Chapter 2726: Chapter 2726: Just Pretend Nothing Happened

"Damn thing, wanting to curry favor with the royal court, but not notifying this Master Shao first, who do they think they are? Daring to tread on this Master Shao’s head!"

He only learned this morning when he went to the Ministry of Revenue to donate money that several major clans, in addition to donating money, also purchased a considerable amount of grain and handed it over to the Ministry of Revenue together.

Isn’t this just scheming against him? Something he did not do, others did, and if this matter reaches the ears of the two princes, how can the Ye Family still have a standing?

Although there weren’t many families donating grain, as long as the grain donors did not include the Ye Family, it was unacceptable.

To show his stance, he personally went to donate money, just wanting the people of Daqing Kingdom to see that the Ye Family is not merely earning the people’s money without gratitude.

However, what he saw was the Minister of Revenue cheerfully instructing people to bring in the grain donated by some major clans.

"Have you investigated? Who started it?"

He coldly glanced at the attendant standing beside him and asked.

He wanted to see clearly which family initiated this grain donation. If it were just him doing it, that would be one thing, but daring not to notify him was not just disregarding him but was also maliciously intended!

Several hundred thousand taels of silver couldn’t fill too many boxes, but grain was different; casually buying some back would take many carts, easily visible to the people.

Especially since the major clans that donated grain even planted flags, fearing others might claim credit for their deeds.

"Reporting to the Family Head, it’s been ascertained that it was Patriarch Jin and Patriarch Gou who initiated it, ordering their subordinates to purchase the grain first." The servant replied respectfully.

"Patriarch Jin, Patriarch Gou!"

The Head of the Ye Family grinded his teeth, his face full of disdain.

Those two good-for-nothing individuals, seeking to stand out, why did they have to involve other major clans?

Couldn’t they discreetly send the grain when the citizens of the capital couldn’t see it, instead of causing a spectacle when they are all gathered around, never disliking making a scene?

"Have those two sent anyone to the residence recently?" he asked.

If someone had come, but the good-hearted reminder was ignored by those below, it would still be understandable, but if they couldn’t even think of him, it would be more than just something to verbally criticize.

"Reporting to the Family Head, no one came. The Jin Family and the Gou Family have no ties with our Ye Family," the servant responded.

Those two heads kept to themselves, where would they come to the Ye Family, and their own family head was so arrogant that even if those two heads came personally, he would probably find an excuse to avoid seeing them.

"The small ones found out that the donation of grain was led by the Jin Family and the Gou Family, but other family heads just saw those two collecting grain and guessed they were planning to donate, so they followed suit to collect."

"Useless!"

Hearing this, the Head of the Ye Family was instantly enraged.

"What use do I have for these useless people? At the crucial moment, they can’t assist at all, does every task need me to personally handle it?"

Upon seeing those two collecting grain, didn’t those below know what to do?

A significant sum of money was donated, wouldn’t the little cost of grain collection be insignificant? Even if they couldn’t make the decision, they should have reported it to him, asking for his opinion, right?

Yet those below didn’t even bother to report; it was as if nothing happened, simply outrageous!

"Did none of our people receive the message?" he demanded.
