The treasury envoy can only keep accounts and does not interfere with the flow of resources in the treasury. The purpose of treasury funds is mainly divided into two parts, one is to pay taxes to the Heavenly King's Mansion and the Evil Court, and the other is to maintain the daily expenses of the Promise Hall.
The daily expenses are mainly the salaries of the staff in the hall, plus the support of the guards. It is a big deal and the pressure is not small. Before coming here, Hu Sifeng knew that the Promise Hall was considered a fat job.
The treasury's turnover is definitely more than 100,000 yuan per year. If it works well, it shouldn't be a problem to lose five or six thousand Xuan Huang Jing every year. Of course, with a proper strategy, tens of thousands is not difficult.
Originally, tens of thousands of He Yi had been confiscated, and he was in a good mood, thinking of getting another sum from the treasury to pay back part of the bad debts from Yiwen Pavilion. Unexpectedly, once the treasury was opened, there would be only thirteen thousand left.
As far as he knows, the taxes that should be paid to the Heavenly King's Mansion and the Evil Court this year have not yet been paid.
The total of these two taxes amounts to 40,000, not to mention the need to maintain the daily expenses, and now there is only 13,000 Xuan Huang Jing left in the treasury, which is like digging out a huge hole.
He, Mr. Hu, worked so hard to get the position of the palace master, he wanted to make a fortune, not to take the blame for someone else.
At that time, when he saw the state of the treasury, he immediately became angry, and repeatedly asked the treasury envoy where the resources of the treasury went, and claimed that he would never accept such a treasury.
Kushi Wang Tingzan said calmly, "The palace lord has even accepted the seal letter, so if you say this now, aren't you afraid of being ridiculous?"
Hu Sifeng himself is used to being rampant. He never thought that there are people in this world who are more rampant than him, and this rampant person is still a mere official. Wang Tingzan said that he was so angry that he almost vomited blood. If Uncle Long was not present, he might really He chopped Wang Tingzan alive.
But getting angry can't change it, the fact of entering the pit, the palace lord received the letter, and this person sat down, now it is meaningless to talk about the disadvantages of the transfer of the treasury.
He could guess with his toes that it must be the slippery official Wang Tingzan who hollowed out the treasury of the Wuji Hall and left him a mess. As for who is behind these people, he is too lazy to investigate.
Hu Sifeng planned to suffer this boring loss, but he didn't want to suffer too much. He tried his best to calmly tell Wang Tingzan that he hoped that Wang Tingzan could return 20,000 yuan, and he accepted the rest of the accounts. Unexpectedly, Wang Tingzan rolled his eyes, as if looking at a dead person, and left without saying a word.
Today, the official letter from Huangdao Tianwang Mansion urging the payment of the royal tax was sent to the Wuji Hall, and it actually increased by 20% on the basis of last year's tax. Hu Sifeng finally broke out, and smashed the teacups in the hall.
Originally, it cost him a lot of money to grab the position of the Lord of the Promise Hall. He thought that he would recover blood quickly after taking the position. Unexpectedly, when he came up, he was hit on the head by the slippery officials of the Emperor's Dao Tianwang Mansion.
After losing his temper for a while, but never suppressing his anger, Hu Sifeng said angrily, "Come on, call me Suijie." He followed the waiter, shrinking his neck and retreating.
Uncle Long said, "What's the use of looking for him at this stall, it's better to calm down."
Hu Sifeng said in a cold voice, "Uncle Long, it's already a muddy pool, so let's muddy it up a bit. Sui Jun said that the surname Sui is the most troublesome. This time, I will bite him hard. This mess is rotten." It's all up to him."
Uncle Long didn't approve of Hu Sifeng's operation. He felt that he was a newcomer and he was the first to be stable. He couldn't listen to who Suijie was, but he had to see what Suijie did.
But right now, Hu Sifeng was obviously angry, he knew it would be useless to persuade him, so he simply shut up.
When Xu Yi arrived, Hu Sifeng immediately said, "Suijie, how did you become the deputy palace master? The treasury is in such a serious deficit. What do you have to say?"
On the way here, Xu Yi was still thinking about the reason why Hu Sifeng told him. Now that he understood, he was secretly happy.
He was still afraid that there would be no trouble, everything was as he expected, Jin Mang died suddenly, and the fat meat of the Wuji Palace, the people of the Heavenly King's Mansion did not let it go. Because of this speculation, after he was promoted to the deputy head of the Wuji Hall, he never asked about the treasury, nor asked the treasury envoy for a token.
Today, the thunder exploded, and he couldn't be more satisfied. If Hu Sifeng is allowed to live too peacefully, this person is the Lord of Zhengyin Palace, and he naturally has a great reputation. Now, with such a big commotion, the Wuji Hall immediately became a pan of hot oil, just as he wanted.
"Reporting to Hall Master, I really don't know about this matter. Before the Hall Master came, I temporarily presided over the affairs of the Wuji Hall, and the higher-ups refused to give me the seal letter of the Lord Zhengyin. I have no right to open the treasury. I know what's going on inside." Without reason, without getting angry, Xu Yi pushed Taiji, and it was clean.
Hu Sifeng said coldly, "I have the right to trust you, but the problem now is that the higher ups are pressing for taxes, and there is still a shortfall of nearly 50,000 yuan. You should find a way to make up for it. You bear the heavy responsibility of the deputy palace master. Don't think about it." As a mascot on one side, this matter will be handed over to you, if it cannot be done, you can go to King Xia to explain it yourself."
What good way can he have? He just thinks about suppressing one level and putting this black pot on Xu Yi's head.
Xu Yi cursed inwardly, with a panicked look on his face, "What's the meaning of the palace master? How can I, the deputy palace master, bear such a heavy burden? Please think again, the palace master."
Hu Sifeng waved his hand, "I've thought twice about it, it's most appropriate to leave this matter to you, but I still say, if it can't be done, I'm not good as the Hall Master, so don't be your Deputy Hall Master. "
Xu Yi's persuasive persuasion was fruitless, "That's it, the subordinates will take orders, but after all, there are tens of thousands of Xuanhuang Jing, if they are suppressed all at once, it will definitely cause turmoil. At that time, it will cause a backlash from below. I don't know what the palace master will say."
Hu Sifeng said coldly, "I will never do something that requires the horse to run and not eat grass. You can do it yourself. As long as you succeed, the sky will not fall."
Xu Yidao, "I would also like to ask the Palace Master to issue an official letter, so that my subordinates are justified. Of course, in the official letter, the Palace Master's promise that I will not be blamed for any trouble must be reflected. Otherwise, my subordinates would rather the Palace Master punish me now. , and categorically refuse to be displeased with both sides, and suffer from this splint.”
Uncle Long passed on his thoughts, "My lord, this dog is really cunning, don't trust it lightly, beware of deceit."
Hu Sifeng passed on his thoughts, "If there is fraud, so what. He is under my command, and I can crush him to death at any time. Let him do things for me first, and the rest will be discussed later."
He quickly signed the official letter and threw it to Xu Yi, who took it and checked it.
Hu Sifeng said in a cold voice, "I'll give you everything you want. If you can't do it, please come and see me."
Xu Yi answered in a deep voice, took his leave and left.
Huang Mei passed on his thoughts, "I advise you to take leave for the time being. Without you, the current Wuji Temple would have become a hot oil pan. You are still stirring in it, and it has already become a mountain of flames. If you don't jump up and down, I guess it's surnamed." Hu's Palace Master is not easy to be, isn't it good to stand on the sidelines and wait for his own defeat, why should he get involved."
