I, the strongest poisoner, am called the living king of hell by the empress

Chapter 4



The emperor was very angry, but the emperor's son was very angry.

Gao Feng turned around in surprise and looked at Gao Yang. The father and son's eyes met in the air, which was meaningful.

He seemed to have seen this scene before.

Wu Zhao raised her lips and said, "Speak."

"If this plan satisfies me, then you, Gao Yang, will not only be blameless, but also rewarded."

The eyes of all officials were focused on Gao Yang. Compared with the initial contempt, after Gao Yang's plan to eradicate the root of the problem, they were obviously much more afraid.

I'm afraid this boy's plan is a bit sinister.

Gao Yang's voice rang out in the Golden Palace.

"From the perspective of a tea merchant, his goal is very simple, to hire people at a low price to open up wasteland, and to complete the opening up as quickly as possible."

"But most of the local people are lazy, and opening up wasteland is tiring and hard. Even if people are hired at a high price, the tea merchants have no prestige in the local area, and the people will only fish for three days and dry the net for two days."

"If you want to achieve your goal, you have to play with human nature."

"My method is very simple, just a scheme!"

"This scheme is called the monkey show scheme."

Wu Zhao sat up straight, and her phoenix eyes fell on Gao Yang.

She asked: "How to play with human nature, and how to set up a scheme?"

"If I were a tea merchant, I would first hire a dozen people to open up wasteland at three or five times the salary."

Gao Yang's voice resounded throughout the Golden Palace, and Wu Zhao frowned.

"That's it? This general thought you had some clever ideas, but it turns out to be just like this." Wang Zhong sneered.

What is playing with human nature, setting up a trap? He really thought Gao Yang had thought of a solution, but after all this time, he still hired people at a high price.

Cui Xinghe also shook his head.

Gao Yang remained calm and continued, "In the past few days, the people were ordered to concentrate on reclamation. If the people were lazy or sleeping, they would just scold them with a face full of anxiety, pretending to be more like them."

"The people are lazy, and most of them are secretly disobedient. In their eyes, I am so anxious that I jump up and down like a funny monkey."

"They may even sneer in secret and continue to do their own thing."

"But after a few days, I will bury a few golds in this barren mountain, and this trap will be set!"

As the last sentence fell, the empress sat up straight in an instant, with a pair of shocked eyes.

Bury gold in the barren mountain!

This plan is very clever, and she even knows what Gao Yang will do next.

All officials were also in an uproar.

Gao Yang continued calmly, "The gold was buried in the barren mountain. The people had been concentrating on reclaiming a piece of land. If it was dug out, it would be impossible to hide it from other people."

"Even if the people who dug out the gold were quick and swift, they could not hide it from the people who worked with them."

"Once there was a quarrel, I would take the opportunity to make them hand over the gold with a nervous look on their faces, and even give them some silver to ask them not to disclose the news of digging gold from the mountain, so as not to let others fight for it."

"With this kind of behavior, it won't take a few hours for the barren mountain to be discovered. The news that there is a gold mine will spread throughout the village. "

"Only one or two pieces of gold will expose the evil of human nature."

"These people who witnessed the gold digging will surely be restless under the temptation of the gold mine, like ants on a hot pot. The people who dug the gold will mobilize their whole family to secretly go up the mountain. This is human nature. At that time, the rumors will intensify. At this time, without any wages, all the old and young will carry hoes up the mountain to dig the ground overnight."

As soon as these words came out, all the officials were shocked and looked at Gao Yang.

The fundamental reason why the people are lazy is that it is hard and tiring to open up wasteland. Even if the wages are three times, there is no motivation.

But if they think there is a gold mine under the barren mountain, driven by the rumors, especially the first person, the villagers will rush to dig the mountain, hoping to get rich overnight.

Even after Cui Xinghe figured it out, he had to say it was wonderful.

Although this plan still has flaws, it is definitely feasible!

Gao Feng also looked at Gao Yang in astonishment, his eyes wide open.

Is this his son?

Is he getting the idea?

"Excellent, using gold to draw out human greed, so that the whole village, young and old, will go up the mountain to open up wasteland."

"Later, bury gold randomly in different places on the mountain, so that the people will firmly believe that there is a gold mine under the barren mountain. This will not only save a lot of labor for opening up wasteland, but the villagers will also open up wasteland overnight."

"The son of Minister Gao really did not disappoint me."

"This plan is very good."

Wu Zhao said in admiration, and her phoenix eyes fell on Gao Yang with satisfaction.

Gao Yang smiled, "Your Majesty, wait a minute, this game is not over yet."

"On the contrary, the most dangerous part has just begun."

Wu Zhao was a little surprised when she heard this, "The most dangerous part is just beginning."

The place has just begun? "

All officials also looked stunned. They had achieved their goal of quickly opening up wasteland. Is this just the beginning?

"It's a remote mountainous area and the people are lazy. The local county magistrate will definitely not be able to make any money. There is a high probability that he is a corrupt official. He can bribe him with huge sums of money before taking action."

"If the county magistrate helps, this situation will get twice the result with half the effort."

Gao Feng's expression changed and he reprimanded, "Niezi, what are you talking about?"

But Wu Zhao waved his hand, "It doesn't matter. Don't say this is hypothetical. Even in the remote mountains where I work, are there still many corrupt officials?"

"Gao Yang, go on, what happens after bribing the county magistrate?"

Gao Yang said with a smile, "The barren hills are the private property of tea merchants according to the laws of Daqian. The villagers went to the mountains to dig for gold overnight, which has violated the laws of Daqian."

"If I were a tea merchant, I would immediately report it to the government and send officers and soldiers to get the people and order them to hand over the gold they dug out."

"People are jealous. Most of them don't want others to live well, so they will definitely report each other."

Wang Zhong's scalp was numb and his eyes were stunned, "You don't pay a penny, but you let the people open up wasteland for free. Even the gold dug out must be returned."

"This plan is too poisonous!"

Wang Zhong looked at Gao Yang with a look of horror.

Wu Zhao also nodded in admiration, "First bribe the county magistrate, and then use the evil of human nature to get back the gold that was put in earlier. Although this strategy is a bit sinister, it completed the most efficient land reclamation with the least labor."

"This is still a good idea."

Cui Xinghe's face was gloomy. He was one of the four great talents in Chang'an, the eldest son of the Cui family with seven surnames and five Wangs. He was the number one scholar in the dynasty, but at this moment, he was overshadowed by Gao Yang.

This was hard for him to accept.

He said solemnly, "Bibbing the county magistrate is not a small amount. At most, the villagers will only return the gold, but is it worth risking beheading?"

Gao Yang smiled and said, "Master Cui, are there not many cases of collusion between officials and businessmen in the world? Who would go up and bribe them with huge sums of money? Corrupt officials can be seen by just walking among the people."

"And the viciousness of this plan doesn't stop there. What if these golds are gold on the outside and copper on the inside?"
