There is no love for no reason, no hate for no reason, and no high-priced food and hugs for no reason. Although I deeply know that there is no such thing as a free lunch, and that there is a price for every dollar that others give, I honestly feel good about being offered highly. After the meeting ended that day, I took everyone to hold an on-site demonstration and observation meeting in Zichuan County, Jinan Prefecture, and after a half-month period and asked all prefectures and counties to conduct a self-examination according to this law, I was offered by Governor Yang Ben'an and the prefect of Jinan Prefecture. Now the daily work is: eating, sleeping, walking, listening to reports, drinking, bragging, and shirking the entanglement of maids.

The rest is fine, but this last one is a bit scratching. These two high-profile maids look like they have been on the battlefield for a long time, and they can be flirtatious and charming, which makes it difficult for people to parry. For example, every time before going to bed, I said many times, there is no need to wait, the two of them don't listen, they don't leave when they come in, hum and chirp, hook their shoulders and put their arms around their necks, lick their lips and blink their eyes, what kind of weird look is this? What do you want to give me a red envelope and so on, I'm sorry I'm very simple, I don't understand what you're talking about, okay!

Actually, I'm not a woman who doesn't get close to Megumi Yanagishita, but these two are veteran fighters at first glance, and I don't want to be one of the talking points that they talk about in a few years.

Later, I let the only person around me, Ye Buregret, act as my door god, and let him live in the room next door to me. After a few days like this, the two of them saw that I was really not interested, and their actions became formal.

However, by chance, I heard the two of them gossip with other maids in private, and actually said that I might be a rabbit...... Rabbit! You're the rabbit! Your whole family is rabbits! But this misunderstanding, let them misunderstand, I still don't want to explain it.

But it turns out that I'm really too simple, too simple, too simple! Two days after I said goodbye to the entanglement of the maid, it was actually two handsome little brothers who came to serve on this day...... Oh, the two girls are sick, and you two will take their place...... Well, let's take it for now, but can you put the orchid finger away? Say you're still laughing! Still TMD covers Hulu?! I bought a watch last year! You two sissies! Get the hell out of here!

I sat on the head of the bed in anger and gasped, but I didn't have a good opinion on the matter. What do you say? Let's let the two girls come back, right? That's it! The next day, the two girls did come back, and they were really more polite to me, but I always felt that the way they looked at me seemed to be ...... It always seems to be sympathetic...... Wait a minute! Stop, what are you sympathizing with? It's nothing? What's nothing? Hold it! What's that! Don't go away from you! Ay! Ay!

In this way, I seem to have left a "no" reputation in the Shandong Political Division. This name doesn't seem to be very famous, but I still don't prove it, that's it, forget it, there are always too many grievances in life to bear!

Time flies, and it is ten days in a flash. That night, I was practicing knife skills in the house, and suddenly I heard a few "squeaks" outside the window, so I put away the shadow show, pushed open the back window, and three figures suddenly rushed in, it was the nine ghosts Zhengxiao, Kite and Mo.

After the three of them saluted me, the Nine Ghosts Zhengxiao spoke: "Sir, we have carefully investigated the matter you explained, and there have been some results!" ”

I motioned for them to sit down, and the three of them thanked each other, and Mo said, "In the past two months, we have recruited five more reliable ninjas from Fusang, but have lost their master's family, and Miss Murong Qin has also recruited three young backbones from the family, which has greatly enriched our intelligence team. Recently, I have arranged all the manpower in Shandong, and according to my husband's arrangement, I have tracked the progress of land clearance in ten key prefectures and counties. Specifically, we have drawn a graphic, please look at it! ”

I nodded and smiled and took the book, opened it and took a closer look, and sure enough, the progress was mixed. The three counties of Yanggu, Shouguang, and Changyi, which have the best progress, were all unattended when they greeted me, and it seems that they do have the bottom in their hearts. The worst counties of Qufu, Jiaozhou, and Linzi are the most active, and those two sissies seem to have been sent by Linzi! Whoa! Is it tolerable or unbearable! I will definitely investigate Linzi strictly! As for the other states and counties, the overall progress is similar, but there is a trend, that is, the poorer the counties are doing better, and the richer counties are less concerned, which is also in line with the law.

The Nine Ghosts continued: "Sir, there are also new trends on Shu and Lan's side. Your relatives have all gone to sea and arrived at the port of Malacca, and with the help of the two chambers of commerce of Ito and Kondo, a trading point has been registered and opened in the port of Malacca, co-chaired by Mr. Yan and Mr. Yip, and the local forces have not expressed rejection, it should be said that the trade route has been established. The first batch of Dongying bones, sake and Yangzhou embroidery are selling very well in Malacca, and the spices we shipped back from the ports near Malacca are also selling well in Quanzhou, Hangzhou, Hizen and more! I believe that in the near future, you will be able to do what you expect, replace tributary trade with overseas trade! ”

That's what I'm most concerned about! Now I have Qi Jiguang and Zhang Juzheng behind me, and the coastal customs defense naturally dare not say much, but next year, when Zhang Juzheng's deadline arrives, Qi Jiguang will be demoted to Guangdong, and he will lose his biggest backer, and our trade in the Ming Dynasty will definitely not be able to continue! People have no long-term concerns, there must be near-term worries, and it is imperative to find this back road as soon as possible!

I nodded and said, "Well done!" Next, it is necessary to secure the trade routes in Hizen, Naha, Ceylon, Brunei, Malacca and even Jakarta. Most Indians (Southeast Asians) are not trustworthy, so we must unite the local Chinese and Fusang forces, strengthen protection, and don't capsize in the gutter! In addition, at the right time, we want to gradually get rid of the two Fusang chambers of commerce and play their own signboards, of course, this matter is not in a hurry, but Xu Tuzhi. ”

The nine ghosts are filial piety, and there is no need to say more about this matter. In the area of overseas trade, there are nine ghosts and political filial piety in charge of the overall situation, and they are proficient in commerce and trade, and Lan and Chen Kui manage the fleet, so it shouldn't be a big problem, so I can let go and do what I want to do in the Ming Dynasty. This time, my heart is greatly settled, I can attack and retreat, and it is really excellent.

After talking about other people's affairs, when the kite spoke, I looked at her with a smile, this girl has lost weight again! She looked at me and laughed first, but didn't speak. I said with a black line, "What are you laughing at?" Who knew that she laughed even more, and actually fell on the table, in order not to make a sound, laughing and sobbing! The nine ghosts next to him, Zhengxiao and Mo, also held back their laughter, and their faces turned red! I was so angry that I lowered my voice and yelled, "You stupid woman, what are you laughing at? Say! You two say, what are you laughing at! ”

The kite raised her head, glanced at me, wiped the tears from her laughter, let out a long sigh of relief, cleared her throat, and said, "Sir, I am very sad to hear that you are no longer good!" After saying that, he smiled and leaned back and closed! The two of them also turned their heads and laughed endlessly!

Me: "......". The kite laughed for a while, held back, looked at me and smiled: "Sir, don't care about this, I just know if you can do it, I have more important things to report!"

I couldn't help but be depressed and said, "Say it!"

Kite Zhengse said: "Mr. asked me to check the two Yangwu Marquis Xue Bian and Yan Shenggong Kong Shangxian, I have recently observed in detail. Although Kong Shangxian has a lot of complaints, he is not very resistant to measurement, and the land of Qingzhang is also implemented. But this is not the case with Xue Bian, the Marquis of Yangwu, who relied on the iron scroll and golden book to protect himself, beat the local officials, refused to allow the commissioner of Qingzhang to enter, and threatened that whoever dares to go again will be dealt with as a private trespasser, regardless of life and death! ”

I laughed and said, "I appreciate the phrase life and death the most!" What a wonderful person! ”

Kite also smiled: "Isn't it? ”

I muttered, "Yan Shenggong Kong Shangxian is the sixty-fourth grandson of Kong Shengren, and he has a large number of clan tenants in Qufu. The imperial court stipulated that Yan Shenggong would go to Beijing once a year to pay tribute to the saints, and this Kong Shangxian took this opportunity to let the tenants of the clan prepare gifts and entanglements for him, and loot the fat and ointment of the people along the way, like robbers looting, if the prefecture and county yamen stopped a little, they would be humiliated by him in every way. This Yan Shenggong also took the looted proceeds to Beijing to sell, and did not leave for his hometown until the goods were sold out every year, which has become a major local public hazard. ”

Nine Ghost Zheng Xiaoqi said: "What does this have to do with local taxes? ”

I smiled and said: "Kong Shangxian has tax exemption qualifications, his branch is sealed in Qufu, and the local farmers have leased the land to him, exempting the imperial court from taxes, but it is divided between the two families." That's why he wasn't afraid to check the land, it was all rented, so what was there to be afraid of! ”

The three of them nodded their heads, indicating that this was the case.

I continued: "The ancestor of Xue Bian, Marquis of Yangwu, was a martyr of Jingnan, and settled in Shandong after receiving the title, and the fields given to him by Emperor Chengzu were hundreds of hectares in Jiaozhou: however, a hundred years have come into the hands of Xue Bian, and now the Xue family owns about millions of acres of land. According to the old system of the imperial court, the sealed fields rewarded by the emperor can be exempted from taxes, and the Xue family took advantage of this loophole to annex so many acres of land and did not pay any taxes for so many years. ”

After a pause, I continued: "Although this year began to levy a thin tax on the closed fields, nine out of ten the Xue family's fields are not among them, and the tax he pays is only a drop in the middle. And this time Shoufu asked me to come to Shandong, I'm afraid the pilot is still second, the most important thing is to get rid of these two obstacles! ”

The kite frowned and said: "It's just that this Yangwu Marquis family heirloom iron scroll golden book, he can't help it if he doesn't commit a major crime of rebellion, although this Kong Shangxian is slightly inferior, but it is not so easy to handle." You can't let him die on the spot like the son of the prefect before, or destroy the door like Yan Chongsi! ”

I picked up Yingxiu, gently wiped the scabbard, and said with a faint smile: "Sometimes, you don't need to use your own knife to kill!" We still need to find some actors! ”
