The gloomy man thought about it, and felt that this was not bad, at least more certain, so he no longer objected, and immediately did it, and the bearded man was not idle, sitting quietly, and he didn't know what Lu Dao was thinking, and it didn't take long for him to walk out.

The next day, there was a fight within the Cao Gang, a whole day of fighting, and at the end of the day, the bearded man sat on the throne of the gang leader amid the shouts of everyone.

The bearded man also knew that his current position was not stable, but he was not worried, as long as time passed, he would be able to sit firmly.

For these, the Wang family knows nothing, the Wang family is busy raising the fetus, and the affairs are completely thrown to Mama Rong and Wang Ya, and Wang Sheng, because of the child, people also seem to be high-spirited, and they are more confident in doing things, of course, the main thing is that there are fewer people to contain him, however, Wang Sheng does not dare to be careless when he exerts his hands and feet, because although some officials have been removed, but the deep-rooted families in Yangzhou City are still there, Wang Sheng still has to be careful.

Even so, for Wang Sheng, it is very satisfying, first of all, it is manifested in the tax, drastic reform, in addition to the above several taxes, there is one more, that is, the salt tax of Yangzhou City, Wang Sheng wants to reform.

It turned out that Wang Sheng still thought that he needed to fill a lot of silver taels for the deficit of the government in previous years, who knew that Lu Dao, the holy decree came, and all the officials copied the house, good guy, all the family property added up to all the deficits in previous years, however, those silver taels and the like, Wang Sheng can move, and what can't be moved is some calligraphy and painting, all of which were sent to the capital, and the silver tickets that Wang Sheng himself collected were all used to fill the deficit.

Wang Sheng believes that there will be another year. The accounts of the government should be able to fill in, in fact, there is no need for Wang Sheng to fill in, when the prefect was raided, it was purely the unlucky one who bumped into it, and it was not the emperor who found any evidence at all, so he didn't realize how much silver taels the Yangzhou prefect had short, as long as Wang Sheng came up with evidence, in fact, this account did not need Wang Sheng to fill in at all.

But. The emperor didn't realize it, but Wang Sheng thought that the emperor knew the situation, but there was no way, just let him solve such a thing. That's why Wang Sheng is so entangled. I didn't think about collecting evidence.

The rest is easy to say. At the very least, the government's treasury should be sufficient.

On the salt tax, Wang Sheng had a game with those officials last year, and although the final result of the game was not satisfactory, it was better, after all, Wang Sheng was newly appointed. Everyone couldn't feel Wang Sheng's pulse, so there was less to stretch inside, and the final result was that the salt tax had risen a little.

However, this year. Wang Sheng wants to adopt a new tax method, and when the time comes, the tax will definitely rise, and it will rise much more than according to the normal tax, and it can also prevent being deceived, that is, Wang Sheng has set up checkpoints in various places, and all transactions are counted in white bars.

A batch of white slips were specially made, stamped with official receipts, as long as you paid the tax, how much, then the white slips were written clearly, and when and at what moment were also written clearly, and there was also a supervision, each taxpayer, before getting the white strip, it would be read by the supervisor again, to see if it was right, and if it was logarithmic, then the taxpayer would print his handprint on it.

Not only that, Wang Sheng also completely controlled it from the source, directly sent people to the salt mine to guard, and recorded how much salt was produced every day, working in shifts day and night, so that he was not afraid that someone would smuggle and sell illicit salt.

Although Wang Sheng's move seems to be a bit of a waste of money and labor, several major families in Yangzhou City took this opportunity to suggest to Wang Sheng, but after Wang Sheng did not adopt, although he was dissatisfied, he did not dare to take action, everyone knew that Lu Dao was in the limelight at this time, if he was bumped into by Wang Sheng, then it was equivalent to hitting the hands of the emperor.

In addition to the salt tax, Wang Sheng carried out reforms, Wang Sheng also made reforms in other aspects, first of all, people's livelihood, don't look at Yangzhou City is so prosperous, there are many rich people, but there are more poor people, many people can't eat, can't sleep in a house that can really block the wind and rain, although it is a need for money, but, at the same time, Wang Sheng also has to build bridges and pave roads for some villages, establish schools, at least to establish a public school, so that some children have money to study.

Wang Sheng has no money, but Wang Ya gave Wang Sheng an idea, that is, to hold a charity party, when the donation will be written in the county chronicle, when the time comes, it will also be announced to the donors for everyone to hear, the county chronicle will be announced once a month, donations, also donate once a month, at the same time, a year, the cumulative donation of the most, and good conduct businessmen, Wang Sheng will try to write to the emperor, to the emperor to ask them for a good person and other titles.

For these rich people, the material has been satisfied, and the most desired is spiritual satisfaction, who doesn't want to be a great good person in the eyes of others, and can be famous for eternity? And maybe you can get a reward from the emperor, isn't this a matter of fame and fortune!

Therefore, there were a lot of donors, and the businessmen responded positively, and all the money for the things Wang Sheng wanted to do was all at once, and Wang Sheng assigned a special person to specialize, and the cost of each item should be written down.

Of course, Wang Sheng naturally did not do this in every village stupidly, but required the people under him to conduct strict audits on the construction of schools, paving roads, building bridges, and repairing houses for the poor, and provide relevant certificates to prevent people from abusing their power for personal gain, and they would also send people to supervise at that time.

The workers recruited for the construction of bridges and roads are all homeless people, as well as poor families, women can help with cooking, men are workers, and so on.

In addition, some people were also recruited to get up early every morning to clean the streets of Yangzhou City, and be sure to ensure that every official road is clean and tidy, and some frequently walked roads can also ensure basic cleanliness, and there can be no particularly conspicuous garbage. People are also encouraged not to litter household garbage, but to leave them at designated garbage sites.

In this way, the whole Yangzhou city has a new look, walking on the street, people feel that the street is much cleaner, speaking of Wang Sheng, no longer saying that he is afraid of the inside, are respectful to the new prefect.

In view of the lack of entertainment programs in ancient times, Wang Ya once had a whim, thinking that it would be better if Wang Sheng sent another play to these poor people?

Although Wang Sheng felt that there was no difference between more and less of this kind of thing, it was not easy to say anything when he saw Wang Ya so interested, on the contrary, he spoiled Wang Ya's ideas unconditionally.

Of course, this money is not from the government, but from the Wang family itself, Wang Sheng thought about it later, it is not bad, his wife is pregnant, and there is nothing to celebrate, so it should be regarded as praying for the blessing of the future child.

In fact, when there is a lack of material, he just can't take care of the spiritual pursuit, if there is a free spiritual pursuit, the people are still willing, so after Wang Sheng negotiated with a troupe and asked them to sing in some poor villages in Yangzhou City, when the money was sufficient, the troupe was also approved.

And the sensation caused by this troupe was something Wang Sheng never expected, Wang Sheng never thought that it was just a play, and he could make his popularity go to a higher height.

For Wang Sheng, it was also an unexpected surprise, and Wang Sheng's appeal in Yangzhou City has also reached a new level.

In terms of people's livelihood, in addition to these, the so-called food, clothing, housing and transportation, food and housing, Wang Sheng has done it, Wang Sheng also organized a team of experienced doctors, all of whom are poor, but have superb medical skills and rich in benevolence, these doctors usually treat some poor people, mostly upside down medicines, so it will cause poverty, and now, Wang Sheng pays to hire these people to hold free clinics in each village, and then, each county town will open a free clinic shop, and those who want to go to the free clinic shop for medical treatment must not be rich, and, It's not completely free, you can barter, otherwise, you have to hold the certificate issued by the village chief to be free of medicine.

Of course, most of the medicinal materials in the free clinic shop are inexpensive, such as Coptis chinensis, Panax notoginseng, which are not very valuable and common medicinal materials, some precious, if any, the amount is also very small, as the main thing must not be.

Even so, it has greatly alleviated the suffering of the poor people!

In the blink of an eye, it is another year, because many official positions have changed newcomers, so the assessment standards that Wang Sheng prepared to implement last year can only be implemented halfway, and Wang Sheng can only look forward to next year, his own set of assessment standards can show his strength!

Just when Wang Sheng was full of ambition and felt very energetic to be the prefect, there was a crisis in the capital, and Wang Sheng didn't know what to do.

After being silent for half a year, the eldest prince and the second prince finally got a news, at that time, most of the officials in Nanjiang were dismissed, which also led to the great prince and the second prince's vitality.

Therefore, the eldest prince and the second prince did not dare to commit crimes against the wind, and honestly thought about it behind closed doors in the palace according to what the emperor said, during this period, they have not figured it out, what is the matter, it is clear that Lin Shijie is dead, but where did the account books in the emperor's hands come from?

In other words, Lin Shijie is also capable enough, and the fish he caught is big enough, obviously the person who recorded the account book is the person who has participated from the beginning, and he is also a veteran. (To be continued......)
