Above the lobby, Gan Qi sat down again, and everyone had been waiting for a long time.

When Tu Qiu saw Pu Zhigao coming in with Gan Qi, he already had a conjecture in his heart, his face was shocked, and he looked up at Pu Zhigao, as if he still didn't believe it.

Gan Qi had just demolished Pu Zhigao's pagoda in the morning, and killed so many people in Pu Zhigao, at this time, Pu Zhigao didn't want to hide, how could he respectfully follow Gan Qi to the lobby?

Could it be that the witness that Gan Qi said is Pu Zhigao?

"The witness has arrived, come forward and answer." Ganch's startle rang out as well.

"Grass people Pu Zhigao, I have seen Zhizhou."

"This official asked you, have you ever sent money to Tu Qiu, the general judge of Quanzhou?" Gan Qi asked solemnly.

"Sent."

"How many have you sent?"

"Yuzhizhou, since the year before last, has sent as much as seventy or eighty thousand yuan every year."

"Why do you want to send it? What benefits did Tu Qiu give you? ”

"Yuzhi Prefecture is mainly convenient for entering the business tax."

"How, let's talk about it in detail."

"For example, when a shipload of goods is unloaded into the city for distribution, the tax collector at the gate of the city, under the explanation of Tu Tongju, will only collect seven or eight commercial taxes."

"A shipload of goods, only seven or eight commercial taxes?" Gan Qi asked again.

"That's the case, what the grass people said, every sentence is true, in this Quanzhou City, I don't know that the villain's family is so dotted, but anyone who has done a few trips of business is like this."

Gan Qi nodded, and asked again, "Tu Qiu, what else do you have to say?" ”

Tu Qiu's heart was already confused, but he replied: "There is no excuse for the crime you want to add!" ”

Gan Qi didn't bother to pay attention to Tu Qiu's words, but asked, "Has General Shi sent someone to report?" ”

"General Shi has already sent someone to report that Tu Qiu's family's wealth is seven or eight hundred thousand. Maybe more than a million, just wait for the time to count. ”

Gan Qi asked again: "Tu Qiu, you are from a poor family in Ezhou, and you have been an official for more than ten years, where did you get such a huge amount of money?" ”

Tu Qiu tilted his head: "I came here with more than ten years of frugality and financial management. ”

"Haha...... You don't eat or drink, more than ten years of money together, but only 10,000 yuan, but with the help of real estate and financial management, you have obtained nearly a million dollars, okay, just see if the Tokyo officials believe you or not, when the time comes, the family property will be confiscated, the family will be filled with men, and the female dependents will be sold, so it will be seen if you are still so hard. Gan Qi knew that Tu Qiu was a dead duck with a hard mouth, and he hadn't really thought about the consequences yet.

The old emperor was a benevolent man, and if an official made any mistake or a mistake in governance, he would be demoted and dismissed. But the old emperor has been poor all his life, and he will not be lenient for such a blatant petty official who embezzles and accepts bribes.

A seven-grade Shangzhou Yatong sentence can embezzle and accept bribes of nearly one million, it is too shocking, the old emperor has never encountered something for decades, even the original three envoys Zhang Fangping just spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to buy land. Such a petty official can be so greedy, I am afraid that he will refresh the old emperor's three views cognition.

The men of the family are filled with the army, and the female dependents are sold.

This sentence is a little scary, as the saying goes, the county order of the broken family, the prefect of the house. For Tu Qiu, all the men in the family have been recruited, and all the female dependents have been sold, what is the difference between this and destroying the door?

Tu Qiu was still a little unconvinced, and said: "Today's saint is the most benevolent, Gan Daojian, you don't want to deceive me!" ”

"The saint is benevolent, but if you fall into the hands of this official, the right to decide is here with this official, just wait for the official to see the crime file, and then see what the official convicts you of." Gan Qi is really ruthless, most of the reasons why Quanzhou will become Quanzhou in the future and become a colony is because these officials are corrupt and pervert the law.

Officials betraying the country, but not knowing it, is more dangerous than anyone else betraying the country. Today, Gan Qi is not having any personal enmity with Tu Qiu, but to make an example of the chickens and monkeys, and deter all the Quanzhou officials in the future. Otherwise, even if there is no Pu family, there will be other people in the future.

Gan Qi wants to let these outsiders who don't read the sages Hu Fan, they can only think about doing business, and resolutely can't let them have any big power in Quanzhou, they have to be honest.

"You...... Communiqué personal vendetta ...... "Tu Qiu is still making the last struggle.

"This official has no personal enmity with you. It's my Great Song Dynasty's Jiangshan Sheji, who has a deep hatred for you. Just wait for more than a month, and I will take you down. put Tu Qiu in prison and retired from the court. Gan Qi patted the wood again, got up and walked to the side of the scribe, picking up the trial record and looking through it for a moment.

Then asked Pu Zhigao to come over and sign the pledge, and Tu Qiu on one side had already been dragged down by several soldiers.

Outside the lobby, there were countless officials and officials watching, but they were silent.

After Pu Zhigao signed the pledge, Gan Qi said: "I still need some confessions as a supplement." ”

Pu Zhigao didn't understand anything, so he hurriedly bowed down: "The villain is going to persuade some fellow merchants to come to the yamen early tomorrow morning to make up the confession." ”

"Just tell the truth, don't exaggerate, and don't make things out of nothing." Ganchi confessed.

"Yes, yes!"

Gan Qi slowly walked out of the hall and spoke to the people outside the door: "You are all court officials, one parent, corruption and perversion of the law, you must not let it go, you must take Tuqiu as a lesson, self-denial and self-discipline, the court law must not be broken, and then there is a commercial tax reform, I hope you will work together to do a good job, and there will be a heavy reward at that time." ”

Everyone, you look at me, I look at it, and then they all bow: "Obey!" ”

"Let's disperse, I'll be on duty early tomorrow, and the official will give orders." Gan Qi waved his hand, after this incident, the yamen also knew that the young Zhizhou in front of him was not a person to be messed with, and he also knew who to listen to in the future.

When you want to deceive your superiors and subordinates, you must also weigh the consequences.

After today's work, Gan Qi returned to the study, holding his forehead, wanting to take a short rest, he was really tired this year.

Zhang Shuyuan and Chunxi served tea and poured water, waiting for Gan Qi to wash.

Maybe Gan Qi is too tired, and he enjoys this kind of service more and more, and even wiping his face is done by Zhang Shuyuan, but he himself is motionless.

Not long after, Gan Ba came to report: "Big brother, that Tu Qiu said that he wanted to see big brother again." ”

"What do you see me doing?" Ganchi asked, tired.

"He told me that he hoped that his eldest brother would open up the net, and he was willing to donate all the money in his family to the state government." Gan Ba replied.

"Hmph, donate to the state government? He wants to use this million yuan of money to buy me, you go back and answer him, it's too late, his family's property is already the state government's. Ganchi replied. I also knew that this Tu Qiu still didn't realize the seriousness of the consequences, and it seemed that he was still thinking about the face of his sentence in front of him, and he came to beg for mercy later.

"Big brother really teaches people to admire!" Gan Ba bowed respectfully, and then walked out.

Hearing Gan Ba's words of going out, Gan Qi was also stunned.

Are you really so admirable?

Gan Qi subconsciously examined himself, and asked himself some words.

Love money? Love.

Do you like to have fun? Like.

Is it breaking the law? Yes.

Is it ruthless? Yes.

Unscrupulous? Yes.

Doesn't Gan Ba know any of this? In fact, Gan Ba knows it all and sees it in his eyes. Why did Gan Ba say such a sentence at this time?

Maybe Gan Ba also knew that if Gan Qi wanted this million pieces of private wealth, in Quanzhou, he really only needed to nod his head, as if he was looking for something. Ganqi just didn't ask for it, so Ganqi is worthy of admiration.

Perhaps this also made Gan Ba feel more and more that following Gan Qi was doing the right thing.

Maybe this is also Ganba's persuasion of his own heart. Gan Ba seems to be ruthless and kills people like hemp, but for such a thing as killing people like hemp, except for people who are born perverted, who will not have entanglements in their hearts?

But as long as you believe that you are doing the right thing, then this kind of entanglement will no longer exist. Killing has also become a matter of course.

That's why Gan Ba said his last word.

Gan Qi thought through this and smiled slightly. Gan Ba will think so, Zhou Tong will think so, Shi Honglei will think so, Zhe Kexing will think so, and everyone around Gan Qi will think so.

A person's centeredness may often need to be maintained by grace and grace. But true loyalty, sometimes you need something else, and it's important to feel like you're doing the right thing.

Perhaps invisibly, it can be described in one word, that is, Gan Qi seems to have some personality charm.

This is particularly important to Shi Honglei and those military men who worked hard for Gan Qi.

Gan Qi learned a lot from Gan Ba's casual words.

To do big things, we need more people to sincerely follow and spill blood around them, in addition to common interests, we really need something to maintain this cohesion.

Gan Qi also understands what this cohesion is.

Early the next morning, Gan Qi began to arrange commercial tax work, the most basic is the import and export tariff issue, Quanzhou, the tax team should also be expanded.

Tariffs, to start at the dock. Export tariffs are also necessary in this era, because others are begging to buy goods from Quanzhou, so exports must be taxed. Tariffs on imports are also important.

The tax collectors at the city gate can be withdrawn, and the tax collectors and tax collectors can be stationed directly in the bay wharf, and even have to patrol the coast to avoid smuggling.

Trade is for the people, but it also for the country. Otherwise, trade will inevitably not last, and even the country will perish, so what trade is there to talk about?

In order to enrich the people, Gan Qi was even ready to investigate, and then the government imposed the purchase price of many goods, and those people who really pulled adobe and fired kilns to produce porcelain were the ones who really worked hardest and earned the least. Therefore, it makes sense to impose a purchase price, so as to fully protect the interests of those people who are really working hard.

Those maritime merchants are too profitable, although they also take risks, but their interests are too high, and the really good porcelain, when it comes to the Mediterranean, is gold. With such huge profits, it is also appropriate to distribute a little more of the profits to the people.

In fact, there is another purpose of official price control, that is, to prevent those merchants from passing on the pressure of commercial tax to the people, and using commercial tax as an excuse to lower the purchase price for the people. Because the people who are engaged in production at the grassroots level are actually disadvantaged above the commercial link.

In this era, there were no big factories, they were all small folk workshops, and even small workshops that were put together by a family or several households.

Ganqi, the governor of the state, does not do anything else every day, so he does these things.

Ganchi was busy.

The old emperor in Tokyo received the file submitted by the Imperial Historical Observatory, and was furious when he saw it, this time the old emperor was really shocked, and asked: "The general judgment of a small state on Fujian Road can really accumulate millions of family fortunes?" ”

Zhang Tangying, who submitted the file, replied: "Back to Your Majesty, Gan Yushi has always been upright, and said that at the end of the year, he would escort this money to Beijing together with the commercial tax, thinking that the imperial court would pay for it, and it must be true." ”

The old emperor was so angry that he was smoking, in his life, the private wealth of the inner treasury did not exceed tens of thousands, and even sometimes he had to borrow money to get by, a small general sentence from a poor family, he could accumulate millions of dollars in more than ten years, this kind of thing is not really just looking at it in front of him, others say it, he doesn't believe it.

I saw the old emperor exhaling and saying: "Gan Daojian will severely punish this guy, and punish him properly." ”

"Obey the order, the minister is going back to the official document." Zhang Tangying replied.

"Wait a minute, and attach another handwritten letter from me, which should be a good reward for Gan Daojian." The old emperor said again.

"Your Majesty, only an upright person like Gan Yushi can handle such a big case." Zhang Tangying is hinting at some truth.

The old emperor nodded: "If all the officials were like Gan Daojian, the world would have been ruled long ago." ”

The old emperor obviously understood the truth hinted by Zhang Tangying, millions of dollars, and the temptation that Gan Qi faced at that time can be imagined, but Gan Qi did not waver in the slightest.

Gan Qi didn't take the million yuan in exchange for a lot of intangible things. It's obviously worth it too.

The old emperor had already written a letter, and Zhang Tangying was waiting aside, and he was in a very good mood.

When the reply from the Imperial Historical Observatory arrived in Quanzhou, Ganqi's commercial tax had already been implemented, and the official price control had also begun to be promulgated.

As soon as the official price control came out, for the people of Quanzhou, Gan Qi really became the big man of the blue sky.

Even when they went out of the city gate, people came up to deliver tea, water, melons and fruits.

In ancient times, most people were thinking about how to build roads, bridges, and schools, and the stories of the ancient Qing officials were mostly stories of asking for the lives of the people and hearing the case clearly.

Ganch's administration is obviously a little different.

With a reply from the Tokyo Goshidai, Gan Qi began to dispose of Tu Qiu.

Tu Qiu, who was dressed in prison clothes, and all the men of the Tu family, were all shackled to their bodies and went to the northwest to fill the army in Yanzhou.

All the female dependents of the Tu family are sold directly on the street.

All the officials in Quanzhou, big and small, were all called to the scene by Gan Qi, and there were no more than one, and they all watched this scene with wide eyes.

Before the man filled the army, he said goodbye to the female dependents one by one, and the female dependents also cried on the sales stage.

All the officials watched from the sidelines.

Ganch, on the contrary, was not on the scene. but sat in the back.

Chunxi went out to buy early in the morning, and saw this tragic scene, and came back to listen to Zhang Shuyuan, and the words he said were how miserable they were......

Zhang Shuyuan waited for Gan Qi, and said on the side: "Official, I heard that Chunxi came back and said that the tragic situation of the Tu family on the street was so miserable that I couldn't bear to see it, I smelled sadness, and I cried when I saw it. ”

Zhang Shuyuan didn't have any ideas, just chatting.

Gan Qi asked, "Miserable?" ”

Chunxi on the side also nodded: "The slave family saw it with their own eyes, and it was miserable." ”

"I knew it was miserable, no, I knew I didn't look at it, it was uncomfortable to watch. Chunxi, you just learn a little, don't come forward to see this kind of thing in the future. Ganchi replied.

Chunxi and Zhang Shuyuan looked at each other, miserable, so they didn't go to see it? It seems that this statement makes a lot of sense.

Gan Qi saw the two of them looking at each other, and said again: "Being an official should always be a high-risk profession. Enjoying the treatment that ordinary people can't enjoy, someone is waiting when you go out, someone is waiting when you go home, there are people saluting everywhere, a family of old chickens and dogs ascending to heaven, and big and small things are decided in a word. With so many resources in one, the errand is not good, and the country sells it to him, so this should be the end. Is there such a thing in this world as a matter of taking benefits without taking risks? The more benefits you have, the more risks you should take. This is how being an official should be. ”

After speaking, Gan Qi stood up and said: "Since you have seen it all, you have to talk to all the officials in Quanzhou, such a vivid lesson, they should have some gains." ”
