After more than a month, I stepped into Guanlou Village again, but there was a sense of strangeness in the familiarity. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In the distant fields, greenhouses were erected, and white plastering walls were gradually lined up along the edge of the water gossip array. When all these greenhouses are completed, the water and land will become a three-dimensional labyrinth, and it will be extremely difficult for people who do not know the details to pass smoothly.

On the water surface of the Bagua Array, dark green lotus leaves are scattered everywhere, and there are even scattered pink and white buds, waiting to open. Occasionally, a few naughty carps, after jumping out of the water, fall sideways, splashing in circles of ripples.

The willows, which have just been planted along the roadbed, are swaying in the breeze, and it is conceivable that in a few years, they will bring patches of green shade to the villagers.

Seeing the construction of Guanlou Village, he did not stop because of his imprisonment, and Wen was very satisfied. The death of people is a normal state of feudal society, whether a matter is beneficial or not, as long as the chief official is convicted or transferred, it often means that the matter will end without a problem.

As long as the construction of Guanlou Village will not stop, no matter what happens in the future, there will be some things that have proved that they have come to this medieval Great Song Dynasty, which is the imprint left by themselves.

Standing at the entrance of the village, he looked at the villagers who were busy in the fields in the distance, and was quietly distracted.

Wen often falls into this unprovoked sluggish state, and Mei Yiqi, who has been following him for a while, is very familiar with this situation, so he doesn't bother silently, just silently accompanies him.

However, there are always a few people who can be empathetic.

A voice full of flattery interrupted Wen's thoughts at the moment: "Xiaguan Zhu Fumin, I have seen the lord." Knowing that the lord walked out of the prison of Dali Temple safely, he came to congratulate. ”

Turning his mind, he glanced at Zhu Xianling, who was bowing in front of him, and sighed lightly: "Zhu Xianling, your news is very well-informed!" I just left the prison of Dali Temple, and it hasn't been an hour yet, you can block me at the entrance of the village, what a skill! ”

"Sir, you have won the award, after all, you are the only important minister in our Kaocheng County who has the title of national dynasty, and it is appropriate for the lower officials to care more." Zhu Xianling said flatteringly.

"Oh, Zhu Xianling, your so-called concern, is it empty-handed to the door. Don't say that I will give some gifts to the lord, so I am so shocked, you must know that I have been imprisoned in the prison of Dali Temple for more than a month!

We can also be regarded as officials of the same dynasty, as colleagues, you don't go to visit me in the prison of Dali Temple. Now I am blocking the entrance of this village, I see that you are a night owl entering the house, and you are uneasy and kind. Wen teased.

For Wen's poisonous mouth, Zhu Xianling is not the first time to understand the teaching, but he is still angry with a faint pain in his chest, he should have asked God to worship the Buddha's blessing Wen will never be able to get out of the prison of Dali Temple.

A broom star who offended the officials all over the world, only a fool who was full of food and thought that his life was too long, would go to visit him in the prison of Dali Temple. But anyone with normal intelligence will stay away from this broom star. Zhu Xianling cursed in his heart, but said with a smile on his face: "Sir, you are laughing, it is a faux pas of the lower officials, you must not be like the lower officials." ”

Yang Feng Yin violated the matter, I heard that I had seen a lot, and said impatiently: "Sir, I just returned home, there are still many things to deal with, don't tell lies in front of the Ming people, if Zhu Xianling has something, you might as well speak up." ”

Seeing this, Zhu Xian Ling said ruthlessly: "The lord is like this, according to the laws of the imperial court, the autumn tax should be collected at the time of the autumn harvest." But your situation is very special, the lower official asked the Kaifeng Mansion, and the official said that in your case, you should collect tax and silver on a monthly basis.

The first two times the lower official came to collect the tax silver, but he was blocked by the housekeeper in the house, and the lower official had no choice but to bother you. ”

The current land tax policy of the imperial court is a two-tax system a year, spring tax and autumn tax. As a result, I found out what kind of greenhouse, and vegetables were already available at any time, which meant that if the tax money was still collected according to the original two-tax system, the imperial court would lose a lot of money.

For this reason, Zhu Xian ordered to personally go to the Kaifeng Mansion to ask for instructions from Shangguan, and Shangguan's meaning was very clear, as long as he could collect more, he would resolutely collect more.

In desperation, Zhu Xian had to come to collect it in person, and when he came the first few times, Wen was not in prison because he was in prison, and the housekeepers in the Jue's mansion turned himself away on the grounds that he could not make decisions without authorization, and now he had to negotiate with Wen in person.

"Sure enough, it's nothing to do without going to the Three Treasures Palace!" Wen chuckled.

Zhu Xianling said embarrassedly: "Let you see the smile, sir." ”

Wen shook his head slightly and said: "Collect taxes, what is there to laugh at, paying taxes according to law should have been, go back to the house with me, and I will let the housekeeper settle the settlement for you." ”

Seeing and hearing the understatement, Zhu Xianling was surprised in his heart, it was famous for not being able to speak well, this shouldn't be a trap!

The so-called tax is to snatch money from other people's pockets, which is so easy, and no one wants to donate their hard-earned money for no reason. Especially for powerful dignitaries, if they want to collect all the taxes and silver from their hands, it is simply a fool's dream, as long as they can receive one-tenth of the tax revenue every quarter, it can be regarded as giving the court enough face.

Now he has to pull his teeth from the mouth of the smell, after all, there is still a period of time before the autumn tax, and no fool will be willing to pay this kind of tax silver that can be collected or not.

Zhu Xianling followed Wen into the Jue's Mansion in fear, looking left and right along the way, for fear that Wen would ambush three hundred axes and give himself eight pieces, after all, Wen has a serious criminal record, and the courage to bravely enter the county government is not owned by everyone.

Until the tax money was collected and the two servants who followed him were carried out of the palace, Zhu Xianling still didn't believe that things would go so smoothly.

Looking at the more than 300 yuan of tax silver in front of him, Zhu Xianling picked up the consistent money, weighed it in his hand, and asked the two officials: "These silver coins are okay, are they all real?" ”

“........”

When the two officials heard Zhu Xianling's question, the corners of their mouths twitched slightly, and they looked at each other. These taxes were paid in copper coins, and if they were to be faked, there was a possibility that the silver would be filled with lead. It is too difficult to fake copper coins, as long as the color is slightly wrong, you can see it at a glance. Even if it's fake, it's copper! The same is worth a lot of money.

"Could it be that this kid has been in prison for a month and has changed his character?" Zhu Xianling shook his head slightly and muttered.

It is difficult to collect taxes, it is difficult to enter the sky, it has been like this since ancient times, for the tax money that can be easily collected from the hands of Wen, Zhu County Order is puzzled, the usual tax silver, that is, the arrears of several years are a lot of people.

Zhu Xianling, who fell into conspiracy theories, was afraid of disasters along the way, lest disaster come.

But for Wen, paying taxes is not an unacceptable thing, he has long been washed away by the glory of paying taxes publicized by later generations, after all, only by paying taxes, can he speak loudly in front of those public servants of the people. (To be continued.) )
