Chapter 102 Opening of Trials in the Post Hall ([-]) First Update

"My lord, it's like this. I know that the time is tight, so I started to arrange the repairs after leaving Mingzhou..."

"Oh? Master Fan's devotion to the people is really gratifying to the king. In this way, it was a big mistake not to discuss with you yesterday. I think Master Fan has repaired part of the river after the...arrangements of the past few days, right?"

"No, no, never, it's like this, the repair of the river needs to be carefully arranged, sand, stone, wood, scorpion grass, etc., and the folks, all have to be ready..."

"That's right, it's ready now, right? Just hand it over to the two commanders. How much money did it cost? Just subtract it from the total."

Sweat dripped from Fan Shoukang's head, and he didn't bother to wipe it off. It can be seen where his brain is being used at this time!

"My lord, the silver, the silver has been allocated, ready..."

"Can't you dial it all down?" Prince Xiang slowly restrained the gentleness on his face: "Is it dialed down or...greedy?"

Fan Shoukang lost his knees and sat slumped on the ground.

He never expected that Prince Xiang would follow up on the matter of building the river channel to the end!
When Fan Shoukang saw Jiang Yidong and Cai Youkun being escorted to the capital in Mingzhou, he was really afraid at the time and wanted to do his job well, but after leaving Mingzhou, those fears seemed to stay in Mingzhou, and he never thought about it again.

In his opinion, what is a natural disaster?That is a disaster that can't be fought by manpower. If there is a flood, it is also God's will. It has nothing to do with whether he is serious about repairing the river. , the rain was heavy, no matter how he repaired it, it was useless.

Therefore, as soon as he returned to Jinling, the 200 million taels were almost allocated by him in various accounts, and some of the rest was prepared for display. After all, there was a case of losing money in the river at Hongyun Wharf, which was a headache for Prince Xiang. I'm not afraid that Prince Xiang will come to Jinling.

But now, he's scared!

"How much silver is left?" Prince Xiang asked with a cold face.

Qin Wubing's heart ached, it was really hard to force the salt merchants to donate money, plus Cai Youkun's family's money, barely made up enough, I don't know what kind of outrageous thing the river governor did in a flash of his brain.

"My lord! It's really used for preparation, the accounts are all there, my lord can check..."

"I asked you how much you have left?" Prince Xiang's face was extremely ugly!
Qin Wubing understood that if Fan Shoukang had only moved a decimal, he would have said it by now.

Fan Shoukang lowered his head and lay on the ground with his body crooked. He didn't even look like a first-rank official.

Tian Wenqian, the new governor of Jiangnan, first bowed his hands in salute to Prince Xiang, then walked to Fan Shoukang's side and helped him up. Although he was still kneeling, at least he stood up.

"My lord Fan, you should answer the question truthfully. Checking the accounts is meaningless right now. What the lord is asking is money." Tian Wenqian persuaded him earnestly.

The old monk snorted coldly and said, "Catching ants and boiling oil, scraping paint off the skin of bugs, for the sake of money, it's not too shabby!"

Fan Wenkang lay on the ground and howled, "My lord! It's really used to control the river..."

"No disease, if I want to know if he is using it on the river, what is the fastest way?" Prince Xiang asked with a cold face.

Qin Wubing raised his eyebrows, he was going to burn him on the fire before he would give up!

"There is a way. The 200 million cash was brought back to Jinling. How could there be no movement? How many cars were loaded? How many escorts? Did it all go to Jinling or did some go to other counties in the middle? How much? Who is responsible for counting the money into the warehouse? How much money is going out? Who is responsible for escorting? Who receives?

"Too cumbersome, keep it simple!"

"Copy the house!"

Qin Wubing bowed his body and lowered his head, not daring to look up at the expressions of the officials in the hall.

"Deng Ming, Chen Zhong!" Lord Xiang shouted in a deep voice.

"exist!"

"exist!"

"Order the two of you to lead the troops to search the residence of Governor Hedao with the king's token! This king will wait for your news here, and don't disturb the family members!"

The two commanders took the tokens and bowed to leave.

Fan Shoukang collapsed to the ground again.

Only now did Qin Wubing understand Prince Xiang's purpose!

Lord Xiang must have known about Fan Shoukang's character early on, so he used the 200 million taels of silver as bait. If Fan Shoukang doesn't remember to eat shit, it would be a good thing to repair the river. Something happened, and he was completely driven into the dust!
As for the 200 million taels of silver, perhaps it never left Prince Xiang's sight!

When leaving Beijing, it was only 50 taels, and it changed to 200 million taels after Mingzhou. How much will it change when Fan Shoukang's house is copied?If I get back the lost 50 taels...

Qin Wubing gasped, this is really a wonderful interpretation of killing two birds with one stone!He couldn't help showing more respect for Prince Xiang from the inside out, and at the same time dug a hole for him with his own hands, making him a talking point for officials after dinner, swearing and cursing, and maybe even being greeted by the Qin family. I feel helpless because of my ancestors!
Everything that just happened at the gate of the city and in the post house today will be widely known, especially among the officials, Qin Wubing suddenly felt a kind of pride of being a lonely minister!

"Hey, guess how many people want to deal with you from now on?"

At some point, the old monk stood beside Qin Wubing and asked with a smirk.

Qin Wubing snorted coldly and asked in a low voice:
"You pretend to be a fool all day long, but you actually understand it better than anyone else. How can you be fooled so easily?"

The old monk stared and said in a low voice: "I won't be deceived! I just want to!"

Qin Wubing nodded and said: "That's true! If you can see clearly, then you can see clearly. It's two different things from being a human being!"

The old monk was angry at first, and then asked with a smirk, "You said that I will beat you up here, do you dare to fight back?"

"Bittering and fighting are two different fields. If you suddenly strike when we are bickering, it can only mean that you lost to me in bickering. Since I have already won a round, it doesn't matter if I lose to you in fighting."

"Who said you won?!"

"No disease!" Lord Xiang suddenly shouted.

"exist!"

"I heard that you were ambushed and almost died on the road?" Prince Xiang asked seriously.

Qin Wubing hummed, but he was thinking about how to say this cross talk!
"Old Ninth, you've read him right! He's so thoughtful, he asked the people from the Cao Gang thoroughly in just a few words!"

"Oh? Someone from the Cao Gang wanted to kill him? Why?"

"What else could be the reason? Isn't it because this kid is a bit capable, afraid that he will go to Jinling to find out who stole the 50 taels of silver!"

Qin Wubing clearly heard the collective gasp of the officials in the hall, Xie Yu was excited again, and hurriedly got up and asked: "Did Detective Qin find a clue?"

　Is it too late to say Merry Christmas?I forgot it yesterday, and I remembered it after a friend reminded me at night, and then I forgot it again, which shows that I worked hard to type and did not swipe my phone haha.

　　No matter what festival, it is a good festival that makes you happy!

　　By the way, who still remembers Fan Shoukang's psychological activities in Dongyue Temple?No one will remember it. According to the situation that no one has responded to the writer's words in the past, let me tell you that it will be on the shelves next Friday. Will it be one more chapter or two more chapters?Since there is no response, the author decides on his own, and it is possible to maintain two updates.

　　hapiness!hapiness!hapiness!
