Chapter 633: Major Corruption

When William heard this, he immediately frowned, although Sister Weili tried her best to put an end to this kind of thing, but the huge Lorik Kingdom still inevitably had a few incidents, but these were reported to William by William's inspection department, and the dark dagger secretly investigated and the inspection department investigated openly, and the two sides were directly convicted after verification.

Basically, there is no Dark Dagger to investigate directly, and let Tus describe it as a bad word.

The inspector department is in charge of Urrim, he is not very busy in the army, most of the things are handled by Norwen, the mature and steady Norwen handles things to make William feel at ease, but he does not plan to let Urimu be idle.

After all, he was one of his most trusted people, how could he cause such a big waste of resources, so William put this jealous Kriza man in charge of the work of the inspection department, and let him supervise the operation of all departments in the country and whether there was corruption.

After all, if the inspectorate doesn't have a strong figure to suppress it, the other departments may not care about this inspectorate, and the powerful figure of Urimu is enough to make everyone jealous of the inspectorate, after all, he was one of the first people to follow William.

"Your Majesty!" Tus looked at William's expression and knew that he must be full of doubts now.

"My man just came back from abroad to hand over the information, and when he passed by the tax card, he found that the tax card was a little strange!"

"Originally, our implementation in the Kingdom of Lorik was to encourage commerce, attract foreign merchants and support local merchants, there should be a large number of caravans passing through, but that tax card is completely different, there are only a handful of caravans passing there, which is completely inconsistent with our situation!"

"So a few of them began a secret investigation, and after the investigation, it was discovered that the tax collector in charge of the place actually extorted the caravans!"

"After collecting the taxes that should have been paid, he also blackmailed the caravans, and the amount of extortion ranged from five hundred to eight hundred silver coins, because the merchants who have the ability to come to our country are relatively powerful, and the goods escorted are also relatively valuable, so they will choose to hand over this money, and according to our investigation, the amount involved may have reached forty or fifty thousand silver coins!"

"Although some people chose to resist, he contacted the nearby garrison and slaughtered the caravan, snatched the goods and sold them himself!"

When William heard this, the situation was so bad that even the term bad could not be described, and it should be said that it was miserable.

"Why haven't I heard from the inspectorate yet? Instead, you're reporting it? ”

William asked, frowning.

"You know Your Majesty, your request for us is to be fast, so we investigate much faster than them, and besides, Your Majesty, please give me all due diligence, if the Inspectorate is located, it is impossible for them not to know about this matter!"

William knew what he meant, he just wanted to say that the people in the inspectorate might have colluded with the tax officer, but he didn't say it in the open for the sake of William's face.

William nodded to show that he understood, and then said, "Okay, I know about this matter, I will deal with this matter, you go out first!" ”

When Tus had gone, William called in the squire outside the door, and said, "Go and call the Earl of Urimu to me, and say that I have something to look for him!" ”

After bowing and saluting, the attendant left the place to call Urimu.

William was in no mood to deal with government affairs anymore, and frowned as he leaned back on the wide bench.

He quickly came to his study, looked at William and frowned, and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?" ”

William let out a long sigh and said nothing else, handing the document that Tus had just given him to Urimu.

He began to browse through the documents, but as he read them, his face began to become more and more ugly, he put the documents together on the table, and said to William, "Is this information true?" ”

William looked him in the eye and said, "This is the intelligence sent by Tus, the Dark Dagger investigates!" ”

As soon as he heard that it was the Dark Dagger who was under investigation, he immediately dispelled all his doubts, he shook his head and said, "I don't know anything about this matter!"

"I know you don't know, I came to you to ask how you plan to solve this matter!"

Hu Limu was silent for a while, and then said: "This matter must be dealt with strictly, but Your Majesty, the tax collector of this tax card is your blood relative!" ”

William froze for a moment when he heard this, and then he remembered it.

He did arrange one of his blood relatives into a tax card, when William inspected them, he found that this person really had no ability, he didn't want it, but because it was the son of his other uncle, he had to arrange a place.

But he was overwhelmed, and William had to put him in an inconsequential place, where an ordinary tax card was where he was placed.

At that time, William never imagined that the position he arbitrarily arranged for him would cause such a big incident.

William pondered for a moment, and then said, "Even if it is my blood relative, this kind of thing must not be tolerated!" Otherwise, once this opening is opened, there will definitely be endless troubles! ”

"I'll have Tus investigate the specifics of this matter, and then send a letter to one of my uncles, whose son has committed such a crime and must not be tolerated!"

William knows that once this corrupt person is pardoned because he is a relative of William, then other nobles and officials who are related to William will also follow suit, and they will be pardoned in the end anyway, if they can't be caught, they can make a lot of money, and after they are caught, they will be pardoned at most.

Although William's blood relatives and nobles may think that William is too unkind because of this, he does not take it seriously.

He just thought it would be nice to have some of his own relatives in his vassal and official list to strengthen the stability of the kingdom, rather than relying on these blood nobles against other vassals.

Therefore, if the entry of these blood relatives into the cabinet is detrimental to the interests of the country, he will definitely not be soft.

William soon sent a letter to his uncle, and after Tus's investigation, William learned that during the three months of his tenure, he had extorted more than 50,000 silver coins, which greatly damaged the commercial development of the Kingdom of Lorik, and that trade route had few merchants to the Kingdom of Lorik.

More than 50,000 silver coins, what a huge amount, his father was an earl, and his income in a year was not as much as his extortion for three months.

William was furious when he learned of this situation, it was the first time that such a major corruption had happened in the Kingdom of Lorik, and he had to be hanged for this person, otherwise he would definitely not be able to make an example of the monkey!
