The Red Chamber: The Rise of the Shuzi

Chapter 15 The iron ingot in Yu Heng's department got it (recommendation ticket for collection)
The sun was rising, but at this time, the Yu Heng Division of the Ministry of Industry was in full swing.

Boxes of account books were carried by the yamen servants and placed in the lobby of Yu Hengsi.

"Lord Fang, is it really okay for us to do this?" Qiao Weiming, who had changed his clothes, stood in front of a tall and thin official with a mustache, and his tone was not without worry.

Another official who was also wearing the chief official's robe was a little confused when he heard the words, "Yes, Mr. Fang, what should we do if the person in the hall makes trouble afterward?"

The official known as Mr. Fang, named Fang Xiaojin, is Yuanwailang of Yu Heng Division, the largest official of Yu Heng Division besides Jia Jing.

"Are there any loopholes in the account book?"

"How is that possible!" Qiao Weiming on the side immediately said, "Don't you understand our level? It's safe!"

"That's good." Hearing this, Fang Xiaojin said confidently, "Since there is no problem, then why not be afraid, we just handed over all the account books in the yamen for the past two years to Mr. Jia. This is also to help Mr. Jia get familiar with Isn't it Yu Heng's business?"

"Today is to let the new doctor know that Yu Hengsi still depends on us!" Fang Xiaojin became more and more confident.

"But I heard that Mr. Jia was a general of the frontier army. After serving in the army for more than three years, he beheaded nearly a thousand Tatars with his own hands..." The other chief beside him said weakly.

"..."

Thinking of the terrifying murderous aura on Jia Jing in the hall before, several people swallowed subconsciously.

For a while, the atmosphere was a little stagnant.

In the lobby, Jia Jing held the teacup in her hand, calmly looked at the box after box of ledgers in front of her, and slowly sipped her tea.

"Master Fang, could it be that these account books are Yu Hengsi's inventory books?"

He casually picked up a thick account book, which was the recent loss record of Yu Hengsi, and flipped through several books, which were all the recent loss records of various materials.

Jia Jing was really not used to the accounting method at this time, and Jia Jing felt dizzy when she read the accounts written vertically.

Closing her eyes and rubbing her temples, Jia Jing casually threw the account book into the box, and closed the opened top cover directly.

Before anyone knew it, six or seven account books had disappeared into the box.

And Fang Xiaojin's eyes lit up when he saw Jia Jing's performance just now. It seems that this new doctor is not very sensitive to the accounts. not just...

"Master Fang?"

Jia Jing's voice woke Fang Xiaojin out of his imagination, seeing Jia Jing's half-smile expression in front of him, Fang Xiaojin couldn't help feeling guilty.

"Well...Master Jia, these are the accounts of our Yu Heng Division for the past two years, so naturally you have to go through them yourself. And..."

Jia Jing interrupted Fang Xiaojin's words with a wave of her hand, with a serious expression, "I have already said it just now, and now I will tell you again!"

"First of all, the things that happened before I took office belong to the previous ones. I don't care and don't want to pursue them, so there is no need to move the previous things here to hinder my eyes. Do you understand?"

Fang Xiaojin nodded again and again, and then heard Jia Jing continue to say, "Furthermore, I have made it very clear before that I only want the Ministry of Industry to inspect and sign the printed inventory account book after the previous doctor Yu Hengsi was imprisoned. , nothing else! Master Fang, is there a problem?"

Being watched closely by Jia Jing, Fang Xiaojin just felt that the pressure was greater when he was chasing by two wild wolves by the side of the road when he was young and studying.

Cold sweat broke out on Fang Xiao's forehead, and he couldn't say the reason he had prepared.

Then, under Jia Jing's gaze, Fang Xiaojin hurried forward, found three thick account books from a box, and presented them to Jia Jing's desk.

Until now, Jia Jing looked away, and Fang Xiaojin breathed a sigh of relief, feeling alive again.

Jia Jing flipped through the account book in her hand, page by page, and remembered it very neatly, with the signature of the Ministry of Industry and the big red seal on it.

Putting away the account book in her hand with satisfaction, Jia Jing looked at the people in the hall, "Next, all adults, come with me! Let's go and check our inventory together!"

The thick, heavy and tightly locked doors were opened in front of Jia Jing, and various materials in the warehouse were piled up like a mountain.

Coal, aluminum ingots, tin ingots, iron ingots, copper ingots...

All kinds of materials are calculated based on the warehouse. The huge warehouse with a length of more than [-] meters and a width of nearly [-] meters, except for the most precious gold and silver, is only used when casting individual specific equipment, so only prepare a little bit.

There are two or three warehouses for the less precious copper, tin and steel ingots.

Individual materials that are not highly cherished are all in more than a dozen warehouses.There are also common items such as ordinary iron ore and coal, which are piled up into veritable hills.

It is worthy of being a national-level manufacturing unit, and the amount of materials stored is terrifying.

Walking in the dazzlingly numerous material warehouses, Jia Jing held the inventory list in his hand, checking and proofreading each item.

Behind them, Fang Xiaojin and Qiao Weiming's eyes flickered, they walked slower and slower, and gradually distanced themselves from Jia Jing.

"Lord Fang, since we followed the prince's order, our various losses have been a bit large. What if..."

"No chance!" Fang Xiaojin waved his hand, with a hint of disdain in his tone, "Don't scare yourself, look at his previous appearance, I guess he can't even read the account books, why worry about it!"

Fang Xiaojin's words reassured them a lot, but they were still speechless for a while, thinking about their own concerns.

As for Fang Xiaojin, Jia Jing, who couldn't understand the ledger, was holding a ledger of material loss in his hand at the moment, and was dumbfounded.

As a manufacturing department, when materials are turned into items, some loss is naturally normal, but the account books presented today show that the loss is ridiculously high.

For example, in the casting of copper coins, the fire consumption soared to as much as [-]%.It means that just by melting the copper ingots into copper juice and pouring them into copper coins, [-]% of them will be lost directly.

Jia Jing still remembers that when he was on the earth, he checked the loss of the ancient country's coinage out of curiosity, but it was only more than [-]% more.

I'm afraid this account book is not made to deceive fools, is it?

Well, it seems that Jia Jing is the idiot they want to deceive...

But not long after the former Yu Hengsi doctor was imprisoned, they dared to do this behind the scenes. Could it be that this was the idea of ​​the people behind them?

Think about it carefully, this is very possible.

Otherwise, Prince Zhongshun, an idle prince, where did he get so much money to maintain his luxurious life that swept the entire Shenjing?Where did so much money come from to support those numerous private soldiers?
With his prince's salary and the income of several shops under his name, Zhuangzi?Do not make jokes!
Thinking of this, Jia Jing had some calculations in her heart.

The ledger that recorded the loss was also put into the storage space by Jia Jing again.

Well, the inventory continues...

Looking at the few people who were quite far behind, Jia Jing smiled lightly, since you took the initiative to run so far, don't blame yourself for being rude!
In the iron ingot warehouse, iron ingots that are one and a half feet long and half a foot wide are neatly stacked into square stacks.

Looking for a remote corner at random, Jia Jing rushed into the deep aisle while the few people behind were not paying attention, and between waving his hands one after another, dozens of piles of iron ingots disappeared in an undetectable place.

After Jia Jing finished all this and returned to the line of sight of the few people behind, it would only take one or two breaths.

The few people who were immersed in their own thoughts did not notice Jia Jing's disappearance at all, they just took a look after a while to make sure that Jia Jing was still in their sight.

After doing this three or four times, Jia Jing's storage space was almost full, and then he stopped what could be called an aboveboard act of plucking wool.

"Ahem, everyone, please come here," Jia Jing beckoned, "Why is there something wrong with the number of iron ingot warehouses?!"

Hearing this, the hearts of the people in the back suddenly "thumped", and they looked at each other for a few times, and a thought flashed in their hearts, "It's broken!"
