Lin Wen came to the Finance Office first, and it was already 9:00 pm, but the lights in the Finance Office had not been extinguished.

Lin Wen didn't bother them, but quietly turned on [Watching Qi and Watching People], and glanced through the crack of the door.

The work inside is busy, and there are 15 people including the chief and deputy directors, who are still counting their belongings. On a square table not far from them, a large pile of cash was neatly placed together, showing a charming golden color under the light, and complementing the gold stacked next to it, forming a wave of wealth.

And what they are counting now is all kinds of jewelry, diamonds and valuables.

This was Fatty Zhang, who had been completely choked by Lin Wen's pancake at that time, and took out the treasures to repay the debt because he didn't bring enough 15 million in cash. Among them, the 25.6-gram sapphire that Director Lei held was the money paid to Fang Weiwei.

This also brought huge troubles to the valuation of the Finance Department. They constantly verified the authenticity, purity, quality and flaws of the jewelry, and found a lot of information to estimate their value as accurately as possible.

The entire financial department was full of sighs, hair scratches, flipping books, complaints and incredible exclamations.

In Lin Wen's eyes, most of their auras are pale yellow mixed with green and white, with occasional dark brown or black scattered.

According to the description of the spell, this should be the performance of normal people, with occasional greed, but suppressed by duties, ethics and laws. Among them, Director Lei's aura is the most special. It is a bluish-white hexagonal square, solidified and motionless, and the surface is covered with gray crack-like aura.

This should show that Director Lei has a stubborn mind and trustworthy professional ethics, but his mind has been in a state of depression for a long time.

I can't read more. Lin Wen is not a professional qi warlock. The detailed description of this spell is too thick. Lin Wen only read the general outline and basic content, and there are more than a dozen books that are as thick as Oxford dictionaries, so he temporarily gave up.

Besides, except for those who are all black, people's aura is not static, and it cannot be seen through at a glance, so it is enough to know a general idea.

From this point of view, Director Lei should be trustworthy for the time being, and there is no need to worry about someone getting into his own pocket.

Just as he was thinking, he accidentally tripped the door.

With a squeak, the people in the financial department immediately spotted Sheriff Lin at the door.

The deputy director, Lao Xie, immediately beamed with joy. He pushed Director Lei behind him, grabbed the ledger, and ran all the way to the front of Sheriff Lin.

Lin Wen didn't want to waste Qiqiao Linglong's heart at this time, so he immediately stopped him: "How much is it now?"

Lao Xie replied: "Thanks to the wise leadership of the county chief, the assets have been confirmed to be 11.06 million, and the remaining assets should be valued at about 5.5-6 million."

Lin Wen asked in surprise, "Why are there more?"

Old Xie smiled and said, "This is all thanks to the sheriff! The valuation of jewelry and diamonds is the most variable. Although gold is relatively stable, it also fluctuates, but these differences are not big. The main reason is the Posilda sapphire. The saint of the Federation may buy it at a high price."

Lin Wen has long turned a blind eye to the weirdness of this world. It doesn't matter what kind of saint and witch he is, and he can't cast forbidden spells, so it's useless.

He only cares about one thing now: "Is it troublesome to realize cash? Is it quick to return the funds?"

Director Lei next to him couldn't get out of his old mouth: "County Chief, it is absolutely impossible for the empire to sell luxury goods..."

Lao Xie immediately kicked Director Lei away, and said with a flattering smile: "This guy has a brain problem. He was kicked by a donkey when he was a child. County Chief Lin must not take it to heart."

Lin Wen ignored him: "Hurry up to cash out and return the funds as soon as possible. It is best not to lose any money. This is all the money of the victims."

Lao Xie patted his chest: "Sheriff Lin understands the righteousness and loves the people like children. This is the great blessing of thousands of people in Changshan County! Mayor Lin please rest assured! The subordinates will definitely live up to the entrustment of the mayor."

Lin Wen was disgusted by the deputy director, and wanted to say a few words, but his heart seemed to be blocked by oil, and he couldn't get the words out of his mouth.

Just as he was about to turn around and leave, Director Lei jumped out and said, "This is impossible. Jewelry and other valuables are not necessities. If you want to sell quickly, you must sell at a low price. If you want to sell at a high price, you must sell slowly."

The deputy director, Lao Xie, was so angry that his ears were smoking. He urged and ordered, but he still didn't hold the donkey. He grabbed Lao Lei by the collar, ignoring that the county chief was here, and yelled, "Can you shut up if you don't know how to talk? I need you to teach me when I do something? How do you know it can't be done quickly and well?"

Lao Lei retorted: "If you want to sell quickly, it becomes a buyer's market, and people dare to lower the price!"

Old Xie pouted: "I'll buy your ancestors and crush your grandpa!"

Lin Wen was very annoyed, and said: "Then hurry up, get the money into the account before the cash runs out, and sell as much as you can!" After finishing speaking, he turned and left, ignoring the clattering noises behind him.

Back at the county governor's office, I found the home address and landline of Yuan Zhimen, the deputy director of the office. A phone call dragged him out of bed, and ordered him to report to the governor's office immediately, asking the engineering team of the Seventh Construction Corps to return to continue construction. Changshan County had money to pay for their project.

After studying the reconstruction construction drawings for a while, Lin Wen had already made up his mind and without any hesitation, leaned back on the sheriff's chair and fell asleep directly.

He had slept on it every night since becoming Sheriff.

At the same time, Sheng Huaixuan, the governor far away in Danyangdu, still hadn't fallen asleep. He was sitting on a chair, hunched over, smoking a cigarette, buried himself in the mist, and remained silent.

At this time, the governor is no longer like a senior official in power, but like an old farmer who is worried about this year's harvest.

"Huaixuan." A middle-aged woman opened the door and came in. "Don't worry about the disaster fund. You are not the emperor. If the imperial headquarters doesn't allocate the disaster fund to you, why do you still want to raise troops to grab it?"

Sheng Huaixuan put out a cigarette butt, and then smoked another.

The middle-aged woman saw how he was frowning, and said with a smile: "You really have this idea? It doesn't matter whether you go or not, come, drink the ginseng soup first, your body is important."

Sheng Huaixuan took a sip of the ginseng soup, his brows loosened slightly: "Huaixiu, what do you think of me being transferred to the Qing Army?"

The middle-aged woman Huaixiu thought for a while: "Do you want to dig out Lao Liu's roots, or do you want to cut off the money of the gentlemen on Capitol Hill?"

Sheng Huaixuan shook his head: "I want to intercept the gold that Longzhou handed over to the Imperial Headquarters."

Huaixiu was startled: "Your Majesty can't handle it."

Sheng Huaixuan said with a smile: "Long Xingjun will help me cover it."

"Li Long..." Huaixiu choked for a moment, but still did not dare to call the emperor's name, and said softly, "Your Majesty is under a lot of pressure, why don't you do this, you have been too aggressive recently. The elders are a little dissatisfied with you."

"It's impossible."

Sheng Huaixuan shook his head.

"They stuck me like this because they wanted to put me to death. This flood gave them an excuse and shells to attack me. The transformation of East Qinzhou must not be stopped."

Huaixiu still wanted to persuade: "But..."

Sheng Huaixuan drank the ginseng soup in one gulp: "Huaixiu, you don't understand, as long as there is no problem inside me, I will be as strong as gold. If the inside collapses, let alone a typhoon, I will fall down even with a little finger."

The weakness is only temporary, and the strong power has returned to the governor. He opened the document and said, "I'm only worried about one thing now. The kid in Changshan County can't withstand the pressure. If he is broken, I will have a weakness."

Huaixiu lightly helped him press his shoulders: "You said why did you suddenly think of giving him Jieduquan?"

Sheng Huaixuan thought of the scene at that time, laughed, and said: "Huaixiu, you don't know that kid, before you see him, just look at his resume, after a hero, I am looking forward to the hero's journey."

"As a result, guess what I saw?"

Huaixiu likes this kind of dialogue very much, it reminds her of when they were young, and said, "What did you see?"

"I saw an old man in the officialdom, watertight, full of flattery, smooth and cunning, do you know how I felt at that time?"

Huaixiu thought for a while: "I was deceived, thinking that he also obtained his official position by flattery and flattery. He is not a hero at all."

"That's a good guess! I wanted to send him away quickly and change people in a few months. I didn't expect this kid to surprise me later. He asked me for money, resource support, tax-free rights combined with tax rebates, free trade rights, key areas of the empire's main plan, new financial pilots, these six items. Think about it carefully."

Huaixiu was talented, and after thinking about it for a while, he couldn't help but exclaimed: "This is what Changshan County needs most. He only mentioned these five items, and he didn't mention other imperial policies, which proves that he has carefully studied the development of Changshan County. If I were to come and propose these five items accurately, I would have to study in Changshan County for at least a year. This is definitely not a sycophant."

"That's right." Sheng Huaixuan said with a smile, "It's a pity that I can't agree to these five items, and then the boy's face turned green, thinking that I would fall into his trap after a while of flattery, too young."

"Isn't it?" Huaixiu leaned on his back and whispered softly, "Anything you promise is a heavy burden for you. With the current situation, you will not come."

"Then when I thought he had nothing to do, he suddenly asked me for Jieduquan."

"Can you understand? That all-or-nothing attitude, the kind of attitude that I have nothing, but as long as I let me use it, I can change the aura of a blue sky."

Huaixiu smiled and said, "Then you are tempted, I know, you like this kind of person."

"Just like you."

"Just like me."

The two said at the same time, looking at each other and smiling.

"But now, I have some regrets. My enemies can't do anything to me, but they may turn their heads to attack that kid. After all, he is young and doesn't understand the cruelty of strife within the empire. I worry that he may be crushed."

"And I don't have enough skills to help him directly. The situation in Changshan County is also very dangerous now. The post-disaster reconstruction is a hole that must be filled, otherwise there will be big troubles. According to Secretary Cheng, there are many people who oppose him in Changshan County."

"He must be having a very hard time right now."
