Chapter 2066 The magical effect of the transfer envoy and the skin, the destination of Jin Baozi and
"As the saying goes, money can cover your eyes and make your head dizzy, and officials who are obsessed with their minds can do evil... Hey, now that I am such a noble and high-ranking official, it is not only busy and complicated, but when we were engaged in rebellion, we were only fighting against the dog officials who were pursuing private interests and neglecting public affairs.
If you do it right, now you have to be worthy of the big turban on your head, and you must be able to hold it..."
Yang Lin took a long breath and said softly.
After all, he, the golden leopard, was promoted by Xiao Tang to run an escort agency under the name of Xiao Jiaji, the general manager, and he was already an expert in controlling logistics and transportation. Later, when Shuibo Liangshan was appointed to his duties, Yang Lin also served as a military resource for Zhuzhai.
He also played an indispensable role in collecting affairs, transferring money, food and military equipment to various ministers, transporting logistics and military supplies to various armies in a timely manner, and transporting money and food to various places to capture state capitals and pacify the people. Now he is also regarded as the founding hero of the Qi Dynasty.
Inspecting various transshipment envoys, and also in charge of the transportation and distribution of wealth, officials and residences. It is true that there are many people and important things, and these days have been extremely busy.
In particular, when the Qi Dynasty merged with the Song Dynasty, Yang Lin followed the orders of Xiao and Tang Dynasties to inspect the expropriation of Qiangu, warehouse cashiers, and tax transfer matters in Jinghu, Guangdong, Guangxi, Sichuan, and other places. It is said that he was also sent by the center of the state power to inspect the military and civilians in the local capitals.
Among the officials in government affairs, finance and taxation, prison law and discipline, etc., they are the one who can make the most lucrative profits. If he is a little greedy, Yang Lin is now in charge of the salt and iron collection of the imperial court, and Jiang Jing, the Minister of Household Affairs of the Ministry of Finance.
Just a little manipulation in the documents submitted can teach you how to accumulate gold and jade and make a fortune...
However, as one of the earliest people to surrender to Xiao Tang, Yang Lin had traveled in the rivers and lakes, and Yang Lin, who was quite insightful, not only knew the truth that things must turn against each other, but also knew very well that his brother Juyi was now loyal to the emperor.
What are the taboos that he must never violate? Yang Lin couldn't help but say something in a long voice. However, the speaker has no intention, and the listener has intention. Now we are both in the Jinghu South Road Administration Office, Tanzhou's Department Hall, doing
After hearing this, Zhang Ren and Li Yi, who were subordinates to Yu Hou as the capital's transfer envoy, gave up.
Zhang Ren immediately complained: "Brother Yang Lin, are you telling us two brothers not to use their power to make money for personal gain while taking over the Luzhi Transportation Department? This is too much to underestimate brother Li Yi and me.
Oh! Conscience of heaven and earth, even though we were just gangsters in the market, now we have done everything possible. Si Yuhou is still living in a dream. He inspects the tax cashier of Luzhi Qiangu Warehouse every day, and he feels the huge amount that day.
Terrified...
But now that we have a generous official position and salary, it is enough for us to have enough food and clothing. After all, we brothers are also the heroes who gathered together for righteousness on Shuibo Liang Mountain. We deeply hate the corrupt officials who raped the bones and sucked out the marrow and exploited the people during the Song Dynasty. Not to mention how many times I have done wrong to the country and harmed the people.
I have committed evil deeds. Master has used the water-milling Zen staff to eradicate all injustices in the world, but he will not spare me!"
Li Yi immediately joined in and said, "That's right, we brothers can't help much even with the bookkeeping and accounting, but we are busy running around all day long at my brother's disposal. Although I saw those Song court officials who were looking forward to surrendering and obeying our dynasty, they looked down and looked down upon them.
, When we were in Bianliang, we were still jealous of the petty officials, but now we are very proud when we see those guys greeting us. But in the past few days, the state audit money and grain officials from the Hengzhou, Shaozhou and Wugang armies surrendered.
We brothers are itchy to be willing to pay tens of thousands of yuan for a favor, but we definitely don’t violate the rules of accepting inspections, road inspections, and tax collection.”
"The two brothers have thought too much. In the face of huge profits, I also know that it is not easy to be prudent, so I am just talking to myself. I have no doubt that you two will be blinded by the profit and interfere with state affairs."
Yang Lin said with a smile, but his face suddenly brightened, and then he quickly straightened up and asked quickly: "But the two brothers said that the Junzhou government office under Jinghu Road has already surrendered to the officials.
As a favor, privately indicating that I will honor you two with a lot of money?"
When Zhang Ren saw this, he immediately replied: "Yes! Moreover, the servant also said that the benefits of tens of thousands of guan were only given to me and brother Li Yi, and that we also pay great attention to profits and filial piety, and asked us to transfer them to you, brother. This
But don’t you clearly want to teach us to be short-tongued and merciless?”
However, after Zhang Ren and Li Yi finished speaking, they patted their chests and said that they would never accept money or bribes to exceed the law of making koji. However, their faces still showed a bit of pain and reluctance, but they
To show off a magnanimous person who cares about wealth and is honest, that appearance is actually quite funny.
Yang Lin nodded and said meaningfully: "There may not be no good officials in the Song Dynasty. Even in the Qi Dynasty, officials governed the Qingming Dynasty. But the more profit there is in an official office, the more corrupt officials there will inevitably be.
...Now that our court has taken over the Song Dynasty's Transport Department and verified the accounts, it is difficult to clear the old accounts clearly, which is convenient for some greedy and treacherous officials to take advantage of the opportunity to line their own pockets. And your Majesty appeases most of the Song Dynasty officials who are willing to surrender.
People are employed according to their original positions, but it is difficult to distinguish between loyal and traitorous officials in more than 400 military and state offices. After all, it is not something that can be done overnight if the officials are to be governed in a clear and transparent manner... and we cannot teach those officials who were accustomed to being corrupt officials in the Song Dynasty.
The servants of corrupt officials thought that by submitting to our Qi Dynasty, they could still hide their superiors and bully their subordinates, embezzle and make money in the same way as before, and continue to do evil deeds of squeezing the people."
After thinking about it for a while, Yang Lin suddenly had an idea in his mind, and he hurriedly told Zhang Ren and Li Yi: "When the two brothers go to Xiazhou for business again, if there is still a cashier in charge of the matter, we will collect the money and food."
The tax-collecting officials are asking you to do favors, so there is no need to accept all of them. However, whoever wants to establish a relationship must clearly remember the amount of money and materials they receive, and they will surely be of great use..."
However, Yang Lin suddenly thought: because Zhang Ren and Li Yi were originally gangsters who hung out outside the Jujube Gate in Bianliang City and often stole vegetables from the vegetable garden of Daxiangguo Temple. Even though they had known each other for many years, Yang Lin also knew them well.
The two have a deep sense of loyalty and have a certain bottom line in how they behave. However, the appearance, temperament, words and deeds of Zhang Ren and Li Yi still can't help but reveal a bit of cunning and vulgarity. They don't look like upright and upright officials at all, but more like
During the Song Dynasty, those Yuhou officials who relied on the power of the powerful to make a fortune and worked as errands in the palaces of important officials in the imperial court...
Among the cronies of the powerful and powerful people, there are many minions who rely on authority and ask for money. Corrupt officials must make clever excuses to make money for themselves, and they must try to keep their official positions. They must also collude with the top and bottom, open up connections, and be able to get patrols.
Prosecution Department, remind the Criminal and Prison Department that the officials patrolling the various military prefectures are connivant and covering up.
Especially at this critical moment when the Qi Dynasty replaced the Song Dynasty, I am afraid that many officials in the Song Ting Prefecture who were used to seeking personal gain were eager to reconnect with the human relations in the officialdom and seek the protection of officials and officials. As a patrol officer, Yang Lin took over the transfer envoys of the Song Ting.
The transfer envoys of the capital who count the taxes and grains cannot personally go to all the roads, prefectures, and county offices to inspect. Zhang Ren and Li Yi, as Yuhou under the transfer envoys of the capital, have great authority.
Even though it is not a big deal, it can also be an indispensable link in connecting state officials who seek personal gain and seek bribes step by step to win over Shangguan officials.
When ordinary military and state officials look down on people with Zhang Ren and Li Yi's appearance, most of them will have preconceptions, thinking that they are also powerful officials and confidants who can be bribed. Of course, they will try to please Zhang Ren and Li Yi in every possible way.
, Ying Feng fawned over them, thinking that they could be bribed as well as the close confidants of the powerful officials sent by the Song Dynasty Transfer Envoy to the local areas for inspection... Then how many corrupt officials could be induced to show their fox tails by this trip, and could teach the court roughly
Can you tell clearly who is corrupt and who is honest, who is loyal and who is treacherous among the large number of Song court officials who surrendered?
