Daming: I help my wife be the empress

Chapter 348 Issuing Accounting Certificates and Seizing the Office of the Household Department!
"I have two solutions." Hao Guangming said, "One, you use a few more mobile phones and ask someone to help take pictures of all the accounts of the account department, and then bring them to me to ask someone to check, organize, accounting.

However, this method is not easy to operate, and it will be dangerous on our side. "

Aimee Zhu is not a novice who doesn't understand anything now.

She knew that in the matter of checking the accounts, the accounting as the last step is the easiest, and the real rare thing is the first two steps, that is, checking and sorting out.

And if Hao Guangming wants to do this on the other side, there is indeed a greater possibility of being targeted and suspected.

If her affairs are exposed to later generations, she doesn't know what will happen.

At least things will no longer be controlled by her and Hao Guangming.

This is what she does not want to see.

Ma Shiying and Xie Xuelong below were shocked when they heard this - they never thought that the son-in-law could help the princess to check the accounts.

But when you think about it, it makes sense.

After all, the son-in-law has brought so many miraculous things, so what's the point of checking the accounts?

The son-in-law said it was dangerous, but the two couldn't understand it.They couldn't help thinking to themselves: Could it be that the son-in-law violated the rules of heaven by interfering too much in ordinary affairs?
When the two of them were guessing wildly, they heard Auntie Zhu ask: "What about the second method?"

"The second way is to rely on your strength." Hao Guangming said, "There should be a lot of shops in Nanjing, right? The accountants and shopkeepers in the shops should know how to check the account books and calculate the accounts, right?

Since there are not enough officials who know how to check accounts in the imperial court, why not recruit or hire a group of accountants and shopkeepers from the people?

Of course, if you are not in a hurry, I suggest you take this opportunity to take control of the accountant in the entire Nanjing city by means of examinations and certification.

On the one hand, this will help you select talents who manage accounts and settle accounts, and on the other hand, it will be convenient for you to recruit these people again when you check other accounts in the future. "

After hearing these words, Auntie Zhu couldn't help but her eyes lit up.

Ma Shiying and Xie Xuelong below all showed astonishment.

Immediately, Xie Xuelong couldn't help but said: "Jianguo, this matter is absolutely impossible—how can the private accounting office handle the imperial court's accounts?"

Although Ma Shiying also felt that this move would pose a great threat to the officials of Ming Dynasty, but thinking about all the unusual things about Aimee Zhu, she finally restrained herself from speaking.

Sure enough, Auntie Zhu said: "This matter benefits the country and the people, there is nothing wrong with it. In addition, this matter is not something Xie Qing should take care of, so don't say more."

Hao Guangming said: "Da Ming will usher in unprecedented changes and a brand new era.

If you still want to stay in the officialdom of Ming Dynasty and do things for Ming Dynasty, you should work hard to learn to adapt and make progress, instead of being so stubborn that you reject new things. "

After hearing what the couple said, Xie Xuelong could only smile wryly, and said no more.

Hao Guangming said: "In order to save time, you can skip the exam first, and directly issue a first-level accounting certificate to accountants in Nanjing City who are willing to be recruited, to show the court's recognition of them.

At the same time, take advantage of this opportunity to enter their information for easy management.

Then a group of accountants was selected from them, divided into two groups, and the accounts of the household department were checked successively in the two courtyards.

In this way, a small number of accountants can be avoided, and the number of review times can also be reduced.

If everything goes well, you should be able to check the accounts of your household department in a few days. "

Aunt Zhu said, "What do Ma Qing think of this method?"

Ma Shiying was fascinated by Hao Guangming's words just now, and immediately praised: "What the son-in-law said is really a good strategy!"

"Then the matter of checking the accounts of the household department will be handled according to this policy." Zhu Wei made a decision.

Hao Guangming added: "The top priority is that you need to send the imperial guards to seal up the accounts of the account department and strictly guard the bank treasury.

In addition, the matter of recruiting accountants in the city can also be handed over to the soldiers of the first town of the Imperial Guard.

The soldiers and horses in this town have been with you and Hong Niangzi the longest, so the literacy rate should not be low, right?
Before that, they were guarding in Nanjing, and they are the most familiar with the people, so it is most suitable for them to handle it. "

Aunt Zhu nodded when she heard that, and immediately took out the walkie-talkie to contact Hong Niangzi, and called the first guard of the Imperial Guard.

Before Aunt Zhu came to Nanjing, the task of the first town of the imperial guards was mainly to guard the palace, train the newly formed Nanjing garrison, and patrol the streets in the city to monitor public security.

Now that Aimee Zhu is here with the Imperial Forest Army and the Second Town of the Imperial Guard Army, the task of the first town of the Imperial Guard Army is naturally much lighter.

Ma Shiying and Xie Xuelong also bid farewell and left at this time—besides what Aimee Zhu told them, they had many other things to do, and they were very busy, so it was not good for them to stay in Jinshen Hall.

Hao Guangming and Zhu Yuxi continued to discuss the matter of checking accounts.

"You can pay the accountants recruited by the imperial court. The first time it is considered a forced employment, but they will scramble to apply for the recruitment in the future.

In addition, when they are called up, they can be taught the more advanced method of double-entry bookkeeping.

Then select those who learned it first and divide them into a group, and let them use the newly learned double-entry bookkeeping method to re-record the accounts of the household department.

As for the other group, they use their usual bookkeeping methods to record and calculate.

Of course, you can no longer use the journal to keep accounts—I have seen that in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, that is, at your time, there were actually quite advanced bookkeeping methods.

For example, the "four-pillar inventory" has existed since the Tang and Song Dynasties, and was listed as the official accounting method in the Song Dynasty.

Another example is the "Longmen account" which was developed in the Ming Dynasty, and the "Sijiao account" which appeared in the late Ming Dynasty.

The latter two are actually double-entry bookkeeping.

However, what kind of bookkeeping method is used by the Nanjing household department can only be found out after checking the account books. "

Auntie Zhu nodded after hearing this, and then couldn't help touching her forehead.

She didn't expect that there would be so many talks about just checking the accounts.

It can be seen that governing a country is indeed an extremely difficult thing.

Fortunately, she has Hao Guangming to help, otherwise, even if she becomes an empress, she will be trapped in one net after another, like a deep quagmire, and it is difficult to break out...

Household Yamen.

After welcoming Aunt Zhu into the Forbidden City, many officials remained relatively excited.

Officials in other departments probably still feel uneasy, but officials in the Ministry of Household Affairs do not.

They are the ones who rely on their real skills to eat the rice of the Ministry of Household Affairs, especially the subordinate officials, who are all "technical personnel". No matter who is going to sit on the dragon chair, they have to use them.

Without them, the yamen of the household department would not be able to turn around and would fail.

So what are they worried about?

You should be excited and excited - the princess is so good at fighting, she should win many battles in the future, right?If you win a battle, you will be seized, so surely a large part of the seized will be handed over to the household department for management, right?

Also, the princess seems to like to raid the house.

How about ransacking the house, after all, part of the property obtained from the raiding should be given to the Ministry of Household Management, right?
And doesn't this mean that they can eat their stomachs round and smooth?
No, at this time, some small officials from the Ministry of Households were discussing the benefits of having a new owner in Nanjing City in their respective rooms.

"In the past half a year, when Hongguang Puppet Emperor was in power, our household department was really suffering.

Not only have to deal with people who come to ask for money from the other side, but the local government either fails to collect taxes or taxes, or withholds them.

In the end, the ones that were released to the warehouse of our household department only cost eight or nine million taels of silver a year.

With such a small amount of money, even if we only share 100 million taels of hard work, it will be very conspicuous.

However, what's the use of 100 million taels? Even if you don't show filial piety to those elders, it's estimated that less than 100 taels will fall into the hands of the people below us.

With this little money, you can't even enter the gate of the oiran on the Qinhuai River, and it's not enough to support an outer room. What's the use? "

"Isn't it?" Another little official answered, and immediately said excitedly: "But the princess is here, our life will be easier, and life will have something to look forward to."

"Absolutely," answered a small official, "A few days ago, I searched those few houses. When I passed by, I took a quick look, and estimated that one family confiscated at least one million taels of silver.

Presumably the princess just asked Wang Ge to go to Jinshen Palace to see her, because she wanted to ask Wang Ge how to use the money.

As for Wang Ge's old work, don't we feel relieved?It may be said that this batch of money will eventually fall into our household department, and none of it will flow outside. "

Thinking that there will be a big job to be done soon, the small officials in the duty room couldn't help laughing and gearing up.

When the few people were laughing happily, they heard the ground tremble slightly, and then there were shocking and angry shouts from outside.

"What are you going to do?"

"This is the yamen of the household department, no trespassing allowed!"

"Didn't you hear clearly, this is Hubu!"

"···"

A rough voice said, "What you're looking for is the Household Department Yamen—by sealing the imperial decree, you can seal the Household Department Yamen.

All the personnel are under house arrest, and those who are not in the Yamen are all arrested and placed under house arrest together.

All accounts and warehouses are ordered to be sealed up. Anyone who dares to obstruct or damage the accounts will be killed without mercy! "

And at the same time that the rough voice read the decree aloud, groups of imperial guards wearing flying saucer hats and plate armor rushed to the duty rooms of the household department yamen, and shrank the officials and petty officials in the rooms one by one. One was pulled out.

"what are you doing?!"

A captain of the Imperial Guard suddenly shouted loudly.

It was a small official who hurriedly hid a book in his arms in the duty room, but was seen by the sharp-eyed captain of the Imperial Guard.

He went over and kicked the little official to the ground, and searched out his private account books.

He threw it out again and shouted: "Take off his clothes and search him carefully!"
