Chapter 160: Yang Deli Niu Pen
Du He returned with three servants.
"I've seen Lang Jun!"
Du He's face was happy, "The cheap slave eats well and sleeps well in Mars Bay, just because there is no one around Lang Jun to serve him." After getting the news that he came back to serve Lang Jun, the cheap slave was overjoyed, and he couldn't wait to fly with wings......"
He said these words endlessly, one pair of eyebrows for a while, one high and one low......
In addition to Du He, there was a cook.
"I've seen Lang Jun."
The cook's name is Cao Er, and he is a little strong, but he also looks like a cook.
Jia Ping'an said: "Go back and let your cousin teach you cooking." ”
Cao Er knelt down happily and said, "Thank you Langjun!" ”
The one who does chores is called Song Buchu, and he looks burly and powerful.
The corners of Jia Ping'an's mouth twitched, "Your name...... Is there a reason? ”
Song did not say angrily: "When I gave birth to a cheap slave, there were three brothers in the family, and the family wanted to give away the cheap slave, who knew that no one wanted it...... It's called Song Buchu. ”
Wonderful!
There was also a maid who came, sixteen years old, and an ordinary appearance.
"Nu Hongyan, I've seen Lang Jun."
"Each performs his own duties and does his own thing, and there will naturally be what he should have." Jia Ping'an thought for a while, "There is no need to call yourself a cheap slave or something, it is still an ordinary name." ”
"Lang Jun ......"
In an instant, the eyes of several of the servants lit up.
There were four more people in the family, and it was immediately lively.
Ah Fu lay on the side, enjoying the horses and chickens, while watching the newcomers busy.
When the door was about to close, Yang Deli came back in a hurry.
"How are you doing in the warehouse these days?"
"Okay." Yang Deli washed his face and said happily: "In the past few days, I have used the method of accounting you taught me to slowly re-check the things in the warehouse...... It's tiring, but it's fun. ”
That's what it feels like to be fulfilled.
Not bad.
Jia Ping'an felt that such a cousin was more vivid.
The next morning, because there were more servants in the house, there was a lot of movement.
Jia Ping'an practiced knives, Cao Er cooked, Hongyan tidied up Jia Ping'an's room, and Song was not out chopping wood......
Well organized!
But what about Du He?
“…… After that, I will wait here, and I will ask Fang Zheng to take care of it. ”
"You're ......"
The voices of Du He and Jiang Rong came from outside.
Jia Ping'an nodded, feeling that Du He took the initiative to do things, and as soon as he came, he knew that he would greet Fang Zheng first, and then it would be convenient to deal with something.
After breakfast, the two brothers went to the government and told Du He to be optimistic about Ah Fu.
"Lang Jun rest assured."
Du He smiled, and his personable appearance reminded Jia Ping'an of his previous identity, official!
Turning around, Du He couldn't help but laugh when he saw Ah Fu lying by the door, with a simple look on his face.
"Lang Jun is really different. Other people's families raise cats and dogs, but Lang Jun raises fierce iron-eating beasts......"
He was just about to close the door when out of the corner of his eye he saw something black and white rolling out......
"Ah Fu is out!"
"Second, get the chickens and ducks out! Take care of the dog, and then let the dog scare Ah Fu, and the old lady will slaughter it! ”
Immediately there was a boiling outside.
……
Yang Su, the head of the household, entered the duty room slowly, sat down tremblingly, and then sighed.
He is old, his health is not very good, and he has been taking medicine to recuperate recently.
"Yang Shangshu."
The squire and the various tribes came.
Yang Su bowed his head, and after everyone sat down, he first said some words of encouragement, and then entered the topic.
"This is approaching the end of the year, and when I look back at the Chaozhong and His Majesty, I want a year's total account of income and expenditure, how much has been released, how much has been collected, and how much is left......"
Yang Su's eyes were more fierce, "This is a major national matter, we must calculate it clearly, if anyone is negligent and causes mistakes, and if someone has itchy hands and wants to take something...... Severe punishment will not be loaned! ”
"Ahem, ahem!" He coughed, a look of pain in his eyes.
Everyone quickly got up and responded.
Yang Su gasped for a few moments, and said to Cangbu Langzhong to Changlin: "The warehouse is in charge of the grain and grass in the army, and the officials' salaries are distributed, and they have to manage the regular closing of the position...... There are many things, and you have to work harder. ”
Xiang Changlin smiled and said: "Yang Shangshu can rest assured, the whole warehouse will work together, and it will definitely be able to calculate clearly." ”
Yang Su took a deep breath and felt more comfortable in his throat, "That...... Jia Ping'an's cousin is in the warehouse, what is strange? ”
Belch!
Everyone had a strange look on their faces.
It stands to reason that a small official can't get into the eyes of these big guys, but he can't stand it from being the cousin of the broom star! No, even Yang Su was worried that Yang Deli would bring disaster to Kurabe.
Xiang Changlin stroked his slender beard, "That person is serious. ”
Yang Su nodded, "That's good." ”
Later, Xiang Changlin returned to the warehouse and convened his subordinates to discuss the meeting.
"There are a lot of things that our warehouse manages, and there are countless money and food every day, the first thing is to take care of your own hands, don't stretch them out. The second is to be serious! Conscientious! Seriously! ”
Everyone responded, Ji Shi Yanshuo got up and said: "Xiang Langzhong, because of His Majesty's accession to the throne this year, there are more rewards, and it will take more time to count." ”
Ji Shi is the accounting of the warehouse department, which is responsible for the statistical accounting of the entry and exit of various money and grain.
The warehouse department is such a history, so even Xiang Changlin is a little more tolerant, "It's good if you don't make mistakes." ”
Later, Yan Shuo returned to his duty room and called a few Ling Shi to assist him in accounting.
"Strict history." One made Shi smile and said: "Then Yang Deli is also settling accounts, he has remembered the money and food in and out every day, and he has been calculating the accounts in and out of the second half of the year in the past few days, saying that he has to know ...... in his heart."
This is a job that robbed Yan Shuo!
Everyone is a small official, but because of the different directions of responsibility, the respect and humility are also different.
Yan Shuo naturally wants to be superior, so someone gives him a small report to please him.
Yan Shuo raised his head and frowned; "Do things!"
"Yes."
……
Zhanggu is the lowest level of the small official, taking care of the warehouse, plus doing chores.
There are four palms in the warehouse, and in their spare time, everyone is resting and chatting, but the crackling abacus inside is a little noisy.
"This man...... Accounting has nothing to do with him, he has to calculate it again. You say he's drilling camp, but it's really strange for this person to see that Lang Zhong is all wooden. ”
"Isn't that strange? When I was having dinner yesterday, someone ate half of the leftovers, and you didn't see his eyes, and he was grief-stricken! Hahahaha! ”
"Hahahaha!"
The crowd burst out laughing.
Three days later.
Yan Shuo and others made the accounts of Baiguan Lumi and summoned the officials to Changlin to discuss the matter.
"This accounting is timely, Shangshu said, the warehouse is effective, and it is well done!" smiled and groaned at Changlin, and only then did he get Yang Su's praise, which made him feel very good.
Yan Shuo got up and said, "Where can someone do it?" It's all thanks to everyone. ”
The most taboo thing in officialdom is to eat alone, everyone has the credit, everyone carries the sedan chair, hello, I am good, everyone is good.
The officials all smiled, knowing that this year was passed, and there would be some rewards if they didn't get it right at the end of the year.
Xiang Changlin praised them a few words, and was about to let them disperse, when he saw Yang Deli hesitating, and then got up......
"Xiang Langzhong, ...... here" Yang Deli took out an account book, "Something is wrong here." ”
Xiang Changlin sighed, "What's the matter?" ”
Yan Shuo's face darkened.
The faces of those little officials are not very good-looking.
As soon as everyone was praised by Shangguan, you came out and said something wrong, this is adding to people's blockage!
Yang Deli opened the account book he made, "Xiang Langzhong, I found that the loss of Lu rice of hundreds of officials is wrong!" ”
Xiang Changlin hummed, and said a little casually: "What's wrong?" ”
There is a loss in warehouse storage, this is common sense, and the loss of the household has been maintained on a line, which is very stable.
Yang Deli said: "The loss of grain in the warehouse mostly occurs when it is turned over and transported in and out, but it is found that the loss is higher, and the loss of the rice warehouse is 300 yuan more per year, which is not right!" ”
300 stone ......
There is so much food to be sent out every year, this is really not a thing!
Yan Shuo got up and said, "The loss of the Lu Mi Cang has been like this for nearly twenty years, what's wrong?" You just arrived at the Togura Department, you don't know anything, learn more, ask more questions, don't do too much! ”
He said it very politely, but Yang Deli stiffened his neck and said, "That's three hundred stones!" How can it be said that it is enough to eat food for hundreds of years? ”
Yan Shuo's face was calm, "Sit down!" ”
He faintly had the prestige of the head of the officials in the warehouse, so he drank lightly casually, and even bowed his head slightly to Changlin to express his appreciation.
Things that haven't been touched for 20 years, how long have you Yang Deli been in the warehouse, and you have to look for trouble, isn't this full of food.
Yang Deli refused to sit down, raised the account book and said: "A certain is from a peasant family, and the family stores grain every year, and it is clear how much is lost, and how much land do you have to bend down to plant if you lose more than 300 stones?" I don't understand those big truths, but ...... A certain person will not see the food being consumed, and a certain person will see it...... Distressed! ”
It turns out that he didn't want to challenge someone's authority?
Yan Shuo's face was slightly pale, and he said: "That is a practice for many years, the warehouse has been inspected many times, and no one has been found to be corrupt, you can rest assured." ”
Xiang Changlin admired Yan Shuo more and more, and wondered if there was a vacancy next year, whether to recommend him to be promoted to the next level.
"If you don't check so, you won't feel at ease!" Yang Deli said with tears in his eyes: "A certain ...... I can't see such a thing, Xiang Langzhong, if you can't find out the error, ...... So-and-so go home and farm! If you don't believe it, is there a big rat in the rice barn? I can't eat 300 stones! ”
Xiang Changlin wanted to scold, but Yang Deli said, "It's no problem, I'll go home and farm."
These words did not leave any room for himself, which shows that Yang Deli is a reckless person.
But this matter can no longer be ignored.
If he ignores it, and then the news spreads, some people will say that he is lazy.
Isn't it looking for something out of nowhere?
Fucking!
There was more anger in his eyes, he glanced at Yang Deli, his lips moved, and finally held back his scolding, "Then check!" ”
Then the warehouse began to self-check.
After some inspections, the year-end accounting was also delayed. Xiang Changlin was angry, called Yang Deli, and scolded: "There is nothing wrong with Lu Micang, you are a little bit entangled, why?" If it's inappropriate...... Go home and farm! ”
Yang Deli felt that there was a problem, "Xiang Langzhong, this is the granary of Datang!" I don't know the rules, but I am optimistic about the granary and don't waste food, and I feel that this is the truth. Somebody go check! ”
You are a little official, who gave you the face to check?
But Xiang Changlin just waved his hand in the end, "Go ahead." ”
If it weren't for Jia Ping'an's recent pride, he wouldn't have given Yang Deli a chance.
Yang Deli went to Lumicang and immediately became a public enemy.
The servants and coolies left him aside, and wanted to carry the grain to investigate, do it yourself, don't look for us.
Yang Deli checked it himself, it was cold in winter, but he was sweaty and armpits.
Xiang Changlin thought of it occasionally, so he took a look, and saw that Yang Deli was sweating profusely and steaming all over his body, and those scolds couldn't be exported.
This is a more serious young man, and it is better for him to suffer.
And this kind of people have the advantage of doing things to reassure Shangguan.
"Or ...... Let him be the pavilion chief? ”
There are several pavilion chiefs in the household department, who are responsible for guarding the gate and delivering news.
Yang Deli and others are more serious, and they will be like fish in water.
As for the resignation, Xiang Changlin felt that although such things were troublesome, they would not drive Yang Deli home.
Yang Deli rummaged through the rice warehouse, but finally found no clues.
He sat there in a daze, and a few small officials were sneering on the side.
"Do nothing to do, find your own trouble!"
"It's been nothing for more than 20 years, just you."
They felt that Yang Deli would be frustrated.
Can......
That's Yang Deli!
Since those losses are not corrupted, where have they gone?
Yang Deli returned home and thought hard.
Seeing this, Jia Ping'an asked, "Is there something wrong with my cousin?" ”
Yang Deli said: "The loss of the Lumi warehouse is not right, a certain said to check, but it can't be checked and checked." ”
"Attrition?" This Jia Ping'an really doesn't understand.
"I don't think it's right, there will be an extra 300 stones of loss this year, which is too much."
Belch!
300 stone ...... Not much!
Datang inherited the granary of the former Sui Dynasty, it is said that there are countless grains, coupled with the wind and rain in the past ten years, the harvest is bumper every year, and the grain of 300 stones is simply a drop in the ocean.
Jia Ping'an said with a smile: "Put this matter aside for the time being, and go and see it when the rice is issued." ”
Yang Deli raised his head, and there was more disgust in his eyes, "Ping'an, our family was poor in those years, I remember that at the end of one year, there was a little wheat noodles left in the family, you were hungry, so you looked at so-and-so, and so-and-so made half of that wheat noodles......"
He stretched out one hand, and there was probably so much wheat in one hand, that even a child could not eat enough.
"When I boiled water, I poured the wheat noodles into it, stirring it as I poured it...... Put some more salt and you'll eat a fragrant ......."
Yang Deli had tears in his eyes, "At that time, I was thinking that if there was food, a grain of rice would not be wasted, and it would all be cooked for you to eat." So I really can't see anyone wasting food! ”
Jia Ping'an's heart shook, patted Yang Deli's shoulder, and said seriously: "I know." This matter came to ...... somewhere"
"No!" Yang Deli shook his head and said stubbornly: "I can't find where those losses went, and I can't sleep at night." You don't care, just check it like this. ”
Yang Deli then seemed to go crazy, even eating and wondering where those losses went.
When he returned to the warehouse, he was also like this, completely forgetful.
Even Yan Shuo smiled bitterly: "When you encounter such a more serious encounter, a certain ...... Don't bother with him. ”
One day, he sat there staring blankly at the account books.
"It was said that there was a thief in Wang Shilang's house."
"What thief?"
"The servants who bought at his house deducted some money every day when they went out to buy, and they accumulated a lot, and they actually made fifty or sixty times over the years, so angry that his self-proclaimed shrewd lady fell ill, saying that the liver was too hot."
"How do you deduct that? Do you buy less? ”
"It's not about buying less, it's about making a false offer."
"I understand, Wang Shilang doesn't go to the market, so naturally he doesn't know the price of those things, he casually reports it, and no one knows."
"Hey! Diao slave! ”
"The current servants have to watch carefully, otherwise they will be greedy for money when they find an opportunity."
Yang Deli slowly raised his head.
He thought of it......
"Something is going to take a leave of absence." He went to ask for leave, and then went to the grain store in the East and West City to investigate.
"A certain ...... for advice"
The guy dozed off and ignored him.
Yang Deli took out a string of copper coins, dialed ten cents down, thought about it and got five more, and handed it over with a heartache.
The guy seemed to have a clairvoyant eye, and he actually opened his eyes, "What's the matter with the guest?" ”
Yang Deli held down the fifteen yuan and asked, "If you know about a certain question, the fifteen yuan is yours." ”
There was more greed in the man's eyes, and he glanced at Yang Deli's money bag.
But he obviously doesn't know Yang Deli's temperament, known as a ruthless character who can eat a handful of rice for three days.
"The families of those high-ranking officials...... Every year when they receive rice, can they come here to sell grain? ”
The guy frowned and said vigilantly, "Why do you ask this?" ”
Yang Deli shook his head, "I want to do grain trading, but I don't understand this, some officials' families say that they can sell it to XX, but XX doesn't dare to accept it." ”
The dude just looked at his money bag.
Is this feeling that the money is not enough?
Too greedy!
Yang Deli didn't want to give it, but in the end, he touched the five cents again, and gritted his teeth and said, "No more." ”
The man then said, "That's too much." Every year, when the rice is received, many officials' domestic servants come to sell grain, which is more or less unusual, and the price can be lower than the market price. ”
Yang Deli was overjoyed in his heart, and then asked, "How much can it add up?" ”
The guy thought for a moment, "I can collect about thirty stone a year." ”
Yang Deli calculated that there are a lot of grain shops in the East and West Cities, and if they are all the same as this one, then there are four or five hundred stones in and out every year.
He returned to the warehouse later, and asked to see Xiang Changlin.
There is a charcoal basin in the duty room, which is warm and makes people want to doze off.
Xiang Changlin just took a nap and was not very happy to be woken up.
Seeing that it was Yang Deli is, his face was elongated.
When this goods come, most of them are not good.
"What?" He carefully stroked the small bundle of beard on his chin and yawned.
"Ah......h
He stretched out.
Yang Deli said excitedly: "Xiang Langzhong, I know where those losses have gone!" ”
It is best not to stop halfway to stretch your waist, otherwise it is easy to fork out.
Xiang Changlin's body froze, and he felt that there was pain in his armpit and waist.
"It's off!"
His hand was just raised, and it was uncomfortable to put it down.
"That's easy to do." Yang Deli went over and slapped Xiang Changlin on the back.
"Hiss......" Xiang Changlin gasped, feeling that the breath had just dissipated.
"What did you say?"
Yang Deli said: "I know where those losses have gone. ”
"Where?" Xiang Changlin moved his arms, feeling very comfortable.
"We've got a lot of people out there."
What?
Xiang Changlin felt a faint pain in his lower ribs.
