Chapter 65: Obedience

Yuwenrong heard Pei Min's embarrassment of himself so "righteous and awe-inspiring", and he wanted to die, and he couldn't help but say: "Pei Xiang, as the minister of a country, is the respect of the king of the county, the instrument of the country, and the sect of the world, the leader of the Shilin, and he should have the amount of support in his belly." Pei Xiang likes and dislikes for himself, saying this kind of thing, making it difficult, is he not afraid of making the world laugh? ”

"Don't be afraid!" Pei Min said seriously: "Only you and I here, and no third party knows, who will believe you if you say it?" ”

In ancient times, there was no high-tech such as a voice recorder, and Pei Min was fearless.

In the absence of real evidence, Yu Wenrong wants to "slander" Pei Min, who is Wenzong and is called loyalty, filial piety, moderation, righteousness, wisdom, benevolence, and courage for the descendants of the Confucian family, which is completely unrealistic.

Yu Wenrong was alert, and he also figured this out, completely dumbfounded, and only felt that the future was bleak.

Pei Min continued: "Otherwise, let's give it a try, you say I'm making things difficult for you." I say you are arrogant and unruly. Who do people believe in the world? It's really not good, I'll let you say it first, and I'll take advantage of you here. ”

Yu Wenrong was stupid, dumbfounded, and couldn't say a word.

"Okay, let's gossip here!" Pei Min waved his hand, unwilling to say more, and said: "As the head of the household department, you are responsible for the land, the people, the government of the money valley, and the difference in tribute, and I will give you two days to count the economic situation of the peasant households, handicraftsmen and low-level people in the middle and lower states of the country. If the result is not satisfactory to me, I don't need to say anything more about your fate. For your sake, don't let me catch the handle, give me this chance to cure you. ”

He kindly reminded, waved his hand again, and said, "Go, go, don't hinder me from reading!" ”

He drove Yu Wenrong like a fly.

Yu Wenrong was aggrieved in his heart, but he couldn't help but say: "My subordinates retire!" ”

Looking at the sound of Yuwenrong leaving, Pei Min smiled lightly and said in his heart: "Xiao Sample, I can't control you?" ”

Households.

As the organ in charge of household registration and finance, the household department is second only to the ministry of officials among the six ministries.

To be able to enter the household department, it is impossible without a certain background and opportunity.

Zhou Yingzi and Wang Kezhi are the best examples of background and opportunity.

Zhou Yingzi's grandfather was Zhou Yunyuan, who was the son of Zhou Ji after the attack on Zhou Biao, Marquis of Pengling. Zhou Yunyuan was a Zhongjin Shi in the year of the weak crown, and during the Wu Zetian period, he was the prime minister, and he almost died in order to protect Li Longji's father Li Dan. His descendants have a constant fortune all the way.

And Wang Kezhi has no identity and no background, and was originally a small official in Chang'an.

In the past, the issue of peasant exile was one of the major social issues of the imperial court. The vast number of peasants were forced to flee from their places of origin by heavy servitude, and some became homeless people, while others became tenants of landlords, which greatly reduced the number of household registrations throughout the country and seriously affected the financial and tax revenues of the Tang court.

Yu Wenrong was in danger to save his life, appointed as the tax envoy for renting and mediocre land, and issued the "Edict of Persuading Agricultural Envoys".

Yu Wenrong inspected the fugitive household registration and the occupation of land outside the nationality, filled the household registration search, and appointed himself as a peasant envoy, leading more than 20 agricultural judges to go to various places, clearing out 800,000 customers and a large amount of land, almost perfectly solving this big problem.

Wang Kezhi is one of the twenty people, he has the best merits and has become Yu Wenrong's right-hand man.

Yu Wenrong also gained Li Longji's trust because of this matter, so he was promoted to the Imperial History Zhongcheng, and was promoted to the head of the household department shortly before.

Wang Kezhi also became a household servant because of Yu Wenrong's opportunity.

Zhou Yingzi and Wang Kezhi have been waiting for Yu Wenrong's return.

Wang Kezhi had a sad face.

Zhou Yingzi said: "Brother Wang, don't worry about it, I haven't been in front of Pei Xiang, but what kind of person is Pei Xiang?" How can you embarrass Shangshu because of this little thing? ”

Wang Kezhi shook his head and said: "You don't know, Shangshu is very disgusted with the military, and often puts forward various suggestions for the border marshal, and he is not a person at all with Pei Xiang." Originally, the two didn't have a relationship, but it didn't matter. Right now...... Pei Xiang suddenly became the boss, do you say embarrassing? I'm worried now that Pei Xiang doesn't like Shangshu and embarrass him, and Shangshu doesn't like Pei Xiang, who disobeys Yang and Yin and corrupts state affairs. ”

Zhou Yingzi said heavily: "Not really!" ”

Wang Kezhi was silent.

Yu Wenrong is kind to him, and he can't say bad things about him. But with his understanding of his boss, he knew that Yu Wenrong had extraordinary administrative talents, but he was a little unscrupulous. Just like when he overthrew Zhang Shuo in the past, he colluded with Wang Jie.

As the two spoke, Yuwen Rong walked into the household with a blushing face.

Zhou Yingzi and Wang Kezhi both saw that their boss was in an extremely bad mood, and they didn't touch one of his heads and didn't step forward.

On the contrary, Yu Wenrong saw them and said loudly: "Gather all the officials of the household department and let them put down the things they are doing." ”

There are Shangshu and Shilang in the household department, and there are four divisions of the household department, the degree branch, the gold department, and the warehouse department, and there are nearly 100 officials of all sizes, densely gathered in the hall.

"From now on, cancel some rest, eat and live in the household department, and within two days, I will sort out the economic tax copywriting of 190 upper states, 29 middle states, and 189 lower states in my Datang. If you can't complete the task, everyone here, including me, will have a year-end review. ”

As soon as Yu Wenrong said this, everyone in the hall was in an uproar.

In ancient times, there were no computers, and all the copywriting materials needed to be read and counted one by one. The Tang Dynasty is big, the territory is wide, and the people are numerous, this must be accounted for in a unified manner, how to calculate it?

If you can't figure it out, you have to give a demerit.

You must know whether these unfavored officials can be promoted, only by the beauty of their resumes.

This is a mistake for no reason, who accepted it?

"If you have time to complain, you might as well act immediately. This is a major event set by the political affairs hall, and it is also the first fire of Pei Xiang in office, who wants to start the fire? There was some resentment in Yu Wenrong's words.

Many of the officials stopped talking.

Pei Min's name is still very effective.

No one wants to be in the limelight, they come in a hurry, and they go in a hurry.

Yu Wenrong instructed: "You can also help sort it out, you can leave those rich states and counties and choose the lower middle." This time, we are not counting those who live in abundance, but the poor people. In particular, agriculture and industry and commerce are counted separately. Zhou Shilang calculates the farmers, but you calculate the labor, and the business is counted by me personally. ”

Zhou Yingzi and Wang Kezhi each received their orders.

The two went down together.

Zhou Yingzi said with a smile: "It is said that the squire is too worried, you see, how energetic is Shangshu?" It's all do-it-yourself, but it's not common. ”

Wang Kezhi was also surprised.

Although he didn't know why, he knew that there was only one possibility for the current situation.

Pei Min, who is worthy of his name, accepted his boss obediently, and did not dare to use any crooked brains.
