Chapter 128 Asking for money is deadly

In the lobby of the Governor's Mansion, Yang Ming met with this old man who was quite prestigious in Jiangling County.

Anyway, Wen Yi is disabled after fighting for the country, and Yang Ming will still respect him on the surface.

So he ordered the guards to carry Wen Yi into the lobby and set up a high table in front of him with a glass of warm water on it.

It takes a lot of effort to make tea, so most of the time it is treated with water.

"When this king first came to Gangneung, he heard of the name of Duke Wen, and he came here today, but is there something?" Yang Ming said with a smile.

Wen Yi smiled and said: "The subordinate is disabled, unable to move, when His Royal Highness was in Jiangling, he failed to drag the broken body to come to congratulate, now I feel that the body is acceptable, although the descendants are blocked, but the subordinate still insists on coming to pay homage to His Highness, today to see His Royal Highness's face, it is really a blessing for three lives."

You're pretty good at saying pretty things...... Yang Ming said, "What is the position of the civil official?"

Wen Yi said: "His Majesty was once the chief secretary of the Governor's Mansion of His Royal Highness the King of Han."

Yang Ming came again: "What is your current position?"

Wen Yi: "There is no official position today."

Yang Ming smiled: "Since you have no official status, why do you call yourself a subordinate?"

Wen Yi was stunned for a moment and was speechless.

What does he mean? Why care about a title? I used to be an official, and I call myself a minister?

Of course

There is no such provision in the Kaihuang Law, but Yang Ming is willing to take this with you, what can you do?

Yang Ming said with a smile: "If you have no official position, you are white, you need to be cautious in the words used by the public of Wen, the common people are called ministers, and there is a suspicion of trespassing, of course, this king is just reminding you."

Boy...... This kid is not simple, a few simple sentences, Wen Yi is already empty, and sure enough, the royal family is all good to get along with.

How old is this kid in front of you? I was stunned.

This son is difficult.

Wen Yi hurriedly said, "It was the fault of the small people, but fortunately His Highness corrected it, so it would not become a big mistake."

"Knowing that mistakes can be corrected, and it is very good, but ...... This king has to correct you a little," Yang Ming said, waving his hand at the guard, who handed Wen Yi a scroll of paper.

After Wen Yi took it, he roughly swept the content on it, and immediately panicked.

The text of the scroll is a record of the land he received from the yamen of the county government in that year, and it is clearly written that he received 20 tilts of the office, that is, 2,000 mu.

It's not good...... Wen Yi instantly became nervous, and his little heart fluttered.

He used to be only a seven-pin from the seventh grade, and the field was sixty acres, and the excess was also added privately because he was the head of the mansion and got the acquiescence of the king of Han.

I didn't expect it to be turned out now, is this little highness going to fix me?

Wen Yi hurriedly explained:

"This field is a reward from His Royal Highness the King of Han, and the little people will not dare to change it privately."

The smile on Yang Ming's face disappeared instantly, and he said sharply, "You mean, King Han will reward you with twenty tilts of Gongqi Tian?"

The fields of the public house cannot be rewarded, these fields are used for the daily official expenses of the government, and the officials in the yamen rely on these fields for food.

In the early years of the emperor's reign, the state, county, and county of the world were divided into nine grades, and each level of public land was different, Jiangling County belonged to the upper and lower counties, and the public land should be two hundred tilts, but in fact, the government should occupy about four or five hundred tilts.

And after Wen Yi left office, he still took twenty and did not pay it back, which is the sin of losing his head.

He felt more and more that he couldn't be good today, so he hurriedly moved out of the Han King Yang Liang to top it, but he didn't expect the other party's last question to make him unable to answer.

Nod? That is the king of Han breaking the law, and if he doesn't nod, he is breaking the law.

So he was dumb.

Seeing that the fire was almost over, Yang Ming asked again, "When will Gong Wen's twenty acres of land be returned?"

Wen Yi hurriedly said, "I'll return it tomorrow."

Yang Ming said again: "Your position is 60 acres, when will the difference be returned?"

Join your mother...... This is

Want to settle old accounts with me?

Wen Yi hesitated and said, "This ...... This one...... This one...... Well......

"Don't do this?" Yang Ming smiled and said, "If it is really granted by the King of Han, this king will definitely not study it in detail."

As if grasping at a life-saving straw, Wen Yi hurriedly nodded and said, "It is indeed granted by His Royal Highness the King of Han."

"Really?" Yang Ming nodded, and said to Duan Chou, the chief administrator in the hall, "Write a letter immediately and send it to the Jinyang Han Palace's mansion in the name of this king, asking about the authenticity of this matter."

Duan Chou nodded, and wrote with a pen.

This person was asked by Yang Ming from the county guard's office, and he turned out to be the chief bookkeeper of Jiangling County, and he wrote good words and articles.

Seeing this, Wen Yi was completely stunned, if this matter was stabbed to the King of Han, the King of Han would definitely deny it, and at that time, it would not be the crime of privately embezzling the public land, and if it didn't work, it would be a raid.

So he waved his hand desperately, if it weren't for his lameness, he would have been able to stand up now,

"No, no, no, it's not granted by His Royal Highness the King of Han, it's the greed of the small people for a while, Your Highness has bypassed me......

Yang Ming leaned back and sneered again and again.

"I will pay it back tomorrow, I will pay it back tomorrow, and the difference will be returned tomorrow," Wen Yi said with a sad face.

Yang Ming won't want his life now, because he hasn't seen the money, when the other party's money is spit out, let's talk about it.

In fact, this kind of person is not something that can be killed casually, and it is necessary to take care of other people's feelings.

After killing Wen Yi this time, will everyone in the other clans be in danger?

It's not good, I'm just asking you for money, not for your life.

So Yang Ming nodded and said, "At this time tomorrow, I will wait here, waiting for Gong Wen to hand over all the money that should be paid."

After saying that, Yang Ming shouted outward, "Someone is coming, carry him out."

......

Wen Yi, who left the governor's mansion, seemed to have walked through the ghost gate, covered in sweat, as if he had taken a bath.

They were all already in their own carriages, still trembling and trembling.

Because he has realized the seriousness of the matter, the job field is just an appetizer, and the big one is still to come.

How did the Wen family provoke this little demon king?

He originally thought that the other party could look at the face of the King of Han and let them go to the Wen family, but now that he looks at it, the face of the King of Han is a fart, and it doesn't work in front of this little Yama king.

At such a young age, who taught him to do this?

There is no one behind the scenes? No way! I've never seen such a difficult little doll.

Today, I didn't talk about running in vain, but I also got into the blood.

Wen Yi suddenly felt that he had a feeling of being in the mouth of a tiger this time......

......

The subordinate officials of the governor's office shall be made by the governor on his own according to the law.

At present, the Jingzhou Governor's Mansion only has Changshi Yuanwendu, Sima Pangniu, and Duan Chou, the main book.

Still missing: pawn signing, sacrificial wine engagement, gold, households, soldiers, law, scholars and merit, cangdu, city order, etc.

Among them, let's not talk about the pawn, the pawn is the eunuch sent by the emperor to the prince and the state assassin, named the pawn clerk, responsible for things like the sparse, in fact, it is to monitor you.

Yang Ming didn't have a pawn by his side, as for why he didn't, he had to ask Yang Jian and Dugu Jialuo.

As for the sacrificial wine, he is in charge of the merits of gold, households, soldiers, laws, and scholars.

Jin Cao, in charge of currency, salt and iron affairs.

Hu Cao, in charge of households, ancestral shrines, and agricultural affairs.

Soldiers, in charge of armaments, weapons, and defense.

Fa Cao, palm mail delivery, judicial affairs.

Shi Cao, Zhangtu Gong, Gongyi, Jinliang (ferry bridge), boat, car, crafts.

As for the cangdu, this is very easy to understand, that is, the warehouse management.

Market order, in charge of market transactions.

These are all subordinate officials of the royal palace, and the left members below them can be appointed by themselves, because the left members have no rank, general

It's three to five, and there are seven or eight, and as long as you have the money to pay people's salaries, you can raise twenty.

For these vacant positions, except for the temporary position of Cangdu, Xu Jing temporarily filled, the other Yang Ming wanted to choose slowly.

Because these people will become his team like Li Jingfang Xuanling in the future, they have to be cautious.

As for whether the lack of personnel will affect official duties?

Answer: No, because most of the official affairs have already been dealt with locally, and if those assassin county guards don't even have the consciousness to share Yang Ming's worries, they will not be suitable to be officials.

And the main task of the function of Jingzhou governor is actually only one: there is no rebellion in the jurisdiction.

Other than that, no one cares about what you like.

Yang Yinjiang, who went out for the first time, is no longer a housemaid, like a wild horse, not in the house all day, leaving early and returning late, very punctual.

When the meal arrives, she will surely return, like a cat smelling meat.

At first, she was not used to eating the cuisine of the Gangneung area, but now she is used to it and is quite addicted.

But for some reason, she didn't like to see Gao Yue very much, every time she saw it, her nose was not a nose and her eyes were not eyes, so she never gave anyone a good face.

Even Chen Shuyi was puzzled, and asked Yang Ming in private, did they have any enmity?

Yang Ming directly refuted Chen Shuyi, don't care about these trivial things, you have a task on you, you should care about what secrets Gao Yue is hiding.

The inner warehouse of the governor's mansion was already half full, so Yang Ming ordered Xu Jing to find some laborers to repair a few more warehouses.

The laborers will ask for some forced labor and labor from the government.

Forced labor and hard labor are ordinary people, and the common people have to serve compulsory labor every year, and forced labor, labor service, and military service are all unpaid labor, and they also need to provide their own food.

Of course Yang Ming won't let them do it in vain, he won't save this little money, and he will give it very generously.

One liter of rice per person per day, twenty yuan, and a full stomach.

With such treatment, there is no second home in Dasui.

Early the next morning, Yang Ming was still asleep when he was woken up by Xu Jing.

It turned out that Pang Niu from the front office came to report, and the lame man named Wen Yi came with money.

Yang Ming let people calculate that the rent of one acre of land is 3 stones, that is, about 200 catties. The tune is 2 zhang of silk and 3 catties of hemp.

The taxation of the Great Sui is called rent and payment, rent is to pay grain, adjustment is to hand over cloth, and Yong is to avoid the payment of grain and cloth from forced labor.

Wen Yi has been taking the 20 dumps of land for seven years, so Wen Yi should pay 5,820 stone of corn, the annual grain price is different, the average is 300 yuan per stone, and the field rent is 1,746,000 yuan, that is, 1,740 yuan.

The average calculation of a zhang of silk is 120 yuan/zhang, and the average calculation of a pound of hemp is 30 yuan/jin.

It is converted to 640,200 yuan, rounded to 650 yuan.

The rent and the adjustment add up to two thousand three hundred and ninety dollars.

That's not all, there's still mediocrity.

Yong, that is, the money that needs to be paid for non-conscription, is called more endowment, and more endowment is a lot of money, but it is not easy to calculate, because the more endowment is calculated according to Ding Nan, not according to the acres of land.

So Yang Ming casually set a number, just two thousand.

In other words, Wen Yi needs to hand over 4,390 yuan.

This amount of money is drizzly for Yang Ming, but for a small family like Wen Yi, it is a big hemorrhage.

In the courtyard in front of the mansion, dozens of people began to unpack and count, and they counted according to 4,390 yuan, not a single penny.

However, Wen Yi didn't panic at all, he didn't calculate as carefully as Yang Ming, but moved half of the family's inventory, and he also pointed out that Yang Ming could be satisfied and let him go.
