Datang Nongwang

Chapter 777
He Moyou seemed very confident.

This kind of confidence comes from the last stubbornness in his heart.

perhaps.

It was precisely because the court had sent people to check the accounts every year that he had the confidence to believe that it was impossible for Li Chongyuan to find out that there was something wrong with his accounts in such a short period of time with such a small number of people.

That is true.

It is probably the same for anyone.

In the past eight years, no problems have been found in the annual audits. Could it be possible to find out the problems by changing the batch?

If a group of people were to come here, it would be really difficult to find out the problem.

But what method did Li Chongyuan use?
That was the most effective method of keeping accounts and checking accounts in the previous life.

All kinds of numbers are filled in the form, there are in and out, and the last thing left is the rest of the in and out.

One or two sets of data may not reveal anything.

However, eight years of data from one state was filled in, and none of the data on its entry and exit from the Taicang Bureau was left behind. As long as it has greedy means, it will definitely be able to find out the problem.

He Moyou has a problem.

This was Li Chongyuan's first reaction after hearing Xu Da's introduction yesterday.

If Li Chongyuan wasn't sure that there was something wrong with him, Li Chongyuan wouldn't have taught Wang Ting and the others how to keep accounts in the middle of the night last night.

They will not be taught how to use hard pens, nor will they be taught to use Arabic numerals.

He Moyou's irony, Li Chongyuan didn't care at all after hearing it, he approached He Moyou with the big paper full of He Mo didn't know what was written on it, and said: "I know you don't know the things on it, but I can tell you a few sets of data, after you listen, I am afraid that you should know what your fate is."

"Ha~cough~ha~, Li Chongyuan, you don't have to use such clumsy means if you want to deceive me. Some things like ghosts and symbols, you think you are a master of Taoism. Li Chongyuan, just wait, wait until you go to jail Let's go." He Moyou was still stubborn, his mouth was very hard.

What's more, when He Moyou saw the symbols drawn on the paper, he even threw out the slightest panic in his heart.

What was written on the big paper that Li Chongyuan was holding was something he had never seen, let alone heard of.

As he said, it's a ghost painting.

Before people who have never seen Arabic numerals, Arabic numerals are really like ghosts.

Ordinary Taoist priests always draw some spells from time to time, but no one can recognize them, and no one knows what the meanings drawn on the charms are.

This has become a ghost in other people's mouths.

Li Chongyuan didn't care that He Moyou's smile still coughed, and he read casually: "In the 16th year of Zhenguan, 77 pieces of cloth were imported from Fengzhou Cang of Shannan Road, 23 pieces of cloth were imported from Xingzhou, and 35 pieces of cloth were imported from Liangzhou and Shannan Road. 430 and five bolts of coarse cloth. In the 16th year of Zhenguan, the Taicang Department issued a total of 110 and nine bolts of coarse cloth from Shannan Road. In this case, the number of coarse cloth from Yushan South Road distributed by the Taicang Department was 310 and six bolts. However, after inspection The quantity and accounts of the coarse cloth imported by Shannan Road of Taicang Department are only five bolts left. Hehe, dare to ask, why did Shannan Road import 310 pieces of coarse cloth last year? The coarse cloth of Shannan Road is like this. There must be a lot less things."

"Impossible, absolutely impossible. I have been in command for eight years, and all the accounts are correct, but you only have a few people and only spent a whole morning. It is impossible to sort out the accounts of Shannan Road. Li Chongyuan, you just make up You are vicious enough to make me confess the crime of corruption and breaking the law. Let me tell you, Li Chongyuan, don’t try to use such means to deceive me or frame me. Don’t waste your time. Yes. As long as you can't find out the problem, I will definitely be in the court, and I will sue you for beating me up, and I will sue you for defaming my official name." He Moyou listened to the set of data read by Li Chongyuan, and said Did not find anything, still clamoring.

Also really.

There are ten ways in the Tang Dynasty, each way has dozens of prefectures, and there are so many things sent by each prefecture and way, how could he, He Moyou, remember so much.

And Li Chongyuan only reported Shannan Road's accounts for last year, so how could he, He Moyou, find the problem from it.

On the other hand, Li Chongyuan, seeing that He Moyou was still arrogant, sneered and continued to read: "In the tenth year of Zhenguan, Shannan Road imported 720 pieces of coarse cloth; in the 11th year of Zhenguan, 12 pieces; Years, 820 three horses, Zhenguan 13 years, 810 two horses, Zhenguan 14 years, 940 six horses, Zhenguan 15 years, 220 five horses, this year, 16 six horses. In the eighth year of Shannan Road, the total import of coarse cloth 430 four horses. Distributed in seven years, a total of 310 two horses. If calculated in this way, there should be 360 six horses. This year, the coarse cloth salaries of the Beijing officials have not been announced, so there should be 630 two horses left in the warehouse .These numbers, right?"

When Li Chongyuan told the entire Shannan Road, all the income in the past eight years like a few treasures, He Moyou was shocked.

Whether the set of accounts that Li Chongyuan read was wrong, he didn't know.

But he vaguely remembered that the amount of rough cloth brought in by Shannan Road was roughly the same.

But Li Chongyuan and the others only spent the whole morning on the entire Shannan Road. After he had really sorted out the accounts for the eight years since he was in charge of Taicang, He Moyou was not only shocked, but also panicked.

Shocked and flustered, He Moyou, with dilated pupils, looked at Li Chongyuan, really didn't know how to reply, and was still frightened.

Seeing that He Moyou didn't reply, Li Chongyuan smiled and said: "According to the investigation, there are currently 530 bolts of coarse cloth in Yushannan Road in the warehouse. According to the usual calculation, the distribution of coarse cloth for Beijing officials is 2000 If there are two horses, then there should be [-] two horses left in the warehouse. Then, where did the more than [-] coarse cloths that were discrepant in the accounts go? I wonder if you can give me an explanation? Could it be embezzled by the Holy One?"

Numbers can't fool people, and they can't make mistakes.

Whether Wang Ting and the others made a mistake in their calculations, or these people were greedy, in short, the data will not lie.

When Li Chongyuan's words fell to the ground, He Moyou was frightened, with a look of despair in his eyes.

Of course He Moyou knew where the coarse cloth was going.

He himself knows how much coarse cloth he has stolen from the Taicang Department.

But he really never thought that someone would be able to find out such a mess of accounts, and he could go down to every year, every category, and every kind of entry and exit.

He Moyou, who was already leaning against the wall, had despairing eyes, and really didn't know how to deal with himself.

In eight years, he has been greedy for two thousand pieces of coarse cloth.

Although the number is small and the age is long, it doesn't feel like a big greed.

but.

If the normal selling price of a piece of coarse cloth is between five and fifteen guan, it would be a big deal.

and.

This is just a piece of coarse cloth, not including silk, silk, hemp, grain, money, etc.

If you count these, it is a huge greed.

Li Chongyuan sneered and said nothing, and after a cold snort, he went directly to the office of the Taicang Office, "Wang Ting, make it clear and make no mistakes. These accounts and data papers must not be destroyed. Liu Xiang, if you find someone Those who destroy the account books, kill them! Zhuni, take my jade talisman and go to Marquis Wu to send some people to help."

Li Chongyuan began to speak.

"All the officials of the Taicang Department left to the sidelines. Those who entered the warehouse without an order will die! All the servants who can read and write come in and pay the bill." Li Chongyuan was still a little worried, and rushed the officials of the Taicang Department out.

After everyone heard Li Chongyuan's words, their hearts were moved, but they didn't dare to take any action.

A word of death, a word of kill, is enough to shock everyone.

Moreover.

Li Chongyuan brought dozens of people this time.

In addition to the personal guards, there are also some guards, all of whom are fierce and fierce, holding knives in their hands.

If they made a slight move, they might really die.

They died as soon as they died, but if they really affected their family members, the consequences would be disastrous.

All the officials left the Yamen and waited outside the court, each thinking and thinking.

They knew who was in the same boat as He Moyou.

Who gets more and who gets less, they are even more clear and blatant.

The servants, who could read and write, flipped through the account books in a panic, reading the data on the account books.

And just when the Taicang Office was tense, a guard rushed into the Yamen, "Xiao Langjun, Xu Shaoqing and several people came to see you."

"Who did Xu Da bring here?" Li Chongyuan was very curious when he heard that Xu Da brought several people to the Taicang Office.

After a while.

Xu Da took several people into the Taicang Office.

When Xu Da and the others saw a group of officials from the Taicang Department waiting outside the venue, and the Taicang Department official He Moyou was leaning against the wall with absent-minded eyes and dried blood on the corner of his mouth, they seemed to be thinking, " Li Siqing, this is?"

Li Chongyuan saw Xu Da bring several people in, and Li Chongyuan recognized one of them at a glance.

Housekeeper.

Seeing the housekeeper of Fangfu appear, Li Chongyuan confirmed his guess.

As for the other person, Li Chongyuan felt that he had seen him before, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him.

But from the official uniform on his body, it can be seen that he is just a small official of the ninth rank, and he doesn't take it seriously.

When the housekeeper of this house came, Li Chongyuan sneered even more.

"No big deal, just being bored and dealing with some mice. Xu Shaoqing, who are these two?" Li Chongyuan asked knowingly.

Xu Da seemed a little embarrassed and said: "This is Fang Ping, the steward of Duke Liang's mansion. He is Lin Zhengfeng, the supervisor of the Taicang Department."

After Li Chongyuan listened to Xu Da's introduction, his eyes immediately became displeased.

Lin Zhengfeng and Li Chongyuan recalled that they seemed to have seen it, so it turned out to be someone from the Taicang Department.

But Li Chongyuan couldn't figure out when this Lin Zhengfeng left the Taicang Office and ran to Fang's house to find a housekeeper.

It was obvious that Fang Xuanling sent a housekeeper over to suppress Li Chongyuan, or to warn him.

Seeing Xu Da was there, Li Chongyuan didn't reprimand Lin Zhengfeng, but asked unhappily: "Xu Shaoqing, the Taicang Office is the important place of our Sinon Temple. What does Xu Shaoqing mean by bringing an outsider here? Did you forget your identity, Xu Shaoqing? still is?"

"Li Siqing, I didn't want to come here, but I can't help myself." Xu Da was a little embarrassed. After cupping his hands, he took a step back, as if to show Li Chongyuan that he really couldn't help himself.

But at this time, Fang Ping, the housekeeper of the Fang family, said, "Li Siqing is so majestic. He just took office, and he beat the subordinates until he was unconscious. If Li Siqing did Prime Minister, I'm afraid there is no one in the court to rule."

"Where did the dog come from barking at the site of the Taicang Department, the most important place of Sinonong Temple. Now, I suspect that you have colluded with these corrupt people and resold the property of my Taicang Department. Come, take him down for me." .” Li Chongyuan didn’t follow Fang Xuanling’s tricks.

For a little butler who has no official status and no fame, but dares to bark in front of him, it is good that Li Chongyuan didn't hit someone directly.

Moreover, a little housekeeper dared to speak like this in front of Li Chongyuan, with warnings and some provocative words in his words, how could Li Chongyuan bear it.

In addition, the Li family had a grudge against this Fang family, and Li Chongyuan had a grudge against Fang Xuanling even more.

This is really pinching Li Chongyuan as a soft persimmon.

As soon as Li Chongyuan finished speaking, Tang Li strode up immediately, took down Fang Ping, the butler of the house, and threw it to the guards.

Xu Da was a little baffled by the sudden change, and Fang Ping didn't understand the situation, "Li Chongyuan, if you dare to touch me, my Fang family will never end with you."

"Hehe, you are the only one who can represent the Fang family? If you really could represent the Fang family, your master, Fang Xuanling, would probably have to resign from his old age and return home. A dog is worthy of barking at me? The guards obey orders like him Keep barking, slap your mouth until he stops barking." Li Chongyuan sneered endlessly.

There's nothing you can do with Fang Xuanling, so why not take you as a little butler?

If you fight, you will fight, and no one will sue.

The guard dragged Fang Ping to the side, and within a moment, there was the sound of slaps.

And this time.

Lin Zhengfeng, who also came back with Xu Da, was terrified at the moment.

He never thought that Li Chongyuan was so unruly, let alone the rules of the officialdom, not only arrested a prime minister's housekeeper, but also made the guards slap him.

Lin Zhengfeng was terrified, and he started to back away from the terrified heart.

Li Chongyuan looked at Lin Zhengfeng who was retreating, pointed at him and shouted angrily: "Eat the inside and outside, you think you go to Fang's house to rescue soldiers, you really think that you can save corrupt people like you. Hmph! I won't beat you today. , after everything is over, the minister of this temple will definitely let you go into exile in the Western Regions."

talking room.

Zhuni has already led a group of people from Marquis Wu.

With the arrival of these Marquis Wu, all the officials in the entire Taicang Administration were brought under control.

Xu Da is neither standing nor walking at the moment.

He could see that something happened to the Taicang Bureau, and it was a big deal.

Marquis Wu has been dispatched, and it's not a big deal, it's a big deal.

Li Chongyuan ignored him and went into the inner office, "Wang Ting, you can take care of the affairs here, and Xu Da outside, you can also take care of him, I want to go into the palace. After this matter is over, you must be the one in the office." Location."

Wang Ting nodded excitedly.
