The fifth time Xiangyang first arrived and caused trouble (3)
"Welcome, I am Feng Fang, the right counselor. If you don't understand anything in business, just ask." The middle-aged man running into the court from outside was sweating profusely and bowed to Zheng Yunming, who was sitting alone in the hall, and then loudly commanded the yamen runners and the kudi to open the door to transport the salary.
The transfer commander of the Shihu Cao had two counselors as his assistant. Zheng Yunming was the left counselor and had to overwhelm Feng Fang in his order. However, Feng Fang gave the meeting ceremony in this way, and it was inevitable that he would be a little abrupt in the face of the official.
Zheng Yunming stood up from the bench and quickly walked to Feng Fang: "But is there any urgent official business?"
Feng Fang wiped his sweat while panting, saying, "It's not just a matter of causing trouble for the money. This time, the guards in Xiangyang City surrounded the warehouse in the south of the Transport Department for the arrears of military pay. If they don't appease them quickly, something big will happen!"
Zheng Yunming asked in surprise: "Is it so difficult for the financial and taxation of the Mansion Taiwan to even be paid for the food and salary of the soldiers guarding the city?"
"What are we doing?" Feng Fang glared: "The Transport Department has money and grain distribution. It was the general of the Northern Army who reported to the commander that Deputy Chief Fan had a partial general who faked the list and earned empty salary. Lord Zhao ordered that the food and food were not allowed to be distributed before the investigation was found out. Deputy Chief Fan's army was the most arrogant. As soon as the news came out, they gathered privately to surround the treasury, claiming that they would not send money and grain to themselves. Lord Cao An had already led his troops to defend the warehouse himself. He asked me to transport money and grain to distribute it quickly, otherwise it would be a little late, I am afraid that those arrogant soldiers would really burn the treasury and Lord An together."
"So that's it," Zheng Yunming suddenly had a plan in his mind: "I will also go with my husband to pay military pay and solve the problem of empty quota?"
Feng Fang stared at the new young man in surprise: "What can you do?"
Cao Anzhi, the transfer officer of Jinghu Transport Author, was burning at this time. Standing beside him were the ten minor officials of the Transport Authority and dozens of water-run soldiers who had just been transferred from behind. Later, there was the warehouse of the Transport Office of Xiangyang Prefecture Transport Office where hundreds of thousands of dollars of grain was piled up, and standing in front of him were more than a thousand angry soldiers from the Deputy Chief Commander of Jinge.
The blade shining with cold light swayed on An Zhi's nose, accompanied by the increasingly angry shouts of soldiers, buried An Zhi's team in the raging waves like a flood.
"Don't be confused! Listen to me, money and food will arrive soon, and it will arrive soon! Don't be a traitor in a moment of confusion!" An Zhi's faint cry was soon overwhelmed by angry slaughter.
"Don't listen to him! I've been silent for an hour, and there's money and food! Where is the money and food? No money and food come at all!"
"Money and grain are here!" A young and high-pitched voice sounded from outside.
The crowd turned their heads and looked at the mutiny soldiers. Behind him were twenty big trucks loaded with money boxes from the transport department.
A man covered in armor pushed everyone away and walked up to ask loudly: "I have never seen you in Xiangyang Mansion. Who are you?"
Zheng Yunming saw a familiar figure at a glance and shouted loudly: "Guo Dachun, who do you think I am!"
Seeing Zheng Yunming appearing Guo Dachun, a veteran soldier from the Jinge Metropolitan Command, who wanted to find a crack in the ground, had to stand up and introduce: "This is the newly arrived vice-chairman of the Transportation Commission, Lord Zheng Yunming, who just took office yesterday."
"Okay, since it's the person from the Transportation Office," Gang Jiang waved Park Dao in his hand fiercely, "Hurry up and send the money to everyone, otherwise be careful of your life!"
"The money and food are here!" Zheng Yunming smiled and patted the money box beside him: "You can get it right away."
A burst of cheers erupted from the person.
An Zhijian's situation eased, wiped his cold sweat all over his head, and shouted: "Everyone, come back to the camp quickly! I will bring the money and food to General Fan later. You will be able to get the money and salary from General Fan soon!"
"No!" Zheng Yunming raised his leg and placed it on the shaft of the cart, pointing at the street with his hands diagonally: "It's here, it will be distributed on the street on the spot. Come and get the roster!"
Everyone looked at each other, and the Transport Office personally took charge of the work of distributing money and grain, which was the first in the history of the Song Dynasty.
At this time, Fan Wenbin, deputy governor of Jing and E, was riding a horse with several confidants, and rushed to the Nancheng Warehouse from outside the city. A quarrel with Huang Guobi outside the city caused Huang Guobi to almost draw his sword to take action. If he really started fighting on Huang Guobi's one-acre and three-point land, General Fan would definitely not be able to get it. Fortunately, someone came to report the military chaos in the Nancheng Warehouse at this time, which gave Fan Wenbin an excuse to leave quickly.
When several riders arrived at the intersection of the street, the intersection was already surrounded by curious people. No wonder people were curious. When a strange scene was staged on the street outside the Nancheng Treasury.
Thousands of officers and soldiers from the Deputy Chief Command of Jing and E were neatly arranged in a square array. In front of the square array were eight minor officials from the Transportation Commission. Two minor officials were in groups, one was responsible for singing the name loudly, and the other was responsible for distributing food and salary in front of the table.
"Liang Xiaoyi!"
"Yes!" An excited man ran out of the team and stood in front of the officer.
"Distribute 1,000 yuan in money and salary! Fifty kilograms of military rations and rice! I ordered it in person, and I didn't recognize it when I came out!" Another official sang loudly, and the money and rice were brought up together.
"Li Shiwu!"
"have!"
...........
A prepared person who is maintaining order will watch the arrival of the Grandmaster, and hurried forward to report: "Master, the Transportation Commission is sending us money and food. It seems that the top of the mountain has already revealed your grievances."
Fan Wenbin snorted from his nostrils, and a close confidant general immediately scolded: "Bastard, why don't you wait for the general to arrive?"
"It's not our business, it's that... the little official named Zheng told us brothers to get it right away, otherwise we won't send it..."
"I said it." A young official from the Transport Department came towards him: "Student Zheng Yunming, I have met the governor."
President Fan, who was riding on the horse, looked Zheng Yunming up and down, and couldn't help but sneer, "It turns out that he is just a doll." He immediately turned over and dismounted and raised his head: "Go and call your Lord An, who is in charge of the business, to come. I won't talk nonsense with you, a baby who is still dry."
"Mr. An has never arranged this matter, so it is the idea of the officials to name the officials in the street." Zheng Yunming replied in a humble and arrogant manner.
Fan Wenbin glared at his eyes, and his big bearded face looked quite scary: "Have you ever told you that the rules of this army have always been handed over to the general by the Transportation Department, and then the general will take measures together! Just like you are just like you are directly distributed on the street, bustling like doing business, how can it be?"
"But that is the old rule in the past. The subordinates are so powerful, because they are considering the reputation of the general." Zheng Yunming bowed and replied: "Sir is in a rift now..."
The confidants behind Fan Wenbin interrupted Zheng Yunming: "What a rift? That's a frame-up by a traitor!" "How could the Grand Marshal withdrew the food and salary!"
"That's right, however, the rumor-maker only needs to speak a few words, but the investigation of the commander has not been achieved for many years. The general has to endure the advice and criticism from the people and the peak. This is not a loss of reputation for Marshal Fan. But as long as the public release of food and wages are spread, there will be rumors about the corruption and deduction of adults. How can the General Office openly investigate a general who opens the money and money? Therefore, Yu country and General Yu themselves are both decentralized."
His words were righteous and strict. Fan Wenbin was not good at refuting it on the street, saying that he had created 30% of his fake names and put all his military pay into his pocket. He had to pretend to be satisfied and nodded, "You baby official, are really smart, good. If you continue like this, who would dare to say that I, Lao Fan, is corrupt..."
While he was talking, he heard the slight official who was paying food and pay in front shouting: "Wang Jiuyi! Wang Jiuyi! Is Wang Jiuyi here?"
There was no movement in the team, and Fan Wenbin couldn't help but blush. This was obviously a pseudonym created by the shogunate master.
"People like Wang Jiuyi," Zheng Yunming shook his head and sighed: "It must be that he could not tolerate the general's strict discipline and ran home privately. Such deserters must be investigated strictly to correct the rules and regulations."
"Yes, you're right." Fan Wenbin turned his head and ordered the deputy general: "Send someone to Wang Jiuyi's hometown to tie this guy up immediately. We must punish him strictly!"
Then he ordered: "You assist the Transport Authority in distributing the food and grass. If someone is found in my camp to embezzle the brothers' lives, the swords and axes under my command will not recognize anyone!"
"The Grand Marshal is indeed a model for the integrity of cultural relics officials in Xiangyang City!" Zheng Yunming took advantage of the situation to flatter the big bearded man: "The subordinates should report this matter to the commander, so that the soldiers and horses near Xiangyang will follow the commander's noble character."
Fan Wenbin only felt that this sentence was pleasant to listen to in one day: "That's right. I can't make money, so don't even think about making money for the bastards in the Northern Army!"
"I was tired all day before I put down my luggage at Xiangyang Mansion. I was so hardworking." Zheng Yunming personally participated in the front line of the Transportation Department and found that this work was not as easy as the legend.
In fact, most of today's work was taken over by him. The Transport Department was usually only responsible for interfacing with the army. How to allocate money and grain to grassroots soldiers after they were paid to the army is nothing to do. This also gives the generals the opportunity to take action.
The most effective way to solve this disadvantage is to go from state institutions to the grassroots level and distribute money and food face to face to every soldier in the organization.
Of course, doing so means that the workload of the financial department will inevitably increase significantly.
Zheng Yunming, who was so tired that he couldn't stand up straight, was breathing while waving his handicaps to inquire about where his room was.
"It's just in Room 15, right? You already have a guest waiting in the room."
Zheng Yunming was shocked again: "Before I arrived at the inn, a guest arrived first?"
(As usual nagging, the ball is red ticket, please don’t care)
