Chapter 335: Closing Positions

On the first day of the fifth month of the seventeenth year of Yongzhi, the northwest corner of Luyang City.

This is a very large warehouse, its name is Changping, mainly responsible for the supply of grain and grass for most of the garrisons in Yongxi, so a large amount of grain is stored here.

Rows of warehouses are neatly lined up in the sun, and the early morning when the positions are often closed is not quiet, and the shouts of people are heard from time to time inside.

The grain stored in Changping is of great importance, so this is one of the most strictly guarded places in Yongxi, and it must not be out of the half-point pool.

In terms of fire prevention, water from the moat is directed here; In terms of anti-theft, a part of the garrison in Luyang City is guarding here, and the vigilance is absolutely strict.

Even Chen Xiaoting, who has the identity of Jinyiwei, has passed through five checkpoints before entering the gate of Chang Ping.

Today he came with grain, and he copied out more than 1,000 stones of grain, all of which were disposed of by Shen Yue at a low price and given to the transfer envoy Yamen.

Walking into the gate of Changping with the convoy, Chen Xiaoting thought that it would be quiet inside, but he saw more than a dozen carriages being loaded and loaded, and it was a lively scene.

Just as Chen Xiaoting was surprised in his heart, there was a seven-rank civil official on the opposite side, followed by three scribes.

"You're here to deliver food?" Sun Yaolin opened his mouth and asked, he is a seven-pin planner who often closes positions.

Chen Xiaoting nodded and replied, "On the order of Shen Qianhu, send grain to Chang Ping, a total of 1,156 stones, please collect it!"

Sun Yaolin is now thirty-two years old, and he is in the prime of life, so he is very capable of letting people collect it by hand.

The two of them were busy with their subordinates, and Chen Xiaoting originally thought that he should stay so cool, but he didn't expect Sun Yaolin to take the initiative to say hard work to him.

Civil officials and Jinyiwei are naturally opposed, and it is definitely not easy to hear these three words, which also makes Chen Xiaoting want to talk to Sun Yaolin.

After a brief politeness, Chen Xiaoting pointed to the person who was loading the truck not far away: "Lord Sun, where are these grain loading trucks going to be delivered?"

Sun Yaolin replied: "Although the guards everywhere produce military rations, most of them can only be half self-sufficient, and the rest have to be closed to fill the gap!"

"So when these grains are on the bus, they are military rations, and they will be sent to various guard posts, and this situation will happen at two ends in three days!"

Speaking of this, Sun Yaolin smiled and said: "It's okay now, if there is a real war, there will only be more convoys here!"

Chang Ping has two major functions, dealing with famine and supplying military rations, and it is normal for someone to send grain out.

But then he asked, "All this food is out of the city, there should be someone to send it to each other, right?"

Sun Yaolin said: "Of course, wherever the grain merchant is sent, there will be someone sent by the guard to escort it, and generally speaking, it can be delivered within a day!"

Hearing this, Chen Xiaoting couldn't help asking, "Delivered within a day?" Yongxi is so big, I'm afraid it's unlikely! ”

Sun Yaolin laughed, and then said: "You don't know this, Yongxi Prefecture also has our warehouses, and we can transfer them when needed!"

"It's just that the place we're standing here is the largest warehouse, but it's not the only one!"

Sun Yaolin explained Chen Xiaoting in this way, but in fact, he did not have an in-depth understanding of this aspect.

Although Chang Ping is an important yamen, it is also a Qingshui yamen, and they are inconspicuous in the power of the five platforms.

So at this time, Chen Xiaoting asked again: "Since there are so many warehouses, I don't know how much grain is stored here, and how much grain is stored in the warehouses in various places?"

This question made Sun Yaolin stunned, and after a few seconds he smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, you are really tricky in asking this question!"

Then he took away his smile, and then said, "It's a pity that I can't tell you, this is the regulation of the transfer envoy yamen, unless the governor comes to ask!"

The grain stored in the Chang Ping warehouse is related to the military situation, and it must not be disclosed at will, so Chen Xiaoting also expressed his understanding.

But then Sun Yaolin said: "Moreover, the specific amount of grain in Yongxi is not clear!"

These words made Chen Xiaoting feel puzzled, as a Ji Cheng who often closes positions, how could he not know how much food there is.

Seeing his puzzled eyes, he listened to Sun Yaolin explain: "This official has not been here for a few days, even if he wants to tell you the specific number, he is indeed powerless!"

Sun Yaolin was newly appointed, which Chen Xiaoting did not expect.

The conversation between the two greatly narrowed the distance between them, so that Chen Xiaoting couldn't help but take the initiative to ask: "Lord Sun, Jinyiwei has always been notorious among officials, and he is not ashamed to ......be an official."

"Why don't you have this prejudice and are willing to talk to people like you?"

This question is very sensitive, and Sun Yaolin's answer will either offend the civilian clique or offend Jinyiwei.

But Sun Yaolin didn't think about it, so he said: "Most of the officials who are not ashamed of Jinyiwei are corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and Jinyiwei is cleaning up these people, so they naturally want to scold!"

Speaking of this, Sun Yaolin dusted off his sleeves and said: "These people are scum, Jinyi Wei cleaned them up just to eliminate harm for the country and the people, why should I hate you for buying it?"

These words came out of the mouth of a civil official, which gave Chen Xiaoting a different kind of freshness.

Now Sun Yaolin's impression in his heart is that he is definitely a good official who is upright, and he is also the kind of good official who knows how to be flexible.

Once such a person has an opportunity, he will definitely soar into the sky, and the emperor is inferior to such a person.

Putting these aside, Chen Xiaoting also has a lot of respect for this kind of person who cares about the people and the country.

So he said: "Master Sun can put aside his prejudices and devote himself to the country, and admire him!"

was praised by Chen Xiaoting like this, Sun Yaolin smiled and said: "Chen Zongqi, you are different from others!"

Am I being seen as an entrepreneur? Chen Xiaoting muttered in his heart.

Then he asked, "What's different there?"

Sun Yaolin said: "Other people Jinyiwei, where will you talk to me so much?"

Chen Xiaoting couldn't help but be stunned, and then the two looked at each other and smiled, they both saw the difference in each other.

If it weren't for the different positions, I'm afraid the two would have become friends immediately, but now this kind of condition is impossible for a short time.

After the two chatted for a while, all the grain brought by Chen Xiaoting was counted, and all the grain loaded on the other side was also completed.

"Master Sun, don't leave it at that!" Chen Xiaoting said goodbye.

"Walk slowly!" Sun Yaolin also replied.

After Chen Xiaoting led the people away, Sun Yaolin muttered: "It seems that you have to quickly familiarize yourself with the account books and clear all the accounts that are often closed!"

"After all, he has become a regular liquidator, and he must know how much grain is in the warehouse!"

In fact, to achieve this step, it is not easy for Sun Yaolin to write a book, because he has to check the account books of all the warehouses in Yongxi.

There are discrepancies in the warehouse every three or five times, and the account books must be very messy, so Sun Yaolin will be busy next.

He is loyal and righteous, and he has always demanded himself as a clean and good official, so these are his own duties.
