Absolute power will breed absolute corruption, which is inevitable in any world.
Behind the era of cultivation is the rise of a large number of interest groups. Today, corruption has taken up a very serious proportion.
The human race has a total of 276 territories, equivalent to 276 autonomous territories.
In these autonomous territories, the Mahayana monks who established a territory were equivalent to beings like princes and kings.
Under the princes and kings, there are many small and medium-sized forces, as well as government departments directly under the parliament, where tax evasion and corruption problems continue to occur.
Wang Xu quickly accepted the parliamentary appointment after several days of waiting.
The Cultivation Council appointed him as the deputy leader of the anti-corruption investigation team in Wanjianyu, the first anti-corruption bureau under the Supreme Procuratorate of the Cultivation Council.
Wherever there are people, there is always a crime bureau. Prison is an institution that always goes hand in hand with law enforcement.
Wanjianyu belongs to the Feijian lineage and is famous for its fighting. There are many warlike people everywhere.
There are countless people who get into fights over a disagreement. In this realm where gratification is important, breaking the law is as easy as eating and drinking. This shows the necessity of prison.
According to the information given to Wang Xu by the Anti-Corruption Bureau, Wanjianyu has the largest and most numerous prisons in the era of cultivation.
Although these prisons are affiliated with local governments.
However, due to the closed nature of the prison, corruption is rampant inside. It is said that criminals can still dominate inside as long as they are willing to spend money.
Of course, this is not the most difficult thing for Parliament to accept.
What really makes the parliament feel that it is necessary to strengthen the rectification of prisons is that the gray industries operated inside the prisons actually do not report accounts and pay taxes. How can this be tolerated?
On the one hand, the prison requested funding from the government on the grounds of strengthening security and purchasing equipment.
On the one hand, he eats the plaintiff and the defendant, takes bribes from prisoners in all kinds of ways, and even openly operates gray industries. Even the little prison guards are enjoying themselves, let alone the bosses above.
Statistics show that 37% of the tax revenue in Wanjian Territory is consumed in the law enforcement system, and within the law enforcement system, nearly 40% of the funds are consumed in prisons.
Taken together, the existence of prisons accounts for 17% of tax revenue.
For such a large territory, 17% of the fiscal revenue is enough to support an army.
In fact, prison expenses are still rising every year. They always complain that the welfare is not good enough, there is a lack of necessary equipment, the number of law enforcement personnel is in short supply, and there are too many prisoners and they need to expand.
However, according to the calculations of the parliament, even if the prison in Wanjianyu cannot be self-sufficient, it will not use so many resources.
At least more than 60% of resources are wasted by graft and corruption, and less than 40% are actually used for prisons.
If this problem is solved, the annual tax consumption of prisons can be reduced from 17% to 10%, or less.
Wang Xu's mission is to investigate the actual conditions of these prisons, formulate relevant provisions to improve corruption, and end the phenomenon of private kingdoms within prisons.
Wanjianyu, Yuyang District, Huanghua Prison.
"Welcome everyone from the anti-corruption investigation team to the largest prison in Yuyang District, Huanghua Prison. I am the warden Huang Haihua, the top person in charge of the prison."
Wang Xu, wearing a black uniform and leading eight members of the investigation team, received a warm reception as soon as he got off the spacecraft.
The prison was headed by warden Huang Haihua, including four deputy wardens, a prison guard supervisor, a riot supervisor, a logistics department supervisor, and 12 prison district leaders, who all appeared at the welcome ceremony.
.
In addition, there were hundreds of prison guards and dozens of prison civilian staff present, and basically all the prominent figures in the prison were present.
"Nice to meet you all. I am Wang Xu, deputy leader of the anti-corruption investigation team. I shouldn't need to tell you why we are here, right?"
Wang Xu held a document in his hand, looked around, and said: "The parliament has reached an intolerable level of corruption in various territories. In the Wanjian Territory, the issue of prison corruption is a top priority. I
I hope that the upcoming trip will not make you panic."
"No, our Huanghua Prison has been responding to the call of the parliament. Although our prison is the largest prison in Wanjian Territory, we all abide by the law and there will be absolutely no corruption."
Huang Haihua is a fat middle-aged man, his fat trembles when he smiles, and he weighs at least more than 400 kilograms.
Looking at his weight, Wang Xu didn't believe that he was an upright prison warden, let alone Huanghua Prison, as the largest prison in Wanjianyu. If it took the lead in not being corrupt, the corruption problem in Wanjianyu's prison would not be solved.
So serious.
"Warden Huang Haihua, as an individual, of course I trust you, but as the deputy leader of the anti-corruption team, my professional characteristics tell me that I should not draw conclusions too early."
Wang Xu looked at the documents in his hand and said: "The documents show that the two deputy wardens of Huanghua Prison, one is your son's father-in-law, and the other is your classmate at the Higher Cultivation Academy.
The two prison guard supervisors and explosion protection supervisors responsible for security issues, one is your brother-in-law and the other is your nephew. Of the twelve regional directors, more than half are related to you by blood. Am I right?"
"Those who are able work hard. I do not shy away from relatives. I have never had any mistakes in the prison in these years. Thanks to these people for helping me." Huang Haihua said with a naive smile. Even though Wang Xu's questions were sharp, he was not tough at all.
posture, but put his attitude very low.
Wang Xu thought deeply about this. He was 100% sure that Huang Haihua was a slippery old fox. Not to mention the sharp questions, even if he said he wanted to sleep with Huang Haihua's wife, he could agree with a smile.
When dealing with these people, you don't have to try to find out what they are talking about.
Wang Xu even suspected that Huang Haihua had received the news before his spaceship arrived at Wanjian Territory.
If you go and check now, you will definitely find nothing. Whether it is the prison's internal account books or the prison's running bills, even if it cannot be said to be clean, it must not be related to corruption.
As for the private factories inside the prison that relied on prisoners to run, most of them have disappeared, and the few that remain will only be unprofitable or require the prison to pay back.
"Needless to say sarcastic remarks, my colleagues and I will see for ourselves what is going on inside the prison. Now, I would like to reiterate our rights and your obligations.
We come from the Supreme Procuratorate under the Cultivation Council, which is directly under the leadership of the Anti-Corruption Bureau.
We have the right to ask questions to any of you at any time and at any place. You have no right to remain silent. You must answer all questions. These answers will be registered and will be randomly checked twice.
There is no confidential area for us inside your prison. When we think a place needs to be inspected, you need to cooperate with us unconditionally. Any evasion will be defined as obstructing the investigation, and we have the right to arrest you.
You may think it's unfair and want to protest, yes, this is your right.
But before receiving a second order from the Procuratorate or the Anti-Corruption Bureau, your dissatisfaction cannot be used as an excuse to obstruct the investigation. Please do not try to anger me. I represent the will of the parliament."
Wang Xu closed the document, glanced at everyone again, and asked: "Do you have anything you want to ask? If not, my people will take action."
"Please rest assured, sirs, whether it is prisoners, prison guards, supervisors, civilian staff, or me, all of us will know everything and will fully cooperate with you." Huang Haihua sighed and added: "As a government official, for
I am very worried about the endless corruption problems within the alliance. I hope for the stars and the moon, and finally I hope you are here.
Don't worry, no matter what other prisons are like, Huanghua Prison will definitely have no problems and can withstand any test.
If anyone has a problem, you don’t need to notify me. You should arrest him immediately. I, Huang Haihua, can tolerate everything except moths."
Huang Haihua's vowing tone and determination to fight corruption to the end made Wang Xu couldn't help but think of himself when he put on a show in front of the news media some time ago.
Well, they were all so majestic, upright, and tall, which is really missed.
