Ling Tianfan's face could not tell whether he was happy or angry.

"I also know that if the water is clear, there will be no fish.

I'm not here to investigate corruption.

You don’t need to be overly nervous. As long as your Zhubo family doesn’t stand against me, I won’t deal with your Zhubo family.

I just want to know the specific situation so that I can have an idea."

Ling Tianfan said calmly.

Zhu Bofei felt somewhat confident after hearing Ling Tianfan's words.

He said: "If the water clears up and everyone abides by the rules and laws, the fiscal revenue of Xucheng that day can reach more than 30 million low-grade Hunyuan Kongjing crystals every ten thousand years."

"More than thirty million?"

When Ling Tianfan heard this number, his eyes froze, and his aura almost burst out.

The fiscal revenue on the open account is only around 6 million, which is just enough to maintain Tianxucheng's daily expenses.

It turns out that there are more than 25 million hidden accounts that have been cleared.

This is what fiscal balance means.

As long as the world is peaceful and no trouble occurs, no one will come to investigate.

"Tianxucheng's finances have been swallowed up so much, does the court know?"

Ling Tianfan asked.

Of the more than 30 million yuan in fiscal taxes, only more than 6 million yuan was reported in the open accounts.

That's four-fifths of it eaten.

"I know, of course I know.

But who cares?

The world of Yue Yi Heavenly Kingdom does not belong to the Yue Yi Royal Family alone, it belongs to all the royal families, royal families and major families in Yue Yi Heavenly Kingdom.

Tianxu City is not the Tianxu City of the Yue Yi Royal Family, it belongs to all the large and small families in our Tianxu City.

Therefore, the interests of Tianxu City cannot be taken away by the imperial court controlled only by the Yue Yi royal family, our families, large and small, also need to survive."

Speaking of this, Zhu Bofei carefully glanced at Ling Tianfan's face.

"You continue talking without looking at my face.

My surname is not Yue Yi, so you don’t have to be afraid of what you say will be treacherous or anything like that.”

Ling Tianfan said calmly.

Zhu Bofei breathed a sigh of relief and said, "This situation is not only true for our Tianxu City, but also for other cities.

As long as it doesn't go too far and doesn't cause public dissatisfaction and people's lives to be ruined, then it is tacitly accepted.

If anyone really takes it seriously, it will offend the interests of the major families and cause public resentment."

"You are speaking to me, right?"

Ling Tianfan said calmly.

"I don't dare to do this in a humble position."

Zhu Bofei said in fear.

"Let's do this, I want to expand the city guard army to ten thousand people! You go to the major families in Tianxu City to discuss it, and the military expenses will come from your various secret accounts.

Don't tell me you can't do it.

If each of you does less secret accounts, Xucheng will have more clear financial accounts that day.

Furthermore, in the city guard army I formed, the masters of your major families in Tianxu City are so actively participating, so the military expenses will be used on the people of your major families."

Ling Tianfan said.

"I understand the humble position."

Zhu Bofei secretly thought that Ling Tianfan was smart and knew how to settle accounts. How could he dare to disobey?

Ling Tianfan then asked: "Tell me about the three major Hunyuan Sky Crystal veins.

How many open accounts and hidden accounts are there?

How are the benefits distributed?"

When Zhu Bofei heard this, he quickly shook his head, fearing that he would get into trouble, and said with great fear: "City Lord Tang, please don't embarrass your humble position.

The matter of the three major Hunyuan Kongjing mineral veins involves the Yue Yi Royal Family and so many royal families, let alone the villain doesn’t know about it, even if the villain hears some rumors, he doesn’t dare to say anything nonsense.”

"Don't you dare to talk nonsense?

So, you Zhubo family don’t want to take a sip of the profits from the three major Hunyuan Kongjing mineral veins?”

Ling Tianfan said.

Zhu Bofei smiled bitterly and said: "All the major families in our Tianxu City are just small shrimps, and we don't want a dragon crossing the river like City Lord Tang who has a big background and backstage.

If City Lord Tang needs us little shrimps, we little shrimps will follow him to the death. As for whether City Lord Tang will reward us little shrimps with a sip of soup after eating the meat, it all depends on City Lord Tang’s mood, and we don’t dare to complain.

.

If City Lord Tang feels that we little shrimps are not worthy of following City Lord Tang, then we little shrimps should just sit down and do our part, and ask City Lord Tang to give us little shrimps a way to survive."

After hearing these words, Ling Tianfan completely understood.

This is also the way to survive for families large and small in Tianxucheng.

"Then what can you tell me?"

Ling Tianfan asked.

Zhu Bofei said: "I don't know what I can tell Lord Tang. If Lord Tang has anything to say, just ask him. As long as I know something from my humble position, I will tell you everything."

"How did the previous city lord Luo Ti die?"

Ling Tianfan asked.

"I don't know what a humble job is."

Zhu Bofei said.

"Really don't know?"

Ling Tianfan asked.

"I really don't know."

Zhu Bofei said seriously.

"Then who knows?"

Ling Tianfan asked.

"Army Leader Li Zhantian and the nine deputy city leaders are the parties involved, and they should know it."

Zhu Bofei said.

These words, even if they are said, are not said.

Ling Tianfan cursed in his heart, this old fox was really impeccable in what he said.

"Okay, you can go out."

Ling Tianfan said.

"I resign from my humble position."

Zhu Bo flew a salute and then exited the city lord's mansion.

Ling Tianfan rearranged the altar, and the altar transmitted messages to his master Yue Yihun.

"Why did you come to see me as your teacher again?

How did the city lord do?"

Yue Yihun said via voice transmission.

"Whether I can hold my position as the city lord of Xucheng today depends on whether you can support me, master."

Ling Tianfan said.

"Tell me, how far have you become the city lord of Tianxucheng?"

Yue Yihun asked.

"I broke up with Zhan Tian, ​​the main force of Tianxu City's city guard army. Now I want to cut off the military expenses of his city guard army and establish my own city guard army at the same time.

To establish a city guard army, you need to report to the military hall, but my disciple has no such relationship, so I still ask the master to come forward and support my disciple."

Ling Tianfan said.

"You're a kid, you're very clear about what you do, and you act vigorously and resolutely, but you're also unreasonable and don't care about the consequences."
