Chapter 339: The Children of the Feather Forest Flying Cavalry (Fourth Shift)
Lantian County is a county in Jingzhao Prefecture, and Li Yi knew that a group of imperial relatives had been arranged to collect business taxes.
But how did it become a poll tax? Where are the hostile overseers?
"Luoyang is good, how is that tax collected?" Li Yi's expression was still calm.
"It is said that buying things and selling things are both businessmen, even if they are exchanged, they belong to businessmen, and they have to collect business taxes, and those who trade in business collect taxes.
We, the people, have no way to take every tax and count it according to the capitation.
I can't count how much I eat or how little I eat, so I can pay 500 yuan a year and pay five years first, so I have to take my grandson back to Zhengzhou. ”
The old man shook his head again as he explained how to collect the tax.
He is with his grandson and has to pay five taels at a time.
"Oh, yes, let's go to Luoyang first, I'll write you a note, and when you get there, ask where is the place to exchange grasshoppers for chicken and duck seedlings."
Li Yi said and went back to the car, came back after a while, handed the old man a line of text, and after opening it, there were a few pages inside, and his seal fell on the back.
"You're really an official." The old man had never seen such a thing, but he understood.
"Find a place to rest first, and when we leave early tomorrow morning, you can go again, bring you two quick roasted meat, or put it in the noodles and fry it as fried noodles."
Li Yi didn't answer the question of whether it was an official or not, the old man and his grandson walked on their feet, and this road took four or five days.
"You're a good officer." The old man said he was going to kneel.
"Oh my God, don't be my husband, it's all taught by His Majesty, and it should be good for the people." Li Yi continued to assist Li Longji.
When the game came back, and the wild vegetables and mushrooms were dug up, it was dark.
There is no need for Li Yi to look at wild vegetables and mushrooms, there are locals who know which ones can be eaten, and everyone picks out the poisonous ones together.
More than 20 followers joined in succession, making a total of 233 people.
They helped with the wild animals under the lantern light, and after half an hour, the smell wafted from the pot.
The people who had bowls took out their bowls, and the people who did not have them lent one part of the pot to the people.
One lantern after another was raised, the dark sentry consciously hid, and the bright sentry held a bow to be vigilant around.
All of a sudden, the people knew that this was an elite army, and the situation was still heavily guarded.
One hundred and fifty Yulin flying horsemen ate first, and after eating, they took over the sentry guards.
The others began to eat, and Li Yi also waited.
"Report, the scout team of five people has all returned, and there is nothing to do for ten miles."
"Report, five members of the second scout team have returned, and there is nothing to do for fifteen miles."
"Report, the scouts have returned four to five, and there is nothing to do for twenty miles."
"Report~~~"
The feather forest flew around on the scout, reporting back and forth.
The people were frightened when they were eating, this is His Majesty's private soldiers? In the vicinity of Bear's Ear Mountain on the border of Henan, he also went back and forth to investigate, reported every five miles, and went out twenty miles.
Light and dark sentinels, simple fortifications, scouts, are you sure you have not reached the border of the outer Tibetan land?
Thinking about it, they became more and more at ease.
With this unit, you can get a good night's sleep.
Li Yi pondered while eating, what is going on in Lantian County?
Is it that the royal relatives there have united with the people who oversaw them? Is it the people below who actually do things to take the opportunity to collect money?
Or is there someone deliberately spreading rumors and rumors? If so, it is clear that these people should belong to the people to be taxed.
Either way, the struggle begins, and taking benefits from others will really be backlashed.
What should I do? Drop by when you go back.
With a decision, Li Yi put his mind on eating.
Wild animals are obviously not food that ordinary people can easily obtain.
The taste of wild things...... There is no domestic goodness.
Especially for stewed soups, you need to put a lot of pepper noodles to suppress the fishy taste, mainly because you don't have time to soak in cold water.
However, Li Yi likes the texture and taste of wild vegetables, especially bracken, which is fried with meat in a large pot, and the taste is smooth after it comes out.
On the contrary, the people thought that the meat was delicious and that there were many prey, and the children grabbed the leg of an animal and gnawed it, rubbed their faces with oil, and raised their heads with smiles.
When everyone is full, they are not afraid of mosquito bites under the lantern, and they can't sleep and chat for a while.
Li Yi didn't accompany them, and went back to the car to copy the medical book.
"Your Majesty's private soldier, intimate."
"Yulin flying rides, listen to the name, it's not ordinary."
"Who is that boy? I heard that he was an official. ”
"Li Yi, the proprietor of Bashui Zhuangzi Li."
"What did he do?"
"Manure, green storage, wheat cutting artifact ......"
"Got it, didn't you say that the second zhang is tall, and his eyes are as big as a bowl."
"Is that still human? Now that I see it, I look delicate, and when I change into a woman's clothes, I must be like a girl. ”
"How can he have the protection of His Majesty's private army?"
"Listen to whom, he has a lot of powerful methods, military, how can he do it without protection."
"He's easy to talk to, not overbearing at all."
"What is there to be overbearing with us?"
As the people spoke, they became sleepy, and those who had nothing slept in their clothes.
Li Yi got out of the car, found Fan Fan, and gave an order.
Yulin Feiqi took the cloak and covered it with the people, and smeared the hands, faces, and feet with flower dew on the exposed places.
Some of the people were asleep, some were pretending to be asleep, and some got up and sat and watched, and their eyes were wet as they watched.
They remembered that there was an army that was His Majesty's private army, and its name was Yulin Flying Cavalry.
When the sun rises, the aroma of the broth is once again inhaled into the nose.
People got up one after another and were arranged to go to makeshift toilets to solve the problem.
Wash your hands and face and eat breakfast, very unaccustomed, usually two meals a day.
After eating, one person gave a paper bag of fried noodles, everyone waved goodbye, and the convoy set off towards Chang'an.
"When can I get to Lantian County?" Li Yi didn't know the distance, and there was a difference between the map and the reality.
"I can get to Lantian in four days, and then go for three days and enter Chang'an, your car is too big." Fan Fan gave the answer.
Without this car, I could go back to Chang'an directly in four days.
Li Yi's ambulance was long and wide, it was no problem at the edge of Chang'an City, and the road was also wide, but when he came out, he found that he was in the way.
"Don't force me, if you force me, I'll change to an off-road ambulance and drive by myself." Li Yi was also dissatisfied with the car.
If he drives an off-road ambulance, the official road from Luoyang to Chang'an, one day.
If he was at that time, four hours would be considered a long time, provided that there were no traffic jams and no speed limits.
"Proprietor, what is an off-road ambulance?" Fan Fan was more curious and wanted to know.
"It's a very fast car, it can run on its own, and a machine gun is set up on it, and you have five hundred riders, which is not enough for me to kill."
Li Yi said casually.
Fan Fan actually believed it, he nodded: "I knew that the proprietor had something powerful, what kind of organ can you use it for us?" ”
"No, you can only use it, so when you encounter enemies, stay with me, don't fight hard, hide behind me, I'll clean them up."
Li Yi refused, for you to use? How many lives are you going to kill me?
"The proprietor, you don't need to kill all of them, you kill some of them, they are afraid to run away, our cavalry will chase and kill, and everyone will share the credit." Fan Fan can still think of cooperating when he kills the enemy.
"Okay, if you have a chance, the credit will be given to you, I don't want it." Li Yishun said that he didn't think there was a chance to fight the enemy, so he stayed in Zhuangzi.
