Chapter 351: Master Guo's explanation (2)
Speaking of Guo Peilin going to inspect the salt farms in a few days, Pan Er got up and went to the west wing where he lived last night to get a booklet, and said with a wry smile: "Fourth brother, Lord Guo not only wants to recruit soldiers and horses for you to raise food and money, but also wants to raise funds for the court. Hasn't the court opened a new example of donation? The local governments should persuade the donation of money, and the salt farms also want it."
Han Xiufeng was not surprised by this. After all, the salt farm is so big and there are so many people. There will definitely be some wealthy families who want to donate their top belts or even donate their officials. But after taking the booklet and looking through it, it feels like an eye-opener.
If you fail to get a fame and fortune, you want to donate a student from the supervisory school. 54 taels. Adding 54 taels means that "100% of the supervisory school students" will be allowed to be the integrated provincial examination; "100% of the supervisory school students" want to donate tribute students, 72 taels; "100% of the supervisory school students" and "100% of the supervisory school students" want to donate ranks of ninth ranks, only 40 taels, donate county magistrate, salt ambassador or salt governor ranks of 100 taels; donate 519 taels of the co-girl ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of ranks of rank
Donating a military supervisor only takes four taels of silver, but if you want to donate another 80% of the general title, you can make up for the other 20 taels, and you will become "tenthousand military supervisors", and donate another 60 taels to donate the general title, and so on like civil servants.
In addition, civil officials can donate flower feathers, military officers can donate blue feathers, civil officials and military officers can donate additional ranks, records and various statutes, and civil and military officials who have been dismissed can donate and reopen... In short, everything is available, and you can get the seats in the right place, which is clear at a glance.
Han Xiufeng never expected that the court would compile and publish such detailed lists of various donation items to raise funds. He couldn't help but ask with a smile: "Does Lord Guo want the brothers in the camp to donate some of the donations? I want me to start a big shot?"
Pan Er said with a bitter face: "Fourth brother, Lord Guo has no choice. You know the salt business. If you can't even do this job well, he really can't work with the emperor."
"That's right, the Lord asked him to act as a transportation department, and he couldn't do anything at all," Han Xiufeng sighed lightly and asked curiously: "Changsheng, have you donated?"
Pan Er said awkwardly: "Fourth brother, I can't compare with you. Although I have an errand, I am just a candidate for the salt transportation department. It's not easy to donate additional records. Donating the top tape is of good sound, and it's useless. I'd just spend 200 taels to help my wife donate the entrustment of the entrustment to the ladies."
"You really know how to donate. This seal is a good donation. Your wife must be very happy to know it."
"Fourth brother, you can donate to your sister-in-law, you are now from the fifth grade. If you help your sister-in-law donate, it is not an imperial decree, but an imperial decree."
"The imperial edict is also pleasant, not the imperial edict's wife. But you are right. I have been wronged in the past two years, and I don't even know how long it will be wronged. I can't go home and I don't care about her and my children, so I can only give her a decent person." Thinking of Qin'er, who is far away in her hometown in Ba County, Han Xiufeng felt sad and subconsciously turned over the booklet to see how much money it would cost to donate a pleasant edict.
"Stop looking, I've seen it for you. It's only 500 taels for my sister-in-law to donate the seal script." Pan Er smiled and continued, "Fourth Brother, although you are not a regular seal official, you are not too different. I don't know how many people are jealous. Now, today's not peaceful, and it's so difficult to do official duties. Some things have to be guarded against and have to make some preparations."
How could Han Xiufeng not hear what he meant? Thinking that the court was so harsh to officials, he asked in a low voice: "Are you saying I should donate to the extra level and donate records?"
Pan Er looked behind him and said deeply: "Fourth brother, others don't know you know. The court is so harsh to civil officials who are responsible for defending the territory and military officers who lead troops to fight! He is really allowed to win big battles and not defeat them. Even if you win a hundred battles, you will be impeached and punished. You are not without money, so why don't you don't donate extra grades or record? And this is for you and is also helping Lord Guo."
Han Xiufeng felt that his words made some sense and asked with a smile: "How many levels do you think are appropriate to add and how many times do you want to record?"
"Of course, the more, the better. However, donating and adding levels is not cheap. Donating and adding levels is 500 taels, and donating and adding one level is 125 taels. How many levels are donating and adding, how many times are recorded, it's up to you to make your own decision."
"Then add the level five record twice," Han Xiufeng put down the booklet, picked up the chopsticks and said, "Can you donate the flower feathers? Donate it for me too! Lord Guo treats me well, his business is mine, but these brothers in the camp don't have much money, so I can only donate more."
Pan Er was stunned and then calculated: "The record of level five was added twice, which was 2,750 taels, 1,000 taels of flower feathers, and helping his sister-in-law donate the imperial edict, it would cost 4,250 taels. Fourth brother, this is not a small amount of money, you have to think about it!"
"Isn't it just a waste to earn money? Four thousand two hundred and fifty taels is 4,250 taels. I'll ask Han Bo to give you silver notes later." Han Xiufeng held the chopsticks and waved it. He couldn't help but laugh: "Besides, this silver is not spent in vain. If there are any documents, I can write the "I will give you the deputy envoy of Lianghuai Salt Transportation Department from the fifth-rank top belt and the record of the fifth-level record twice". How long is this official title? It can scare people, hahahaha!"
"That's right, this official name is long and majestic." Looking at Han Xiufeng's energetic look, Pan Er sighed again: "Fourth Brother, Guo Tong asked us to call you Fourth Master. At that time, we thought it sounded intimate. When outsiders heard it, they knew that Lord Guo regarded you as his own. It was not until the emperor issued an edict that we knew that we had not yet gone to Taizhou and had not seen Lord Guo yet, Lord Guo had already submitted a memorial to recommend you."
"But what does this have to do with calling me the Fourth Master?"
"Yes, think about it, Lord Guo of Yunsi Yamen is the biggest, then Sun Yuntong, who is the fourth rank, and Yang Jianqi, who is the fifth rank, and then you are the fourth brother. Aren't you the fourth rank of Yunsi Yamen?"
"It's true, except for Lord Guo, Sun Jiagan and Taiba Supervisor, there is no greater official in the entire transportation department than me, hahaha." Han Xiufeng took a sip of the porridge and asked curiously: "By the way, we will defend Wanfu Bridge, Ambassador Han made an indelible contribution. Did Mr. Guo say he wanted to support him?"
"Mr. Guo didn't know that Ambassador Han and us were fellow townsmen. He didn't know until you went to Taizhou. Mr. Guo originally planned to transfer Sun Yuntong to act as a branch office in Tongzhou, and planned to promote Ambassador Han to be a branch office in Dongtai. After all, Ambassador Han had already donated a sixth-rank top belt. Later, he thought it would be better to let Ambassador Han be a party official. Lord Guo said that the party officer was a people-friendly official like the county magistrate. If he no longer worked as a branch office, he would still be able to help whether he was recruiting people or money or food."
"It's better to be in charge of county officials now?"
"That's what it means."
"It's good for us, but will Ambassador Han be wronged?" Han Xiufeng murmured.
"Fourth brother, Lord Guo will not complain about Ambassador Han. Lord Guo said that the fortune will be promoted and the agency will be appointed to Anfengchang. There are more than 20 games in Huainan, Huainan. Although Anfengchang is not the largest, the number of restaurants and households should be the largest. The Ambassador of Anfengchang Salt Course is also the fattest of the more than 20 games."
"That's good, otherwise I will explain it to Ambassador Han."
The two of them were having a chat, and they talked about the first two salt transport envoys of Lianghuai, former magistrate of Yangzhou and former magistrate of Gan Quan, Yizhen, and Jiangdu County. Pan Er simply stood up again and went to the room to get a stack of Beijing newspapers and diary notes brought from the yamen of the transportation department. Han Xiufeng was about to see that President Gu and Wang Qianli arrived.
"Mr. Han, what are you looking at?"
"Looking at the Beijing News, I was just about to see how the court planned to deal with Liu Liangju, Dan Minglun and others."
Wang Qianli blackmailed those criminals a lot of money, and wanted to know what the criminals would end up, so he couldn't help but pick up the Beijing report: "Master Han, please continue eating, I'll read it to you."
“Okay.”
As soon as Han Xiufeng finished speaking, President Gu sighed: "The Beijing News and Di Chao are good things. I have seen them once in Yangzhou in seven or eight years. Mr. Han, I, Gu Xincheng, can receive the reward from the emperor and see the Beijing News and Di Chao, and they can all occupy your light!"
"Director Gu, what are you saying? Are we all alone? Please sit down quickly."
"Okay, I don't thank you for your kindness and don't say anything." President Gu sat next to Han Xiufeng and turned around and said, "Qianli, read it quickly!"
"Oh, I'll read it." Wang Qianli turned to the one involved Liu Liangju and others, and said with a slight slight remark: "The cabinet, Qishan and others reported to investigate the whereabouts of the lost civil and military officers in Yangzhou. The rebel bandits fled eastward, and Yangzhou was the most in need. He ordered Yang Dianbang, the governor of the grain transport, to supervise the former salt transport commander of Lianghuai, and Liu Liangju, the salt transport commander of Lianghuai, to handle the blockade. The bandits fled into Yangcheng. Yang Dianbang had retreated to the upper reaches in advance. Dan Minglun, Liu Liangju, and the prefect of Yangzhou Prefecture Zhang Tingrui, have nowhere to be found so far, which is really unintentional. Yang Dianbang, Dan Minglun, Liu Liangju, Zhang Tingrui and Liang Yuandi, the magistrate of Ganquan County, were all dismissed and handed over to the Ministry of Justice to issue a crime."
"This is too early, is there any recent one?" Han Xiufeng asked subconsciously.
"Yes, there is one more." Wang Qianli looked up and held a copy of the mansion and said, "Yang Yizeng, the governor of Jiangnan River, followed the review of the officials of the prefectures and counties near Yangzhou, and seemed to be a vengeance with the bandits. I heard that the word "Shun" was posted on the doors of the Yangzhou area. The people's hearts were not firm, and they were all local mediocre officials. These unworthy officials, who were in violation of the corpse and salary, were all the wise men of the local government. I did not know whether the governor and governor knew whether they were ashamed. If you investigate as usual, Qu would cover up the saying of accumulating yin merits, and did not know that these people were not worthy of being cherished. If Qu protected him, then the person who did not let him go, how could he be angry? If he did this kind of thing, he would lose his benevolence, which was because of no yin merits..."
President Gu, who had just received the reward, felt that the emperor is the best emperor now. When he heard this, he clenched his fists and said with heartache: "Master Han, when he heard this sage, he knew that the emperor's heart was hurt by these greedy and fearful death, otherwise he would never say what I am ignorant of”!
Before Han Xiufeng could speak, he felt that Liu Liangju, but Minglun and Zhang Tingrui were better off early. After he died, Wang Qianli blurted out: "This group of people who are greedy for life and fear death are indestructible. It is impossible to kill! It is not tolerated if they don't kill!"
Han Xiufeng held back his smile and said, "Yes, it should be killed, and it should be clear that the punishment of the Zhengdian!"
