Zhang Daoliang naturally said yes, and then continued to listen.

"The rest is the post house and schools in various places, can these use 500,000 taels? The personnel of the post house are all in service, and they don't need to pay for the court, and the others are the money and silver for entertainment, and a government can use a hundred taels of silver. "Sergeant Zuofu has drunk a little too much, and as soon as the box is opened, he can no longer close it.

Zhang Daoliang thought in his heart, even if the Right Mansion doesn't spend much money, but it's not the Zuofu sergeant, you should be greedy for ink.

Sergeant Zuofu said as he spoke, and finally said to Zhang Daoliang: "Actually, Emperor Wen also knows about this matter, but Emperor Wen did not pursue it, he knows that if he wants the horse to run, he always wants the horse to be full." For these two pieces of silver, as long as twelve coins enter the treasury, then even if the remaining four coins are taken by the hundred officials, he will turn a blind eye. It's really difficult to want to be in the Ying Dynasty, Lord Zhang, don't you love money? ”

"This, the official only knows, a gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way."

"You're hard-mouthed, or you don't really know what an official is. I don't need to say much about this matter. Hey, the ...... of the Chuixian period" The sergeant of Zuofu was about to sigh at the goodness of Emperor Wen, but the sergeant who was accompanying him hurriedly stopped him and said to him: "Old man, you are drunk." Drunk. ”

Sergeant Zuofu, with their support, got into the carriage. When he arrived in the carriage, Sergeant Zuofu's eyes instantly cleared.

The sergeant who accompanied him said, "Old man, aren't you drunk?" ”

"Confused, I've been in officialdom for so many years, when should I get drunk and when shouldn't I get drunk, do I have no bottom in my heart? When I say this to him, I want him to tell the sage, there is a problem with our left house, is it possible that the outer house, the right house and the inner house are all clean? If you are unlucky, everyone will be unlucky. ”

"Then old man, what are you doing with Emperor Tiwen?"

"Although I am old, I don't want to just give up, since the saint did not cure my sins, then there is still a chance to let the saint know about our difficulties. At that time, even if you can't be reinstated, you can mix up a position and find a way to make a profit. ”

When Sergeant Zuofu said this, he said to the sergeant: "You two, help this Lord Zhang, he is a saint's person, and he is a saint behind him, don't think about fighting him, there are saints in it, how can you fight to win them." ”

"But the old man, he seems to be a clean official."

"From the founding of the country to the present, there has not been a Qing official in my Dayu Dynasty!" Sergeant Zuofu said categorically, and said to the sergeant: "Qingguan, when his family can't support him, what will he take?" Take your life? Since ancient times, I have liked two things, one is the official seal, and the other is the money bag. If you have a money bag, you want to change an official seal, and if you have an official seal, you want to fill the money bag. The pilgrimage does not need to be clean, it only needs people who do things. ”

"However, he is new to the city, and it is not good to do this for the sake of face, so don't be busy showing your loyalty, and when he needs you, you will hand us the way. When the time comes, you will have the soup, and don't forget me, a bad old man. ”

"Old man, you're joking, if it weren't for you, how would we mix. Many adults believe in you, not us. The sergeant said flatteringly, and the sergeant of Zuofu smiled and shook his head proudly.

He has dealt with some people for so many years, and those people will only deceive themselves through themselves, and these two sergeants, who don't even know what these people's surnames are, naturally can't leave themselves to find the gold owner.

Zhang Daoliang didn't know what Sergeant Zuofu was talking about in the car, and he was now flipping through the ledger.

This ledger is simple, nothing more than the annual budget and expenditure of each locality. Zhang Daoliang saw the dawn and finished reading these account books.

The Yu Dynasty army seems to be a lot, but it is very few scattered, these 4,000 counties, and only 2 million Xiang army, this county town, only more than 500 people.

Of course, this is on average, some prefectures and counties are relatively few, and there are many Xiang troops, and like Dafu, it is basically the main county town that has the Xiang army stationed, and other counties rely on catching fast. Or between several counties, the Xiang army was stationed back and forth.

Two million troops, one million forbidden troops, three million troops. The Xiang army is basically self-sufficient, and the only thing to be allocated is the money spent on weapons.

And the forbidden army is fully supported by the imperial court, and both armor and food are supplied by the imperial court, which is the big head.

Zhang Daoliang looked at it, and the biggest sum was the annual grain. This million forbidden army consumes more than 100,000 stone of grain in a month, and it is 1.5 million stone of grain in a year.

These numbers look big on his head, not to mention the annual salary.

He felt that the six million taels drawn every year was really not enough, so he spent a day writing an excerpt and handing it to the saint.

He suggested a few points, the first is that the forbidden army directly eats the provinces where they are stationed, and as for the consumption, it will be counted by Taifu or Yufu, and then deducted from Zuofu. He had already heard that the Jade Mansion was pressing a lot of grain, and it still needed grain merchants to sell. The silver sold by this grain merchant has to be allocated to Zuofu to buy grain, which is too cumbersome, so it is better to settle the bill directly in one step.

The second is that the imperial court has been exempted from taxes for too long, and he thinks that it should be enough to exempt him from taxation for twenty years, of course, in order to make the soldiers effectively die, the imperial court can make up one or two pieces of silver every year to make his heirs an adult.

The third is the problem of Yulu, he hopes that the imperial court can take into account the livelihood of hundreds of officials, and it is good to restore the ancient system, but the times have changed, and in the past, a hundred stones were naturally enough, but now, it is really not enough.

Zhang Daoliang's recital, the sage looked at it, and only agreed to the first article, and the second and third articles were all reconsidered.

At this time, it was soon time for the autumn festival, and Liu Xin, who was in the country of Zijian, also went to participate in the autumn festival in Gyeonggi Province.

On the night of the end of the autumn season, Ge Jing took Liu Xin to the restaurant to drink and celebrate.

"Tianfeng, this time, you must be in high school."

"Brother Ji Gong, thank you for your auspicious words."

Ge Jing did not participate in this autumn festival, he was originally a national eunuch who entered the country as a person, and he was ready to go directly to the road of eunuch tribute and become a tribute student.

While they were chatting, a familiar person came over and said to Liu Xin: "Sure enough, they are two ministers." ”

Ge Jing looked at it and found that he couldn't recognize the beautiful woman in front of him.

Liu Xin looked at the woman's bright eyes and said to the woman, "Presumably the girl was in Yujin's room that day......"

The woman nodded and said to them, "The slave's surname is Jiang, this time I thank you for your help that day." ”

"Miss Jiang is polite, it was such a woman who saved you that day." Liu Xin didn't dare to ask for credit, the two of them were bystanders that day, and they didn't make a contribution.

Jiang Xingchu said to them: "If it weren't for that day, Sister Yin wouldn't have been able to see Yujin, this is still thanks to you, I am fortunate to see it today, this meal will be regarded as the slave family's invitation." ”

Jiang Xingchu said, sat down, and chatted with Liu Xin and them about today's autumn exam questions.

Liu Xin also talked to Jiang Xingchu, Jiang Xingchu said that it was like looking at the articles made by Liu Xin, and Liu Xin even said that he couldn't write well. Jiang Xingchu said that he didn't believe it, Liu Xin was a prisoner, and his knowledge must be good.

Liu Xin had no choice but to borrow paper and start writing.

Jiang Xingchu waited for him to write, borrowed it, looked at one of them, and couldn't help but read in a low voice: "When the year of creation, the will of heaven is vast, it is said that the emperor has his own truth, and the heroes are not satisfied, but the one who is deceived for several years is defeated, and the one who violates the people's feelings in the crash is also defeated for several years. The husband is not a man, and the murder is not a soldier's punishment, so how can he spend the heroes? and the father and the elder with a staff to talk about Wang Feng, the historian with the help of the pen for the record, had to push the open-minded for the heart, put the heart in the heart, make a decision at the opportunity, integrity and selflessness, thinking that there are such a number of great virtues, and that year was enough for the king. ”

After Jiang Xingchu finished reading it, he read it again and said to Liu Xin: "This article, strong and healthy, I didn't expect that you, a scholar, looked a little cowardly, and could write such an article, I really admire and admire." ”

Liu Xin said that he didn't dare, and said to Jiang Xingchu: "Girl, since you say so, it seems that you are proficient in this language." ”

"I don't dare to compare with your talent, but when I was at home in the past, I watched a lot of episodes. It's just that I've never seen a man like you. The texts of the Wei Dynasty are mostly soft, and they basically say some nonsense, which is as lofty as you, but there are very few. ”

Liu Xin said that it was because Shiwen matured after the Wei Dynasty, and by the time of Wei Yingzong, Shiwen had a fixed formula. Later, after it became a stereotype, the scholars were not adaptable, and these eight strands could only be written into car words in the end.

Liu Xin and Jiang Xingchu began to talk about the Wei Dynasty's Shiwen, Liu Xin couldn't help but admire, many Shiwen masters themselves didn't know before, and they still listened to Jiang Xingchu.

This was talked about until the tavern closed and separated, Jiang Xingchu asked Liu Xin if he lived in Guozijian, Liu Xin nodded, he had no extra entanglement, he could only live in Guozijian.

Jiang Xingchu sighed, and said to Liu Xin that there would be a period in the future, and they separated.

Walking on the road, Ge Jing looked at Liu Xin with a smile and said to Liu Xin: "Tianfeng, I didn't expect that this autumn has just passed, and spring is coming here on your side." ”

"Brother Ji Gong, what are you talking about, the little brother doesn't understand."

"You're really a little stunned, this Jiang girl is a goddess intentionally, I don't know if you, the king of Xiang, have a dream."

Liu Xin stood there in surprise and said to Ge Jing: "This, this is not true, that girl and I are only one side." ”

"This is fate, you have to believe me, I can see that she admires you. This talented and beautiful woman is really eternal. ”

"Big brother, don't make fun of it, I can't hide it, I originally had a fiancée."

"Really? Why haven't I heard you say that? ”

"It's not a big deal, but if that's the case, it's a problem." Liu Xin clapped his hands helplessly. l0ns3v3
