It was a turning point from the state treasury to the household treasury. Before the money arrives at the household, it looks at the emperor's will, and after the money arrives at the household, it looks at the approval of the household.

That is to say, once the approval document of the household department is overreported, it will be checked later, and the overreported part will be supplemented.

Because the people who checked later only looked at the approval of the household department, they didn't care how much the emperor gave them.

In particular, in the absence of a significant reduction in this amount.

But when Chen Ke heard this, he still didn't waver: "I've been working in the household department for so many years, of course I understand the rules." For the extra budget, we will figure it out by ourselves, and ask Zhou Shilang to make it convenient. ”

Chen Ke's words fell, and another official who was with him also spoke: "Zhou Shilang, our budget is too much and not too little, why do you have to be so meticulous?" Stamped a seal, took out the 300,000 taels given by His Majesty, and the matter was over. ”

"But you..."Zhou Shilang wanted to say, how could two petty officials have a way to fill the gap of tens of thousands of taels of silver.

But when the words came to his lips, he suddenly paused again.

A bold idea suddenly came to his mind at this time, and because of this, he looked at the eyes of the two people in front of him, and involuntarily had some other emotions.

The two in front of him are still smiling kindly, but he can't keep a normal heart anymore.

Xiao Ciyu, who was hiding on the roof, also realized the problem after Chen Ke and the others spoke.

Don't... This is the problem in the so-called disaster relief funds of the King of Jinyang?

The amount of relief money is not less, on the contrary, it is more.

It's just that this extra part won't come out of thin air, and a few petty officials themselves can't afford to pay for it, so this silver...

It must be their previous greed for ink!

It seems that Dong Haochen is going to use my disaster relief money this time to help Chen Ke temporarily "return" the embezzled silver. When the money leaves Beijing, it will be taken back in another way.

Xiao Ciyu squinted his eyes and smiled sarcastically.

This old fox has a lot of tricks.

When you check the accounts, you usually only pay attention to whether there is anyone who is seeking personal gain and deducting from it. But few people care where some silver comes out.

Just like now, for Zhou Shilang, 300,000 taels are delivered in full, and as for these people to open more budgets, it has nothing to do with him.

After figuring out the crux of the problem, Xiao Ciyu's gaze fell on Chen Ke again.

At this moment, Chen Ke was still negotiating with Zhou Shilang.

As long as he goes down at this time and takes the extra tens of thousands of taels of silver and asks him, the purpose of today's trip should be achieved.

Things were easier and smoother than expected.

But looking at Chen Ke who was smiling and groaning, Xiao Ciyu hesitated.

Why is it Chen Ke who came to do business today?

This is still a fish in his heart.

Moreover, Chen Ke is here, where are the people of King Jinyang?

Today's King of Jinyang's unwillingness is in his eyes, and that person will never give up Chen Ke, who has been staring at him for so long!

Moreover, even the key point of disaster relief funds has been dug out, and it is almost the last time to investigate this critical kick, and King Jinyang has no reason to give up the investigation!

So... What about his people?

Xiao Ciyu raised his eyes, and his gaze carefully swept over every place around him that might be hiding.

But as a result, everywhere was empty.

There is no second lurker but him.

Narrowing his eyebrows, Xiao Ciyu lowered his eyes again and hid his invisibility into the night.

He couldn't guarantee that he was negligent.

However, as long as the other party comes, he will definitely seize this opportunity to show up.

Wait...
