"How many items are there in our customs temple account now?" Cui Pokaiyan asked.

"If you want to talk about the revenue from customs temples, it is mainly ocean trade. They have a lot of goods in and out, and the prices are high, so there are naturally more sea taxes. In the two months of this trade wind season, only Guangzhou and Yangzhou, the tax amount has reached 3.8 million guan, and the customs departments in the other nine places may be 300,000 or 500,000. In total, the total income between this year is 9.14 million guan. In addition to the large expenses of building a ship site, plus the daily expenses of the yamen, subsidies for Guangzhou Prefecture, and this reward, etc.

After that, there are actually 5.93 million guan left on the books. Since last month, more ships for trade in offshore to Linyi, Zhenla, Silla, Fusang and other foreign countries have been docked, and this income has increased a lot recently. If there is no major change in the future, the regular monthly income of the customs temple can be nearly 2 million guan per month, and there is no problem in supporting the 4 million guan of the court. But how to give the Dharma this time needs to be carefully considered!" Li Boyuan's mind was very useful, and he was unhappy in every report.

"Well! I'll give it today so as not to miss the deadline. Yang Xiang's face is not good!" At this point, Cui Po pondered for a moment and continued: "As for the number, let's solve it according to 380. No matter how small it is, it is not enough to show the benefits of the customs, and I'm afraid of changes in the maritime policy of the court; but it's more than four million yuan. The Ministry of Revenue thinks that there is a lot of money to make, so I'll arrive immediately. Wouldn't we be trapped in a cocoon? Also, recently, the Customs Temple shipyard needs to be vigorously expanded and recruited personnel, which is bound to be another large expense. Mr. must support it with all his strength! Once this matter is finished, it's time to raise some capital for the formation of a navy. Alas! I, a small governor of Guangzhou, have to worry about the Ministry of War, Shangshu Xue, which is called the thing I'm doing!" After saying this, Lord Jun couldn't help but complain.

"Pointing to the Ministry of War, this navy master didn't think so. He couldn't handle the recruitment of troops at this time, and could he still worry about the sea? If you want money, don't speak up as soon as possible, so as not to make things boring!" Li Boyuan ignored his complaints and poured a bucket of cold water on him.

"I also know, but this money-making note is still required, otherwise there might be something else to do later! Alas! Speaking of which, our customs temple is not small, and it is still a shortage of money!" Thinking of the expenses like a water-splashing in the formation of a navy, the governor Cui was overwhelmed again.

Seeing Cui Po’s situation, Li Boyuan smiled slightly and said, “The young master has to do more things, so he naturally spends more money! However, although the Customs Temple is poor now, the governor has made a big deal recently.”

"Oh! How can you explain this sir?" Cui Po asked in a daze when he heard this.

"Young Master, can you tell me what goods do the Hikes in Fusang want most when they have been in Silla recently?" Li Boyuan asked with a faint smile.

"What?"

"Xi's ink, Zhuge's pen! It's a pity that these two things are too few, otherwise, the young master will become a huge wealth within ten months."

"This matter should not be made public, nor should the customs temple give special care, nor should it be given any loss of people's words, especially my uncle cannot know, otherwise..." At this point, Cui Po showed a helpless smile on his face.

While talking, the car had entered the city of Guangzhou. Unlike usual, in front of the pure and majestic government office, many people in the city gathered in a bustling manner. Among the crowd, some people shouted angrily: "Hey! This old man Luo is too unauthentic!"

Seeing this, the coachman Guo Ying was about to ride his horse towards the side door, but he heard Cui Bokai say in the car, "Don't avoid it, go to the main door!"

With the sound of hooves, the carriage had already arrived in front of the government office. The constable Liu Rui, who was responsible for maintaining order at the gate of the government, and suppressed everyone, saw that the governor came, quickly wiped his forehead and sweated, and quickly stepped forward to greet him.

"Why are there many people gathering in the government office?" At the beginning of getting off the car, Cui Poshan brushed the wrinkled corner of his shirt and asked lightly. Although he was young, he was an official for a long time and had once attacked the rebellion. Therefore, although he was just a gentle word, he also made Liu Rui feel furious.

"I replied to the envoy, because the Luo family in Nancheng sued his former neighbor Zhang Youqian for accusing him of his daughter from elopement, which attracted everyone's attention."

"If someone complains about the wrongdoing, he should be accepted by the court. Otherwise, where is the dignity of this yamen? Why don't you take the initiative?"

Hearing the words of the envoy, Liu Rui said more and more respectfully: "Don't let Lord Jialin go to the state military camp to supervise the recruitment of the army in the morning. Because the two adults were busy with official duties, they had no time to sit in the hall for trial. Therefore, the villain was urging the Luo family to come back tomorrow. If the lord waited for a while, the subordinates could immediately clear the onlookers!"

Since the imperial court condemned the old army and carried out the system of recruiting troops in March this spring, this matter has become the most important item for local officials' performance assessment due to the direct focus of the emperor, the quality of recruiting troops and the collection of two taxes. Especially the four roads in Jiangnan and Hedong, which were directly and strictly controlled by the court, and even cavalry were conquered four times for a time, all of which were to explore the effectiveness of recruiting troops in various places. The two orders of the Ministry of War were also the direct standards for assessment. Previously, Jiangnan East was

The governor of the Three Prefectures was negligent and was directly dismissed from office by Xue Shangshu, who was about to kill a chicken and scare the monkey. Therefore, in the past few months, four roads in Jiangnan have heard of recruiting soldiers, and they feel like they are in a panic. Lin Biejia is in charge of Guangzhou's government affairs and is willing to go to the top, so he is quite interested in recruiting soldiers. He is inevitably becoming more and more busy. He is so he is in the state military camp every day, so today's events happen.

"I am a parent of the people. I should make decisions on the difficulties and make adjustments to the lawsuit. Why do I need to wait for tomorrow? Come! Beat the drum and go to the hall!" After the words, Cui Po immediately went first and went to the yamen to change his clothes.

After the incense stick, Cui Poyu, who was wearing a scowl and official uniform, sat down, which naturally attracted the praise of the people watching outside the fence under the hall.

Three drums sounded "dongdongdongdongdong", and the first time that Guangzhou Governor Cui, who had been in charge of the case in his tenure as a result of his appointment in the past year began.

As soon as the public men on both sides finished their treacherous power, they saw an old man who was just over 50 years old and lie down and said, "The villain Luo Qingquan, whose ancestral home is Ruyang, Dujidao. In order to avoid war disaster, he followed his father to live in this prefecture. Today, he came to the yamen just to sue the unyielding prodigal Zhang Youqian to elope and escape. He was dissolute since childhood. He came to the villain's house to propose marriage last year. After being rejected, he was crazy. He cheated the little girl on a rainy night yesterday. However, God blessed him, and he never walked away and was recovered by the villain. Such an irritable and shameful person, please ask the adults to take charge of the national law and make the people's decision!" After saying this passage, Luo Qingquan immediately cried and bowed, and his appearance was a bit pitiful.

"Transfer to Zhang Youqian!", slapped the awesome wood in his hand, and Cui Po shouted coldly.

The man was brought with him by the public a young man in his seventeen or eighteen years old. Although he was tied up in a mess, his pretty face and the scent of bookish fragrance on his body were hard to hide.

"Zhang Youqian, Luo Qingquan tells you about accusing her daughter, what can you make of a defense?" Seeing his gentle appearance, Cui Po felt a little fond of his feelings first, so the question became a little more warm.

Hearing this, Zhang Youqian looked up at Zhengtang first, then turned his head and stared at Luo Qingquan for a moment, and then said in a deep voice: "This matter is true, I have nothing to say about it!"

He said this, and before Cui Po could react, the onlookers in the hall were already full of noise, and people kept shaking their heads and sighing: "This boy from the Zhang family is crazy to read books. He still protects the old man of Luo at this point. He is really a matchmaker and it is not a bad idea for him!"

Seeing this situation in the hall, Cui Boliu knew that there must be something hidden in it, so he shot the auspicious tree again, rectified the order, and asked someone to untie Zhang Youqian's restraint and said, "Zhang Youqian, do you know that this private abducting woman is a crime against me. According to the law, it should be matched for three thousand miles. If there is any grievance, you can tell it all, and I will make the decision for you."

"I still commit the law and order, and I wish to conquer the national law without any grievances!" After hearing this, Zhang Youqian's tired body couldn't help but shock, and then he said with a buzzing voice without raising his head.

As soon as the matter came to this point, the court immediately fell into a deadlock. Seeing that Zhang Youqian had just bowed his head and confessed his guilt, Cui Po felt that there must be a hidden secret in it, but he could not continue to ask the case. Just when he grabbed the gavel and wanted to postpone the case for another trial, he saw a loud and loud shouting from the hall. Then a woman rushed into the hall like a gust of wind and knelt down and said, "It is the little girl who runs out with Zhang Lang and does not have any abduct. I hope the master will understand and forgive him for not guilty."

"You are so shameless, you have lost all your face in the Luo family. Why don't you get back soon?" When he saw this woman coming, Luo Qingquan, who was kneeling beside him, immediately roared and said.

"Roaring the court, Luo Qingquan, you are so brave!" After a sudden shout stopped Luo Qingquan's roar, Cui Po said to the woman with a beautiful face but a determined look on her face: "Who is that? In the main hall of the government office, I will decide everything for you, and I will do everything I know."

After hearing this, the woman pushed her body a few points to the right. After getting closer to Zhang Youqian, she slowly started to speak: "Little woman Luo Xixi, Luo Qingquan is his father, Zhang Lang... When Zhang Youqian was young, he lived next to her little girl, and had a very good relationship. I was born on the same day. When I was young, I often played together. When the young woman was seven years old, she sent her to Zhang Youqian's house. Later, because someone said, "Those who are born on the same day should be husband and wife," he made a secret coupon and vowed to grow old together! As he grew older, he returned home to avoid suspicion.

At the age of fourteen, Uncle Zhang condemned people to come to ask for marriage, and his father immediately agreed to make a marriage contract. He had no choice but to make a marriage contract since the previous year Zhang Youqian's family fell and both of his parents died. His father also had the intention of remorse and asked for a marriage contract with his daughter. Last year, Zhang Youqian came to my house to ask for marriage, but his father refused. Later, he betrothed the daughter to Xin in this city. Seeing that the wedding date was approaching, the little girl had no choice but to secretly ask Zhang Lang to elope. Therefore, the little girl voluntarily, and Zhang Lang had no abduct. Please check it clearly and forgive him for not guilty!"

Luo Xixi was still extremely shy at first, but later he became louder and louder. Although his face was flushed, his firmness in his speech could be heard clearly even if the earthen dolls and clay people were able to hear it clearly.

"What are the evidences you have?" Cui Po followed and asked, ignoring the noise in the hall.

"These three crooked sentences are exchanges between me and Zhang Lang's love, and the ten pieces of money and lovesickness were the tokens of love given to Zhang Lang by the little woman." Fang Sheng and other things were taken out of her arms, and Luo Xixi wanted to submit them to the public for presentation.

When the audience heard the "Poem of Concentration", they all became interested in it. The frivolous young man shouted loudly: "Read it, read it!"

Cui Po, who had already understood the details, glanced at Luo Qingquan thoughtfully, and a smile came from the corner of his mouth and said, "Don't present it, just read it in class."

The command that Lord Jun was so reasonable caused cheers outside the hall to cheer. Instead, Luo Xixi, who was so fearless, suddenly lowered his head in shame and stuffed Fang Sheng in his hand to Zhang Youqian and said, "You wrote it, read it!"

Luo Xixi's sudden arrival and this change made Zhang Youqian stunned. At this time, he took Fang Sheng blankly, read the words from the heart, and looked at the cute person in front of him. He suddenly turned around, turned his hand to the Zhengtang disrespectfully, staring at the pair of bright eyes that covered the world, and said aloud:

I was classmates in the same year and the same month, but I was not like a phoenix, but who was like a phoenix? Things were in a hurry under the pomegranate tree. I was shocked to scatter the mandarin ducks and split them up.

I haven't had two years of study and I don't think about it, so why don't I think about it? I only burn incense every day and night, and I will divide it into two, and I hope I will become two soon.

"This lyrics should be done by Luo Xixi after returning home from Shutang for two years. It is still a rare lyrics. It is rare for Zhang Youqian to have such talent at a young age, but it is too early for him to be in love!" Cui Po, who was above the main hall, stopped the act of detective Liu Rui's desire to step forward, and thought in his heart.

"There is a god in heaven, and the earth has a god. The word "Sanshan League" is true, and now Mo Shangxin is now.

After one spring, another spring. I don’t understand how to forget people if money turns into silver.”

Listening to these countless poems that he pondered and chewed, Luo Xixi's blush gradually faded away, "This idiot, when he heard that I was engaged to the Xin family that day, he passed on this poem and said, "I don't understand that money turns into silver." Is it true that I, Xixi, is such a person? Since I have given you money and lovesickness, I have given you all my heart, how can I really change my mind?" As he thought about it in his heart, he had already followed the trend:

Fortunately, that person returns, how can he teach him? I miss you for twelve days in one day, and I really can't let go of love. It's a good marriage, but I'm afraid that the marriage will be fake. If I follow the other person, I will meet you in the underworld.

Although this word is extremely vulgar, it is better to have true feelings. Especially when a woman was recited by her own chant, it has a unique charm. As expected, after a little silence outside the hall, there was a burst of cheers coming from the sky, and there were even more shouts of "good marriage, good marriage".

He witnessed this "youth love drama" in front of him. Lord Cui Po, who used to sneer at such scenes, couldn't help but be moved slightly. After the noise in the hall gradually subsided, he smiled slightly and said to Luo Qingquan: "What else do you have to say? Do I need to pass on the insider of the day?" After saying that, he ignored his pale expression and continued: "Luo Qingquan lured the engagement and falsely accused others. Zhang Youqian, if you are willing to sue him, I will definitely make the decision for you."

"He is Xixi's father. If you don't tell him later, please ask the adults to remember his love for his daughter and forgive his sins." Zhang Youqian stared at the woman in front of him again and said, "While these words were filled with colorful sounds, it also made Luo Qingquan breathe a long sigh and fell to the ground.
