Chapter 35 Louzhi County's Means
The Ming Dynasty had very strict supervision over banks and silver casting, and every ingot of silver was signed.

Once there is a problem, the money is short of catty or two, or it is mixed with other sundries, it will be traced according to the signature of the money, and all relevant people will sit together.

Therefore, local banks are also very cautious about casting silver.

Moreover, the bank only has the right to mint silver, not the right to print silver bills.

There is only one place qualified to print the banknotes of the Ming Dynasty, and that is the Ministry of Industry, and all banknotes in the country are issued by the Ministry of Industry.

The Ministry of Industry prints money, and the Ministry of Households manages money.

The Ministry of Accounts is equivalent to the Banking Regulatory Commission, which supervises all banks in the country.

Lu Xiucai also knew the seriousness of the matter, as long as the official bank was involved, it would be no small matter, he checked very carefully, almost every ingot of silver was checked by himself.

Sitting next to him, Zhou Xiancheng was not worried at all, and waited patiently. He even reminded the scholar to be more serious about the inspection. Once the delivery is made, the county government will not be responsible for any problems.

It took Xiucai an entire hour to check all the money.

After closing the box and re-attaching the seal, he said to Ji Chen, "No problem."

Zhou Xiancheng said: "Since there is no problem, then the tax money will be handed over to you."

He also took out the key to the warehouse and handed it to Xiucai.

Immediately after that is the handover of procedures and signature.

After finishing all this, Zhou Xiancheng clasped his fists at Ji Chen and said, "Since the tax and bank experience is over, I will take my leave first."

After finishing speaking, the county magistrate turned and left.

This place now belongs to Jin Yiwei, and no one is allowed to stay without Jin Yiwei's consent.

Looking at the back of the county magistrate leaving, Ji Chen was a little suspicious. Could it be that his suspicion was wrong?
Didn't they tamper with tax money?

Could it be that they want to rob tax money?

Ji Chen shook his head, denying this idea, he couldn't think of anyone who would have the guts to rob tax money.

Even in the 19 years since Ji Chen traveled here, he has never heard of any tax money being robbed there.

This is the same as robbing the car for the deposit in the previous life. Don't look at the few people who deposit the money, there are really few people who have the guts to rob it.

Especially since this is still a world of high martial arts, once it is found out, the mountains will be leveled for you.

"My lord, what should we do now?" Bai Zhantang asked.

"Stand still for now, and the scholar will go back and tell Xiao Guo to come over. Zhantang, you and Xiao Guo will stay here first and stay together."

"Jingcha is coming soon, I want to see what kind of tricks they want to play."

Ji Chen and Xiucai returned to Jinyiwei, and then transferred Guo Furong to the tax bank to guard the tax bank.

For the next two days, everything was safe and sound, and Ji Chen went to the tax bank every day to inspect it.

On the third day, after Ji Chen inspected Ku Yin, he returned home. When he was about to open the door, he suddenly found that the door was not right.

He puts a hair in the keyhole every time he goes out.

And now, the hair in the keyhole was gone.

That is to say, someone has entered the yard.

Ji Chen was on guard, unlocked the door, and walked in.

Everything in the yard, no one

Ji Chen let go of his perception and felt it carefully.

At this moment, his eyes and ears became clear, and the sounds of insects around him could be heard clearly.

There was no sound of breathing, that is to say, no one was hiding in the yard.

Ji Chen began to check the house.

When he opened the door of the main room, his eyes suddenly froze.

In the main room, there are more than a dozen boxes.

Ji Chen suddenly understood something, so he hurried forward, slashed the lock on the box with a knife, and opened the box.

The white silver shines in Ji Chen's eyes.

He picked up an ingot of silver and turned it over to see that the word "official silver" was engraved on the bottom, and the signature was Daming Bank No. 187.

He came over in an instant, and it turned out that Louzhi County was waiting for him here!

It's not evading tax money, nor is it robbing tax money, but blaming him for stealing tax money.

Ji Chen's eyes flashed with murderous intent!
Stealing tax money, punishing the nine clans, Qixia Town's Jinyiwei, including Tongfu Inn, and everyone involved in Xiang will all be implicated.

Daming is extremely strict with the tax bank, and anyone who touches it is a capital offense.Otherwise, there are so many corrupt officials in the whole Ming Dynasty, but none of them dare to touch the tax money, and even people in the Jianghu would not dare to touch the tax money.

Before he had time to think about it, Ji Chen put the horizontal knife back into the scabbard, picked up a box in one hand, went to the yard, and threw the box into the well.

He was very fast, and in just a few tens of breaths, he threw all the boxes into the well.

Just after finishing these, Ji Chen heard dense footsteps around the yard, approaching from far away.

Ji Chen hurried back to the house to pick up the dragon stick.

At this moment, the gate was knocked open, and dozens of menacing government servants with swords broke into the courtyard.

On the courtyard wall, there were also many government servants holding huge crossbows.

Each of them has a deep breath, and it looks like a martial artist who has entered the genre, at least they are all in the realm of 'first glimpse'.

Ji Chen raised his eyebrows, these yamen servants were all pretended by people in the world.

When he came to the courtyard, he saw Lou Zhixian in official robes walking out of the crowd with a cold expression on his face, and four government servants with deep breaths followed behind him.

One is holding iron claws, the other is carrying a single sword, and the other two are using swords.

Ji Chen's eyes froze, these four are masters,

None of the yamen servants in the courtyard are real yamen servants of the county government, all of them are pretended by people from the rivers and lakes.

"Ji Chen!"

Lou Zhixian stroked his beard and said in a deep voice, "I received a tip-off that you stole tax money and hid it in your home. Now I want to search your residence."

"Heh!" Ji Chen smiled coldly.

"Master Lou, you really think that Qixia Town is your world, and you can search for my Ji Chen's residence if you want!"

"Master Ji should know how to read!"

Lou Zhixian shook his hand, and a search warrant was unfolded.

"Search warrant, signed by the officer himself, how about it?"

After finishing speaking, Lou Zhixian threw the inspection order on the ground and waved his hand.

"Search for me, anyone who dares to stop him will be killed!"

The four yamen servants with deep breaths separated in a flash, entered the house and began to search.

Soon, the four of them searched all the houses, returned to the yard, and shook their heads at Lou Zhixian.

"no!"

Lou Zhixian's face darkened instantly.

"Ji Chen, where did you hide the tax money, tell me quickly."

A trace of sneer appeared on Ji Chen's face, "Master Lou, if you are a thief, you should catch the dirty, and you should catch the adulterers! You can't just talk nonsense with your two mouths!"

"Also, you brought someone into my residence without proof, we are not over yet!"

Lou Zhixian's face was as gloomy as water, and he said in a cold voice: "Ji Chen, I don't know how you hid the tax money in such a short period of time, but do you think you won? You are still young!"

"Do you want evidence?"

Lou Zhixian took a package from the yamen servant behind him and threw it into the yard.

"Snapped!"

The package was scattered, and more than a dozen ingots of tax silver were scattered.

"Jichen stole the tax money, and got the stolen goods. Let me take it. If you dare to resist, you will be killed."
