correct

In the past, there was no Inspectorate, and in response to the tax reform proposed by Yang Kang, Xie Ce deliberately moved the original Xie Taifu's court out to be the Inspectorate's court. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

After Mrs. Xie passed away, the court where he originally handled the case was also abolished, and later, the bloody case of "Zhu Xie Dispute" was dripping, and Xie Fat, like their uncles and uncles, were all demoted to civilians, so the original big Xie family's house also became empty.

It turned out that the case-handling places of several uncles of the Xie family had become the public court used by Xie Ce himself.

It's just that Mrs. Xie's court is still there.

This time, just when I was going to use it, I directly cleaned it up and hung the words "Inspectorate" on the door to show my attention.

"Knock knock." The sound of clogs stepping on the ground sounded, Zhou Xingxing was wearing a navy blue shirt, the cuffs were rolled with silver wire, and the scarlet official uniform was embroidered with a silverfish bag, and his thin and thin body was a little more official.

He sat down, and a few minions followed, pouring him tea and smiling faces.

"Lord Yushi, today's file has been sent to Lord Yang's mansion." The minion said.

Zhou Xingxing nodded intently, didn't speak, just asked, "The noodle cooking master that the official wants you to find, can you do it?" ”

After Zhou Xingxing took office, he didn't ask his subordinates to buy gold, silver and jewelry for him, but only needed a noodle cooker who could make Yangchun noodles.

The subordinates didn't understand Zhou Xingxing's words, and thought that Zhou Xingxing wanted a top chef, so he said: "I have invited a first-class chef from Yuyang Building, and he is waiting in the living room." ”

"This official doesn't want a first-class cook. The official only needs to cook the noodle master. Zhou Xingxing was very angry, feeling that the subordinates in front of him were not doing their job effectively, "You go to settle the salary, and leave immediately." ”

The men were dumbfounded.

Zhou Xingxing added: "By the way, by the way, let the first-class chef you invited also leave." The official said that the official only needs a noodle cook. ”

The subordinate walked away in a huff.

Zhou Xingxing used the booklet on the table as a fan, shook it, and snorted coldly.

In the past few days, after his drastic measures, the tax policy has begun to be implemented.

Although it was opposed by many officials, it was still suppressed by Xie Ce.

Of course, those officials will oppose it, because the tax rates raised in this reform are all luxury goods, such as silk, wine, sheepskin, deer skin, deer antler velvet, and so on.

And the main audience of these luxury goods are the aristocracy, and those officials are not nobles.

Zhou Xingxing doesn't recognize people, but only Yang Kang alone, so the reform is very strong.

In just a few days, this policy has been implemented.

Next, it's a matter of execution.

You can see it in half a month.

Because half a month later, there will be a new round of tax collection.

In order to make these officials have no possibility of tax evasion, Yang Kang and Mu Feng also discussed, this time, they will take the lead and personally take the lead in tax inspection.

When a policy has just been implemented, it must be strong and forceful, striking while the iron is hot, so that it can be carried out more smoothly in the future.

If it fails at the beginning, then this policy can only end hastily. This is what Yang Kang does not want to see.

"This newcomer, although he doesn't know anything about the people in the officialdom, he just doesn't know anything, no matter how those officials hint at him or give him gifts, he doesn't accept it, he just does things honestly. What a rare talent. Mu Feng said, "However, I'm afraid that he has offended too many people, and it is not good to be plotted by others." ”

Yang Kang smiled: "At this point, you don't have to worry about him. Zhou Xingxing's martial arts are very high. No one can plot against him. It is good that his sword is not unsheathed, but if it is unsheathed, then the man before him will die. ”

When Mu Feng heard this, he was secretly taken aback, "There is such a person in this world." ”

"He's a very mysterious person." Yang Kang also nodded in agreement, "Although I don't know him very well, it doesn't mean that such a person will not be our friend." ”

Jinju.

After two days in the farmhouse, Yang Duanwu and Yang Zongyan, two brothers and sisters, were very enthusiastic and diligent.

The landlord was very busy with the autumn harvest, so the two siblings helped them to harvest rice, threshing rice, and planting rice.

The Dragon Boat Festival smells the strong fragrance of rice flowers, as if returning to Dafenjiao Village.

The landlord thanked the two siblings very much, so he said: "Listening to the accents of the two, it doesn't look like a local, dare to ask, why did you come to Jinju for?" ”

Yang Duanwu said: "I just want to ask, who in Jinju will raise silkworms." ”

"Silkworm farming?" The landlord said strangely: "The climate of Jinju is not suitable for raising silkworms." Presumably, there are really people who can raise silkworms, and they are all small businesses, and as for those sericulture masters, they must also go to other places to raise silkworms. ”

Yang Zongyan saw that the landlord also understood the climate of silkworm raising, so he said: "But here, there are quite a lot of silk cloth villages." ”

The landlord said: "Yes, there are still many officials and gentry in Jinju, and they like to wear good and fashionable clothes. Where seems to be we dressed so rustic. Therefore, there are more cloth villages. ”

This is the truth, here, although it is far away from the capital, there are many noble families, so the cloth business is very good.

"Since there is a cloth village, they must have a supply." Yang Duanwu said to Yang Zongyan, "I have asked, and many of the sources of cloth are purchased from other places. "If you buy it from other places, then the price of these silks will be more expensive when you sell them to the locals." Yang Zongyan sighed, "But the local rich and noble families are not afraid, after all, they have money." Unfortunately, our trail was broken. ”

"Not necessarily." Dragon Boat Festival shook his head.

After the landlord left, Yang Duanwu pulled Yang Zongyan into the room, and took out a white silk as fine as snow and smooth as water from the baggage.

Yang Zongyan took a look: "This white roll is light and thin, and it looks like a good donation." ”

Yang Duanwu said: "I bought it from the cloth village in Jinju. ”

"So, you must have spent a lot of money?" Yang Zongyan asked, "But it's not right, the silver in the burden is not less." ”

Yang Duanwu said: "Because this white silk is not expensive, the broken silver on my body is enough to buy one for him." ”

Yang Zongyan was shocked: "How is this possible? Such a good white silk, it stands to reason, is expensive. ”

Yang Duanwu said with a smile: "If it is made locally, the price is relatively low, and the price in Jinzhou is not very high compared to Jiangnan, and the locally made things are low." ”

"You mean, this white silk is not purchased from other places by Buzhuang? Unlike those silks, which are all restocked, so the price is high? "Yang Zongyan is simply a second monk who is confused, what does Yang Duanwu want to say.

Could it be that this white silk has some secrets?

The Dragon Boat Festival put away the white silk: "I've seen it, almost all the cloth houses in Jinzhou sell all kinds of silk silk. There are white, yellow, and red. The prices are very low, but the locals don't buy much. Because, they have all used it for ten years. The white silk is as ordinary as rice, and it can't attract them. ”

"Every cloth village has it?" Yang Zongyan was even more curious, "Then, there must be a local workshop that is personally making this white silk." ”

Yang Duanwu nodded: "Brother, you finally thought of this layer." ”

"But who is it?" Yang Zongyan still didn't understand.

"Brother, you often dye it, you should know which materials come from silk, which ones come from castor beans, and which ones come from animal hair."

"yes."

"Then you touch it, what kind of material is this white silk?" Yang Duanwu handed it to him.

Yang Zongyan touched it carefully, "This texture is definitely made of silk." ”

"Are you sure?" Dragon Boat Festival asked.

Yang Zongyan nodded: "I have to dye hundreds of such silk silks every day, and I can accurately judge whether this is silk or not by my feel." ”

"That's right." Yang Duanwu was overjoyed, "Then, I should be able to find Master Dzi." ”

Yang Zongyan walked outside the door, saw that no one was eavesdropping, and came back, "Dragon Boat Festival, what do you mean by this, I still can't hear it." ”

Yang Duanwu said: "There is only one kind of silkworm silk that can make such white silk." That's the castor silkworm. ”

"Castor silkworms?" Yang Zongyan repeated.

Yang Duanwu nodded and opened the window, "Brother, look outside, what kind of trees are they?" ”

At this time, Yang Zongyan took a closer look, and in the village, there were castor trees growing everywhere.

It turns out that a large area of Jinju is planted with castor trees.

"You're saying that the castor silkworms grew up eating these castor leaves?" Yang Zongyan gradually clarified his thoughts.

Yang Duanwu nodded, took a sip of water with a smile, and sat down, "The castor silkworm is the most vigorous silkworm in the silkworm species." As long as it is a castor leaf, the silkworm babies can live. Moreover, it only takes eleven days for the castor silkworm to spin silk as a cocoon from larvae. Moreover, the castor silkworm is not like the mulberry silkworm and can only survive in spring and summer. Castor silkworms can spin silk all year round. This is one of the silkworm seeds that we are going to raise with mulberry silkworms next. ”

Yang Zongyan suddenly realized: "However, there are not many people who know how to raise castor silkworms, and the people who raise castor silkworms in Jinzhou are very likely to be the master of Dzi, right?" ”

"Unless you want to make silk silk for a living, it is impossible for ordinary people to raise any castor silkworms to enjoy. And I asked those cloth villages, the purchase of these white silks, exactly ten years. Therefore, I estimate that Master Dzi fled to Jinju ten years ago, unwilling to help the Xie family, but also wanted to live, so he began to raise castor silkworms to make silk silk and sell them to those cloth houses at a low price. Yang Duanwu came to a conclusion.

"These silk silks are actually very exquisite, if the Dzi master sells them more expensive, I am afraid that some people will ask for them, but the Dzi master does not want to be discovered his whereabouts, so he sells them at such a low-key price. Moreover, his breeding method is good, and the castor leaves do not cost anything, and he can also reduce the cost to the point where he can make money. Yang Zongyan followed and analyzed.

Yang Duanwu smiled: "Big brother, you finally understand." ”

"With such a smart sister, I look stupid." Yang Zongyan shook his head and looked at Yang Duanwu dotingly.

"However, my brother keeps this secret in his heart and doesn't tell others, although we have found the castor silkworm, but until we find the master of the dzi bead, we can't leak any rumors." Yang Duanwu said.

"Got it. You clever ghost. Yang Zongyan agreed, "With you, the governor, in command, it is inevitable to find the master of the Dzi Bead." ”

This matter, the Dragon Boat Festival must be very cautious, although few people know that she left Qinghe County this time, but the force behind it is so strong that it is possible for them to find and follow her.

In case, she found Master Dzi, but Master Dzi was killed by the person she followed, which not only did she work in vain, but also harmed the innocent Dzi Master.

A day later, in the same room, the Dragon Boat Festival discussed with Yang Zongyan and said: "I deliberately went to Buzhuang today to pretend to buy goods, so that the second child of Buzhuang leaked his mouth, he said that the person who came to transport white silk every day lived in the cattle herding village in the west of Jinzhou. The cattle herding village is a very remote village, and I think it is very likely that Master Dzi lives there. Without further ado, I'll go and ask him out of the mountain tomorrow. ”

Yang Zongyan said: "Then what are you waiting for? Tell me, sister, what to prepare. ”

Yang Duanwu's black and white eyes flashed with a hint of vigilance, "It's nothing else, it's just that we can't take away the luggage here, we have to pretend that we didn't leave, and then, when the time comes, you take Master Tianzhu away." ”

Yang Zongyan didn't understand, "What about you?" ”

"I have my own ideas, brother, you must remember that no matter what happens, you must not turn back, just take Master Dzi back to Qinghe County." Yang Duanwu said, "Remember, no matter what happens!" ”

Yang Zongyan became a little nervous when he heard this: "Sister, tell me, is there any danger?" ”

"No, it won't." Yang Duanwu pretended to smile relaxedly, "Brother, you have to remember that our Yang family will not fall." ”

The Yang family will not fall, and these words gave Yang Zongyan a very firm strength.

"Okay, brother listens to you, but, sister, you are not allowed to hide it from me, you said it, you will not be in danger." Yang Zongyan said seriously.

In the evening, the Dragon Boat Festival personally cooked a sumptuous meal for the landlord.

Thinking that I would have to say goodbye to this tomorrow, and I couldn't even say goodbye, I was a little reluctant in my heart during the Dragon Boat Festival. (To be continued.) )
