighed and said, "Caomin is just afraid. When those merchants see the inner minister, they will mistakenly think that this matter is supported by His Majesty's halo, which will lead to more people coming to send money and strive to cooperate with Caomin. Everyone is a businessman in the capital. He looks up but he is not a casual businessman after all. If he chooses this and does not choose that, he will offend people."
