Chapter 1579 Chapter 1580: Imperial Capital Investigation Team
Essien has no choice. If he doesn't do this, he will be the one who gets kicked off, and the entire family may fall as a result.
After so many years of development, Essien's family has grown from obscurity to the leading family in the empire, all thanks to him as the Minister of State.
Although the family is developing very fast, the younger generation has not yet grown up. The family's nephews and nephews are from too low a background. Even if they have attended the Imperial Academy in recent years and have often taught by words and deeds, it is still difficult to truly stand alone.
This is due to the helplessness of a grassroots background and a poor family background.
It will take at least one or two generations for this situation to get better.
Brut, the logistics director of Wellynklon City Hall, has been very proud of himself recently.
There is no other reason. After a major earthquake occurred in Donner County within the jurisdiction of Wellynklon, and the city of Wellynkron entered a wartime state, in order to maximize the rescue of the affected people, the Wellynklon City Hall called on the public to support the rescue, which received a lot of support.
Great response.
The method of support is very simple, nothing more than one sentence: those with money contribute money, and those with strength contribute.
Brut is not responsible for the effort. Those young people who voluntarily go to disaster areas to rescue, transport supplies, and rebuild their homes, who do not need a salary from the city hall, have nothing to do with Brut, the logistics director.
He is in charge of the city hall's warehouse, which is the city's logistics warehouse. What needs to be connected is naturally the materials and money donated by the private sector to the city hall for war preparations.
During this period of time, Brut was happy to see the amount of money in the account books gradually increasing to a level that he could not imagine, and to see the materials and food in the warehouse being piled higher and higher, so high that they became the shape of mountains.
He couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear, just like an old farmer looking at his warehouse after a good harvest.
"The empire has developed rapidly in the past few years. Even ordinary people have such wealth. This is all thanks to the city hall leading the development. It is natural for them to donate materials and money."
The deputy director who accompanied Brut on his inspection of the warehouse saw that the smile on Brut's face had never dissipated, so he said all the flattering words that suited the situation.
Originally Brut's face was full of joy just now, but this time his expression suddenly changed, he snorted arrogantly, and said with some dissatisfaction: "The total amount is only tens of millions of new Merlot coins!"
"There are millions of people in the city of Welinkron. On average, each person does not donate much. If Wellynkron wants to rebuild and restore production and business, it must invest a lot of money. These guys are not willing to spend all their money to help.
City Hall, does it mean that the later the city is rebuilt, the slower it will be for them to return to their original good days?"
"A bunch of short-sighted guys, so stupid!"
The deputy director never expected that Brut would have such thoughts. He opened his mouth and didn't know what to say. In his opinion, the amount of money donated by the people of Welinkron City was incredible.
"Sir Truett, the rescue team has sent people here. They said that the weather is turning cold now, and many rescued people cannot be transferred for the time being and need to be treated on the spot. I hope to receive some emergency medicine and tents." An officer from the Logistics Department came.
Report.
When the deputy director heard this, he was about to take the initiative to share the chores for Brut and prepare supplies for the rescue team that came from afar to help the city of Welinkron fight the disaster. Unexpectedly, Brut's eyes widened.
"What kind of rescue team, when the logistics warehouse of the city hall belongs to his family, they want whatever they want? It's really unreasonable! Let them get away as far as they want! Is this a place where anyone can come?"
Ordinary operators received a scolding in vain. Although they felt that they were wronged, they did not dare to say anything and had to accept the order and leave.
The deputy director hesitated for a moment.
"Sir, these materials are donated by the private sector. They are meant to be used for disaster relief. We will give some fabrics to the rescue team."
Over the past few days, there have been more and more money and materials in the city's logistics warehouse, but they can only go in and out. Brut has never let out a single thing. The deputy director has long been puzzled, so he took the opportunity to find out what the other party is saying.
.
"When these things enter the city's logistics warehouse, I have the final say on how to use them. If others want it, are they the logistics director, or am I the logistics master?" Brut interrupted the deputy coldly.
Director's words.
His eyes fell on the piles of fabrics, as if looking at his own private property.
After being the logistics director for so many years, he has never seen the city's logistics warehouse so full, and there has never been a moment when he felt that the power in his hands was so powerful. Since the territory was taken back by the empire, his life has been very difficult.
Struggle.
He almost lost all his capital in business, and finally, with the help of an old friend, he entered the city hall to hang out. On weekdays, the warehouse was empty enough for rats to run around, making it impossible for him to enrich himself even if he wanted to.
Seeing the deputy director hesitate to speak, Brut chuckled.
"These days, the city is doing its best to provide disaster relief, and everyone at the city hall is working hard. You go and get 100,000 new Mello coins to distribute to officials at all levels, which is a reward for everyone. I have already discussed this matter with the mayor.
, go and do it immediately.”
The deputy director was stunned for a while before he came back to his senses.
When people donated these things, they thought they would be used in the war effort, but they never expected that they would end up in the pockets of the city hall and become the welfare of city hall civil servants.
The deputy director is from an ordinary citizen. Although he still has some conscience, but in recent years, he has been corrupted by the temptations of old aristocratic superiors such as Brut. There is not much left. I heard that there is money to be distributed, and it has to go through his hands. The deputy director
Immediately his eyes lit up and he responded.
As for the people affected by the disaster, how can they, the officials, have the strength to rescue them if they don't have enough to eat?
As for the rescue teams organized by non-governmental organizations, they are just a bunch of idiots. As long as they are given food, they will put aside their work and run to save people.
The deputy director cursed in his heart, and the last trace of conscience in his heart was completely reduced to ashes because of these 100,000 new Merlot coins.
At the same time, the imperial capital Melo sent an investigation team to the province of Cleveland to investigate the corruption situation there, attracting the attention of the governor of the province of Cleveland. At the same time, the imperial capital's investigation team was secretly sent to the city of Welinglon.
The people in the investigation team are all young people and are in the most passionate state.
They had known about this mission for a long time, and they were even more angry about the corruption and abuse of law in Wellynklon City.
"If these imperial worms cannot be dealt with, the empire's thousand-year foundation will be destroyed in one day, and the old aristocrats and bureaucrats deserve to die."
On the plane, a young man said with great anger: "This time we secretly enter Welinklon, we must punish the officials of Welinklon, especially the old aristocratic officials."
Aslan, who was hiding in the investigation team, had a strange expression on his face. The young man in front of him was so hostile to the old nobles. Could he be deliberately causing trouble during the investigation?
