Daming: I Checked the Accounts at the County Government Office and Found Out the Cabinet

In the second year of Longqing, Huaixi County was directly controlled in the south. Chen Yan, a twenty-two-year-old poor student, is a thirty-five-year-old modern man in his body. He doesn't understand the history of the Ming Dynasty, and he doesn't know what will happen in any year. He only has the brain he has developed over many years of checking accounts, and the ability that Fan will never forget after seeing it with his own eyes. On the third day after borrowing it from the county government to copy the book, he found a small discrepancy. A few days later, I entered the reserve warehouse again - there were 2,960 dan in my account, and 860 dan in actual storage. There is a shortage of two thousand one hundred stones. Thirteen days later, Pancang came to the house. The county magistrate told him to shut up, but the old bookseller would only give him a few old books. The magistrate asked him, "Do you want fame or your life?" Chen Yan did not complain or escape. He went into the warehouse and hoarded the grain accounts and settled them; he passed the county magistrate and handed three pieces of paper to the county magistrate; he divided the responsibilities that no one was willing to bear and asked everyone to sign only their own part; the grain ship was seized by the neighboring county, and he dug out the receipts from the old accounts ten years ago and released the grain that day. Thirteen days later, the government sent a probe down to the warehouse, and he placed the grain loan receipt on top, still uncovered. That year, he was just a poor student who was borrowed from the county school to copy textbooks. Later, he went from the county to the government, from the government to the capital, from the granary to the land tax, from the money and grain to the officialdom. It wasn't until Hai Rui and Zhang Juzheng set off the trend of the times that he discovered that the methods he had worked out in a small county collided with what was being done in the world. And he finally understood: The most difficult thing to deal with is not that there are no rules, but that every rule is correct and everyone has a point, but things still get out of control step by step.
