Chapter 235: Arrears of Wages

Jia Yun couldn't help but raise his eyebrows at this time, and said, "Your Majesty didn't order the subordinates to issue a salary, why hasn't the salary been settled yet?" ”

Earlier, Jia Yun played the matter of Emperor Chongming's payment of silver, and Emperor Chongming also agreed to this matter, and handed the order to the household department, thinking that the matter was settled, and Zeng Guofan would have peace of mind if he let Zeng Guofan do the rest.

I never thought that the salary has not been issued so far, Jia Yun doesn't need to think about it, the problem is most likely to be with those household officials.

Zeng Guofan replied in a deep voice: "Uncle, the head of the household department said that the treasury has no silver, and it is necessary to wait for the tax and silver from all over the country to be handed over to the treasury before discussing the matter of paying the money in Beijing." ”

Hearing that Zeng Guofan said that the household department would wait for the tax money to be handed over before anything else, Jia Yun's face sank, and he said coldly: "At the beginning of the month, the tax money in Jiangnan was not handed over to the treasury, how can you still say that the treasury has no silver, Boyo, what is going on." ”

At the end of the year, the tax silver from all over the country was successively sent to Beijing, and the first batch was the tax silver in Jiangnan, Jiangnan is a place of ointment, and the amount of tax silver is naturally huge, so the delivery team of the big battle, Jia Yun will not know about it no matter how ignorant he is.

As for the character of his subordinates, Jia Yun still knows, Zeng Guofan is reliable, and if the matter of salary is handed over to him, he will definitely take care of it, and if the matter is not done at this time, there will definitely be a problem.

Zeng Guofan replied: "The head of the household department said that he would wait for the tax and silver to be verified and handed over to the state treasury before the salary could be issued. ”

Jia Yun didn't say anything when he heard this, after all, what he said was not bad, the tax and silver must indeed be handed over to the treasury first, and then issued by the treasury.

The treasury has a special supervisor, a langzhong, two foreign officials, a treasurer, two ambassadors, and a pen post and treasury envoys, and a number of treasury under their jurisdiction, and the precautions are very strict.

The treasury has detailed management regulations: "Where the province pays taxes and loses the ministry, there is a constant in the year, and the audit is not defective, but the treasury is transferred." If there is cheating and untruthfulness, the person who is guilty of the seal. ”

Tax silver handed over to the bank, is the user of the scale to measure the silver, the fineness is insufficient, do not collect, how many, a few taels of money, not based on the number of silver sent to the unit scale, but to the scale of the silver treasury shall prevail, so it can ensure that the amount of silver deposited in the treasury is absolutely correct, and it will be sent out in the future, and the scale set by the user department will be weighed by the treasury personnel.

With a deep groan, Jia Yun spoke: "The tax money sent at the beginning of the month, this is almost the middle of the month, and it hasn't been accounted for yet, so it's nonsense!!! ”

Although the salary has to go through the necessary procedures of the state treasury, it has been less than half a month, and no matter how much it should be accounted for, how can it be so delayed?

Is it that the household officials are procrastinating, or are these ministers playing with their hearts? Jia Yun felt that the latter was extremely likely.

Sure enough, when everyone in the hall saw Jia Yun's faintly angry look, Liu Jue among them got up and whispered: "Uncle, you don't have to be angry, the New Year is over, and those civil officials will also pay New Year's salaries, they always stick to them first, and the rest will be our so-called "rough people", which is a common practice." ”

It has always been common for civilian officials to despise military attachΓ©s, so many Chinese officials in the DPRK will privately shout that military generals are rough people, and they all know this, but they will not say it in public.

When Jia Yun heard this, he immediately understood, whether it was money or money, these things were in the hands of the civil ministers, since this was the case, it must be close to himself, the taxes of the Great Qian Dynasty were so much, if it was issued to the people in Beijing first, what if they didn't have enough civil officials?

Don't underestimate the salary of the Beijing camp, the military salary of the Great Qianchao Dynasty is not paid monthly, but once every six months, and because of the arrears of the Beijing camp in the first half of the year, if the household department wants to pay the Beijing camp, it is estimated that it will take a whole year's salary.

The Beijing camp is different from other troops, all of them are elite, and the salary is more than doubled, even according to the minimum standard, each soldier is paid two taels a month, and the Beijing camp has more than 80,000 people, plus a year's salary, which is as high as nearly two million taels, which is still not counting the cavalry, the salary of each school officer.

And according to the usual practice, the arrears are all the garrisons in various places, and the salaries of the border troops are generally not in arrears, so the treasury has already prepared the salaries of the border troops.

Jia Yun snorted coldly when he heard this, and scolded: "Your Majesty has agreed to the practice of fucking, so they can be careful." ”

Seeing Jia Yun scolding, Liu Jue stepped forward and said, "Uncle, although Your Majesty has an order, the people in the household department have the reason for accounting for tax money, which is also unreasonable. ”

Jia Yun understood what Liu Jue meant, although he had a holy order, but the process was there, and it was prudent to hand it over to the treasury, so naturally he couldn't be sloppy.

If Jia Yun breaks this rule first, there will be a loophole for the tax and silver to enter the treasury in the future, and for Emperor Chongming, it is important to divide it carefully.

Jia Yun pondered for a moment and spoke: "I have already been in arrears, but now that the New Year is over, the salary cannot be paid, how can the soldiers below be at ease?" ”

In the feudal court, men are the pillars of the family, and the salary has been delayed for a year and cannot be distributed, so how can the soldier's family have a good year.

Niu Cheng and the others naturally knew, but this was the household department that could not get a haircut, what could they do, so they said: "Uncle, let's urge, the salary will be sent sooner or later." ”

Of course, Jia Yun knew that the salary would be sent sooner or later, and they had to say this, why did Jia Yun play the reissue of the salary of the soldiers of the Beijing camp, not to establish prestige, this year Jia Yun only took office as the envoy of the Beijing camp, and worked tirelessly to carry out an activity to rectify the Beijing camp, and replaced a lot of recruits, at this time the Beijing camp said that the salary was in arrears, isn't this a naked slap in the face of Jia Yun, if it really dragged on until the year later, he, the envoy of the Beijing camp, can still have prestige in the hearts of the soldiers of the Beijing camp?

There are clear rewards and punishments, and this is not an empty word.

Thinking of this, Jia Yun couldn't help but think that someone was stumbling behind his back, and what he wanted was to lose Jia Yun's face.

After pondering for a moment, Jia Yun said in a deep voice: "Boyo, bring your own soldiers, I will go to the household department to personally ask if these people who are in charge of money bags can do good things." ”

Everyone looked at Jia Yun's appearance, it seemed that they were planning to make trouble, Liu Jue hurriedly stepped forward and persuaded: "Uncle, the household department is busy with New Year's affairs, and it is not good to take care of it for a while, let's be considerate and considerate, and send someone to urge it." ”

Jia Yun knew that Liu Jue was admonishing not to make a big deal out of it, when it came to the benefits of tongue, they were far inferior to civilian officials, and it was their generals who would suffer according to common sense.

But Jia Yun is not afraid of suffering, snorted coldly, Jia Yun said in a deep voice: "We are military generals, understand a bullshit minister, if we don't give an explanation today, I am not afraid of making trouble in front of Your Majesty." ”

As he spoke, Jia Yun tilted his head and ordered, "Boyo, let's go, let's go to the household department." ”

Zeng Guofan pursed his lips, thinking about persuading Jia Yun not to be rash, but after thinking about it, Jia Yun was right, why did their generals take the blame for Wenchen?

Thinking of this, Zeng Guofan immediately followed..............
