After saying that, he smiled and looked around.

Everyone followed his vivid rhythm and looked at him intently, as if they were the ones interviewing Zhuo Jing. They were so immersed in it that they just waited for Zhuo Jing's answer.

That’s the benefit of a question-and-answer interview.

It seems to be just a slight change in form.

However, it makes people feel as if they are in the scene and have a strong sense of involvement. Therefore, the effect of this news in their consciousness is naturally incomparable to that of ordinary narrative articles.

Even the old newspaper reader who used to make a living as a storyteller couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "The young emperor who created this newspaper... and all these bizarre things is truly a talent!"

I used to tell stories and keep storybooks.

I've worn my lips out from talking so much, but the results are still not as good as they are now!

I thought so.

He didn't dare to stop talking, and continued to read out the following content while the iron was hot: "After listening to Lord Zhang's question, Lord Zhuo answered: This inspection tour on behalf of the emperor is not done at will. From the beginning, I was heading directly for these four mines!"

"Ever since Your Majesty began planning to open a mine and develop anthracite coal, I have been secretly monitoring the situation at Your Majesty's behest. Fortunately, I uncovered widespread corruption at the Datong Mine. Furious, Your Majesty not only punished the responsible personnel and officials involved in the Datong Mine, but also personally inspected the account books of all mines."

"After reading these account books."

"Your Majesty then pulled out a few books and handed them to me, asking me to examine them in detail. These account books weren't even the master ledgers for the Huainan, Huaibei, Wuchang, and Yuanzhou mines! They were the individual ledgers for one or more of the mines!"

"At first, I simply thought His Majesty was furious and wanted to conduct a thorough investigation."

"But as we investigated all the way, we realized something was amiss. These account books were accurate. Every time Your Majesty checked, there were problems in every place you pulled out. And each of these problems was concealed more thoroughly than the last!"

The old man on the platform described the contents of the newspaper vividly.

The newspaper said it was a question-and-answer interview.

But in fact, the content has been polished by Zhuo Jing and a group of experienced UC shock department editors in the media department.

It sounds smooth and silky at this time.

Ups and downs, twists and turns, shocking moments... the story was vividly and concisely written on the page. Even the elderly newspaper reader, who had been warned to keep a pace earlier, took a deep breath and expressed his amazement: "Just by... looking at the accounts, a major corruption case was uncovered!?"

The same was true for everyone in the audience.

Even Zhan Hui and Fu Youwen, two experienced officials, were all shocked with their eyes and mouths wide open:

Especially Fu Youwen, who had been in charge of the Ministry of Revenue for many years and was now the head of the Ministry of Revenue, felt like a thousand horses were galloping through his heart: "No... this is also possible!?"

He knows the most about accounting matters. There are a lot of tricks involved, and hidden means and methods are endless. Keeping the accounts clean is just the most basic thing!

If only looking at the account books could pinpoint corruption so accurately...

The three words "Fu Youwen" were written backwards!

Thinking of this, Fu Youwen's face changed slightly, and he quickly took advantage of the chaos to curse in the crowd: "Take it back, take it back. I just thought about it in my mind and didn't say it out loud. It doesn't count!"

The subconscious thoughts that appeared in his mind were almost unnecessary. These thoughts went around in his mind...

Fu Youwen finally reacted:

What the hell is writing it upside down?! His Majesty has already done everything by looking at the account books! What's the point of writing the name upside down?
