"You...... What did you say? Huang Lan's face obviously changed. The Huang family did this, otherwise where would the Huang family be able to come up with so much money, it would just be an embezzlement of the treasury.

"It's really a good means, this sky-high security deposit, taken out from the government, and then returned to the government, seamlessly embezzled, but because of this threshold, all businessmen were blocked out.

Also, if it weren't for the supervision officials of the Beiping project, who threatened those workers to stay and forcibly buy the Qu family's materials on joint charges, would you be able to resume progress within half a month?

This matter has always been done by the government, and your Huang family has really brushed off the responsibility, and other businessmen have also paid attention to your Huang family, but they don't know that the government is paving the way for you.

Those sky-high deposits haven't returned to the local government yet, right? If someone says that the government has done so much, I am afraid that if the materials are handed over to the Huang family in the future, they will be criticized, right? These, Master Huang Lan, do you want to report it too? ”

From the very beginning, Liu Zhang and Fan Lixiang knew that there were businessmen in the government, and there was a problem with what fair bidding should be done, and later these two conditions came out, and Liu Zhang immediately thought of the positions tailored for some people in later generations, what height from 165 to 166, which university graduated, how old or something.

Immediately sent someone to secretly start with the sky-high security deposit and building materials, and soon found out two clues.

The government has always been soft and hard, so that all the manpower and material resources of the Qu family remained, but the Huang family on the side was saying that they had that strength, and in the end, it must be the government that directly handed over the Qu family's manpower and material resources to the Huang family.

But because it seems reasonable for the government to do this, no one will pursue it, but they will feel that the Huang family has taken advantage of it.

And the sky-high margin is even more secretive. If you don't deliberately check it. Liu Zhang would not have known that many local governments had opened convenient doors for Huang Lan.

In order to be seamless. Huang Lan reached an agreement with many local officials, asking them to lend the treasury funds in their possession to the Huang family and transfer them to the bank, and then told the bankers in advance that they would withdraw cash in Beiping, and let the bank escort the cash to Beiping.

This matter has been done for a long time, and the date of the bidding has been calculated, and when the bidding time comes, the Huang family will of course be able to come up with a sky-high deposit.

However, the sky-high margin is only a margin and will not be spent. The Huang family can still do the Qu family's project, and as soon as these sky-high deposits are handed over to the yamen of the Beiping project superintendent, they can immediately return to other local government offices.

The whole process is just a trip to Beiping with money from other local governments, and this matter will never be uncovered if you don't need to investigate.

Liu Zhang ordered Wang Lei to investigate, and after learning the news, he really gasped, and at the same time felt angry in his heart.

A small Huang Lan actually pulled so many magistrates into the water. If this case is thoroughly investigated, it can be described as unprecedentedly large. The consequences are too severe.

But Liu Zhang quickly figured it out, this is a problem that Liu Zhang and Huang Yueying had expected before, but did not pay much attention to it.

That is the quality of officials from poor families.

It's not that the poor officials must be of low quality, but the officials who were suddenly promoted from the bottom are definitely inferior to those inherited officials in terms of resistance to the temptation of materials and money, which is an objective fact and cannot be denied.

In particular, the lower-level officials of the Sichuan Army were more or less trained by surprise, and in order to allow them to quickly replace the Shi clan, Liu Zhang used the method of only giving two examination subjects like later generations.

One is to let these people be able to handle official documents, and the second is to have their own opinions on some things, that's all.

These people are all poor people or even people who used to just know how to read, and after being trained by the academy derived from Cui Zhouping, they took surprise exams, and in order to cope with the four subjects, they will only learn these two subjects.

In this way, many corresponding qualities cannot be cultivated, and it is expected, most of them are not as resistant to materials as those who grew up in honeypots.

Liu Zhang didn't feel it before, because these people had a sense of crisis, and their inferior quality did not break out.

They relied on the Sichuan army to seize power from the Shi clan, and if the Sichuan army was defeated, everything for them would be in vain, so they all desperately hoped that the Sichuan army would be strong.

In the past, the Sichuan army fully gave full play to the two advantages of these people, one was loyalty due to a sense of crisis, and the other was hard-working.

But now, the Sichuan army dominates the world, the clan, Hebei has captured a group, Jiangdong has executed a group, and the clan formed in the four hundred years of the Han Dynasty has lost six or seven hundred thousand, and the foundation has been uprooted, and Liu Zhang is about to become emperor.

What other concerns do they have?

Perhaps, they think it's time for them to enjoy the good days.

Under this mentality, this embezzlement of the treasury is completely justified.

First, the Huang family is powerful, and they must cooperate with the Huang family in order to improve or not to fall.

Second, Huang Lan will definitely give them benefits if she cooperates with them, maybe the bribe may be an official position, and it is difficult for them to refuse if they feel that they should enjoy it.

Thirdly, there is no risk at all in this matter, it is just a trip with the money of the government treasury.

There is no risk, the benefits are huge, or help the powerful, and fools don't do it.

Huang Lan listened to Liu Min's words, his heart was shocked and inexplicable, he really couldn't figure out how Liu Min could have so much energy, he could find out about things in a different place, and fully understand his plan.

Immediately, Huang Lan thought of it, this is not Liu Min asking for bribes at all, but Fan Lixiang, it must be Fan Lixiang who checked his identity, although Fan Lixiang is just a general, but as a veteran of the Sichuan army, he used to serve as a state pastor in Jingzhou, and later he was in the military and political affairs of Xiahetao, how could it be possible without energy?

It is said that Fan Lixiang, a woman, is insidious and vicious, and Huang Lan has finally seen it now.

"What do you want?" Now that Liu Min said it through, Huang Lan also decided to open the skylight and say something bright, "Even if it's Fan Lixiang, you can't bear me, let me tell you, the King of Shu is about to become the emperor, you make a big deal and implicate so many officials, it won't do you any good to you and Fan Lixiang." ”

"Sure enough, he is worthy of being the person in charge of the Huang family's business, so smart, he actually guessed General Fan, okay, I don't lie to you, I did this for General Fan.

Don't talk nonsense, I don't care how much benefit your Huang family gets, and General Fan and I don't want you a penny, but you must suggest to your cousin Huang Quan Huang and your cousin Huang Yue Huang to recommend our General Fan as the general of the Zhu State. ”

"General Zhuguo? Fan Lixiang is a woman, so ambitious. Huang Lan thought that when Jingzhou was at the beginning, Fan Lixiang continued to win over the people's hearts for the sake of her official position, and she did not hesitate to cover the lord, and sure enough, this woman was power-hungry.

"With the prestige of General Fan of my family among the people and his seniority in the Sichuan army, General Zhuguo is really nothing."

"I can't promise you." Huang Lan said: "I am a businessman, where can I influence my cousin and cousin. ”

"That's your business, I don't care, anyway, my general only looks at the results, otherwise, you know the consequences."

"You ......" Huang Lan was furious, but now he found that he had no choice, if Fan Lixiang's power-hungry woman poked things out, it would be a bigger end than other civil and military stabs.

Because Fan Lixiang's prestige among the people is too high, once she is poked out, none of these implicated officials will be able to escape, and Liu Zhang will be afraid of public opinion and will be killed.

But Liu Zhang is about to become the emperor, but he made such a fuss, so that Liu Zhang has to deal with officials in the face of surging public opinion, so how good can his fate be?

Huang Lan had no choice but to nod fiercely: "Okay, I agreed." ”

Huang Lan thought in her heart, Fan Lixiang's request was indeed excessive, but Fan Lixiang also had her own capital, that is, popularity, and Jingzhou was the lord of Weigao, but later Liu Zhang completely trusted Fan Lixiang.

The people's heart is a big or small thing, if you don't care, you can ignore it, but if you want to be more serious, it's nothing to be a pillar general.

Huang Lan didn't dare to say these directly, so when the time came, she could only find a way to blow the wind from the low-level officials, and then build momentum among the people.

If the low-level officials support it, the people support it, Huang Quan suggests it again, and Liu Zhang's trust in Fan Lixiang is very sure, if he talks about Huang Yue's persuasion, there should be ninety percent hope.

It's just that Huang Lan also said "bah" in her heart like Li Cai, what kind of love for the people, hypocrisy, not just for the official position, those blind untouchables are really ridiculous.

"In that case, then ask Lord Huang Lan to sign it and put a handprint on it." Liu Min took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Huang Lan.

Huang Lan looked at it, her face was purple and red, and her hands were full of green muscles: "How can this be reasonable, Fan Lixiang wants to threaten me with this?" ”

On this piece of paper, all the charges were clearly written, and many of the charges that could have been set aside by the Huang family were attributed to the Huang family.

For example, the government went to coerce the Qu family's workers and stewards to stay, and coerced the Qu family to leave construction materials, although these were hinted at by the Huang family, they were not directly involved, and now they are all on his head Huang Lan.

If this is announced, he Huang Lan will not be able to run away if he is beheaded.

"Threats? Where to start? Liu Min said with a smile: "What General Fan wants is only General Zhuguo, as long as it is mutually beneficial, when General Fan becomes the General of Zhuguo, if you threaten you with this, won't you be unable to get along with yourself?"

But if you don't have this, your Huang family will fill in the loopholes in the official government, where will our General Fan find you? Will you, Huang Lan, still help General Fan ask for an official position? ”

Huang Lan frowned, so scheming, she really thought so, when the embezzled treasury was filled, Fan Lixiang had nothing to threaten herself.

By that time, General Zhuguo? Dream on.

But Huang Lan found that Fan Lixiang and this Liu Min are really leaky, no wonder they can go all the way to this day as a woman with no background.

"Okay, I'll sign." (To be continued......)
