Bypassing the shadow wall, it was followed by the main hall of the Salt and Iron Envoy.

In the main hall, there were no officials, but these officials did not know where to go, only a person sitting in the hall, panting and drinking tea, while rubbing his waist.

Dai Xuan fixed his eyes and saw that it was not Chen Jiye.

As soon as Chen Jiye saw the mighty people coming, as if he had seen a savior all of a sudden, he got up happily and hurried to Dai Guan: "Oh, I just asked the upper part of Chen to ask the officials to assist, who knew that Dai Gong came in person, Dai Gong is here, what is the matter?" ”

Dai Xuan grimaced, and said angrily: "Come and help you salt and iron envoys count the money." ”

Chen Jiye's eyes lit up: "Dai Gong is really amazing, he actually did it himself, come, come, come, let's go to the back office......"

Dai Guan: "......"

He thought that if he sarcastically said something about Chen Jiye, Chen Jiye would show shame.

But......

He really underestimated Chen Jiye.

But seeing that Chen Jiye warmly invited him to the back office's treasury, Dai Xuan brushed his sleeves and said, "Excellent." ”

He wants to see with his own eyes what tricks this Chang'an salt and iron envoy plays, and it is only a thousand years of income every year, how to count it.

So, everyone walked through the hall and through the corridor, and worked hard for a while...... bypassed the house of the back office, and then arrived at the treasury.

And at this moment......

Those officials of the Ministry of Civil Affairs with bad intentions...... All at once suffocated.

Dai Guan's body stiffened...... Then...... He saw a scene he will never forget.

Over here...... Countless copper coins were piled up on the open ground in front of the storehouse.

Copper coins are piled up.

And many scribes are sweating like rain at the moment, picking up these copper coins one by one, and then threading them with ropes, and after sorting them, they are sent into the warehouse one by one......

Where did you get so much money......

Dai Xuan was a little confused.

I'm afraid that only in the treasury can you see such a magnificent scene.

What the hell is going on?

What happened?

The rest of the people also opened their mouths as big as eggs and suffocated.

Chen Jiye said on the side: "Dai Gong, look...... There is too much money here, and now that the day of accounting is approaching, I am helpless, so I have no choice but to alarm the upper department, hoping that the upper department will assist. Didn't Dai Gong want to help count the money? Come on, let's move a position, Dai Gong has to do it himself, and be your example......"

And Dai Xuan looked at the mountain of money, and his heart was a little hairy, and he was a little out of shape: "What kind of money is this?" ”

Chen Jiye said: "Dai Gong, this is the salt tax collected by the Chang'an Salt and Iron Envoy. ”

Dai Guan: "......"

Dai Xuandun felt that the five thunders hit the top, his eyes were dark, and he almost fainted.

How is it possible, how is it possible, Chang'an Salt and Iron Envoy ...... Where did you get so much salt tax......

"Dai Gong...... Dai Gong...... It's not too early, and the money won't be counted......"

Dai Xuan's face twitched, looking at Chen Jiye, Chen Jiye winked at him, looking anxious.

There was silence for a long time......

Dai Xuan rolled up his sleeves: "Get out of the way." ”

He stepped forward, and at the foot of the mountain where the copper coins were piled up, without hesitation, he really began to pick up the copper coins one by one and take the ropes...... Begin to string the money one by one.

"Hurry up and ......"

Where can other officials still stand, and they rush up, and they are up and down.

Dai Zhou is old.

Over the years, pampered and pampered, the body has long been out of order.

He wore a rope numbly, reported the number, and then put the copper coins into the treasury and recorded them......

From noon to evening...... Only then did I find out...... This amount of work is really huge.

Night...... Chen Jiye asked people to light torches, and said in his mouth: "The black light is blind, everyone should be careful when counting money, and you must not hide money in the dark, if you are caught, it is a big crime of stealing the library, everyone is keeping an eye on it." ”

Dai Xuan already felt that his waist no longer belonged to him, and only chaos was left in his mind.

Many times, he wanted to spill a handful of money in his hand directly on the ground and walked away scolding.

But...... The self-esteem still kept him.

It was late at night.

Dawn came.

It's dawn......

Dai Zhou already felt like he was going to pass out.

But...... The amount of money and food added to this treasury has refreshed his cognition again and again.

Fifteen thousand.

30,000 ......

Forty thousand......

70,000 ......

Lakh......

There are 100,000 ......

To know...... At present, the best performance of Henan Province Salt and Iron Envoy is only 19,000 yuan.

What's even more terrifying is ...... The Chang'an Salt and Iron Envoy was in the last year, but it was more than 1,000 years old.

And now......

The counting of the money in the treasury continues.

The mountains of copper coins are finally getting fewer and fewer.

110,000 ......

Dai Xuan felt numb.

And when the number was reported to be 110,000, almost everyone exclaimed.

Although they are all exhausted to the extreme.

They did not close their eyes all night, and their bodies seemed to be drained.

But when this number was reported, Dai Xuan suddenly felt ...... It's as if my body has been injected with a heart booster.

110,000 ......

Sky......

How can it be......

Chen Jiye has only been in office for a few months.

Where did this salt and iron envoy collect so much salt tax......

If you count it again, I am afraid that the salt tax in Chang'an can be added to the salt and iron envoys of all provinces in the world, and it will not be too much.

When the last copper coin is strung into the rope.

He squatted on the ground......

Listening to the number reported by the scribe: "One hundred and thirty-three thousand two hundred and seventy and one hundred and thirty-two dollars!" ”

Call......

There was a long silence in front of the storehouse of the back office.

No one made a sound, as if it were dead silent.

After eating a hearty breakfast, Chen Jiye hurried over briskly, looked at Dai Zhou who was squatting on the ground motionless, and couldn't help but say: "Dai Gong, Dai Gong ......"

Dai Xuan did not respond.

Chen Jiye was frightened: "Ah, what's the matter, what's the matter, I just slept and ate a breakfast meal, it's only been a long time, how did Dai Gong become like this." ”

He was busy helping Dai to get up.

Dai Xuan suddenly made a voice: "Don't move. ”

“……”

Dai Xuan continued: "My leg is numb......"

Chen Jiye breathed a long sigh of relief, he was still alive, and he cocked his thumb: "Dai Gongtang is still a scholar, and he can do everything in person, which is really admirable." ”

Dai Xuan looked at Chen Jiye with a complicated look.

This person...... In the first half of his tenure, he raised the salt tax to a hundredfold.

I'm afraid that Guan Zhong will be reborn, and he won't be able to do it.

What is it?

That's a lot of work.

Dai Zhou thinks the world is crazy.

Everything becomes incomprehensible.

He was hungry and tired.

The officials behind him were also depressed, but they all looked at Chen Jiye with a strange look.

Jerked......

Dai Zhou remembered something.

Bad.

That is a document of repetition.

That's it......

It's still posted on the shadow wall.

It's a big joke.

Think about it, the Chang'an Salt and Iron Envoy collected a hundred times the salt tax, and in comparison, the Henan Salt and Iron Envoy, who was particularly performant, was a joke in front of the Chang'an Salt and Iron Envoy.

But...... The Ministry of Civil Affairs actually issued a petition, denouncing the Chang'an Salt and Iron Envoy for not doing his job properly, and being idle all day long, but this Petition was also hung at the door of the Salt and Iron Envoy.

Dai Xuan suddenly became nervous.

He is different from Chen Jiye, he ...... Face!

Squinting......

Dai Xuan forgot about his tiredness for a while, and suddenly lowered his voice: "Brother Chen Xian, can you take a step to speak." ”

"Don't borrow!" Chen Jiye replied very simply.

“……”

Then Chen Jiye said: "Dai Gong, this is where the office is located, what can you say, you can't say it in person, why do you need to borrow a step?" ”

"You ......" Dai Xuan gritted his teeth, but his face changed from angry, and then gradually began to relax and rise, and his efforts turned into a smile: "Jiye, speaking of which, your Mengjin Chen family is still related to our Dai family of Qianjun, you forget, eight generations ago, that is, in the fourth year of Jin Yixi, the daughter of the Chen family married my Dai man, but after that, it was my distant ancestor who was born, and in terms of it, you and I are eight generations of blood relatives." ”

Chen Jiye tilted his head and thought for a long time: "Ah, there is such a thing, I have to go back and look through the family reading and genealogy." ”

"When we talk about it, we are also relatives."

Chen Jiye shook his head: "You can't say that, if you talk about it like this, seven generations ago, the daughter of the Chen family also married the Li man of Longxi County, and then gave birth to a grandson Li Wei, Li Wei is the sixth ancestor of the current emperor, but will Your Majesty recognize me as a relative?" A little more ago, the Taishang sage Li Er you know, the Li family came from the Chen State that was divided in the early Zhou Dynasty, and the Chen State was in the same vein, and the surnames of Chen, Li, and Tian were separated, and my Mengjin Chen family and the Li family of Longxi County were still a family three thousand years ago. If it goes further, after Chen and Li are the Yellow Emperor, the Li and Chen clans can be said to be in the same spirit... I can't say that the Chen family is a royal family because of this..."

Dai Guan: "......"

Dai Xuan felt that his heart hurt, he held his face, and said for a long time: "Let's tell the truth, you immediately remove this application, and it won't be long before the ministry will give out a reward......

Chen Jiye thought about it and shook his head very firmly: "No, how can the documents of the ministry be regarded as child's play, since the application has been made, how can there be a reason to say that it will be withdrawn, and I have accepted the application and realized my mistakes, so I should hang it out and do it in three provinces." Easily removing it will make me proud and complacent, Dai Gong, if the upper part is changed overnight, it is very inappropriate. If everyone is like this, how can the court be convinced? ”

"You ......," Dai Xuan gritted his teeth.

Chen Jiye hurriedly said: "Of course, these words are not what I said, my brother Wei Zheng often talks about them, I just think it is reasonable, what does Dai Gong think?" ”

As soon as he heard the word Wei Zheng, Dai Xuan's face changed, and he suddenly became surprisingly quiet.

Chen's Lai Pi and Wei Zheng's impeachment, provoking two at a time, is definitely unwise behavior.

He was silent for a long time before he held back a sentence: "This is the most reasonable." ”

Drop the four words, don't want to stay here for a while longer, flick your sleeves and leave.
