"This is a murder case, and the person I killed was an official, Young Master Zhao!"
Xu Shu didn't say anything else to avoid hurting his face.
However, the meaning was obvious. Murder cases were the government's business. Merchants were rich, but how could they handle it?
He had already decided to leave after drinking.
Since someone in Luoyang had already recognized him, his next step was to escape to a place even further away, Jing State!
Zhao Feng smiled but didn't say anything.
Actually, after recognizing Xu Shu, he already had a plan in his heart.
At this moment, the manager of the Luoyang branch, Zhao Yi, walked over.
"Young Master, someone has come to visit!"
The fish had taken the bait!
"Yuanzhi, you can wait and see how to resolve this!”
Zhao Feng smiled and ordered Zhao Yi to bring Xu Shu to the backyard.
Xu Shu was stunned, but he quickly reacted. There would be more people coming later. He was carrying a murder case and it was not good to show his face in public.
"Young Master Zhao is really a smooth talker!”
Xu Shu couldn't help but think more highly of Zhao Feng and decided to stay and take a look.
.
After a long while, the various stewards brought in their master's visiting invitation.
The merchants were of the lowest class, and the nobles of Luoyang naturally couldn't bring themselves to visit them. However, even though they said they were disdainful, they were very honest.
Zhao Feng knew that even though he said he was here to visit, he was actually here to ask for money.
Coincidentally, he did not lack money. No matter which family came, he would leave with a smile on his face.
Zhao Feng gave them different amounts according to their official positions and their future potential.
Suddenly, the Zhao Family Chamber of Commerce was bustling with people.
"Brother, there are already many high-ranking officials and dignitaries here. Why haven't you mentioned buying an official position?”
During the reception, Zhao Yun saw that the money in the backyard was getting lesser and lesser, but Zhao Feng did not mention anything about buying an official position. She could not help but ask.
"There's no hurry. This is a matter of great importance.”
Zhao Feng had already made plans. A commoner who wanted to meet the emperor would definitely need someone to introduce him, and the most suitable people were naturally the two eunuchs.
Liu Hong, Emperor Ling of Han Dynasty, once said: Zhang Rang is my father and Zhao Zhong is my mother.
He wondered if Liu Bang and Liu Che would be so angry that they would open their coffins if they found out that their descendants were their parents.
However, if he wanted to ask Liu Hong for help, he should go to them.
...
In the afternoon, the number of people who came decreased. Zhao Feng was waiting for two big fish, and the first one to come was actually Zhao Zhong.
However, it didn't matter. The two eunuchs only needed to deal with one of them.
Zhao Zhong also sent a eunuch over.
"These years, the Zhao family's business has been doing quite well, and news of it has spread to the capital. Young Master Zhao, what are your plans for making such a ruckus in the capital?”
Zhao Zhong's subordinate, a eunuch, was actually so pretentious.
However, Zhao Feng wouldn't argue with him and answered honestly,"Naturally, I want to see Minister Zhao."
"Oh? It was probably not easy for Minister Zhao to find time out of his busy schedule.”
The young eunuch rolled his eyes and said in surprise.
In other words, he had to consider whether his gift was thick enough.
"Well said, well said. I definitely won't disappoint Minister Zhao!”
Zhao Feng smiled and waved his hand. Two large boxes containing at least a million dollars were carried out.
This was for the young eunuch, so Zhao Zhong would naturally have to pay for it.
The young eunuch looked over nonchalantly, but when he saw it, he was dumbfounded.
here. So much money was actually for him?
One million yuan, even if he were to be a small yellow door for the rest of his life, he would not be able to get so much!
Since he had given him so much, he naturally wasn't worried about Minister Zhao and led the way.
Money could make the devil turn the millstone. It was very useful in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, where demons were everywhere!
...
Zhao Zhong's mansion was exceptionally luxurious, far surpassing many of the loyal officials of the current dynasty.
A group of carriages dragged heavy boxes and stopped in the spacious front yard.
It was obvious that this old eunuch was corrupt.
When he arrived at the mansion, the eunuch who led the way had disappeared. No one came out either, and Zhao Feng was left alone for a long time.
This arrogance was even greater than Tian Zi.
Of course, Zhao Feng wouldn't argue with a dead person. The Spirit Monarch was going to die, and none of these eunuchs would be able to escape!
After a while, someone finally came and brought Zhao Feng to a pavilion in the backyard.
Zhao Zhong sat there alone, looking down.
There was only a cup of tea on the table, and it was obvious that he didn't plan to serve Zhao Feng any tea.
"You are that merchant from the Zhao Clan Chamber of Commerce?”
After waiting for a long time, Zhao Zhong finally noticed that someone had come.
His words and actions were filled with disdain.
"That's right. Zhao Feng of Chang Mountain greets Minister Zhao.”
Zhao Feng wasn't annoyed and continued to bow.
Seeing this, the surrounding eunuchs left after confirming that there was no danger without Minister Zhao.
Soon, only Zhao Feng and Zhao Zhong were left in the pavilion.
"The weather is really hot. It's said that there's a kind of Shu brocade in the Zhao Clan's Chamber of Commerce that can be worn in summer and cool into autumn.”
After a long while, Zhao Zhong finally spoke.
It was cold in the spring, how could it be hot? He was obviously hinting at the gift.
Of course, Zhao Feng understood. He didn't want to argue with him and directly said,"I did have such a plan back then. As for the effect, I'll have to let Minister Zhao personally experience it. I just happened to bring a lot of Shu brocade with me this time.”
"Oh?"
Zhao Zhong's eyelids lifted slightly as if he was very surprised, but then his eyes quickly dimmed.
Obviously, just a few pieces of Shu brocade were not enough to satisfy his appetite.
However, Zhao Feng was prepared.
"The Shu brocade this time is different. Please take a look!”
"Although Shu brocade is rare, it is still Shu brocade. What's the difference?”
Zhao Zhong was slightly disappointed. He had thought that Young Master Zhao would give him a generous gift after making such a big fuss. He did not expect it to be Shu brocade.
However, since it had already been delivered to the residence, he still decided to take a look.
Twenty carriages were lined up in the front yard. After Zhao Feng nodded, all the boxes were opened.
The dozens of large boxes were all high-grade Shu brocade, but Zhao Zhong's expression darkened even more.
Just as he was about to turn around and leave, the Shu brocade was lifted, and underneath it was a dazzling golden artifact!
Dozens of large chests were filled with countless gold!
Under the rays of the setting sun, it shone brightly, blinding everyone's eyes.
Zhao Feng wasn't surprised by everyone's reaction.""Minister Zhao, please take a look at the 20 million yuan!”
Zhao Zhong was dumbfounded. He had been a constant attendant for so many years, but he had never earned so much money!
This was 20 million! 20 million for nothing!
It was definitely a generous gift, a huge gift!
"Young Master Zhao is very thoughtful. Please come to the residence for a chat!”
"Serve the tea, serve the good tea that His Majesty gave!”
Not only did Zhao Zhong's expression change drastically, but he also changed the way he addressed him.
The difference in attitude was like the difference between cloud and mud.
It wasn't that he had changed his view of merchants, but that Zhao Feng had given him too much.
