Xiao Lingyue said: "As the Master of the Pavilion said just now, the construction department is strict and there are absolutely no loopholes to be exploited. But it belongs to the Ministry of Works, and the Ministry of Works is not just the Construction Department. If you start from other aspects, you may not have no chance.
For example, if Your Majesty wants to build a palace, it will be handed over to the Ministry of Works. Everyone in the Ministry of Works will participate, and even if there are no loopholes, there will be loopholes."
The Ministry of Industry is a large organization. In addition to the construction department, there are also many branches such as craftsmen, military farming, and water conservancy.
Each performs his or her duties and will cooperate with each other.
Once cooperation is done, it is difficult to ensure that there will be no problems.
Zhan Beihan narrowed his eyes slightly: "What do you mean is that the loophole may not be from the Construction Department, maybe there is something wrong with other branches of the Ministry of Industry?"
Xiao Lingyue said: "The Construction Department specializes in iron tools and is also the place where the Ministry of Works has the strictest review. How many pairs of eyes are staring inside and outside? Any problems will immediately arouse alert.
If the iron ore smuggling case originated from the work of Prince Nanyan, in order to cover up his eyes, he would never make any moves in too conspicuous places. Instead, he would take a different approach. The more ordinary but inconspicuous places, there will be one.
It may be his target.”
Zhan Beihan: "What about?"
Xiao Lingyue thought for a while and asked, "What is the most common thing in the Ministry of Works?"
The prince said without hesitation: "Materials of wood and stone."
Xiao Lingyue was stunned: "What is this for?"
The three cabinet masters were originally serious and listened seriously, but they were stunned when they heard this.
Master Wen Ge asked in surprise: "Don't the county lord know what the Ministry of Works is usually responsible for?"
Xiao Lingyue shook her head: "I only know the general problem, but I don't know the inside story."
Moreover, the responsibilities of the six ministries of different countries are different, and there are great differences in details.
Xiao Lingyue only knew the situation in Nanyan, but had only a little understanding of Northern Qin.
The prince explained: "The Ministry of Works is usually responsible for water conservancy and civil engineering, such as repairing palaces, building bridges and paving roads. These are all under the management of the Ministry of Works. Therefore, if we say that the most common things in the Ministry of Works must be various wood and stone.
”
Because whether it is repairing palaces, building bridges and paving roads, or building anything.
All of them are inseparable from wood and stone.
A light flashed in Xiao Lingyue's eyes: "Since that's the case, Your Majesty might as well send someone to check it out. Where is the place where the Ministry of Works has transported the most wood and stone in recent years? Perhaps, some discoveries will be made."
Emperor Zhaoming narrowed his eyes slightly: "How do you say this?"
Xiao Lingyue said: "The iron tools of the Construction Department have always been staring at them, and it is difficult to send them out, but there may not be anyone who carefully checks the wood and stones that are commonly seen in the Ministry of Works. If someone takes advantage of this, in the wood or stones
Do some tricks and feet... It is easy to hide the truth if you carry some prohibited things, right?"
As soon as these words came out, the prince and the three cabinet masters were suddenly shocked.
Zhan Beihan looked at her with a deep look in his eyes: "How did you think of this method?"
Xiao Lingyue said: "This is just a guess, not necessarily true."
But this method is indeed feasible.
The inspection methods in ancient times were very low-end, and they all depended on human eyes and hands.
It's too easy to get away with it.
The prince looked ugly and said, "I have managed the affairs of the Ministry of Works before. As the Anping County Lord said, the Ministry of Works strictly guards the iron tools, but is relatively negligent about wood and stones. It is transported from the warehouse and is only randomly inspected.
Let it go once.”
The old master said in a deep voice: "So, if someone really tampers with wood and stone materials, the person in charge of the inspection may not be able to find out?" This chapter has been completed!
