After hearing the conversation between the two, Zhao Ji approached them calmly.
The two men had not yet noticed Zhao Ji's presence and were discussing the affairs of Huaixiang Town.
"But Huaixiang Town has no official position now. And this person called Zhao Chun, if I remember correctly, should be from a business family. I have heard of Zhao Chun, and he seems to be a little slow in reaction. Is such a person necessary?"
One person was slightly skeptical.
But soon his voice was drowned out by another person's voice.
"What do you mean by necessary? After all, their family is rich. Where else can you get a deal like this where you pay three thousand taels of gold?"
"Even if Zhao Chun is a fool, so what? He is just a ninth-rank official, so what? Brother, why do you have to be so hard on your own money?"
Zhao Ji came forward, his expression becoming more serious the more he listened.
Obviously, the buying and selling of officials is now a very common thing in the eyes of these two people.
The person sitting on that official position is not important at all now. Even if he is a fool or an idiot, they are willing to promote him for money.
Sure enough, after listening to the advice of one person, the other person no longer insisted, and the two began to discuss the distribution of the money.
"I'll put my name in there later. When the time comes to appoint someone to the position, remember to help. When this thing is done, both of us will have gold in our accounts."
"Brother, don't curse me behind my back. I am greedy for money. To be honest, with three thousand taels of gold, he can buy a fifth-rank official position."
"Now, we just want a small ninth-rank official position. If we can get such a good deal, we should just keep quiet and make a fortune!"
Zhao Ji did not listen any further, but walked out of the Ministry of Personnel with a calm expression.
The two people's voices and conversation lingered in Zhao Ji's mind.
After leaving the Ministry of Personnel, Zhao Ji specifically asked his men to investigate who this Zhao Chun from Huai Town was.
Soon Zhao Ji received the information of this man named Zhao Chun.
After reading the information, Zhao Ji looked very bad.
It turns out that Zhao Chun from Huai'an Town is actually a complete fool.
Not to mention that he has never taken any examinations to become an official, he also has problems communicating with normal people in his daily life.
Now, with only 3,000 taels of gold, one can become an official, and even a local official in a small place like Huaixiang Town.
It is hard to imagine how such a fool would judge cases and bring justice to the people if he sat in the county government office.
In Huaixiang Town, there was an extremely outrageous phenomenon that a fool became the county magistrate. Even when Zhao Ji told Yueying about this matter, Yueying still found it outrageous.
"That's why I said that there is definitely something wrong with the Ministry of Personnel!" Zhao Ji told Yueying these things not because Yueying was a woman.
It’s because Yueying is the emperor’s person, and now Yueying might tell the emperor all the information that Zhao Ji revealed unconsciously.
This can be considered as Zhao Ji paving the way for his future.
Even if you want to file a complaint, you should do it in an easy way.
The Minister of Personnel, Wang Yu, has been feeling his eyelids twitching lately, as if something ominous is about to happen.
He found an excuse today and gave his subordinates a severe scolding, and only then did he feel a little relieved.
"You guys help me watch here today, I have some things I need to go out to do!"
After scolding his men, Wang Yu felt a little better. He left a message and turned away.
The place he went to was none other than Zuixianlou, a famous den of brothel in the capital.
After the last fake eunuch incident, those three top performers were somehow not affected at all.
Wang Yu felt that his wife was being dull at home recently, so he wanted to ask Hongyu to come and keep him company.
However, he never expected that after Wang Yu went there, he did not see the top-notch Hongyu as he wished.
This made him a little unhappy, so he threw a heavy ingot of silver directly on the face of Zuixianlou's mother.
"Didn't I tell you before that you can't entertain guests? Could it be that the money I give you every month has been ignored by you?"
Wang Yu's face was gloomy. Zuixianlou's mother was hit by the money, but she didn't look angry. Instead, she picked up the silver and bit it in her mouth.
"What are you talking about, sir? We naturally take your instructions to heart, but it just so happens that... a higher-ranking sir ordered us to lend out the red jade a few days ago."
"Today, some new girls came to the building. They are all newborns and have never lost their virginity. My Lord, please don't despise them. Why don't you change your taste and give these girls some chances?"
Zuixianlou's mother had been through so many things and met so many people that she calmed the Minister of Personnel with just a few words.
Besides, Zuixianlou's mother had already said that she was a person with a higher official position, so the Minister of Personnel felt that it was pointless to ask further and it would be a waste of time.
And even if you ask, there is definitely no definite answer.
Anyway, we are all out here to have fun today, so no matter who she is, just have fun.
"In that case, call the people up to me!"
The Minister of Personnel Wang Yu stopped struggling and nodded in agreement.
While the Minister of Personnel was enjoying himself in the brothel, Zhao Ji had already sent someone to sneak into his study.
To find something.
Ledger.
Zhao Ji heard some gossip in the Ministry of Personnel today.
For example, the Minister of Personnel has an account book that he never lets anyone else see.
Zhao Ji's intuition told him that this account book must record the flow of money involved in buying and selling official positions.
So the top priority now is to get the evidence first.
Only then can the Minister of Personnel be removed from office as a matter of course.
The Minister of Personnel looked at the beautiful women who had just entered the attic and couldn't help feeling extremely excited.
Homemade flowers are not as fragrant as wild flowers, and wild flowers are not as fragrant as the secretly grown ones.
The Minister of Personnel liked this kind of exciting feeling, and he soon picked a tall and beautiful woman.
Pulling people into the house obviously means he wants to accomplish something.
However, this tall and beautiful woman managed to mediate for a while and chatted for half an hour.
It only came to fruition later.
That night, the key information from the conversation between the beauty and the Minister of Personnel was sorted out and placed on Zhao Ji's desk.
That’s right, this beauty was sent by Zhao Ji to seduce the Minister of Personnel, in the hope of digging out some secrets from him in bed.
Zhao Ji had not found anything in the Minister of Personnel's mansion before, so he did not pin his hopes on this tall beauty.
But I didn’t expect that there was a more important point in this conversation information.
The Minister of Personnel actually held an internal election!
