Chapter 188: Time
So Mao Xiang and the others set off directly to get the account book.
And Hu Changan also followed the little eunuch and walked towards the side hall.
Hu Changan stayed in the side hall for a while, and the account books of the ministers' families were sent over one after another by the brocade guards.
Seeing this, Hu Changan also packed up the account books in the side hall.
In the evening, the account books of all the ministers' homes were collected by the brocade guards in the side hall.
Hu Changan and Mao Xiang discussed for a while, and then decided to continue to investigate the next day.
......
The next day, Hu Changan came to the side hall early.
At this time, Mao Xiang was leading a group of brocade guards to sort out the account books.
Seeing Hu Changan coming, Mao Xiang hurriedly stepped forward: "Hu Shilang, you are finally here." β
"We've been here for a long time, so you can come over and help us take a look."
"With so many ledgers, we can't handle it."
Indeed, this is also difficult for Mao Xiang and his party.
After all, Jinyiwei is a military attachΓ©, and they are good at dancing with knives and guns, but when it comes to cultural work such as auditing accounts, they may not be good at it.
These brocade guards came to sort out the account books early in the morning, but the more they sorted out, the more messy they became, and they were so busy that they were overwhelmed.
Seeing this, Hu Changan couldn't help laughing.
Indeed, it is indeed a bit difficult to let these big and rough people handle this kind of delicate work.
However, in this eventful season, Zhu Yuanzhang only believes in the sharp blade in his hand.
Although these brocade guards are a little rougher, at least their loyalty is not to be said.
Only by letting Jin Yiwei do this matter can Zhu Yuanzhang rest assured.
Seeing this, Hu Changan hurriedly said to everyone: "Everyone, you can tie each minister's account book into a bundle with a rope to avoid falling apart." β
"Then you can arrange the books of these ministers by department and official position."
"The key investigation of the big official position, and the brief investigation of the low official position."
There are also skills in auditing.
There are many officials with big official positions who can embezzle, so it is natural to focus on inspection first.
And those officials with lowly official positions, even if they want to be corrupt, I am afraid that they will not be able to embezzle.
The account books of these petty officials can be checked later.
When the brocade guards heard this, they also suddenly realized.
What Hu Changan said is indeed reasonable.
Wouldn't it be clear that these ledgers would be self-explanatory?
And so the people began to move.
The bundle of ledgers, the classification of classifications.
Soon, a large room of ledgers was sorted into categories.
Next, it's time to start the formal audit.
Hu Changan cleared his throat and said to everyone: "Next, just calculate the total expenses of each minister for a year in turn." β
"You can inspect in groups of ten, and I think it should be about the same if you inspect a household in three days."
Hearing this, the brocade guards were all stunned.
Inspect a household in three days?
How is this possible?
Is this Hu Shilang really a skilled household official?
Besides, even if it is a well-trained official, he can't find a single household in three days!
To know the family accounts of officials, most of them are extremely cumbersome.
For example, if you buy a green vegetable today, you will buy a vase tomorrow, etc., and you have to list them one by one.
This sum alone is not a small amount.
More importantly, this audit is not only about checking the numbers on the accounts, but also about comparing the numbers on the accounts with the real situation in the officials' homes.
Because sometimes, those careful officials may deliberately keep an eye on it, and put some valuables obtained from bribes without accounting for them, and directly put them in the treasury at home.
At this time, it is necessary for people to enter the house to take inventory one by one.
This is no small project.
In the eyes of these brocade guards, checking a family in half a month is already the limit.
How dare Hu Changan say that he would check a household in three days?
On the spot, a Jinyi guard retorted to Hu Changan and said: "Hu Shilang, your subordinates know that you are eager to handle the case, but even so, you have to consider the actual situation!" β
"With so many cumbersome accounts, how can it be checked in three days?"
"I think no one in the world can check a house in three days!"
The words of this brocade guard were immediately supported by all the brocade guards present.
No one thinks Hu Changan's words are feasible.
Even Mao Xiang said to Hu Changan with an embarrassed face: "Hu Shilang, we are all rough people, we are straight when we speak, don't take it too seriously." β
"But what these little ones say also makes sense, your requirements are indeed a bit high."
"Why don't you ask for it to be lowered? As long as we work hard, Your Majesty should not blame us. β
Hearing this, Hu Changan also laughed.
If they work slowly, Zhu Yuanzhang may not be difficult for them, but Zhu Yuanzhang can't wait!
Once Zhu Yuanzhang can't wait, won't he have to kill again and go back to the old way?
Hu Changan would never allow this kind of thing to happen under his nose.
Right now, the only way to save everyone's lives is to complete the mission as soon as possible!
With the indifferent eyes of the brocade guards, Hu Changan said loudly: "Who said that no one can complete the inventory work within three days?" β
"I can!"
"Not only that, but I don't even need three days."
"Just give me two days, and I can complete an inventory of a household by myself!"
Hu Changan's words were not too polite.
But this is also a helpless move.
Except for His Majesty and the commander Mao Xiang, these brocade guards basically did not accept anyone.
If you want the brocade guards to return to their hearts in the fastest time, you can only shock them fiercely.
After all, people are all strong, especially these generals, even more so.
When everyone heard this, they were shocked.
They never expected that Hu Changan looked honest and was so arrogant in his heart!
In two days, one person has checked a household?
It's a fantasy!
At that moment, someone questioned: "Hu Shilang, you shouldn't choose the easiest household to inspect, right?" β
"If you deliberately choose the easiest household to inspect, then we are not convinced!"
When Hu Changan heard this, he also smiled slightly and said, "I won't do such a boring thing." β
"You will decide which one to investigate."
Looking at Hu Changan's confident appearance, everyone was speechless.
This Hu Chang'an is inevitably too confident.
The good thing to say is self-confidence, and the ugly thing is to be blind and arrogant!
Even the commander of the Jinyi Guard, Mao Xiang, couldn't help but hold his forehead when he saw this.
When Hu Changan said this, it would be difficult for him to stop it even if he wanted to.
Soon, one of the brocade guards took out a bundle of account books and said to Hu Changan: "Hu Shilang, what do you think of this family?" β
