According to the income of the palace in recent years, this should be the majority.
That means there should be only a small part of it at the palace.
Of course, this is just Butler Zhuang's own guess.
"Butler Zhuang, according to your estimate, how much silver is here?" Zhang Feimo suddenly asked.
"That's easy to estimate. According to my estimate, it's about 100,000 taels."
"Manager Liang is only the manager of this village. According to your estimation, where did these silver coins come from?" Zhang Feimo asked again.
"My Lord, I just said that I know all this. I am just a housekeeper in the palace. How can I know these things when you ask me? Besides, is this your responsibility? I hope you can inform our palace after checking it out, so that we can take more precautions."
It's hard to find any fault with what he said.
Seeing that Zhang Feimo was speechless, Steward Zhuang felt even more proud.
Thinking of the last time, he still holds a grudge.
Then he continued:
"And sir, our master said that this matter has absolutely nothing to do with Ma Tieshu. This cubicle is Ma Tieshu. I have seen him embezzle a lot of money on weekdays. For such a person, I hope you will not show mercy and deal with him impartially."
"Besides, our master also said that this time it was our palace that reported Manager Liang and Ma Tieshu, which is also a great achievement. The master also asked me to ask the adults if there is any reward."
"It would be better if you said so, so that I can do my job without bothering the steward." Zhang Feimo said coldly.
"I would also like to trouble you, but you are still too young and hot-tempered. In my opinion, you still don't know what is good for you. I believe you have heard the saying that an arm can twist a thigh, right? Don't you know how much weight you have?" Butler Zhuang sneered.
Thinking back to the first time I met Zhang Feimo, he made me stand at the door for many hours.
At that time, he gnashed his teeth in hatred, thinking that now he finally had the chance to take revenge.
He said, no matter how powerful you are, you are just a kid, what abilities can you have?
Speaking of it, it's just luck and passion.
As for such a person, Manager Zhuang didn't take him seriously at all.
"I have read poetry and books for more than ten years, so I have naturally heard this. I am afraid that Steward Zhuang does not understand. Don't forget, I am an official and you are a citizen."
After saying this, Zhang Feimo directly waved his hand towards Xiao Wu and said, "Carry it away!"
Just when he reached the door, Zhang Feimo seemed to suddenly remember something.
He turned around and looked at Butler Zhuang, who was looking at him with a half-smile.
Looking at Zhang Feimo like this, the housekeeper suddenly had a foreboding premonition.
But thinking of his age, he still looked arrogant towards him.
Soon, he heard Zhang Feimo's voice...
"Butler Zhuang, based on what you just said, I have every reason to suspect that these are the hard-earned money of the people of Heshan County. If this is the case, then these silver coins should be returned to the people of Heshan County."
"Sir...Sir, what do you mean by this?" Butler Zhuang asked stutteringly.
It's because he is holding on very hard, while others may collapse.
"My meaning is very clear. I want to thank Steward Zhuang for reminding me. Because of you, I realized that these are the blood and sweat of the people of Heshan County. It is also because of Steward Zhuang's reminder that I suddenly realized that these things should be returned to the people of Heshan County."
As soon as these words came out, Butler Zhuang turned pale.
You know, these are all the property of their palace.
The master and the mistress are still thinking about coming back.
Zhang Feimo distributed it to the people of Heshan County like this, how could their master get it back?
Besides, he just said that he was the one who reminded...
However, Zhang Feimo ignored him and instructed Ji Xiangfeng in front of him:
"Pass on this order. Three days later, all the people in Heshan County will come to the government office to divide the money. Remember to tell all the people in Heshan County that I was able to collect so much money thanks to the steward of the Wangfu. In addition, I will give the steward another tael of silver as a reward."
Hearing Zhang Feimo's words, Hu Yuhao secretly felt happy.
Considering Wang Haotian's character, how could he let Butler Zhuang go after hearing this?
Looking at Butler Zhuang again, he had collapsed to the ground, staring blankly at Zhang Feimo, but couldn't utter a single word.
He seemed to have anticipated his own ending.
It was not until Zhang Feimo left completely that Steward Zhuang came to his senses.
He wanted to chase after him and beg him to take back what he had just said, but he was stopped by Xiao Wu just as he reached the door.
"My Lord said that no one can stop him from doing all this. We Lords decide things, how can you, a housekeeper, interfere?"
Then Xiao Wu left quickly.
Butler Zhuang was left alone, sitting limply on the ground.
Thinking of what I just said, I felt so angry that I slapped myself twice.
Why can you just endure it? I have to say so much just to satisfy myself.
Now, even my life is saved.
Moreover, in Zhang Feimo's words, all this seemed to be a reminder to him.
He knew very well that if Zhang Feimo's words were to reach the master's ears, he would have no chance of surviving.
Those gold, silver and jewels just now seemed to be worth a hundred thousand taels, or even more.
After returning to the government office, Zhang Feimo immediately planned to summarize all the unjust cases over the years.
Of course, if it was just them, it would definitely take a few days to finish.
Therefore, he even called Xiao Wu and Xiao Wu to help with the summary.
No matter how big or small, as long as it was related to the palace, all of them were taken out.
Then, these unjust cases were sorted out one by one according to their severity.
At the same time, he ordered people to spread what he had just said to Butler Zhuang.
Of course, Zhang Feimo didn't just say those words casually.
In addition to wanting to kill the housekeeper, these silvers do belong to the people of Heshan County.
"Sir, do you want to pay compensation based on these cases?" Hu Yuhao looked at Zhang Feimo and asked.
It was while selecting these unjust cases that Hu Yuhao discovered that there were thousands of unjust cases, big and small, involving the royal palace over the years.
"Indeed, some families have suffered greater damage and should receive more compensation."
"My Lord, in your opinion, are all the money that the palace has embezzled over the years here?"
