Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 2325 You write me an IOU

I!Fang Jun!

Hurry up and give the money!

……

Gao Xing's eyes were wide open, and it was difficult to accept the situation in front of him for a while...

You are the Secretary of the Ministry of War!
Still Prince Shaobao!

How can a proper court boss and an important minister of the empire still barge into the government office of the Ministry of Civil Affairs with no image like a street ruffian, talking about the talk of the market and the spirit of the land, do you still have to behave?
The whole Tang Dynasty of the Ministry of Civil Affairs was silent, and the officials who came in and out stopped at this moment, looking at the domineering Fang Jun standing in the hall...

We Gao Shilang owed money to others, and were chased into the Yamen by debt collectors?

Gao Xing held his breath in his chest, gritted his teeth, and said word by word: "Fang Er, others may be afraid of you three points, but I, Gao, will never be afraid of you! This place is the lobby of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the center of the empire, and a place of great wealth and taxation. , you are acting like a rascal in the market, who gave you the courage? Also, tell me clearly, when and where did I owe you money?"

It's just a dog!
He is the grand son of Shen Guogong, the son-in-law of the court, and the left servant of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. How glorious is he?Although the Gao family in Bohai is not comparable to those families that have lasted for thousands of years, they are also the top family members today. Even if you, Fang Jun, are richer, I would have to borrow money from you and be chased by you to this point?
Simply ridiculous!
It was clearly here to make trouble.

Fang Jun wasn't angry either, and didn't pay attention to Gao's ruthlessness at all, and said loudly, "The Political Affairs Hall approved the Ministry of War to use 100 million yuan to expand the Foundry Bureau. The funds from the Ministry are delayed? Not only that, but the officials from the Ministry of War have come to urge the funds several times, and you, Gao Shilang, have repeatedly prevaricated, what is the intention?"

As soon as this remark came out, all the civil affairs officials in the lobby breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as it is official business, there will be no troubles. They are all children of aristocratic families. Maybe they can fight for each other's embarrassment, but who can fight for public affairs and cause trouble?

Gao Xing also heaved a sigh of relief.

Looking at Fang Jun's aggressive posture, he almost thought that maybe he really owed Fang Jun the money and forgot to pay it back...

Since it is an official business, he has plenty of ways to delay it.

"It turns out that Fang Shaobao was talking about this matter... To be honest, it's not because the officials are unwilling to allocate funds immediately, but because the Ministry of Civil Affairs has too many accounts squeezed out. The taxes sent by Jiangnan this season have just arrived, and it is necessary A lot of manpower is needed to take inventory, and the warehouse cannot be sorted out for a while. After a while, when the accounts of the Ministry of Civil Affairs are sorted out, the funds will be sent immediately. I hope the housekeeper will be safe and don't be impatient, and we must be more considerate of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Difficulty."

Gao Xun held back his anger, put on a smiling face, and spoke in an official tone.

Fang Jun sneered, and said, "The expansion of the Foundry Bureau is related to the refitting of the Liaodong army and horses. If this delays His Majesty's plan for the Eastern Expedition, who will bear the responsibility?"

Gao Xing put his face down again, and said displeasedly: "Fang Shaobao, I have already given you face. If you yell and force your way into the Ministry of Civil Affairs, I don't care about you, but you are so aggressive. Even putting the success or failure of the Eastern Expedition on the head of our Ministry of Civil Affairs, isn't that unreasonable?"

Many officials from the Ministry of Civil Affairs were present in the lobby, and they immediately became agitated when they heard the words.

"Gao Shilang is right. Liaodong soldiers and horses are changing their outfits. That's a matter for your military department. You can't just throw the responsibility on us because the funding is a few days late, right?"

"Our Ministry of Civil Affairs has some procedures. I don't know how many places are waiting for the allocation of funds from the Ministry of Civil Affairs. There must be a first-come-first-served basis."

……

The Eastern Expedition is the top priority of the imperial court right now, His Majesty is thinking about it, if something goes wrong, who can bear the blame?

Gao's fulfillment of this statement is tantamount to exposing Fang Jun's threat, pointing out that this cauldron will be held on the head of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, which not only puts pressure on the officials of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, but also arouses the hatred of the same enemy.

Don't wait for such a bully!

Listening to the turmoil of the crowd, Gao Xingli raised the corners of his mouth slightly. If you let your tongue bloom like a lotus flower, you can't believe that you can push the entire Ministry of Civil Affairs into a position that is crucial to the victory or defeat of the Eastern Expedition. I agree, and all the officials of the Ministry of Civil Affairs will not agree!
Who can afford it?

Standing behind Fang Jun, Cui Dunli watched the officials of the Ministry of Civil Affairs look like they wanted to eat people, sweating on their foreheads, and secretly scolded Fang Jun for being reckless.

You want to shift the responsibility to the Ministry of Civil Affairs from the very beginning, who did it?

The Eastern Expedition is a national policy, and it is the most critical step for His Majesty Li Er to achieve "one emperor through the ages". If something goes wrong, even if the person in charge dies a hundred times, it will not be enough!
You are simply pushing the entire Ministry of Civil Affairs into a pit, and it will be strange not to cause public anger...

Fang Jun didn't take it seriously, looked around with a smile, then looked at Gao Xing, and asked: "So, Gao Shilang doesn't plan to allocate funds?"

Gao Xing sneered and said, "It's not that the funds are not allocated, but the Ministry of Civil Affairs is also very embarrassed, and it's just a few days' delay."

Fang Jun asked: "How long is the delay? How many days?"

Gao Xing spread his hands together, and raised his mouth: "Who can say for sure? The Ministry of Civil Affairs calculates the world's taxes, and the amount of calculation is so huge that you can't understand it. It may be one or two days, or three or four days. No one can tell." No."

Cui Dunli quickly clung to Fang Jun's ear, and said in a low voice: "Fang Concubine, this accounting matter is indeed labor-intensive and full of situations. If he drags on like this, even if the lawsuit comes to His Majesty, it will be fine."

Fang Jun nodded slightly, then ignored Cui Dunli, but said to Gao Xingxing: "Since this is the case, then I am also considerate of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and I am doing my best for the empire. If I am aggressive, it is not appropriate."

The corners of Gao Xing's mouth are raised higher...

However, Fang Jun went on to say: "However, the Ministry of Civil Affairs has difficulties in the Ministry of Civil Affairs, but the Ministry of War also has difficulties in the Ministry of War. Although everyone has different duties, they serve His Majesty together. They should be considerate and help each other. In this way, Gao Shilang agrees. no?"

Gao Xingxing said with emotion: "What Fang Shaobao said is true, but the Ministry of Civil Affairs has complicated calculations, and it is really powerless. Please ask the Ministry of War to postpone it for a few days."

Heh heh, I'm going to make a decision because it takes a long time to calculate it, so I just procrastinate like this, so what if you say it's breaking the sky?
It's reasonable, even if His Majesty came down, he couldn't say anything.

As for whether your Ministry of War has delayed the Liaodong army and horse refit... none of my business?
Fang Jun nodded, seeming to agree with Gao's words, and then slowly said: "In this case, I will not force the Ministry of Civil Affairs to allocate funds now. However, Minister Gao, the Political Affairs Hall allowed the Ministry of Civil Affairs to allocate 100 million yuan to the Ministry of War to expand the casting Bureau, you have to admit this, right?"

Gao Xing thought for a while, and felt that there was no trap. He nodded and said, "Naturally, I admit that this is an order written by the ministers of the Political Affairs Hall, and it is even more related to the refitting of the Liaodong army and horses. How can the Ministry of Civil Affairs not admit it? It's just that it's difficult..."

Fang Jun waved his hand and interrupted Gao Xingxing's words: "If the difficulty is not difficult, let's forget about it. Who is not a little bit difficult after serving as an official? He talks about difficulties all day long, but doesn't think about how to solve them. It’s not an exaggeration to say that a corpse is a vegetarian meal, but it’s even harder to say, if you can’t do it, don’t do it, wouldn’t it be better to abdicate as soon as possible? They are so emphatic about difficulties, who will do the real work?”

Gao Xing's face turned blue, and he said angrily: "Whether I am competent or not is assessed by the Ministry of Officials and weighed by Your Majesty, and it's not your turn to point fingers!"

"All right, all right, I really can't control you..."

Fang Jun became a little impatient, and stood in the hall with his hands behind his back, and said: "Since Gao Shilang admitted that the money was approved by the Political Affairs Hall to be allocated to the Ministry of War, and now because of the problems of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the allocation of funds has been delayed. , then please ask Gao Shilang to issue an IOU to the officer."

There was a sudden silence in the hall.

Even Cui Dunli has a big mouth...

IOU? !

For thousands of years, I have never heard of such a thing as an IOU between a yamen and a yamen. They are all imperial yamen. Is this necessary?
Gao Xing flatly refused: "There has never been such a precedent, and it is absolutely impossible."

IOUs?
how can that be!

If the Ministry of War made any mistakes in changing the costumes in the future, Fang Jun came out with this IOU, saying that it was because the Ministry of Civil Affairs did not allocate funds in time, which caused the delay in the expansion of the Foundry Bureau and affected the costume change. Is the responsibility of the Ministry of War a scapegoat?
Just wishful thinking!
Fang Jun chuckled, looked at the officials of the Ministry of Civil Affairs on the left and right, and said: "Come on, you still blamed me just now, right? Now I and you are arguing that your Ministry of Civil Affairs does not allocate funds, but the expansion of the Ministry of War does. It can't be postponed for half a day, otherwise no one can afford this responsibility, right?"

The officials thought for a while and nodded.

The expansion of the Ministry of War is related to the refitting of the Liaodong army and horses. If they hate it, the responsibility for this is the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of War cannot afford to take the blame.

Fang Jun said again: "So, the expansion of the Ministry of War must continue, but there is no money, what should I do?"

Officials of the Ministry of Civil Affairs are a little confused, how do we know what to do?
