Chapter 3594 One Level Suppresses the Other

The treasury envoy only keeps accounts and does not interfere with the flow of resources in the treasury. The use of the treasury funds is mainly divided into two parts. One is to pay taxes to the Heavenly King's Palace and the Evil Court, and the other is to maintain the daily expenses of the Wuji Palace.

The daily expenses are mainly the salary payment of the staff in the palace, plus the support of the guards. It is a big deal and the pressure is not small. Before coming here, Hu Sifeng had learned that Wuji Palace had a very good job.

The annual turnover of the treasury is definitely more than 100,000. If it is properly operated, it should not be a problem if five or six thousand Xuanhuangjing falls every year. Of course, with the right strategy, tens of thousands is not difficult.

Originally, tens of thousands of congratulatory gifts had been collected, and he was in a good mood, thinking of getting another sum from the treasury to repay part of the bad debts from Yiwen Pavilion. Unexpectedly, when the treasury was opened, there were only 13,000 left.

As far as he knew, the taxes that should be paid to the Heavenly King's Mansion and the Evil Court this year have not yet been paid.

The total of these two taxes is 40,000, not to mention the daily expenses. Now there are only 13,000 Xuanhuangjing left in the treasury, which is simply digging a huge hole.

He, Mr. Hu, worked hard to get the position of the master of the palace. He wanted to make a fortune, not to take the blame for anyone.

At that time, when he saw the state of the treasury, he immediately became angry. He shouted and asked the treasury envoy where the resources of the treasury had gone, and claimed that he would never accept such a treasury.

Wang Tingzan, the treasurer's envoy, said calmly, "The master of the palace has even accepted the seal. Now you are saying this, aren't you afraid of making people laugh?"

Hu Sifeng was used to being arrogant. He never thought that there was someone more arrogant than him in the world. Moreover, this arrogant person was just a minor official. Wang Tingzan's words made him so angry that he almost vomited blood. If Uncle Long hadn't been there, he might have He chopped Wang Tingzan alive.

But no matter how angry you are, you can't change it. The fact that you fell into the trap, the palace master accepted the letter, and this man sat down. Now it is meaningless to talk about the shortcomings of the treasury handover.

He could guess with his toes that it must be Wang Tingzan, the slippery official, who hollowed out the Wuji Palace's treasury, leaving him with a mess. As for who was behind these people, he didn't bother to go into detail.

Hu Sifeng planned to suffer this embarrassing loss, but he did not want to suffer too big a loss. He tried his best to calmly tell Wang Tingzan that he hoped Wang Tingzan could return 20,000 yuan, and he accepted the rest of the accounts. Unexpectedly, Wang Tingzan rolled his eyes, as if looking at a dead person, and left without saying a word.

Today, an official letter from the Emperor's Palace to pay the royal tax was sent to the Wuji Palace. It actually increased by 20% on last year's tax. Even the full payment of the 13,000 from the Treasury was far from enough. Hu Sifeng finally broke out and smashed tea cups in the hall.

It cost him the boss's price to seize the position of the leader of Wuji Hall. He originally thought that after taking the position, he could quickly regain his health. Unexpectedly, when he came up, he was hit in the head by the skaters from the Emperor's Palace.

After losing his temper for a long time, but still unable to calm down his anger, Hu Sifeng said angrily, "Come here, call Suijie." The waiter then retreated with his neck shrunken.

Uncle Long said, "What's the use of this stall? It's better to calm it down."

Hu Sifeng said coldly, "Uncle Long, it's already a puddle of muddy water. Let's just mix it up a little bit. Su Xunjun said, Sui is the one who is the most troublesome. This time, I will bite him and won't let him go. This mess is messed up." Leave everything to him."

Uncle Long did not approve of Hu Sifeng's operation. He felt that he had just arrived and should be steady. He could not listen to who Suijie was. He had to see what Suijie would do.

But at the moment, Hu Sifeng was obviously angry. He knew that it would be useless to persuade him, so he simply shut up.

When Xu Yi arrived, Hu Sifeng shouted, "Suijie, how did you become the deputy palace master? The treasury is so deeply in deficit, what do you have to say?"

On the way here, Xu Yi was still thinking about the reason why Hu Sifeng told him. Now that he understood it, he felt secretly happy in his heart.

He was still afraid that there would be no trouble, everything was as he expected, Jin Mang suddenly died, and the people of the Heavenly King's Palace did not let go of the fat man in Wuji Palace. Because of this speculation, after he was promoted to the deputy head of Wuji Hall, he never asked about the treasury, nor did he go to the treasury envoy to ask for tokens.

The thunder exploded today, and he couldn't be more satisfied. If Hu Sifeng is allowed to live too peacefully, this person is the master of the Zhengyin Palace and is naturally endowed with great righteousness. The longer time goes by, the easier it will be for the heroes to return to their hearts. Now, with such a big mess happening, Wuji Hall immediately became a hot pot, which was exactly what he wanted.

"To report to the Palace Master, I really don't know about this matter. Before the Palace Master came, I was temporarily in charge of the affairs of Wuji Palace. The superiors refused to give me the seal of the Palace Master. I have no right to open the treasury. I have no right to do so. Know what's going on inside." Without getting angry for no reason, Xu Yi pushed Tai Chi cleanly.

Hu Sifeng said coldly, "I trust you, but the problem now is that the tax collection from above is tight, and there is still a shortfall of nearly 50,000 yuan. You can find a way to make up for it. You bear the heavy responsibility of deputy palace master, don't think about it. If you act as a mascot on the side, I will leave this matter to you. If it doesn’t work, you can go to King Xia and explain it yourself.”

What good idea could he have? He just wanted to put the blame on Xu Yi.

Xu Yi cursed secretly in his heart and looked panicked on his face, "What do you mean, Palace Master? How can I, the Deputy Palace Master, bear such a heavy responsibility? Palace Master, please think again."

Hu Sifeng waved his hand and said, "I have thought twice. It is most appropriate to leave this matter to you. I still say that if it can't be done, I will not be the palace master, so you should not be the deputy palace master. "

Xu Yi tried hard to persuade to no avail, "In this case, I just accept the order, but after all, there are tens of thousands of Xuan Huang Jing. If they are pressed down at once, it will definitely cause turmoil. At that time, it will cause a backlash below. I don't know what the palace master will say."

Hu Sifeng said coldly, "I will not do something that requires the horse to run and not eat grass. You can do it yourself. As long as you succeed, the sky will not fall."

Xu Yi said, "I also asked the palace master to issue an official letter, so that my subordinates can be justified. Of course, in the official letter, the palace master's promise that I will not be blamed if something goes wrong must be reflected. Otherwise, I would rather the palace master punish me now." , and I am absolutely not willing to accept this bad attitude by not trying to please both sides."

Uncle Long conveyed his thoughts and said, "Sir, this beast is indeed cunning. Don't trust it easily. Be careful of deceit."

Hu Sifeng conveyed his thoughts and said, "It doesn't matter whether he is a fraud or not. He is in my hands. I can crush him to death at any time. Let him do things for me first, and I will talk about the rest later."

He quickly signed the official letter and threw it to Xu Yi. Xu Yi took it and inspected it.

Hu Sifeng said coldly, "I'll give you everything you want. If things don't work out, come and see me."

Xu Yi responded in a deep voice, said goodbye and left.

Huangmei conveyed his thoughts and said, "I advise you to take leave for now. Without you, Wuji Palace would be like a hot pot of hot oil. You are still stirring in it, and it has become a mountain of flames. If you don't jump up and down, I guess the surname It’s not easy for Hu to be the master of the palace. Isn’t it good to sit on the sidelines and wait for his defeat? What should I do to get involved?”
