Chapter 236 [The new official takes office! 】

After seeing off Princess Minyi, a cold light flashed through Lei Dong's sleepy eyes. With Lei Dong's IQ, how could he guess what the old foxes such as Zhengyuan Emperor and others were thinking?

In fact, the moment Lei Dong handed over the recipe of the True Grass Pill to Princess Minyi, he had already guessed that no matter what he said, the old foxes would definitely not believe that they only had a True Grass Pill pill in their hands.

However, Lei Dong didn't care about this at all. He believed that the old foxes would not do anything to kill chickens and get eggs. After all, compared with the pill recipes of several Zhan Tianshi Masters, Lei Dong's demonic cultivation talent is what old foxes like Zhengyuan and others really valued.

Of course, everything needs to be prepared. If Emperor Zhengyuan and his group of old foxes really wanted to take action to seize other ancient pill recipes in Lei Dong's hands, Lei Dong would not choose to fight head-on. However, the pill recipe given by Lei Dong at that time would not be a real pill recipe like the True Essence Pill.

In short, even if Lei Dong chose to show weakness, the pill recipe he gave must be a pill recipe with problems. Fortunately, this thing did not happen, otherwise, even if he discovered the Chunqiu Pavilion's nest, Lei Dong would not have secretly disclosed it to Emperor Zhengyuan and others.

"Hehe... Since you old foxes are so anxious to give this young master alchemy materials, then you are not polite!"

After a smile, Lei Dong turned around and walked back to his study room.

Lei Dong believed that with the recommendation of King Wuding and the reputation he had accumulated over the past period, the position of the Treasury Department in charge would definitely not be able to escape! Therefore, he felt that he needed to think carefully about how to embezzle the alchemy materials without missing traces.

In Lei Dong's view, using his position to fill his personal pockets is a relatively high-end technical job. Moreover, he is unwilling to let the old foxes of Zhengyuan Emperor think that he is an insatiable person. In this case, if he does not arouse the disgust of Zhengyuan Emperor and others, and can embezzle the treasures in the treasury on a large scale, it will become the problem Lei Dong needs the most to solve at present!

...

In a blink of an eye, a week passed.

During this week, the major wealthy families in the capital were truly the eight immortals who showed their magical powers. In order to get a good position for the direct children in the family, the rulers of these wealthy families used almost all the tricks. But even so, in the end, some were happy and some were sad.

There is no way, there are only so many empty places. It is not enough for these big families to grab them. If this happens, people will naturally be frustrated and some will be proud.

Of course, compared with these big family members who dig out doors and steal holes, Lei Dong is much happier. Not only did he not participate in the primary election, the re-election, or even the final election, he was directly appointed as the head of the Treasury Department under the recommendation of King Wuding.

A week later, a carriage suddenly drove up in front of the Treasury Office. After the carriage stopped, Thunder in a blue official robe opened the car door and walked down with a smile.

The official uniforms of this world are very similar to the Tang Dynasty official uniforms that Lei Dong remembered in his previous life, and they are both extremely gorgeous styles. Lei Dong is already elegant, and at this moment, if you wear this gorgeous official uniform, it will be difficult to avoid attracting attention.

That's right... As soon as Lei Dong appeared, the officials who were waiting in front of the Treasury Office were all lit up and they quickly came over.

It is said that the shadow of a man's name is the shadow of a tree. Lei Dong's reputation in the capital of Dali Kingdom is absolutely unparalleled at this stage. Even Emperor Zhengyuan is willing to take the lead. In this case, when he heard that Lei Dong, a talented man, was about to take office as the head of the Treasury Department, the officials in the Ministry of Revenue could no longer sit still.

Although the head of the Treasury Department where Lei Dong was appointed was only a fourth-rank official, no one dared to underestimate him.

At first, Lei Dong's reputation is at its peak.

Secondly, the fact that King Wuding was appointed as the crown prince was foregone conclusion. At this moment, no one dared to cause trouble for Lei Dong. After all, to outsiders, Lei Dong had already had the mark of King Wuding.

Third, and the most important point, since Thunderbolt became famous, Emperor Zhengyuan has been favoring him. Moreover, this favor has not decreased over time, but has become more obvious!

This can be seen from the fact that Lei Dong was directly appointed as the head of the Treasury Department. You should know that not everyone can hold the position of the Treasury Department. Generally speaking, this position can only be held by ministers who are deeply trusted by Emperor Zhengyuan. In other words, it is impossible to be appointed as the head of the Treasury Department if it is not a confidant among Emperor Zhengyuan’s confidants!

No one is a fool if you can get involved in the officialdom. Since you know that Lei Dong is a big celebrity around Emperor Zhengyuan, how can anyone feel uncomfortable? Therefore, senior officials from the Ministry of Revenue, including the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue and the Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, almost all appeared in the lineup to welcome Lei Dong.

Lei Dong II was a human being, and he had already seen through these things in the officialdom. In this case, he naturally would not offend people casually. Therefore, as soon as he got off the carriage, he immediately took a few steps and greeted Qian Da, the minister of the Ministry of Revenue, who came across from him. "Oh... Lord Qian, why are you here? To be honest, I was thinking about going to visit you after handing over the seal! You see, this matter is being messed up? No... In order to apologize, after handing over the seal, you must give Lei face and let Lei treat you well!"

Huahua sedan chair lifted people. Although Qian Da knew that Lei Dong was talking politely, he felt very comfortable after listening to it. You know, since Lei Dong became famous, he has never attended a banquet from anyone else except for the invitation from Mr. Fang and others. Not to mention, Lei Dong took the initiative to invite him this time!

Not to mention anything else, the honor that Lei Dong took the initiative to invite is enough to Qian Da be very excited! After all, what you pay attention to in the officialdom is face! Lei Dong can give face like this, which is definitely beyond Qian Da's expectation.

In a happy mood, Qian Da's tone became more familiar.

After laughing, Qian Da smiled and shook his head and said, "Mr. Lei, you said something wrong! As a senior in the officialdom and the head of the Ministry of Revenue, Qian will take care of you, Lord Lei. Isn't this a normal thing? What's more, Qian admires your talent very much! So, after a short greeting banquet, Lord Lei will not have to snatch it from Qian. Qian must take this greeting banquet!"

Qian Da has been the Minister of Revenue for decades, and naturally there are many confidants around him. As soon as he finished speaking, many people echoed in unison.

Seeing this, Lei Dong smiled and had to respond.
