063 Abandoned Official

"Epstein, Mitchellson... and others have committed crimes of embezzlement and dereliction of duty, with all the evidences, and are now hanged in public!"

On a gallows platform in the center of Rennes Municipal Square, Carl, wearing the Black Dragon Legion colonel uniform, announced in front of hundreds of onlookers, the list of administrative officials publicly executed for the first time since the Black Dragon Legion occupied Rennes.

As the announcement ended, several men wearing white prison uniforms were escorted up in horror.

After seeing Carl, the man in the lead seemed to know Carl's identity and shouted loudly to him: "I want to meet Lord Levi. My loyalty to Lord Levi is a world of insight. My crime of embezzlement and accruing money was done before Lord Levi entered Rennes. What I embezzled was the money from the French Constituent Assembly, and I did not greedy for Lord Levi for a penny.

I'm wronged!

I don't want to die!"

"I am also a loyal minister of Lord Li Wei. I will never make any mistakes again..."

In front of the gallows, the crying and begging for mercy were connected together, and it seemed to be quite unfair.

However, the onlookers of Rennes watched with relish and did not think that the trial was wrong.

Several bureaucrats who were taken to the gallows were also well-known figures in Rennes. Before Li Wei led his troops to capture Rennes, they were all "celebrities" who were corrupt and bribed and were ignorant of serious things.

Obviously, all Li Wei’s trial this time are typical...

As for these people, they committed crimes before Levi entered Rennes. The details of Levi's honest and conscientious work after Levi moved in were subconsciously ignored by the citizens of Rennes.

They came here just to watch the fun. As long as the person on the gallows is not themselves and their relatives and friends, the citizens will not care who died!

Not to mention that Li Wei was originally a notorious corrupt official, even if the person executed was a real honest official, the citizens would not care.

How could the lower-class citizens who are struggling under the food and clothing line all day to pay attention to the good or bad of the bureaucrats?

These officials on the gallows have a reputation as the result of Carl's group preaching in advance.

Carl looked at the prisoners tied up and were "sent" to the gallows with cold eyes.

He didn't say anything more because he knew that these people were indeed "unfairly accused".

They may have been corrupt officials, but after all, they hold important municipal positions. When Li Wei "enlightened" administrative officials, they were all bureaucrats within 100 places.

Since they were brainwashed and enlightened by Li Wei, these people naturally would not continue to embezzle bribes or even dereliction of duty.

Unfortunately, these people have no talent, but Li Wei's 100 administrative personnel have used up their quotas of "enlightenment" and need to free up extra quotas for truly talented people. These people were naturally screened out by Li Wei and became abandoned and useless people. They casually put several previous crimes on the gallows.

The public execution is just to warn civil servants in Rennes who have not been "intelligent" to not make small moves behind their backs. Their superiors have been executed. If they are really stupid, they can try it.

This is also the last contribution made by these incompetent corrupt officials.

Li Wei doesn't care whether the bureaucrats are corrupt or dereliction of duty, but the corrupt official Li Wei can't tolerate it, especially those who hold important positions, even if they are mediocre!

What is the secret rule of the officialdom that does less and does less mistakes, and does not do wrong is the same as Li Wei's words - death!

There are not a few people who have been ordered to be killed, and it is really not a big deal to execute a few incompetent bureaucrats.

What's more, they need to give up valuable "enlightenment" places.

Facts have proved that it is not that the higher the official position, the more talented the person is. When Li Wei enlightened administrative officials, he only registered their positions and the ranks of officials, and could not deepen his understanding of their personal abilities.

More than a month has passed, and with the supervision and reports of many "inspired" officials, Li Wei naturally also found out the basic information of these administrative officials under his command.

Under the premise that the number of administrative personnel brainwashing places is limited, Li Wei can only deal with those incompetent people and give up the position to those who are found in the future.

Because of the "enlightenment", the bureaucrats executed by the gallows did not embezzle and accept bribes after Li Wei entered. However, when they faced government affairs, they always pushed them as much as possible, and even played Tai Chi with other departments. They used the official methods and connections to be perfect, so they didn't do serious things!

If it weren't for the loyalty of the bureaucrats who Li Wei had entrusted, and did not hide much when Li Wei asked, Li Wei was still kept in the dark.

What Li Wei needs now is not a master of interpersonal communication in the officialdom, but an administrative official who can do practical things and be down-to-earth and capable.

As a top leader who decides one's words, what Li Wei needs most is the old fry in the officialdom!

This kind of official is very good at being a human being, so other people's ranks and even superiors rarely criticize him. He makes as much money as others do nothing, which can easily lead to the whole official atmosphere.

Li Wei naturally cannot keep such a person.

It was already a kind and righteous act to hang them and leave a whole body.

Several bureaucrats abandoned by Li Wei are being executed outside, but Li Wei meets a spy leader who has just been arrested in the high-level office of the city government.

Oh, by the way, the other party’s apparent identity is a very successful businessman.

A businessman who makes a fortune by making profits from second-hand middlemen.

This kind of businessman does not have a fixed transaction. Basically, he buys whatever city lacks and sells it to the city.

Good luck, but the profit is still considerable.

Of course, such middlemen traveling around the world are also very easy to find out information, and are considered an important part of the crude espionage system of this era.

If the merchant named Manid had not bribed the Black Dragon Legion soldiers in the guard barracks in order to find out the news, Li Wei would not have discovered the other party.

Manid never expected that he was already very cautious and just bought a small guard. The money given was enough for the young man to live the rest of his life without worrying about food and clothing, and he would marry a woman and have a baby...

However, bribing a pawn so heavily made Manid cheat...

Obviously, people outside didn't know that the Black Dragon Legion was brainwashed by Li Wei to the point where he was willing to die for him.

Li Wei has not discovered such examples of bribing soldiers or low-level officers before, but this time Manide was caught is not an ordinary informant, but a spy leader who belonged to Paris!
