After the beginning of spring in early February, everything is active. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Some of the plants have begun to erupt, and when the snow has receded, a variety of rocks have begun to emerge and come to life.

At the same time, the new issue of the Yingfeng Bureau also arrived in Jiangzhou. The document was forwarded by Cai Qian, the Yamen of Zhizhou, and turned into a proclamation pasted everywhere at the city gates: encouraging the people to start taking action and searching for all kinds of exotic flowers and plants so that they could contribute to the royal family.

Followed by Liang Hongying and Lin Chong, Gao Fangping wore civilian clothes, like a low-key person, and followed the crowd to watch the proclamation.

Gao Fangping has read the original text of the Southeast Bureau's promotion of Lord Zhu Mian and sent it to Jiangzhou, but Zhu Mian only came to ask for it in the name of the royal family, and judging from the wording, it was a request. However, after being forwarded by the state yamen, it became a requirement of the Jiangzhou yamen to the people under its rule.

By April, each household must contribute three "distinctive" uncommon flowers and stones to be selected by the payment bureau. After contributing, it is considered to have completed the service to the royal family, and if the contributed flower stone is finally selected by the Ying Ying Bureau, it will be regarded as merit and given a plaque.

However, those families who have been selected by the Responding Bureau with two flowers and stones will be exempted from half of the tax this year.

If three pieces are selected by the Receivables Bureau, they will be exempted from paying taxes this year.

In addition, the people are encouraged to dig more peculiar flowers and stones to contribute, although it is the minimum requirement of three copies per household, but the state government has painted cakes, and the more they contribute, the greater the chance of being selected.

I saw that next to the notice, in addition to being guarded by two soldiers from the Detention Department, there was also a guy similar to a royal scribe from the Ying Bureau, who was interpreting the details of the proclamation to the common people.

This elegant scribe hugged his fist in the direction of Bianjing and said: "All the people have listened to the headquarters, every spring is a new beginning, as the Son of Heaven, if the official family can have a good mood, the Great Song Dynasty will be smooth and the country and the people will be safe." My life is better, and of course yours will be better. Therefore, the annual spring tribute is particularly important, every family must do their best to complete the task, if you can't complete the service in the end, it is you who suffer, then you have to pay for the shortage, because ah, you have not paid, you need others to pay more, is to increase the burden on others. ”

Some of the common people are worried, a few are happy, and most are indifferent. On the whole, they were unusually quiet, and they didn't point fingers at it too much, because frankly, they were used to it since there was the Southeast Bureau.

Gao Fangping watched all this coldly from the periphery, and after thinking about the content of the proclamation for a while, he turned his head sideways and whispered to Lin Chong: "Looking for Han Shizhong to drink Ding Er to come here to see me, it's now." ”

Lin Chong nodded and pushed away the crowd in a low-key manner.

Given that Han Shizhong was also roaming the nearby street market and pretending to be a hooligan, he came quickly.

Yes, Han Shizhong was born as a gangster in the market, and pretending to be a hooligan is his specialty. The way he came into contact with various black blacksmith workshops was to pretend to be a hooligan to blackmail and collect protection money. In this way, the contact can be logical, and at the same time, it can trigger some follow-up actions of the blacksmith, and many things can be observed.

After Han Shizhong and the articulate Ding Er came, Gao Fangping looked very sinister and commanded them in their ears for a long time, including how to ask questions and how to speak, Gao Fangping gave an explanation.

The clerk of the bureau was on stage, conveying the administrative orders of the state government over and over again, quite dedicated, and kept emphasizing that this was a royal task, so that everyone could understand.

"However, I heard that there is a limit to the number of flowers and stones that can actually be shipped to Tokyo every year, and although the official family is noble and sage, there is a limit to what he can enjoy and see." Han Shizhong pretended to be a farmer with a hoe that he bought for ten yuan temporarily: "I'm strange, it is the entire Jiangnan region that participates in the collection of flower stones, and tens of millions of people put down the things in their hands to collect flower stones. Your Majesty's flowers and stones are limited, but the Ying Feng Bureau concentrates so many resources to carefully select, and then every time the flowers and stones that are more than nine layers and five layers and the people have worked hard to collect are sunk into the river and discarded, not to mention the waste of people's power, but also to block the river, is this what the wise and martial Your Majesty wants? ”

The scribe on the stage said: "Such an elegant thing, you wait for the mud legs to understand a fart, don't talk about the government and the thoughts of the officials." Honestly hand over the flowers and stones, work together, and you can go to your field honestly after completing the task. If you can't finish it, do you still want to farm? ”

The scribe was foaming at the mouth and screaming, and he was also a little strange why Jiangzhou began to have objections. But after careful searching, he couldn't find the person who spoke, and he couldn't find Han Shizhong's location.

This time, Ding Er cleverly changed his position and said, "Elegant things? It's obviously borrowing the reputation of the official family so that you can make money. It has been a few years since the Bureau of Fortune colluded with the local government to loot, and you have painted cakes beautifully, saying that those who have been selected can be exempted from paying taxes. But Ben Ni Leg has to ask, how many people are rewarded every year? The Huashigang collected by the common people with great effort was transported to Beijing by the Bureau of Economics, but taking Jiangzhou as an example, how many people were exempted from paying taxes last year? Are there more than ten people? ”

The sergeant guarding the proclamation, and the scribe who interpreted it, suddenly changed color, and began to search everywhere, shouting, "Who is talking!" Are you trying to rebel and discredit the wisdom of the official family? ”

This time in the other direction, Han Shizhong continued to ask: "So, the so-called rewards are all fake, the people everywhere have been fooled, the entire Jiangnan region has handed in nearly 100 million pieces of flowers and stones every year, and at least a million pieces have been selected, but who was selected?" There is a huge shady operation in this, and there is no clear statement at all. The Suzhou government said to the local people: This time the people of Suzhou are not good, they don't work hard, and most of the flowers and stones have been selected by the people of Jiangzhou. Then the Jiangzhou government also said to Jiangzhou: Jiangzhou did not work hard this year, and most of them were taken to Suzhou. As a result, the common people were played, and every year there should be millions of people in the entire Jiangnan area who won the lottery and were tax-exempt. But in fact, how many people win the lottery is up to the Bureau, and I heard that the number of winners given every year does not exceed 10,000. Therefore, the rewards allocated by the official treasury to make up for the losses of the people should have fallen into the pockets of the relevant officials, right? ”

When the people heard this, they thought it made sense. Although they have been exploited, their interests are at stake, and the only incentive to collect flowers and stones, the only hope of paying tax servitude, is dashed.

The scene did not cause chaos, but the people were very disappointed, although they did not dare to scold, but after understanding the reason, they completely lost their enthusiasm for collecting flowers and stones.

The scribe above finally changed his complexion, and he was anxious, and he was determined to find out this mud leg who "said nonsense and told the truth".

The two sergeants clenched their knives to prevent a mass incident.

was finally found by the scribe, and he excitedly pointed to Ding Er, who was wearing civilian clothes in the crowd under the stage: "The worst person is him, inciting the people's emotions, arrest him!" ”

When the situation reached this point, Gao Fangping glanced at him and ordered Han Shizhong to retreat quietly, leaving Ding Er as the pick-up man.

As a pick-up man, you have to be beaten.

It's right to be beaten, this is Gao Fangping's strategy.

It's a pity that the people sent by Cai Qian to maintain stability are too inferior and too poor, and they will only use violence.

So the two sergeants, in front of many ordinary people, jumped and trampled on Ding Er.

The common people were filled with righteous indignation, and they all felt sorry for Ding Er and sympathized with him. Ding Er, the person who spoke for their bitter people, suffered such abuse, what is the reason.

But this is also the reason why the people of Jiangzhou do not speak.

In other words, the worse Ding Er was beaten at this time, the deeper the people's feelings for him would be.

That's right, when Gao Fangping took the stage to set things right, the people's hearts naturally stood on Gao Fangping's side.

Gao Fangping is so treacherous and obscene, this is his despicable method of playing with public opinion and fishing for the first bucket of popular popularity in Jiangzhou.

Of course, this plan is a sudden inspiration, damn who asked Zhu Mian to jump out at this time to pull hatred, since they jumped out, of course, they can only be used by the big demon king, who is good at seizing opportunities, to brush up their reputation.

It's a bitter ploy. Ding Er's back wounds were not all healed, and when he was beaten, the wounds were torn, and blood stains came out again.

At some point, the people dispersed in fright. At the same time, a veteran of the Tiger Head Battalion hiding in the crowd shouted: "Kill someone, this person is Xiucai, it is Xiucai from Suzhou!" ”

The scribe who was presiding over the situation finally panicked, and the two sergeants hurriedly stopped. They really want to catch the chaos and kill them. If it was a mud leg, it wouldn't be a big problem, at least under the rule of Jiangzhou Cai Qian. But if Xiucai is killed, the mess will be a little bigger.

The scribe hurriedly squatted down to check Ding Er's injury, and when he saw that his life was not in danger, he was relieved, and angrily reprimanded: "Who are you, why did you slander the official mansion by making a statement? ”

"The villain's home, where to live in the city of Suzhou, the family has a house and a field, and life is boundless......"

Ding Er started rapping again, which was quite smooth.

The two sergeants were ready to masturbate Ding Er a few times, but the scribe listened to Ding Er's exit into a chapter, it was indeed a person who had read a book for a few years, and it was very likely that he was really a talent, so he grabbed the sergeant and announced in public: "This person has read the book of sages in vain, and is suspected of slandering the official family, come, take it according to the law, and hand it over to the state government for questioning!" ”

In this way, Ding Er was not flattened by the sea, but was dragged away, leaving a long bloodstain on the ground, damn like the injured person in the movie was dragged away by the eighteen bronze men.

After the people from the government left, a few people who were quite bold sighed: "Hey...... In this world, there will be fewer and fewer people who dare to speak, and this scholar may be worse this time. ”

"I don't know, who will give him justice this time?"

"Who will do it? Once you speak for this show, it is equivalent to fighting against the popular organization Ying Feng Bureau, who would do such a thing? A local talent in Jiangzhou sighed.

"I heard that Gao Fangping, the newly appointed general judge of Jiangzhou, although it is not a good thing, but he specifically opposes the Jiangnan officials, especially the Ying Feng Bureau has been rectified by him several times." Said a soldier of the Tiger Head Battalion lurking among the people.

"Well, Gao Fangping has heard some of his deeds, so I don't know what he will do this time."

"Pork farming is very good, the story is okay, my children like his "Big Bad Wolf" the most, but later I heard that it was written by Li Qingzhao, so it changed its taste, and the children don't like it very much, on the contrary, it is the favorite of the merry talents."
