The county warehouse and armory in Jin'an County are in vain, the county warehouse is clean and can starve rats to death, and the armory only has a few rotten woods.

Wu Shuru's face was a little unbearable, and he said: "Jin'an is poor, and there is really no surplus grain in the county. ”

Mo Jun said thoughtfully: "What the Wuxian Order said is very true, Jin An is too poor and there are slang people making trouble, thanks to you to maintain today's situation." ”

Wu Shuru was called a use, and his favor for Mo Jun rose several steps.

So when Mo Jun took out two IOUs, he signed his name and seal with just a glance.

even praised him in his heart for being particular about his work, and he had to set up a note by borrowing two empty warehouses.

Sending Wu Shuru away, Mo Jun took the two notes and his face bloomed with joy.

Wen Yi was puzzled: "Mr. Mo, is this word strange?" ”

Mo Jun handed over the note, he took it and looked at it, there was no problem.

On a certain day in a certain year, a certain month, he borrowed the county warehouse and armory from Jin'an County to use, and emphasized that the warehouse was intact and undamaged, and there was nothing in it.

No matter how you look at it, it is a very normal IOU, but Mo Jun's treacherous look shows that there is a big problem with this IOU.

Where exactly is the trap?

Xie Daoyun also looked at it, first puzzled and then showed a thoughtful expression, and then praised: "Mr. Mo is clever." ”

Mo Jun said modestly: "It's just a small trick that can't be put on the table, and I don't dare to praise it as a girl." ”

Wen Yi said unhappily: "You two don't play dumb riddles, who will tell me what's going on." ”

Xie Daoyun smiled: "Mr. Mo, explain." ”

Mo Jun nodded and said, "The point of this IOU is the words that the two warehouses are empty. ”

"The imperial court collects taxes, and the counties will retain some of them, and some of them will be retained in the counties, and the rest will be handed over to the national treasury."

"The few intercepted by the county warehouse are not strictly supervised, and some of the money and grain will be taken out by the yamen for daily expenses."

"But even the most greedy officials will not empty the entire warehouse, at least a little will be left to fill the scene, which can also be used to cope with the inspection of the officials."

"The county warehouse and armory warehouse in Jin'an County are empty, this is a big crime, and if you really want to investigate it, you will be killed, and this IOU is evidence."

Wen Yi understood what was going on, but he was even more puzzled: "Wu Shuru is not a stupid person, how could he not see this, and still sign it with a seal." ”

This trap doesn't seem very clever.

Mo Jun said: "Jin'an County is located in Lingnan, which is sparsely populated, and it is dispensable in the eyes of the imperial court, as long as there is no rebellion, it will hardly care about things here." ”

"No one cares how much tax can be paid here every year, and how much grain the county treasury has. Therefore, the local officials have developed the habit of treating the money and grain in the county warehouse as their own. ”

"Every time a tax is levied, the part that is kept in the county warehouse will be privately divided into their own warehouse."

"It's been like this for decades, and they have all become accustomed to it and don't think there's anything wrong with it, that's why Wu Shuru signed his name on this IOU."

"It's a pity that he forgot, no one asked because the court was too lazy to care, and it was really a big crime to kill the head."

"When we get the tax collection book of Jin'an County in recent years, and then get the flower table, we can calculate how much grain should be in the county warehouse."

"It has always been the responsibility of the master to register and make records, and it is likely to be in Wu Yi's hands, and we can get it with an excuse."

"With this IOU, we will be able to grasp Wu Shuru's lifeline, and when the time comes, he will not dare to go west."

Wen Yi said admiringly: "Mr. Mo is clever, a certain admiration." ”

At that moment, he still looked down on the ancients with a bit of a downshit, especially the fact that he easily became the leader of the exile camp by using the knowledge of his previous life, which made him feel great.

It wasn't until Xie Daoyun gave him the idea to ask the Gu family for help that he realized for the first time that the ancients were not as simple as he thought.

Later, she showed extraordinary military talent, which made him completely sober.

As a time-traveler, he has insight beyond the times and has a different way of thinking from the ancients, but this does not mean that he is better than the ancients in dealing with specific affairs.

Compared to the elite of the times, he is nothing.

Today, Mo Jun taught him another lesson, really playing conspiracy and tricks, not to mention comparing with the bigwigs who have left a name in history, pulling anyone out may play him to death.

However, he did not think that he was inferior to the ancients.

In his previous life, he also often ran business and dealt with all kinds of people, and he didn't know a lot about people.

What he is worse than the ancients is his understanding of this era, the time he traveled through was too short, the contact area was too narrow, and he knew too little about this era.

Information asymmetry is the main reason for falling into the trap.

Xie Daoyun was born in the scholar clan and grew up in that environment since she was a child, so she came up with the idea of asking the Gu family for help.

Although Mo Jun is a criminal, his family is also a poor family, and Zhao Gongwang is also a poor family and has been an official.

Family education made him very familiar with the laws and administrative structure of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, so he was able to dig this trap for Wu Shuru.

He firmly believes that if he is given time to understand this era, he can also devise such a trap.

But in any case, through this incident, he has deeply understood that he should not underestimate the wisdom of the ancients.

With this IOU, Wen Yi's plan to control Jin'an County has taken another step forward.

After that, the three men went their separate ways.

Mo Jun went to Wu Yi and asked him for tax and expenditure data in recent years.

Xie Daoyun led two battalions of soldiers to officially take over the city defense, and by the way, he also took over the soldiers, errand soldiers, and recruited young men to defend the city.

In short, she took over the military power of Jin'an County.

Wen Yi took the rest of the soldiers to do another thing.

"Daniel Zhang."

"Here."

"You led people to post notices at various intersections and crowded places throughout the city to publicize the rules of Langhu Lake."

"Yes."

"Ma Yibai, Li Zhong, Wei Ran......"

"Here."

"You take people to help the people, clean the streets, build toilets, repair broken houses...... As long as it's work, you have to do it. ”

"Yes."

"Golden as a mountain."

"Here."

"If you lead the drama team to sing for the people, you will sing Dou E's injustice and the white-haired girl."

"Yes."

In terms of gaining the hearts of the people, Wen Yi, who has experience in his previous life, crushed all the ancients, and the above methods were all thought up by him.

In ancient times, the imperial power was not lower than that of the county, and the imperial court wanted to rule a place and relied on the local wealthy and powerful families.

This is also the reason why Wu Yi and others are making waves, they habitually think that Wen Yi wants to be the lord of Jin'an County without their support.

However, from the beginning, Wen Yi didn't take them seriously.

He wants to go beyond these wealthy and powerful households, communicate face-to-face with the people at the bottom of Jin'an County, and get their support.

It may be difficult to do this in a place where there are many people and the situation is complicated, but this is Jin'an County in Lingnan, and there are only 3,000 people in the whole city.

He had the conditions to communicate directly with the people.

Verbal propaganda plus doing good deeds plus drama, this is a wave of three blows.
