Chapter nine hundred and fiftieth chapters seized dirty silver
Chen Lifu's previous efforts to reorganize the tax inspection teams in Jiangbei Province and introduce veterans were also coordinated by the military to a certain extent.
Of course, this is also a helpless move by the military. If there were other options, the military would not sit back and watch the tax inspection team expand and become a real armed force.
It's just that the current Tang Dynasty has clearly stipulated that if you want to eat in the public family, even the lowest rank, Ninth Grade, has academic requirements.
Either graduate from a government-run middle school, graduate from an officially recognized private middle school, or graduate from an official vocational school, such as patrol school, etc. It doesn’t matter if you haven’t attended any of these schools. You can only be admitted as a scholar and have a scholar.
If you have the above-mentioned honors to prove your abilities, then that’s fine too.
Of course, these are only limited to high-level positions. Even if it is a ninth-grade position, it is only a high-level position.
There are also some non-level positions, but they are all horsemen, coachmen, watchmen and the like. You veterans can come if you don't mind!
But it is definitely not possible to let a veteran do these things. The status of soldiers of the Tang Dynasty is still very high these days. When the Recruitment Department of the Army Ministry recruits new soldiers in the local area, the conditions are very harsh.
Because once you join the army, your salary will be very generous.
Nowadays, joining the army has become the most desirable career for poor people in many places, especially in rural areas. Although the risks are relatively high, the rewards are greater.
Therefore, arranging retirement employment for these veterans cannot be done casually.
However, the many stringent local requirements now make the senior military generals quite annoyed, but it is useless to be annoyed. The problem of retired employment of soldiers still needs to be solved, so they are also prepared with both hands.
First, large-scale literacy classes are launched in the military, and then special internal training schools are opened to allow soldiers to pass the military's internal middle school examination before retiring. After passing, employment arrangements after retirement will be simple, and they will be given directly to the staff without fear.
They don't want people, and if they dare to refuse them, they dare to complain directly to the Holy Emperor.
Another point is to find solutions in a short time. For example, the tax inspection team is an emergency solution. Chen Lifu said that there are no requirements. It doesn’t matter if you are illiterate. Everything can be arranged.
Rectifying the tax inspection team and introducing veterans is just one of the many things Chen Lifu has done in the past six months. This matter has a relatively large impact within the tax department, but to be honest, it has little impact on the outside world.
What really had the greatest impact was that he purged many local gentry and businessmen and impeached many local tax officials.
These things will naturally make countless people hate Chen Lifu. After the nickname Chen Rentu was called, it has never been taken off. Jiangbei Province and the entire Zhili Fourth Province also cursed and resented Chen Rentu.
There are many Lifus, but does he care?
not give a damn about!
Chen Lifu asked himself that he had a clear conscience in what he did. What he wanted was to support the Holy Lord, and what he wanted was to drive out the many rebellious officials and traitors in the court, including Qian Zuoli, who had always admired him!
Of course, he has not said this to anyone so far, not even his wife, not even his former teachers and classmates. He himself knows that if this idea is exposed to the outside world,
If you know it, it will cause big trouble. Even being thrown into jail is a minor offense, and it may even lead to the death of your family.
Isn't that right? Qian Zuili attaches great importance to you and trains you, but you are determined to bring him down. Not to mention, you, Chen Lifu, even plan to kill other important ministers in the court. In this case, what can I do?
I will let you continue to develop, and I will definitely step on you first when I get the opportunity.
One day, when Chen Lifu becomes the Minister of Taxation and the Minister on Duty in the Royal Study Room, he will completely abolish many of the current chaos and tyranny, restore order to the world, and create a peaceful and prosperous age!
And before that, it doesn’t matter if you do something against your will!
If he cannot bear the humiliation and bear the burden, how can he realize his ideals and ambitions!
But maybe these people he didn't care about finally reported him?
Chen Lifu began to filter the names of individuals in his mind. These were all people who might report or frame him.
But he just gave up after thinking about it for a moment, because he had offended too many people, and if he wanted to bring more misfortune to him, he could not do it if he really had to filter them all.
Many of the things he did harmed the interests of a large number of people. Some people did not know him at all, but they also wanted him to die.
Well, there are many people who want him dead and many who want to impeach him, but he has not been in a stable position in the past two years.
This time, although there are some twists and turns, he thinks he will get through the difficulties smoothly!
If his body is upright, he will not be afraid of his shadow. Chen Lifu has never taken bribes, so he will not be afraid of others investigating him!
It's a pity that Chen Lifu has been living in the guest house of the Inspectorate for six days now, and is under house arrest, cut off from the outside world. He doesn't even know that almost at the same time.
Three censors from the Chengtian Prefecture Inspectorate took a search warrant and brought more than 20 patrol officers to Chen's house and began to search!
Based on reports and recent investigations, they learned that the Chen family hid a large amount of stolen money, and it was rumored that the cellar was filled with money. Moreover, they also found out from the Royal Bank that Chen Lifu's personal account had a large amount of funds going in and out all year round.
All this made the censors who led the investigation think that there must be something wrong with Chen Lifu. Otherwise, how could there be so many funds in and out of this account!
Also, the Chen family must be hiding the money that Chen Lifu has taken in bribes and withheld taxes in the past two years!
What they have to do is to find the money. Once they find the money, they can immediately apply for a thorough investigation, expand the scope of the investigation, and arrest Chen Lifu at the same time.
The censor broke into the Chen family with more than 20 patrol policemen, frightening everyone in the Chen family. Today, the Chen family is withering away. He is the only one, Chen Lifu, and although there are several descendants in the family to help with the family business
, but in the end, most of them are female dependents.
They simply could not stop the confident censor of the Chengtian Prefecture. When they opened the door of the Chen family cellar, everyone's eyes sparkled when they saw the countless gold and silver piled inside.
The patrol officers were naturally shocked because they saw so much gold and silver.
And the two censors who led the team had already seen that promotion and wealth were beckoning to them!
With so much gold and silver placed here, it is very likely that these are the taxes Chen Lifu withheld in the past two years, because the report clues said that the taxes Chen Lifu withheld was at least more than 100,000 silver, and the current gold and silver ratio here is
More was expected.
This Chen Lifu is more courageous than they imagined. The total gold and silver here is at least more than 300,000 taels of silver. Damn, he withheld so much tax. If he is really found guilty, he will definitely confiscate his family and exterminate his family.
great sin!
"Seal everything here!" The censor who led the team waved his hand and asked his patrol policemen to start affixing seals. These are dirty money, evidence that they have been promoted and made rich.
Of course, during the seizure, it was inevitable that the patrol police would quietly take away one or two gold bars, silver bars, etc., and these two censors would treat them as invisible.
With so much gold and silver placed here, they themselves are jealous.
But reason still controls them. If the money is really stolen money, it must belong to the state treasury. If they dare to take it privately, the people in the tax department will definitely go crazy. In the end, they themselves will definitely be like Chen Lifu
’s footsteps.
In the Tang Dynasty, the money belonging to the treasury was absolutely out of reach!
Why did Chen Lifu's case attract so much attention? The Chengtian Prefecture Inspectorate took action regardless of the impact. It even went as far as the Central Inspectorate and asked Shi Wuyan to report to Song Tieshu in person. Finally, Shi Wuyan personally ordered: Investigate,
Conduct investigations strictly in accordance with supervision regulations!
After Shi Wuyan gave the order, the censor and the patrolmen broke into the cellar of the Chen family. Otherwise, the two censors who led the team would not have had the guts to lead the patrolmen privately.
Breaking into the private residence of Chen Lifu, who is currently the deputy director of the Inspection Division of the Ministry of Taxation and can be said to be the fifth-rank official with the highest political status in the Tang Dynasty and a bright future.
The reason why Chen Lifu's case attracted so much attention is because others reported that he had withheld taxes!
Your corruption and bribery are just ordinary crimes. If you dare to withhold taxes, you will directly use money from the national treasury, which will use the funds of all departments. You will have trouble with many departments waiting for money to be spent, and you will have trouble with the military.
If you have trouble with His Majesty, even if you are not charged with "treason", it will be difficult to calm down the anger of many departments and His Majesty!
The censor who led the team could be entrusted with an important task in this kind of case. He was naturally a relatively important middle-level censor within the Inspectorate, at least within the Chengtian Prefecture Inspectorate.
Although the name of this censor is unknown in the entire officialdom, this person is a close subordinate of Gong Wenbao, the director of the Chengtian Prefecture Inspectorate. He is also the censor of the most important department of the Chengtian Prefecture Inspectorate: the Anti-Corruption Department.
Moreover, he is also the deputy director of the Anti-Corruption Department. In terms of fifth-grade rank, he is actually on the same level as Chen Lifu. Of course, the political status of the two is completely incomparable.
Originally, it would be more appropriate for this kind of case to have the director of the Chengtian Anti-Corruption Department directly lead the team. However, the director of the Chengtian Anti-Corruption Department is not the same person as Gong Wenbao, and he usually does not deal with it very much. This kind of sensitivity is extremely sensitive.
Gong Wenbao would naturally not let him lead the team in this case.
This case requires caution!
Except for his close confidants, Gong Wenbao is worried about others!
