WHEN XIAO TIANJIAN HUGGED FAN YUTONG AT NIGHT, AFTER A LONG PERIOD OF CLOUDS AND RAIN, HE COMFORTABLY HELD FAN YUTONG'S DONG BODY AND LAY ON THE BED, FAN YUTONG TOUCHED A FEW NEW SCARS ON XIAO TIANJIAN, AND HE JUST WANTED TO SHED TEARS IN DISTRESS, COMPLAINING THAT XIAO TIANJIAN WAS TOO CARELESS!

So Xiao Tianjian told Fan Yutong about his injury, and when he heard that Zuo Liangyu used women and children as a meat shield to resist the attack of the Xingtian Army, Fan Yutong couldn't help but scold angrily: "This Zuo Liangyu is really damned!" ”

"Yes! This guy is indeed a hero! It's a pity that it was bad luck and ran into me! Now this guy has been crushed by me, and I can't even find a single skeleton! It can be regarded as avenging the blood revenge of those people! In the future, there will be one less brutal person in this world! Xiao Tianjian replied lazily while wandering on Fan Yutong's delicate body with his hand. （..)

AFTER A WHILE, XIAO TIANJIAN FELT THAT HIS MAJESTY HAD REVIVED, SO HE TURNED OVER AND PRESSED ON FAN YUTONG'S DONG BODY AGAIN, AND FAN YUTONG WAS SHOCKED AND SHOUTED: "DON'T BECOME A HUSBAND, THE CONCUBINE CAN'T BEAR IT JUST NOW!" The concubine knows that her husband has been suppressed for a long time, but the concubine is really unable to bear it! If it doesn't work, the husband will go to Die'er or Ling'er! Concubines won't be jealous! ”

Xiao Tianjian laughed, kissed Fan Yutong's face lovingly, and said with a smile: "I'm going to be lewd today, why go to them?" If you don't want them, then call them......"

In this night, Xiao Tianjian tossed until the second half of the night before he and the girls dispersed, lying between them, Xiao Tianjian couldn't help sighing: "No wonder some people don't think about business, it seems that even I have the potential to be a faint king!" Haha......"

Although Xiao Tianjian enjoys the life of going home very much, but this kind of day is destined to be impossible to achieve before he dominates the world, that is, after a night of prostitution, he was pulled out of the beauty by himself before dawn, although tomorrow is the first day of the Lunar New Year, but considering that it is still a special time, there is no precedent for Xingtianjun to take a holiday and rest, so he got up and dressed neatly under the service of Fan Yutong and Die'er, and simply ate some breakfast, and then went out of the house and came to the original Luoyang Mansion Governor's Yamen, This is just the government center of the Xingtian Army now, and Niu Jinxing and other civilian officials are working here.

When Xiao Tianjian came to Yamen, he found that he didn't come very early, and many civil officials such as Niu Jinxing had already arrived earlier than him, and had already begun to work here.

Officials from all over Henan will send people to Luoyang when they encounter things, and then Niu Jinxing and others will deal with it here, on the whole, the Xingtian Army has not established a complex government affairs system at present, and the handling of various things is much faster, and in the Xingtian Army, there is no infighting, but compared to the imperial court, the situation is much better, so there is basically no one person to work, a group of people to pick thorns, whoever does a little bit of success, will immediately attract everyone to besiege, know to do you down, Therefore, on the whole, the speed of handling various affairs of the Xingtian Army is very fast, which is also the advantage that Xiao Tianjian currently has.

This time, with Xiao Tianjian's return to Luoyang City, all kinds of original plans were disrupted, so Niu Jinxing's gang did not dare to slack off, and even worked overtime all night.

Seeing this situation, Xiao Tianjian was much more relieved, and while waving his hand to let those officials continue to busy them, he walked into the lobby, and the lobby here is not like before, there is only a big case, only for an official to sit behind the big case to work, but there is a charcoal basin for heating in the lobby, and there are many desks around, many people are working collectively here, which is a bit of the taste of the office of the future, many things can be discussed when they look up, and they can make decisions immediately, as soon as they see Xiao Tianjian come here so early, Niu Jinxing and the others quickly stood up and bowed like Xiao Tianjian.

"Excuse me! You seem to be very dedicated and hardworking! It's still a little too cold here, so a little more charcoal! Sit down, everybody! I'm just here to find out how our situation in Henan has been recently! Xiao Tianjian sat in the position of Niu Jinxing in the center under the humility of Niu Jinxing.

"At present, it can be said that in Henan, except for a few places in the western mountains that are not fully included in our jurisdiction, most of the rest of the land in the central and eastern regions have been included in our jurisdiction! At present, every county and even township has sent our people to take charge of the affairs of these places!

Last month, I counted the number of households in Henan, and from the figures summarized from all over the country, the population in various places has recovered a lot compared with before last year, many of which have fled into Henan from the Jingfu area from last year to now, and there are also households who have moved into Henan from Huguang, Nanzhili, Shandong and other places, and now they are basically settled in the local area!

Therefore, the growth of households is relatively fast, so that the speed of land restoration in various places is also very fast, to the autumn, the cultivated fields restored in various places are about seventy percent, of course, the summer and autumn harvest grain cultivated fields are estimated to be about half, although it is impossible to let everyone eat enough, but the situation of starving people this winter is much better than last winter, especially after the winter, Huguang has imported a large amount of rice to all parts of Henan, and all parts have also sent it down, this winter, at least Henan has starved to death. I guess it will be put to an end!

In addition, some food has been reserved in various places, and these grains have been assigned to the logistics department of the army as a reserve for the army, and now they are uniformly deployed by Luo Bin, ready to respond to emergencies at any time!

In addition, in the first half of this year, there were still a lot of rebellions in various places, under the suppression of the garrison officers in various places, in the second half of the year, there were basically a lot less, and including the original thieves in various places, under the blow of General Liu, they were also exterminated in large numbers, the thieves either settled on the spot to farm, or killed, and some people who did not die were sent to coal mines or iron mines to work as coolies! Therefore, the place is much calmer now, and the lives of the common people are at least much more stable!

This is all thanks to the lord, if it weren't for the lord, this year, I don't know how much population Henan will lose! Most of the people everywhere are grateful to the lord, and when it is time to pay the grain, there is basically no need for the local officials and security chiefs to supervise anything, and the people will hand over the grain that should be paid! After all, compared with the time under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, the grain that the people now accept is only about 20% of what the government had to collect before.

It's just that some squires are a little unhappy, but now as long as it is in the jurisdiction of our Xingtian Army, regardless of whether it is divided into three, six, nine, etc., they are all taxed according to the acreage, and all localities re-measure the fields and register them, so that no one can run away to pay grain taxes! And after all, these people used to pay very little taxes, and even some people didn't have to pay any taxes to the government because someone in their family was an official, but now they have to pay taxes to us on time, which is somewhat unhappy, but they don't dare to say no at the moment, as long as they come to urge, they still pay it obediently! Hehe!

In addition, according to the orders of the lord, the tenant rents of those landlords were all forcibly reduced to less than three buckets per mu of land, and only one bucket of grain was allowed to be collected in the case of thin fields. But as time goes by, I'll get used to it! But the tenants are much better! Basically, after paying the tenant rent, there is still surplus food to survive!

As for the merchants, at present, commercial taxes have been set up in various places, and more than 200,000 taels of silver have been collected this year, although it is still very little, but after all, it has just begun, and it will increase in the future! The businessmen complained about this, but there was nothing they could do! ...... "Niu Jinxing hurriedly introduced some of the civil affairs in Henan this year to Xiao Tianjian!"

After hearing this, Xiao Tianjian nodded and said, "Not bad!" You people have done a lot of things this year! For tax matters, I am this principle, I don't mind having more land, but as long as you are in Lao Tzu's territory and enjoy the protection of Lao Tzu, then no matter who you are, you are obliged to pay taxes! Otherwise, what will Lao Tzu take to raise soldiers?

What's more, they live on Lao Tzu's territory, Lao Tzu suppresses bandits and settles the people, so that they can do whatever they should do in peace, without worrying all day long, and they have to spend money to buy their own guys and arm Zhuang Ding Xiangyong, which also saves them a lot of heart, and also saves a lot of money! They deserve to give us the money they saved! It's called fairness! In this world, even in the future, even if I have land, I will have to pay taxes, and this will never change!

Until one day, we are really developed, after industry and commerce are developed, the country no longer needs to rely on agricultural taxes to feed the country, only the taxes collected by industry and commerce can feed the country, and at that time, the people can no longer pay grain taxes! Even grow food and give them money!

As for the merchants, it is even more natural to pay taxes, the way they travel, the safety of their merchants, must be borne by the state, where does the money come from? So they deserve to pay taxes! The reason why the Ming Dynasty has increased salaries and endowments every year, and now it has made the world so difficult for the people to make a living, is because of this! The merchants and the officials colluded together, and the officials prevented the imperial court from collecting taxes on the merchants, secretly in fact, they were actually protecting their personal interests, in Lao Tzu's territory, including Lao Tzu's father-in-law, as long as they did business in our jurisdiction, paying commercial taxes was a matter of course!

For this reason, you also know that Lao Tzu's father-in-law is very unhappy, but it is not okay to be unhappy, as long as a precedent is set, then this opening will not be blocked in the future! No matter who it is, it has a responsibility and obligation to the country! We can't put the burden on the heads of those flat-headed people, otherwise, sooner or later, we will follow in the footsteps of today's Ming court! You have to remember this clearly, and you must take it to heart! Never forget!

When Lao Tzu takes the world one day, he will not learn the kind of stinginess of the imperial court, for you people, I will raise your salary! It allows you to work in peace and stability, and you can support your family without much effort, and you don't have to worry about relying on yourself to support your subordinates, and the salaries of all kinds of officials are also paid by the state! In short, you can live a decent and comfortable life!

But I also have one requirement, that is, to be honest! I Xiao Tianjian rebelled, that is, the current greed of the imperial court, Xiao hated corrupt officials the most in his life, under my rule, the existence of corrupt officials will never be allowed, I can pay you a very high salary, but if anyone reaches out to take a penny of money that does not belong to you, once discovered, then blame me Xiao someone will turn his face and not recognize people! Or exile to mine! If it's serious, it's a matter of losing your head! I appreciate Ming Taizu's method of peeling the skin and pulling grass of corrupt officials back then, and if someone annoys me because of greed for ink one day, I don't mind using this method to deal with such people!

You can take note of what I said today, if you do a good job, it is possible for anyone to be promoted to the glory of the ancestors! Xiao will never treat those good officials badly, but he will never let go of those mediocre and corrupt officials! After saying that, Xiao Tianjian paused and glanced at the faces of the officials in the hall.

The officials in the lobby were terrified one by one, and they all shivered in their hearts, and during this time, they also discovered one thing, that is, although Xiao Tianjian led his troops to fight in Huguang, he seemed to have a pair of eyes staring at them, and sent people back many times to send back orders to remove some officials from various places who were unclean or who used power for personal gain, and for this reason, dozens of such officials have been killed, and it can be seen that Xiao Tianjian has enough means to monitor officials in various places on the one hand, At the same time, he will never show mercy to corrupt officials, which is enough for everyone to be warned, so everyone quickly got up one after another.

But Xiao Tianjian also revealed a message, that is, as an official in the Xingtian Army, the future is very bright, at least the salary is at least enough to support the family, so that their families can live a decent life, and at the same time do not have to worry about the salaries of the officials under the government to be raised by themselves, if there is no such pressure, then think about it, in order to make a few money, they lost their heads, and if they lost their errands and hurt their families, it is indeed not cost-effective, if this is the case, then it seems that it is not worth it to be greedy for money!

(The old computer has finally ended its historical mission, and over the years, Hanfeng has written more than 10 million words with that old guy, and now it has finally retired honorably, which is really a bit reluctant!) It's decided! Don't sell it, don't throw it away, collect it as a souvenir! After all, it has helped me a lot! You can't just unload the mill and kill the donkey! Hehe! I got a new computer today, and it's really good to use, but it took a little time, but I still rushed out of the manuscript! Today, I would like to thank the three brothers Spicy Death, feng41501, and Smoke and Fire Roast for their tips! ）
