Chapter 430: The clear soup here lacks water, and those evil people feed the roast chicken to the dog

In the imperial city!Tobe!

The Cangbu Division is very lively today. Lu Jishan knew that today's situation must be crowded with people, and he was afraid that there would be some mistakes that would mess up the number of books, so he summoned all the accountants in the family in advance, and brought them all to Cangbu Division today. inside.

In addition, His Majesty the Emperor was not at ease, so he sent Her Majesty the Empress who knew how to keep accounts as a helper. In fact, Lu Jishan knew in his heart that His Majesty the Emperor sent someone to supervise. In the end, the person responsible for the general account had to be the Cangbu Division Headquarters. The men and horses, and the accountants I brought.

At less than si o'clock in the morning, hundreds of chariots and horses came from the gate of the imperial city, bringing a little money and silk, and came to line up. Lu Jishan followed Li Yu's instruction and lined up for everyone first, and issued a number plate to each family. After the tossing, they began to come in one by one.

In the compound of Cangbu Division, there are six tables for the Eight Immortals, three of which are for money collection and registration, and the other three are for review and reconciliation. It was cleared up on the spot and handed over to those people sent by the imperial court to collect the money, all of them will be collected for the time being.

Lu Jishan led three or four officials to check around before and after running. He made acquaintances all the way, and greeted those who didn't know each other warmly. When he returned to the second courtyard of Cangbu Division, Lu Ji finally sat down to rest. For a moment, I was busy asking the people next to me;
"How many big households have you sent away? How much money did you charge to come in?"

"When I returned to the Langzhong, I had already received 130 silver coins and silk from six families, and each family took away thirty buckets of Wuliangye, and another fifteen buckets of immortality.

Wuliangye is temporarily charged at 27 coins per bucket, and Xianrenzui is also temporarily distributed at the amount of "[-] Guan".

Wuliangye was sold for a total of 3000 guan, and Xianrenzui received a total of 56 guan. The two incomes totaled more than 920 guan of silver and silk.

After the stipulated sales period expires, the major portals will report the number, which one has been sold and where to sell it, and then according to the records of the Ministry of Industry in the imperial court, another seventy dollars per bucket will be refunded two hundred miles away. "

Lu Jishan was shocked when he heard the number reported by his subordinates. Although he knew that the amount he tried to sell today was very large, he did not expect that less than half of the big households had already collected more than 7 guan. The separation is enough for His Majesty to solve the urgent need...

Lu Jishan asked calmly;

"Most of them are still waiting in line. If they are all received, how long will it take to finish?"

Qi reported to Langzhong, Xiaguan felt that I might not be able to get all of them today. If it was all over today, I might have to go to midnight, when the curfew starts, I am afraid that those who drink alcohol will not be able to go home and will live outside the gate of the imperial city. on the street. "

Lu Jishan pondered for a moment before speaking;
"In this way, you go to inform everyone, and say that even if it is midnight today, Canabu Secretary will ask everyone to take the wine back. Regarding the curfew, I will immediately enter the palace and go to His Majesty to solve the problem."

"The subordinate officer obeys the order and goes to deliver the message."

Lu Jishan dismissed the subordinate officials, sat for a while, drank a bowl of water to moisten his throat, got up and left, and went all the way to the upper study to inquire that His Majesty was at the Empress's place, so he came to the door of Her Majesty's bedroom to ask for an audience.

Not long after, the servant came out to give orders and was allowed to see him. Lu Jishan lifted a corner of his clothes and hurried into the main palace of Her Majesty the Empress. Seeing the Emperor talking and laughing with Her Majesty the Empress, Lu Jishan bowed his head to see;

"I pay my respects to His Majesty the Emperor, respectfully invite Jin'an, and greet Her Majesty the Empress, respectfully invite Fu'an."

Li Shimin responded with a smile;
"Ai Qing, please start without courtesy."

Empress Changsun also smiled and said;

"The doctor is welcome without courtesy."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Your Highness."

Li Shimin asked casually;
"Your Cangbu Division should be in full swing today, and Aiqing must be extremely busy, because when did you come to me, but what went wrong?"

"Your Majesty, there is nothing wrong with it. It is too cumbersome to check the amount of money and silks of each big family because there are too many big families here. It is almost half of the application time, so only 100 many.

There are still more than half of the big households who have not received the liquor inventory. While continuing to line up, the officials below reported that if everything is over, it may be midnight!
Worried that the drinkers would not be able to go home after the curfew, he advocated continuing tomorrow. The minister thought that those big households would come here with money excitedly today, and if they didn't get good wine today, it might not look good.

Therefore, I told you that all the big households who came to receive the wine must be properly arranged tonight, so that the money and silk that they brought would not have to be taken back again, so I wanted to report to His Majesty, and begged His Majesty to think of a perfect solution. "

Sitting in the study today, Li Shimin didn't care to read the memorandum. He was only thinking about the money. He thought that as long as the money goes into the treasury, he will immediately distribute all the money to counties in the world tomorrow. How many counties can be distributed? counties.

So he didn't have the mood to deal with other things, so he came to the queen's place to gossip and wait patiently for the results from Cangbu Division. Now because of the curfew, the matter will be delayed until tomorrow, but he doesn't want to stay for a while. Immediately speak to arrange;
"Don't worry, Aiqing. I will make arrangements for this matter. During the curfew tonight, all people who go to Cangbusi to grab a drink will be allowed to pass. They are not restricted by the curfew. Aiqing can rest assured.

By the way, I don't know how much Aiqing will deal with and how much money he will get, so I have an approximate amount in my heart. "

"Zunzhi, there are about 7 to [-] large households who have already taken away the liquor, and they got more than [-] but less than [-]."

Li Shimin was very happy to hear this number, and said with a smile;

"Okay, okay, I won't keep Aiqing, there are still a lot of things in Cangbu Division, Aiqing will go, the amount of money exchanged, Aiqing must be careful and careful, don't make any mistakes.

In addition, the money and silk of the big households must be carefully checked. It doesn't matter if you delay for a while, as long as everything is clear. "

"According to the decree, don't worry, Your Majesty, the masters sent by Her Royal Highness are responsible for the last check of accounts, and those masters of accounts brought by the minister's family are responsible for the second check.

The original team in Cangbu Division is responsible for the first pass of registration and bookkeeping and receiving money. These three steps are checked separately, and all the numbers are aligned. There will never be a mistake, and there will be no loss of consistent money. "

Li Shimin couldn't help applauding when he heard Lu Jishan arrange three checks and check the accounts;

"Okay! What a good way. Aiqing really made the arrangements clearly. I knew it was wise to choose Aiqing to sit in Cangbu Division. Aiqing really lived up to everyone's expectations. Aiqing has worked hard. After today, tomorrow I can rest at home for a good day Get a good night's sleep, tomorrow Aiqing won't have to come to Shu Ya to be on duty."

"According to the order, thank you for your majesty's concern. I am very grateful. Our warehouse department is overcrowded. I dare not delay, so please leave."

"allow."

"My minister retire."

Seeing Lu Jishan retreat, Li Shimin stood up, rubbed his hands and walked back and forth, muttering;

"Lu Aiqing said just now that most of them have not been finished, so more than 7 have already come in. If they are all finished, they should get about 20. If the imperial court takes half of the shares, there will be around [-], which is indeed a lot. Yes, but now that people are asking for money everywhere, this amount of money is still a drop in the bucket.

Sigh... It's still too little, if I can solve a little trouble if I give them all, I can last for a few more days, so that I can try my best to make it to the start of the auction, if not, I still don't dare to go to court..."

Empress Changsun and her husband have been husband and wife for more than ten years, of course they know what the husband is thinking about, and when the emperor comes back from another round, he will remind him in time;
"Your Majesty, those important ministers who participated last year are all upstarts, and they are your Majesty's confidantes, and their families are not well-off.
This time I try to sell liquor, although I don’t get much money, but I can share some back. Let’s make a living, not to mention that we are preparing to restart the Silk Road business, and we are arranging money affairs at the top, almost all of them are stretched. Well, His Majesty dare not use the money of those important ministers this time, so as not to discourage the loyalty of the ministers and accept His Majesty. "

Li Shimin heaved a long sigh and went back to sit down beside Empress Changsun, and said helplessly;
"That's right, Guanyin maidservant, you are right. I know exactly what those upstarts are like. The 20 guan that I took out last year is the foundation that I have rewarded them over the years. They are not rich and powerful, nor are they from aristocratic families. , and there is no precipitation, even last year's members almost ran out of those important ministers, and now they are waiting for the money, we can only bear it, we really can't hurt Their hearts go, alas...

Oh, Guanyin servant girl, we all forgot that there is still money in it, why does he need so much money for a child?
In his warehouse in Lantian, there is still a lot of money that has not been touched. If he is not short of money, he just opens his mouth and rewards him with a lot of money, hum!I'm a prodigal son, this time I won't give him his share, it's counted as his punishment for making a big move, I don't know about Chai Migui's evil..."

When Empress Changsun heard that the emperor took that evil deed as a punishment, it was a terrible crime, and she really wanted to add a crime, so she covered her mouth with a silk scarf and said with a smile;
"Your Majesty deducted his share money this time. Although it is not a big deal to him, I reckon that the wicked person will be sad and will not be able to eat at least two meals. Besides, he got the money back last year, and this year he did spend it. A lot of millet was exchanged to make wine, but not all of them were hidden, please learn from your majesty."

"Buying millet? How much does he spend on buying millet? It's not like I don't know how to settle accounts. As far as his wine-making millet is pulled back, it can be used for a long time and can produce a lot of spirits.

So Guanyin servant girl, don't listen to him crying about being poor, and in a few days, the trial sale of baijiu will be over, and those big households have tasted the sweetness, and if they don't participate, no one will ask for dirty wine in the future, so what is the business?
Those who participated got the sweetness, wouldn't they have to wait for him to kill him again, just like last year when dozens of important officials rushed to give him money,
Just wait, maidservant Guanyin, in less than ten days, he will get a lot of money back, and what happened last year will be repeated, but this time it will be replaced by aristocrats and wealthy families, rushing to give him money , Just like last year, we changed the soup without changing the medicine.

I reckon that this time he will get another few million pennies, at least twice as much as the ones he brought back last year. What does he want the money for, and he has no place to spend it, so he must be rewarding this one again. Well, it's not good to reward the one who shows off, it's pure prodigal stuff! "

Li Shimin was short of money, so he wanted to sell his house and tear it down. Thinking of Li Yu's name as Lord Mengchang, he always hated iron for being weak, and never felt happy.

"Your Majesty doesn't know something. In the letter that Nie Zhan sent me the day before yesterday, he also said that the price of millet has increased a little recently. Now he has to spend a lot more to buy millet, and he spends money everywhere on the construction of his village. The situation also made it difficult for him to parry."

Li Shimin immediately showed an expression that you've been fooled again, leaned over and spoke;

"Guanyin maidservant, how can you believe his words? His mouth is like an ass, and he just talks nonsense. He always talks about himself pitifully, and it seems that he will stop at the next meal. What he said Can you believe it?
He is just pretending to be poor and complaining about you. He knows that you are kind-hearted, so he just follows his tricks, so whenever something happens, he comes to you with a sad face.
Why didn't he come and talk to me?I don't listen to him at all, even if he has a lot of tongue, I don't take it seriously, don't listen to him complaining in the future, he lived in such a luxurious way that you have never seen?

Last night, I went to Shubao's house for a stroll, thinking to see if Lizhi was eating and drinking as usual these two days, but guess what, that Nie Zong, Lizhi, and Xiao Huaidao from Shubao's house, just the three of them Little man, he made a table full of stir-fried vegetables and served two roast chickens. Do you think they can finish the whole table?

And your girl, she didn't take a few bites of a chicken leg, and threw it to a black dog at her feet. Go and see, those two dogs are so round that they eat better than how many poor people eat many?
Lizhi's face was full of greasy food, she was afraid that I would take her back to the palace, she was so scared that she didn't dare to talk to me, she desperately got into the arms of that evil person, look, good daughter, she has only been there for a few days, and she has learned so much waste,
The palace hasn't paid out money for two months, and they're all so nervous that the soup is too watery. Your eldest daughter eats a whole chicken for herself, and half of it is fed to her black dog. What's the matter? You say this..."

Empress Changsun forced herself to endure a violent smile, and responded with her lips pursed;
"Your Majesty, don't be so angry, the body of the dragon is important, why should Your Majesty take care of the children's affairs, isn't it just a matter of eating?

The children are young, so it’s not a big deal to be greedy, and besides, didn’t that evil person also pack seven big chickens for His Majesty and bring them back, and the top ones are all big-headed..."
