Chapter 1037: Not a Good Man

Yu Chaoen will come to this point, and his paralysis and greed are inseparable, he is like a frog in warm water, greedy for a warm and comfortable environment, when the water temperature gradually rises, he does not feel the slightest, and when he feels the danger of high temperature, his body is already unable to move, and he is slowly boiled to death.

This kind of boiled frog in warm water is a very terrible phenomenon, which is common in many fields, and the source of this allusion is an experiment done by a later scientist, when the scientist put a frog into the hot water, and the frog immediately separated and jumped out of the water because it could not stand the sudden high temperature stimulation, so as to escape.

Then, the scientist put the frog into a container with cold water at room temperature, and then slowly heated it, but the frog has not had any excessive reaction, but because of the comfortable water temperature at the beginning and leisurely in the water, when the frog found that he could no longer tolerate the high temperature, he was already more than enough and was not enough, and was unconsciously boiled to death in the hot water.

This story tells people that in a superior environment, they should also be vigilant at all times, otherwise they may be happy and sad, and when dealing with opponents or to achieve something purposefully, if they do not master the method and act recklessly, it will not be easy to succeed, and they can first use similar methods such as boiling frogs in warm water to paralyze the opponent, so that the success rate will be higher.

For example, a student who is studying in school, at the beginning, may be able to study seriously, but after a long time, he will slowly relax the pace of learning, the enthusiasm for learning is not high, always perfunctory, can make do with it, feel that learning is the same as not learning well, and even, I feel that learning is useless, no matter how hard I study, I will do a very ordinary job in the future, so as to make excuses for myself, so that I can justifiably not study hard.

These seem to be small things, but in the long run, it will slowly wear down our will, weaken our combat effectiveness, hinder the development of our studies and future life, once the originally soothing stream faces the torrent of reform, just imagine what ability you have to compete with others, to compete, which is no different from a frog drowning in warm water.

Yu Chaoen's matter is the same, he just felt that there are many people who can give gifts to him, because he has the face and ability, he does not accept nothing, and even accepts money to do things for some businessmen, everything is so comfortable for him.

But a few years later, he suddenly discovered that he had accumulated a lot of wealth, but these mountains of wealth were about to become a mountain that crushed him, which made him a little unexpected.

Yu Chaoen, the poor and pathetic frog, has now felt the heat, but he has no ability to escape at all, because his ability has been corroded by the heat, he can only resign himself to waiting for himself to be boiled alive, he doesn't even have the strength to struggle.

Luck psychology is absolutely unavoidable, Yu Chaoen's railway bureau is the fattest errand in the Tang Empire, and no errand can be fatter than the railway bureau.

Since ancient times, there has been a truth, that is, the tree is a big wind, since the railway bureau is a fat gap full of oil and water, then, it will inevitably attract the attention of many people, and even, every move of the railway bureau has been watched.

And now, the income and expenditure of the railway bureau has taken a sharp turn for the worse, and the speed of change is so rapid that anyone with a discerning eye can see the problem, so how can these people not seize the opportunity to seek huge benefits for themselves.

Soon, a petty official from Luoyang ran to Yang Guozhong's mansion, and he wanted to impeach several leaders of the Luoyang Railway Branch.

After Yang Guozhong's henchman learned of the other party's intention, he immediately arranged for the other party to enter the mansion and immediately reported the situation to Yang Guozhong.

"A petty official of the ninth grade, or from the official of the ninth grade, came to my mansion, what is his specific position, why should he stay?"

Yang Guozhong didn't know much about the situation yet, and he seemed a little unhappy.

"Ah Lang, this person claims to be the deputy stationmaster of Luoyang Railway Station, named Li Xiaoer, he has a very important situation and wants to inform Ah Lang."

The henchman servant said.

"The deputy stationmaster of Luoyang Railway Station, this is a fat difference! What important things could he have? ”

Yang Guozhong muttered to himself suspiciously.

"Can't Ah Lang guess?"

The shrewd rhetorical question of the confidant servant.

"The spoils are unevenly divided."

Yang Guozhong smiled lightly and blurted out.

As a high-ranking official of the Tang Dynasty, if he can't even figure out such a thing, then he will be an official in vain.

It's just that the performance of the Railway Bureau has always been quite good, and the emperor has also praised the Railway Bureau on various occasions, so that all departments of the imperial court should learn from the comrades of the Railway Bureau and strive for better results.

In this way, even if Yang Guozhong knew about the cats of the Railway Bureau, he would not mention it in front of the emperor, so as not to make the emperor unhappy.

But now the situation is different, the income and expenditure of the railway bureau has declined greatly, and anyone can predict that the emperor will definitely be very unhappy when he learns about this matter, which provides a good opportunity for their impeachment.

But you can't just rely on prediction to do things, in case the emperor still favors Yu Chaoen, the person who impeached will face the risk of being hated by the emperor, this kind of risky thing, anyway, Yang Guozhong is definitely not willing to do it easily, otherwise, once you can't overthrow Yu Chaoen at one time, it will be equivalent to having one more enemy for no reason.

In addition, although Yang Guozhong probably knew about the affairs of the Railway Bureau, he did not have much substantive evidence, and he could not convict Yu Chaoen and other leaders of the Railway Bureau just by relying on the income and expenditure of the Railway Bureau.

But at this moment, the deputy stationmaster of Luoyang City Railway Station came, this person is an employee of the Railway Bureau, and he is also a small leader, since he can come to the capital to find Yang Guozhong, he must have the evidence of corruption in the Luoyang City Railway Branch, and leaving this person in the house is equivalent to mastering Yu Chaoen's life, as long as the time is ripe, he can put the other party to death.

It's just that there is a reason for doing everything, there is no irreconcilable contradiction between Yang Guozhong and Yu Chaoen, their relationship is not bad, everyone works for the emperor, as long as there is no conflict, then it can be regarded as a good relationship, but if there is a conflict of interests, then it may turn around at any time.

After Ang Lee provided several monopoly industries, Yang Guozhong earned a lot of money and was a big official who was not short of money, so he didn't have much interest in the poor oil, water and fertilizer of the Railway Bureau, at least, what he urgently needed was not wealth, but a higher status, and he preferred a high position compared to wealth.

Some time ago, because of the affairs of the evil servant, Yang Guozhong was very unsatisfactory, and his heart was terrible, and at this moment, he felt that the matter in front of him was an opportunity, if he could make a great contribution to the affairs of the Railway Bureau, then he could offset the negative impact of the previous incident.

Yang Guozhong still has no clue how to use this incident, he must first meet this Chen Xiaoer, understand some specific situations, figure out how much information Chen Xiaoer has, what caused him to betray his boss, and whether Chen Xiaoer is willing to listen to his words and work for himself, only after understanding all these situations, can he make the next decision.

"How does this person look?"

Yang Guozhong asked.

"At first glance, it's not a fuel-efficient lamp, and it doesn't look like a good person."

The confidant servant said, paused, and said, "You must see him first, but you can't be in too much of a hurry, at least you have to dry him for a few hours." ”

Yang Guozhong felt that it made sense, nodded, and asked people to send tea and snacks, he wanted to dry this guy well, to show that he was not something that anyone could see casually.

Although he knows that the other party is not a good person, in Yang Guozhong's eyes, there is no difference between good people and bad people, as long as they are useful to themselves, they are good people, and those who are useless to themselves are ordinary people, and those who are against themselves are bad people, he is so realistic.

And at this moment, he urgently needs to get rid of the impact of the evil servant incident on himself, he needs to make a great contribution to re-establish a good image, he feels that the arrival of this Chen Xiaoer is a good opportunity, and he must grasp this golden opportunity.

Chen Xiaoer had the intention of trying it out, and ran to Yang Guozhong's house, he knew that the Yang family had always been very favored, and it was always right to find Yang Guozhong, before, he also wanted to find Li An, but I heard that Li An was engaged in inventions all day long, and basically didn't like to ask about the affairs of the government, and Yang Guozhong held multiple titles of imperial history, and in the Tang Empire, the imperial history had the right to supervise and impeach officials, so he changed his mind and went to Yang Guozhong's mansion instead.

For Yang Guozhong, Chen Xiaoer had only heard of the big name, but had not seen it with his own eyes, so that when he first entered the mansion, he saw the housekeeper in Yang Guozhong's mansion and mistook him for Yang Guozhong.

And when he heard that Yang Guozhong happened to be in the house, he thought that he would summon him soon, but he waited left and right, and the flowers he waited for were all gone, but he never saw Yang Guozhong's shadow, only occasionally someone sent snacks and tea, but he was single-minded, where he had leisure to eat and drink, he wanted to see Yang Guozhong.

"You stop, when will the imperial history see me."

Chen Xiaoer angrily yelled at a maid who delivered a fruit plate.

The maid also saw that the other party had nothing to do, so she ignored it and walked away.

"Eh, a little maid dares to be so arrogant, no wonder she dares to beat the emperor's daughter, it's really against the sky."

Chen Xiaoer roared in an atmosphere.

Anyway, there was no one around him at the moment, and he was alone, and he wasn't afraid of anyone hearing it.

However, unfortunately, at this moment, Yang Guozhong had already come over, and not far away, he also heard Chen Xiaoer's complaints.

"It's not a good thing, huh."

Yang Guozhong heard Chen Xiaoer's complaint, stopped abruptly, and said to the servant beside him.

"Ah Lang, the little one didn't expect that this guy would be so hateful, he would dare to say such a thing, how to teach him a lesson, and ask Ah Lang to show it."

The servant was also very angry when he heard this, and spoke.

Yang Guozhong had a cold face, thought for a long time, and said, "You can stay outside, I'll meet this guy when I go in." ”

After saying that, he strode in.

"When will Goshi see me?"

Hearing the footsteps, Chen Xiaoer shouted anxiously, turned around and saw that it was actually a man who was even more imposing than the housekeeper just now, and immediately felt that he had made a mistake, and he felt that this person was very likely to be Yang Guozhong.

"Who are you?"

Chen Xiaoer asked cautiously.

"You are in my house, and you ask me who I am."

Yang Guozhong said coldly.

Chen Xiaoer was taken aback suddenly, his legs softened unconsciously, and he quickly knelt on the ground, trembling and pleading: "The lower official has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, and the imperial history forgives the sin." ”

"A small official from the ninth grade, the momentum is even greater than that of His Majesty today, you are very majestic! What a sin! ”

Yang Guozhong's tone was strangely sarcastic.

"Yu Shi forgives the sin, the lower official is really in a hurry, so he is offended, it is all the fault of the lower official, the imperial history has a lot, and there is no need to be as knowledgeable as the lower official."

Chen Xiaoer hurriedly apologized, and almost swore without cursing.

Yang Guozhong saw that the other party was kneeling honestly, and the anger in his heart suddenly calmed down a lot, and his face improved.

"Chen Xiaoer, deputy stationmaster of Luoyang Railway Station, you have come all the way to the capital, what important things do you want to tell me?"

Yang Guozhong asked.

Seeing this, Chen Xiaoer hurriedly bent his knees on the ground excitedly, and said: "Yang Yushi, I want to report, I want to report, I want to report Luoyang Railway Branch Langzhong Wang Gui, Wailang Wang Hu, Cui Bao, and the stationmaster Zheng Quan, as well as seven or eight officials in charge of finance, they are corrupt and bent the law, and put all the money that should belong to the imperial court into their own pockets, they deserve death, and they should all be arrested." ”

After a hurried complaint, Chen Xiaoer was tired and panting loudly, which showed that he was quite excited.

Yang Guozhong looked at Chen Xiaoer quietly, thought for a while, and asked: "Chen Xiaoer, these people are all your superiors, if there is no real evidence, slandering the officials of the imperial court is not a small crime." ”

After speaking, he looked at him coldly.

Chen Xiaoer frowned slightly, and said excitedly: "Yang Yushi, I have evidence, I really have evidence, I can prove that they deceived their superiors and subordinates and embezzled the money of the Mo Imperial Court, I can prove this." ”

"Can you prove it? How can you prove it, just by your mouth? ”

Yang Guozhong naturally won't listen to what he says, just believe what he says, otherwise, the officialdom in the past few years will not be in vain.

Chen Xiaoer sneered at the corner of his mouth, and said: "Don't dare to hide Yang Yushi, the lower officials have been busy for a year, and the freight accounts are recorded clearly, especially at Luoyang Railway Station, how many trains are sent a day, how much is entered into the account of each car, how much is concealed, and the lower officials are all recorded clearly, without the slightest omission, a few days ago, the lower officials even stole the financial account books. ”
