Chapter 206

"But forget it, I am not a stingy person. If Gao Yang can do his best to come up with a few brilliant strategies for Da Qian, that would be a good thing."

While speaking, she looked at Li Long again, "There is no need to hand over the 500 taels of silver. In addition, I will reward you with 5,000 taels of silver as a reward."

"I am never stingy with meritorious officials!"

Li Long was stunned, and then immediately shook his head, "Eating the monarch's salary, being loyal to the monarch's affairs, and sharing the monarch's worries—serving Your Majesty is what I should do."

"I absolutely cannot take these 5,000 taels!"

If I take this money, my conscience really won't be able to pass.

Looking at the righteous and awe-inspiring Li Long, Wu Zhao's eyes suddenly warmed.

She sighed, "If all the officials in Da Qian were like Lord Li, why worry about Da Qian not prospering!"

She had investigated Li Long; he had been serving in the palace for decades, yet he was penniless and never took money. His style of integrity was astonishing.

Now, facing the 5,000 taels of silver she gave him, he was still unable to be moved by poverty and unable to be subdued by force, which really surprised her.

But no matter how well Wu Zhao could see through people's hearts, she never expected that some people just don't take money for decades, just waiting to set up a persona first, and then take this big wave...

Gao Yang returned to the Duke of Dingguo's Prefecture all the way.

Only after stepping into the prefecture gate did he feel like he had lived a lifetime.

Only then did he know why Zhu Yuanzhang in his previous life formulated that corruption of 60 taels would lead to skinning and stuffing, but he almost killed all the officials in the world, and there were still corrupt officials everywhere.

This comes faster than anything else.

Just after stepping into the mansion, Gao Yang saw Gao Feng standing in place with his hands behind his back.

As soon as Gao Feng saw him, he immediately stepped forward and touched him all over.

"Father, if you do this again, I'm going to scream!"

Gao Yang said while dodging.

When Gao Feng heard this, his expression, which had improved, suddenly sank.

"You wicked son, what are you babbling about? It is only right and proper for me to search you. Even if you scream until your throat breaks, it's useless."

"Who dares to manage me?"

Gao Feng's face sank, and he snorted coldly.

But not being able to find anything on Gao Yang made him breathe a heavy sigh of relief.

Gao Yang didn't dare to speak, only able to protest with his eyes.

The mutual dislike between him and Gao Feng was something that would probably never change in this lifetime.

After searching, Gao Feng turned and left, soon reaching the inner residence, where he saw the majestic Gao Tianlong.

"Father, no boxes were carried into the prefecture, and this wicked son has no silver ingots or valuable paintings on him; he should have restrained himself."

Gao Feng said.

But when Gao Tianlong heard this, he sighed.

He poured a cup of hot tea and said gloomily, "Not finding anything is the biggest trouble."

Gao Feng was instantly stunned.

Gao Tianlong tapped the table and sighed, "Forget it, children and grandchildren have their own blessings. At worst, it's just a nine-generation elimination game."

When Gao Feng heard this, his eyes widened.

How did it get so serious that it became a nine-generation elimination game?

Gao Yang returned to his room all the way.

"Young Master, Technician No. 98 is at your service."

Not long after, Green Radish's weak voice sounded, and then Green Radish focused on relaxing Gao Yang.

But she soon discovered Gao Yang's difference.

"Young Master, you seem a bit wrong today, feeling burdened with worries and very much wanting to relax."

Gao Yang looked at Green Radish and said somewhat unwillingly, "Green Radish, tell me honestly, did you lie to me?"

"You are actually eighteen, right?"

Green Radish: "???"

Seeing Green Radish's eyes, he gave up completely.

He regretted a little that he should have brought back the woman who was beaten by Prince Rong until she had big bumps.

At this time, he felt he really needed a cigarette and betel nut to think about how to set up a trap with these 500,000 taels of silver to make money.

But as soon as this thought arose.

He was suddenly shocked.

"Cigarette?"

"When it comes to making money and poisonous plans, if I could make cigarettes and betel nuts..."
