    Kuaiji County, Shanyin County.

    This is the seat of Kuaiji County.

    The current prefect of Kuaiji County is named Zuo Yuneng. He is over forty years old and strong.  At Zuo Yuneng's age, he was able to govern a county and was in his right year.

    Zuo Yuneng himself was not from Kuaiji County, but from Danyang County. He served as county magistrate in Danyang County. Because of his good political performance, there was a vacancy in Kuaiji County, so he was transferred from Danyang County to serve.

    After taking office, Zuo Yuneng quickly investigated and punished a group of officials, and he had quite a few political achievements among the officials.

    In the prefect¡¯s mansion at this moment.

    Zuo Yuneng was sitting in the study, looking through the account books.  Zuo Yuneng himself was quite obese, short in stature, with a big face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, looking wide and fat.

    The accounts he was looking through now were Zuo Yuneng's own accounts, not Kuaiji County's treasury accounts.  But after Zuo Yuneng looked through it, he frowned, and there was a hint of displeasure on his face.

    "Here comes someone!"

    Zuo Yu can give an order.

    The door of the room was pushed open with a creak, and an attendant bowed and entered.

    The attendant said: "My lord!"

    Zuo Yuneng ordered: "Go and notify Chief Ling to come. I have something to ask."

    "yes!"

    The attendant turned around to inform.

    Not long after, a thin-looking middle-aged man stepped in.  The middle-aged man had a solemn expression on his face, bowed and saluted: "I pay my respects to you, Your Excellency."

    Zuo Yuneng said: "Mr. Ling, sit down!"

    "Thank you, sir!"

    Ling Ran sat down directly. He was Zuo Yuneng's chief clerk and Zuo Yuneng's adviser, and he gave advice to Zuo Yuneng.  Even in most matters, Ling Ran makes the decision for Zuo Yuneng.

    Ling Ran sat down and asked, "Your Excellency, please inform me. Is there anything you can do?"

    Zuo Yuneng picked up the account book in his hand, threw it directly in front of Ling Ran, and said in a deep voice: "Here, take a look. The money handed over by Zhang'an County this month is only five thousand taels of silver."

    "As usual, it's at least 20,000 taels of silver. How can you do it if you lose so much money all of a sudden?"

    "You can arrange to have someone send a letter to Zeng Zigong, the magistrate of Zhang'an County, asking him to make up for the vacancy of fifteen thousand taels of silver next month. If the money is missing, I will bring him to justice."

    Zuo Yuneng¡¯s tone was extremely sharp.

    This gesture suggests that once Zeng Zigong cannot pay, he will withdraw from Zuo Yuneng.

    "yes!"

    Ling Ran answered respectfully.

    Zuo Yuneng said: "Tell Zeng Zigong, it's understandable that he has difficulties. But who doesn't have difficulties? He needs money, but I don't need money? I have to take care of myself, up and down, because money is needed everywhere."

    "yes!"

    Ling Ran answered again.

    He knew Zuo Yuneng¡¯s character, and when it came to money, there was no doubt or refutation.  Everything else is easy to talk about, but when it comes to money, it's not easy to handle.

    Zuo Yuneng waved his hand and said: "Go down, hurry up and hurry up."

    "yes!"

    Ling Ran said again.

    Zuo Yuneng waved his hand, Ling Ran bowed, turned and left.  At this time, Zuo Yuneng picked up the brush out of boredom and prepared to draw.

    Painting is one of his hobbies, and through this, he can also make money.

    This is Zuo Yuneng¡¯s favorite.

    When Zuo Yu was able to paint, there was a knock on the door outside, and Ling Ran's voice came in: "Sir, I have something important to ask for in my humble position."

    "Come in!"

    Zuo Yu can give an order.

    Ling Ran pushed the door open and entered, with a more serious look on his face. He bowed and said, "Sir."

    Zuo Yuneng said: "What's the matter?"

    Ling Ran replied: "Replying to your lord, I have just received news that King Qi has brought people to Kuaiji County. Preliminary estimates indicate that King Qi is most likely going to Zhang'an County. Because King Qi came this time for Yan Chixing's death.  Injured, it is a matter of provocation by the Japanese."

    Zuo Yuneng¡¯s expression suddenly changed drastically.

    He slapped his hand on the desk and said angrily: "These damn Japanese have been told over and over again that they are only allowed to do a small part of the looting, but they will spend most of their time on overseas islands and are not allowed to land."

    "They were lucky. Not only did they rush into Zhang'an County to plunder, they also deliberately laid an ambush and waited for Yan Chixing to go encircle and suppress him. Then they killed Yan Chixing by surprise and injured him."

      "Such a result is tantamount to a disgrace to King Qi. How can King Qi not be angry?"

    "A bunch of rubbish, who succeed more than they succeed and fail more than they succeed."

    Zuo Yuneng said coldly: "I always think of eating a big fat man in one bite. How is it possible? You have to eat the food one bite at a time. Now they have angered the King of Qi. Let's see how they deal with each other."

    Ling Ran sighed: "The Japanese have ideas because they want to get more benefits. Sir, now that King Qi is here, we need to be prepared. Otherwise, if nothing is arranged, we will easily fall into trouble.  "

    Zuo Yuneng said: "Mr. Ling, what do you think we should do?"

    Ling Ran replied: "I think the best way for us now is to order Zeng Zigong of Zhang'an County to control his mouth and the people below him. Second, regarding the money that needs to be supplemented this month  , exempt him for the time being. After all, Wang Qi is here, and it¡¯s not easy for him to raise money."

    Zuo Yuneng thought for a while and said: "Okay, just follow your idea."

    Ling Ran said: "I'll make arrangements for my humble position right now."

    Zuo Yuneng nodded, Ling Ran turned around and walked out.  Just when Ling Ran walked to the door, Zuo Yuneng suddenly said: "Sir, wait a minute."

    Ling Ran stopped, turned around and said, "Do you have any other instructions, sir?"

    Zuo Yuneng looked serious and asked: "I still feel that it is inappropriate. Regarding the arrival of King Qi in Zhang'an County, if there is something wrong, what should we do then?"

    Ling Ran said confidently: "Sir, there can be no mistakes. The money we collect from each county is collected in the name of the national treasury. This money is all accounted for and recorded in a separate account book."

    "Once it is really verified, it is for King Qi to verify it. Anyway, it is you who has the final say on when to hand over this money. Therefore, if it is really important to investigate, first take out the money in the warehouse and deal with it.  .¡±

    "As long as you pass this level, there will naturally be no problems."

    Ling Ran said: "King Qi is here to investigate Yan Chixing's case and deal with the Japanese. For the time being, it has nothing to do with us. As long as Zeng Zigong keeps his mouth tight, everything will be fine."

    Zuo Yuneng rolled his eyes, with a smile on his face, and said, "You are right."

    Ling Ran said: "In short, let's make more preparations. For the local level, we still need more cooperation from people from the Intelligence Bureau and the Supervision Department. In short, Wang Qi's arrival at the local level depends entirely on these eyes and ears. If these people are on our side,  On the other hand, everything is fine."

    Zuo Yuneng¡¯s heart felt completely at ease. He thought Ling Ran¡¯s words made sense.  What's more, now that things have happened, he has no way out, he just needs to act according to Ling Ran's suggestion.

    Ling Ran bowed and said, "Sir, is there anything else?"

    Zuo Yuneng said: "No more!"

    Ling Ran said: "Since there is nothing wrong, I will go and inform you now. Time is tight, so I must inform Zeng Zigong as soon as possible so that he can be fully prepared and not be caught off guard."

    Zuo Yuneng nodded, Ling Ran turned around and left.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
