Dressed as Su Peisheng

Kangxi 50 years

On the ninth day of February, Tongzhou Government Office

"Eunuch Su?"

As soon as Su Wei came out of the hut, a person appeared in front of him.

This person is not someone else, but Li Zhangshan, one of the disturbing dreams last night.

Su Wei looked back at the hut, then looked down at himself, always feeling a little awkward.

"You, know our family?"

"Hey, who doesn't know that Eunuch Su is famous all over the capital?"

Li Zhang smiled flatteringly, "The villain also often goes to Beijing, and has heard a lot about Mr. Su's deeds."

Su Wei has long been immune to this set of sycophantic skills, so he gave a weak reply and walked to the front yard.

"Eunuch Su, are you going out?" Li Zhangshan followed closely.

"Yes, my lord is busy checking accounts today, and I don't need anyone to wait on me. Our family is going to go out for a walk."

"That's just right," Li Zhangshan's eyes lit up, "No one is more familiar with Tongzhou City than the villain. Let the villain do something today and take Eunuch Su for a stroll around the city?"

Su Wei turned his head to look at Li Zhangshan, and Li Zhangshan's face immediately showed earnestness and sincerity...

Chengbei Wharf

"Master, how do you sell this dried fish?"

"Twenty copper coins for half a catty, all dried from fresh river fish. It's delicious."

"Give me two catties!"

"okay."

Su Gonggong took the packaged dried fish heartily, and Bayan handed over a string of copper coins from behind.

Li Zhangshan laughed nonchalantly beside him, his purse was filled with real money, and today he even brought a lot of silver bills, but he really didn't bring any copper coins.

The rumored Grand Duke Su has been strolling around Tongzhou City all morning.I bought four roasted sweet potatoes, two packs of Dashunzhai sugar fire, three small cans of sauced tofu, one pack of western candy, and ate seven or eight skewers of grilled fish by the roadside, plus the small dried fish just now, the total Not even five liang of silver was spent.

Li Zhangshan carried several thousand taels of silver with him, but unfortunately he didn't find a place to use it.

"Eh?"

Grandpa Su, who was still walking around in front of him, suddenly stopped and stood in front of a merchant ship that was unloading, staring at two pieces of colorful glass.

"There is a door!"

Li Zhangshan knew that the colorful glass was a foreign thing brought in by Huizhou merchants. It is said that those foreigners with strange looks like to use this kind of glass as windows.

"Eunuch Su, are you interested?"

Su Wei was taken aback by Li Zhangshan who came up suddenly, and looked back at the familiar boats parked on the pier.

"Ah, it's pretty..."

"The shopkeeper—where are the people on board?"

Li Zhangshan immediately turned on the horsepower and yelled into the boat, "Come out quickly, there is business!"

"What business? Jingli is here to pick up the goods at this time?"

The person who came out of the boat looked like a calm Huizhou merchant, but when he saw the person on the pier, he was taken aback suddenly, "Hey, Su——"

"Come here quickly! Wrap up these two foreign things for me! Send them to Tongzhou government office in a while!"

Li Zhangshan kept speaking authentically, afraid that the ancestor beside him would suddenly change his mind.

Wu Xuesong stood on the boat for a while, then walked down in a daze, "Master Cai, is this your friend?"

"moneybags……"

Li Zhangshan couldn't understand for a moment, and looked at the people beside him with some confusion.

Eunuch Su blinked, "This is an official from the Tongzhou Grain Office, and he accompanied me out for a stroll today. Since he likes these two pieces of glass, you can sell them to him and give him a [-]% discount. It can be regarded as thanking him for his hospitality today.”

"what?"

Li Zhangshan suddenly felt something was wrong, "No, Eunuch Su, this is me—"

"My lord, a total of 200 taels."

Wu Xuesong stood between the two of them with a smile, "Since our rich man gave you a discount, the little one will give you a small change, which is 190 taels. Do you think you are in cash or a money order?"

Two pieces of glass sold for 200 taels, worthy of Huizhou merchants!

Su Dacaidong secretly gave Wu Xuesong a thumbs up, and then walked forward with a group of guards who were secretly laughing.

Among the surging crowd, a few figures stopped in front of the food stall, averted their gaze towards the pier, and silently merged into the flow of people.

After a while, it disappeared without a trace.

In the evening, Tongzhou Government Office

Eunuch Su, who had been shopping all day, finally collected all the snacks and specialties in Tongzhou, and then returned to the government office in big bags.

Prince Yong, who had been looking at the accounts all day, was behind the desk, raising his head and beating between his eyebrows.

"You still know how to come back? Why don't you just live outside?"

"Hee hee..." Su Wei smirked, and bribed Prince Yong with a pack of dried fish.

"I'm an inspection site. Tongzhou has developed water transportation. I also want to open a branch here."

"It's making money again, you probably don't have anything left in your mind except money." Prince Yong chomped on the dried fish angrily.

"Everyone earns a decent [-] silver, and it's not from corruption."

Su Wei lay down on the desk and poured a cup of tea for the fourth elder brother, "That Li Zhangshan has been with me for a day today. If I were softer, the thousand 800 taels would easily go into my pocket."

"They are really smart," the fourth elder brother sneered, "while Aqinai pleaded guilty, he tried his best to please me. The book he gave Huang Ama when he first took office has now become his gold medal for avoiding death." Huang Ama be patient, the current situation is really a headache."

"Didn't you tell Hongsheng that we are here to inspect the warehouse, not to rectify the officials. Anyway, you just report the truth to the Long Live Lord."

Su Wei took out a piece of fruit candy and stuffed it into the fourth elder brother's mouth, "It's already our money to catch those premeditated assassinations."

"That's right," the fourth elder brother closed his eyes, "Huang Ama should be more concerned about whether the warehouses in various places can produce food stably, rather than how many moths are born in it."

February [-]

Qianqing Palace received the memorial from Tongzhou.

Yinzhen, Prince He Shuoyong, said: "The ministers followed the edict and surveyed the three warehouses in the west, middle and south of Tongzhou, a total of 370 six warehouses. Except for the seven warehouses that have been empty, the courtyard has 460 warehouses..."

"... 270 six sheds of rice that have not been disbursed in the country, and 48 shens of rice that has been disbursed and half of the rice is left. There is also discolored rice, less than 45%, which cannot be stored for a long time. Among them, there are more than half of the remaining rice, [-] granary."

"As a result, the discolored rice is kept in the warehouse, so that the new rice cannot be returned to the warehouse, and more of it is stored in the dew. It is steamed by the rain, and it is easy to cause mildew. Please send a member of the minister, and the governor of the warehouse, Aqi Nai, to remove this first. The rice that has changed color will be sold according to the price reduction regulations. The old rice will be empty, and the new rice that has been stored will also be included in the warehouse.”

"Afterwards, all kings and below, when receiving rice, each of them should receive it according to the warehouse! Once the warehouse is empty, let it go! If you still open a new warehouse by force, and if there is half of it left, the supervisor of the warehouse will report it to the warehouse. The governor's question is for reference, and the general Mi officials will be handed over to the Ministry of Punishment for strict discussion and punishment!"

"When the rice is released, each banner will send a leader to monitor and restrain it. If the supervisor does not give good rice, but mixes discolored rice, he will be ordered to collect it. It is also permissible for the officials who collect rice to report to the governor of the storehouse, and the Supervision issues will be handed over to the Ministry of Punishments for strict discussion."

"The rule is that the collection of rice and stones is limited to two months! If there is any unreasonable delay, the distribution will be stopped. If the supervisor of the storehouse delays, the supervisor will be handed over to the Ministry of punishment for discussion."

"According to A Qi Nai, the governor of the warehouse, when the supervisor of each warehouse is replaced, there is often mutual blame with the previous supervisor. The cause is often the rice of the previous supervisor, or the beige color is mildewed, or there is a deficit in the amount. Supervision is difficult to accept. Therefore, these old supervisors with deficits should be kept in prison and released, and they will be replaced after the investigation of compensation and punishment in the future."

"Because of poor preservation, there are often mildewed and discolored rice in each warehouse. If there is less than [-]% of the old rice, the governor of Zhili should write a document and send all the prefectures and counties to try to transport it away. Selling it in the spring will be of great benefit to the people. "

"In addition, there is rice that was paid for the wages of the warehouse workers. It was piled up outside, moldy and rotted into ashes. It was not included in the count. Now I am afraid that some unscrupulous people will mix this up to make up for the foundation. It is not certain. Please grant farming The people, let them transport it according to their ability, and it will be beneficial to fertilize the fields. If there is still good rice in it, it will still be sold at a reduced price."

"If this is the case, there will be no room for misappropriation in the warehouse, and no grain for abandonment in the land..."

When Lord Kangxi read the memorial, the wrinkles between his brows seemed to have eased a lot. The cinnabar pen fell under the memorial and wrote only two words, "Yiyi!"

Prince Yong's eloquent memorial changed the entire Tongzhou sky.

In the future, new rice will be brought into the store in time, old rice will be distributed in time, and the discolored rice will be taken away by the counties in Zhili at any time.If you want to buy and sell and make a profit from it, it will be even more difficult.

The supervisor of each warehouse must not only be monitored by the person who withdraws it, but also clear the accounts with the next successor, otherwise he will be punished by staying in office.

As for Aqinai, Li Zhangshan and the others, although they have not been taken into custody for the time being, a huge hole has been leaked in their accounts after being wiped out by the fourth elder brother.If they can't make up for it before the next one takes over, they have to block their heads.

Zhao Jinfu, Cai Yue and others who were imprisoned have been handed over to the Ministry of Punishment, intending to assassinate the prince, and they will be punished for the crime.

Although, Cai Yue still has old accounts accumulated over the years, thinking that he can blackmail others and save himself.

However, the guarding officer told him very bluntly that the Lord Long Live had said it, and the old responsibility should not be pursued.

That night, Cai Yue was wrapped up in a mat and thrown into a mass grave in the suburbs of Beijing.

February [-]th, on the north bank of the Grand Canal

The fourth elder brother kept his promise and took Su Wei to see the burning lighthouse.

Standing under the octagonal pagoda with brick and wood structure, Su Wei felt very touched.

In fact, in his previous life, he had seen a burning lighthouse in Beijing.

He remembered that a tour guide who was leading a tour group beside him said that in the 18th year of Kangxi, the capital was hit by an earthquake, and the tower of the Lantern Tower collapsed, and a tooth of Buddha and hundreds of relics were found.

However, it was the 19th year of Kangxi when he traveled here, and he had never experienced that earthquake.

"Is there really a relic in this pagoda?" Su Wei turned around and asked the fourth elder brother.

The fourth elder brother shook his head, "I don't know, there must be one. This tower was rebuilt more than ten years ago, and we didn't pay attention to it."

"Then I'll go back and ask someone."

Su Wei looked up at the bell on the tower, a little familiar and a little strange.

In fact, he was a little homesick...

"Baked sweet potatoes, baked potatoes..."

There was a sudden cry of selling not far away, and Su Wei, who had hot eyes, didn't want to be seen by the fourth elder brother, so he turned around quickly and ran towards the old man pushing the car.

"I'm going to buy sweet potatoes. The ones I ate yesterday were delicious."

"You run slowly!" Si elder brother was a little helpless.

The following guards didn't dare to get too close, seeing Eunuch Su running to the old man's side, Bayan and the others leaned over there.

The old man selling sweet potatoes weighed the roasted sweet potatoes for Su Wei.

Su Wei rubbed his hands and watched eagerly, not noticing at all that a pair of passers-by stopped right behind him.

The author has something to say: In the memorial part of this chapter, the Kangxi daily life note is quoted.
