Chapter 0262: Empty Salary and Deficit

The handover of Feng Ziying and Jiao Li to Zhao Dahai took three days to end. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

At first, Jia Min and others thought that the handover would be over in half a day. At that time, Zhao Dahai told him the same thing.

However, the more you hand over, the more problems are found in it. As a result, there was an increase in staff, and some accounts had to be reconciled.

Not only are the accounts incomplete, but many subjects are also very chaotic, the account records are not standardized, the reimbursement procedures are incomplete, and there are many problems in the numbers.

The account does not match the account, the account does not match the object, the account does not match the person, and the account does not match the bill. In short, it's a mess.

The end result, naturally, is a huge financial deficit. At present, the deficit alone is more than 7,800 taels. It is almost equivalent to the imperial court's allocation of funds to Bu Kui in a year.

At present, more than 2,400 taels of silver are still owed to the soldiers and some scribes and servants for four months, and the rest is owed to the merchants.

Of course, according to their original accounts, the deficit was not so much, only 4,000 taels, and more than 2,000 taels, which were owed to the yamen from the outside and belonged to accounts receivable. This part of the creditor's rights, it turned out that Zhao Dahai and Yang Lin did not take it out, and later saw that Feng Ziying did not admit the deficit, so they took it out.

Even so, it is not easy to recover these claims. Some people are dead, some people are gone, in short, most of them are bad debts and bad debts.

You can't get back what you owe, but you have to give what you owe. Some materials, such as river workers, government officials, laborers, soldiers, etc., all have to be repaid.

It's really okay if you don't pay it back, or even pay off the debt. However, as a first-class yamen, if it really does this, the impact on the yamen will be huge.

It's not just a loss of image, the key is that there is no credibility, and if you say anything in the future, no one will believe you.

Even if you tell the truth later, others will think it is a lie. Even if you do something good, others think you're doing something bad.

As far as the yamen is concerned, the soldiers and officials cannot get money, which will naturally affect their morale. It is normal to find no one when employing people, or although people are here, they are passive and slacking off, not contributing to work, and perfunctory.

These people also have to survive, and they are not criminals, and there is no reason to work hard for you to do it in vain. The emperor is not short of hungry soldiers.

For Jia Min, there is such a huge deficit in the yamen, and many things that he wants to do can't be done at all. It's hard to move an inch without money.

Therefore, if we want the yamen to operate normally in the future, we must solve the problem of shortage.

It is not impossible to solve the problem of shortfall. However, how to solve it, this is a big name.

Jia Min came this time and brought a lot of money. This money can be divided into several parts.

The first is the travel expenses of the 500 prisoners, which are paid by the Ministry of Punishment. Although this part of the money is not much, Jia Min spent a lot of money on the food of the prisoners. However, because the time on the road has been greatly shortened, on the whole, Jia Min did not put much money on it, and it was only more than two hundred taels of silver in total.

For him, the loss was negligible. If you lose, you lose, and he doesn't want to come back.

The second part of the money is the funds that the Ministry of War has given to the government corps for this year. Because there is no special equipment such as firearms, this part of the military expenditure has not been overrun.

If you want to make up for the shortfall, you can take out this part of the money. However, the risks of doing so are also significant. In case a political opponent wants to rectify Jia Min in this regard, it will be enough for him to drink a pot.

Therefore, this road, in fact, will not work. There was no need for Jia Min to risk this.

The third part of the money is the money of the government corps. This part of the money is from various prefectures, but most of it is earned by Jia Min through training.

It is also inappropriate to use this money. Although he used it, no one said anything, but he didn't want to set this precedent.

There is also a part of the money, which is Jia Min's own private money. This part of the money is more than 70,000 taels.

If you want to make up for the shortfall, that is, take this part of the money, it is the safest way.

In this way, Jia Min not only went to the unlucky place of Bukui, but also took over a mess.

Of course, there is a reason for the deficit, but Zhao Dahai and Yang Lin put the responsibility for the deficit on the former guard Qian Delu.

Qian Delu died in August last year, and he is likely to be responsible for the shortfall, but Zhao Dahai may not be as he said, not responsible.

It's just that Qian Delu is dead, and some accounts have to be checked, which is very troublesome. Of course, if Jia Min wants to be held accountable, there is a way, and if Zhao Dahai and Yang Lin are really responsible, it will be difficult to escape.

However, now that he has just taken over Bu Kui, he still needs to consider the issue of stability, trying to achieve a smooth transition without causing huge shocks.

In the end, Jia Min decided to take out his own money to make up for the deficit first, and then slowly settle accounts with Zhao Dahai and Yang Lin later. When there is money in the yamen in the future, it will be enough to pay it back to yourself.

In the future, it will be up to you to make your own decisions here, and if the yamen doesn't have any money, you deserve to lose this money.

"Chief Min, are you really going to do this?"

Feng Ziying asked.

"That's it, we don't have any more time to wait, and if we drag on like this, we won't be able to do a lot of things."

"Captain Chen, how many of our team are in the camp?"

"The first and third battalions are there."

"Okay, you take someone to announce it, pay those veterans back the money, and go to Ping'er to get the money. Battalion Commander Jia was asked to take the roster, call out all the veterans, check them one by one, and all those who did not arrive were dealt with according to the vacancy and removed from the list on the spot. If there is a disability, ask them to report immediately for verification. Those who do not come to report will be removed. ”

"The officers and soldiers of the government corps are on alert, and if any veteran makes trouble, they will be suppressed immediately. Those who dare to use weapons will be killed. ”

"Quartermaster Jiao, if you go with Zhao Dahai, just say what I said, Yang Lin will be dismissed, go home to reflect on and be investigated, and you will take over the affairs that Yang Lin is responsible for. Called Zhao Dahai to announce. If Zhao Dahai doesn't comply, he will be confined to the prison. ”

"Chief of Staff Feng, isn't there already evidence of Zhong Ding's empty salary here, you go and announce it, Zhong Ding's dismissal is pending investigation. You will be the first leader. From tomorrow onwards, the first sa will train according to our training standards. There is resistance, and severe punishment is not granted. ”

"Regarding Zhao Dahai, Yang Lin and Zhong Ding, let's look at their own performance in the future. If you behave well, you can consider giving them a way out, if you still disobey the yang and yin, treat us as children and fools, there is no need to be polite to them. ”

"Lin Dajiang, you are responsible for paying those scribes and officials, referring to the method of Chief Chen, and also checking according to the roster, and all vacancies will be cleared. Let's get started. ”

was in arrears for four months, and as soon as Jia Min came, he used his private money to advance. It would be good to be able to receive the money, so there was no commotion among the veterans and scribes. On the contrary, they also thanked Jia Min.

Actions to clear vacancies. I thought it might cause a backlash, but in fact, this concern was completely unnecessary. Not only did it not cause a backlash, but on the contrary, many soldiers from the first rank took the initiative to come out and expose who ate empty salaries.

Of course, their courage to come out and expose it is also related to Zhong Ding's dismissal. As for the matter of the first sashi's training tomorrow, no officers and men have come forward to oppose it.

Zhao Dahai was reluctant to announce the news of Yang Lin's dismissal by himself, but seeing that Jiao Li's tone was not good, and it was Jia Min's personal order, he obeyed.

Originally, he wanted to put pressure on Jia Min over the arrears, but as soon as Jia Min paid the soldiers, he knew that the general trend had gone and he had lost control of the team.

Jia Min's official residence is orthodox, his name is justified, there are many powerful people, the soldiers are strong and strong, and he can pay the soldiers, how the soldiers choose, it is naturally obvious.

Zhao Dahai thinks so, of course, there is some truth. However, he did not find the root cause.

The arrears of military salaries to soldiers are in themselves infringing on the vital interests of soldiers. Those who blatantly eat empty wages are the injustices that happen around them, so how can the soldiers balance their hearts? Now that Jia Min has come out to correct it, it is actually what they can't ask for, where do they think that because they have been with you for a long time, they will support you?

The first Zuo Zuo led Zhong Ding to be released from the confinement room yesterday. The confinement made him lose face, but he didn't expect that the matter of eating empty wages was exposed again.

The dismissal of him naturally made him very dissatisfied, so he howled to see Jia Min, and no one paid attention to his request, so Zhong Ding made a move that he regretted for the rest of his life.

He thought that he would still have an appeal to his subordinates, so he ordered the first Zuo to mutiniate and come out to fight with the people of the government corps.

"First Zuo's brothers, we are all old men of Bu Kui, Bu Kui is our world, they are newcomers, they just wanted to bully us when they came, let's fight with them and drive them out of Bu Kui."

At this time, Zhao Dahai also arrived here, and when he saw Zhong Ding say this, he knew that something was wrong.

This idiot, isn't this a blatant incitement to mutiny?

To say that the mutiny is still light, to say that you are a rebellion, is also to say that it is in the past.

So he wanted to stop Zhong Ding.

"Zhong Ding, what nonsense are you talking about? Why don't you apologize to the chief of staff? ”

Zhong Ding is usually domineering, harsh and aggressive, arrogant and disrespectful, arrogant and arrogant, he was dismissed at this time, he has lost his mind, where will he listen to Zhao Dahai?

"Zhao Dahai, you coward, this Bukui's world, did you just hand it over to these children? The foundation we have worked so hard to lay here for so many years, are you going to let it be ruined? Come out and fight them, brethren. ”

None of the soldiers of the first Zuo moved, just looked at him coldly.

"Battalion Commander Jia, take down this thief."

Jia Lian had been waiting for Feng Ziying to speak for a long time, and immediately led a few people to twist Zhong Ding. He seized his saber and searched his waist for his plate.

"Zhong Ding, you are rebellious, you intend to incite rebellion, you have different intentions, you dare to say that Bu Kui is your world, do you still have the emperor in your eyes?"

As soon as Feng Ziying said this, Zhao Dahai's heart was completely cold.

At this time, Zhong Ding's crime is confirmed, and no one can save him. Even if General Ningguta came forward, it would be even more difficult.

"Feng Ziying, you remember for me, my uncle will not let you go. General Ningguta is my uncle, you remember it for me! ”

"I remember, take him down!"

Zhong Ding was still shouting, but was dragged away by Jia Lian and others.

Jia Min walked over slowly.

In fact, he had already seen this process on the side.

"Chief Min, what to do with Zhong Ding?"

"Interrogation, collection of evidence, escort to the imperial capital, and hand over to the Metropolitan Procuratorate for disposal. Oh, and besides, search his quarters. ”

After Jia Min finished speaking, he left as if nothing had happened.
