"January 700 citations, official, dare you believe it?"

Sun Qilang almost never stopped talking along the way, and this sentence was just tossing and turning. Xu Ping had just said a few words to him at the beginning, but Sun Qilang was not interested in what the matter looked like. He was just stimulated by this number.

After hurriedly guiding the renovation of the greenhouse at Wang Su's house, Sun Qilang was summoned to the palace and planned the fire road in the back garden. He ate the imperial meal every day, and the charming little palace maid looked at him. Sun Qilang was quite happy. But when the renovation was completed, the reward for Sun Qilang was a verbal praise from the emperor who came to the Xiaohuangmen to pass on the posts, and a escort from the third class.

Sun Qilang was very happy to have an official position and wear official uniforms. In the future, he went to Gao Daquan to meet his colleagues, which saved a lot of embarrassment. But when he asked clearly that the monthly salary of these three ranks was only 700 cents, and there was a discount. He didn't know how many copper coins were left after getting it, so Sun Qilang was stimulated.

After finishing his work at Wang Su's mansion, he also granted Xie Yi a total of fifty taels of silver. He was very fond of official silver. After he finished his work in the palace, he was even more and more tired. After he finished his work, he was given a small official of 700 cigarettes a month. Sun Qilang is now in Xuping Village, and he earns this amount every month.

Sun Qilang remembered that as soon as Xu Ping became an official, he received the monthly salary, but he and Gao Daquan spent money, but he still couldn't finish it. Xiuxiu saved it every month! When he arrived, he only had 700 ounces a month, and it was not enough to eat!

Xu Ping let Sun Qilang nag that this is the case with the small officials of this era. It is not a small number of 700 entries, and it is barely enough to eat and live alone in the capital. Besides, if you really get a job, you have more money and you can drink twice a month.

Sun Qilang shook his head and sighed, unable to help but ask Xu Ping: "Official, you said that you can really survive in the capital with just such a small salary? It is difficult for a person to eat enough. If you have any burden on your family, you will not have to drink the wind!"

"Why can't it? Shi Yannian first came to Beijing, and he was a employed member of the third class and served as a tuition for his elderly mother! He had enough to buy rice and cook rice every day, and there were still 180 cents left every month."

"If you don't believe it, don't they rent a house? One hundred cigarettes a month are not enough!"

Sun Qilang said, thinking that he was no wonder that he looked down on Shi Guanren and drank everywhere. He only cost 700 cents a month, so he couldn't afford it.

Xu Ping did not answer again, there were other tricks.

Shi Yannian was already famous for his poetry when he was young, and often attended banquets and other things, which saved a lot of money for meals. In addition, rich people were polite and elegant, so they would often invite him, which was not that hard.

As for living, it is easier to do. With Zhang Zhibai's care, you can rent an official house to live in. One official house is cheap, and the other can be dragged if you really have no money. If you delay it for a long time, you may be spared.

Rental houses are a large industry in Tokyo, and the largest tenant is the government. Not only are the three officials’ subordinates specialized in renting houses, but many yamen also have their own industries and collect rent every year. Especially on both sides of the Bian River, many hotels and cargo yards are rented official rooms. The rent of official rooms is relatively cheap, and officials are even cheaper, and they can also owe rent. Many low-level officials rely on official rooms to settle down in Tokyo.

This is how Shi Yannian came here first. Later, he married Wang Zhi's daughter as his wife and brought a dowry, so his life gradually improved a little.

Listening to Sun Qilang's chattering all the way, he finally arrived at the Sansi Yamen. Xu Ping dismounted and asked Sun Qilang to lead the horse back and go to the Yamen to see the matter himself.

Just a few days after the long holiday, the atmosphere in the yamen was still a little loose.

Xu Ping returned to his official hall, drank tea from miscellaneous officials, and slowly studied the case files accumulated by the three departments that had been sorted out over the past few days.

Shi Quanbin could no longer stay in the palace. Xu Ping had to go up the memorial for the preparation of the three departments regulations as soon as possible, so that Shi Quanbin could find a reason to escape from the palace to avoid being implicated by the storm that might come.

At this time, the news of the disagreement between the emperor and the empress had already reached the outside court, and some censors began to submit memorials, asking the emperor to remain restrained.

The matter is actually very obvious. Due to the depression of Empress Liu during his lifetime, Emperor Zhao Zhen was very dissatisfied with the current Empress Guo. Empress Guo was used to being flattered since childhood, and she was a little jealous and stubborn. The relationship between the two is now very tense.

If women are jealous in later generations, it is a taboo, and they are not very concerned about this era. Most of the memorials submitted by censors are required to restrain the emperor, stay away from women, and maintain the relationship between the harem and the queen.

But the problem is that the more this happens, the more rebellious the Emperor Zhao Zhen’s mentality is. It is obvious that he was slapped by the queen, but his ministers accused him of being wrong, which is unreasonable. In addition, Empress Guo was too domineering in the harem when Empress Liu was alive, and the new and old hatreds combined together, so he gradually became the idea of ​​changing the queen.

The Outer Court did not know about these things, and Shi Quanbin didn't dare to say anything. He just begged Xu Ping to find a way to give him a chance to come out of the Outer Court so that he could apply to go out so that he would not be implicated by the queen.

The three officials are too fond of it and just sorted out various documents and documents that have been accumulated. In just one or two years, Xu Ping is now a deputy envoy of salt and iron, but he can't even figure out the situation of our officials in the past few years. There is no way. The materials in previous years are filled with the entire room, and they just sit still and read them, and they don't know when they will be able to finish them.

If it weren't for being in it, Xu Ping would have no way to believe that Sansi was in charge of such complicated affairs.

Not to mention the common taxation, national treasury, and balance of income and expenditure, just specific industries under the name of the Sansi. In the capital, there are nearly 100 various treasuries, thousands of rented houses, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, food, clothing, housing and transportation, all kinds of transfers, and even loans and quotations, which involve almost all aspects of society.

The local three departments have participated more deeply. Take wine as an example. All restaurants with slightly better profits are official and registered with Sansi. Only small hotels with a income of dozens of cents a day are allowed to buy them. As for the advantageous industries in various places, whether they are minerals, salt and iron, or bamboo, wood, tea and horses growing on the ground, they are all set up specialty stores. There are thousands of places in the country that are not affiliated with local prefectures and counties, and are almost all-inclusive.

How can such a big monster who extends its tentacles across the country use this accounting method of every era to record everything, and the books sent to the Sansi every year are piled up like mountains. How can it be clearly understood?

What Xu Ping has to do is to sort out the bad debts clearly, then set up a new account format, and form specific regulations to make it clear to those who need to know the data.
