Xu Ping looked at the official document in his hand quietly. Yang Gao stood aside and kept shaking his head and said, "That supervisor Tong, the magistrate of the left-behind Sitong magistrate Sun Mian's family, was actually hanging a rope and was hanged so much! It wouldn't be a big deal if he died. The city of Xijing has been like a blowout in the past two days. The prefecture, county, and the left-behind Siyi yamen are blocked every day!"

Xu Ping didn't raise his head and said lightly: "Do you still have time to take care of those yamen? Our Transport Authority is also blocked!"

"We have few people here, and we are all Cao. If you go to Henan Prefecture and the Left-behind Office to see it, you will know how quiet we are here!"

Xu Ping put down the official documents in his hand and sighed: "Now the officials in Xijing City, who are currently resigning, have issued a letter to impeach Sun Mian, saying that he indulged his servants in fraud, causing local turmoil, which is extremely bad, and the court must punish him severely. Humph, he still has the courage to tell the letter to himself, saying that it is all done by the slaves and he does not know anything."

He took out the official seal and used the seal and wrote the seal. Xu Ping handed the official document to Yang Gao: "I have been very busy these days recently. You should pay more attention and be tired. It is enough to do something like Sun Mian. Never do anything else. Some time ago, I transported cotton to the city, but it was not easy to store. Now that cotton is on the market on a large scale, merchants from all over the world gather, the river channel leading Luo to Bian has opened the gates and water, and the water has begun to be opened, and the water has begun to be opened, and things are even more complicated."

Yang Gu received the official document and couldn't help asking: "What should I do about Sun Mian? Our Transport Department Supervisor Office can't ignore all the officials. Li Liushou is now like a god. Except for the five-day daily life, he will never see anyone again. The officials in Xijing are now looking at Ducao. You have to make an idea."

"What can I do?" Xu Ping stood up, "Slaves commit crimes, and those who are masters will be implicated, but they are just implicit. Can they force Sun Mian to pay back the money? According to Sun Mian's temperament, he will not pay it back anyway! Now he can only be demoted from Jingxi Road and find a remote prefecture army to deal with it. I submitted a memorial a few days ago and have already approved it. You can send someone to find Sun Mian."

"Du Cao is going to deal with Sun Mian? This guy has been tossing for so long, so you are very patient!"

"To be honest, I don't want to ask about his affairs. He makes trouble in my hands! But Li Liushou doesn't care about any government affairs now, so I can only come forward. Go, go, send someone to find him!"

Yang Qiaoying, took the official documents and left Xu Ping's chief official office and sent someone to recruit Sun Mian.

Xu Ping left the official hall, sat down on the stone bench under the big tree in the yard, and looked at the autumn scenery of the garden.

He really didn't want to care about Sun Mian's affairs. Originally, the left-behind department did not return to the transportation department, so why should he offend this thorn? But now it is the time for cotton cloth to go public on a large scale. The business and the private business related to cotton cloth are mixed, and Xu Ping has to worry too much. A group of officials who have been cheated of money make trouble every day, which has a bad impact on the economy. Li Ruogu has long left the matter, and Xu Ping has to come forward to put an end to this farce.

How much did Tong Dalang take away? No one knows, and even a rough figure cannot be estimated. The real big head is still a loan. The loan was burned by Tong Dalang. Not to mention that the borrower who borrowed money would not pay back the money, even if they were willing to repay it, the middle-hand man who collected the money would not hand over the money to Supervisor Tong, which would have become a bad debt. Because the loaner was burned, Tong Dalang also gained a good reputation among the people, which could be considered as robbing the rich and helping the poor.

The root of this chaos was that the group of people led by Superintendent Tong made fake accounts, one that was light and one that was dark, and finally it was difficult to make any changes. Originally, the formal loan of contract was to notarize at the bookstore recognized by the government, and of course it would be charged for fees. However, Tong Dalang and others were not doing serious business, and there was no such procedures. After the loan was burned, they could not find the bottom of the bookstore. In addition, the company's accounts were also separated from open and secret accounts, and the official account was found, which would not match the actual situation.

Once Sun Mian left, Superintendent Tong was a salted fish. He was blocked by people mainly from branch officials to ask for debts. In the end, he was so desperate that he put a rope on the beam and committed suicide. Anyone with discerning eyes knew that he was taking the blame for Sun Mian, and there must be a reason to do so, but there was no way. It was impossible to use this method to force Sun Mian.

When the matter reached this point, it had to end. After Xu Ping discussed with Wang Yaochen, he asked him to deposit the accounts of Tong Dalang and Supervisor Tong in the relevant company according to the government's accounts of Tong Dalang and Supervisor Tong, thoroughly check the assets, and distribute them to the person who was invested in proportion to the losses. Supervisor Tong's family wealth was all lost, and they were also compensated in proportion. The slave and the owner lived together and shared the money. In theory, Sun Mian had to bear joint and several liability, but was ignored intentionally or unintentionally. From the shop to the company, it was originally a transformation from the previous unlimited liability to limited liability, and there was no need to go back.

As for Sun Mian, he didn't want to take out the money, so he had to pay it with an official position. It was inevitable that he would be demoted to a certain level, but it just depends on how he demoted him.

The leaves have turned yellow and fall from the trees from time to time and fall to the ground. Although they are cleaned every day, the ground is still covered with fallen leaves, a layer of golden yellow, giving people a warm feeling.

It has been a year since I arrived at Jingxi Road. Now it is the most critical moment. Xu Ping does not want to be distracted by these miscellaneous things. He must drive Sun Mian away as soon as possible to calm the matter. If the trouble continues, it will affect the stability of Xijing City.

A public official came over to report that Sun Mian had arrived. Xu Ping came to his senses and asked him to take him directly to the yard.

After recent events, Sun Mian has long lost the style of Xu Ping when he first arrived at Jingxi Road, and has become thinner, but his eyes are still full of energy and his eyes are cold.

As the public officials entered the yard and saluted in front of Xu Ping, Sun Mian stood there and looked at Xu Ping coldly.

Xu Ping shook his head disdainfully and pointed to the stone bench opposite him: "Sit down, you have caused so many troubles and you always have to settle it. The Secretariat and the Censorate have official documents, and this errand fell on me."

Sun Mian hesitated for a while, but sat down on the stone bench and looked at Xu Ping, still looking rebellious.

"When you arrive at Jingxi Road, you will have all kinds of thoughts and do things in a regular manner, but you will finally get into a big disaster."

"What kind of disaster did I cause?" Sun Mian raised his head, "It's just that he is not strict in his subordinates and his servants are causing trouble!"

Xu Ping waved his hand: "Tell the truth, I don't have the heart to argue with you about these things. What do you think and think of things, I have no interest at all, and I don't want to know. Now it's because of the recent turmoil in Xijing City, which has started from your home and you can't explain it if you don't deal with it. Originally, according to the Censor's meaning, it was to demote you to Jinghu Road or Fujian Road, and find a small state army to supervise alcohol tax or salt tax. What does this mean by yourself. Zhongshu studied under your Jinshi and felt that it was too heavy to demote you, so he came to the book to ask me for my opinion. Now it's decided, I'll give you two ways to go."

"I was not wrong with this matter, but it was just that the family was not strict."

Xu Ping slapped the stone table: "What does it have to do with me if you are strict in managing your family?! Let's talk about the family matters by yourself when you go home and close the door! Now there are two roads, either you can go to Ezhou wine tax or Yongliang Road, you can choose it yourself!"

Being a supervisor is the heaviest punishment for officials from Jinshi. It can be said that they are demoted to the end, which is much lower than when they first passed the Jinshi. If they had no relatives and friends to help them deal with each other, they would be unlucky and would never be able to climb the capital official again in their lifetime. This is the opinion of Xu Ping and the Censorate. The Secretariat felt it was too heavy and hesitated.

Sun Mian looked at Xu Ping, and after a long time he lowered his head and asked softly: "What are you doing when you arrive at Yongliang Road?"

"It's still a magistrate. Someone in the court recognised you as a Jinshi, which is very difficult, and it will be difficult to stop your future. I also saw your actions this year, so I left you a glimmer of hope to serve in the frontier. I brought this matter to me. I said my heart, whether it's for your own good or based on my thoughts, I hope you will choose the second path."

After a while, Sun Mian said, "Why? I have no friendship with Ducao!"

Xu Ping smiled and said, "Even if you have friendship with me, I don't recognize you! If you treat your character and make friendship with me, I will throw that person away! Going to the frontier to serve and leave a glimmer of life for your career is for the sake of the country. Using talent does not require virtue. Your style is not suitable for being a close official, but the frontier has no virtue. Speaking of talent, you are still a little clever."

Sun Mian's face turned black and blue, stared at Xu Ping, and said in a deep voice: "Do you don't think Du Cao's words are too mean?"

"Mean? You give me a reason not to be mean! From when I arrived at Jingxi Road, I have been against me everywhere. It's nothing you can do with me. I'm not a narrow-minded person. But what have you done? You are greedy for money and lust, provoking officials to cause trouble, and you have not done anything serious! You do something that benefits the country and the people, let me see, and I won't have any opinions on you! Oh, for the sake of money, Xijing City is uneasy, and you still think I'm mean?"

Sun Mian never expected Xu Ping to speak so explicitly. He thought a lot on the way he came. He thought about what Xu Ping would say when they met, but he never expected Xu Ping to be so straightforward, without any politeness, and without going around in circles.

Seeing that Sun Mian didn't speak, Xu Ping said again: "You are a person who is guilty now. Don't argue whether you have any guilt or what kind of crimes it is. Everyone in the world thinks you are guilty, and I am not interested in clarifying your crimes. The only thing I tell you is to be demoted and what you want you to do. So, don't bother with the past, think carefully about how to do a new position in the future, and whether there is still a chance to make a comeback. Am I not clear about it?"

"Okay, where is the road to Yongliang?"

"Recently, Jiaozhi submitted a petition to ask for an intimidation, but the court was not able to agree at once, so it would not cause fear to other small countries. So several new states were temporarily set up, but Shenglong Prefecture was still the Jiaozhi royal city. There is a large port named Haimen Town in Jiaozhi, which was Wu'an Prefecture during the Tang Dynasty. If you don't want to go to Ezhou to monitor the alcohol tax, you will be the newly established Wu'an Prefecture Tongzhe."

After defeating Jiaozhi, Chameng developed without rivals. The situation in that area is very complicated now. Xu Ping, the man from Sun Mian, also saw it. Staying in the mainland is a disaster, or just kicking it to the frontier, and what ability can be done toward the barbarians. It is not a problem to be greedy for money and lust there. The gentleman with a gentleman can't help but be able to suppress it. Moreover, the sugar for sugar in the sugar industry for sugar in the sugar industry must be opened, and there is indeed oil and water there.
