Valley Emperor
Vol 2 Chapter 1268: Hantong's illustrious name
Li Xuan knew that there were a lot of corrupt officials in the many officials of the Tang Empire.
Even though the Datang Empire was very strict in rectifying officials, and the supervision was very strong, the corrupt officials have never been eradicated since ancient times, and it is also not acceptable in the Datang Dynasty.
So many times, Li Xuan is also in the attitude of turning a blind eye. As long as the officials below do not go too far, he will not be particularly angry about it. Otherwise, he will be angry every day!
tired!
Therefore, as long as the Inspectorate continues to crack down, Li Xuan will not have much opinion.
However, usually corruption and exploiting power for personal gain are fine. At such a critical moment, there are still people who dare to take advantage of the disaster relief funds!
This kind of thing, Li Xuan can't stand it!
This disaster relief fund is related to the livelihood of tens of millions of people. If there is no disaster relief fund, I don’t know how many people will starve to death, and 100% will become refugees at that time, thereby shaking the foundation of the Tang Dynasty’s rule.
How could Li Xuan tolerate such a thing?
Absolutely intolerable!
Li Xuan carefully looked at the report. The report said only about one place in Taoyuan County. It said that there were problems in the five resettlement sites under Taoyuan County, and the problems were similar. That is, the victims did not get Farm tools, food they deserve.
Specifically, a large number of people did not get the wages they deserved when they paid for work, and they paid less or not at all.
The disaster relief of the Tang Dynasty began to use work-for-relief very early. Unless it is a special situation, generally, it will not directly distribute food and other materials to the disaster victims for a long time, but provide them with job opportunities within their ability, and let them work through work. Get wages, and then use the wages in exchange for food and other materials.
However, in Taoyuan County’s food-for-work program, many victims were owed wages that they should have received, and officials in some places even told the vast number of victims that their labor was unpaid and had no wages in the name of conscription.
But in fact, the official finances allocate funds for each project, and the workers' salaries are given priority.
After all, the purpose of cash-for-work is not to build any project, it is just incidental, but to allow the victims to have a job and earn money to support their families.
Sometimes there are even seemingly absurd projects. For example, the scheduled ditches can be dug one meter deep and one meter wide, but later in the actual construction, they will often be dug two meters deep and three or four meters wide. why? In fact, it is to increase the amount of work, so that cash-for-work can cover more labor and extend the time for a longer period of time.
Relief for work is actually an important means for the Tang Dynasty to engage in water conservancy facilities and various infrastructure projects in recent years. Even in some places where there is no disaster, the government will hire people in the slack season in the name of food for work. Local youths dig canals to build roads.
However, in Taoyuan County, the cash-for-work program has become no pay or less pay. How can you let the victims survive?
Live!
How to live? Alive starvation?
impossible!
Even the cowardly peasants will explode with astonishing combat effectiveness in the face of starvation, and a few courageous and ambitious people can turn into a rebellion as soon as they instigate them.
Check, must be strictly investigated!
Li Xuan directly gave Hantong instructions to conduct a strict investigation, not only in Taoyuan County, but also in other prefectures and counties. Once verified, the evidence will be directly handed over to the local inspectorate.
Han Tong, who received Li Xuan's instructions, quickly took action.
As a spy organization, Hantong's methods of investigating cases are much richer than that of the patrol police, and there are not too many limitations. Soon, the situation in Taoyuan County was investigated.
During the investigation process, Hantong also discovered a very interesting situation, that is, the food-for-work project in Taoyuan County was not organized by the government itself or by an enterprise affiliated with local finance.
Instead, they were entrusted to several private enterprises!
This is unusual. In the past, the projects of cash-for-work were some water conservancy and various infrastructure projects. Generally speaking, it was either directly organized by the government to recruit people to build it, or it was entrusted to the buildings belonging to the local finance. Enterprise recruiting staff to build.
But it is rarely handed over to private enterprises.
These cash-for-work infrastructure projects in Taoyuan County were all handed over to private enterprises, who recruited people to build them.
And it is these private enterprises that deduct wages.
When the people in the inspectorate directly asked these companies to pay wages, they went bankrupt directly, and a large amount of project funds had already been transferred out through various commercial cooperation.
In this way, when we really want to investigate, we can only arrest the management who were obviously pushed out as scapegoats.
At this time, even if they knew that the money was transferred out, but they were also transferred out through normal business activities, there was no way to recover the money~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and even the follow-up could not be traced.
But this involves hundreds of thousands of taels of money. The Inspectorate can't do anything, and it doesn't mean that Han Tong can't do anything either.
Hantong continued to investigate, and finally found out that these funds flowed into the stock market through layer-by-layer transactions, bank transfers, but the stocks purchased with these funds had now become junk stocks.
In other words, the money has gone to waste!
But it doesn't matter. Hantong continued to investigate and finally found out that a securities company made huge profits through related junk stock transactions.
There is nothing wrong with the securities company itself. The key funds for operating this stock belong to a fund under the securities company, and the main investor of this fund belongs to the Chen family, a large gentry in southern Anhui. .
And unfortunately, Chen Yibao, the director of the Huai'an House Public Works Department, is a child of the Chen family!
Although from Datang's existing law, Chen Yibao has nothing to do with the above series of transactions.
But will this stumped Hantong?
joke!
On the night when the truth was found out, Han Tong arrested Chen Yibao!
It wasn't house arrest or any questioning, but people were arrested directly, and they were taken away directly from the yamen. The scene at that time was quite scary.
Ordinary people may not know the reputation of Hantong Eagle Dog, because Hantong's business is mainly to monitor civil unrest, incidentally counter espionage, and arrest corrupt officials. This is not their business scope. The reason why they arrested Chen Yibao is not because of his corruption. , but because he dared to start with the disaster relief funds, hemp, this is something that will cause major turmoil.
He is so daring, he can't stand Han Tong's illustrious reputation if he doesn't catch him.
