"Your Excellency!"

It turned out to be the scholar who sold paintings.

"You're Master Jiang."

There were a few people next to the scholar, their faces full of disbelief and surprise.

Jiang Yunfan nodded.

"Your Excellency!"

Several people shouted in unison.

The eater also stopped his chopsticks and watched.

"Who is this?"

"I don't know."

“……”

They asked each other, but they had never seen this adult.

When did an adult surnamed Jiang come to the city?

"My lord, we're going to join the army together." The scholar said.

"Join the army?" Jiang Yunfan glanced at a few people, "A few of you are going to join the army." ”

A few people looked weak and couldn't help it, and they didn't go for nothing.

"yes."

Several people nodded excitedly.

"What the adults said inspired us, why don't we go to the army and do a great job, so that we can keep our name behind us."

Li Junqing and Ji Yunmiao couldn't help but shake their heads as they looked at the weak bodies of several people.

"How?" Those people seemed to be greatly humiliated and said, "The two of you look down on us? ”

Both of them ignored them and ate by themselves.

You don't look at yourselves, and you don't fear being laughed at when you go.

Everyone who only reads the books of the sages, I'm afraid I haven't read a single calligraphy, and your stature, can you move a knife? Pull the moving bow? Is it fast? If you are captured, will you be able to bear it?

Several people looked even more angry, if they looked at Lord Jiang's face, they would have asked them for an explanation.

You can scold me, but you can't look down on us.

Why can't we protect our family and defend the country, can scholars only stand on top of the court and talk loudly?

Seeing their angry and aggrieved looks, Jiang Yunfan had no choice but to explain: "You have read sage books since you were a child, you have never read military books, you have never been on the battlefield, and you have not been trained, going to Liaodong is tantamount to death, I am saying, now there is no shortage of people in Liaodong, you still study hard, it is most appropriate to get famous, I think a few people are also rich and rich, it is a pity to join the army." ”

"What the adults said is better than a centurion than a scholar, is it just talking?"

If you want to learn what is written in this poem, you must also have the ability, don't you have any points in your heart? Look at you, even a few of you together may not be able to beat a cropper.

But he couldn't say it, so he had to say kindly: "You will die if you go, who will take care of the children in your family when you die?" ”

"I'm not afraid of death." Several people said firmly.

The scholar took out a white fan and opened it for everyone to see.

"Your Excellency won't forget the poem you just wrote, will you?"

"Grape wine glow-in-the-dark glass, if you want to drink the pipa, urge immediately.

Drunk and lying on the battlefield, how many people came back to fight in ancient times? ”

"Since I've decided to go, I didn't expect to come back."

Jiang Yunfan helped his forehead, this is not a battle to destroy the country and destroy the clan, there is really no need for them to be weak scholars-

Looking at the two of them, they looked at each other as if you could do it yourself.

Jiang Yunfan looked up and found that there were actually more people around them.

"You guys?"

Aren't these here to join in the fun?

"Are you really, Jiang Yunfan, Lord Jiang?"

"Yes." Jiang Yunfan nodded helplessly.

I knew that if I didn't tell the scholar my name, wouldn't it be asking for trouble for myself.

"Xiaomin has seen Master Jiang."

When they were confirmed, they were all excited, they were really lucky to be able to meet Master Jiang.

"Don't, don't kneel, I can't stand it, I can't stand it." Jiang Yunfan hurriedly stopped the few people who were about to kneel.

"My lord, I want to join the army too."

The man looked at the few people behind him and said with a smile.

These people seem to be a lot more suitable, and they are much bigger than these scholars, so it seems that it is no problem to fight two scholars at a time.

But now I can't say that you can, these scholars can't. I had to say: "Now the army is no longer recruiting." ”

But the man scratched his head and said, "But yesterday the prefect was still recruiting people, could it be that it was already full?" ”

Jiang Yunfan just wanted to answer, 'Yes, yes.' Seeing the sound of the books, especially the one selling paintings, his face was flushed, and he didn't care if he was an adult or not, and said angrily: "Could it be that adults also look down on a few of us and think that a few of us are useless?" Can you only read and write? ”

"No, no." Jiang Yunfan waved his hand, he would rather mess with villains than scholars, especially this kind of teenagers and twenties, everyone is not afraid of being stubborn, and if one is not good, he will dare to play a big game for you.

Anyway, he definitely couldn't stop it, so he took out a few taels of silver from his arms and handed them to them: "You guys go together, this is considered the cost of sending a few people." ”

"Master Xie." Those scholars were afraid that Jiang Yunfan would regret it, so they took it directly.

"I don't know how many names you have?"

"Li Jingtian

Tang Deye

Song Yuanqing

Guo Qingsheng

……”

reported his name one by one, and the scholar's name was actually Li Jingtian, which reminded him of Xianjian San.

"Be careful on the road."

"Master Xie."

After thanking a few people, they left happily, they were very happy, Lord Jiang personally recognized, it must be different when they went to the army, maybe they could become the personal guards of the lord.

Here, Li Junqing and Ji Yunmiao asked Jiang Yunfan in confusion, "You let them go to death?" ”

"yes, they can't even beat me."

"What else? If you don't let them go, they won't go? ”

"It's better to agree, and let those scholars be the logistics after I go, but the other ones look good, I'm going to ......"

"Received from your own men." Li Junqing glanced at him, "Do you want to receive it from the tax soldiers?" ”

"Hey, hey." Jiang Yunfan laughed twice, but he didn't expect to be seen by him.

He hasn't received any of them now. Those scholars and a few other people must not be very good at going to the battlefield, but it is still possible to be a tax collector, and those shops do not dare to go against the government.

"How many are you going to recruit?" Li Junqing asked.

"What kind of tax collector?" Ji Yunmiao had never heard of this name, could it be that it was a newly trained class of troops by the emperor?

"Tax-collectors." Jiang Yunfan explained to Ji Yunmiao and said to Li Junqing: "The capital will summon five hundred, and there will be a few in other places." ”

"Summoning five thousand?"

"I don't know, depending on the situation in various places, it's easy to get a few, and it's hard to get dozens."

This thing is not allowed, there are many big families in various places now, I don't know what they think, especially those princes and nobles, it is difficult to handle.

Not to mention the vassal king, there is no need to pay taxes at all, and the difficulty lies in those things that are secretly the assets of the vassal king.

A few people really can't handle it, maybe dozens of people can't do it, maybe he has to go out in person.

Tax reform is too hard.

It will take a while to become a complete system, and let them know that the people of the tax office cannot be messed with.

"Look at the way you look, and hard?"

Li Junqing and his father discussed this, but they both found it difficult to fully implement it.

"It's hard." Jiang Yunfan smiled bitterly and shook his head, he didn't think it would take several years, but if there was an accident, it would be even more difficult.

"Good luck." Li Junqing showed a rare smile.

Jiang Yunfan also laughed, "You laughed, aren't you angry?" ”

Li Junqing regained his cold face and glared at him angrily.

Jiang Yunfan smiled.

After eating, I went out of the restaurant.

The boss bowed his hand respectfully, and the people in the room didn't dare to make a sound, and it wasn't until Jiang Yunfan went out that they secretly let out a sigh and talked to Jiang Yunfan with each other.

Jiang Yunfan came out to find the post station and wrote an urgent report, asking General Xin to send someone to take those people in, and after he fell, he would deal with it.

It's time for the tax collector to come in.
