In the lobby of the General Manager's Mansion, Yang Ming met with this old man who was quite prestigious in Jiangling County.
In any case, Wen Yi was disabled due to fighting for the country. On the surface, Yang Ming would still respect him for this.
So he ordered the guards to carry Wen Yi into the lobby, and placed a high table in front of him with a glass of warm water on it.
Making tea takes a lot of effort, so most of the time I treat people with water.
"When I first came to Jiangling, I heard the name of Duke Wen. Do you have something to do when you come here today?" Yang Ming said with a faint smile.
Wen Yi took some time off and said with a smile: "I am disabled and have difficulty moving. When Your Highness came to Jiangling, I was unable to bring my broken body to express my congratulations. Now I feel that my health is still good. Although my descendants have stopped me, I still insist on coming.
I pay my respects to Your Highness, and it is truly a blessing to see His Highness Tianyan today."
He's quite good at speaking nice words. Yang Ming chuckled and said, "What is the position of Duke Wen?"
Wen Yi said: "I once served as the Chief Registrar of His Royal Highness the King of Han Dynasty."
Yang Ming came again: "What is your current position?"
Wen Yi: "There is no official position now."
Who taught him to do this at a young age?
The inner treasury of the General Manager's Mansion was already half full, so Yang Ming ordered Xu Jing to find some laborers to build a few more warehouses.
Wen Yi hesitated and said: "This. This, this, this."
No one has any advice or advice behind him? Impossible! I have never seen such a difficult little baby.
This is not good. I am only asking you for money, not your life.
Among them, I won’t talk about Dian Tiao. Dian Tiao is a personal eunuch sent by the emperor to the princes, princes and governors of the state. They are called Dian Ling scribes and are responsible for memorials and other matters. In fact, they are monitoring you.
I didn't expect that it would be revealed now. Is this young highness trying to punish me?
Wen Yi quickly explained:
"This field is a reward from His Highness the King of Han. No ordinary people dare to change it without permission."
Yang Ming directly refuted Chen Shuyi, don't care about these trivial things, you have a mission, you should care about what secrets Gao Yue hides.
This is not over yet, there is still mediocrity.
Wen Yi had these 20 yuan of land for seven years, so Wen Yi should pay 5,820 shi of corn back. The price of grain varies every year, and the average is 300 qian/stone. For the land rent, he needs to pay 170 shi.
One hundred and forty-six thousand yuan, which is one thousand seven hundred and forty guan.
As for whether the lack of personnel will affect official duties?
The answer is no, because most of the official affairs have already been handled by the local government. If those governors and governors did not even have the consciousness to share the worries of Yang Ming, they would not be suitable to be officials.
Jin Cao, in charge of currency, salt and iron matters.
The person who came here is not good. Wen Yi became nervous instantly, and his little heart was beating fast.
Yang Yinjiang, who was traveling far away for the first time, was no longer a homebody. She was like a wild horse running wild. She was away from the house all day, leaving early and coming back late. She was very punctual.
Labor service, labor service is ordinary people, the common people have to perform corvee service every year, corvee service, military service, labor service, military service, are all unpaid labor, and you need to prepare your own food.
"If you know your mistakes and you can correct them, there is no greater good, but I still have to correct you a little bit," Yang Ming said, waving his hand to the guard, who handed a scroll to Wen Yi.
In the early years of the founding of the Emperor, the world was divided into nine levels of prefectures, counties, and counties. The public land of each level was different. Jiangling County belonged to Shangxia County, and the public land should be two hundred. But in fact, the government should
It occupies about four to five hundred qing.
Not only did the trip go in vain today, but I also spent a lot of money on it.
As for those engaged in sacrificial wine, they were in charge of finance, households, soldiers, law, scholars and other meritorious services.
"Really?" Yang Ming nodded, and said to Duan Chou, who was recording the affairs of the General Manager's Mansion in the hall: "Immediately write a letter and send it to the Prince of Han Dynasty in Jinyang in my name to inquire about the authenticity of this matter."
There is no other place like this kind of treatment in Sui Dynasty.
Bingcao is in charge of military preparations, weapons, and defense matters.
The laborers will ask for some labor from the government and come over to work.
Duan Chou nodded and started writing.
The total rent and adjustment amount to 2,390 guan.
So he became mute.
Yang Ming said again: "The land you are entitled to is sixty acres. When will the difference be returned?"
Good guy. This guy is not simple. After a few simple words at the beginning, Wen Yi was already weak. It turns out that all members of the royal family are easy to get along with.
At first, she was not used to the cuisine in Gangneung, but now she is used to it and is quite addicted to it.
The average price of one foot of silk is 120 qian per foot, and the average price of one pound of linen is 30 qian per catty.
"I'll pay it back tomorrow, I'll pay it back tomorrow, and I'll pay back all the positions and the difference tomorrow," Wen Yi said with a sad face.
This person was recruited by Yang Ming from the county governor's office. He turned out to be the chief clerk of Jiangling County and was a good writer.
If Wen Yi is killed this time, will everyone in the other clans be in danger?
Yang Ming won't kill him now because he hasn't seen the money. When will the other party spit out all the money?
As if grasping a life-saving straw, Wen Yi nodded quickly and said: "It is indeed awarded by His Highness the King of Han."
Other than that, do whatever you like and no one will care about you.
sure,
Yang Ming had someone calculate that the rent for an acre of land was 3 shi of millet, which was about 200 catties. The rent for one acre of land was 20 feet of silk and 3 catties of hemp.
Nodding? That means the King of Han broke the law. If he doesn’t nod, he breaks the law.
Wen Yi was stunned and speechless.
Yang Ming leaned back and sneered repeatedly.
Because he has realized the seriousness of the matter, the job field is just an appetizer, the big one is yet to come.
After that, Yang Ming shouted outside: "Someone, take him out."
Wen Yi hurriedly said: "It was a common mistake, but fortunately His Highness corrected it and it didn't lead to a big mistake."
Shi Cao is in charge of earthwork, public affairs, Jinliang (derry bridge), boats and carts, and crafts.
"Don't do this or this?" Yang Ming said with a smile: "If it is really taught by the King of Han, I will never look into it carefully."
How old is this kid in front of me? He actually made me stunned for a moment.
Because these people will become his team members in the future like Li Jingfang Xuanling, so we have to be cautious.
Yang Ming smiled and said: "If you don't have an official position, you will be in vain. Duke Wen needs to be more careful in his words. If the common people call themselves ministers, it will be suspected of overstepping their bounds. Of course, I am just reminding you."
But after Wen Yi left office, he still took twenty coins and refused to pay them back. This was a crime of losing his head.
Seeing that the fire was almost done, Yang Ming asked again: "When will Wen Gong's twenty acres of land be returned?"
Hu Cao is in charge of household affairs, temple worship, and farming and mulberry affairs.
It turned out that Pang Ben from the front office came to report that a lame man named Wen Yi came with money.
In fact, this kind of people cannot be killed casually. You have to take care of other people's mood.
The taxation in the Sui Dynasty was called rent and yongtiao, rent means paying grain, tiao means paying cloth, and yong means paying grain and cloth to avoid the corvee.
Yang Ming didn't have any signatures around him. As for why there wasn't one, you have to ask Yang Jian and Dugu Jialuo.
These are all officials of the royal palace. The subordinates under them can appoint themselves, because the subordinates have no grades. Generally, they range from three to five, but there are also seven or eight. As long as you have money to pay them, you can support them.
Twenty will do.
He felt more and more that he could not be kind today, so he hurriedly moved Han Wang Yang Liang to support him, but he did not expect that the other party's last question left him unable to answer.
City order, in charge of market transactions.
This guy is difficult to deal with.
Fa Cao, in charge of postal services and judicial affairs.
Come on, your mother, are you trying to settle an old score with me?
This is converted to 640,200 qian, rounded up to 650 qian.
Even Chen Shuyi was puzzled and asked Yang Ming privately if there was any grudge between them.
As for the warehouse governor, this is easy to understand, that is, the warehouse manager.
One liter of rice per person per day, twenty dollars, enough food to feed one's tube.
But for some reason, she didn't like to see Gao Yue very much. Every time she saw a nose that was neither a nose nor an eye, she never gave him a good look.
Yang Ming chuckled: "If you don't have an official status, why do you call yourself a subordinate?"
What is still missing is: lottery, wine offering, gold, household, military, law, scholars and meritorious officials, warehouse governor, city order, etc.
Wen Yi suddenly felt that he was like a sheep falling into a tiger's mouth.
The general manager's office is an official, and according to the law, the general manager can make changes on his own initiative.
There is no such provision in the Kaihuang Law, but Yang Ming is willing to argue with you about this, what can you do?
So Yang Ming randomly decided on a number, just two thousand strings.
How did the Wen family provoke this little devil?
He originally thought that the other party would let the Wen family go for the sake of King Han's face, but now that he thought about it, King Han's face was nothing, and it would not work in front of this little King of Hell.
The main task of the Jingzhou Governor's function is actually only one: no rebels in the jurisdiction.
When Wen Yi saw this, he was completely confused. If this matter was brought to the King of Han, the King of Han would definitely deny it. Then it would not be a crime of moving public land privately, but it might be a house raid.
Yong refers to the amount of money that needs to be paid if you do not perform corvee service. It is called Gengfu. Gengfu is a large amount of money, but it is not easy to calculate, because Gengfu is calculated by male, not by land.
So Yang Ming nodded and said: "At this time tomorrow, I will wait here, waiting for Mr. Wen to hand over all the money that should be paid."
The smile on Yang Ming's face disappeared instantly, and he said with sharp eyes: "You mean, the King of Han will reward you with twenty acres of Gongshe Field?"
Wen Yi hurriedly said: "I'll return it tomorrow."
What does he mean? Why do you care about a title? I was once an official, shouldn't I call myself a subordinate?
When meal time comes, she will definitely come back, like a cat that smells meat.
For these vacant positions, except for the warehouse governor, who is temporarily held by Xu Jing, Yang Ming wants to slowly choose the other positions.
Of course, Yang Ming would not let them work in vain. He would not save this small amount of money, and he gave it very generously.
The document contains a record of the land he received from the county government. It clearly states that he received twenty acres of land, which is two thousand acres.
After Wen Yi took it, he roughly scanned the contents and suddenly panicked.
They had all boarded their own carriages, but they were still trembling and frightened.
Early the next morning, Yang Ming was still asleep when he was woken up by Xu Jing.
Wen Yi, who left the General Manager's Mansion, seemed to have walked through the gates of hell. He was covered in sweat, as if he had taken a bath.
So he waved his hands desperately. If his leg hadn't been lame, he could stand up now.
"No, no, no, it was not given by His Highness the King of Han, but by the greed of the common people. Your Highness, please bypass me."
The public land cannot be rewarded. These fields are used for daily official expenses of the government. The officials in the yamen all rely on these fields for their livelihood.
He used to be a seventh-rank junior, with a land of sixty acres. The extra land was added privately with the tacit approval of the King of Han because he was the general manager of the palace.
At present, the Jingzhou General Manager's Office only has Yuan Wendu, Sima Pangben, and Duan Chou as chief clerk.
In other words, Wen Yi needs to hand over 4,390 coins.
This amount of money is just a drop in the bucket for Yang Ming, but for a small family like Wen Yi, it's a lot of money.
In the courtyard in front of the government office, dozens of people began to open the boxes and count the money. The calculation was based on 4,390 yuan, and there was no loss of a single amount.
However, Wen Yi didn't panic at all. He was not as careful as Yang Ming. Instead, he moved half of the family's inventory. He also promised to let Yang Ming be satisfied, so he let him go.
