Chapter 5164 Important Matters

Ye Wudao greeted him warmly and said with a smile: "Commander Long, I haven't seen you for a long time. I miss you so much!"

Commander Long said: "Although I work in the palace, I also have a job in the Ministry of Finance. Didn't Lord Ye report to His Majesty a few days ago? Today His Majesty is here to ask you how much you sold it for?"

Ye Wudao took out the prepared lease and handed it to Commander Long.

Then he said: "Please ask the Ministry of Finance to take over this money."

Commander Long saw the price of 4.1 million and thought he had seen it wrong. He rubbed his eyes and looked at it clearly, then he showed a meaningful smile.

"Lord Ye did a good job."

Ye Wudao then took out a storage ring, which contained one million immortal yuan.

After Commander Long took it, he smiled even more.

He said, "Today, the emperor came to ask me to hold him accountable. After all, you relied on Yu Ruyi and contradicted the Minister of Works. The emperor also knew about this. If you don't do your job well today, you may be arrested."

"But now it seems that it is indeed good. The emperor will be very happy, and I will say a few good words to you."

Ye Wudao nodded repeatedly, and then his face changed. He asked carefully: "Did the commander go to the residence of Lord Wu before coming to me?"

"Wu Qingyan?" Commander Long raised his eyebrows.

"Yes."

Commander Long smiled and said, "I have been there. There is only half of what you offer me here, but whether the emperor is happy is what I care about most."

It seems that Wu Qingyan offered 500,000 immortal yuan to Commander Long.

But Commander Long also hinted that it doesn't matter how much he gets. What matters is whether the emperor is happy. As long as the emperor is happy, nothing else matters.

"Okay." Commander Long followed and said, "My job is done. I just need to take the lease you have signed. The rest will be handled by my Ministry of Finance. Thank you, Lord Ye."

Ye Wudao clasped his fists and bowed, "Commander Long, you are polite."

"Yes." Commander Long turned around.

But he suddenly stopped, turned back, and hinted.

"If you have more ideas, you can make suggestions to the emperor. You will probably be rewarded this time."

After saying that, he left.

As soon as Commander Long left, Dao Qing hurriedly trotted over and whispered to Ye Wudao, "Brother, the Ministry of Industry said that there is an urgent matter that needs to be held and you need to go there immediately."

"Yes, prepare the sedan chair, hurry up."

An hour later, Ye Wudao finally arrived at the Ministry of Industry's government office. To be honest, the mansion where he lived was really too far away. Even if he galloped, it would take him an hour to get there.

Moreover, after he arrived, the meeting of the Ministry of Works had already been held. Someone from the Ministry of Works came over and mocked Ye Wudao in a sarcastic way.

"Oh, Lord Ye is really a big shot. He notified me of an urgent matter an hour ago, but he only came now. This is more face than Lord Shangshu."

Ye Wudao glanced at this person coldly and said lightly: "You talk too much nonsense."

Afterwards, he was not in a hurry to leave, and slowly entered the meeting room of the Ministry of Works.

Here, all the officials had already sat down, and the Minister of Works also sat in the upper seat. As Ye Wudao entered, pairs of eyes looked at Ye Wudao.

Someone angrily said, "Lord Ye is so bold. He took so long to come to the important matter of the Ministry of Works!"

"Ye Wudao, you relied on the majesty of the emperor to suppress us before, and even contradicted the minister. Now you dare to be so negligent, which is a serious crime!"

"I ask the minister to dismiss Ye Wudao immediately!"

Ye Wudao smiled. There was nothing important here. The Ministry of Works was just repairing the fortifications. It should not be like other major departments, where there would be too many important things.
