East Plant.

Li Zhang had just gone to meet the emperor, and when he came back, his face was very displeased, and after sitting down, he picked up something and threw it on the ground.

He Wei, who was in charge of the punishment of thousands of households, did not dare to disturb, and hurriedly went to the door to welcome Mu Bin, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, in.

"Governor." Mu Bin hurriedly saluted.

"Wrong, from now on, our family is no longer the governor of Dongchang, you have to change your name to Yang Peng as the governor!" Li Zhang said, "He is not in Beijing for the time being, but he is very powerful, and you have seen this person be greedy, so you will do things for him in the future." ”

Mu Bin said: "Then father-in-law, you ......"

Li Zhang said coldly: "Our family was transferred to Yansui, saying that we would return to Beijing after a year, and even the errand of the celebrant had to be handed over to others." That is, Yang Peng, Yang Gonggong is now both the master of ceremonies and the commander of the East Factory, which can be described as a spring breeze......"

Mu Bin said in his heart, why does this sound so sour?

You say it in front of Yang Peng, don't say it in front of me, I can interfere with the affairs of your big people, and I am a commander of the Jinyi Guard?

"What are you doing?" Li Zhang said angrily, "It's going to be handed over in the next two days, and our family can still manage the recent things, if you have a fart, let it go!" ”

Mu Bin hurriedly said: "That's the case, after Guo Ang went to the port, he was transferred to sea by Cai Guogong, which is said to be from the emperor's order. ”

"What's so surprising about that?" Li Zhang said, "You don't want to think about it, he is so dignified, he will be transferred over there under the command of Jinyiwei, if there is no errand on the side, wouldn't it be good to keep him in Beijing?" Beizhen Fusi is going to be handed over to someone else, and retaining his official position is not just to make it convenient for him to do things that are running around? This has to do with our family...... Alas! ”

It is equivalent to saying that our family, like that Guo Ang, has been transferred.

One went to sea, and the other went to the northwest, both of whom were unlucky people.

Immediately, Li Zhang glared at Mu Bin angrily, as if to say, why haven't you been transferred yet? Shouldn't you be the person who should be transferred out the most?

Mu Bin said: "My father-in-law has been entrusted with another reuse, and I have some intentions for my humble position, so I have asked people to prepare it, and I will send it to my father-in-law to the place you designated." Among them, there are also some thoughts of Jin merchants and Hui merchants, which will also be sent to you. ”

Li Zhang originally had a lot of opinions about Mu Bin, but when he heard this, his face suddenly softened a little and said, "You are very good at doing things." ”

Mu Bin said with a smile: "Father-in-law, you have taken good care of the brothers since you were the commander of Dongchang, and the brothers also thank you for your kindness. It's also because of you that Jinyiwei is not as timid as before. ”

"Hmph." Li Zhang said, "You were too honest before, and you don't want to think about it, who are we doing things for?" That's for Your Majesty. You have taken the benefits, remember our family, our family thinks you are still filial. ”

"Yes." Mu Bin said.

Li Zhang said again: "I see that you know that our family, although it was sent to Yansui from afar, it is not because of sin, so it will be like this, right?" ”

Mu Bin was taken aback when he heard this, and quickly explained: "There is absolutely no such intention, it is really the admiration of your subordinates." ”

"It doesn't matter, the people who have fallen have no status at all, at least our family has won the trust of His Majesty, this time it's just a matter of Your Majesty's Xie Ge Lao, let our family avoid it for the time being, and wait for our family to return to Beijing in the future, see how our family cleans up this situation!" Li Zhang was complacent.

"Yes, yes." Mu Bin could only echo the call.

"Okay, our family still has something to do, if you want to send something, just send it to our family directly to the Huangzhuang in the south of the city, and our family will find someone to receive it."

……

……

Li Zhang left the East Factory duty room.

After the people left, Mu Bin also breathed a sigh of relief, and there was a great feeling of relief, obviously in the more than a year that Li Zhang had been in power, he had been under a lot of pressure.

"Father-in-law Li was finally transferred." He Wei on the side even said with joy and joy on his face.

Mu Bin glared at him and said, "This is what you should say?" ”

He Wei said: "Lord Mu, if you don't like it, what kind of life are we living this time?" The brothers have been worried all the time, and now they have made some money, but now no one wants to see us. And also...... used to give gifts to Father-in-law Yang, and Father-in-law Yang really knew how to do things, and this Father-in-law Li ...... It's like never being satisfied, and every time the gift is finished, it's like a stone sinking into the sea. ”

"When I say this, I am looking for death." Mu Bin said coldly, "Father-in-law Li knows, believe it or not, you can't even save your life?" ”

"It's in front of you, the little one will say this, these days in Dongchang are really not people's lives, it's still better than before, although there is not much oil and water, but there is no need to worry about being calculated, it is estimated that Your Majesty also thinks that Gonggong Li is too radical, so he will transfer people away, and use extraordinary methods in extraordinary times, and now that Xie Ge Lao has been convicted and distributed, His Majesty probably doesn't need Gonggong Li to deter anyone, right?"

He Wei's words can actually be regarded as a reminder to Mu Bin.

He Wei saw that Li Zhang had fallen, and wanted to make Mu Bin feel trustworthy by saying some "handled" words, which was also a means of surrendering to Cheng.

After all, he He Wei was the gun next to Li Zhang's side before, pointing where to fight, and now that Li Zhang has fallen, he is looking for a way out in the future.

Mu Bin said coldly: "Before the person left, he learned to dismantle the stage?" Know what your kid is thinking. Yang Gonggong's side, I will protect you, you have worked very hard in the past two years, but you and I are not Cai Guogong's descendants after all, in the future, we must not only have a good relationship with Yang Gonggong, but also take the road of Cai Guogong's side. ”

He Wei said: "It's okay for Gonggong Yang to say here, as for Cai Guogong's side, ......"

"I'll help you too." Mu Bin said, "But it also depends on luck, if the governor is also transferred, then you can only fight alone." ”

"I understand, the Jinyi Guards are very supportive of you, no one dares to say a bad word about you, don't worry, adults, the little ones will also find someone to praise your goodness, and they will definitely not block you."

……

……

Port.

The sixth day of the Lunar New Year.

Xie Qian had been working in full swing for three days, and the stacked accounts in front of him were like a hill, making him have two big heads.

"Master Xie? Sun Yan is here, I have something to tell you. The assistant scribe who was out on business came over with a smile.

"Humph!" Xie Qian snorted lightly.

He looked down on Sun Shangqi very much.

Even if it was Zhang Zhoulai, he wouldn't give a good face, and Sun Shangqi didn't plan to treat the other party as a human being.

But Sun Shangqi just came in straight in, and he didn't need to have any etiquette exchanges with him, so he went straight to the point: "Xie Ge Lao, you are a former Ge Lao, here, you are really the same as the people here, the accounts you handed in before have many ominous places in the records, and even the details of the expenses are not recorded in detail. Now that they've been sent back, you'll need to revise them again. ”

"What did you say?" Xie Qian didn't want to deal with Sun Shangqi, but the other party obviously came to find fault.

Sun Shangqi will not easily trouble him, in his opinion, Sun Shangqi represents Zhang Zhou, and it is Zhang Zhou who wants to find him trouble.

As soon as Sun Shangqi stretched out his hand, the entourage behind him handed him an account book, and then he put it back on Xie Qian's desk: "This account, after the preliminary review, it was found that there were many loopholes, and the problems have been circled, you have read it yourself in detail." You can sort it out separately. ”

"Impossible." Xie Qian said, "The old man still has this confidence, you are blaming the old man, you didn't use your symbol, you think that you used the Ming square and square words, so you let the old man modify it separately, right?" The old man has recorded the accounts for so many years, and all he has handled are the big accounts of the imperial court, and there will be absolutely no deviations, even if he is the head of the household, he can't find fault. ”

Sun Shangqi said: "Everyone knows your ability, but now it's not you who has a problem." When it comes to clarifying accounts and other things, there will be someone to do it for you, what you have to do is to sort it out, and what you have sorted out is indeed wrong or missing, please remember that this account is not something you write down and forget it, there will be a preliminary audit and a follow-up audit when you go back, and even hand it over to Cai Guogong and His Majesty, and the court will also pass the purpose......"

Xie Qian was furious.

Of course, he felt that he was being targeted.

"This account is done by Xie Ge Lao himself, if you don't understand something, someone will come to explain it to you when you come back, but Cai Guogong also has a clear eye, if you are not suitable for this errand, there will be an errand for you to do." Sun Shangqi said.

Xie Qian said: "What is his ability, he will come to the old man." ”

Sun Shangqi explained: "That's not what it means, it's just that you are serious and responsible, and now it's time to find problems and correct them." If it happens again, it can only be demerit according to the rules...... If there is someone who audits you, or someone who is afraid of you, this matter will be taken over by Jinyiwei. ”

Xie Qian's reputation is too great.

The person who audited the accounts found a problem, and he didn't dare to say it directly, if it weren't for Sun Shangqi sending the accounts back today and pointing out the problem, ordinary people would never dare to say it in person.

They are all face-saving people.

"A bunch of mediocre people......" Xie Qian scolded.

Sun Shangqi didn't hear it, and turned away.

……

……

When Sun Shangqi left, the scribe on the side hurriedly reminded: "Master Xie, don't say that in front of outsiders, don't make trouble for yourself...... And there are really capable people here. Let's just say that our account has to go through several layers above, and each layer is a powerful person, that ability...... It's really not like an ordinary tent. ”

Xie Qian frowned and said, "You also believe in this kind of untargeted thing?" ”

The scribe said, "Why don't you ...... Do you take a closer look? According to the adult, there are many ominous places here, and it may be that you don't know what to record, but there should be nothing wrong with it. The villain will list the detailed content for you again, and you can sort it out according to it. ”

"Hmm." Xie Qian was patient.

He is now not for himself, but for his eldest son Xie Zheng, as well as Xie Zheng's family.

Because he knew that Xie Zheng was also sent here, but his second son Xie Pi did not come, for Xie Pi's career...... Sometimes he also needs to endure it, after all, Xie Pi is about to take the exam.

When he opened the accounts he had sorted out, he just looked at them briefly, saw the red circles everywhere, and asked him to ...... Ashamed.

It's really not that it's "not endless" as Sun Shangqi said, but there are many records that are wrong.

Even he felt ashamed.

If he hadn't seen that the font on it was indeed his own, and it hadn't been deleted, he really suspected that someone had dug a hole for him...... Some of them even have impressions, but he didn't think they were wrong when he recorded them, but after a few days of "exercise", even he was easy to find out about these initial mistakes.

"I still found out from the mistakes pointed out by others, and how did the person who reviewed my accounts find them in such a thick book? It hasn't been long since it was sent? ”

Xie Qian himself also felt that this incident made his old face unbearable.

I look at the red circle, and others mark him with a red circle, so can the workload be the same?

"That ......," Xie Qian had to be cheeky and go to the scribe.

"Master Xie, is there something wrong with you?" The scribe was very polite.

Xie Qian said: "The old man wants to ask, who audits the accounts above?" Is it Zhang Bingkuan himself? ”

Zhang Bingkuan...... Hey, isn't this Cai Guogong's name? You can't just mention it. The scribe hurriedly said, "How could Cai Guogong personally go out for such a trivial matter?" It is said that there is a special courtyard in this city, and a lot of talents have been accumulated, and the accounts are sent there every time, from all walks of life...... There are too many places in the city where silver is needed, and the output and consumption are not old or young. It's a place where there are many capable people, and the little ones still want to mix for a few years, and they can also mix in there, and I heard that there are a lot of money given every month. ”

"Who are they?"

Xie Qian frowned.

He felt that this group of people was working for the tiger, and there were capable people who actually did things for Zhang Zhou? Don't you know how to serve the court? Just to make money?

"It's not something that villains can know." The scribe sighed, "But the younger one has heard that there are not only men but also women in it." And the status of women in it is not low, some of the stewards are directly women, they are neither officials, nor ordinary businessmen, but ...... It's not good to say, but there are also rumors that it is Cai Guogong's outer house...... Don't spread this word casually. ”

Xie Qian's brows tightened this time.

He didn't understand what Zhang Zhou was doing.

The scribe reminded: "Master Xie, the accounts sent back here, but there is only this opportunity to revise them, if they are not corrected well, they will be directly demerited, according to the rules, if there are three times of the same mistake, then they will be dismissed...... But you have official qualities, and the small ones don't, and the small ones don't know if you're like ours. But also be careful. ”

Xie Qian said: "There will be no more mistakes. The old man was just ...... Just be careful! You make a detailed list again, and the old man faces ...... Re-add and change it. ”

"Yes, yes."

The scribe politely sorted it out again.

Xie Qian also put away his previous contempt, and didn't even return to the place where he lived that day, so he stayed up all night sorting out the accounts in the office.

It wasn't until the second half of the night that I finished sorting it out and checked it a few times, and after I felt that it was very detailed, I immediately asked someone to send it for auditing.

And he himself rested as if he had no worries. (End of chapter)
