Liang Renfang was stunned for a moment, and then he started to sweat.
All the subordinate officials couldn't believe it. This was calculated? And judging from Liang Renfang's expression, it was not bad at all!
It's simply evil...
Before Liang Renfang could speak, Ren Zhongliu hurriedly scolded: "Why are you doing things so hastily? Accounts are of such great importance that you cannot be careless! Could it be that Mr. Liang has forgotten how the previous doctor was impeached by the imperial censor? Why don't you hurry back and start over again?"
Calculation, are you bringing it to show to the Minister?"
Liang Renfang looked ashamed, lowering his head and not daring to look at anyone: "Yes, yes, I know my mistake. I will go back and re-audit..."
"No need!" Fang Jun sneered: "You are not wrong because of the audit error, but because of the wrong attitude! What's the matter, you look at me, Fang Jun, as a young man, and use me as a big stick? Do you really think that I, the minister, am a vegetarian?!"
Fang Jun asked sternly, but Liang Renfang did not quibble and lowered his head in silence.
The nature of this matter is extremely bad. This is to dig a hole for Fang Jun and let him jump into it!
Because it was Fang Jun's first day at work, the situation was unclear, and he was still young and energetic, so he would inevitably make some omissions when facing his subordinates' reports. Liang Renfang deliberately made the accounts confusing, and the large data were messy. Once Fang Jun
Fang Jun failed to notice that after signing and deeding, more than 10,000 yuan was hidden in the account, and that was his responsibility, Fang Jun!
Simply intolerable!
You can't bully people like this, right? On the first day you take office, buddy, you make a sinkhole for me to jump into!
Once these more than 10,000 mistakes are found to be Fang Jun's fault, it would be easy to lose his official position. If he is overtaken by a difficult censor, he may even be exiled from the army and exiled!
Fang Jun pointed at Liang Renfang and said coldly: "From now on, you are no longer an official of the Water Department. Pack up and go home!"
This kind of person must not be allowed to stay!
This is because Fang Jun was a little soft-hearted due to the influence of his past life thinking, or if it had been someone else, it would have been easy to take him to Dali Temple for a thorough investigation!
Liang Renfang looked defeated, pursed his lips tightly, and said nothing. His dark-skinned face, which looked like an old farmer's, was full of disappointment. His straight back instantly bent, he bowed slightly to Fang Jun, and turned around to leave.
The white-bearded old man who had been concentrating with his eyes closed now opened his eyelids and sighed slightly: "Secretary of the House, please be merciful!"
Fang Jun glanced at him, Zheng Kunchang, the eldest director of the Water Department.
Officials of the Ministry of Water Resources are elected for a term of three years. If they pass the assessment at the end of the term, they can be promoted to one level. If they fail to be promoted at the end of one term, they will stay for another term with more senior qualifications. This is also an assessment standard. Generally, if they do not make mistakes, they will be promoted to one level.
He will definitely be promoted to the next level. But if it lasts three years and three years and three years and three years...then it's not whether the seniority is deep or not, but rather a cold bench in the corner...
Fang Jun was not a person who favored others but did not intend to save face for the old man. He said coldly: "I am not a mean person, but I will definitely not be allowed to stay when I look like a despicable villain like this who framed Shangguan!"
What a joke, if I don’t show you some strength, are you really treating a tiger as a sick cat?
No matter how smart a person is, there are times when he is negligent, and the worst is when people around him are unable to guard against it. If all subordinates do this, won't all leaders be killed?
Zheng Kunchang sighed and said helplessly: "Master Liang has no choice but to do this..."
Liang Renfang lowered his head and said: "Mr. Zheng, don't say anything anymore. As of now, I have acted on my own will. I cannot blame the Lord Assistant. What's more, the Assistant Minister has shown mercy. If I hand someone over to Dali Temple, my reputation will be ruined for the rest of my life."
…”
Ren Zhongliu hesitated for a moment, put down his robe, knelt down on one knee, and said loudly: "Master Liang made a mistake, but there is a reason for it. Please give him a chance, sir!"
Seeing this, the other people also knelt down on one knee: "Please give Master Liang a chance!"
Unexpectedly, Liang Renfang was at a loss for words, but was moved to tears.
In this cunning and deceitful officialdom, to have such a group of colleagues who speak out and uprightly means that they are willing to take the blame!
Fang Jun's face turned pale and he said nothing.
He is really angry!
What's going on, on the first day you take office, you guys are going to give us a slap in the face?
Do you really think that if we join forces, we won’t be able to deal with you?
joke!
Over there, Zheng Kun saw the situation, sighed, stood up tremblingly, and followed suit, kneeling down to beg for mercy.
Even if Fang Jun is very angry, he can't let such an old man kneel down to him. His reputation will be ruined! Although he has never had a good reputation, this is different!
It's okay to be arrogant and domineering, but it's okay to disrespect the elderly!
In this era, even an old man living in a ravine can go directly to Tai Chi Palace as long as he can walk. Even if the reason is just to see what the emperor looks like, His Majesty Li Er must see him!
This is a national tradition!
Fang Jun's face was as dark as water and he said: "Are you trying to hurt me?"
unacceptable!
Zheng Kunchang has lived for such a long time, what has he never seen? He immediately knew that he was reckless.
Seeing Fang Jun's expression, he knew that this man was extremely angry. If he knelt down like this again, it would be like slapping Fang Jun in the face. Not only would there be no room for change, but it would escalate immediately!
Zheng Kunchang had no choice but to sit back again, looked at Fang Jun and said, "Master Fang, can you please tell me the reason for this?"
Fang Jun pondered for a moment, and felt that there must be a reason why these people would not fight with him to death on the first day, so he said: "Please tell me! If it makes sense, I can ignore your crime of coercing the superior.
, but I have something to say first, Liang Renfang’s design to frame Shangguan is unforgivable! Even if I am not fired, I have to leave the Water Department!"
Zheng Kunchang gave a wry smile and glanced at several colleagues: "You are so smart, are you dumbfounded now?"
Then, slowly explain the reason for the incident.
Although the accounts reported by Liang Renfang to Fang Jun were deliberately messed up by him and appeared disorganized, there was not a single modification. In fact, more than 10,000 yuan was indeed missing from the accounts of the Water Department Department.
It involves the former doctor who was seriously ill and took leave of absence after being impeached by the imperial censor.
That doctor had a backer, and he was able to take leave and go home safely despite being impeached by the imperial censor. This shows that the backer's energy is very extraordinary.
But these are not important. Even if he is beheaded, it is his own fault and no one will sympathize with him.
But the crux of the problem is that these more than ten thousand yuan disappeared out of thin air and cannot be accounted for! Even if it is corrupted, it has to go somewhere! Although everyone knows that it is related to the former doctor, he has not confessed his crime.
, then it doesn’t count! If the accounts are not paid properly, the Ministry of People’s Republic of China will not review it. If it does not review it, this year’s allocation will not be released!
The Department of Water Resources is a Qingshui yamen, and Qingshui's money is spent. There is no project to bring in money. What should we do about the spring floods?
If we delay the spring flood control, if something goes wrong and the river breaks its banks, how many people will die?
However, everyone knows that these more than 10,000 people are aware of it, and no one will believe it even if they want to find someone to take the blame.
Seeing that the spring floods are coming, the water department department is in a state of panic. Poor me, a great god appears out of thin air!
Liang Renfang has a solution.
He fooled the new minister into signing a pledge. With this person's reputation and the power of his father Fang Xuanling, how could the people in the Ministry of Revenue not give him face?
As long as the review is passed and the money is distributed, everything will be enough!
As for whether Fang Jun would be held responsible for this, Liang Renfang had no choice. If he hadn't been unable to carry it even if he wanted to, he would have done it himself.
In his opinion, compared with the people on both sides of the Yellow River, what does a personal injustice mean?
Anyway, Fang Jun has a good reputation and will not be beheaded...
Fang Jun was so angry that he laughed!
To be honest, Fang Jun sincerely admires officials who think about the people, but he actually becomes the villain in this, which is unbearable!
Cursed: "You and I are all honest officials who care about the country and the people, so why am I just a fool who is being taken advantage of?"
Everyone was ashamed. Although Liang Renfang thought up and implemented this matter, everyone knew about it and always felt guilty.
Liang Renfang lowered his head to the ground and said: "My subordinates made mistakes, and they should not have tricked the superiors. Just rely on handling, and there will be no complaints!"
Fang Jun snorted and said: "Of course you are wrong, you are absolutely wrong! What makes me even more agitated is that you are so stupid!"
Liang Renfang was puzzled: "Why is this so stupid?"
Although the strategy failed, I didn't expect that this young dude could be called a master of mathematics, but his strategy was still good. Why did he get the word "stupid"?
Fang Jun snorted: "I'm here to ask you why you let me top the tank?"
Although Liang Renfang didn't understand what "top cylinder" meant, he could roughly understand: "Because the minister's backing is strong enough."
This is the truth. With Fang Xuanling and His Majesty Li Er standing behind him, who can be tougher than him?
Fang Jun looked disappointed: "Since you know that someone has a strong backer, why do you just want to let someone have a roofless tank instead of asking someone to go to the Ministry of Household Affairs to ask for funding?"
Liang Renfang said blankly: "According to the rules, if last year's accounts cannot pass the review, the Ministry of Civil Affairs will not allocate funds for this year... Oops!"
