Chapter 217: Changing Taxes

Over there, Xie Yuan, the king of Jin, was discussing things with his cronies, and the flying pigeon landed firmly on his shoulder, and he was a little surprised to see this familiar pigeon.

Usually nothing is important, and the pigeon will not be in sight.

The cronies were also stunned when they saw this sudden flying pigeon, and then recognized it, it turned out to be a letter from the county, and after a few people got acquainted, they waited seriously for their master to read the letter.

Xie Yuan quickly took out the letter and carefully read it, frowned after reading it, and then handed the letter to his cronies, who took the letter and read it in disbelief.

"I didn't expect the imperial brother to pretend to run to my territory to be the county magistrate, hmph, this is really a narrow road! It's amazing how much else I've done. Xie Yuan said coldly.

"This, this." One of them was speechless in amazement.

"Lord, this is a great opportunity, now he is in the county, and there are the prince's men and horses in that territory, just to get rid of him unconsciously, won't the prince be ...... then" The other person hurriedly made a plan.

The ambition in his heart was also exposed at this moment, although every sentence was for the sake of Xie Yuan, the king of Jin, but he didn't know that if he acted rashly, it would backfire.

Although Xie Yuan was ambitious, he was in a state of sanity, and he would not blindly follow other people's plans, and when he heard about this plan, he rejected it as soon as possible.

"This method is still a bit reckless, if something happens, not only will they not only be able to guarantee that we may also be implicated, but we will still think of other ways." Xie Yuan spoke.

He didn't want to be alarmed by this matter and ruin his plan.

What's more, how could such a smart person as Xie Junze be so easy to solve, since he had the courage to go to the county as if he was covering up, it was definitely not as simple as it seemed on the surface.

As he guessed, Huang Ling did not send someone to assassinate him, but it was a pity that every time he was robbed and killed in the middle of the road, he had nothing to do.

It made Huang Ling a little doubtful that there was a problem with the ability of the people he had cultivated.

There is still no problem after repeated temptations, and so far he has not thought of why, this has always been a difficult problem in Huang Ling's heart.

The man who made the plan fell silent when he heard this, and he knew in his heart that his suggestion was indeed not thoughtful,

But it's also the fastest and most straightforward way.

Although the price to pay will be a bit big, it is already the best opportunity, but it is a pity that his own prince is too cautious, the man sighed in his heart.

Huang Ling thought that today's incident, Chang Yu's minions were killed by Xie Junze's men, so he also wrote about it, and happened to be seen by one of his cronies.

"Lord, Huang Ling wrote in his letter that the emperor's subordinates killed someone, and this matter is afraid that it will be beneficial to the prince, so he may take this opportunity to get rid of his right-hand man." He laughed, holding the letter and trying to show him where he had seen.

It's a pity that King Jin is not interested in this matter, he is just a subordinate, even if he is removed, he will be the next one, which is still equivalent to a waste of effort.

"Okay, this matter is like this for the time being, I guess you are also tired and go back to rest!" King Jin stood up and spoke.

How could his cronies not know what their master meant, but they didn't want to say anything, so they had to quit and retire first.

Anyway, time went by, and those cronies believed that their masters would have a better way, so they were also relieved, and after the king of Jin watched his cronies leave, he immediately burned the letter.

In case someone with a heart goes out to make a fuss about this matter, and when the time comes, he can't explain it clearly.

The candle flame consumed the paper and dissolved into nothingness, and then he sat down in peace of mind, wrote a few words and handed them to the flying pigeon, and it went back the way it came.

After the people dealt with that matter, they found that the people were now living with too many taxes and some hardships, and many people had no extra silver taels at home after paying the taxes to control their lives.

The life of not having enough food and sleeping all year round, in this way, the people they rescued at that time did not take long for the good life to return to the difficult appearance.

How can they do this, they naturally will not let the people they have worked so hard to save continue to starve and suffer, not to mention that they have already understood the life of the people, how can they be indifferent.

Xie Junze went around to investigate the situation of the people, thinking about how to solve this problem.

After the tax, the lives of the people have completely changed, and the originally lively streets have become a lot deserted, and some relatively wealthy families have come out.

The rest stayed in the house, or else they were looking for an errand to support their families, and more often were people who had a bad harvest and had no one to support their families.

After he went back, he immediately told Jiang Baizhu about the matter, and it happened that he also wanted to ask her opinion.

She didn't react much when she heard about this, thinking that she had seen a lot of people like this when she left her family before, but no one told the emperor the news.

So much so that he stayed in the palace all day without knowing it, not to mention that the ministers presented some comfortable things and nothing about taxes, I am afraid that there are problems in this.

As a result, Xie Junze began to reflect that the news he received in the palace was completely different from the outside world, and he didn't know whether they didn't know it or deliberately concealed it.

"This matter is very simple, since this year's taxes are too high for the people, it is better to lower them, or to extract taxes from the people's harvest every year, so that the people will not be difficult to live after paying taxes."

She told her opinion, in fact, Jiang Baizhu wanted to inform the emperor about this very early on, but then she didn't have the opportunity to forget about it because she was very busy every day.

It just so happened that I learned about this matter today, so I can explain it.

"You mean to change the taxing practice to reduce co-compensation?" After hearing this, he felt that this method was feasible, and it was not inappropriate for the country, but it was also an excellent method for the people.

Jiang Baizhu nodded in agreement, he already had an idea in his heart and immediately let his subordinates handle this matter.

It took several days to get things done back and forth from the palace to the county, and he and she looked at the things in their hands and smiled slightly, and immediately asked the officials to announce this decree in front of the people.

When the people were gathered together, although they were a little confused, they believed in their hearts that it was not something that hurt them, not to mention that the people of the county government were already great favors to them, and no matter who everyone came to the place.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, there was no extra nonsense, and immediately read the contents of the decree aloud, and the people cheered when they heard it.

"Great, great, finally!"

"We want to thank the county government for being talented, thanks to him!"

"yes, yes, if it weren't for them, where would we have done such a good thing."

The people spoke excitedly, and knelt down gratefully to express their willingness to go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire for the county government from now on.
