What is the most important thing to take down a companion capital?

Yes, that's right! It is to count the treasury and see how much can be gained from this battle. Especially for Liang Shanbo, who is in financial crisis, whether the seizure in front of him is rich or not is related to the development speed of the cottage in the following days.

"This is all the silver deposited in the treasury of the Daimyo's Mansion?" Seeing the details in the library, Wang Lun was very disappointed. In the past two years, I have seen some of the world, but the dignified mansion of the Great Song Dynasty, the Beijing City of the Great Song Dynasty, the inventory of these gold, silver and copper coins is not much more than the heyday of the inventory of their own cottage vaults, which is really strange.

Xu Guanzhong saw that Wang Lun was a little disappointed, and turned around and asked someone to bring Wang Wancang up, this person is the Taishou of the Daimyo Mansion, even if he is a greedy villain, but he is a parent official of a mansion, and he knows some inside information, and it is good to ask him about the affairs of the city.

The trembling prefect Wang's mansion was brought up by two majestic guards, and when he saw Xu Guanzhong at this time, he quickly knelt down and said, "Xu Zhuangshi, the lower officials know that they are wrong, they know that they are wrong!" I shouldn't have framed Dr. Ma, it's just that there are old and young officials, if the officials die, this family will be ruined, and you will beg for your life! ”

"Do you know this too? You hurt Dr. Ma alone, but you didn't hurt his family!? Xu Guanzhong didn't pay attention to the ugly prefect in front of him, and only said: "This is the leader of my cottage, he has something to ask you!" ”

Wang Wancang saw that he said, and bowed to Wang Lun again: "King, king, Kan Wei was also born as a scholar, and Xia Guan was also born out of more than ten years of hard study, let's ...... We are born from the same root, so why be in a hurry to fry each other! ”

When Wang Lun saw this, he almost spit out a mouthful of old blood, and said, "Xiaosheng doesn't dare to climb your prefect!" Come on, don't be idle, let me ask you, how much silver is there in the treasury of this daimyo's mansion? ”

Wang Wancang saw that he dared to slack off. I can't wait to say everything I know in my heart, so that the person in front of me can look up at him, and hurriedly say: "In the past six months, the wine tax is 113,117 guan 300 wen, the commercial tax is 25,108 guan 540 wen, and the 600 dao has realized more than 237,000 yuan, and it hasn't been touched at all!" ”

"The famous mansion, the treasury is so much money!? Less than 380,000? Where are the other inputs used? Wang Lun remembered that Cai Jing's salt and tea law was reformed, and the annual profit was calculated in tens of millions of yuan, and the money was collected from all over the country, and there was no bank account to remit directly at this time. You have to go through the state, right?

"The king came unlucky this time...... Soon after the year, in order to share the worries of the official family, the left-behind minister took the initiative to contribute a sum of about 4 million yuan in finance and taxes to Beijing, because the inventory was empty at this time! Wang Taishou wiped the cold sweat on his head, and didn't dare to hide it at all.

Xu Guanzhong saw that this person remembered the wine tax and business tax very clearly, and they were accurate to the fraction of the back, and secretly thought that this person was probably broken, but his brain was not broken, so he immediately asked: "Send them to the Beijing master for the enjoyment of the official family." What do you spend? What are these four million? ”

"The big head is the balance of the treasury over the years, and the small head is half a year's income from salt, tea and other miscellaneous taxes!" Wang Taishou replied cautiously.

Wang Lun was deep in thought when he saw this, but at this time Xu Guanzhong asked: "My Daimyo Mansion is no better than other state capitals, and as usual, a considerable proportion of the finance and taxes must be withheld for emergencies. Why did Liang Zhongshu dare to send such a large sum of money to Tokyo?

"Who's to say it isn't! At that time, Xia Guan persuaded the minister to stay behind, my famous mansion is an important town in Hebei, and Beijing in the Great Song Dynasty, if it is a war with Liao. Money and grain must be allocated from my house, and besides, the rivers in my territory are dense, and the rivers are dredged every year. If you don't leave some treasury money, there will be a big mess at the critical moment, but where will he listen? Because he is the boss of the lower officials, and he is also the errand of the transfer envoy of the East Hebei Road, this is all within his authority, and it is useless for the lower officials to say it! "The king is bitter. Later, I heard him mutter:

"This money is all for the official family to build a garden, and it is all a fair and honest account, and in the future, there will be someone from the household department and the three divisions and yamen to check, who dares to chase after the official? What's more, he hasn't embezzled a penny in this, who is afraid of investigating? Besides, if Taishi Cai is in power, it is impossible for anyone to be full and ask for trouble! ”

When Xu Guanzhong heard this, he scolded: "Take the state tax to curry favor with the officials, but it is to go through the door for yourself, and Liang Shijie can be regarded as a good official!" I'm afraid that in the eyes of the officials, such a person is a national cadre! ”

Wang Taishou was speechless, peeking to see the scholar who was dressed in white, but had never spoken, and looked at it for a long time, only to feel that although this person was young, he also had some city government, and he couldn't see joy and anger on his face, he lowered his head and thought for a while, and took the initiative to speak: "Several kings, although my famous mansion does not have much silver, but the people are rich, and Lu Junyi, the richest man in our city, has no less than millions of ......."

"Fart! Lu Junyi is my cottage acquaintance, you dare to hurt our righteousness and instigate me to rob him!? Jiao Ting said angrily, "Brother, kill this guy, what are you leaving him to do?" ”

"Don't say that I, Liangshan, came here for Lu Yuanwai this time, even if I don't know him, it is impossible to seize the people's assets for no reason, you only think that my brother and you and other silverfish are the same kind of people?" Xu Guanzhong glanced at Wang Taishou, he was a person from his own house, and seeing that this Taishou only cared about gossip and detours, his heart was only like a mirror.

Wang Taishou patted the horse's hooves, his heart was full of remorse, and when he was panicking, he suddenly heard Xu Guanzhong say again: "You are dying, and you are not honest!" I only ask you, my name is sericulture, and it is also famous in the whole country, and even the Khitan people call my famous mansion 'Ayajuanzhou', and you don't say anything about the raw silk and silk hidden in the treasury, but you lead me to rob the people, what kind of heart do you have? ”

Wang Taishou "poof", knelt on the ground, and cried: "The lower officials are confused, the lower officials are confused, thinking that the king only needs money, so he will be wrong!" ”

Wang Lun looked at the ungrateful performance of the Wang Governor's Mansion, suddenly smiled, and said to the Wang Governor's Mansion: "Although we are rough people in the mountains and fields, we don't just recognize money!" This famous mansion is my Great Song Dynasty Beijing, since I came, I can't come in vain, I have to bring something back as a souvenir, the military advisor said right! ”

Xu Guanzhong smiled, seeing that it was not early, and he didn't want to be entangled with this guy more, he said: "I have two horse supervisors in the Daimyo Mansion, a granary, a warehouse, and a tax warehouse in the city, how much do you know?" ”

When Wang Wancang heard this, he collapsed to the ground, thinking that these people had broken the city. It won't take long to retreat, how do you know that the bottom line is for the other party to find out, it seems that you will not give up if you don't achieve your goal, whether you say it or not, the other party will take it yourself, at most it is a matter of length of time, think about this section clearly, Wang Wancang made a decision in an instant, only to see him gritted his teeth and said:

"What Xu Zhuangshi said is wrong. In fact, there are not only two horse prisons in my Daimyo Mansion, but there are actually three, but the third is in the territory of Zhaozhou. The first prison is divided into 4,000 to 4,500 horses, the second prison is 3,000 to 3,500 horses, and the Guangping horse prison in Zhaozhou is about 3,000...... I have nearly 90,000 official horses in the eighteen squares of the Great Song Dynasty, and my Daimyo Mansion accounts for more than 10% of the ......"

Wang Lun gasped, not counting the number of grazing in the territory of the Ming Mansion. It is about 8,000 horses, which is the sum of the number of horses owned by the six battalions of the horse army of Liangshan plus the two battalions of the garrison. But even if you take fifty percent of the number, there are about 4,000 horses, not to mention that there is also a horse supervisor in Zhaozhou beckoning to him.

"Go on!" Wang Lun calmed down his rather excited mood and gave Wang Wancang, who was very cooperative, an encouraging smile.

"The storehouses of the armor and the granaries are all in the city. In the ...... respectively, since the prefect Wang confided the truth, he no longer concealed it, but at this time, Xu Guanzhong waved his hand and said: "I know all these locations." You only pick up what I don't know! In addition, is there a forbidden army on duty in each horse supervisor? ”

"No...... No, it's all a few soldiers who are doing chores there, and there are less than a thousand people in total! It's just that the situation in the territory of Zhaozhou, the villain can't remember clearly! Wang Wancang wiped the cold sweat on his head, and when he saw Xu Guanzhong nodding slightly, he listened to him continue: "The armor of this mansion bears the supply of the entire Hebei Road Forbidden Army, and at this time there are about 50,000 sets of armor in reserve, and countless blades, bows and crossbows......

"What are the 50,000 sets of armor, how many bows and arrows, and how many bows and arrows? Are there any large crossbows for defending the city? Wang Lun asked about the details.

"This ...... Xia Guan really can't remember, Xia Guan ...... Xiaguan ...... I'm really not sensitive to these things......" Wang Wancang said with a smile.

"That's it! To the best of your knowledge, go on! "This Wang Wancang said that the money and grain taxes came from the Tao, and he could be accurate to the text, but when he mentioned armaments, he was a little dumbfounded, and it seemed that this guy was afraid that he had the common disease of the civil officials of the Great Song Dynasty and looked down on the military. Wang Lun didn't force him at this time, and when the time came, he would know the clues.

Wang Wancang arched his hand at Wang Lun, and then said: "The warehouse where the silk is stored is Liang Shijie's forbidden body, not to mention other officials, even the lower officials can't interfere, and they don't dare to interfere, only Liang Zhongshu knows the most about this matter, but the following officials don't know the details!" When the morning dawns, the kings will go to count it in person, and they will know! ”

Seeing that the leaders in front of him only nodded and did not speak, Wang Wancang swallowed his saliva and said: "In addition, Xiaguan remembers that the granary was repaired in Xining for ten years, and according to the will, it was built according to the scale of 4.5 million stones. It's just that for more than 30 years, the granary has not been able to fill the warehouse, and now there should be less than three million stones! ”

"Three million stones!? When Liang Zhongshu came to my Daimyo Mansion as an official, I had just been promoted to martial arts that year, but I also knew a little about this grain reserve, and it was still maintained at the level of 3.8 million stone at that time, yes or no! I saw Xu Guanzhong shoot the case. This man picks up a lot of irrelevant past events, and when it comes to the critical moment, he wants to be confused, how can he not be angry.

Wang Wancang was suppressed by Xu Guanzhong's words, and he was drenched in cold sweat for a while, unable to speak.

"How many stones are less than three million stones? Where does the rest of the food go? Wang Lun said in his heart that when these officials were slurred, they were afraid that hundreds of thousands of stones of grain would be skipped by them, and Liang Zhongshu would only be an official in the Daimyo Mansion for a few years at most, and he would lose nearly a million stones of grain reserves.

"More than 2.7 million is less than 28 hundred, most of them were sent out during disaster relief...... Wang Wancang said the most, his voice became smaller and smaller, he knew that Xu Guanzhong was a local, and he took out the guise of disaster relief, he must not be able to hide it, but without an explanation, it can't be said that he and Liang Zhongshu teamed up to steal and sell greedy ink? Even though his face has been specially forged, he still can't help but be embarrassed when he talks about such pickled things. (To be continued......)
