The rise of the poor

Chapter 766

Zhu Ping'an's refusal without hesitation caught Zhang Guanku and others a little off guard. When they heard Zhu Ping's tongue smacking 1 taels of silver just now, they thought that Zhu Ping'an was shocked by the huge sum of 1 taels of silver. Zhu Ping'an has been bought.

However, Zhu Ping'an's solemn and unhesitating refusal caught them off guard and made them stare blankly.

Especially Langzhong Zhao, who was still aggrieved about giving Zhu Pingan 1 taels of silver just now, but now, now, he heard Zhu Pingan say that he must never accept it. For a while, the surprised Langzhong Zhao almost stared. Out.

Shame on it!
Not even 1 taels of silver!
Zhao Langzhong's eyes widened, he looked at Zhu Ping'an like an idiot, and then he became happy again. Zhu Ping'an did not want the 1 taels, so it meant that he could divide a thousand taels more.

After Liu Siku and others were surprised, they couldn't help becoming anxious. If Zhu Pingan took the money, everything would be fine.

If Zhu Pingan took the money, he would be in the same boat as himself and others. No, they were on the same boat, so naturally he didn't have to worry about checking the accounts or anything.After collecting the money, how can he check the account?

However, now that Zhu Pingan refused solemnly, and even put on a look of "clear breeze in his sleeves", Liu Siku and others naturally became anxious.

Could it be that there is not enough bait? !
It seems that Zhu Ping'an has a big appetite.

"Ahem, apart from the 'four-two balance', we in Taicang have many other practices, such as the 'Appointment Ceremony'." Jia Langzhong coughed, smiled slightly, and then continued to tell Zhu Pingan the next thing. Item routine, test Zhu Pingan.

"Ascension Ceremony" Zhu Ping'an's face remained unchanged.

"Well, this 'Appointment Ceremony' is not only the ceremony of appointment, but also includes the etiquette. Every new official in Taicang, including Zi Houru and other inspectors, as well as me and other Taicang officials, have an arrival ceremony. The silver below No. 7000 taels of silver will be given to each new official who arrives in Taicang, and 7000 taels of silver will be given to each festival during the Spring Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, and Mid-Autumn Festival within a year. 8000 taels."

With a smile on the corner of Jia Langzhong's mouth, he said slowly, what he said was very clear, no need to do anything if he wanted Zhu Ping'an to nod, and Zhu Ping'an could collect 8 taels of silver a year just for the arrival ceremony.

Why? !

Zhao Langzhong, who was on the side, was breathing heavily again, his hands were clenched tightly, and his veins were all exposed. It was 8000 taels, and he lost a few thousand taels of silver!As long as you don't give him the money from the bank, Zhu Ping'an said, we can share it.

With 8000 taels of silver, I can find someone to kill Zhu Ping'an seven or eight times!
Twenty-eight thousand taels!
The equivalent of RMB is close to more than 2000 million. In modern times, the amount involved in many high-ranking and corrupt officials is about the same.

What a big deal!
After hearing this, Zhu Pingan narrowed his eyes slightly, and the corners of his mouth curled up in disgust, and he had a deeper understanding of the filth in Taicang.

This appointment ceremony is filial piety by the following banks, why did the following banks bleed heavily to give the appointment ceremony?The bankers are not stupid, on the contrary, these businessmen are very smart, they generously give Taicang officials such generous gifts, and they will naturally get several times the benefits from Taicang.

The local tax payment, business tax, deed tax, salt tax, water discount, etc., are collected through the bank account and then sent to the bank.The silver numbers below are here to make huge profits. The silver taels they send are "do more with less, and the silver is at a low tide". Okay, for example, use silver that contains only 300% silver to act as pure silver that contains 500% silver. In this way, the bank account can send this 90.00% less silver. Over time, the bank account will earn more than it paid The appointment ceremony should be more than ten times richer.

The officials of the treasury received generous "appointment gifts", so they naturally turned a blind eye, and in the end it was only the treasury that suffered.

"I'm just inspecting Taicang, and it has nothing to do with their bank account. If you don't get paid for nothing, I can't accept this money."

Zhu Pingan shook his head, and once again refused without hesitation. This kind of money is obviously not on the table. It is a secret operation that harms the people and the country. In the end, it is the country and the people who suffer, so how can I accept it.

Still the same sentence, if the money is collected, how can I inspect the Taicang Bank.

Zhu Ping'an is not a saint, nor is he a stubborn person, but some money can be collected, and some money cannot be collected.

Min Zhi Min Gao, I can't even eat a bite, and I can't even lick it.

A gentleman loves money and obtains it in the right way.

Zhu Ping'an once again solemnly refused, which made the officials in Taicang very anxious. This time, even the greedy Zhao Langzhong was a little anxious.

8000 taels of silver, plus the 1 taels just now, this is almost 4 taels of silver.

Absolutely a lot.

Not too much for anyone.

Zhao Langzhong doesn't think that Zhu Ping'an is too little. The money, let alone Zhu Ping'an, who came from the countryside and settled down, is a large amount of money even for Yan Shifan, Mr. Yan Xiaoxiang. This amount is enough for Yan Xiaoxiang I bought a very fat and fat one from my father and it's missing.

Zhu Ping'an's posture of "strengthening the iron requires one's own strength" made Zhao Langzhong inexplicably guilty and worried.

Jia Langzhong, who had been smiling all the time, couldn't hold back the smile on his face, coughed and continued to seduce: "Ahem, Zihou, it's like this, we still have a few 'conventions' in Taicang, such as 'kubing' Filial piety', 'meal supplement', 'family supplement'."

"It's getting late, and I should worry if I don't leave my wife. These 'conventions', Ping An will ask you adults for advice in another day. Then, Ping An will leave first, and my lords, please stay."

Zhu Ping'an didn't wait for Jia Langzhong to finish speaking, he got up and said goodbye to Zhang Guanku and others with apologetic hands, bowed deeply, then turned and left.

Everyone in the room looked gloomy, watching Zhu Ping'an's back as he left.

"Snapped!"

"Damn it! Shame on your face! Damn it, I found someone to make this ignorant son of a bitch!" After Zhu Ping'an walked away, Zhao Langzhong slapped the table vigorously, cursing bitterly.

"What are you shouting for? Are you afraid that the people in Dongchang won't hear you?!" Zhang Guanku glared at Zhao Langzhong with a gloomy face.

"He, Zhu Ping'an, is shameless!" Zhao Langzhong muttered bitterly.

"He, Zhu Ping'an, really found out something, right?" Liu Siku was worried about this issue again.

"Don't mess yourself up. I don't believe that someone who doesn't even know how to calculate can find out what 'Ghost Hand Zhang' did. He is just bluffing and intending to sell it for a price." Zhao Langzhong pretended to be calm Said.

"Well, Mr. Zhao is right."

"When I saw Mr. Zhao say 8000 taels of silver just now, Zhu Ping'an's eyes lit up."

"This guy surnamed Zhu is really greedy, he has a really big appetite."

Other officials nodded in agreement.
