Chapter 205: Ore Veins

"You recognized Du Jing as your master?" Bai Siwei exclaimed with a shocked expression.

After Han Zeyun imprisoned Nalang Yuyan and Yao Bao together, he said: "I just obey what he said, don't you often say that you don't have to cultivate to a high level ......in order to become a master?

Bai Siwei turned his head to look at Du Jing, gritted his teeth and said viciously: "Okay, you Du Jing, you actually robbed people with me!"

"No, what a robbery, everyone's purpose is the same, don't say it's so utilitarian!" Du Jing said with a smile.

Bai Siwei sighed helplessly, and said, "What are you going to do next?"

Du Jing smiled, poured himself a cup of tea, drank two cups, he was really tired after a busy day, so he said: "I'll stay with you tonight, and I'll talk about it tomorrow." ”

Ke Bai Siwei was a little anxious, snatched the teapot from Du Jing's hand, and didn't let him drink the third cup.

"It's better not to put it off until tomorrow. ”

Du Jing chuckled, snatched the teapot from Bai Siwei's hand, poured himself a cup nonchalantly and said: "You know that you are in a hurry now? What did you do some time ago? I just heard from the emperor that you arrived in Taiping County first, I thought you would show your strength, but you didn't do anything, it really disappointed me." ”

Bai Siwei sighed helplessly and said: "The situation in Taiping County is complicated, I just came more than a month earlier than you, what foundation can I lay? ”

After that, Bai Siwei handed Du Jing a booklet, which was densely filled with the information of various sects and families in Taiping County.

Du Jing hurriedly flipped through a few pages and asked, "The patriarch of the head of the sect here, will he come tomorrow?"

Han Zeyun said: "That old bustard knows everyone from all walks of life, and if she goes to inform her, she will definitely be informed." ”

"But whether people come or not is another matter, some sects are very awesome, and they may not necessarily buy the face of the Han family. ”

Hearing Bai Siwei say this, Han Zeyun immediately stood up and pulled out his broadsword and shouted: "Who? Whoever dares not come, Lao Tzu will be the first to get him!"

Du Jing grabbed Han Zeyun and said, "If you can't get anything, tomorrow will be the first to show up and tell you about the planning of Taiping City in the future, if they don't come, they are unwilling to participate in the planning of the city, and they will regret it in the future." ”

As if thinking of something, Du Jing said to Bai Siwei again: "You are looking for a few civilians who are quite influential among the civilians, and you need a few from all walks of life, and the number of people cannot be less than that of monks. ”

Bai Siwei first agreed, and then frowned and asked puzzledly: "What kind of medicine are you selling in this gourd?"

"You'll know when the time comes, okay, let's go to rest, I've been running for more than ten days, and I'm really tired. ”

As he spoke, Du Jing yawned and walked to the guest room that Bai Siwei had arranged for him.

Tomorrow, just tomorrow, he's going to fight a tough battle!

Winning or losing this battle is related to whether or not he can implement the legal system in every corner of Taiping County.

Du Jing is full of confidence in himself.

As for the two suspects, Du Jing planned to use them to make an example tomorrow.

After planning everything, Du Jing fell asleep deeply.

He was asleep, but many people in Taiping City couldn't sleep, not to mention those sect families who had received a notice to go to the banquet, just take Liu Huanqi, the county prince, for example, he and Ji Dong couldn't sleep peacefully.

"This Du Jing was able to convince Han Zeyun to worship him as a teacher, is it just because he solved the case?"

In the face of Ji Dong's inquiry, Liu Huanqi shook his head and said: "But I heard that the people in Yichun Tower said that it was indeed like this, after they caught that woman, they said something for a long time and announced that they were going to give Du Jing the wind, what is the magic of this Du Jing?"

Ji Dong naturally didn't know, but just sighed and said, "He called all the sects over this time, isn't it really for this year's spirit stone tax?"

"The Eight Achievements are coming for the spirit stone tax, as long as we can suppress this Du Jing tomorrow, let him take care of himself, he won't care about other things. ”

The two discussed this matter in front of the lamp, and after chatting for a long time, Ji Dong sighed: "I really didn't expect that this Du Jing could really catch this guy who committed crimes in so many places, it seems that he really has two brushes!

Liu Huanqi said: "Don't worry, I've arranged it!"

Early the next morning, Bai Siwei woke Du Jing up from his sleep.

"Don't sleep, get up and get something to eat!"

Du Jing rubbed his sleepy eyes, got up from the bed and said, "Let Yao Bao and Lang Yuyan eat some first, people are just suspects, and they can't abuse others." ”

"Got it, you have a lot of heart!"

During the meal, Du Jing suddenly said: "I read your booklet last night, you said that Taiping County pays nearly one million lower grade spirit stones in taxes every year, what is going on, or I don't quite understand the tax." ”

Bai Siwei smiled, he really knew something about this, so he explained it to Du Jing.

Originally, the so-called tax payment was the tax paid within the control of the Zhao family of the emperor, which was generally paid to the state capital level by a county, and if a place was controlled by the royal family, then the tax should be paid to the royal family.

This is the reason why Du Jing said that the taxes in Taiping County should be paid to Zhao Sisi.

But what Du Jing didn't understand was mainly that how could the tax be a spirit stone, and there would be so much.

After Bai Siwei's explanation, Du Jing knew that all these spirit stones came from the mountains and rivers.

The Lingshi vein is controlled by the county yamen and handed over to various family sects for mining, and the mining sect can intercept a part of it, and hand over the rest to the county yamen for unified control.

This control is distributed according to the contribution of each sect family to the county, but now it is basically in name only.

This means that now it is not distributed to other sect families at all, but the ore veins are mined in turn, and the rest is handed over to the state capital, and then the state capital is handed over to the imperial city. ”

Bai Siwei nodded, and this is indeed the way things are.

Only then did Du Jing know that the country was completely rotten, and even the most basic tax revenue could not operate normally, so who else could be of the same heart and mind as the country?

It seems that the first thing he has to do is to grasp all the spirit stone veins in his own hands!

Only when you have money can you do things! Only by taking money into your own hands can others bow down to your orders.
