Chapter 204
"What are you afraid of? We didn't do these things ourselves, so there's nothing to be afraid of!"

Sun Chuhe's face was full of indifference.

When a person gains power, he will become more courageous, just like the Sun Chuhe in front of him.

Considering himself a relative of the emperor, he doesn't know the heights of the sky and the earth when doing things.

They are the ones who minted counterfeit silver coins and annexed lands outside the city.

When they do these things, they almost always find other people to do it, and they never do it themselves.

It seems unbelievable, but in fact, these things are so magical.

Sun Chuwen is Sun Jie's father-in-law, and Sun Chuhe is Sun Chuwen's younger brother.

With this level of relationship, where would there be a lack of people to do things?
To put it bluntly, Sun Chuhe used Sun Jie's name to recruit a group of speculators by beckoning in Xi'an Mansion.

When a person has enough power, the people who work under him will flock to him.

This is a very normal thing, and it has hardly changed since ancient times.

Just like Fan Jin in "The Scholars", when he didn't pass the Juren examination, he was a disgusting existence in the ten miles and eight towns, but after he was admitted to the Juren, he immediately became a well-known master in the ten miles and eight towns.

There are countless people who come to climb.

Sun Chuhe in the room was full of momentum, and he didn't pay attention to Sun Jie's previous prohibitions at all.

"Let me tell you, my lord, looks like a ruthless person, but that's outside.

For those of us old people, that is called a friendliness.Now, my eldest brother is now the father-in-law of your lord. With this relationship, even if you find me in the future, it will be no big deal! "

Sun Chuhe was still bragging there, thinking that this relationship could keep him.

Those people around began to flatter him one by one.

All kinds of flattery kept rising in the room, disgusting.

Amid the waves of praise, Sun Chuhe felt elated.

His chin is lightly raised, his nose is upturned, that is called pride, that is called arrogance.

As everyone knows, he is doing a terrible thing.

Death is imminent, and I don't know it yet.

The night was smeared like thick ink, and the night wind was cold, sweeping the snow and slapping it on the ground.

Sun Chuwen's home is still the same one as before. It doesn't look small, but compared with his current status, it still doesn't fit well.

The people below have said more than once that they asked him to change to a bigger house so as not to dishonor Sun Jie's name.

But Sun Chuwen didn't care about those things, and wouldn't change anything.

I also often advise others, saying that the level of status does not need to be reflected by a house.

There are worldly experts who live in the wild, and there are mediocre people who live in mansions.

It should be "not happy with things, not sad with oneself".

His awareness is quite high, but his brother Sun Chuhe does not have this awareness.

The stove in the greenhouse is burning vigorously. This is a coal-saving stove that Sun Jie bought from Hyundai. It not only saves coal, but is also convenient to use and has strong firepower.

There was a kettle on the stove, and the water in it was gurgling.

Sun Chuwen and Sun Chuhe sat opposite each other in front of the coal stove.

The coal stove has a table-like surface on which two teacups are placed.

"Drinking tea in the middle of the night is not good, drink more boiled water! You have gained weight these days, less wine and meat, the adults have said that it is not good to be too fat!"

Sun Chuwen looked at Sun Chuhe who was sitting opposite him, picked up the kettle, and poured him a glass of boiling water.

Sun Chuhe didn't take it seriously, and retorted: "People are born to eat meat and drink alcohol. What kind of boiled water do you drink? It's really too light!"

"You kid, you really don't know the east, west, north and south once you get in power. You have to know, the more cautious you are at this time." Sun Chuwen persuaded.

How could Sun Chuhe listen to these words, he didn't even drink a sip of water, he just kept beating around.

"In a few days, take me to the mint with you? We are two brothers, and we are not outsiders. It's not a big deal to go in and have a look!"

"Just think about it, don't talk about it in front of me in the future. Where do you think it is? It's a restricted area. Without the order of the adults, even the king of heaven and I can't do it.

Remember, no one is allowed to enter without an adult's order! "

Sun Chuwen said in a cold voice with a gloomy face.

This is not the first time Sun Chuhe has said this, before that, he has said it several times.

But Sun Chuwen wouldn't bring him in at all.

For Sun Chuwen, the mint was the most important thing, and no matter what, he couldn't bring idlers in.

In Sun Chuwen's mind, Sun Chuhe was just an idler.

Even though the two of them were still related, it was the same.

"These few words, I'm not an outsider, go in and see what can happen? Besides, this mint is in charge of you, as long as you don't tell me, who knows!"

Sun Chuhe still didn't give up!
Sun Chuwen still said that, don't take it in.

No matter what Sun Chuhe said, it was the same rhetoric.

When Sun Chuhe saw that Sun Chuwen was an old pumpkin, he couldn't help it.

Flicking his sleeves, he walked outside sullenly.

Sun Chuwen looked at Sun Chuhe's back, and said: "I can tell you, you'd better not do anything crooked, our Sun family's style of family can't be ruined by you!"

Sun Chuhe, who had already walked out of the room, was upset when he heard Sun Chuwen's voice, and replied casually: "I see, why do you keep talking about these things in front of me, really."

Shaking his head, he walked into the snowstorm.

With a lack of human heart, Sun Chuhe will always pay the price for his greed.

At dawn, Chen Hu had almost finished investigating the matter.

In the study, Sun Jie looked at Chen Hu in front of him and asked, "Are you sure, it's really Sun Chuhe?!"

This person, Sun Jie knew, was Sun Chuwen's brother.

We met a long time ago.

In Sun Jie's impression, this is a mediocre and incompetent person with a fat head and big ears. He is still timid. In front of Sun Jie, he has always been submissive and can't be used.

It never occurred to him that this person dug the foot of the wall and actually dug his own head.

Chen Hu replied: "He is not the only one, he is the main one, gathered nearly [-] people from Qin and Shang, and ran around with dogs. At the end, the general has found out the place where they minted silver coins, and has also mastered the details of their annexation of land. evidence!"

"It's really good. Take precautions against everything. It's hard to guard against house thieves. I didn't expect to be taken advantage of by house thieves today!"

A fierce light flashed on Sun Jie's face.

"Keep all the evidence well, and at the same time strictly monitor the few of them, so that no accidents will happen.

This time, I will uproot them all and make them into an iron case, a big case! "Sun Jie said.

"Order!"

Chen Hu didn't care who that person was, he only obeyed Sun Jie's orders.

After Chen Hu walked out, Sun Jie took people to Sun Chuwen's home.

Today is the weekend, it is a day off.

Under Sun Jie's rule, a weekly rest system was implemented, with five days off and two days off.

If there were no accidents, Sun Chuwen would be at home.

Sun Jie took a few entourages, walked around the street twice, and then went to Sun Chuwen's house.

It's still the same greenhouse, but now the status has undergone earth-shaking changes.

Although Sun Chuwen is Sun Jie's father-in-law, in the not-too-distant future, Sun Jie will become emperor.

Sun Chuwen didn't make up his mind because of his identity.

In the warm room, he sat down.

Sun Jie chatted with him, picked up the teacup on the table, and took a sip of tea.

Then he asked: "I remember Taishan has a younger brother named Sun Chuhe, how is this person now?"

Sun Chuwen was slightly surprised, but he didn't expect Sun Jie to ask him this question.

"He's just like that now, dawdling around in the Qinshang Guild. I'm not in charge recently, and he's in charge of all the big and small matters in the Qinshang Guild!"

Sun Chuwen didn't know about the shitty things Sun Chuhe did, and thought that Sun Jie was just asking casually and didn't think deeply.

"Do you know if he did anything out of the ordinary?" Sun Jie asked.

As for what Sun Jie said just now, he couldn't hear anything.

Now that we've talked about it, if you still can't hear anything, it will be in vain.

"Did he do something?" Sun Chuwen asked hurriedly.

"He, Taishan will understand in the future!" Sun Jie shook his head.

Nothing was said, everything was said.

After a few more gossips, Sun Jie left here.

Of course, Sun Chuwen could hear the subtext of what Sun Jie said, so he hurriedly asked for Sun Chuhe to come over.

In the warm room, Sun Chuwen looked at Sun Chuhe standing in front of him with a livid face, and asked loudly: "What have you done, tell me now!"

Sun Chuhe was slightly taken aback, he didn't know what happened to Sun Chuwen today.

"Brother, what's wrong? Why can't I understand?" Sun Chuhe asked.

"Snapped!"

Sun Chuwen suddenly slapped the table in front of him, and shouted: "You don't know yourself? The adults have come to my place today, do you think the adults don't know what you do?

Don't you understand the seriousness of the matter?Don't you understand the reasoning here?Still hiding there! "

How could Sun Chuhe admit it, he has always been stubborn.

Man, once he has a chance, he will never admit it unless the facts are put in front of him.

Sun Chuwen really couldn't ask anything, and Sun Chuhe had no intention of repenting.

In the end, all the rhetoric, all the persuasion, turned into sighs.

The matter has come to this point, and there is nothing he can do.

As for putting down his face to protect him, Sun Chuwen, who was familiar with Sun Jie's temper, knew that this would not work at all.

Sun Chuhe didn't care, and walked out carelessly.

It may be that there are too many peaceful days and no sense of crisis.

He didn't even realize that Sun Chuwen was saving him today.

……

It was another night, and Sun Jie personally led the soldiers and horses of the personal guard battalion, and stopped in front of a manor outside the city.

Chen Hu stood behind him, holding a flashlight in his hand.

Spots of light are reflected on the gate.

"My lord, this is where they mint silver coins. In the past few days, the general has been leading people to control this place!
The molds, raw materials, and various things inside are all inside.The artisans who participated in the minting of silver coins had all been dismissed before the Lord came back, but the general had already arrested them, and they are now in the prison of the governor's yamen! "Chen Hu said.

"Break open the gate, I want to go in and have a look!" Sun Jie said.

Chen Hu gave the order and led his men to break open the gate.

Under the leadership of Chen Hu, Sun Jie came to the warehouse.

Inside were some rough molds, and some lead blocks.

There are even some semi-finished silver coins lying quietly on the ground.

Sun Jie picked up a few of them at random. The silver content of these silver coins was pitifully low, even lower than the fake silver coins Sun Jie had seen before.

With a casual drop on the ground, the silver coin was torn apart.

This is a lucrative money-making business.

From ancient times to the present, no one does the business of losing money, and some people do the business of beheading.

"Take away all the things here. This time, I will do it myself and make this matter a solid case!" Sun Jie pointed at the things in front of him.

Logically speaking, there was no need for Sun Jie to personally handle the case, and Chen Hu could settle the matter by himself.

But this time, Sun Jie wanted to implement a new business tax system, and in addition, he wanted to deter those so-called "veterans" who had an arrogant and domineering mentality. Therefore, he had to do it himself to deter dissidents.

The size of the case is closely related to who handles it.

Sun Jie himself represented everything.

In the dark night, Sun Jie brought his troops to the door of Sun Chuhe's house.

His family's house is much more luxurious than that of Sun Chuwen's.

In the whole city, there are not many people who can compare with his family.

Chen Hu led the people and directly opened the door.

The soldiers behind rushed in like a tide, and it didn't take long before they dragged out Sun Chuhe who was like a fat pig.

He kept yelling: "What do you want to do? Do you know who I am? Where do you have the guts?!"

He didn't shut up until he saw Sun Jie standing in front of him.

"Sun Chuhe, do you know why I dragged you out tonight?" Sun Jie lowered his head, looking at Sun Chuhe who was pinned and kneeling in front of him.

Sun Chuhe shook his head again and again, panicked, "I don't know, I don't know!"

"Snapped!"

With a big mouth, Sun Jie pulled up, took out a fake silver coin from his body, and threw it on the ground.

With the sound of jingling, the fake silver coins fell to the ground.

What fell on the ground with the fake silver coins was Sun Chuhe's frightened heart.

"My lord, what does this mean? What does this mean?!"

Looking at the fake silver coins on the ground, Sun Chuhe panicked.

"What do you mean? I should be the one asking you this!"

Sun Jie said coldly.

Now that things have developed, if he doesn't understand what's going on, he's really an idiot.

At the same time, he thought about what Sun Chuwen meant when he called him over.

If he looked back at that time, there might still be a glimmer of hope, but now, all the options are gone.

Sun Jie went out in person, and the matter was irreversible.

Sun Chuhe had even guessed what his consequences would be.

All of this was caused by Sun Chuhe himself.

If he could bear the greed in his heart, would he be in this situation today?

In the final analysis, I am still too greedy!
