Lin Fan was stunned. Why did these officials take the initiative to hand over the money?
Chongzhen was also dumbfounded. After a while, Wang Chengen showed the statistical results to Chongzhen. At this time, the amount of money he collected reached more than 20 million taels of silver!
hiss!
Even Chongzhen was so frightened that he gasped!
I am really a fool, what Lin Fan said was absolutely correct!
I yell every day to temporarily burden our people for a year, but the money is not enough every year. I am really being embezzled by these officials!
"Damn it, aren't these people just guarding me?
I was worried that my house would be confiscated, so I gave all my money to that idiot Chongzhen!"
"Wait! Just wait, I will never spare you!"
Lin Fan thought in his heart.
When Chongzhen heard Lin Fan's thoughts, he couldn't help but nodded to him. His son must avenge himself, and these officials should indeed be killed!
Just when Chongzhen was looking at him, Lin Fan also saw Chongzhen looking at him, and his expression immediately changed: "Why is this idiot Chongzhen still looking at me? Doesn't he really like me?"
…
Chongzhen really wanted to beat Lin Fan twenty times, but he couldn't bear it. After all, his son was too good, so he thought about it and let him do it.
"Ahem! Your Majesty, our court now has money. Wei Chen suggested that we use this money to prevent and control the epidemic!"
At this moment, an official coughed twice and said.
"Yes, Your Majesty, the plague is raging in the city now. If we don't find a way to prevent and control it, the people will complain and the people in the city will be unstable!"
Another official spoke out.
When Chongzhen heard this, he immediately agreed to the matter, and Lin Fan's heartbeat echoed again: "Haha! These officials really dare to think about it. They were worried that my house would be confiscated because of the money, so they gave it away!"
"I gave it, but I was reluctant to give it up. If we take the prevention and control of the epidemic as an example, if this fool like Chongzhen dares to agree, they will definitely spend all the more than two thousand taels of silver, but the plague in the city will not get any better.
.”
"However, it is imperative to prevent and control the plague. It seems that I still have to take action personally. With such a severe situation in the city, it will take three days to control the plague!"
kindness!
Hearing Lin Fan's thoughts, Chongzhen's originally open mouth closed again. His son was right. If he agreed to use money to prevent and control the epidemic, wouldn't they have to take the money back again?
However, this kid can control such a serious epidemic in three days?
It can’t be fake!
"Your Majesty, we cannot delay the prevention and control of the epidemic!"
Seeing that Chongzhen was reluctant to speak, the bachelor Fan Jingwen thought it was because he was reluctant to give up the money, so he hurriedly spoke again.
"Your Majesty, this matter cannot be delayed!"
The officials said one after another.
Chongzhen coughed twice and said: "The prevention and control of the epidemic cannot be delayed. I have decided that Lin Fan will be under the command of Jin Yiwei to prevent and control the epidemic!"
"He already has money there. If the money is not enough, the 20 million taels of silver from the treasury can be transferred away."
…
"This... Chongzhen, you old kid is too much of a beast, why do you want to put it on my head for everything?"
"I just want to help you prevent and control the epidemic, but I do it privately. It doesn't matter whether it succeeds or not. Now you put this task on my head. If I can't do it, I will be impeached by the officials again!"
Lin Fan couldn't help but cursed in his heart.
Chongzhen clenched his fists angrily. If they were the only two in the room, Chongzhen would definitely slap him. This kid is such a bastard. He didn't use such a good opportunity to make a meritorious deed.
"Ahem! Your Majesty, although Commander Lin is extremely intelligent, he is still young after all. Moreover, he doesn't know anything about the plague, and he doesn't have any medical skills. How can he prevent and control the plague?"
Ni Yuanlu, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs said.
"Yes, Your Majesty, I heard that Lin Fan was infected with the plague some time ago. Although he was lucky enough to survive, it also shows the problem. This person is no match for the plague!"
"Your Majesty, this special task needs to be done by dedicated personnel. Please leave this matter to our Ministry of Works. Our people from the Ministry of Works will definitely do a good job in this matter!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, this matter should be left to the Ministry of Industry!"
Officials from various ministries said one after another.
As long as this matter doesn't fall on Jin Yiwei's head, they can keep the money. If it falls on Jin Yiwei's head, they really won't be able to keep even one tael of silver.
"Ahem! Your Majesty, just leave this matter to me. Because I have had the plague, I have a certain resistance to the plague. Even if I come into contact with it, it is difficult to be infected again!"
Lin Fan coughed twice and said.
When Chongzhen heard what Lin Fan said, he thought that his son had finally enlightened, and said happily: "Okay! With your words, I feel relieved!"
"Haha! Don't worry. If I don't want to see you being played by these officials, I will definitely leave you alone. You can save me some trouble in the future!"
Lin Fan thought in his heart.
He really couldn't stand it anymore when these officials ganged up to play tricks on Chongzhen. Even if Chongzhen was so stubborn that he killed the Ming Dynasty alive, you can't play with him like this!
Forehead……
When Chongzhen heard Lin Fan's voice, he was petrified on the spot. When would he become better in his son's heart...
"Commander Lin, you have issued a military order now. If you fail to prevent the epidemic properly, you will be beheaded!"
One person said coldly.
Since they couldn't get the money back, they simply forced Lin Fan to issue a military order and cut off his head if he failed to prevent the epidemic.
When one person spoke, all the officials present shouted: "Yes! This is a military order. Your Majesty, it's better to make this matter clear. After all, epidemic prevention is not a child's play!"
Chongzhen said in a deep voice: "This epidemic is already raging, can you guarantee 100% prevention and control?
If any of you can issue a military order, I will let you do it!"
ah!
When all the officials heard what Chongzhen said, they were all shocked and couldn't help but take a few steps back. Lin Fan looked at Chongzhen, his face full of emotion, and said: "Your Majesty, I can issue a military order for this matter.
I can definitely prevent and control the plague!"
Chongzhen looked at Lin Fan. Since he was so confident, as a father, he could only support him with all his strength!
"Okay! If you have any difficulties, just tell me and I will fully support you!"
Chongzhen said in a deep voice.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Lin Fan said.
However, what Lin Fan was thinking was: "When I succeed in preventing and controlling the epidemic this time, I will find a way to find a few storytellers and make up some jokes about me being a real dragon descending from the earth. Wouldn't it be great!"
