Dress up as a hot farm wife, take care of her cubs and raise her husband to farm

As soon as the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month passes, the days fly by.

At this time in previous years, people would "besiege" the government offices to ask for food, but this year they won't. Everyone is busy buying new year's goods.

The grocery stores and markets in Fucheng are also more lively than in previous years.

Those who sell couplets, those who sell head flowers...you name it.

Compared with the busy people who are happy, the busy government offices are mixed with anger.

The outstanding accounts have been settled, and everyone was dumbfounded when they saw the final amount to be paid.

One million and seventy thousand taels. Over the years, the Northern Territory actually owed one million and seventy thousand taels.

This amount is comparable to the Liangyan treasury.

Li Hui saw that everyone was stunned, "Haha..." chuckled:

"With so much silver, half of the relief grain will be deducted every year to pay off the debt. Can someone help me figure it out? How much money should be deducted?"

Calculate?
Does this count?Is it clear?
It really corresponds to the saying, "It's not that I don't know, but I'm shocked when I calculate it."

One million and seventy thousand, even if you use all the bones and dregs to pay off the debt, you can't even pay it back!

Everyone is not stupid and knows that Li Hui is not taken advantage of.

Let him acknowledge this debt?Go ahead and dream!
Mou Haibin stepped forward, bowed his hands, and suggested:
"Sir, I will help you draw up a plan. We cannot repay this money, and we cannot afford it at all."

"Yes, yes, the state government has picked up all the belongings of everyone, but they can't even collect the [-] million snowflakes." Sun Dianli was still frightened.

He has a good relationship with the official Bai Dianli of the household, but he owes so much money. No matter how good the relationship is, it is useless. This will lead to beheading and confiscation of the house.

Everyone's eyes were turned to the household room, and the faces of several minor officials were slumped, each looking more innocent than the last.

Although all matters related to money are handled through the household, they are just fishy, ​​turtles, shrimps and crabs, and such a large amount of things will never fall on their heads.

No wonder the boss and Mr. Fan sent him, it turned out that they were... throwing people out to settle the score later!
Shen Jue didn't speak the whole time. He had guessed this would be the result when he asked Bai Dianli for the key.Anyone who can help has already reminded him. As for whether Fan Chengfang followed it or not, it has nothing to do with him.

Thinking of this, he cupped his hands and said:
"Sir, since we have already calculated it here, why not check all the accounts in the northern territory. Including salt tax, personal tax, carriage tax, etc. Although the state capital is poor, it can still collect the annual tax money before the bandits. Eighteen thousand, this one million and seventy thousand... I really don’t know how I owe it, and I want to find out."

The last sentence "I'll understand after death" made everyone suddenly realize.

Yes, everyone here counts, except Li Hui, everyone is suspected and must be investigated.

Once someone is involved, it is better to confess now and be lenient, so as not to regret it when the incident comes to light.To be honest, which one can withstand investigation?Even among the high-ranking officials in the capital, every one of them is not checked.Including relatives of the emperor.

When Li Hui saw this, he smiled and waved his hands and said:
"We must investigate, but to catch the thief and the king, we have to catch the biggest one. It's better to catch fish, turtles, shrimps, and crabs than to be useless and affect the overall situation. It's better for you to be united with me. Let's completely eliminate the cancer in the state capital. As for the For other small wounds, just heal them, don’t tear them and add more wounds.”

It’s so clearly stated, what else don’t you understand?They all nodded and started doing things.We are all foxes for thousands of years. Even though we know that Li Hui is not a fool, we have to play Liaozhai above board.

"Okay, since Mr. Li has this request, we will naturally go all out. There are still eight days until the New Year, so we all have to work harder and celebrate the New Year with peace of mind. I will not go home from today on."

After Shen Jue's statement, Mou Haibin and others also expressed that they would not go home and settle the accounts of the northern state capital for so many years.This is a big project and requires the cooperation of everyone.From this day on, the third class of yamen officials began to be busy.There is no distinction between fast class and soap class. If there is work, everyone does it together. If it is too busy, they will work in shifts.After the training in Huwei Mountain, everyone's relationship is much closer than before, and the differences between them have been reduced.

Under Shen Jue's deliberate guidance, the first thing the government office checked was salt. Many of the accounts were confused, and after more thorough investigation, they all pointed to the cabinet shop in the middle of West Street.

Everyone is familiar with this shop. It belongs to the Shan family, and the Shan family's industry cannot be underestimated in the northern cities.

The largest restaurant, Shun Xing Yuan, is owned by a single family.The largest bathhouse, Qingshuihang, is also owned by a single family.besides……

Ever since Fan Chengfang was kicked out of the government office, the Shan family has been under Cheng Xi's surveillance.The Shan family did not make any moves after that day, which naturally provided the government with an opportunity.In the clear day and in the clear day, Manager Xu of Shunxing Garden came out of the cabinet carrying salt under the eyes of the Yamen. This was a death-defying rhythm.

The officer stepped forward and pressed Manager Xu down. Not only did this man fail to understand current affairs, but he started making a lot of noise——

"Yu Liang, are you crazy? Do you dare to arrest me? Don't forget, your brother-in-law is working in Shunxing Garden, and I am - uh uh... uh uh..."

Liu Yuliang muffled his last words with his hands, and then twisted the person away with both the stolen goods and the stolen goods.The remaining officials entered the cabinet shop directly. After the Qing Dynasty, they began to search, and then arrested all the stewards and clerks of the cabinet shop, and put a seal on the door.

It only took a stick of incense to do it, it was so quick and easy that people had no time to react.

By the time Shan Chen found out, it was already too late.But he still didn't recognize the reality clearly and slapped the table and stared.

"What are you doing for food? Only now do you know that the Yamen is going to arrest someone? Where is Liu Yuliang? Why didn't he fart in advance?"

Because of Liu Yuliang, every time the Yamen took action, the Shan family would know about it in advance and restrain themselves.

Shan Chen's wife, Mrs. Xu, panicked when she heard that Xu Li had been arrested.Because that was her brother, the only son of the old Xu family.

"Dad, what should I do with my brother? The old Xu family is just a root, you can't just die without saving it."

"What a panic, my brother-in-law is still at the government office, and Shen Jue's."

Just when Shan Chen was about to send someone to the government office to find Shen Jue, the person who came to report the news said in a trembling voice:

"Old... Master, that seal was written by Mr. Shen. A while ago, his wife went to the jewelry shop and took all the jewelry given by Shopkeeper Hao and exchanged it for the cheapest ones. She also gave some silver."

"What?!" Shan Chen was shocked.

He was not stupid and knew that selling salt privately was a serious crime, so he and his brother-in-law took half of it and gave the remaining half to the governor.But the new Fu Yin has not gotten along with him so far.Before his brother-in-law left, he told him to stop after making the money.He was also preparing, but he didn't expect...

Oh, I understand, this Li Fuyin first sent his brother-in-law away from the mountain, and then took care of him behind.

Listening to Xu's cry, he was in a mess inside.

"His father..."

"To shut up!"

How could he take care of his elder brother-in-law anymore, since he was a Buddha himself? For this plan, he had to introduce two scapegoats, and then... (End of Chapter)
