Cabinet Minister Wei Shiming and Zuo Du Yushi Li Yuanzheng walked quickly towards the Yellow River embankment where the problem occurred.
This is nine kilometers downstream of Jiningfu Reservoir and the first turning point of the new Yellow River channel.
The river water released from Jiningfu Reservoir will hit the Yellow River embankment here immediately.
The Yellow River embankment here is extremely important. Once the embankment breaks, it will submerge less than half of Shandong.
When Wei Shiming thought of this, he broke into a cold sweat.
There are serious problems with the quality of the Yellow River embankment here.
If they had not discovered it, once the new channel of the Yellow River was officially introduced into the Yellow River water, it would cause the embankment to collapse in one day.
If this situation really happened, Wei Shiming could not imagine how angry His Majesty the Emperor would be.
The life of the relevant official is in danger. He is responsible for inspecting the Yellow River embankment and will bear joint liability and his official career will be cut off.
No wonder burying telephone poles can directly dig a big hole in the Yellow River embankment.
If these Yellow River embankments collapse, Jining Prefecture will definitely turn into a marshy country.
Zhang Qinian, the censor of Qiandu, tried Xie Yuan, a black-hearted businessman, and found that there was something complicated behind the matter.
When Song Wenjie was inspecting the Yellow River embankment, he thought about what they should do so that they could quickly and accurately obtain the true quality of the Yellow River embankment within a limited time.
Li Yuanzheng only completed the initial investigation of the case, but achieved certain results. He immediately called Wei Shiming.
After he took control of the Jining Prefectural Procuratorate, he immediately arrested Xie Yuan, the contractor of the tofu project.
Li Yuanzheng still has an important task: to find out how many shoddy projects are involved in the Yellow River Project?
The censor's speed in questioning officials is many times faster than the experts from the Ministry of Industry who inspect the Yellow River embankment inch by inch.
The quality of the Yellow River embankments they built is guaranteed.
Xie Yuan's ability is definitely not the mastermind behind the scenes, he is just a pawn who was pushed onto the stage.
Anyone who fills things up with mud knows nothing.
Li Yuanzheng, the imperial censor of Zuodu, read the file in his hand.
The large-scale dispatch of censors from the Metropolitan Procuratorate directly shocked Shandong officialdom.
Wei Shiming's first words when he saw Li Yuanzheng made Li Yuanzheng tense.
These people also have certain means. They can put a concrete shell on the outside to make the Yellow River embankment last for a period of time.
If you find a mouse in your home, there are probably several litters of mice.
He carefully looked through the information Li Yuanzheng found and found that there were eight sections of the concrete Yellow River embankment with problems, with a total length of up to five kilometers.
His actions directly led to the paralysis of the Jining government.
At first we thought that drilling holes would cause damage to the Yellow River embankment, so we did not choose to use this technology to test the quality of the Yellow River embankment.
“The contractors for the Yellow River Embankment are very mixed, and there are many companies with backgrounds who are not greedy for the project money.
Wei Shiming has already asked people to start rebuilding a new concrete Yellow River embankment.
Although the mud is dry, I can still see clearly that there are fish bones and grass roots in the mud.
The normal flow of water in the Yellow River during the rainy season can destroy this levee.
When Li Shengyun, the governor of Shandong Province, saw the somewhat desolate Jining Magistrate's Office, he muttered: "Jining's officialdom will not be wiped out by the Metropolitan Procuratorate."
After Li Yuanzheng and Wei Shiming had a brief discussion, they split up.
Drilling a small hole in the middle of the Yellow River embankment and then filling it with concrete will not affect the entire Yellow River embankment. This method is safer.
At the same time that Wei Shiming sent people to inspect the Yellow River embankment in Shandong.
The most urgent thing now is to determine which parts of the Yellow River embankment are of acceptable quality and which ones are shoddy projects.
Wei Shiming saw that these rubbish projects were all located at the most important locations along the Yellow River in Jining Prefecture.
Once it is discovered that there are problems with the Yellow River embankments in Henan, a comprehensive inspection of the Yellow River embankments in Henan will be carried out.
He had been mentally prepared before. The quality of the Yellow River embankment in Shandong was poor, and it was likely that some areas would need to be reinforced.
They also asked people to conduct random inspections in the Henan area they had just completed.
He took dozens of officials, including Mei You, the prefect of Jining, to the Metropolitan Procuratorate for review.
The silt from the river channel was directly filled into the Yellow River embankment."
In recent years, Jining Prefecture has regarded the Yellow River Project as a big fat piece of meat. If local officials have a little power, they will lean on the project to suck blood.
When the officials who came with the governor saw this situation, they all felt as if the rabbit was dead and the fox was dead.
He couldn't imagine that the businessmen who built the Yellow River embankment were so courageous.
These people know our Ministry of Industry’s inspection process of the Yellow River embankment.
He has seen many projects that cut corners and cut corners, and here in Jining Prefecture, it was the first time he saw a project that didn't even use materials.
He also used this section of the Yellow River embankment to verify the harm caused by related technologies to the Yellow River embankment through various digging methods.
After finding all the rubbish projects to prevent the new Yellow River channel from diverting water.
Unable to stay in Jinan, he took a train to Jining Prefecture.
We discovered a new way to inspect the Yellow River embankments.
Corrupt local officials cooperated with unscrupulous businessmen and embezzled 7.68 million taels of silver coins from the Yellow River embankment project.
After several days of cleaning, Wei Shiming also got the results.
If the Yellow River embankment there is not up to standard, we are derelict in our duties and it is not too late to make up for it before it is too late."
Fortunately, it is only a turning point of less than one kilometer, so the amount of work required for reconstruction is not large.
Officials with some status are aware of this situation.
Zhang Qinian, the censor of Qiandu, passed Xie Yuan, and they also found several important clues.
He praised: "Song Wenjie, you have done a very good job, I will take credit for you.
The main purpose is to embezzle funds from the Yellow River Project.
Li Yuanzheng has the will of Emperor Su He. As long as it involves the Yellow River Project, the Metropolitan Procuratorate has the right to kill any official first and then report him.
When Song Wenjie saw Wei Shiming leaning down, he immediately lit the carbide lamp in his hand, and a beam of bright light shone into the pit, allowing people to see clearly what was going on in the pit.
To achieve this goal, a faster detection method than before is needed.
Li Shengyun, the governor of Shandong, walked into the Jining Magistrate's Yamen and saw that there were only a small number of officials, barely maintaining the operation of the Yamen.
When Wei Shiming thought of this, he became extremely angry at the corrupt officials and unscrupulous businessmen who had taken action against the Yellow River Embankment.
Li Yuanzheng, the censor of Zuodu, acted very quickly.
Li Yuanzheng led the censors of the Metropolitan Procuratorate to strictly investigate the contractors who built this section of the Yellow River embankment, as well as the yamen at all levels responsible for supervision.
Wei Shiming leaned down and inspected the situation on the Yellow River embankment and the scene in the pit.
The steel bars and cement used are all products that meet the requirements.
He walked out of the Jining Prefecture Magistrate's Office and saw several carriages surrounded by people, driving towards here.
The officials who were caught by the censor bit each other in order to perform meritorious service.
Wei Shiming also received good news: the Yellow River embankment was not entirely a dregs project.
No matter who is involved this time, I must bring all these people to justice."
In this way, they have the opportunity to get the final payment, and as soon as they get the money, they will immediately flee to other places.
"Xiang Wei, after our investigation during this period, we found that the Yellow River Embankment's fraud techniques are very sophisticated.
We conduct violent inspections. If the inspectors are not careful, it will be difficult to detect the condition of the Yellow River embankment.
The Yellow River Embankment is a project related to the national economy and people's livelihood, but corrupt officials and unscrupulous businessmen dare to take action.
The drilling technology is not as serious as they previously expected and will not have a structural impact on the Yellow River embankment.
A company established in collusion between government and businessmen, the Yellow River embankment they built was completely a shoddy project.
Now that there are faster detection methods, Wei Shiming will definitely support them.
This was the first time Wei Shiming had seen the poor quality of this shoddy project.
Li Yuanzheng discovered that the Yellow River embankment was a shoddy project. This was an open secret in Jining Prefecture.
Song Wenjie, a foreign minister from the Ministry of Industry, walked up to Wei Shiming.
He saw a somewhat familiar figure, Li Yuanzheng, the censor of Zuodu.
He saw telegraph office workers digging holes and discovered problems with the Yellow River embankment.
This shoddy project must be completely cleaned up, as it has no value in reinforcement.
Workers from the General Telegraph Bureau drove piles from the top of the embankment downwards and directly penetrated the Yellow River embankment. Only then did we understand the true situation of this section of the Yellow River embankment.
Li Yuanzheng took the censor directly to the Yamen of the prefect of Jining Prefecture.
After the telegraph office workers drilled the holes, I led a team of experts to inspect the location of the holes in detail.
After the silt dried up and sank, it was unable to support the top, and many cavities were formed in the embankment.
They basically choose to build the most profitable concrete embankment.
The good governance that took the court several years to complete turned into a harmful and harmful governance due to some corrupt officials.
The officials of Jining Prefecture are simply crazy. They use all their hands to turn the Yellow River embankment into a shoddy project.
Wei Shiming watched as migrant workers were hired to completely demolish the problematic Yellow River embankment.
It was found that even if holes are drilled in the Yellow River embankment, as long as the holes are filled in time, it will not have much impact on the Yellow River embankment.
We now have a more convenient testing method. We recommend using this method to quickly test the quality of the Yellow River embankment.
We all know that there is someone behind Mei You, but we just can't find the key evidence.
In a short period of time, Jining Mansion lost two-thirds of its officials above the sixth rank.
The Yellow River embankment that should have been filled with concrete was not even filled with rammed earth, let alone concrete.
After Li Yuanzheng finished speaking, he handed a map to Wei Shiming.
Wei Shiming didn't care about the case, he was more concerned about the total amount of Jining Prefecture's Yellow River Embankment tofu project.
Inside the hole is completely dried mud that exudes a foul odor.
Li Yuanzheng, the censor of Zuodu, issued an order, and the censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate rushed to various places in Shandong to arrest the officials involved in the case.
Wei Shiming slammed the table angrily and said angrily: "These corrupt officials must be severely punished."
Wei Shiming expressed gratitude: "It has been of great help to us. With this map, I can have people focus on checking these places without wasting manpower in other places."
The first thing he did when he led the censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate was to take over the entire Jining Prefecture Metropolitan Procuratorate.
Wei Shiming was responsible for commanding on the Yellow River embankment and thoroughly inspecting the Yellow River embankment in Shandong.
He did not forget his main responsibility, which was not just to discover the problem of the Yellow River embankment.
Regarding the situation of the Yellow River embankment, those unscrupulous businessmen and corrupt officials have made everything clear."
Xie Yuan's dandy son is responsible for the section where we discovered the problem.
Only some concrete is used on the outside of the embankment, and the inside is filled with gravel or sand.
There is only a thin layer of concrete outside the Yellow River embankment, which is filled with silt from the river.
Wei Shiming saw that Li Yuanzheng was very busy, so he said goodbye and left, and immediately arranged for people from the Ministry of Industry to check the locations marked on the map in detail.
…………………………
Wei Shiming could only appeal to His Majesty the Emperor to postpone the new Yellow River water diversion project.
Li Yuanzheng couldn't help but feel guilty, and all officials involved were immediately taken away for investigation.
Li Yuanzheng, the censor of the left governor, said in a serious tone: "Master Wei, don't worry, I will definitely deal with these people seriously.
The Yellow River embankment project has turned into a shoddy project, and the Jining Prefectural Procuratorate has an unshirkable responsibility.
They used expensive reinforced concrete to construct the hard concrete shell outside the Yellow River embankment.
The censor conducted a surprise trial on this man and obtained important evidence of collusion between officials and businessmen.
Normal private companies engaged in engineering projects only want to earn project fees.
As long as the floodwater breaks through the outer layer of concrete, the embankment will collapse in an instant."
Wei Shiming said angrily: "This section of the Yellow River embankment is a veritable shoddy project.
When Wei Shiming heard Song Wenjie's report, his depressed mood improved a bit.
Will the investigation of this case be helpful to your future work?"
After encountering a problem, he still has to find a way to solve it.
Li Shengyun, the governor of Shandong, saw that the officials in Shandong's officialdom were panic-stricken.
Song Wenjie decided to quickly test the quality of the Yellow River embankment by drilling holes in it.
Many of the things these corrupt officials have done are shocking.
The land of the Yellow River in the Shandong section needs to be inspected in detail.
The prospecting team of the Ministry of Industry has relevant technology, and we are confident that through this technology, we can complete the inspection of the Yellow River embankment in Shandong in only half a month."
Has Mr. Li’s case come to a conclusion?
I expect that His Majesty the Emperor will take part in this case soon."
Li Yuanzheng, the censor of Zuodu, saw the Yellow River embankment and said angrily: "This is a scumbag project.
The problematic Yellow River embankment is too long and cannot be rebuilt in a short time.
"Master Li, the telegraph office has sent a notice that the telegrams between Jining and Beijing will be connected soon.
To say it is a shoddy project is to praise this project.
Wei Shiming looked at the big pit and took a breath of cold air.
Mei You definitely doesn't have this ability. There is a giant behind it, manipulating this matter.
I don't even need professional knowledge. I can tell at a glance that this Yellow River embankment can withstand floods, let alone floods.
Li Yuanzheng sighed and said: "The preliminary situation has been investigated clearly, but with the strength of Mei You, the prefect of Jining, he cannot handle this major case.
The rammed-earth Yellow River embankment was built very solidly. The earth was repeatedly crushed and became very compact.
Song Wenjie, please immediately send people to inspect the Yellow River embankments in Henan.
They came to a large pit where many people were gathered.
Mei You's tone is very tight. We have already used severe punishment, but he is ready to take everything down.
…………………………
We don’t know how many people will be affected by the floods by then.
They cleaned up the rubbish project and saw the section of the rammed earth Yellow River embankment.
He went to the capital to report on his work and met the upright leader of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
Governor Li Shengyun's expression changed drastically. He originally expected to meet Zhang Qinian, the censor of Qiandu.
Unexpectedly, Li Yuanzheng, the left governor's censor, was personally responsible for the case this time.
