The county commander and the county Cheng glanced at each other, and only after a long time did they say cautiously: "After the summer grain is harvested, it stands to reason that it will be taxed, and the court has an assessment for us, so I will come to you to ask for permission." ”

Gu Tianya nodded, and said cautiously: "Since ancient times, as long as there is a country, there must be taxes among the people, and this kind of thing will not be exempted because of disasters, unless it is the emperor himself, the taxes that should be levied will definitely be collected." There is a famine that can be relieved, but the tax policy cannot be forcibly changed, because this is the rule, and breaking the rules will cause great harm. ”

The two officials looked surprised and hurriedly asked, "Then did you agree to the tax?" ”

Gu Tianya nodded again, but he didn't agree directly, but continued the topic just now and said: "Taxation is a law, disaster relief, and a national policy, and the law cannot be changed, and the national policy must also ensure smooth travel, so the tax must be levied, even if it is to provide disaster relief to the people immediately after the levy, but the formality that should be taken must be taken, and Hebei Province must not do that kind of thing in a country within a country......"

As he spoke, he glanced at the two of them, and said meaningfully: "We are the Hebei Province of the Tang Dynasty, so naturally we have to abide by the laws of the Tang Dynasty, you say, don't you?" ”

The two officials nodded again and again, and each said: "Chief Gu Yi's words are profound, and he can solve our doubts with one word, so he will do what you say, and return the tax to the people after taxation." ”

Gu Tianya shook his head and reminded: "The local people in Wuyang County have not suffered from the disaster, so there is no reason to return the tax and grain collected, and the people who really need food are those displaced people who fled the famine. ”

The county magistrate was obviously stunned, and subconsciously said: "They are not the victims of the disaster in Wuyang County, and it is said that the court should allocate food relief." If we give it to us, I'm afraid we will be held accountable by the officials......"

"Yes, yes!" The county man couldn't help but speak, and cautiously put forward his opinion: "And the summer grain of our Wuyang County should belong to the people of Wuyang County." If you take it to the homeless, will it cause ......?"

"They're no longer outcasts! From now on, they will all be the people of Wuyang County. ”

Gu Tianya suddenly stood up and looked at the homeless people around the ridges, those homeless people dragged their families and watched from the edge of the fields under the scorching sun, their faces were full of longing, and their eyes were full of envy.

It was a desire to participate in labor, and it was an envy of harvesting summer grain.

Since ancient times, the people have not been afraid of tiredness.

They are eager to work and enjoy the joy of the harvest.

Because, that means being able to eat.

Gu Tianya slowly exhaled a breath, suddenly raised his hands and formed an arch, as if he wanted to hold hundreds of people in his arms, and said loudly: "From today on, these homeless people are all from Wuyang County, since they have become from Wuyang County, then they are eligible to participate in the summer harvest ......"

The two officials were shocked at first, then became dumbfounded, and blurted out: "There are tens of thousands of displaced people, and there is not so much land in Wuyang County. ”

Gu Tianya smiled slightly, and said lightly: "I will return 40,000 mu of land." ”

"That's not enough, 40,000 acres of land can only feed 4,000 people at most, and the gap is too big to be satisfied."

"Hehe, the Tan family still has 40,000 acres of land left......"

Hiss!

The two officials gasped.

The county commander looked around cautiously and asked in a low voice, "You mean to move the Tan family?" That's your apprentice's mother's family. ”

Gu Tianya's face was calm, and he said lightly: "In my eyes, I only see tens of thousands of homeless people who need to live, and there are only less than three hundred people in the entire Tan family. There are 300 of them, and 40,000 acres of land are equally divided, which is too fat and too wasteful. ”

"This, this ......"

"Don't worry, I'll make amends."

……

At this time, the county commander suddenly arched his hand, and said in a low voice: "Even if the entire Tan family is hollowed out, a total of 77,000 mu of land can only be made, because the Tan family also needs to live, and the three hundred people must leave them 3,000 mu of land, so one hundred mu per capita is the bottom line of the Tang Dynasty's land granting." ”

Gu Tianya nodded and said, "This matter is reasonable. ”

The county magistrate hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Even if you get 77,000 acres of land, it is still far from enough. With more than 10,000 displaced people right now, these lands are not enough to be granted, but you should know that there are still a steady stream of displaced people. So ......"

"So we have to find a way!"

Gu Tianya was obviously confident, suddenly raised his hand and pointed to the south, and said with a smile: "There is a group of people over there, who owe me affection, I cried twice in a row after I came to Wuyang, but it is not that they can fool them by taking their own sticks." They have to give me land to do, or don't blame me for turning my face and not recognizing people......"

The two officials were taken aback, and subconsciously said, "You are trying to grab land from the hands of Tiance Mansion." ”

Gu Tianya sighed twice, and said lightly: "Wuyang County borders Henan Road to the south, and at the same time borders Hedong Road to the west. ”

As he spoke, he looked at the two officials and asked with a smile: "How many acres of land can be cultivated in a barren hill that is ten miles wide?" ”

The county is a person who is proficient in government affairs, and after a little thought, he immediately replied, "There must be at least 300,000 mu, but the lack of water on the barren hills can only reclaim inferior fields." It's not even a dry field, it's only the worst of the worst fields."

"Inferior fields are also fields!"

Gu Tianya's eyes were scorching, and he said in a deep voice: "Although the yield of inferior fields is too poor, it can also survive when it is planted with food. It is only necessary to increase the number of acres when granting the land, and give three times the inferior land as a supplement. Three inferior equals one good, and the harvest is enough to eat. ”

The two officials became excited, but they were still worried in their hearts, and couldn't help but say: "Will such a silent occupation of the land of Henan Province cause the wrath of Tiance Mansion?" ”

Gu Tianya looked at the south from afar, and said word by word: "I'll take it personally, they're already sorry for me." ”

This was said very arrogantly, and the two officials obviously smacked their tongues.

But Gu Tianya no longer continued this matter, but suddenly smiled at the two of them, and said jokingly: "Congratulations to the two of you, sit on the ground and get promoted." ”

The two officials were stunned for a moment, then they each smiled bitterly, and said the same way: "I hope you can hold on, don't sell us." We once submitted a roll to the family, and only then did we get a recommendation to become officials, but unfortunately the family suddenly withdrew from Hebei Province, and we belonged to the abandoned petty officials, and now we are helpless and full of panic. ”

Gu Tianya smiled slightly, and said with deep meaning: "Then follow me, you should know that my daughter-in-law is Princess Pingyang." ”

The two officials glanced at each other, and both saw the determination in each other's eyes, and suddenly nodded together: "Hebei Province is the princess's fief, strictly speaking, we are indeed the princess's subordinate officials." So, we don't count as betraying the court......"

Gu Tianya laughed, stretched out his hand and patted the two of them on the shoulder, and encouraged them gently: "Congratulations to the two of you, you have been promoted on the spot." ”

He'd just said that once.

However, this second time is not a casual story.

He suddenly reached into his arms and took out two blank official position notices.

He stuffed the two notices directly into the hands of the two officials, and said with a smile: "Take it home and fill it out yourself......

OMG!

The two officials stood on the spot.

From ancient times to the present, unless it is a troubled era, the promotion of officials is extremely strict, how have you ever seen this kind of situation of filling in the official position by yourself?

Even in the chaotic times at the end of the Sui Dynasty, this kind of thing was almost non-existent.

Now, however, each of them has received an official complaint.

If you are blank, you can fill it in as you like.

The two officials looked at the official position notice blankly, and found that it had been stamped with a big seal, their pupils shrank sharply, and they subconsciously looked up at Gu Tianya, and said with a shocked face: "This is a fake seal?" ”

Gu Tianya smiled faintly, and said with a face full of indifference: "I carve it with a radish, I'm better at this." ”

The two officials trembled with fright, and said in fear: "Privately engrave the seal of the ministry and seal the official privately, this is a big crime to kill the head, how can the court be willing to take a break?" ”

Gu Tianya looked at the west with his hands, as if he wanted to look at Chang'an, which was far away in Guanzhong, and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, my daughter-in-law said it, she will write to my father-in-law to say it, and when the time comes, with my father-in-law's support, which official boss in the Tang Dynasty dares to come and ask the guilt......"

"Your father-in-law holding on?"

The two officials were stunned at first, and suddenly reacted to who Gu Tianya's father-in-law was, and when he was full of smiles, he said with joy: "Since you have Your Majesty's support, the radish carving seal can also work." ”

hurriedly and carefully put away the official position notice.

Gu Tianya suddenly raised his feet and walked, as if he was going to investigate the harvest of the people, the two officials thought about it for a while, and did not dare to follow his footsteps.
