Chapter 684 Inventory follow-up, wrong consciousness

The order of Xincheng City Lord's Mansion to clean up the brothel business was leaked the day after the meeting, which led to the closure of all twelve brothels in Xincheng within a day, saying that they were going to be refurbished.

And those brothel personnel are preparing to hide in other places first, leaving this place of right and wrong in the new city.

As long as they leave the new city, they are safe, because the law enforcement agencies in the new city only have authority within the boundaries of the new city, and no one will recognize them when they leave the new city.This is the imperial court's restriction on the new city, and it is also a compromise made by Ding Yi to reassure the emperor.

The new city has no city walls, let alone city gates. The routes in the city extend in all directions, and no matter how many people there are, it is not enough to block the entire city.

Immediately afterwards, some officials of various ministries in Xincheng were investigated. Most of them were arrested for accepting bribes, and some were arrested for abusing their power.

The actions of the Ministry of Supervision were swift and decisive, without delay.As long as you make a move, there must be conclusive evidence and a targeted target.

For a while, everyone in the official circles in Xincheng was in danger, for fear that they would be invited to drink tea by the Ministry of Supervision.

The officials finally realized that none of the [-] Departments of Xincheng was superfluous. Even if they didn't find any usefulness before, it was just that people didn't understand its usefulness.

The Ministry of Inspection is an example, as is UNEP.It's like everyone didn't know the purpose of the Environmental Agency planting trees and sweeping the ground every day, but after the Environmental Agency did these things, people discovered that a city can be so beautiful.

The corruption of Xincheng officials made Ding Yi sad, but it was also expected.

People make money and birds die for food. Even if the ideal is noble at the beginning, after a long period of temptation, there will always be people who can't stick to it.

This kind of problem cannot be solved by increasing their salaries.No matter how high the salary is, it is impossible to satisfy them, because human desires cannot be satisfied.

Today, ten pennies can eat and clothe warmly, and he will think that he will eat better next time. In the past, he could only use other means to let these people know that greed must have a limit, and greed cannot destroy the original. order!
Regarding the rectification of the brothels, it was originally planned to start from the existing brothels, but now that the brothels are closed, they have to stop temporarily.

And the original intention of this action is not these brothels, but the officials in the administrative department who colluded with those people, and it is also a big cleansing of the officialdom in Xincheng!

Let the officials in Xincheng realize that the officialdom in Xincheng is not the officialdom of the imperial court, and all kinds of bad deeds in the past cannot exist here!
Those who were arrested at the ministerial level included Lin Wei and the deputy minister of the Ministry of Food.This person made a lot of money through the Ministry of Grain, and after being arrested, he confessed to his boss. In one year, he had embezzled and accepted bribes totaling 16 yuan!
This fact shocked the entire officialdom in Xincheng!
So much can be embezzled in one year!Even if the people in the new city are considered to be well-off, it is still a family of three, and they will not be able to earn money if they work hard for a lifetime!
Other people are also important positions in various departments, and it is common to accept bribes and embezzlement.

This sudden investigation shocked the entire Xincheng officialdom!
The officials arrested this time alone have a total of millions of dollars in embezzlement!

This is not just the mistakes of the officials. As the saying goes, a slap can't make a sound.If there are no people who give bribes, where do these people go to embezzle?

On the sixth day of the investigation, the City Lord's Mansion once again issued an announcement!

Officials who accept bribes are misbehaving, but those who give bribes are not good birds either!
In the past, the City Lord's Mansion always maintained a kind of compassion for the people, but this time it is different!
As the laws of the new city were updated step by step, the rights and interests of the people increased and their status improved.Even merchants and slaves are not discriminated against in Xincheng.This makes people think that Xincheng is people-centered!
Even though this is the case, but at the same time as a human being, we must not let people forget the original intention of duty!
Those who give bribes will be sentenced according to the amount of money, the size of the thing they seek, and the seriousness of the violation of the law!

As soon as this decree came out, rumors started to spread in the city, thinking that the City Lord's Mansion was going to follow the old path and never return to the previous situation.

However, just after the rumors spread, the City Lord's Mansion made public the laws violated by those officials and the evil deeds pursued by those who gave bribes!

This move gave the common people a new understanding of the City Lord's Mansion!
The Xincheng government is not afraid of the people talking badly to them, but wants to establish a fair, strict, open and transparent government image!

This also let the people of Xincheng see that the government of Xincheng has always been thinking of the people, and no one in the government is allowed to seek personal gain for themselves!

The reason for doing this is not for anything else, but to set an example for the court, to find out a feasible path for the court, and to make the court realize that the people are not easy to fool.

In addition to those important people who were arrested in Xincheng official circles, some accomplices were also dealt with, and some people from all ministries were dealt with.

Therefore, the personnel strength of the [-]th Department of the new city was also beaten back to its original shape overnight, returning to the situation when the various departments were first established.

But this is not a bad thing, on the contrary it is a very good thing!

At least the people left now, they are all dedicated to the new city and want to do something!
And these people, regardless of their abilities, are much easier to use than when the twenty departments were first built.

After more than half a month of tossing around, this government investigation has finally come to an end, and the previously reported action to rectify the brothel also ended without incident because someone among the officials tipped off the news.

This made those who knew it think that this action to rectify the brothel seems to be to expose those corrupt officials.

It's just that no one noticed that some people in the brothel bribed officials, after all, they were a minority, so why were so many officials found in twenty departments!
After some officials were arrested, they were full of confidence. They were not afraid of being found out or caught, but instead sat firmly on Mount Tai.

After the investigation is over, the next step is how to deal with these corrupt officials.These days, some people from Chang'an have been coming to the door, and they found Ding Yi, hoping to let these people go!
Even the inspection team sent by Li Er came to the door many times, hoping that Ding Yi could be dealt with lightly!

The arrival of these people made Ding Yi realize his previous mistakes!
In order to reassure Li Er, it was a very wrong decision to let him and some nobles in Chang'an put people in so easily!
Not to mention that few of the people Li Er'an inserted were investigated, but this gave those people a chance after all!
Not only did he hand over the government affairs of Xincheng to Li Er, but he also handed over all the defense to You Xiaowei!

This is superfluous, and I have brought Xincheng to this point step by step!
