Chapter 660
......
Jiang Mengli looked like she saw through Zhao Wujiang. In her opinion, the world was as black as a crow. Zhao Wujiang was an official, and he would use his official power to oppress others to seek money like other officials.
Zhao Wujiang smiled lightly and was not angry. Jiang Mengli said something intimidating but said something wrong, so naturally she couldn't touch his pain.
Li Yuanzheng stopped wiping the sword in his hand and said coldly:
"Young junior sister, you have lost your composure."
Feng Yuncai knew the inside story, rubbed his hands awkwardly, and smiled apologized: "Ms. Jiang, this matter is not as you thought."
Jiang Mengli snorted:
"As for your shortage of money, do I know that you have a close relationship with the Liu family? Could it be that they are not filial to you?
Or are you not rewarded on weekdays and have never been filled with your own pockets?”
"Jiang Mengli!" Li Yuan was stern:
"You are too much. Brother Zhao is upright, humble and kind, not what you say!"
"Hmph, he is obviously rich, and he is so big, and I don't know how much money he has greedy for the people. Now he is building Wuya Pavilion, and he actually says that money is short. It's really shameless!" Jiang Mengli hugged her hands:
"When I walk around the world, I hate people who are not only in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same or in the same
Now that he is here to raise money, he is clearly oppressing President Feng and others. I have seen many tricks in other officials!”
The atmosphere in the room became colder.
"It is a honor for Feng to help Mr. Zhao, and moreover, Feng also volunteered." Feng Yuncai saw the atmosphere calm and quickly smoothed out the situation.
"What are you willing to do? I just don't want to refute his face." Jiang Mengli's face was like Bingshuang:
"You don't need to be afraid, the Jiang family will make the decision for you."
Feng Yuncai was about to explain, but with a creak, the door was pushed open, and the other five honorary presidents of the Chamber of Commerce arrived with Feng Xueer.
They just heard that Zhao Wujiang came to the Chamber of Commerce and rushed over. As soon as they met, they saluted Zhao Wujiang:
"Mr. Zhao."
Zhao Wujiang was not surprised by the favor and disgrace. He did not look dissatisfied with Jiang Mengli's words. He still had a gentle smile. He nodded and signaled to several honorary presidents. He had seen one of them, and it was Liu Qingshan.
"Mr. Zhao, I heard that you are building your own power, can you have money?" Liu Qingshan smiled.
Zhao Wujiang smiled gently: "I have to look for some manpower, but now there is a shortage of money."
"Hey, that's right." Liu Qingshan was delighted. As expected, Zhao Wujiang donated his money to the national treasury, and now his power is gradually in short supply.
He took two steps at once, came to Zhao Wujiang, took out a stack of silver notes from his cuff, stuffed them into Zhao Wujiang's hand, and smiled flatteringly:
"Mr. Zhao, this is my kindness, don't dislike it."
"There are also me and me." The other honorary presidents rushed forward, took out money and stuffed it into Zhao Wujiang's hands, looking anxious that Zhao Wujiang refused to refuse.
Li Yuanzheng was stunned at the same place at this moment. What's going on? Why did these people come up to give money before Brother Zhao even spoke?
Jiang Mengli's expression was stiff, her heart was overturned, shocking sweeping over her body, causing her chest to undulate and her breathing slightly rapid.
She was extremely confused. Didn’t Zhao Wujiang want to threaten President Feng? Why didn’t he speak up yet, these senior officials of the chamber of commerce come to deliver money? The flattery on their faces could no longer be described as voluntary. It was like Zhao Wujiang looked down on them if he didn’t accept the money.
Feng Yuncai also took out the silver notes and respectfully handed them to Zhao Wujiang:
"Young Master Zhao, don't think it's too little. Just do your best to hope that the forces of Guige will take root, sprout, and flourish."
Several honorary presidents stuffed money into Zhao Wujiang's hands, and the expression on his face was so relieved, as if he had done something that made him extremely comfortable.
Zhao Wujiang took the silver notes and counted them with his eyes, and found that there were nearly 100,000 taels. He was caught off guard with the enthusiasm of several honorary presidents, but his thoughts were surging, and he soon understood the whole story.
"In addition, Lord Zhao, there is still some money here." Liu Qingshan took out a brocade bag from his arms. The brocade bag was the size of a palm, and it was stuffed. He said respectfully:
"There are the money raised by our chamber of commerce here. I want to contribute a little to the country. I hope Lord Zhao will be successful!"
At the same time, the other honorary presidents and Fengyuncai spoke one after another.
"Yes, in order to fill the treasury gap and unwilling to hurt the people, Lord Zhao eliminated the previous policy of increasing taxes. Instead, he took risks and let the court officials lose their pockets regardless of the criticism of the people. This is a great thing!"
"Mr. Zhao was the first to donate all his money, which led to a shortage of money now. I was very moved when I learned about it."
"Abandon small and become big. This righteous act is like the magnificent skylight shining on my heart. After discussing, we were deeply inspired by Lord Zhao and determined to contribute to the country!"
"The act of filling the national treasury will reach border wars, ensure the military pay and food of the soldiers, and the people will be sent to the disaster area, so that Lord Zhao can be very kind."
