He was careful outside in his calculations, and he had to save money and spend every penny, but the people who returned to the Yi place collected 10,000 yuan every day and fell into his private pocket, and he suddenly felt a little unhappy.

Seeking personal gain is small, if you blatantly eat kickbacks, offend the big businessmen, lose trust in the return to the exchange, and the supplies of the fifty ships are not satisfied, and you can't go to sea at that time, or you can't make money, don't say that he will be promoted to the eighth grade, even his small nine-grade official position will be lost!

Although he and Tang Xun have a division of labor, both of them are deputy envoys of Huiyi Supervision, and their appointment documents, except for the different names, are all the same, and they are all fully responsible for the matter of Huiyi Supervision, and if there is a problem with the procurement of goods and materials, the two of them are responsible, and if there is a problem with Xuanwei Army, they are also responsible for the two of them, and no one can escape.

I don't know if Tang Xun knows if he knows if he has any moths that eat kickbacks when he goes back to the Yi Supervision Office, and he must talk to him when he goes back tomorrow, and if he does, he will be cleared out, and he will not be warned at that time.

"Two brothers, excuse me. I just heard the two of you talk about the return of the imperial court, and I have just come from other places to see if there is a chance to negotiate business with the government. I don't know if the two brothers have time to come to my room for a cup of tea and give advice. Yang Congyi came to the table where Fang Cai talked about Hui Yi with a teacup.

The two had already finished eating, and were about to get up and leave, when they saw a young man coming to talk, they immediately looked Yang Congyi up and down to take a closer look, he wanted to do business with the government at a young age, and he wanted to come to the family with a good background, and he had some background. One of them asked, "What business do you do?" ”

Yang Congyi spit out two words and said, "Jade." ”

"Jade? I haven't heard that I want to buy jade at the Hui Yi Office, so I'm afraid I can't do it. The merchant surnamed Zhu replied slowly.

"That's why I want to ask the two of you in the next place, can you show me the way?" Yang Congyi saw that the two of them were a little hesitant, and then said: "Two brothers, find a quiet place to chat, okay?" ”

"We're all businessmen, so it's good to talk. What do you say, Brother Wang? "The merchant surnamed Zhu looked at the businessman surnamed Wang.

The businessman surnamed Wang was noncommittal.

"Okay, then go to my room, it's on the second floor. Please! Yang Congyi took the first step, and the businessmen surnamed Zhu and Wang followed.

"Shopkeeper, make a pot of tea and send it to the room." I went up the stairs and went back to explain.

As soon as he entered the room, after the two businessmen sat down, Yang Congyi asked them how they went back to Yi Douzao to negotiate business, and the two said that they were indeed different, and when they went back to Yi Douzao, in addition to Tang Xun, there were four shopkeepers he found from his hometown, and they were not talking to the same person, so their experiences were different.

There are many businessmen who come back to the Yi Supervision Office, in order to improve efficiency, they are basically negotiated separately, everyone does something privately, no one knows, the same commodity transportation is far and near, the purchase price includes the cost of freight, the purchase price can be negotiated when negotiating, there is a certain freedom, someone eats rebates, it is completely possible, after all, there are many large orders, make a big business, businessmen can also earn so much, give them some rebates, businessmen can also accept.

Everyone is a businessman, dealing with the government, bribery or something is still very common, for their own good, generally no one will say it, otherwise the reputation will be ruined, and next time I ask someone else to do something, but no one is willing to help. If it weren't for the businessman surnamed Wang sulking and talking about it in private, it is estimated that no one would know about the fact that someone in the Hui Yi Supervision Office accepted bribes and ate kickbacks.

After this matter goes back, it must be investigated and solved, otherwise the bad impact will spread, and once something goes wrong, the two of them will not be able to hold back.

After the three of them drank tea, they only heard Yang Congyi say: "I'm sorry, in fact, I made a little joke with the two of you just now." ”

Zhu and Wang were stunned, not knowing what the young businessman in front of them meant.

"Don't hide it from you, I'm not a jade merchant, but a deputy envoy of Hui Yi Governor." When Yang Congyi said this sentence with a smile, the relaxed atmosphere in the room suddenly tightened.

The two businessmen glanced at each other, not knowing whether to believe it or not, but they couldn't pay attention, and they didn't dare to answer anything, so they remained silent.

Yang Congyi said with a smile: "What the two of you said just now about returning to Yi, I will find out after I go back, if someone really asks for bribes and kickbacks, he will definitely be cleared out and returned to Yi Superintendent." Please also ask you to come back to the supervision office with me tomorrow to make personal witnesses. If it is true, we want all your Qianpouran tea, and the deputy envoy of Hui Yi Supervision, who is in charge of material procurement, can personally negotiate with you, what do you think? ”

The merchant surnamed Wang will be suspicious: "Your Excellency is not lying? ”

Yang Congyi replied: "Is it a lie, let's go back to the Yi Supervision Office tomorrow, and you will know at a glance." ”

"If that's the case, Wang is here to thank you for upholding justice!" The merchant surnamed Wang stood up and saluted.

"No need to be polite. Hui Yi Du should be fair and just, otherwise how to make money and do business with many businessmen. If the two of you can trust Yang, we will go back together early tomorrow morning. ”

The merchant surnamed Zhu said apologetically: "Lord Yang, I'm really sorry, I happened to have an urgent matter to go to Quzhou, and I only came from the other side of the river in the evening, I'm afraid I can't go back with you." ”

Yang Congyi said with a smile: "Since there is something to do, it is okay for Wang Yuan to go back with me." Wang Yuanwai, what do you say? ”

The businessman surnamed Wang replied: "Wang listened to the arrangement of the adult, since the adult is in charge, what is there to fear when he goes back." ”

"Okay, that's settled. Tomorrow at three o'clock, see you downstairs and set off on time. ”

After Yang Congyi finished saying this, the businessmen surnamed Wang and Zhu immediately got up and said goodbye.

After a day of running around, he was very tired, and after the two left, Yang Congyi washed up and turned off the lights to rest.

When this kind of thing happened back to Yi Tuo, he believed that Tang Xun didn't know, he just believed in his shopkeeper too much, thinking that they didn't make mistakes and weren't greedy before, and they wouldn't be now.

But did he ever think that in the past, their power to be the shopkeeper was restricted, doing things for private people, and their own bosses were always staring at them, but now the power is not controlled or supervised, and they are faced with hundreds of thousands of procurement transactions every day, such a large amount of money, all of which are from the state, and no one has watched it, and if they don't deduct points privately, they are sorry for themselves.

There is no doubt that Tang Xun's supervision is not in place, and he is responsible for the incident of soliciting bribes and eating kickbacks, and he must be responsible for eliminating these negative influences.

But Tang Xun is his classmate and his only friend, so how to tell him about this issue still needs to be considered.

Early the next morning, Yang Congyi and the tea merchant surnamed Wang left the inn and crossed the river by boat.

At that time, the two rushed to Qingbo Gate, but saw a long queue outside the gate, guarded by guards, to check on those who entered the city.

Yang Congyi has passed through Qingbo Gate many times before, and there has never been a forbidden army set up a guard to check entry and exit, I don't know what happened today.

On the other hand, the merchant surnamed Wang, he seems to be calm.

"Wang Yuanwai, when you came before, there were so many generals in this Qingbo Gate?"

The merchant surnamed Wang replied: "There were no such generals when I went to the city in five days, but I had them when I went out of the city yesterday, and I heard that it was the people of the Jin Kingdom who came to congratulate the Tianshen Festival." ”

"I see." Yang Congyi suddenly remembered that today was May 24, and May 21 was Tianshen Day, Zhao Gou's birthday, and Jin Guo was going to send an envoy to congratulate him as usual.

Last year, there was an attack on the envoy of the Jin country, and the two countries worked together to suppress it, so naturally there can be no more problems when the envoy comes again this year, and it is reasonable to strengthen security inspections.

I don't know how Yan Liang is doing, he should go back to Beijing, otherwise how could he have the opportunity to contact the Emperor of Jin. In the future, his fame should be on him, and when he will be defeated when he waives his troops south, he will take advantage of the chaos to earn some fame, and there will be no war in the world in the short term.

After thinking of Yan Liang, Yang Congyi remembered the gold taels he promised.

After saving Yan Liang's life, he should not have broken his promise. Since the envoy of the Kingdom of Jin is here this time, let's take that knife and take a look at it when I have time.

Jin Guo robbed so much gold, silver and jewelry, 10,000 taels of gold is not a lot of money, but for Yang Congyi, who is short of money now, it is a useful huge amount of money, and the troops recruited by Jiang Kai are not a small amount of expenses, and 50,000 military expenses will not last long, so they need to raise some money.

After waiting in line for two quarters of an hour, Yang Congyi passed a strict search by the forbidden army before being released into the city.

As soon as they entered Lin'an City, the two went straight back to the Yi Supervision Office.

Yang Congyi came back not long ago, and the guards still had some eyes, and they recognized this uncommon deputy envoy of Hui Yi Governor, so they didn't stop him and let him in directly.

But the tea merchant surnamed Wang in the back was stopped and not allowed to enter casually.

waited until Yang Congyi spoke, and the guards hurriedly let him go.

I don't know if these guards have asked those businessmen for benefits, I'm afraid there are not a few, just like going to the yamen to complain, if you don't give money, you can't enter the door, not to mention that they are here to talk about business, everyone has money, and it is not very easy to ask for a few money.

This guard is the first gateway back to the Yi Supervision Office, and it has to be carefully inspected, they collect money when they enter the door, and when they negotiate the purchase, the shopkeeper collects money and asks for bribes, and the atmosphere of the Supervision Office is bad, but whenever something happens, he has to bear it with Tang Xun.

Yang Congyi brought the merchant surnamed Wang into the courtyard and let him drink tea and rest first.

He went to find Tang Xun and saw that he was negotiating purchases with merchants in the room, so he didn't go in to disturb him.

Then he sent someone to inform Lord Huang that he had returned to Lin'an, and there was a report on the affairs of the Xuanwei Army, and asked Lord Huang to come as soon as possible.

Half an hour later, Tang Xun finished negotiating with the merchant and signed the contract.

didn't give Tang Xun time to rest, Yang Congyi immediately pushed the door in.

"Brother Tang, I'm back again."

"Brother Yang!" Tang Xun suddenly raised his head when he heard Yang Congyi's voice, and then got up and stepped forward to ask: "I haven't seen you for many days, are you okay?" ”

Yang Congyi smiled: "I have no disasters and diseases, I am alive and well, what is not good." ”

Tang Xun looked up and down carefully, and said, "You are tanned." ”

Yang Congyi laughed when he heard this, but shook his head and did not answer.

The door was closed, and the two sat down at the table.
