People travel through the heavens, playing infinite roles

Chapter 45, The Living Hades
Stargazing Pavilion.

"From what you're saying, the Ministry of Finance doesn't have the money to build this golden coffin, right?"

Chu Yun was dressed in a white monk's robe and sat on the main seat, blowing the tea in the cup with indifferent downcast eyes.

Opposite him, there was a middle-aged man with a rich face and a beer belly. He looked at least four or five months old. If he was in the folks, he could tell by his appearance that he must be a wealthy landowner.

And this middle-aged man with a rich face is the Minister of the Household Department of Xuanwu Kingdom. To put it bluntly, he is in charge of money. He was summoned by the royal guard ordered by Chu Yun not long ago.

When Chu Yun asked the Ministry of Accounts to pay for the building of a golden coffin, the Minister of the Ministry of Accounts responded, "The treasury is empty recently, and I really can't afford the cost of building this golden coffin."

"Master Guardian, it's not that you don't want to build this golden coffin for you. It's because the Ministry of Accounts is short of money!"

Hubu Shangshu kept wiping the cold sweat from his head, swallowed his saliva, and explained tremblingly: "My lord, don't believe me, the Xuanwu Kingdom is struggling to make ends meet recently, and even the villain hasn't touched oil or water for several months."

Hearing this, Chu Yun took a leisurely look at the Hubu Shangshu in front of him. He has a plump body and a protruding belly. A person with such a body manages finances and then tells you that he has no money. Two, there are some similarities.

Seeing Chu Yun's gaze sweeping towards him, Hubu Shangshu trembled even more, his back was wet with cold sweat, and he kept praying in his heart, hoping that Chu Yun would not find out anything.

That guilty look almost had the word "corruption" written all over his face.

Chu Yun was not in a hurry to interrogate, and calmly sipped his cup of tea: "No Eyes, I don't remember the court law clearly, and I don't know how the court law should deal with corrupt people. "

Although it was a question, there was no hint of doubt in the indifferent tone, which made the Hubu Shangshu on the side tremble with fear.

"A corrupt person should be quartered according to the law."

Eyeless closed his eyes and responded cooperatively.

At the same time when he heard the words "five horses divided the corpse", Hubu Shangshu's whole body trembled suddenly, the fat all over his body moved accordingly, and his legs were shaking and becoming weak.

Just as he was wiping the cold sweat from his brow, the voice of the guardian came from the opposite side.

"Oh, really……"

Chu Yun put down the teacup, his eyes were indifferent, and his slender fingers tapped on the sandalwood table lightly, making a sound of "Tap, tap."

The knocking sound had a rhythm, and with each sound, Hubu Shangshu's heart beat violently, it seemed that what Chu Yun was knocking on was not the sandalwood table, but his heart.

At this time, the Guanxing Pavilion was very quiet. Apart from the sound of the sandalwood table being knocked, the only thing that could be heard was the violent heartbeat of Shangshu Hube.

Finally, the Hubu Shangshu, who couldn't bear the torture, said tremblingly: "My lord, I may have misremembered just now. If the Hubu has money, I can build that golden coffin for my lord, but it will take three days, my lord. What do you think?"

"Poor monk, I have always been a kind person, and I know the difficulties of the household department, so you don't have to force it."

Chu Yun's words made the Hubu Shangshu, who had been terrified all the time, heaved a sigh of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted, and he felt a lot more relaxed. He only felt that Chu Yun was a living Bodhisattva.

But what Chu Yun said next almost made him paralyze on the ground in fright.

Chu Yun's leisurely voice came: "Isn't it just that there is no money? This is easy to handle. I will ask the secret guards to thoroughly investigate the government affairs. If officials who find signs of corruption directly ransack their homes, the money will come."

Hubu Shangshu barely raised his head trembling all over, and looked at Chu Yun on the main seat. He suddenly realized that he had made a huge cognitive mistake just now, thinking that Chu Yun was a living Bodhisattva? !
To him, what kind of living bodhisattva is the current Chu Yun?He is clearly a living Hades!

At this moment, Chu Yun's white clothes are better than the snow, and he is not stained by the world. If in the hearts of most people, this is definitely an eminent monk who is indifferent to everything in the world and has an extraordinary temperament. He must be very compassionate in his heart.

But in the heart of Shangshu Hubu, there is no one in this world, who is more terrifying than Chu Yun now, who ransacked his house whenever he was short of money. Is there anyone more terrifying than this? !
The Minister of the Household Department forced himself to sneer and said, "Big... my lord, I just misremembered just now. According to the financial resources of the Household Department, it doesn't take three days, but only two days to build a golden coffin for the adults!"

Between losing his life and losing money, he decisively chose the latter.

Sure enough, a person's potential is obtained by force. If you don't force it, you don't know how much potential you have left, especially the Minister of the Ministry of Households. You can tell that he is a potential stock just by his body shape.

But even this efficiency is not satisfactory. Thinking of this, Chu Yun called out sharply: "Where is the dark guard!"

"My lord! In one day, I will build the golden coffin for you!"

Seeing that Chu Yun was going to call out the secret guard, Hubu Shangshu trembled in fright, and quickly shouted that the golden coffin could be laid today.

"In that case, let's go down."

Chu Yun waved his hand, and there was a trace of satisfaction in his eyes, which was very efficient.

"and many more……"

Just when Hubu Shangshu was about to cross the threshold, with hope in his eyes, thinking that he was about to leave this hell, Chu Yun called him from behind.

Hubu Shangshu turned his head with a bright smile on his face, with a flattering smile on his face: "My lord, is there anything else you need?"

"After the coffin is built, it will be placed in my room, and someone will send it to Shennong Kingdom at dawn the next day."

Chu Yun picked up the hot tea on the table and took a sip with a leisurely tone.

"Yes, the golden coffin can be sent to the adult's room tonight."

Hubu Shangshu repeatedly nodded, bowed and laughed, seeing that Chu Yun didn't express anything, he left in peace.

"squeak."

After Hubu Shangshu gently closed the door of Guanxing Pavilion, Wuyan, who had been watching the development of the situation, asked the doubts that bothered him: "You went to Shennong Kingdom to seek medical treatment for the master, and to create that golden mouth?" The coffin should be... to cover up people's eyes and ears."

When it comes to the golden coffin, Eyeless is a little unnatural, and feels a little ridiculous to his own speculation, because if you want to deceive people, you should use an ordinary coffin, not a golden coffin.

After all, this golden coffin really attracts attention.

Now he couldn't understand more and more what Chu Yun wanted to do.

All of these are reasonable when viewed separately, but if they are connected together, it is difficult for people to understand the intention behind it.

He looked at Chu Yun, and urgently needed an answer.

"Amitabha, little monk, I am setting a long line to catch a big fish."

Chu Yun clasped his hands together and smiled lightly.
