Chapter 318: Miaoyu's Shock
Lianghuai are transferred to the salt transport envoy division, commonly known as the two Huai salt law, is the imperial court directly in charge of the salt administration of the yamen, in addition to the three products of the salt transport envoy, under the deputy envoy, the same knowledge, the general judgment, experience, each batch of inspection department has ambassadors, collectors, bucket level and other officials. The two deputy envoys lived in Yizheng and Huai'an respectively.
"Two old men...... a cronie of the Yanfa Dao Yamen, ran in from the gate, and ran to the door of the flower hall with all his might, "Liu Gonggong soldiers divided into two roads, and went to the north and south inspection divisions to check the accounts......"
Yan Ming and Jia Siwen glanced at each other, and they all looked at each other and smiled, and Jia Siwen laughed and said: "There are many ways to check the accounts of the Approval and Inspection Division, how can Liu Zhiyuan find out if he is a eunuch?" ”
"Yes, even if he knows a few words, but if the private salt loopholes of the Approval and Inspection Department were so easy to check, Lin Ruhai would still be able to take office until he died? Hahaha...... "Yan Ming is not worried at all, in their opinion, Liu Zhiyuan is not only a eunuch, but also a stupid person, but he just relies on the prestige of the royal minion, if he really wants him to do things, he has that kind of means?"
"However, the two staff members of the Imperial Inspector followed suit, and I heard that it was borrowed by Gonggong Liu...... These two people who are favored by the Imperial History of the Inspector have always been the case files of the various yamen, and they have been brushed by them and handled them in an orderly manner......"
"Suffered!" Yan Ming took the case: "Guan Chaosheng used to be Lin Ruhai's staff, and in terms of the familiarity of the salt farm, I'm afraid this official is not as good as him...... This Jia Cong is really leaky! He was afraid of being impeached and overstepping his power, so he deliberately 'sent someone' to go with Liu Zhiyuan...... Originally, he was just patrolling and couldn't interfere with the salt law, but now that Gonggong Liu has come forward, what else can we do? Moreover, Liu Zhiyuan is the most competitive and narrow-minded, Jia Cong wooed Shen Sanguan and had to donate 10 million, Liu Zhiyuan must be busy showing his merits......"
"Don't panic!" Jaswen sat firmly on Mount Tai and said leisurely: "I have checked the old accounts of the former salt patrol imperial history yamen here, Lin Ruhai has done things well, so as to get the reputation of being promoted, at that time, the major salt merchants relied on him, and he did not know the old accounts of the salt farm and the inspection department. Guan Chaosheng and I are fellow countrymen, and it is impossible to be clear...... Besides, everyone understands that the account of the salt law is not easy to check. ”
The messenger retreated, and Jasven's thunder could not move, which made Yan Ming's heart settle down half, thinking that Jasven was worthy of being the person he relied on above, and this bearing, Hanlin Academy, and becoming the leader of the Jiangzuo League were not far away.
"Jia Cong is injured and sick, and his name as a patrol cannot meddle in our affairs openly...... Liu Zhiyuan, who has lost his assistance, will definitely not be able to find out what is greasy...... "Jia Siwen smiled elegantly: "I heard that the generation of rivers and lakes outside the east of Yangzhou City, known as Xiao Qinhuai, is a beautiful artist, Lord Yan and this official, you have to celebrate well, and it is good to suppress the surprise." ”
Slender West Lake, Xiaoqinhuai, Xiaojinshan, many things in Yangzhou, seem to be radiated from other places, the prosperity of Jinling, the southern capital, because of the canal with water, brought up the wind flow of Yangzhou. Scholars are the group that can enjoy the most, sometimes more comfortable than the emperor, Yan Ming is naturally happy.
……
Yizheng is located in the southwest of Yangzhou, almost a parallel line with Guazhou, located on the north bank of the Yangtze River, with an artificial canal, the whole journey to Ganquan.
If the salt ticket and salt quotation do not meet the requirements, the Approval and Inspection Department has the right to seize and charge the crime, which is illegal smuggling.
The Yamen of the Approval and Inspection Division is set up in the canal port, covering an area of 10,000 square meters, near the river is a memorial arch, behind is the official hall, the reading hall, and the north generally has the instrument gate, the inner house, the garden.
In the goods hall of the Yizheng Approval and Inspection Division, the deputy envoy was busy laughing and serving tea, Liu Zhiyuan sat on the Taishi chair next to the door with a smile, and he was eager to make a contribution in his heart.
The person in charge of this audit is him, in fact, Guan Chaosheng and Miaoyu, Liu Zhiyuan is really unclear about the details, this kind of high-IQ thing, what can Liu Zhiyuan do if he uses his brains again? If you can't find out, you feel that you have lost face, so Jia Cong is willing to "borrow" someone, he is really gratified, but he is competitive and eager for quick success, Jia Cong has been praised, and he urgently needs a credit.
Checking the accounts with Jia Cong's two staff, there are also some hired folk audit masters, and the sound of abacus in the reading hall is crackling and endless, like rhythmic music.
Behind the Nanmu long case in the west, Miaoyu was keeping accounts with a brush in her hand, Guan Chaosheng saw that her bookkeeping method was very cumbersome, how much to come in and how much to go out, all according to the same amount, to check an account, you need two bills.
However, even if this bookkeeping method is cumbersome, if you look closely, the loopholes are clear at a glance!
"It's ...... Dong Weng said about double-entry accounting? You're so smart that you learned it so quickly? Guan Chaosheng looked at Miaoyu in surprise and slowly wrote at the end of the paper, "On a certain day, a certain year, a certain month, a certain Cao boat is really missing five citations" and "five votes"......
Miaoyu's expression was also shocked, and she whispered: "At first, I didn't know if it would work, but I didn't expect that after a try, loopholes could be found in many places, and the leakage methods of the Yamen of the Criticism Department were really not to be underestimated, and the accounts were piled up into a mountain......
"It seems that their private salt is scattered, or intercepted official salt, and some places are just codes, but Dong Weng can do this step, and the means are not shallow......"
Double-entry bookkeeping is considered to be the same as the steam engine, something that has a historical impetus, especially in business and economy, it originated in the West, and the Western economy was able to catch up with the East, and it has to be said that double-entry bookkeeping has a great contribution.
Modern China's accounting is still based on it, and Jia Cong's method naturally bursts the ancient bookkeeping loopholes!
Of course, the people in the inspection department are not stupid, and there are many private salts that cross the river, and writing them down is like a password, which is difficult to crack, or not to be remembered at all.
Jia Cong's ultimate goal is to completely control the two Huai salt for the imperial court, so as to achieve the dispersion of interests among the common people, and the imperial court also gets benefits, but this is a long-term goal.
Most of the salt that passed through Yizheng entered Jiangxi along the Yangtze River and some artificial canals, and the accounts of only these few months were enough for Chaosheng and Miaoyu to drink a pot, so Liu Zhiyuan waited for a long yawn, and it took several days to receive the general account.
"The salt ticket and the salt quote do not match the number of ships, there are also records here in Jiujiang Banknote, whether it is the previous salt ticket or the current salt quote, it is more than 100 catties, and most of the boats are lacking...... Compared with the actual amount in Jiangxi, are those considered private salt? Hahaha...... Finally let our family find ......" Liu Zhiyuan thought that it was his own cleverness, he had Jinyi Wei available, and it was not easy to go to Jiangxi to investigate.
"Father-in-law......" Ambassador Yizheng trembled, as if he had a heart disease, but Liu Zhiyuan didn't look at him and snorted: "Go!" Let's go see the boat ......."
