Exile at the beginning: Take the system and sister-in-law to farm

Chapter 158 The Minister of Household Affairs is panicked!

Yanhuang City.

vegetable market.

As soon as the sky turned pale, Eunuch Liu led dozens of imperial guards and royal chefs in carriages and entered the vegetable market unimpeded.

Seeing this, the people in the vegetable market gave way to a spacious road.

"Boss Liu, 1000 catties of tomatoes, 1000 catties of eggplants..."

"Butcher Sun, 1000 jins of pork, 1000 jins of beef, 1000 jins of mutton..."

"Wang Gancai, 100 kilograms of each condiment..."

“All expenses will continue to be paid on credit, and we will settle the bill after the inventory of the treasury is completed!”

"You have only half an hour to prepare it, otherwise you will be punished for deceiving the emperor!!"

Like a bandit, Eunuch Liu used the power of the Imperial Guards to shout at several owners of the vegetable market.

When the bosses heard what Eunuch Liu said, their faces instantly turned the color of bitter gourd.

"Eunuch Liu... In the past two months, you haven't paid for the vegetables... I have a small stall business, and you are a lion every time. I can't bear it! Now I can't bear it!" I owe money to many vegetable farmers in various places on credit, and they no longer provide vegetables for the little guy!" Boss Liu, the vegetable seller, was so frightened that he peed when he saw Eunuch Liu calling his name.

Butcher Sun threw down the boning knife in his hand and knelt on the ground with a thump, "Eunuch Liu, you have a lot of money, please spare this villain! I really can't afford the compensation! These two months , the villain has sold his house and daughter in order to support the stall! Just give the villain a way to survive!"

"Eunuch Liu... I will kneel down for you too!"

Wang Gancai made a splash and knelt on the ground. He said with tears in his nose: "In the past two months, Eunuch Liu has owed the villain more than 30 gold coins on credit! The villain has a small business and it is really hard to turn over. Get up! Our country, the Yan Empire, is prosperous and the people are strong...can’t the national treasury not even be able to afford this amount of money for the royal kitchen?"

"Eunuch Liu..."

All the vendors in the vegetable market knelt down in the aisle one by one, "We are all small businesses! If you continue like this, we will be completely ruined! You first mentioned the treasury inventory, and now you have been doing it for two months. Is it possible? Haven’t you finished taking stock yet?”

"Yes, yes! When will this end! We can't afford it! If this continues, we will go bankrupt!"

As soon as Eunuch Liu finished speaking, all the owners of the vegetable market started to complain.

All the bosses started crying!

Because in the past two months, Eunuch Liu had given credit to all vendors here, big and small, and each vendor owed at least 20 gold coins.

This is a big number!

It turned out that a week after the imperial dining room and the treasury of the palace were wiped out by Yan Yun, the Ministry of Revenue in charge of the treasury's finances learned about the theft of the treasury.

But until now, Hubu has suppressed the news to prevent the news from leaking out.

All expenses of the palace are linked to the Ministry of Household Affairs.

After the imperial dining room was robbed, Eunuch Shi united with many imperial chefs to solve the problem of meals for the week.

But in the second week, I went to the treasury to collect funds and when I went out to purchase food, I was told that the treasury was taking inventory and would not allow expenditures for the time being, and asked Eunuch Liu to go to the vegetable market to get credit.

The bad idea of ​​credit was a solution that was thought up by the Minister of Hubu, the Minister of Hubu, Zhou Taishan, the commander of the Imperial Guard, and Hao Feng, the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard.

Originally, the Minister of Household Affairs did not know that the treasury was empty.

Usually this situation is managed by the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, and the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue only signs the signatures and does not care about other trivial matters.

The Minister of Hubu is equivalent to the director, and the Minister of Hubu is equivalent to the deputy director.

After the morning court that day, the Minister of Household Affairs had to pay for a week's worth of food to the imperial kitchen.

After he wrote the official document for collecting the money, he went into the bank to collect the gold coins.

but.

After the door of the money bank was opened, it was actually empty, not even a gold coin was seen.

In other words.

The second week after the treasury was emptied, the Ministry of Revenue learned the news immediately.

This made the Minister of Tobe tremble in his heart!

What a joke!

There were mountains of gold coins here last week, and without war, it would take hundreds of years to spend them all.

A week later, it was empty? ?

How can this be?

Could it be that His Majesty transferred all the gold coins away?

impossible!

These are His Majesty's gold coins. Is it necessary for him to transfer them away?

and.

All funds allocated by the treasury are related to their household department. No matter how many gold coins are allocated, their household department will know it immediately.

These require the signature of the Ministry of Accounts to transfer the gold coins.

Even if the prime minister and general embezzle public funds, they must obtain their consent.

Although their household department is under the management of the Prime Minister, it seems that the Prime Minister does not dare to embezzle public funds from the treasury easily, right?

If this secret misappropriation is detected, it will be punished with the crime of deceiving the emperor.

Then the whole family will be beheaded!

The Minister of Household Affairs thought he was dazzled, so he rubbed his eyes vigorously, but it was still empty, not even a gold coin could be seen.

His complexion began to turn pale.

The gold coins in the treasury disappeared. If His Majesty knew about it, he would definitely settle the accounts with their Ministry of Accounts as soon as possible.

This is no joke!

The Minister of Tobe's scalp was numb, his back was sweating profusely, and the cold sweat on his forehead was dripping all over the floor.

General Tobe Zhonglang who followed him was also frightened by the empty scene inside!

The Zhonglang of Hubu will be subordinate to Hubu and obey the transfer of Hubu Shilang and Hubu Shangshu.

"Master Minister...this...this...this...where is the money in this vault?? I remember when we came last time, the gold coins here were still piled up like mountains, right?? Now...why...it's empty?" Not even a single fragment was left behind?? This is...this is...unbelievable, right?? This is the treasury of the Great Yan Empire!!"

Tobe Nakaro was so frightened by the situation inside that he was trembling all over. He even stuttered when he spoke, and cold sweat poured down his forehead.

sky……

If this were told, who would believe it? ?

but.

There is really nothing inside!

The Minister of Household Affairs collapsed a little, and said with a trembling mouth: "If His Majesty finds out about this... I guess all of us in the Household Department, including our family members, will be to blame!"

"what……"

General Tobe Nakaro trembled all over and almost collapsed to the ground in fear, "But...but...we didn't misappropriate the funds here!"

"Your Majesty will not tell us so much. He will only ask us for money and ask us where the money went!" Minister Tobe tried his best to calm down the despair in his heart.

He thought of his wife and children, and his family.

What should I do?

Could it be possible that he took his wife, children and family and ran away secretly overnight? ?

"No... Lord Minister... these have nothing to do with our household department... but have to do with the Imperial Guards outside... They are responsible for guarding the treasury... and we are only responsible for writing approval documents and signing and affixing them! "

Tobe Nakaro remembered the Imperial Guards outside and hurriedly shifted the responsibility to these guys.
