Chapter 226: New Bookkeeping, Urgent

After Rong, Li Jing said some heart-to-heart words to him, and in front of him, he sent a lot of silk rewards to the Guo family who lived in the county seat of Chunxian County, anyway, these things, the seizure of the confiscated clan will get a lot, Guangyang Qucheng is broken, and dozens of cars of antiques and jade from the officials' mansions are piled up, Li Jing has never been interested in these things.

As for those officials who returned to Yangqu, they wrote to ask for these antique jade with shy faces, Li Jing only shirked it, what kind of joke, thumb-sized gems, which woman doesn't love, even if she can't give it away, she can take it out and sell it, send it back? Let's have enough to eat.

In addition, the Military Judge Advocate General's Office must be reformed, and those who are clever and capable should be selected to run more to the counties and towns below, and keep abreast of the movements of the people, and not be careless, which is related to our life and death."

"Rest assured, after the last general goes down, he will definitely do it himself, and he will never let the Wutai incident happen again!" Guo Sheng had to tell him like this, he didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, and hurriedly agreed in a deep voice.

"Well, this matter is done, I will give you a great credit!" Li Jing looked left and right, and saw that there were a lot of official documents piled up on hand, so he said with a smile, "Let's go down to reorganize the army first, and it's not too late to leave after having dinner with me at noon." ”

"Yes!" Guo Sheng responded meticulously, and then slowly retreated.

"My lord, after the ration of this month, there is no income at all, although there is a base of silver seized from the previous states, but I am afraid it will not be able to last for a long time." Li Denggao was originally waiting quietly on the sidelines, and he didn't understand this military matter, although Li Jing called him every time, but this person, when he was old, his brain was dull, and a little logistics clutter made him dizzy every day, where did he have the energy to worry about anything else.

When Li Jing saw him coming up, he opened the account book of the food and salary consumed by various armies and localities this month, and when he looked up at the expense office, he was dizzy for a while, "What? Why didn't I use the one-in, one-out, one-deposit accounting method I taught you last time? ”

What he said was an inventory of the detailed books obtained from the memories of later generations, one in, one out, one balance, the clear reading on the books, and the method of being clear at a glance was also appreciated by Li Denggao.

When Li Denggao heard this, he immediately complained bitterly, and said with a bitter face, "My lord, although the new bookkeeping method is easy to use, but the people below can't, where will they find so many readers for a while?" ”

"Confused!" Li Jing slammed the table hard, but when he thought that he was also his clan uncle, it was not good to show him his face in public, but this incident really annoyed him, "You are now a military clerk and in charge of all logistics and food affairs, how can you be so cowardly?" Tell the next person to lead the nose?! ”

In his view, Li Denggao is soft-natured, and this new-style bookkeeping method, not to mention that it is convenient, simple and easy to understand, even if it is copied, the people below should be willing to accept it, and they can't learn anything for a while, and it's not just for the sake of falsifying in the account books and making money for themselves.

"I don't care about anything else, from today onwards, if you hand over this kind of vague account book again, I will be the first to ask you!" Li Jing flipped through the account book, his brows gradually furrowed, and he pointed to one of the pages and said, "The Third Brigade actually issued 7,200 taels of food and salary this month, and the garrison moved and allocated 2,100 taels of carriage and horses, how was this figure calculated?" ”

No wonder his mother's silver was spent like flowing water, and so much money and food was spent on a single garrison migration, which really made Li Jing a little angry, and immediately threw the account book in front of Li Denggao, "If you can't come up with a reasonable explanation, don't blame the ruthless military law!" ”

Li Denggao picked up the account book before cautiously coming up and explaining, "My lord, the Third Brigade now has 5,500 men, including 4,100 regular soldiers, and more than 100 people led by the Shi Chang team. ”

Li Denggao originally thought that this explanation would satisfy Li Jing, but he didn't want to hear another roar, and he was almost frightened and didn't dare to answer, "Hmph! Then tell me, where did this paperwork and paper write-off come from?! ”

But this is not over, Li Jing remembered something again, and suddenly became angry, and reprimanded heavily, "You sent the account books before, and wrote off the total amount of three hundred and twenty taels of silver for all military documents, military salaries and miscellaneous items in the army, and now you are repeating the write-off in this item, is it not that I am ignorant?!" ”

This is still Li Jing took advantage of his spare time, specially sent the documents of the first battalion of the guards to review, and the conclusion reached really annoyed Li Jing, only a few months of hard work, and then he learned all the methods of corruption in the Ming army, and the means of corruption in the Ming army were still varied, which made Li Jing, who claimed to build a new army, embarrassed.

"I order you to come up with a means to completely eliminate this kind of thing within three days, and then pursue the additional expenses of document transcription from among the various armies, if not, don't blame me for being unkind!" Li Jing doesn't want his army to fall into a muddy pond where 3,000 is allocated backwards and 1,000 is actually issued, what is the difference between that and the Ming army?!

"Yes, yes!" Li Denggao wiped his sweat and nodded his head, and scolded all those documents in his heart, originally said that he didn't know about this at all, and that was also to coax others, as the logistics director of the begging army, how could he not know? But those clerks complained in front of him day and night, saying that they were busy with official business and lacked skills, and they needed to ask someone who knew a little bit to help.

In order to speed up the payment of food and salaries to various armies and not delay Li Jing's reorganization of the army, Li Denggao has no such thing as turning a blind eye, isn't it just spending an extra few hundred taels of silver every month? It is enough to show his face in front of Li Jing and praise him for his good management of the army.

But how did he know that there is a shortage of talents in the begging army now, but there is no shortage of these documents that know a few big characters and copy and write, and the documents that Li Jing rationed to the various armies, as long as they are willing to do their duty, there is no unfinished task, and now is not a war period, where are there so many miscellaneous items to deal with? They are complaining about their legitimate corruption.

Li Jing, who knew all this, was really angry this time, and said murderously, "Start with the second and third brigades of Xin County and Dai County, and give the order to go down, and within two days, don't hand over the silver that is greedy for ink, once it is confiscated, there will be no forgiveness!" It is necessary to resolutely defeat the cancer in this army, and order all armies and military justice teams to take care of this matter in the future and completely prevent similar things from happening! ”

Li Denggao was completely frightened by his appearance, and listened to him say in a deep voice, "We must find out where the two thousand and one hundred taels of silver are used, and we must find out why there are so many expenditures, and we must find out why there are so many expenditures!" If there is a next time, let me find that you have stretched out your hand inside, and I will not remember the love of the same clan! ”

"Obey the Lord's command." Li Denggao was glad in his heart, and secretly escaped the catastrophe, thinking that he was in charge of logistics, approving and distributing the overall salary, and seeing so much silver in front of him, how could he not be tempted, just this time, the third brigade moved to the station, and the people below gave him more than three hundred taels, anyway, thinking that Li Jing was also his nephew, and it would be no big deal to take it.

However, at the moment, Li Jing hates this kind of thing, and if he wants to take it in the future, I am afraid that he will have to hide it, which is also the reason why Li Denggao shirks the implementation of the new accounting method, after all, the new accounting method is clear at a glance, and it is not so easy to think of fraud.

"Uncle clan, now you and I are tied to the big boat of the beggar army, if you draw a plank today, I draw a plank, and take it all back to my own home, how can this boat not leak? I have also decided to set up overseers in all armies and localities, and those who dare to stretch out their hands will not be spared! Li Jing couldn't help but sigh when he saw him bowing his head and contemplating.

In the past, Li Denggao and himself were of the same mind in everything, and they did their best to do their own orders, but people were a little careful, Li Denggao, who had always been a peasant, had no resistance to fields and silver, and how could he not know about the fact that he had forcibly occupied dozens of acres of land at home? But who calls everything new now, and there are no rules?

In this way, seeing that he didn't dare to raise his head because of what he said, he thought of his past merits, and continued, "Everything starts today, Uncle Clan, as an example of the army, don't make a mistake, call me Brother Li Maoxian There is an explanation, Uncle Clan has always worked hard, I have ordered craftsmen to build a mansion in the city, give it to Uncle Clan as private property, and allocate another 30 acres of good paddy fields to Uncle Clan?" ”

At the beginning of the army, it was naturally better to be thrifty, but now, the slogan has been shouted, and most of the farmers below have been benefited, and the land has been divided, even if there is a little bit of greed for ink, but after all, it is still integrated into the begging army system, and will not be co-opted by the imperial court again.

But what about these generals? They sit in high positions and command hundreds of soldiers and horses, they are no longer following themselves for a mere dozen acres of land, and faith cannot be eaten, even if they used to follow themselves just to eat a full meal, but now? Can you just eat a full meal?

Only the ever-expanding ambitions and interests, this is eternal, if they are still required to be the same as themselves, dedicated to the public, not for gold and silver, sooner or later the next person will have to rebel, take your life to fight is not just to enjoy, it seems that whether it is a commercial bank or a supervision system, it should be implemented as soon as possible, can not be called the whole army quickly eroded into a local warlord army, they still have a great cause to complete!
