Looking at the prison chief and warehouse manager kneeling in front of him, Magistrate Sun's eyelids twitched.
Yun Er is such a weakling. With so much effort, he has caused so much trouble for himself!
Prison bosses and warehouse supervisors all have certain positions and have back-offices. Even if they are county magistrates, they cannot move around casually.
Fortunately, that guy Yun Er wasn't too badass and actually got their confessions.
Looking at the two bloody confessions, Magistrate Sun's eyelids twitched even more.
A prison boss and a warehouse supervisor are all this kind of thing. If their confessions are true, they will die ten thousand times without repenting!
Not to mention the cell leader, who blackmailed prisoners, secretly exchanged prisoners, and tortured prisoners, he actually dared to disobey his orders and personally sent someone to take Yun Er to mention Tang Long. He actually dared not to let people go. Isn't this seeking death?
Looking at the statement of the warehouse supervisor, it is simply shocking.
Reselling ordnance, passing it off as good, treating good ordnance as scrap, saying it was destroyed, but actually selling it to bandits...
One after another, some were done before Magistrate Sun came, and some were done after Magistrate Sun came. If these were reported, Magistrate Sun would definitely not be able to get away with the crime of oversight.
No wonder that guy Pan Yong came to me to complain some time ago, saying that the military weapons used by the soldiers were old and should have been replaced long ago. However, the armory said that there were not so many new weapons, and it turned out that the old guy had taken them out and resold them!
Damn it!
Damn it!
If the army in Qingyang County had replenished its ordnance, would Pan Yong not have died, and the officers and soldiers in Qingyang County would not have suffered such heavy losses?
Magistrate Sun didn't dare to think about it anymore. The matter was of great importance. Once word got out, it didn't matter whether the superiors would hold them accountable. Even if the superiors didn't hold them accountable, the families of the dead officers and soldiers would not give up!
"Detain him, detain him, wait until I ask Yun Er... ahem, wait until I investigate clearly, and then I will make a decision!"
Magistrate Sun was too lazy to listen to the explanations of the prison chief and the warehouse supervisor, and asked them to be taken away and kept under good watch. He wanted to go to the armory himself to see if, as Yun Er said, there was nothing available in the warehouse. of ordnance!
Because he was anxious, Magistrate Sun came very quickly.
Before Yun Chao left, Magistrate Sun arrived.
Seeing Magistrate Sun, Yun Chao pulled his chest and said, "Magistrate, why are you here in person? Why didn't you tell me in advance and let me greet you outside the door!"
"Yun Er, you kid, stop being such a mouthful. I'm here to see if what you said is true or false. Why did the warehouse manager say there are still some ordnances in the warehouse, but you said there isn't even a single usable one? How on earth is that possible? What's going on?"
Yun Chao quietly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he acted quickly and transported all the usable ordnance away before Magistrate Sun came. Otherwise, it would have been really troublesome.
Of course, Yunchao did not wrong the warehouse manager.
After Yun Chao's inspection, he found that the ordnance in the warehouse was less than half of what was recorded in the accounts.
Moreover, many of the existing ordnance are junk. The spear heads are so rusted that they break when poked, the swords are so rusted that they cannot be sharpened, the shields have big holes and small eyes, some bows and crossbows have broken strings, and some armors are rotten. It's almost falling apart...
Seeing so many good things being wasted, Yun Chao felt so distressed that he really wanted to kill someone.
The good things that I couldn't get by all means were just ruined by these corrupt officials. If I didn't kill them, I would be sorry for the people who paid taxes in the Great Wu Dynasty!
Therefore, based on the principle of protecting ordnance, rescuing ordnance, and maximizing the value of ordnance, Yun Chao asked his men to transport all usable ordnance away.
There were some junk items left that had no repair value and were left for Magistrate Sun to deliver.
Unexpectedly, Magistrate Sun actually came in person, and he came so quickly. Fortunately, the boys worked quickly, otherwise it would be difficult to explain.
Magistrate Sun looked at the empty armory and the remaining junk ordnance that had no value. The fat on his face was twitching as if he had Parkinson's disease.
There were so many ordnances in the accounts, but not even one of them was usable. How should he, the highest official of Qingyang County, explain it?
Once the superiors sent someone to investigate, Magistrate Sun felt that his black hat would definitely be lost.
Straight bitch!
Magistrate Sun gritted his teeth with hatred. If he hadn't had to go through the formalities, he would have killed the old guy in charge of the warehouse now!
Of course, Magistrate Sun is not a fool: "Yun Er, did you transport all the ordnance in the warehouse?"
Yun Chao shook his head like a rattle: "County magistrate, you can talk nonsense, but you can't eat food randomly... Ahem, it's the other way around. You can eat food randomly, but you can't talk nonsense. I don't have a key, and I don't have a key. How could power transport all the ordnance in the warehouse? If you don’t believe me, ask my subordinates if I have touched anything in the warehouse?"
Magistrate Sun wanted to slap Yun Chao to death. These guys are all your subordinates. What is the difference between asking them and asking yourself?
"Hmph, where are the clerks in the warehouse? Call them all over. I want to ask them!"
Yun Chao scratched his head: "County magistrate, I was afraid that they would rebel, so I locked them all up. Since you want to see them, I will have them released."
"you……"
Magistrate Sun has completely lost his temper. If you lock up all the clerks in the warehouse in advance, who can see whether you have transported the ordnance from the warehouse?
No, this matter is no small matter, you must figure it out yourself!
Magistrate Sun doesn't want to let it go like this. He can't just take whatever Yun Er says. If he doesn't get those weapons back, he may not be able to keep his official position!
Thinking of this, Magistrate Sun was going to go out and ask if the people around the warehouse had seen Yun Chao transporting anything from the warehouse.
However, as soon as Magistrate Sun turned around and before he could take a step forward, he heard Yun Chao say: "Magistrate, I'm very worried. The prison and armory are like this. Will there be problems with our county's granary? "
"What?"
Magistrate Sun's scalp was numb.
If there is a problem in the prison, he can still cover it up.
If something went wrong in the armory, it would be difficult to cover it up.
If there is another problem with the granary, then as the magistrate of Qingyang County, he will probably have no choice but to hang himself!
Whether it is a county, a prefecture, or even the entire Dawu Dynasty, nothing is more important than food.
It's easy to deal with problems in other places, but no one can handle problems in the granary!
Not to mention he is just a county magistrate, he is also a prefect, magistrate, or even a larger official. Once there is a problem with the granary under his rule, he will definitely not end well!
Yun Chao's reminder was unreasonable. Since there were problems with the prison and the armory, there was probably a problem with the granary as well.
Magistrate Sun's clothes were soaked with cold sweat.
Oh my gosh, don't let anything go wrong in the granary, or you'll be completely doomed!
