Chapter 482: Miscalculation, Jade Emperor Decree
If we don't work hard, we can only become their vassals, always under their control, and become their puppets!"
In the twenty years after the rebellion of the 'Wuji Immortal Emperor', the bigwigs in the Heavenly Court, led by the 'Lingde Immortal Emperor', secretly took action to purge those sects and shili who followed the rebels.
The subtle pattern of the Shili of all sides of the Heavenly Court has undergone great changes due to the fall of the 'Infinite Immortal Emperor' and the others, and these thunderstorms that have been cultivating are of course unknown.
Sixty percent of the taxes of the fairy world have to be handed over to the Heavenly Court for management and use, and the 'Star Moon City', which used to be in charge of the Newcomer City, accounts for a very small proportion compared to other cities, because of the thunderstorm's new approach to the Newcomer City, this proportion has undergone major changes, and the degree of Heavenly Court's dependence on those cities is also constantly decreasing, and in turn, the restrictions and pressures on them are even more unscrupulous.
Thunderstorm cultivated to break through to the Immortal Emperor Realm and returned to 'Star Moon City' to deal with official affairs, the big man of Heavenly Court, of course, knew that on the third day of his return, he received a notice that three days later, he would participate in the City Lord Conference in Heavenly Court.
In the entire immortal realm, except for one hundred and eight newcomer cities and one capital 'Star Moon City', the other cities have a total of three hundred and forty-seven cities, with a total population of more than 500 million people.
With 'Xingyue City' as the axis, according to the geographical location, four rings are roughly formed. The city of newcomers, of course, is in the outermost ring.
Three hundred and forty-seven cities, more than half of them were controlled by the 'Wuji Immortal Emperor' and others, plus the leader of the 'Star Moon City', controlling one hundred and eight newcomer cities, financial resources, material resources, and the shili they have, of course, surpassing the people led by the 'Lingde Immortal Emperor', they are in the hardliners in the heavenly court, and they have a great right to speak. Even if the 'Bright Moon City' and the Newcomer City were carved out, the weakening of their shili was very small at that time, and it had no impact, so I didn't take it to heart.
It is in this context that the thunderstorm has been able to rise rapidly, and when it is fully rolled out, those big guys, no matter what they want to do, will be powerless.
"I convened all the city lords today to come to the Immortal Court for a meeting, because in recent years, the taxes paid by the cities have not been enough to make up for the expenditure of the Heavenly Court's finances, and from this year onwards, the taxes paid by the cities will increase by thirty percent, and the loss of the Heavenly Court last year will be paid by one percent within 15 days! In view of the serious damage to the newcomer city, the tax ratio will remain unchanged for the time being! In addition, from now on, the tax supervision of each city, the Heavenly Court will send personnel to supervise and ,... the tax supervision of each city." The Heavenly King of the Holding Kingdom, Wang Hengyi, sat down with several Immortal Emperors on the stage, stood up, and announced.
As soon as Wang Zhenren's words were finished, there was a buzz below, expressing their dissatisfaction and complaining that they couldn't finish it.
"Then how can we do it, we have done our best, and it is not easy to scrape together to make up for the taxes paid, and pay an extra thirty percent every year, we are really powerless!"
"Everyone has been the lord of the city, it's not been a year, two years, you also know how much the tax paid by the newcomer city before, less than half of it, after hard work, over the past hundred years, the taxes they have paid have increased year by year, this hundred years, has increased dozens of times, and now the taxes they pay account for more than 30% of the entire proportion of the whole paid, and they have more than 100 cities, accounting for 30%, you have more than 300 cities, how can you not do it? I'm very strange!
I don't want to say it, but I have to say, how can that Drifting Continent be built without trillions of funds, no one supports it, where does this huge amount of money come from?
For a long time, except for the newcomer city, you are all in your own position, the city taxes, no one supervises, laissez-faire, and I don't know where some of your funds flow in addition to paying taxes, now, it's time to take care of it!
The 'Lingde Immortal Emperor' suddenly stood up to speak in the midst of everyone's chaotic shouting, and his directivity made the audience suddenly silent, looking at him quietly.
"Everyone listens to the order!" Zhao Huaide, 'Bless the Holy Heavenly Monarch', shouted loudly. 'Auxiliary Holy Monarch' Zhou Zhuren stood up and took out a gorgeous yellow silk scroll.
"Thunder Heavenly King, Commander of 'Star Moon City', Thunderstorm, listen to Xuan!" Zhou Zhuren said loudly, Thunderstorm, from his seat, stood up and walked to the front of the stage.
The Jade Emperor decreed: "... , 'Dharma Protector Heavenly King' Lei Yu, concurrently serves as the 'Commander of the Cities' in the Immortal Realm, is in charge of the taxation of the cities in the Immortal Realm, and has the privilege of eliminating corruption and perverting the law, eliminating bribery and bribery, engaging in fraud, appointing and dismissing the city lord, depending on the situation, acting at the opportunity, and not having to play!"
"Xie Yuhuang the Great's appreciation, Lei Yu resolutely does it, acts impartially, does not wronged good people, does not let go of bad people, and returns the clean environment of the cities!"
"Ladies and gentlemen, from this moment on, we are a family, working together for the future prosperity and clean environment of the fairy world. Please rest assured that Lei Yu will act impartially, treat all cities equally, regardless of each other, and return things as they are... "Lei Yu, as the 'king of all cities', expressed his attitude at the meeting.
Back to 'Xingyue City', Lei Yu, immediately go to 'Xijia City', meet Yu Qingsong, and come to the fairy world, the shili he can really rely on, the person who can help him in his future is Senior Yu.
"Haha, haha, 'Commander of the Cities'! The Jade Emperor really cares for you kid!" Yu Qingsong said happily after sitting down with Lei Yu.
"I just can't figure it out, I didn't say hello, I was directly appointed in front of all the city lords, what is hidden behind this?"
"You kid, are you really confused, or are you pretending not to know? This is the Jade Emperor secretly coming forward to help you avoid the pursuit of those shili! The current situation, don't you know? 'Lingde Immortal Emperor' and others are forcing those people to rebel, so that they can come forward and catch them all, and the family is dominant!
What a smart person the Jade Emperor is, in doing so, he eliminated a dispute in the fairy world, diverted the attention of all parties, restrained many shili who wanted to profit from it, and stopped the hidden danger of a single family,... "Yu Qingsong slowly analyzed the thunderstorm, so that he learned a lot from it, and the ability to grasp the essence through the phenomenon.
"Oh, I really didn't expect these esoteric relationships!" Lei Yu said convincingly.
"Although you are bold to do it, since you are the 'lord of all cities' and have the privilege of appointment, dismissal and dismissal, no one dares to do anything to you, why not take advantage ,...of this opportunity," Yu Qingsong said with a smile.
......
"Now, our tax supervision association, Chen Zuming, Ding Biyao, Zhang Xueyao as vice presidents, Ding Biyao is responsible for the specific work, the rest of the personnel, under their leadership, tomorrow, from the first circle of eighty-nine cities, to start the supervision of tax accounts!"
Lei Yu returned to the municipal building of 'Xingyue City' and set up a supervision headquarters with great fanfare, and the members of the 'Xingyue City' and the newcomer city transferred a group of capable professionals engaged in tax work.
Lei Yu, who received the Jade Emperor's personal decree, led the inspection team to check the accounts of each city one by one.
"The scope of our inventory is limited to the last 50 years, please ask the city lord to order the relevant departments to cooperate!" "Coming to 'Ganjiang City', that is, the first city to be inspected, the city lord of Ganjiang City, of course, took his group of people to greet him with a smile on his face in the municipal building. Thunderstorm said briefly.
"'Commander Lei', please rest assured, we will actively cooperate with the inspection and do a good job in the payment of taxes!" City Lord Su replied with a smile on his face.
More than 50 people, a temporary inspection team, soon carried out the audit work in more than a dozen cities. With the beginning of the audit ceremony, the rest of the matter will naturally be handled by Chen Zuming and Ding Biyao. Thunderstorm said goodbye and returned to 'Star and Moon City'.
A month later, all the 89 cities were inventoried, and 63 cities and 9 cities with a difference in amounts of more than 1 billion yuan were found to have embezzled tens of billions of yuan. Thunderstorm summoned these problematic city lords to the 'Star Moon City' office conference room.
"The matter of auditing, your subordinates, are all present, some things, we will close the door and say, to deal with the verification of errors, there is only one way, that is, you go to find a way, within one month, all the filling, as if this matter did not happen, otherwise, I will not be able to deal with it!" Lei Yu said straight to the point.
"'Commander', we also have unspeakable secrets, in terms of time, can we be more lenient, we try our best to find a way to fill it up!" After the meeting, some city lords who had too much difference in the amount found Thunderstorm in private, whispered, lost their usual prestige, and kept complaining that they hoped to postpone the date.
In view of your situation, before the completion of the tax inventory in the whole city, it is my most graceful time, after this period, I can't help, I hurry up!"
Eighty-nine cities, the misappropriated funds are as high as more than 600 billion! Lei Yu said with a secret smile: "With such a simple account check, you can get at least trillions of funds, the city lords of the fairy realm are really a bunch of rats!"
In more than three months, Chen Zuming and Ding Biyao led a group of people to check all 347 cities, and misappropriated funds in violation of regulations, amounting to more than 50 trillion yuan a year. There was no discussion at all, Lei Yu asked them to make up all of them within the specified time and hand them over to 'Star and Moon City'!
"It's really annoying, I originally wanted to force them to rebel and uproot their foundation in one fell swoop, but I didn't expect that the Jade Emperor actually played a trick at this juncture, and ordered to appoint this newcomer to resolve a conflict that was about to occur, so that our wishful thinking was completely ...wiped out."
