Fake Eunuch: Discovering the Emperor is a Woman!-Chapter 124: Distributing Money

"What to do? A mere Minister of Ministry of Industry, can they really shit and piss on the heads of our seniors?

You guys wait here. I’m going right back to our master to tell him. When the time comes, we’ll take this guy down."

After saying this, Liu the steward immediately swept his sleeve and walked away in a huff, and upon seeing this, the rest of the onlookers also turned their heads and left one after another.

Meanwhile, they were all thinking about going back and telling their own masters about this incident.

And indeed, after they returned, they did exactly that.

However, when Liu the steward went back and reported everything to Liu Fu, Liu Fu was stunned for a moment.

He then jumped up from his chair and glared furiously at his steward. His lips trembling, he began to curse at him.

He knew all too well how he himself became the Minister of Revenue and how his predecessor was removed.

All this was because of that Eunuch Lin.

Many might not know, his own steward might not understand, but he knew very well that the young man now sitting in the Ministry of Industry was none other than that Eunuch Lin.

The current Emperor is indeed shining brightly, having completely turned the tables.

At this moment, even the Princes are giving the young Emperor some face, after all, he wields control over the three guards.

At this time, his word is the heaviest.

Eunuch Lin is his most trusted Prime Minister, offending Eunuch Lin now would clearly be a very unwise move.

Therefore, after returning, he scolded the steward heavily and, not only that, after the scolding, he told the steward to immediately take some Silver and give it to that Eunuch Liu, and also tell him that they are willing to spend Silver to hire craftsmen to build houses.

Not just that, after doing all this, he rushed non-stop to the Ministry of Revenue and directly had all the unpaid salaries of the past two months delivered.

This action was enough to show his attitude, it was obvious that he was indeed filled with a certain fear of Lin Yi.

And just as Liu the steward brought enough Silver Tael to the Ministry of Industry, he was shocked to find that those stewards who had come with him before and also cursed Lin Yi together were now eagerly bringing Silver Coin here.

They were also quietly pleading with Lin Yi to send some craftsmen to their masters’ homes while stuffing Silver into his hands.

At this point, Liu the steward already knew that these people weren’t really here for the craftsmen; their true purpose was to give Lin Yi the money.

And the one before him, he never would have imagined, even his own master wouldn’t dare to offend him.

This also filled him with deep fear and regret.

Especially thinking back to how he had confronted Lin Yi before and had also left some harsh words, he instantly became panicked.

He walked up somewhat reluctantly, first presenting the Silver in his hands, then he begged Lin Yi to send craftsmen to his master’s home.

It wasn’t clear if Lin Yi was truly magnanimous or seeing the Silver swayed him, as he didn’t cause any difficulties for him. Instead, he took the Silver with a smile and told him to go back and wait for news.

It was nearly an hour later when these people gradually left, and meanwhile, in Lin Yi’s room, several large chests had now appeared.

When Lu Feng arrived and saw this scene, he was suddenly puzzled, especially when he saw the large chests in the room, he was more astonished. What is Lin Yi planning to do?

Could it be that he wants to clean up this place again?

Are the contents of these chests his personal belongings?

Perhaps seeing his confusion, Lin Yi put down the brush in his hand and smiled at Lu Feng:

"Round up the brothers, tell everyone that we will directly distribute the salaries shortly."

Upon hearing this, Lu Feng was startled and did not understand why Lin Yi would say this.

As for those people lining up to give Lin Yi money just now, he wasn’t aware of it.

"Go open that chest over there, have a look for yourself. Call over a couple of brothers, take a chest, and let’s head outside."

Lin Yi wanted everyone to see that he wasn’t just making unrealistic promises, but was seriously increasing their salary by several times.

When Lu Feng opened that chest, he was immediately dumbfounded, standing still in front of the chest for a long while without saying a word, but at this moment his mouth was agape, wide enough to fit a duck egg.

It was not until Lin Yi coughed that he finally managed to pull his thoughts back.

He turned his head with difficulty, incredulous as he looked at Lin Yi, and only when he saw Lin Yi’s somewhat playful smile did he truly believe that all this was not a dream.

Just at that moment, a burst of noise came from outside again, and someone hurriedly came in to notify Lin Yi, the Ministry of Revenue had delivered the overdue salary.

This was somewhat unexpected for Lin Yi, but thinking over it, it all made sense likely related to his own authority.

The attitude of Liu the steward was enough to show that Liu Fu must be somewhat wary of him.

Now with the overdue salary, it will be easier to account for.

Hence, without waiting for Lu Feng to call everyone, all the employees had already gathered outside, discussing the possibility of receiving their long-overdue salary.

Everyone’s face showed excitement, although Lu Feng had just told them that they would all receive several times the salary, they were evidently skeptical.

"Alright, everyone quiet down, I have a few things to say."

Lin Yi stepped out with Lu Feng into the open space outside, also seeing the thousands of people gathering there.

Looking at their tattered clothes, Lin Yi was somewhat moved.

Following his words, the thousands of people outside immediately quieted down, all turning their gaze toward Lin Yi and the large chests behind him.

Of course, these chests weren’t the ones from his room but were the salaries just transported from the Ministry of Revenue.

"Everyone is probably aware by now, right? It’s not just this once."
