The days when I ransacked the house in Jinyiwei

Chapter 84

Chang Feng carefully checked the accounts and the amount of gold and silver with his brothers.

The verification is correct, in order to prevent the three brothers of the Wan family from concealing something.He spent another day with Fatty Xu and the others, investigating Bazang.

In the end, only more than 300 taels of silver were found on the eave tiles of Wanfu.

The 300 taels of silver was not deliberately concealed by Wantong.Simply forgot.

After sorting out the accounts and affixing seals on all the property, Chang Feng and Fatty Xu returned to Jinyiwei to return to their orders.

Zhu Ji looked at the account books carefully.When he saw the total of Zhese 42 taels, he was also taken aback: "The Wan family can really earn money."

Chang Feng remained silent.He knew that Zhu Ji didn't like his subordinates interrupting.

Zhu Ji closed the account books together: "From today on, Jinyiwei has established a new rule. For the proceeds from house raids, one out of [-] will be collected in the private treasury of the guard."

It's not that Zhu Ji became greedy.

Jin Yiwei has 13 staff, but in the [-] provinces of the two capitals, there are [-] eyes and ears without staff.

These eyes and ears, the imperial court does not pay money.They can't do it for nothing.

It takes money to buy Tatars, Wala, Jurchen, and Annan to collect intelligence on the enemy.

Paoze will be rewarded for meritorious service, and he will be given soup and medicine for injury.

When you go out on secret errands, you need to spend money on eating, drinking, sleeping, and traveling.

Because it is a secret errand, it is impossible to make a list and ask the household department to write it off.

In the words of later generations, Jinyiwei has no financial allocation for a large part of its unit expenditure.

This is not a unique situation of the secret service agencies of the Ming Dynasty.

In the CIA of later generations, ten places in the world are on fire, nine of them are set by it, and the remaining one is not set by it, but it will pour oil on the fire.

The CIA's funding does not rely solely on appropriations.In the 70s and [-]s, the CIA even did dirty things to raise funds by selling white goods.

In short, Jinyiwei has had private stocks since the Hongwu Dynasty.

When Vantone was in charge of Jinyiwei, the income from the private treasury was often obtained by extorting officials and wealthy households.

Zhu Ji is a man with a bottom line, and he doesn't bother to engage in extortion.I can only focus on the stolen money obtained from the house raids.

One out of twenty is not too much.It's not to satisfy selfish desires, it's for business.

Chang Feng cupped his hands: "Yes. Keep in mind the commander's order, one out of twenty."

Zhu Ji then ordered: "This man Wantong is really ridiculous. The accumulated grain, pepper, and sumac are borrowed from the warehouse of the user department for storage."

"It also saves us from handing over to the household department."

"By the way, the copied gems, oriental beads, animal skins, jewelry, antique calligraphy and paintings, and other miscellaneous items will all be handed over to the inner transport warehouse and dedicated to the emperor."

At dawn the next day, Chang Feng first asked his subordinates to transport 2 taels of cash back to Jinyiwei's private treasury.He also sent people to make an appointment with the Ministry of Household Affairs and the internal officials to hand over the property in Wanfu.

Because the 40 taels of Zheshi was too large, Li Min, Minister of the Household Department, came in person.

Li Min is a virtuous minister. Last year, he was promoted to the household department, thanks to Wynn's recommendation.

When Li Min saw Chang Feng, he ignored etiquette and took Chang Feng's hand with both hands: "Chang Qianhu, you helped the household department solve a big problem!"

Whenever a new emperor ascends the throne, it has become a rule that the world's money and food should be exempted to buy people's hearts.

Emperor Hongzhi also wanted to free up money and food.The household department is worrying about the emptiness of the funds, and the general exemption of money and food has no confidence.

I didn't expect to make a huge fortune out of thin air.

Chang Feng knew that Li Min had a good relationship with Wynn, and Li Min also regarded him as his own.

Chang Feng lowered his voice: "Don't worry, Li Butang. This is just the first sum of stolen money that Jin Yiwei handed over to the household department. In a few days, there will be a steady stream of big money handed over to the household department."

Li Min said: "Wonderful! Your Majesty first ascended the Great Treasure, and clarified the administration of officials. The dirty wealth of those corrupt officials should be taken from the people and used by the people!"

It was Li Guang who handed over the treasures to the internal officials.

It took Chang Feng a whole day to complete the handover of the huge amount of property with Li Min and Li Guang.

The first errand that Chang Feng received in Xinchao was finished.

There was hardly any difficulty in the errand.The main reason is that the three Wan brothers are too cooperative.

When Chang Feng was about to leave Wanfu, Shi Wenyi, who had just raised the general flag, walked up to him.

Shi Wenyi said in a low voice: "Master Chang, I saw Eunuch Li put a big gem into the sleeve of his robe during the handover."

Chang Feng frowned, and thought: Li Guang is the imposing seal of the official supervisor, who is about to enter the ceremonial supervisor as a pen, isn't it a bit too lowly?
Want to be greedy for a box of gems.What's the deal with stealing a piece?What's the difference with the little thieves on the street?
Li Guang is such a person who has no courage and is easy to take advantage of.

Chang Feng told Shi Wenyi: "Don't spread this matter to outsiders. It's just a gem. There's no need for Jin Yiwei and the internal officials to fall out."

It was dusk.After a busy day, Chang Feng plans to go to Fuxingyuan to buy some sauced meat, and then go home to have a good dinner with Xiaoyan and Tangtang.Then he slapped Yan severely, and slept beautifully.

As soon as he left the gate of Wanfu, he met Liu Jin.

Liu Jin cupped his hands towards Chang Feng: "Chang Qianhu. Eunuch Huai En invites your family to the outer house for dinner."

With the help of changing the dynasty, not only Chang Feng was promoted.Liu Jin has also been promoted from the eighth-class fire master to the sixth-class book, and his career is at the sixth rank.

Chang Feng said: "Success. I'm afraid that the old man will be too busy after returning to Beijing. He hasn't dared to go to the house to bother him yet."

"I'll go home to pick up Jiannei and Sister Sister."

"Jiannei" is a word that has been criticized by later generations of pastoral female boxers.

In fact, it is the lack of culture of rural female boxers.The word "chee nei" does not mean "my cheap wife".

"Cheap" refers to the man himself, a kind of modesty.

In the same way, Zhuojing's "zhuo" is also a humble name for ancient men.

Chang Feng returned home, picked up Liu Xiaoyan and Tangtang, and came to Wynn's outer house.

Seeing Wynn, Tangtang jumped into his arms directly: "Fat grandpa, fat grandpa, what can I treat Tangtang to eat tonight?"

Chang Feng hurriedly said: "Tangtang, don't be rude."

Wynn said with a smile: "it's okay. I have long regarded Tangtang as my own granddaughter! You will call me after Tangtang, don't call me father-in-law. Just call me grandpa. "

Chang Feng's first reaction was: This old man took advantage of me.

Then I thought about it again: I don't seem to suffer any disadvantages if I recognize the inner minister of Ming Dynasty, and the shopkeepers of Jingying, Tuanying, and Changwei are gods.

After all, this godfather still has a certain status in the court.

Chang Feng quickly knelt down: "Grandfather, from today onwards you treat me as your own grandson! My grandson will definitely respect you from now on, and my grandson will take care of you!"

At the critical moment, Liu Xiaoyan, who is usually a bit aggressive, did not lose the chain.She made a Wanfu salute: "The grandson's daughter-in-law has seen Grandpa with a smile."

Wynn smiled from ear to ear with a fat face: "Okay, okay! Liu Jin, the meal is ready. I want to have a good drink with my grandson, granddaughter, and grandson-in-law. "

The four of them entered the dining room, and just as they were about to move their chopsticks, Liu Jin said, "Elder-in-law, please see Wan An."

Wynn said: "It's just in time. I'm just looking for him. The female relatives can't eat at the same table with him. Liu Jin, let the kitchen make another table of dishes, and take Tangtang and Xiaoyan to eat in the garden pavilion. "

Chang Feng also got up: "Grandfather, I will also resign."

Wynn waved his hand: "You don't have to go. Just stay here. "
