Chapter 352: Exposing one's shortcomings

Su Zhe was very interested in the Chamber of Commerce and chatted with Xu Huaiyi all the way, from the purpose and benefits of establishing the provincial capital to the role and significance of the existence of the Chamber of Commerce. When they arrived at the Martial Arts Academy, they still had more to say.

Xu Huaiyi reminded, "One bite cannot make you fat. The business association must be planned slowly, and the people who join the association must be carefully selected. The mess must not be accepted, so as not to create a mess and lose the meaning of organizing the chamber of commerce. There are also corresponding The rules must be set in advance, otherwise like your Su family, if your father enters on behalf of your whole family, you will still have no room to argue your grievances. "

Su Zhe looked excited, "I understand what you mean. When the time comes, we must take this situation into consideration."

"Well, then you should think about it first, come up with a general charter, details, etc., and then brainstorm ideas when there are more people."

"What about you? You won't participate?"

Xu Huaiyi said casually, "You come from a business family and have more experience in business than me. You also know the tricks and intricacies of it better. If you are in charge of it, you will definitely be much better than me. I won't do the same thing."

Su Zhe was stunned and couldn't believe it, "But it was clearly you who proposed this matter. If the Chamber of Commerce can really be established, you should be the first to contribute. But if you let me take the lead now, you are not afraid that I will pick the peach." "Put you aside?"

Xu Huaiyi asked, "Can you do it?"

In response to his magnanimous and calm gaze, Su Zhe's heart jumped a few times, but soon he stabilized himself. He shook his head, "Not really. I love money and fame, but I'm not that despicable or shameless. Take the credit for yourself, but if you let me do it, no matter whether I have the intention or not, I will get more of the credit.”

Unless he is Xu Huaiyi's subordinate and does things in Xu Huaiyi's name, but in that case, his face will not be lost. Besides, the Su family and the second prince will not allow it. He is not free.

Li Yunting followed the good example and asked, "Why?"

After class, he hurried back to his new house. Telling others about the renovations was not just an excuse. It was just him talking and the boys doing it. For example, making a fire kang, he only needed to produce a drawing, and other work could be done by himself. There are people below to do it, and Butler Yu is a capable person. With him keeping an eye on it, in just two days, the fire pit and fireplace were ready.

Xu Huaiyi, "..."

The most troublesome thing was solving the problem of using the toilet. It was barely a big project, but he had already drawn the drawings and moved back to his hometown with his wife before traveling through time. He had also changed dry toilets in rural areas into flush toilets, so he had experience. , don’t worry at all, just wait for the craftsmen to make and deliver what they need, and then work can start.

But Xu Huaiyi couldn't hold it back and asked, "Why don't you ask me why I moved out?"

Seeing the admiration on his face, Xu Huaiyi smiled and said, "You are too polite, haha, I am just lazy and don't like to worry. The more you work, the more you will get. From now on, all the business of the Chamber of Commerce will be your fault."

He also had some personal matters to deal with.

Su Zhe solemnly agreed, "Okay, but I still want to ask you for more advice and discussion on what I don't understand."

At that time, we can meet openly and openly every day.

He just got the glory of time travel and talked about it without giving anything at all. But Su Zhe is the one who really needs to put in the effort if he wants to make this happen.

In the afternoon, Xu Huaiyi told Li Yunting that he would temporarily move to a new house. Li Yunting was not surprised at all after hearing this.

Hearing this, Su Zhe showed admiration again, "Huaiyi is really an extraordinary person. I am so lucky to get to know Zian."

"No, there are so many servants in the house. Besides, I want to do it myself. Haha, doing it myself will give me a greater sense of accomplishment."

Xu Huaiyi didn't pay attention to his entanglement at all, "You have a lot of credit and a lot of work. Isn't that what you should do? I just proposed an idea. Implementing this idea is the most difficult thing."

Xu Huaiyi nodded, he really didn't ignore everything. If Su Zhe didn't understand and made a mistake, it would be a waste of good intentions and efforts, "Okay, then it's settled. However, I want to clean up the new house recently. I plan to move there for a few days. If you have something to do, try to stay there at noon. "

When Xu Huaiyi heard this, he couldn't help but beat a drum in his heart. Li Yunting looked like a boring gourd, but he was smarter than anyone else. Especially he also supported many people. He was better at asking for information than Su Zhe. He was afraid of the night It would be troublesome if he was targeted for what he was doing. Although he trusted Li Yunting, no matter how much he trusted, it was better for him to keep the secret to himself.

The scenery in each courtyard was not significantly modified, but was only slightly adjusted to better suit their family's aesthetics and habits.

"Okay, I know a lot of craftsmen who repair houses. Do you need my help to find someone?"

Li Yunting nodded, "Then I will go home and stay for a few days."

After hearing this, Su Zhe bowed to him movedly, "Zi'an is far less generous than Zian."

Xu Huaiyi choked and then said angrily, "I want to renovate the house myself. I can do it quickly so that my wife and children can move in next year when the begonia flowers bloom."

But looking at the current weather, I’m afraid we’ll have to wait until after the new year.

After dinner, Xu Huaiyi sent his servants far away. He went back to the RV and slept for a few hours. When the alarm clock he set vibrated, he opened his eyes and sat up, raised his hands and rubbed his face. People wake up.

Gu Huanxi was woken up by him and asked in a daze, "What time is it?"

Xu Huaiyi patted her back comfortingly and whispered, "It's two o'clock in the morning. It's still early. You can continue to sleep."

Gu Huanxi opened his sleepy eyes, "What about you?"

Xu Huaiyi said, "I have to go to work."

Gu Huanxi reacted immediately and said worriedly, "There must be guards at those two houses. You must be careful and don't rely on the RV to be safe. What if it's too late?"

That's a failure.

Xu Huaiyi agreed, "Don't worry, I will think twice before I act. With you and the child here, how can I afford to get into trouble?"

Gu Huanxi was still uneasy, but no matter how uneasy he was, he couldn't stop him, "Go ahead and leave me a note in the car when you get back."

"Okay, go to sleep..."

How could Gu Huanxi still sleep? But in order not to worry about him, she still closed her eyes obediently, and after he walked away, she sighed helplessly, and then she stayed on tenterhooks until Xu Huaiyi came back.

Xu Huaiyi's work went very smoothly this time, so he came back early. At that time, Gu Huanxi hadn't gotten out of the car yet. When she saw him, she immediately asked in surprise, "So fast? Did it go well?"

She asked, while her eyes looked at him. He was wearing a black night suit. There was no damage at all, and there was no smell of blood. His heart, which was raised high, finally slowly fell back.

Xu Huaiyi said while taking off his clothes, "It went very smoothly. I went to two houses and it only took me an hour. I have to thank them. The houses of the two families are relatively close to each other. When I went there in the middle of the night, the vigilance of the nursing staff dropped a lot." , just convenient for me to get in and out.”

Gu Huanxi asked, "No one found you, right?"

Xu Huaiyi said with a proud smile, "No, there was a curfew at night, and there was no one on the road. There were some people doing the watch, but I hid and walked. When I entered the two houses, I didn't disturb a few people, so I just walked away. The note was shot with an arrow. They focused on that end and stopped after a few steps. "I said you didn't even get into the RV."

It's useless to dare.

But Xu Huaiyi heard something else from these words, "Have you been up all this time waiting for me?"

Gu Huanxi smiled bitterly, "If you can't sleep, okay, don't worry about me. I can catch up on your sleep during the day, but you are having a hard time, right?"

Xu Huaiyi waved his hand, "I'm fine. I'll do this tonight and see how they react. I should be able to rest for a few days."

"I don't know what choice they will make."

"We'll find out when the morning session is over."

Xu Huaiyi didn't know how the morning court was going. He was still far away from going to court. He went to class in the morning as if nothing happened, and chatted and laughed with his classmates after class. No one could have imagined that he would stir up the changes in the court by himself.

At noon, there was no news coming from the college. Xu Huaiyi waited patiently. After dinner, Su Zhe was about to take him to discuss something, but he was called away by Sun Yu's servant.

When the master and apprentice met, Xu Huaiyi saluted and saw that Sun Yu looked bad, so he asked with concern, "Master, what's wrong with you? But what's wrong with you?"

Sun Yu waved his hand and motioned for him to sit down, then sighed and said, "Master, my health is fine. It's just that I'm worried..."

Xu Huaiyi's heart was moved, but he pretended to be curious and asked, "Did something happen? Can the disciples help?"

Sun Yu looked at him intently, "This morning, Mr. Zuo, the minister of the Ministry of Rites, and Mr. Xi, the minister of the Ministry of Personnel, suddenly asked the emperor for forgiveness..."

Xu Huaiyi's expression was calm, and he only showed a little curiosity about listening to gossip at the right time, "Then what? What crime did they commit?"

Sun Yu said, "I used my power to accept bribes and let down the emperor's favor."

Xu Huaiyi raised his eyebrows slightly disappointedly, "That's it? Hey, I thought I could eat some big melon, but it's just a tasteless pickle on the plate that is a pity to throw away. My excitement just now was in vain. "

Sun Yu asked, "Aren't you surprised?"

Xu Huaiyi smiled casually, "Master, what's so surprising about this? How many civil and military officials in the entire dynasty did not accept money? Jinshi choose officials, and junior officials want to be promoted. In addition to ability and political performance, it is also a common practice to use money to pave the way. It has been banned repeatedly throughout the dynasties. If you want to say it is hateful, it must be hateful. I am very tired of this kind of evil, and I hope someone can control it, but who can control it? Even the emperor...I am afraid he will turn a blind eye. Bar?"

Sun Yu said "Hmm" with a complex expression. He had always understood this kind of thing tacitly. As long as he was not so crazy about making money, even the imperial censor would not bother to impeach him. Is there any official who is honest and honest? There must be some, but there are too few. Such people are often excluded and suppressed. Very few can stand in the main hall because other officials do not allow it. After all, who wants to use other people's selfless and noble desires to set off their own despicable desires? Woolen cloth?

But today, Mr. Xi and Mr. Zuo actually blew themselves up. At that time, the hall was completely silent. They were all dumbfounded by the two men's unexpected actions. They couldn't understand why someone would take the initiative to die.

Manchao Wenwu looked at the two people with an expression of disbelief that they were possessed.

Even Emperor Jianxing was confused and couldn't help but wonder if there was a bigger conspiracy hidden here.

Whether there was another conspiracy or not, the ministers had not yet figured it out. They could only watch blankly as the two men knelt on the ground and performed hard. During the performance, they suddenly realized that they were unworthy of their trust in the emperor. When they got to the emotional point, they burst into tears and burst into tears. Heartbroken, he looked completely miserable and regretful.

The scene of two half-grown old men crying was very jarring, but they also managed to clear up part of their crimes.

In addition, other colleagues begged for mercy. In the end, Emperor Jianxing raised them high and lowered them gently. He only fined them for their greedy money and scolded them a few times, and the matter was settled.

The two of them were grateful and burst into tears again, but they were just crying with joy. The other ministers also took advantage of the situation to sing praises to Emperor Jianxing. After all, it was a good thing for them that the emperor did not pursue the matter. No one’s hands and feet are clean, the difference is just more or less, and whether there is a bottom line.

"Huaiyi, tell me, why would they expose such a scandal?"

Xu Huaiyi said without thinking, "It's very simple. It's because they can't hide it anymore, so they strike first, be lenient if they confess, and be strict if they resist. Both adults are smart people. The consequences of taking initiative and being passive, Still can’t carry it clearly?”

Sun Yu's expression changed slightly, "Is that what you think?"

Xu Huaiyi asked, "Otherwise? Is there any other explanation? Or does the master have other opinions?"

Sun Yu couldn't help but smile bitterly, "My master and your master all think in complicated terms, but we forget that sometimes the simplest and most easily ignored things are actually the truth..."

But after being immersed in the court for a long time, everyone has become an old fox, and they cannot be simple even if they want to be simple.

Xu Huaiyi said, "I just made a casual guess. The truth needs to be investigated carefully by the master. If there is something fishy, ​​you still have to take precautions early."

Sun Yu nodded and asked, "Then what do you think is the reason why they couldn't hide the fact that they accepted bribes?"

Xu Huaiyi smiled helplessly, "Master, you have to tell me first who they accepted as bribes, right?"

Sun Yu said, "Yao Changjun, a member of the Ministry of Rites."

Xu Huaiyi's acting skills are also good. When he heard this, he showed a complicated expression, which was both surprised and somewhat clear, "It turns out it's him."

"You should know him, right?"

"Well, to be honest with you, master, I still have some issues with the Yao family..." He talked about the conflict with the Yao family on the way to escape from the wilderness, and suspected that Xujiacun was arranged to settle in Hutian Village under the instigation of the Yao family. Finally, he said, "Previously A few days ago, the disciple and some classmates went out on business. On the way back, they came across a scene involving betraying one's body and burying one's father. I was bored, so I went to join in the fun. Unexpectedly, I almost got entangled..."

"and after?"

"Disciple is not stupid. He saw that the woman had bad intentions. She said she sold her body to bury her father. It was clearly a honey trap for me. Disciple must not fall for it, so she turned around and left. Afterwards, I asked Su Zhe to help me find out what's going on behind my back. Unfortunately, he didn't find it, but Yunting later found some clues, and the clues pointed to the Yao family. "

Hearing this, Sun Yu said angrily, "Why didn't you come to me for help when you encountered this kind of thing?"

Xu Huaiyi chuckled and said, "It's just a little trouble. If you can solve it yourself, you must try it yourself first. If it doesn't work, the disciple will have to shamelessly ask the master for help."

"How can you be so shameless when you talk to my master? That's a matter of course. You and I have established our master-disciple status. Shouldn't we protect you as our master?"

"Yes, yes, next time the disciple must open his mouth to the master first." (End of Chapter)
