Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World

The next day, Li Mingde received his petition and official uniform, and officially took up the post of East Palace Zhanshi. Li Mingde attached great importance to this opportunity. When he first took office, he directly proposed to Zuo Qiuzheng to add assistants. Qiu Zheng also agreed, and Li Mingde directly asked for ten assistants. They would be in the room every day to conduct a large number of quantitative analysis. After another ten days, Li Mingde once proposed to Zuo Qiu Zheng that he wanted to meet with all the properties in the East Palace. The manager, Zuo Qiu Zheng, also agreed once and for all. He arranged for those people to come to meet Li Mingde in batches. In this way, Li Mingde spent a month at a time to meet with all the managers of Donggong Industry.

But this is not over yet. Then Li Mingde once proposed that he would go to all the properties in Donggong for on-the-spot inspections. Zuo Qiu agreed once and for all, and then Li Mingde began to conduct on-the-spot inspections on all the properties in Donggong. This time, he It took a full two months, that is to say, it took him more than three months from the time he took office to the end of his consideration. In these more than three months, he did not do anything. Zuo Qiuzheng did not give his opinions to Zuo Qiuzheng, nor did he make any adjustments to the East Palace's property. This was completely different from the report he had written before. This also made some officials in the East Palace raise concerns about Li Mingde's ability. There was some suspicion, but Zuo Qiu Zhengdao didn't say anything. He was also waiting. He wanted to see what Li Mingde wanted to do.

After Li Mingde's examination, he returned to the East Palace, and then began to write the memorial behind closed doors. Five days later, Li Mingde asked to see Zuo Qiuzheng. He got a thick memorial in his hand, and Zuo Qiuzheng listened. He said that Li Mingde was here, so he asked Li Mingde to enter his study. After Li Mingde entered his study, he saluted Zuo Qiuzheng. Zuo Qiuzheng nodded, and then said with a smile: "I love you, please be flat, love." How did your exam go this time? "Is it going well?" After he finished speaking, he looked at Li Mingde with amusement.

Li Mingde looked much thinner now than before. When Li Mingde heard what Zuo Qiu Zheng said, he immediately raised his hands on the memorial and said to Zuo Qiu Zheng: "Your Highness, this is a memorial written by me. Your Highness can take a look at it." I know." When he said this, his face was a little solemn, and Zuo Qiu Zheng couldn't help but become curious when he saw Li Mingde's appearance, and Fu Sheng had already taken the memorial and put it in Zuo Qiu Zheng's In front of him, Zuo Qiu was picking up the memorial and looking at it. At the same time, he said, "Fu Sheng, move a chair for Li Aiqing." Fu Sheng moved a chair for Li Mingde. After thanking Li Mingde, he sat down directly. .

When Zuoqiu Zheng first read the memorial, he just looked at it, but the more he looked at it, the more serious he became. Halfway through, his face had become serious, and half way through, his face had turned pale. After he finished reading, he slapped the memorial on the table with a bang, then looked at Li Mingde and said, "Li Aiqing, are the things in this memorial true?"

Li Mingde nodded and said: "It's absolutely true. I specifically asked for an inspection before, but I made arrangements in advance. This time the inspection was actually divided into three groups. The first group was the ones who were not here. Before leaving, I went to various industries to conduct secret investigations. The second group was Chen, and the third group was after Chen left, investigating various industries. This time, the people sent by Chen were all people from the East Palace. Your Highness can ask them at any time. You don’t know until you look at it. After looking at it, I was really shocked. According to my estimate, at least one-third of the income from the properties in the East Palace is managed by various management companies. Many people were wiped out by corruption, and there were also some people who used His Highness's name to plunder everywhere and ruined His Highness's reputation. However, in the end, the business they robbed was transferred to their own names, and His Highness's back was on his back. Despite being stigmatized, no benefits have been gained. There are some property managers whose lives are even more luxurious than His Highness’s. I think it’s time for a re-adjustment of Your Highness’s property. This is why I The reason why no changes have been made for such a long time is because I don’t know much about various industries. I only understand the situation of various industries through data, but I don’t understand the specific situation. Without understanding, , I will not make random ideas. Now I have basically understood the situation of various industries, so I wrote this memorial. I ask His Highness for permission to conduct a major cleansing of all the industries under the control of the East Palace. In this way, the property of the East Palace can truly become the property of His Highness, and I have calculated that if this purge is successful, the things copied from those people's homes can be enough to equal the income of the East Palace for a year. ”

"How daring, how daring. They dared to steal even Gu's money. Who gave them such boldness? They must be severely punished. Fusheng, this time you will personally come forward and cooperate with Li Aiqing to control all the properties under Donggong's rule. After a combing, no matter who he is or what his identity is, as long as he dares to embezzle money from me, I will arrest them all. I want to see how brave they are to dare to do this. Do you understand?" After Zuo Qiuzheng finished speaking, he turned to look at Fu Sheng.

When Fu Sheng heard what Zuo Qiuzheng said, he did not immediately accept the order, but said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, among the managers of various industries, some are family members of the Crown Princess, and some are recommended by the officials of the Eastern Palace. Your Highness, do you really want to deal with them all? Do you want to discuss it with the adults? And do you also need to discuss it with the Crown Princess?" After Fu Sheng finished speaking, he looked at Zuo Qiuzheng. He was reminding Zuo Qiuzheng that none of those who manage industries are without backgrounds. If all of them are dealt with, it will be very troublesome. If not handled properly, it will cause chaos in the Eastern Palace. If that is really the case, it will be really troublesome.

Zuoqiu Zheng was stunned when he heard Fu Sheng say that, and then his face turned purple. Fu Sheng looked at him and immediately knelt down. This made Li Mingde, who encountered such a thing for the first time, not know what to do. He could only kneel down. Zuoqiu Zheng raised his hand and smashed the table in front of him with a slap. Then he took a few deep breaths and calmed down. He said in a deep voice: "You two get up, Fu Sheng, clean up the table, and then go and call Jia Yu and the others in. Li Aiqing, you stay here." The two responded and stood up. Then Fu Sheng immediately arranged for someone to clean up the room and sent a new table to the room. After everything was cleaned up, Fu Sheng notified the others. Soon Jia Yu and the others all came to Zuoqiu Zheng's study, including Du Wei.

Dewey and other people who knew Zuo Qiuzheng well, as soon as they entered the study, they saw the newly replaced table in the study. They were all stunned. When they saw Zuo Qiuzheng's face, they all knew that Zuo Qiuzheng must be angry, and very angry. Their faces all changed. Dewey even glanced at Li Mingde, who winked at him. His eyes finally fell on the memorial on the table. Now Li Mingde really regretted it. He should have discussed the contents of the memorial with Dewey, but because he wanted Zuo Qiuzheng's approval too much, he sent the memorial directly to Zuo Qiuzheng after it was written, without showing it to Dewey. This caused this situation. If there is a next time, he will definitely not do this. He did not expect that the water in the East Palace is so deep, and the managers of those industries actually all have backers.

Zuo Qiuzheng also glanced at Jia Yu and the others, and then he said: "During this period of time, I asked Li Aiqing to inspect various industries. I think you all know about this, but what you don't know is that I made another arrangement. There must be three groups of people going to inspect this time, and Li Aiqing is just one of them. Before he went, a group of people had already inspected. After he left, someone else went to inspect again. The final result really surprised me. In the end, the three parties summarized it. I asked Li Aiqing to write a memorial to me. Li Aiqing, do you have the electronic version of this memorial?"

Li Mingde hurriedly said: "Yes, Your Highness, I have an electronic version here." Zuo Qiuzheng nodded and said: "Okay, send it to everyone." Li Mingde responded, and then he distributed the electronic card of the memorial to everyone, and everyone immediately read it carefully. After they finished reading the memorial, their faces all became very ugly, and they also knew why Zuo Qiuzheng was angry.

Jia Yu and the others all knelt down, and Jia Yu even said, "Your Highness, we are not good at judging people, please punish us."

Zuo Qiuzheng stood there motionless, Jia Yu and the others all knelt there, and cold sweats came down on their faces. They really didn't expect that the situation of those industries would be so serious, so it's no wonder that Zuo Qiuzheng was angry.

Zuo Qiuzheng looked at Jia Yu and the others, and after a while he finally said, "I don't blame you, I understand your loyalty to me, you all start your business." Everyone responded, and then he stood up, but everyone lowered their heads.

Zuo Qiuzheng sighed lightly, then said, "Those people were all very capable at the beginning. I didn't expect that once they started to manage those industries, they became like this. This matter is also my fault. It was my failure to monitor them, which gave them the opportunity. Well, I will spare their lives this time. When you go back, write to them and ask them to tell me all the greed they have gained over the years, and I will spare their lives. If anyone dares to be stubborn, then you can blame me for being rude. My knife can also kill people. Go ahead." Everyone responded and then left Zuo Qiuzheng. 's study, Li Mingde of course followed everyone out, and when they got outside, they all breathed a sigh of relief. Jia Yu and the others all turned to look at Li Mingde. When Li Mingde saw the looks in Jia Yu's eyes, he clasped his fists towards them, and then said with a wry smile: "My lords, this matter is really not my fault. First, I really don't know the background of those people. Second, these things are really not something I can find out. You lords should understand what I mean, right?" Li Mingde understood that this time, he had offended Jia Yu and the others, which would be very detrimental to his future development.
