The rise of the poor

Chapter 927: The Way of Accepting Bribes
To give gifts and bribes to Yan Shifan, it is definitely not necessary for King Yu to go in person, the officials of King Yu's mansion can just go, but in order to show that King Yu attaches great importance to Yan Shifan, the status of the officials who go to give gifts cannot be lowered.In this way, the range of subordinate officials who are suitable for the task of giving gifts and offering bribes is fixed among Gao Gong, Chen Yiqin, Yin Shidan, and Zhu Pingan.

So who should go?

Dang Yu Wang swept the crowd around, and finally looked at Zhu Ping'an.

Since this idea was proposed by Zhu Pingan, no one is more suitable for this task than Zhu Pingan.

Seeing this, Zhu Pingan couldn't help coughing, and said with a wry smile: "Ahem...Your Highness, I inspected Taicang last month and uncovered the theft of the Taicang bank, and Yan Shifan who was involved was also fined 12000 silver. Now, Yan Shifan hates me so much, I'd better not go..."

In fact, one aspect of Zhu Pingan’s concern was due to such concerns. Of course, the most important thing was out of human considerations. One should not be too greedy, as long as he had the credit for making suggestions, and the credit for the specific implementation should be given to others.

After Zhu Ping'an finished speaking, King Yu thought for a moment, nodded slowly, then turned his gaze to Chen Yiqin, cupped his hands and said, "Master Chen, you have to go for a walk this time."

"I would like to serve Your Highness." Chen Yiqin stood up happily, "But just to be on the safe side, let Zihou accompany me for a walk."

Uh, Mr. Chen, didn't I just say that, Zhu Ping got up and was about to say what I said just now.

"Zi Hou, I can understand your concerns, but don't you think that if you accompany me to give gifts and bribes to Yan Shifan, it will make Yan Shifan feel more conquered?" Chen Yiqin looked at Zhu Pingan with a smile, and used a move Zizhispear attacked Zizhidun, blocking all Zhu Pingan's excuses.

"Well, Zihou, why don't you take the trouble to accompany Master Chen for a walk." King Yu nodded slightly upon hearing this.

Uh, well, King Yu has spoken, so Zhu Ping'an has no choice but to agree.

Because Prince Yu's mansion was closed, there was no time to delay the matter of bribery and gifts. The soldiers were divided into two groups to inquire about the market and raise money...

Around ten o'clock in the morning, Zhu Ping'an and Chen Yiqin rushed from Prince Yu's Mansion to Yan Mansion.

The two of them carried 1500 taels of silver notes with them, which was money given to Yan Shifan.It is easy to inquire about the price of Yan Shifan's acceptance of gifts. In the circle, it is almost a "clear price". According to the inquired market, almost 1300 taels is enough, but for the sake of insurance, I still made up an integer of 1500 taels of silver.

Of the 1500 taels of silver bills, 1000 taels of silver were obtained by King Yu from Concubine Du Kang in the harem, 150 taels of silver were lent to King Yu on his own initiative after Feng Bao heard about it, and the remaining 350 taels of silver were given by Gao Gong and Chen Yiqin. , Yin Shidan and Zhu Ping'an got together.

Chen Yiqin, Gao Gong and Yin Shidan each collected 100 taels, and Zhu Pingan collected 50 taels of silver.

Although Zhu Pingan collected the least amount, King Yu was the most moved, because King Yu knew that Zhu Pingan had just been fined 160 taels of silver by his father not long ago. ... Zhu Ping'an was so poor that he had to open Zhu Ji fast food restaurant to sell pigs into the water. For the 50 taels of silver, I am afraid that Zhu Pingan has already given out all the money Zhu Ji earned and all his family's inheritance.

King Yu's Mansion is not close to Yan Mansion, and it takes too much time to walk or sit in a sedan chair. Zhu Ping'an and Chen Yiqin rode directly to Yan Mansion.

Chen Yiqin cared about Yu Wang's Suici, on the way to Yan's mansion, he rushed all the way.

Seeing the treatment of the former horse, the dark horse that killed Matt was probably afraid of being whipped, but today he was very competitive. Zhu Pingan was not able to raise the whip, so the guy ran wildly, surpassed the former horse in a few breaths, and ran to the front .

In about two quarters, Zhu Ping'an and the others came to a street in front of Yan's Mansion.Going all the way along this street is the Yan Mansion.

After arriving at this street, Zhu Pingan slowed down his horse, and instead of walking along this street, he turned his horse's head around and headed towards another alley.

"Hey, Zi Hou, I made a mistake. The Yan Mansion is in front, not over there."

Seeing this, Chen Yiqin couldn't help calling Zhu Ping'an.

"Hehe, no mistake, Mr. Chen just follow me."

Zhu Pingan reined in Shamate's dark horse, turned around and waved to Chen Yiqin, and said with a mysterious smile.

"Zihou, I have been to Yan's Mansion several times. Just go along this street. You are going in the wrong direction." Chen Yiqin shook his head, looked at Zhu Ping'an and said seriously: "We still focus on big things, and we will do it later." It’s not too late to do other things after finishing the important things.”

"Master Chen, are you going to hand over the money directly to Yan Shifan like this?"

Zhu Pingan couldn't help laughing when he heard the words, turned his horse's head, rode to Chen Yiqin's side, and asked with a smile.

"Well, isn't that what bribery is all about?"

Chen Yiqin nodded and looked at Zhu Pingan with a strange expression.

Seeing Chen Yiqin's reaction, Zhu Ping'an couldn't help but think of the situation when he visited Yan Song back then and was reminded by the fat man behind him mockingly.

"Master Chen, Yan Shifan won't accept such a gift." Zhu Pingan smiled slightly and shook his head.

"Huh?" Chen Yiqin didn't understand why.

"This way of gift-giving is easy to leave clues and hidden dangers. A smart person like Yan Shifan will not accept it." Zhu Pingan glanced around, and then explained to Chen Yiqin in a low voice, "Go forward, there is an alley in front of you." , there is a study in the alley, named "He Nian Study", which was opened by Yan Nian, the housekeeper of Yan Mansion, with the word "He Nian". You can spend as much money as you want to buy a fan. The clerk in the study will mark the price you paid behind your name post and transfer it to the Yan Mansion through the back door. At that time, this fan will be the passport of the Yan Mansion , the disciples of the Yan Mansion will give priority to those who hold the fan of He Nian's Study Room to visit."

"Uh, this Yan Shifan is really a genius. He actually thought of using this method to accept bribes." Chen Yiqin heard the words, and soon figured out the way and the deep meaning of it, and couldn't help but be amazed by Yan Shifan's way of accepting bribes.

The difference between Yan Shifan's bribery lies in He Nian's study, which normalizes the superficial legality of bribery through fan trading.

As for fan prices? !
This is a matter of your wish, and besides, there are paintings and calligraphy on the fan. In a sense, calligraphy and painting are priceless, as long as you like it, no amount of money is too much.

Taking a step back, even if there is any problem, this Crane Nian Study was opened by Yan Nian, so what does it have to do with me, Yan Shifan? !

"This little thief Yan Shifan really deserves the title of 'Jiajing's No. [-] Ghost Talent'. Fortunately, Zihou is with him today. Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't even be able to enter the gate of Yan's Mansion. Even if I do, I won't be able to do this job well." Chen Yiqin couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"Master Chen is serious. These are nothing. If I don't say anything, someone in front of the Yan Mansion will tell Master Chen."

Zhu Pingan shook his head modestly.

"Don't be humble, Zihou."

Chen Yiqin smiled slightly, and then said, "Then let's go and see He Nian's study."

After speaking, the two turned their horses and headed towards He Nian's study.
