Chapter 107

Registrar He He and the others saw that Jia Hui acted in an orderly and decisive manner, knowing that this was a formidable person who was not easy to fool.

They were all even more in awe.

"A brute? If this is called a brute, then are we not stupid pigs?"

Registrar He He and the others cursed inwardly one after another.

Rumors are harmful!

Fortunately, they hadn't dared to contradict him just now or show any signs of looking down on Jia Hui!

Only Qiu Liang.

Everyone was looking at him with some schadenfreude at this moment!

Just based on what this person had displayed!

It was truly incredibly stupid!

Qiu Liang felt the gazes of his colleagues around him and immediately felt Love Love Like he was sitting on pins and needles!

His complexion was extremely gloomy.

He also hadn't expected that this Jia Hui was not at all the brainless brute from the rumors.

Whoever believed that was the brainless fool!

Soon.

The roster was sent over.

Merit Officer Cao Hongli was respectful at this moment, carefully handing the roster to Jia Hui with both hands: "Please inspect it, Commander!"

Jia Hui took it and flipped through it.

He looked for a while.

He remained expressionless throughout.

Letting no one see what he was thinking inside.

Therefore, they were even more uneasy and full of awe!

After looking for a while.

Jia Hui gave the roster to Chen Gong, who was at his side, to look at.

After Chen Gong took it, he began to examine it in detail.

This made many people look at him with new respect and not dare to underestimate him.

They knew that this must be a trusted confidant whom Jia Hui relied upon.

While Chen Gong was examining it.

Jia Hui’s eyes were as sharp as knives and demons!

Making everyone who met his gaze lower their heads in awe.

Including Qiu Liang, who now moved his eyes away with some fear.

Suddenly, Jia Hui spoke: "Warehouse Officer Kang Kang Kang Yushu."

"Subordinate is here!"

Warehouse Officer Kang Kang Kang Yushu felt a jolt in his heart.

He didn't know why Jia Hui was calling him.

Then he hurriedly stepped out of the ranks.

Warehouse Officer Kang Kang Kang Yushu was a conventional scholar, with a short beard on his face, looking Love Love Like an upright person.

But his eyes darted around, giving people a feeling of being cunning and deceitful.

And this person was indeed cunning and deceitful.

However, Jia Hui calling him.

Was not because of anything else.

But because on the way in.

Chen Gong had mentioned this person to Jia Hui: "He is the Prince of Yu’s man!"

Jia Hui believed this deeply.

In just a few short hours, Chen Gong had collected so much useful information.

It was truly frightening.

His ability was incredibly strong.

He was worthy of being the resourceful Chen Gong!

When Jia Hui and Chen Gong were discussing last night.

Regarding how to act today.

They had already prepared a draft in their minds.

Mainly determined.

Three fires for a new official.

Strike one faction, kill one faction, recruit one faction!

In this way, he could quickly take over the Five Cities Military Commission.

Just now, Jia Hui made things difficult for Qiu Liang.

That was striking one faction.

In reality, it didn't necessarily have to be Qiu Liang, it was just that he happened to court death and deliver himself to the door.

For this type of person, Jia Hui would suppress them severely!

Suppressing those who did not submit to him.

The purpose was to make everyone else feel awe, submission, and obedience toward him.

And killing one faction?

That was to further make everyone feel awe, submission, and obedience.

This was one point.

Another point was that only by "killing them" could he quickly let his own trusted subordinates take over.

This Warehouse Officer Kang Kang Kang Yushu was merely another unlucky fellow.

Many of the people in the government office had various backgrounds.

Who to take action against was a problem.

Since this Warehouse Officer Kang Kang Kang Yushu was a man of the Prince of Yu, who was Jia Hui’s enemy.

Then he was a priority.

"You are in charge of the government office’s warehouse, supplies, and other matters, right?"

Jia Hui asked.

"Yes."

Kang Kang Kang Yushu replied.

"When did you take office?"

"I have been in office for five years to date."

Kang Kang Kang Yushu continued to answer truthfully.

The two asked and answered.

Jia Hui was confirming Kang Kang Kang Yushu’s tenure.

Why?

If Kang Kang Kang Yushu had taken office now, or recently.

Then if something went wrong in his department at the government office.

It would be difficult to blame him.

This was the detail!

Upon learning it had been five years, the corners of Jia Hui’s mouth immediately curled into an arc.

However, it quickly disappeared!

"Bring the account books here."

Because he had just obtained the roster.

Kang Kang Kang Yushu did not suspect anything.

He left immediately.

Compared to the roster.

His ledgers were far more numerous.

After all, the accounts for weapons, provisions, and funds were extremely complex.

Jia Hui pretended to inspect them, flipping through them casually.

Then he said offhandedly:

"Hand over the warehouse keys."

This was also a matter of course.

Kang Kang Kang Yushu still felt nothing was amiss.

He then produced the keys with a fawning smile.

In his heart, he sneered, "I made preparations long ago; I bet you can't find anything."

He had indeed embezzled some, but he had cooked the books beautifully.

Thus, he was confident there would be no major issues.

Even if there were minor discrepancies, it wouldn't count as a major crime.

Once he dealt with this,

Jia Hui would be unable to do anything to him.

The Registrar He He and the others thought the same.

"Hmph, I thought he could pull some tricks; a brute is just a brute."

Seeing this, Qiu Liang couldn't help but sneer with contempt once more.

[114] Fearless! A Thudding Kneel! Mercy, Provincial Military Commander!

The City Guard was vast.

It had many courtyards.

The warehouses alone consisted of several rooms.

Each entrance was guarded by small soldiers.

Jia Hui demanded the keys directly.

Kang Kang Kang Yushu even smiled and offered to lead the way personally.

Jia Hui glanced at him and said, "I'll go myself. What if you do something behind my back?"

Kang Kang Kang Yushu cursed him as a brainless brute under his breath.

What could I possibly do in such a short time? Whatever needed to be done, I finished last night.

He sneered in disdain.

On the surface, he looked aggrieved: "This subordinate would never, I have been performing my duties impartially, I am wronged."

Jia Hui couldn't be bothered with him.

He shook off the crowd.

Taking only Zang Ba with him, he stormed toward the warehouses!

Leaving Chen Gong behind to continue reviewing the other ledgers.

The others had no choice but to watch Chen Gong in silence or wait.

In their hearts, they were frantically badmouthing Jia Hui.

They didn't have to wait long!

Zang Ba returned with a look of fury!

"Warehouse Official Kang Kang Kang Yushu."

"Present."

Kang Kang Kang Yushu felt suspicious.

However, he still believed he had done everything flawlessly.

Thus, he remained fearless.

"The Provincial Military Commander orders you to roll over and see him immediately!"

"What?"

Kang Kang Kang Yushu was shocked.

Then his expression turned ugly.

He hadn't expected Jia Hui to be so excessive toward him as well.

Rage welled up inside him.

If he couldn't find any faults later, he would see how he could mock him.

He would definitely inform Prince Yu later to properly discipline this scoundrel!

Qiu Liang and the others were puzzled.

But they all felt Jia Hui was just looking for trouble, definitely picking bones out of an egg.

After all, they all knew Kang Kang Kang Yushu.

They knew this guy couldn't possibly be unprepared.

And if he couldn't find any major fault,

and Jia Hui just threw a tantrum and looked for trouble,

although everyone would dare to be angry but not speak, they would never submit to him!

Then everyone watched as he left with his head held high.

They heard Zang Ba shout loudly at them: "The Provincial Military Commander orders all of you to go as well."

Qiu Liang and the others sneered.

"Go then, are we afraid of you!"

"Let's see what tricks you can pull!"

"It would be best to watch you make a fool of yourself!"

"Heh, he's just a young boy after all, how could he be a match for us?"

"Just knowing how to curse and criticize won't help!"

With different thoughts,

the group, who kept mocking Jia Hui in their hearts, followed silently.

"Mr. Gongtai?"

Gao Gao Gao Bingzhu and Bai Lang looked at Chen Gong.

Because Chen Gong was a scholar,

and a trusted person of Jia Hui,

and they had seen his performance just now,

they held him in high regard.

Chen Gong's face was Love Love Like stone, solemn and firm, and he said: "Let's go and see together."

"Yes."

Gao Gao Gao Bingzhu and the others were equally curious about what Jia Hui was up to,

so they all followed.

Before long,

everyone arrived at the warehouse courtyard!

Jia Hui stood in the center of the courtyard.

Everyone discovered that the doors to every room were wide open!
