Lianghuai Metro was transferred to the Salt Transportation Office, commonly known as Lianghuai Salt Law Road. It was the yamen directly in charge of the salt administration of the court. It was a third-rank salt transport envoy, and it was under the jurisdiction of the deputy envoy, Tongzhi, Tongzong, and Experience. Each batch of inspection departments had ambassadors, Zuodian, Douqi, and other officials. The two deputy envoys lived in Yizheng and Huai'an respectively.

"Two masters..." A confidant from the Yanfadaoya ran in from the gate and rushed to the door of the flower hall with all his might. "Eunuch Liu divided his troops into two groups and went to the two north and south inspection departments to check the accounts..."

Yan Ming and Jaswen looked at each other and laughed at each other. Jaswen sneered: "There are many ways to calculate the accounts of the Censorship Inspection Department. How can Liu Zhiyuan and a eunuch?

"Yes, even though he could recognize a few words, if the private salt loopholes in the Censorship Department were so easy to investigate, Lin Ruhai would have been able to take office until his death? Hahaha..." Yan Ming was not worried at all. In their opinion, Liu Zhiyuan was not only a eunuch, but also a fool, but he relied on the prestige of the royal slave. If he really wanted to do things, would he have the means?

"However, the two aides of the Inspector Censor followed. I heard that they were borrowed by Eunuch Liu... These two are favored by the Inspector Censor Censor. The case files of each government office have been brushed by them on their behalf and handled in an orderly manner..."

"I'm sorry!" Yan Ming slammed the table and said, "Guan Chaosheng was once Lin Ruhai's aide. Regarding the familiarity of the salt farm, I'm afraid that he was not as good as him... This Jia Cong was really flawless! He was afraid of being impeached and overstealed, so he deliberately "sent people" to Liu Zhi far away... Originally, he was just an inspector and could not interfere with the Yan Fadao. Now that Eunuch Liu comes forward, what else can we do? Moreover, Liu Zhiyuan is the most competitive and narrow-minded. Jia Cong won over Shen Sanguan and had to donate 10 million. Liu Zhiyuan must be busy performing his merits..."

"Don't panic!" Jaswen sat firmly on Mount Tai and said leisurely: "I have checked the old accounts of the former Salt Censor's Office. Lin Ruhai was just doing things and gained the reputation of being promoted. At that time, major salt merchants relied on him. He did not know the old accounts of the salt farm and the review department. Guan Chaosheng and I were fellow villagers, so it was even more impossible to know... Besides, everyone understands that the accounts of the Salt Dharma Dao are not easy to check."

The informant retreated, and Jaswen's unshakable thunder made Yan Ming feel half assured. He thought that Jaswen is worthy of being the one whom he relied on. This kind of demeanor, the Hanlin Academy is not far away from becoming the leader of the Jiangzuo League.

"Jia Cong was injured and submitted a memorial to report his illness. And his name as an inspector cannot be involved in our affairs openly... Liu Zhiyuan, who has lost his assistance, will definitely not find out any tricks..." Jaswen smiled gracefully: "I heard that a generation of rivers and lakes outside the east of Yangzhou City are known as the Little Qinhuai, and the arts are fighting for beauty. Lord Yan and I have to celebrate and suppress the shock."

Many things in the Slender West Lake, the Little Qinhuai, the Little Jinshan, and Yangzhou seem to be radiated from other places. The prosperity of the southern capital Jinling is because the canal has brought about the romantic atmosphere of Yangzhou. The literati and officials are the most enjoyable group, and sometimes they are more comfortable than the emperor, so Yan Ming is naturally happy.

...

Yizheng is located in the southwest of Yangzhou, about the same parallel line as Guazhou. It is located on the north bank of the Yangtze River and has an artificial canal that reaches Ganquan directly throughout the journey.

The Yizheng Purification and Inspection Department is basically a branch of the Salt Administration Bureau. All the salt salts that go out from here must be inspected by the Purification and Inspection Department. If the salt tickets and salt indices do not comply with the regulations, the Purification and Inspection Department has the right to seize and file a crime, which is illegal smuggling.

The yamen of the Certification and Inspection Office is located at the canal port, covering an area of ​​10,000 square meters. Near the riverside is a archway, behind it is the official hall and the reading hall. On the north side are also ceremonial gates, inner houses, and gardens.

In the cargo hall of the Yizheng Purchase Inspection Department, the deputy envoy was busy laughing and serving tea. Liu Zhiyuan sat on the chair of the Grand Master next to the door with a smile, eager to make a contribution.

He was the general person in charge of the account check this time. In fact, it was Guan Chaosheng and Miaoyu. Liu Zhiyuan was really not clear about the details. What can Liu Zhiyuan think about this kind of high IQ matter? If he couldn't find it out, he felt that he had lost face. Therefore, Jia Cong was willing to "borrow someone" and he was really relieved. However, he was competitive and eager for quick success and instant benefits. Jia Cong had been praised, and he urgently needed a contribution.

The two staff members of Jia Cong checked the accounts together with some hired private account checkers. The sound of abacus in the hall was crackling and endless, as if the music was unremitting.

Behind the Nanmu Chang case on the west side, Miaoyu was holding a brush in her hand. Guan Chaosheng saw that her accounting method was very complicated. How much she came in and went out was all based on the same amount. If she checked an account, she would need two bills.

However, even if this accounting method is complicated, if you look closely, the loopholes are clear at a glance!

"This is... the double accounting method that Dongweng said? You are really smart and learned so quickly?" Guan Chaosheng looked at Miaoyu in surprise and slowly wrote at the end of the paper, "A certain year, month, a certain day, a certain canal ship actually lacks five quotations" and "a shortage of five votes"...

Miaoyu's expression also contained shock and said in a low voice: "At first, I didn't know whether it was useful or not. I didn't expect that after a try, many places could find loopholes. The methods of stealing leaks in the yamen of the yamen should not be underestimated, and the accounts have accumulated in mountains..."

"It seems that their private salt is scattered or intercepted official salt. Some places are just secret codes, but Dongweng has already made great efforts to do this..."

The double bookkeeping method is considered to be something like a steam engine that is historically driven, especially in business and economy. It originated in the West. The Western economy was able to catch up with the East. It has to be said that the double bookkeeping method has made great contributions.

Modern accounting in my country is still based on it. Jia Cong's method naturally exposes the ancient accounting loopholes!

Of course, the people who review the department are not stupid, and there are many private salts crossing the river. It is like a password that is difficult to crack or can't be said to be recorded at all.

Jia Cong's ultimate goal was to completely control the Lianghuai salt for the court, so that he could disperse his interests among the common people, and the court would also benefit. However, this was a long-term goal. At this time, the salt merchants were in great power and they did not have enough power. The salt ticket experience in the late Qing Dynasty still had various reasons for external impact. If he became the chief minister, it might be completely solved.

Most of the salt passing through Yizheng entered Jiangxi along the Yangtze River and some artificial canals. The accounts in just a few months were enough to drink a pot of Guan Chaosheng and Miaoyu. Therefore, Liu Zhiyuan was waiting for yawning and received the general account after several days.

"Salt tickets and salt entries do not match the number of ships. There are also records here in Jiujiang Chaoguan. Whether the salt tickets in the past or the salt entries now, they are more than 100 kilograms, and most of the canal ships are short of... Compared with the actual amount in Jiangxi, are those considered private salt? Hahaha... Finally, our family caught it..." Liu Zhiyuan took charge of his own intelligence. He had the Jinyiwei available, so he was not easy to get to go to Jiangxi to check.
