”Ai ai …” Brother, what are you so anxious for? ”Bro, I was just thinking for you, wasn't I?”
”Do you really think that no one will steal your silver just because you are so honest?” What a joke, send the silver to the Ministry of Revenue for your high and mighty conduct! No one will thank you. They will only say that you are stupid! ”
”Don't you like my mention of the Ministry? ”It's not like we ordered this fee right away. There was such a rule even during the era of the imperial edict …”
”I heard …” That Zhang Jing from the Military Intelligence Service is called Li Tuo, and she has been walking very closely with Li Lianying, the Empress Dowager Xi and the Fifth Master! ”
”Ci Xi wanted to be promoted to his official, but this brat refused to do so. Even if he decided to become an official, Zhang Jing would be done with it!”
”Why? In the end, he was still a lowly official! ”Even more than an official …”
”In Dao Guang era, there was a Han Lin with the surname Feng. I can't remember his name, but he had a good relationship with Lin Zexu and his group … It's said that he once counted how much money this plate cost in private! ”
”I don't know if it's statistical or not. It gave me a fright ….” ”There are four divisions of the Department for Purging Officials, and they spend over three million silver taels a year just to pay for their food!”
”If we include the Military, Board of Punishments, Department of Revenue, work department, Department of Rites … Each year, these small officials would have to pay 10 million silver taels as their division fees! ”
”This is still the market price of the Daoguang years. These few years, war has been fierce, and each place has more accounts to pay for. This bunch of grandsons have really made a fortune!”
”I am only counting the number of yamen's in the capital. What about yamen of the envoys that are on the border feudal lords?” What about the Lower Prefecture Dao County? Hehe … Isn't this what the world is all about? If you don't covet him, everyone will covet him! If not, then no! ”
”Although I, Yi Kuang, am greedy for some silver, brother, don't worry. The project of handing over to brother will guarantee your quality …” But if I don't do it, aren't these projects cheap for outsiders as well? ”
”Those bunch of grandsons, they're all subcontracting!” ”Every layer is covered in skin. In the end, you also spent money, and you don't even have the quality of the work, so it's even more harmful …”
”Brother, don't go …” Don't be angry! Can you give me half of those projects? ”
”Give me the expansion of the barracks and the project of patrolling the night grass shed!” It's only 1560,000 silver, isn't it? ”Give it to brother, I'll take it …”
Yi Xuan no longer had the strength to refute, he was so infuriated by Yi Kuang's twisted logic that he turned around and left, while Yi Kuang chased him from behind!
Many officials had already seen the performance of the two princes and could faintly hear their conversation. Many of them sighed and shook their heads, thinking to themselves, just how many years do we have left?
Yi Yeyu didn't care about the 600k silver, what he was thinking about was how to deal with the situation in the future!
Today, he was clearly going to win all of them, but he was stirred up by Ceng Guofan. The old marshal used his little finger and pulled the situation that he had created with so much effort!
This kind of person was truly terrifying. He really wanted to kill him!
Although there were only a few thousand old soldiers of the Xiang Army that Ceng Guofan had brought over from Zhuozhou, but he did not dare to do so.
But since you dared to take action, then there's no need to think about it anymore! Jiu Shuai was waiting for an excuse to rebel!
Who would still have the face to be a high ranking official? He didn't want it anymore. Since he couldn't beat him, then he had to make peace and go and make up for it!
