Chapter 1385 Overhead
"The wealth treasury in the mansion was looted, and talismans and utensils and coins were moved away." Qian Feifei replied: "They brought storage equipment and moved our things effortlessly."
My treasury has been emptied...
Zhou Fan's eyes twitched, and he sneered: "That is to say, nothing is left, so who should be responsible for this?"
If he takes office, he will undoubtedly take the blame, but he has not taken office yet. Is it also his responsibility?
He took office on time within the deadline and was not late. This responsibility was not his turn, so he wanted to see what tricks Hua Feihua and the others could do?
"Sir, this is an accident." Qian Feifei said: "The three patrol battalion commanders in charge of the city's garrison are the responsible persons this time. Because of their negligence, Xue Liancheng and Xuejiu sneak into the city. They have been resigned, and the warriors guarding the treasury were also killed in the riot."
"We report to Hanbei Province. The Lord of Hanbei Province said that the matter has come to this point, so we will no longer hold the rest of the people accountable."
Zhou Fan's face became a little subtle, which means that the matter is over?
"How to solve the problem of emptied treasury?" Zhou Fan asked the most critical point, "Did Hanbei Daocheng promise to solve it?"
"No." Qian Feifei shook his head and said, "The Lord of Hanbei said that everyone will no longer be held accountable, but the problem of emptied treasury is only solved by Heishui Protectorate's Office, whose reason is that Heishui Protectorate is originally self-sufficient in the treasury, and Hanbei will not solve it..."
"As far as I know, the summer tax has been levied, right?" Zhou Fan interrupted and asked with a slightly calmed face.
The tax is levied twice a year. If it has been levied, it is impossible to re-levied once. The Heishui area is pitifully poor, and forced levied may cause big problems. But if it is not levied, how can we pay the food and salary?
This is not a small amount. The patrol team in Hei Shui City, the warriors of the Great Protectorate and some auxiliary personnel all paid the money from the treasury.
"Yes, we just finished levying it shortly." Qian Feifei said: "But don't worry, the problem of emptied treasury has been solved."
Has been resolved?
Zhou Fan said: "How to solve it?"
Qian Feifei hesitated and said, "Governor Lei can't bear to see us starve. He paid out of his own pocket to fill in the month's food, salary and some of the material expenditure."
After hearing this, Zhou Fan was silent for a while and smiled: "Awesome, I wonder how much he paid?"
"Three thousand million mysterious coins!" Qian Feifei replied.
The people in the hall looked at each other in front of each other. Zhang Li Xiao’s fox eyes were green. He took out the 30 million mysterious coins and took them out. This was really not ordinary and courageous.
"Then you don't need to pay back this money, right?" Zhou Fan asked again.
"Governor Lei said no." Qian Feifei said: "This is donated to Heishui City for free by Governor Lei."
"Then I have to thank Governor Lei for his good thanks." Zhou Fan said with a smile.
After asking about this, Zhou Fan asked about other things in the mansion, and then asked Qian Feifei to arrange a residence for him and others.
As a great protector, he naturally had to live in the great protector's mansion.
Qian Feifei was about to leave to do things, but was stopped by Eunuch Ao. Eunuch asked: "Is there any promotion order above about me?"
"Who is this lord?" Qian Feifei asked in confusion.
Eunuch Ao revealed his identity.
Qian Feifei hurriedly saluted and said, "I don't know you in person. I hope you will forgive me. You are appointed as the special envoy of the Hei Shui Protectorate's Office. The promotion order was issued with Lord Zhou's appointment."
"..." Zhou Fan looked confused. He had been with Eunuch Ao for so long. It turned out that Eunuch Ao had prepared for a long time. He didn't know that Eunuch Ao would become the special envoy of the Black Water Protectorate.
"Those who don't know are not guilty." Eunuch Ao smiled and said, he was not here to play.
Qian Feifei said a few more respectful words before turning around and leaving.
"Zhou Fan, we are now peers again. It is best if you do things without crossing the line, otherwise even if you and I know you, don't blame me for being rude." Eunuch Ao turned around and smiled.
Zhou Fan looked helpless, but Eunuch Ao did not pose too much threat in his eyes. He looked heavy and thought about countermeasures.
His six senses were turned on and after confirming that no one eavesdropped, he asked Du Ni and the others to check that there were no eavesdropping instruments around, then looked at everyone and asked, "What do you think I should do?"
"What should I do?" Eunuch Ao asked slightly stunned.
Du Ni and the others showed a look of thought.
"So you are stupid, Zhou Fan is in a very difficult trouble." Xiong Feixiu said disdainfully.
Eunuch Ao was so angry that he trembled all over and said, "You little brat, how dare you say that our family is stupid? Such a smart person in our family hates others to say that our family is stupid. Do you tell me what trouble Zhou Fan is in?"
"This..." Xiong Feixiu turned her eyes, and she glanced at Zhou Fan with a frown and said, "Anyway, he is in trouble, so I won't tell you."
In fact, Xiong Feixiu was not very clear about what Zhou Fan was asking.
Eunuch Ao didn't know even more, because he felt that the snow thief had been resolved and the deficit of the treasury was filled in. So what else was there?
"The problem lies in the deficit of the treasury and was filled with Lei Tianyang." Zhou Fan explained helplessly: "He is not so kind. He paid this money to win people's hearts."
Even this money may not be paid by Lei Tianyang personally, it is likely that it was the money that was robbed. The so-called thief Xue Liancheng may be just a scene of robbing himself.
Zhou Fan didn't say these words because those who understand them will naturally understand them. Those who don't understand them are better than those who don't. It's better not to say them. It's not good if they spread them.
After hearing Zhou Fan's explanation, Eunuch Ao coughed lightly and said, "Our family has known this for a long time. Lei Tianyang is willing to take out the money to overcome the difficulties for Heishui City. Of course, he would not be so kind. He is just to win people's hearts."
"But what he wants to do to buy people's hearts?" Xiong Feixiu asked in confusion.
Yes, what did he want to do when he bribed people's hearts? Eunuch Ao also wanted to ask, but he was embarrassed to ask.
"What else can I do to win people's hearts?" Zhou Fan pulled the corner of his mouth and said, "Of course it is to undermine me, the Great Protector."
I have to say that this move is indeed very vicious. At least for now, the lower-level warriors will remember Lei Tianyang's kindness.
Lei Tianyang came earlier than him, and the five deputy guardians were avoiding him now. They obviously planned to stand on Lei Tianyang's side. Of course, the five deputy guardians were not so easy to be bought by this little favor, but the problem is that behind Lei Tianyang is Hua Feihua, the Hanbei Lord.
As long as Lei Tianyang reveals that Zhou Fan, the great gubernator, was disliked by Hua Feihua, it is not difficult to understand that these people will stand on Lei Tianyang's side.
The lower-level warriors benefited from Lei Tianyang’s 30 million Xuan coins donations, while the middle-level warriors were afraid of the Lord of Hanbei. This can explain why only Qian Feifei came to see him, the Protector.
