"It's coming, it's coming!"

"Shopkeeper Wang, you have seen the world, can you show me what is written on it?"

"Which one? Didn't you tell everyone about it when you posted it? ”

"It's two sergeants on fast horses, and they left after sticking it, and we didn't dare to ask!"

"Let's see, is it a good thing or a bad thing?"

"Good thing! It's a good thing! ”

"What's the good thing? Don't be happy alone, tell us all! ”

"The notice said that there will be amnesty for the world, and from this year, the tax will continue to be exempted for three years!"

"Tax-free? Hasn't it always been tax-free? I said before that it might be exempted for five years, but why is it three years this time? ”

"I used to talk about it, when did I see the official notice, but this notice has the seal of the imperial court and the state capital, which shows that it is true that it is true that it is exempt from taxation for three years!"

"That's a great thing!"

"Why do I think it's a little unreliable, say it's exempt, it's exempt for three years, don't pay taxes, those who are officials don't eat, drink the northwest wind?"

"Yes, it's not that I haven't done it before, I said that it was tax reductions and exemptions, but in the end, it was a levy and a levy that changed the law, and I don't know how many times it has been increased, I don't think it's credible to exempt it for three years."

"What's not to believe in this, although I don't know the black and white letters, I always know the few big seals on it, can anyone still forge it?"

"No, why do you want amnesty for the world? It doesn't make sense! ”

"It says that the capital is going to be moved to Bianjing."

"Move the capital to Bianjing? In this way, doesn't the court ignore us? ”

"Good thing! Moving to Bianjing, we have the opportunity to visit the capital! ”

"Dream on you, Wu'an is thousands of miles away from Bianjing, how can you go?"

"No, it costs a lot of money to move the capital, not to mention moving from the south to Bianjing, shouldn't the imperial court add taxes?"

"Yes, the Jin Kingdom moved its capital twice before, but it was several times more taxed, and the Great Song Dynasty was really rich? Will you not have to pay taxes from now on? ”

"This notice not only talks about moving the capital, but also says other things."

"Shopkeeper Wang, what is written on it, you have made it clear once, this is not a delay!"

"Then tell everyone what is written on it?"

"Don't don't, I don't know a lot of big characters, the king's shopkeeper, please! You please! ”

The notice also said that after the Great Song Dynasty recovered the homeland in the north, the territory was too vast, the capital was located in Lin'an, so it could not manage the north, and the capital was located in Bianjing, but it could not manage the south, so there were two capitals, one in Bianjing and one in Lin'an. The emperor naturally wants to move back to the old capital of Bianjing, and Lin'an can't mediate without one, so after the emperor pleads again and again, the emperor who lives in Deshou Palace will take care of the Lin'an government again. ”

"Two capitals? What do you mean? ”

"The Emperor is in charge? After abdication, become emperor again? ”

"So the amnesty is because the Emperor Taishang has re-ascended the throne of the emperor, so he will be exempt from taxes for three years?"

"Is the Great Song Dynasty two emperors now? One to the south, one to the north? ”

"You don't care about his emperors, what does it have to do with the common people, as long as they really exempt us from paying taxes for three years."

"That's not right, a few emperors really have something to do with us, if the two emperors have a conflict, they fight, do we still have a safe life?"

"Didn't the notice say it, it was the emperor who repeatedly pleaded with the emperor today, and the emperor was able to retake care of the Lin'an government, and it was not to grab the throne, there are no big dramas you think."

"Two emperors, really won't fight?"

"If you want to fight early, the notices have been posted, what else to fight!"

"That means it's a sure thing that three years of tax exemption is a certainty?"

"The big seal is not all on it, it should be certain, I will go to the Daimyo's Mansion another day to find out the news."

"The Daimyo's Mansion is so far away, it will take many days to come and go, and now the road is not stable, so the shopkeeper Wang must pay attention to safety!"

"Why don't you go to the county office and ask?"

"Forget it, the sergeant who posted the notice rode straight to and fro, and he had never been to the county office at all, and they probably didn't know about the notice, so it was in vain to ask them."

"Okay, let's go back and spread the good news, so that everyone knows, lest the county government deceive us for not knowing and coming nonsense."

In the Taihang Mountains, a hundred miles northwest of Wu'an County, there is a large-scale cottage.

In the Jingkang Rebellion, after the fall of the north, it was built by the righteous army in Hebei and other places, and gathered 50,000 troops at the beginning, and when the north completely fell into the hands of the Jin State, the Great Song Dynasty withdrew to the south of the Huai River, and the righteous army saw that the Song army was hopeless, coupled with the blockade of the Jin army, the righteous army was scattered, and finally only more than 3,000 people remained.

After several decades of multiplication, the population gradually increased to six or seven thousand people.

A few years ago, the Jin State tore up the peace covenant, launched the war of southern invasion, the Song and Jin wars broke out again, the imperial court was rampant, the people outside the mountains were overwhelmed, they fled into the mountains to flee, a few years down, the number of cottages rose sharply, and now there are more than 30,000 people.

There are many copycats, which means that they have more say than other cottages, and at the same time, they also increase their ability to fight against the government.

In the past, when there were few people, the cottage had to pay a certain amount of taxes to the government every year, so that the government would not go into the mountains to find trouble for them, and the government would not make things difficult for them when they went out of the mountains and into the city.

Now the cottage is large-scale, just a county government, with only a few thousand, is not the opponent of the cottage at all, and does not dare to enter the mountain easily, so the taxes to be paid before will not be paid, and the people of the cottage enter the city, and the government can only be regarded as not seeing.

But as more and more people flee from the eastern mountains, the pressure on the cottage is also increasing, the land is limited, and the land that can be cultivated is even more limited, where can so many people be raised?

The word "righteousness" in the cottage is the head, but it can't help but take in these people who fled into the mountains, which really gives the owner of the village a headache, so that he can't even sleep well.

On this day, the owner of the village was thinking about the countermeasures for the resettlement of the new villagers, and suddenly heard the report from his subordinates, and the person who went to the mountain to inquire about the news returned, so he hurriedly called for questioning.

"Is there any news from outside the mountain?"

"There has been a lot of news outside the mountain recently, and it is also very messy....."

"Pick up the important ones first."

"The Great Song Dynasty is going to move the capital, and the capital will be moved to Bianjing. It is said that the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty has arrived in Bianjing, and the news of moving the capital is undoubted! ”

"Moving the capital, as expected, since the Song and Jin renegotiated peace, and the Jin State withdrew from Bianjing, I guessed that the Great Song Dynasty must move the capital back to Bianjing." The old village owner looked indifferent and disagreed.

"There is also news that the Great Song Dynasty did want to move the capital to Bianjing, but at the same time retained Lin'an, saying that the Great Song Dynasty has a vast territory and only one capital, which is not enough to govern the entire Great Song Dynasty. In addition, the former abdicated Emperor Zhao Gou has returned to Lin'an and granted amnesty to the world and exempted from taxes for three years. ”

"Zhao Gou's governance? Is he re-emperor? Where is the new emperor? Hearing the news, the owner of the village was shocked.

"It is said that the new emperor is in Bianjing, and he is in charge of the northern government in Bianjing."

"What is this? Separation? Or did Zhao Gou drive out the new emperor? "Zhaiism is full of indignation and grievances.

"I don't know, it is said that it was the new emperor who pleaded again and again, and Zhao Gou came out to reorganize the government."

"Nonsense! Zhao Gou is at a loss, so he wants to use amnesty to the world and exempt taxes for three years to save the hearts of the people, who can't see through this trick? "Obviously, the owner of the village has a deep understanding of Zhao Zheng.

"What else is there to say?"

"On the front line of the Daimyo's Mansion and the Zhending Mansion, the Song and Jin armies are now tense, and there is a possibility that a big war will break out again."

"This is expected, the battle of the Northern Expedition of the Great Song Dynasty is far from over, the Daimyo's Mansion is just an outpost, Zhending Mansion will be recaptured, Yanjing will also be taken, and the same is true for Taiyuan Mansion and Yunzhong." Speaking of this, the slightly excited mood of the owner of the village gradually calmed down.

"Also, several elites of the Song army of the Daimyo Mansion have been transferred to the direction of Bianjing, and if it really starts, the Song army will probably suffer."

"The elite of the Daimyo Mansion was transferred to Bianjing, which proves my judgment, Zhao Gou is really not authentic, and I am afraid that there are a lot of hidden secrets." The owner of the village couldn't help but take a picture of the coffee table.

Then he asked, "Is there a serious famine outside the mountains?" ”

"That's okay, the government has food relief, although there is not enough to eat, not many people will starve to death. After many investigations, all the places where the Song army went were exempted from taxes, and the ownerless wasteland could be reclaimed at will, which was not a lie. At the same time, there is also news that from now on, no matter whose land exceeds 10 mu and is not planted for three consecutive years, the government will confiscate it and distribute it to the landless people for cultivation. ”

"Okay, good, the new emperor is still more sympathetic to the poor people than Zhao Gou, as long as the people have land to plant, they will have food to eat, there will be food to eat, the world will be stable, and the people's livelihood will be restored, and it won't take a few years for the Jin people to obediently go back to the deep mountains and old forests in the north." The owner of the village was relieved.

After a while, he said, "What else is the news?" Is there any news from Gangnam? ”

"I haven't been to the south of the Yellow River, and there is no news there for the time being."

"Okay, continue to send people to keep an eye on it, if there is any news, report it quickly."

"Yes, Lord."

After his subordinates left, the owner of the village got up and paced, worried.

After thinking for a while, he suddenly instructed the attendants on the side: "Go and ask Sect Leader Song to come and say that I have something to discuss with him." ”

Half an hour later, a man in the prime of life about fifty years old walked into the living room door.

The owner of the village got up to greet him and said with a smile: "Song Jiaotou, how are you doing lately?" ”

Song Jiaotou said with a smile: "Thank you for the hospitality, the food and drink in the mountains are delicious, Song doesn't want to leave!" ”

"Hahaha, as long as the head of the Song sect is satisfied. Sit, it's freshly picked tea, taste it! ”

The two of them sat left and right, holding a cup of tea.

"Well, that's good! This tea in Taihang Mountain is no worse than that in Dabie Mountain! ”

"Yes, the old man has never drunk the tea in Dabie Mountain, and he will definitely try it if he has the opportunity!"

"What chance is not a chance, the owner of the village wants to drink tea in Dabie Mountain, you can go at any time, as long as the owner of the village is willing to go down the mountain, the horse will arrive in ten days."

"Hearing you say that, the old man really wants to try it himself."

"Is this true?" Song Jiaotou's hand holding the teacup paused slightly, and the expression on his face suddenly became serious.

"There's a piece of news, I wonder if the sect leader knows?"

"Oh, what's the news?"
