Chapter 327 Turning Back Money (Part 2)

But the facts proved that Li Muyun seemed to be thinking too much. After Li Shimin arrived at the Ministry of Civil Affairs, he didn't say anything to him. He just nodded and entered the yamen. It seemed that there was something else. Instead, a group of old guys wearing civil servants' clothes were cold to him one by one, as if he owed these old guys how much money they had paid.

Fortunately, Li Muyun is a thick-skinned person and doesn't care about these things at all. As for that fat man, he was still deeply immersed in the excitement of earning two thousand guan of money, and he didn't care about what those old guys think of him.

Fortunately, this old guy Tang Jian is quite kind, so he waved to Li Muyun when he passed by: "Xiaoyaohou, come with me, we will settle the money later."

Li Muyun took advantage of the time to say hello to Tang Jian and lowered his voice and asked, "Uncle Tang, it's only two thousand guan. Is it necessary to make such a big noise?"

"Don't ask me about this. I still don't know what's going on here. Those old guys suddenly asked to come and see the payment process of the Ministry of Civil Affairs during the morning court this morning, but I can't disagree." Tang Jian seemed to be helpless, patted Li Muyun on the shoulder and gave him a look of self-requirement.

What does it mean? Even Tang Jian doesn’t know? Li Muyun’s heart skipped a beat.

But it was the old saying just now. When he was not clear about the situation, he could only deal with the moves and adapt to the situation.

...

After following Tang Jian into the Civil Affairs Office, he had arrived at the main hall of the yamen for a while. Li Shimin and others had already sat down inside, and were talking nonsense.

Several large trucks were parked in the square outside the main hall, and the cars were filled with boxes after boxes. Obviously, they should be the money prepared for Li Muyun.

When it comes to this money, I have to mention it. In fact, in the Tang Dynasty, there was already silver circulating. However, although the silver could be circulating at that time, its value was reflected in the precious metals, and the replacement ratio with copper coins would change.

In some cases, one tael of silver can even be exchanged for 1,200 coins of copper coins, but in other cases, it can only be exchanged for 800 coins. This price is not certain and will change at any time.

Therefore, in order not to shrink his property, Li Muyun knew that copper coins were inconvenient to transport, but he could only ask for this thing. After all, Kaiyuan Tongbao in the early Tang Dynasty was as strong as the RMB in later generations, and more reliable than silver and gold.

Speaking of which, when Li Muyun saw that the money on the big cart was ready, he naturally did not delay it. After all, there were a group of old ghosts sitting in the room. God knew what medicine they sold in the gourd. In order to avoid the long night dreams, he took the initiative to say to Tang Jian: "Shangshu Tang, since the money is already here, do you think I can withdraw the money and leave after signing a letter?"

"Yes, Xiaoyaohou just signs the account book." Tang Jian naturally didn't want Li Muyun to stay here for more, and nodded as he said.

However, people said they would come from whatever they were afraid of. Just as Li Muyun walked towards the slight official holding the account book, a voice came from the lobby of the Civil Affairs Office: "Xiaoyaohou, two thousand stagnants of silver, do you want to take it away without slaughtering?"

"Uh..." Li Muyun glanced at the old man who came out, as if he didn't know him, but looking at his purple robe, he hesitated and bowed and said, "This master, Lord Tang is a little busy with official business today, so it is naturally inconvenient to disturb him. It is not too late to go back and count it."

The old man didn't give Li Muyun any face and said stubbornly: "How can that be done? This is the national treasury. If you give too much, wouldn't it be wasted people's wealth and cream?"

Li Muyun didn't want to cause trouble at this time, so he didn't have the same knowledge as the old man. He smiled and said, "Don't worry, sir, the official is also a person who knows the depth. If there are too many things afterwards, he will definitely send them back to Shangshu Tang."

As a result, the old man seemed to be holding on with Li Muyun, and smiled and said, "Is that so? I don't believe it!"

Oh my go! This is the legendary search for trouble, right?! The fire in Li Muyun's belly popped up, and he put away his smile and asked, "What should he do according to his wishes?"

"Please check it out in person!" A guy guarding the cart came over, walked around Tang Jian, came to Li Muyun, and bowed his hand symbolically and said.

"Who are you?" Li Muyun glanced at the new guy. This guy didn't even have the right to enter the house, so he naturally didn't have to be polite to him.

"Men Wailang, the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Ministry of Finance and Economics, Meng Xian." The man was so awesome and seemed to not take Li Muyun seriously at all.

"What do you mean is to let me count all the money here bit by bit?" Li Muyun glanced at the big cars and finally understood why so many people came here today. It turns out that these guys are all watching the fun.

You should know that the six tribes of the Tang Dynasty are actually all in the outer city of the palace. In other words, if you want to enter the six tribes, you have to enter the imperial city. So if Li Muyun comes to withdraw money, he will naturally not be able to bring too many people.

Under such circumstances, if Li Muyun wanted to count out two thousand guan, he would have to go into battle in person. No matter how fast he counted, he would inevitably be the fact that he would make a fool of himself.

Li Muyun almost instantly understood the tricks, and countless "grass mud mothers" ran by in his heart.

But now the matter is here. Li Shimin sat in the lobby of the Civil Affairs Office of the People's Government without saying a word. Obviously, he was also watching the excitement. Li Muyun had almost no choice but to have two roads in front of him.

The first way is to clear the money with the fat man.

The second way is, there is nothing to say, patting your butt and leaving, avoiding making a fool of yourself on the spot, but it also leaves a laughing stock for people.

I have to say that cultural people are really cruel to cheat people, and they are so ruthless.

Although the fat man was heartless, it did not mean that he was a fool. After following Li Muyun and listening to Meng Xian's request, his face began to look ugly. He took a step forward and wanted to argue with him. However, Li Dakishman quickly held him down, gave him a reassuring look and said, "It is a good thing for a few adults to be so cautious. This is the attitude you should do work. Fat man, it's better to obey our orders than to be respectful, so just count it."

"What? Third brother, you..., why are you stupid? They are obviously..."
