In the Money and Food Department of the Ministry of Households, Chen Mo was already restless, the incident happened suddenly, he originally thought that the matter would be over if the relationship was cleared, as for the account of the hundred households of the Jinyi Wei can be calculated slowly, although he lost a sum of money, but it is better for a warrior to break his wrist than to be criticized. Bayi Chinese Network

Who knew that things would develop to this point, Chen Mo has now become the target of public criticism, he hurriedly asked some friends who are usually close friends to discuss countermeasures, but he was closed.

The imperial court ordered officials to do business, this is not a big crime, as long as you are thick-skinned, and someone will help you press it, even if the Qing Dynasty is very troublesome, it is a big deal not to go to Nanjing to retire, three or five years later, as long as there are people in the court, it will still be brought back.

But Chen Mo's mistake was to lie in public, and he was overturned, this is a moral problem. The officialdom of the Ming Dynasty, although everyone's morality may not be very good, but the word virtue is also as heavy as a thousand catties, and virtue is at a loss, who dares to have anything to do with you? You must know that there is a saying called collusion, and mixing with such a ruined person will only make you the target of public criticism.

Chen Mo, who has always been left and right, suddenly fell into unprecedented isolation, although he was still sitting in the household department, but the officials and scribes in the department actually had a tacit understanding at this time, and even walked around the bend when they saw him, and they almost pinched their noses in front of him.

Chen Mo sat behind the case, and there was a money and grain account book of Fujian Province on the case, but he was completely absent-minded now.

What will the cabinet do? What will be the attitude of Lord Tobe Shangshu, and will the colleagues in the division fall into the ground? These questions disturbed Chen Mo like a marquee.

At this moment, a scribe quickly came over with a note and said, "My lord, there is a note in the cabinet." ”

The strip is considered an unofficial document in the six cabinet departments, and sometimes some official affairs are used to bypass the procedure, but today's article, Chen Mo had a hunch that it must be related to him, so he hurriedly took it, pulled it open and took a look, and then his face was so pale that he collapsed on the chair, and the whole person seemed to be empty.

Decades of hard study, decades of Huan Hai, how difficult is this step by step? originally thought that he had achieved fame and peace of mind, but Chen Mo could not have imagined that the head of the money and food of the dignified household department would be planted in the hands of a little-known Jinyi Wei hundred.

Resignation...... Sick ......

This is the meaning of the elders, if they are not obedient, then the elders will immediately take action, indirectly use the ministry, and take the means of dismissal.

Chen Mo sighed faintly and picked up his pen......

……………………

The sky is drizzling, and the captain of the 100 households in the fireworks alley has poured out, appearing one by one in front of the door of each ** hall, this side of the fireworks alley, in addition to the ** hall, there are a lot of gambling houses, wine shops, one of the most prosperous areas in the whole Beijing Division, the 100 households have issued a notice, only need to do business in this 100 households, you have to take out a share of the money every month, from then on, here is protected by Jinyiwei.

The money is almost the rule of the entire Beijing Division, either it is Jinyiwei to collect, or it is Dongchang to take it, so this announcement is not too much, when the captains arrived at a ** restaurant, gambling house, wine shop, those who usually don't even look at Jinyiwei at this time changed their previous attitude, politely invited people in, first invited them to tea, and then called the account to get the money.

Things have been reversed, is the backstage of the Flower Pavilion hard enough? Didn't you say smash it? Even the people behind the scenes have resigned, and the Jingshi has always relied on strength to speak, how much ability to eat and how much to eat, and now everyone knows that the fireworks alley is already the final say of Jinyiwei.

Boxes of silver were sent to the Wang secretary, who was specially responsible for counting and making the book, and Liu Chengfeng, Lao Huo, and Chen Hongyu watched happily, all of them were elated.

"My lord, we're going to get rich this time, I really can't imagine that my old Huo can see so much silver today." Lao Huo did not hide his excitement, although others were timid, they knew that Wei occupied the benefits of the fireworks alley, and the Dongchang side could get at least 50,000 taels of silver from the fireworks alley every month, 50,000 taels is not a small amount, enough for everyone in the hundred households to eat and drink spicy food.

The injury on Chen Hongyu's face had subsided, and he said to Liu Chengfeng with a flattering face: "Now the brothers in the guard house say that the hundred households are wise and martial, and the brothers follow the adults, and they will not have to worry about food and clothing in this life." ”

Liu Chengfeng said with a straight face: "Don't be a sycophant, this money is earned by the brothers with me." Although he said this, Liu Chengfeng slandered in his heart: "Without me, you will not be able to earn this money in your life, and the four words of wisdom and martial arts are really appropriate for me, but I have to be reserved, I can't be proud, it's not good to be too proud." ”

Liu Chengfeng is actually very excited, 50,000 taels of silver a month, 600,000 a year, and now the income of the Ming Dynasty is only millions of taels, but the annual income of the imperial court is not included in the salt and iron tax, etc., the real income should be more than 10 million taels, but this 600,000 taels is enough to make everyone's hearts pound, no wonder Dongchang occupies a few prosperous places to be able to worry about food and clothing, it turns out that the oil and water here is so rich.

Daming does not have industrial and commercial tax, and when it really involves industry and commerce, I know how much interest there is. Fireworks Hutong is the most prosperous place in the whole Beijing Division, in and out are the wealthy nobles and rich people who spend a lot of money, Liu Chengfeng is also now knowing, what is called the poor and the people are rich, a businessman in and out of here, he dares to spend dozens of hundreds of taels of silver, and the imperial court can't even raise the salary, arrears are a common thing.

It's no wonder that Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to take Shen Wansan, Liu Chengfeng pondered in his heart: "If you are the emperor, you must copy Shen Wansan's house." ”

Now that I have money, I dare to do many things that I dare not do, at least the people in these 100 households are stable, and Liu Chengfeng, the 100 households, is considered to be stable, and with money there is prestige.

The secretary of the king chattered with the abacus beads, and finally raised his head and said, "It has been calculated, and the total is forty-seven thousand three hundred and twenty-three taels." Coupled with the property stolen from the Flower Pavilion, there are now at least more than 60,000 taels of silver in our guardhouse. Wang Si was a little trembling when he spoke, that is, when he was in a thousand households, the entry and exit of silver taels was only about a thousand taels, which was the result of the efforts of the people below to extort the people, and now there is no need to go to the people, the merchants can send money every month, and the harvest is guaranteed by drought and flood.

Liu Chengfeng took the account book and looked at it, nodded and said, "Go, gather all the captains, didn't they all say that there is no food?" Kill them today. ”

Liu Chengfeng meant that he was going to send money, and when Chen Hongyu heard it, he cheered.

As soon as they heard that the money was going to be distributed, the enthusiasm of the lieutenants naturally rose, and they rushed back from all directions after half an hour's effort, and they all gathered around the courtyard of the hundred households in anticipation and discussed happily.

Liu Chengfeng recruited all the people into the hall, more than 60 people gathered together, and then began to lecture, and then the silver received was announced, and then said: "Roughly 47,000 taels of silver per month, except for 10,000 taels to be sent to the commander on time, this hundred households get 500 taels of silver per month, the chief flag officer gets 300 taels per month, the small flag is 100 taels per month, and the rest of the captains are 50 taels each. In addition, add ten taels of silver to make up the difference, and from now on, as long as it is the brother of the guard, but if there is a birth, old age, sickness and death, there will be a pension of two silver, and as for the rest of the silver, it will be sealed for the time being. ”

Ordinary captains have fifty taels, in addition to pensions, which is already very generous, if it is in other guards, even the general flag is only such a number, and all the captains have said: "Thank you for your grace." ”

Liu Chengfeng's face stiffened again, and said: "But the ugly words are ahead, pay the guards every month, and the captain who patrols the streets can no longer extort the people, and if they find one, they will investigate and punish one." There is also that since we have taken the money from the merchants, we can't do nothing, if someone makes trouble in the merchants of this fireworks alley, we have to deal with it with hundreds of households, and no one can be lazy, don't let people think that we only know how to collect money and don't know how to do things. ”

Chen Hongyu said with a smile on the side: "This is easy to say, whoever dares to make trouble in the fireworks alley, the brothers will not agree." ”

Fireworks Hutong is the golden rooster that lays eggs in the guard, whoever comes to make trouble is equivalent to smashing everyone's jobs, everyone knows this truth, and the captains have said: "Never agree, fight for your life to maintain the fireworks Hutong." ”

Liu Chengfeng smiled and said: "We have to cheer up these days, there will definitely be action on the side of the East Factory, let's grab food in his bowl, and they can also grab it back, so don't slack off, Secretary Wang, when you arrange inspections in the past few days, send more people to Fireworks Hutong." ”

Wang said: "The villain knows. ”
