In the future.

He had also read some official reports that some entrepreneurs were arrested for investigation and were detained for several years, resulting in no one to manage the company.

Eventually, the entire market was occupied by competitors and the company went bankrupt.

It was not until the anti-corruption campaign and the official announcement that everyone learned the whole story from the news.

Zhang Tian was powerless in the future, and now he does not expect to change this era.

But since he has encountered it, he can't just sit there and watch, and he can help as much as he can.

Zhang Tian said: "I didn't expect that the emperor looks weak, but he cares about the people."

If there is no such rule, I'm afraid Xu Jingye would not survive.

Others dared not respond.

Who dares to respond to someone who says that the emperor is weak in public?

Even the clean officials such as Shi Shangshu usually have reasons to criticize the emperor in the court, but they dare not say such words that complain about the emperor's weakness behind his back for no reason.

Xu Jingye was frightened and stunned. Who is this person? How dare you say that the emperor is weak in front of all the officials? Aren't you afraid of being reported?

Is it a bit reckless for Wen'er to recognize this person as his teacher?

Zhang Tian said again: "Since you are sure that the store has fallen into the hands of others, as long as you find the store owner and follow the clues, you will naturally know the person behind the scenes."

"Prime Minister Cai, Minister Shi, what do you think?"

Minister Shi said: "This method is really abominable, and we must investigate it to the end."

His family is very strict in discipline, and knowing that it is none of their business, they are naturally not afraid of investigation.

On the contrary, Prime Minister Cai is worried that it is an evil act committed by an official who is attached to him, and then he will be implicated.

But now that things have come to this point, he dare not not investigate, so he can only adapt to the situation and cut off the tail to survive if necessary.

So, Prime Minister Cai said: "Lord Teng, please send someone to check Mr. Xu's shop. If the shop has changed hands, arrest the shop owner."

"If the shop has not changed hands, it may be a misunderstanding."

Although the prefect was sitting in the court, he was not judging the case.

Lord Teng, the prefect, had to say: "Yes. Come, send five people to Chaoyang Street to check Mr. Xu's shop."

"If it has changed hands, no matter what the other party's background is, arrest the shop owner immediately. If it is abandoned, report back quickly."

"Yes!!"

Five yamen runners set off immediately.

After a while, five yamen runners came back with two people.

Judging from their attire, one was obviously the shop owner, and the other should be the accountant.

As soon as the shop owner and the accountant entered the government office, they saw a large group of officials in the hall and knelt on the ground in fear.

"I, Chen Fusheng, greet you, my lords!"

The prefect asked, "Manager Chen, let me ask you, how did you get those two shops?"

Manager Chen said, "This... I bought them."

"Hmph! The owner is in jail, who did you buy them from? Tell the truth and you'll avoid being beaten."

Manager Chen shouted, "I bought the land deeds from Manager Xu's family. All the procedures are complete and in accordance with the rules. Your Excellency is wise."

The prefect said, "In that case, summon Manager Xu's family."

As he spoke, he was about to send the yamen runners out.

Zhang Tian waved his hand and said, "No need."

"It will probably take a lot of time to go back and forth like this. Why don't you let me interrogate you?"

Zhang Tian could see that the person behind the scenes was not simple.

Every step he took was legal on the surface.

If it weren't for his extraordinary status, he would really be unable to do anything to the other party from the legal level of this era.

In this case, Zhang Tian had to use some super-time means.

Otherwise, it would take forever to talk about it.

It would also easily give outsiders a bad image of interfering with the law.

"This..." The prefect was a little helpless and looked at the prime minister and the minister.

There are rules in the official system. Even Prime Minister Cai and Minister Shi came here to interfere in the name of listening.

They dare not blatantly exceed their authority and say they want to try the case themselves.

Like Zhang Tian, ​​who directly ignores all the rules and wants to try the case, I am afraid that the emperor would not dare to do so easily.

In history, there were indeed emperors who wanted to try the case in person on a whim.

As a result, they were rebuked by the ministers on the grounds that they were not familiar with the laws and regulations and intervened beyond their authority.

Of course, this also depends on the emperor's temper.

If you meet a fierce man like Zhu Yuanzhang, I am afraid that even the officials who rebuked him will be chopped off.

Prime Minister Cai and Minister Shi looked at each other and said, "How is Mr. Zhang going to interrogate him?"

Zhang Tian said, "It's very simple. I just ask him to speak out his heart."

"Hmm?"

Everyone looked puzzled.

If the other party had planned it in advance, why would he tell the story of what he had planned?

Is he going to torture him to extract a confession?

But that would be torture.The suspicion of Cheng Zhao is not in line with the image of an immortal.

Zhang Tian did not explain and walked to Shopkeeper Chen.

Put your wrist close to his forehead and let the sensor of the smart bracelet close to your skin.

Zhang Tian said: "Shopkeeper Chen, can you please do as I say?"

Shopkeeper Chen looked confused, not knowing who this young man with strange hair and face was.

But seeing that all the senior officials did not dare to speak, they naturally did not dare to resist.

He could only say: "No trouble, sir, just say it."

But he was secretly alert in his heart. No matter what the other party asked later, he insisted that it was bought through legal means.

Zhang Tian said: "Please read it after me: 123456789."

"Uh..."

Don't say Shopkeeper Chen, even Prime Minister Cai and Minister Shi were confused. What kind of interrogation method is this?

Is it that they read the numbers first and then dub the lines?

"Don't think too much, just read it."

"Yes." Seeing that he was just reading numbers and not telling secrets, Shopkeeper Chen read, "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine."

"Ding."

As soon as the voice fell, the AI ​​prompt sound came from the headset: "Captain, the brain wave and voice conversion matching has been completed."

This is a simple function of the smart bracelet, which can convert brain waves into voice and even images.

This technology was actually developed by scientists as early as the 20th century, and it can present what the human brain thinks in the form of images.

In the 21st century, various civilian bracelets can detect sleep brain waves to monitor people's sleep quality.

Slightly better ones can issue some simple commands through the headband, such as using it as a remote control to turn on the TV, turn off the lights, etc.

However, if this function is to be accurate, it needs to be close to the forehead skin.

In addition to playing VR games, wearing a smart brainband is not very convenient or beautiful, and the general accuracy of civilian use is not enough, so not many people use it.

The reason why I asked Shopkeeper Chen to read the numbers just now was to match the other party's brain wave fluctuations.

It can quickly identify specific brain waves as voices.

Zhang Tian asked: "What's your name?"

Shopkeeper Chen complained in his heart: "Didn't I just say it? Why are you asking again?"

Unexpectedly, as soon as he thought of it, a stereo voice sounded around him:

"Didn't I just say it? Why are you asking again?"

The voice was exactly the same as Shopkeeper Chen's. Shopkeeper Chen was startled and looked around.

Zhang Tian said: "Don't look around, continue to answer my questions."

"How did you buy the store?"

Shopkeeper Chen was panicked at this time, his lips did not move, and he thought to himself: "I can't say it was cheated even if I kill him."

As soon as he thought of it, the same voice sounded in stereo again.

"You can't say it was cheated, even if you kill me."

Zhang Tian asked again: "How did you cheat?"

Shopkeeper Chen was already scared, clenching his teeth tightly, but thinking in his heart: "Can't say it, can't say it, can't say it, I cheated the women of the Xu family, saying that there was someone in prison, as long as we raise enough money, let their master bail him out."

"In order to raise enough money, they had to sell the shop to me..."

"Hey... Why is my voice still loud... Ghost..."

"Ghost..." The last sound was shouted out through the mouth.
