Chapter 678: Ahead
Most of the people who went out to patrol with them in the Criminal Division were newcomers, and many of them were only two or three years old, and Yang Kai alone was more qualified.
Gu Yanzhang ordered Yang Kai to take a few people to check the treasury, and he divided the remaining manpower to check the regular position, one is to check the storage, the other is to check the account books, he buried his head in this place for a few days, and did not give any reaction, only acted step by step, so that Chen Ducai, the county governor of Yongqiu, saw it in his eyes, and finally was not as nervous as before, and began to come over once or twice a day, and when he got to the end, he only came over every day to answer a word and ask what he wanted to answer, if not, he would excuse that there was something in the yamen and no longer stay.
Seeing that the days were passing day by day, early this morning, Chen Du arrived at the Chang Closing Position, greeted Gu Yanzhang, and said a few words to the rest of the subordinates in the Criminal Division, and asked if there was any major event, so he retreated as before, saying that he would go to the county government to arrange the autumn harvest and taxes, and left with a reason.
However, this time it was different from usual, he only stepped into the front office with his front foot, and he was already a staff member who walked quickly head-on.
Seeing that Chen Ducai was followed by all familiar officials, none of them had a fresh face, and they didn't think so much, so they stepped forward and lowered their voices: "County Zun, Zhongmu County has news ......."
He had just gotten up, Chen Ducai immediately tightened his brows, swept him with his eyes, and did not stop under his feet, did not turn his head, let alone answered, and only strode to the back.
The staff was in a hurry, and it was inevitable that he was a little out of proportion, but at this time, seeing Chen Ducai's attitude, he hurriedly stopped his mouth and hurriedly followed the person to the back office. The two of them entered the public hall one after the other, and the messenger who had already followed behind covered the door, leaving the two alone.
The staff member walked up to Chen Ducai and said in a low voice: "County Zun, someone from the county next door is calling, and the grain store said that the grain sent a few days ago will increase in price......
Chen Ducai touched the teapot with one hand, and just had time to pour a cup of tea for himself, when he suddenly heard this sentence, he was careless, his wrist was crooked, and before the teapot could be put back in its original place, it was already "bang" and smashed on the table.
However, this time he didn't bother to pay attention to it, so he hurriedly asked, "What does it mean that the price of grain should rise?" Where is the original deed? ”
The staff member had a bitter look on his face and said, "The grain store only says that it will be compensated according to the price......
Seeing that Chen Ducai's face was ugly, he didn't dare to listen to his questioning anymore, so he hurriedly took out the deed that had been prepared earlier, handed it over to the other party, and added: "The villain can see the person, go back and count a few rounds, and check it again, if it is compensated according to the price, it is just a thousand losses......
Chen Ducai had no time to listen to the staff, tore through the deed, and looked down carefully.
The more he looked, the darker his face became, he raised his head and asked sharply, "Where is the person?" ”
The staff member hurriedly said: "I came to deliver the message in the morning, and now it's gone......"
Chen Ducai frowned, and a burst of anger rushed from his heart, almost wanting to burn the deed paper.
It turned out that he had served as an official in Yongqiu County for more than two years, because of his good ability and ease of governance, he had already governed the top and bottom like an iron bucket, but in the past, although this county was also near Gyeonggi, in the end, the population and taxes were not much, and it could not be called prosperous commerce and trade at all.
He used to be an official in foreign countries, and he didn't get a lot of benefits, but now that he has returned to Gyeonggi, everyone else says that it is a good shortage, but for Chen Ducai, the lack of wealth is not good, where is the good shortage? He is old, and it is impossible to go further with the official character and official position, such a place of restraint, others think that it is good, for him, there is only bad, not good, if he is not allowed to enter the hall, after a few years, it will be an end in the official position in Beijing.
Chen Ducai has been an official for many years, and due to various reasons, he was originally extremely talented, but at the moment he is only from the eighth grade, not to mention entering the hall and entering the cabinet, if he wants to become an official, it depends on whether there is a great creation in the last few years to chase after him.
If you can't be promoted to official rank, is there any other person who is sent to you, and in front of the Son of Heaven, you haven't shown your face at all, how much money can an official from the eighth rank have after giving office?
Don't say that when you return to your hometown, you want to raise your own dozen or so children in the family, which is just a dream.
Eating and drinking Lazar is secondary, and the son always has to study and enter the office? Without money, with his own petty official, where can he go to worship a famous teacher? My daughter has to get married? If there is no money, where can you save a good dowry? Let's not talk about whether you can find a good family for a few daughters, but if you don't have a good dowry, and now there is a trend of marrying everywhere, which family will be willing to treat you well?
Chen Ducai was originally active behind the scenes, and what he wanted was not to seek the difference of Yongqiu County, but there was a mistake in the middle, so he had to come here. He sat on the mountain and ate more than two loads, and repeatedly tried to find a way to replace the vacancy, but he couldn't do anything, and at the end of last year, in addition to Yulu, he only got 120,000 yuan.
In the past, it was so pitiful that the amount was so small, seventy or eighty thousand yuan was unbearable, but now it has shrunk to such a point, it is simply unthinkable for him, he can't even sleep well at night, and several times he dreamed that he was back when he was a child, hungry and selling vegetables on the street, and he didn't wash the yellow leaves that the people on the side peeled off and didn't wash, but only stuffed them into his mouth and ate them raw, and his mouth was full of stinky green smell, and when he woke up in fright, his stomach was nauseous.
I held it like this for two years, but fortunately, he was willing to do it, he heard the wind in the south, and heard that the court was interested in choosing a place in the town of Gyeonggi County to do a regular position, and his heart immediately became active, and it happened that Yongqiu County was indeed the most suitable place, and he also operated in the back, found a person who could speak, and finally settled the matter.
Since the day of the closure of the warehouse, Chen Ducai skillfully used the magic method, just like the fool moves the mountain, the ants carry it, and the grain and silver money in the Changping warehouse can be transported out little by little, he sells the grain, and the silver money is taken out for profit.
It's just that he still has a little sense of proportion in his heart, thinking that there is a pattern on the cloth, and he is afraid that it will not be possible to find the same one to send back in the future, so he didn't touch the cloth.
This time, the criminal department came to inspect in advance, and he tried his best, but he could only barely scrape together a lot of money, but the grain was not enough - at this time, there were still two months before the autumn harvest, and the DPRK was raising military rations, and many grain merchants would rather hold the grain in their hands than sell it, and just wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to send a very vegetable at this time.
Chen Du had no choice but to use the mouths of others to negotiate with those grain merchants, not to buy, but to rent, according to the price of how many stones, how much copper a day, from their place to temporarily borrow the grain, wait until the people in the criminal division can deal with it, and then return the grain.
This not only satisfied the grain merchant's idea of not wanting to sell the grain in his hands, but also told him to send the criminal department away first, and he didn't have to give too much money - you know, he really can't move much, and most of the money is still out of profit.
It's just that he couldn't have imagined that he had calculated it well, but for some reason, those grain merchants outside would have to take back the grain in advance.
Holding back the anger in his heart, he said to the staff, "Go and tell the people who come that I will pay twice the price, and ask them to put the grain here for the time being......
The criminal department has been investigating for so long, but only found some mildew, sand, ash, and deflated valleys, although there are a little more, a little ugly, and it is not too much, seeing that he is still sighing, a child is a child, he has only been a state official once, and he has never done anything, no matter how others blew it in the past, it is still limited in knowledge, but if he finds out some things on the surface, as long as he survives these few days and gets people away, everything is fine.
Don't say twice, it means to pay three times the rental money, he gritted his teeth, and he had to give it first!
As for what happens in the future, the gentleman's revenge is not too late for ten years, but let's see!
