When his subordinates heard this, they hurriedly went to the kitchen to talk to the cooks. Pen~Fun~Ge www.biquge.info The cook had a pot of chicken soup removed from the table in the morning, and he didn't move much, so he went back to the pot and heated it.

When the man went up, he saw that there was still a chicken thigh and a wing intact, so he served it as the cook's face, pinched it out with his hand, gnawed it, threw the leg bones and wing tips back, and took it away in the cook's surprise.

Li Mi and Wang Heng were watching outside, and Li Daojue didn't invite them, so they sat down. When the two saw the chicken soup served, they didn't understand which one Li Daojue was playing today.

Wang Heng said to Li Mi, "Let's go, brother, let's go eat alone." Li Mi said, "Master Peng is here, let's go and see each other." Wang Heng was a little weak-hearted, for fear that Peng Wanghai would not pay attention to himself, so he insisted on not going, and the two of them stepped out of the gate of the Assassin's Mansion.

Li Daojue saw that the chicken soup had arrived, and hurriedly asked Peng Tingshi, "Lord Peng, please, please ......"

Peng Tingshi stretched out the chopsticks, and saw the bones that were stunned on the soup noodles, and said in his heart that he was reluctant to move the chopsticks, and the bones came out. Then he turned the plate of pickles, and the pickles were tasteless, and he didn't dare to frown.

Li Daojue said, "Master Peng, you don't know anything, this official knows that the salt in Jiannan Dao is of great use--I want to exchange it for double-threaded silk." There is little salt in Yazhou, and the officials must set an example by drinking more soup and adding less salt to each meal. ”

Eating here, the wine is also the bad wine that the people have just spent a few pennies on and sold from the street, and it is bitter to drink it in the throat. But Peng Wanghai found that Li Daojue didn't even frown when he drank it, and the Gao Beijia and Mrs. Li were also full of interest and frequently persuaded each other, so he had to bite the bullet and eat a few more bites.

But this meal made one person angry, and it was Mrs. Wang. As usual, where is it Li Jueling's turn to accompany such a scene, both of them have to come forward. She didn't find her eldest brother and Li Mi, but she heard Yahuan say that she had been eating and drinking there for a while.

She couldn't sit still any longer, and got up and went to the antechamber. When I arrived, Master Peng from Meizhou had already gotten up and said goodbye.

At this meal, Li Daojue was very happy to eat, and sent Peng Tingshi away, he said to Mrs. Wang, "Where are you used to eating this, go eat Xiaozao," and ignored her.

Mrs. Wang returned to the back house, her heart went up and down, don't say how strange today's events are, just Li Daojue's tone of speaking to her is different from the past: she sounds full of concern, but she feels that something is wrong. was thinking wildly, and listened to the guard team of the assassin in the front yard assembling, and then got on their horses and walked out of the gate.

Mrs. Wang came out to see, but she didn't see Li Jueling go back to the back house, and there was no her in front of her. But I saw Li Mi and Wang Heng standing outside the door, looking at the smoke and dust on the avenue in a daze. Seeing his sister, Wang Heng asked, "Where did my brother-in-law go?" I also took Bie Jia and the Li family's sister-in-law......"

In front of her brother-in-law Li Mi, Mrs. Wang was not angry with her eldest brother, so she turned around and threw off the two of them and went back to the backyard.

In Rongjing County, the county commander Jin ushered in Li Daojue, the assassin of Yazhou, I don't know why the assassin rushed over in the afternoon with such fanfare, and also took the second lady and Xizhou's farewell, he respectfully asked the Lord of the assassin Shi about the intention.

Li Daojue said, "How is the autumn grain harvest? ”

Jin Xian ordered his subordinates to bring up the account books. Li Daojue took it and looked at it, and said in his mouth, "Tax grain is 1,672 stones, one bucket, four in one, spoon and four copies." ”

When Gao Jun heard this, he asked the county order, "Lord Jin, the accounts are so accurate!" There are even a few copies, but I don't know how many people need to pay food in Rongjing County? ”

Jin County Ling already knew Gao Jun's identity, and when he saw the second lady of the assassin Shi shouting one brother after another, knowing that he didn't dare to slack off, he hurriedly replied, "There are a total of 1,253 Ding in Rongjing County, but there are not so many people who actually pay for food. ”

Gao Jun asked, "How many people actually paid for the grain?" How many people don't pay? ”

The county decree said, "Farewell to Lord Farewell, there are a total of 393 people in this county who do not need to pay food, so there are 860 people in the county who need to pay food......

Gao Jun said, "In this way, more than 1,670 stone of grain is all borne by these more than 860 people, and when it is subdivided into the body of each grain recipient, it is nearly two stone of grain per capita." On such a hillside, the county commander, you have received a little too much! ”

Li Daojue listened and realized this problem, but if he asked him, he didn't know where to start. Li Daojue didn't interrupt Gao Jun's questioning, but just stared at Jin County Order with a pair of eyes, how dare Jin County Order not answer, so he said, "Lord Gao, don't you know, Yazhou Mansion collects grain according to the total number of people......

Li Jueling said, "Ding Zhuang, who does not pay grain, is close to thirty percent of the people in the county, not that Yazhou collects too much, but that there are too many people in Rongjing County who do not pay grain!" I don't know what those 300 people are doing? ”

Li Daojue instructed, "Lord Jin, bring me the roster of people who don't need to pay food." ”

After a while, a master brought up the roster, and this time Li Daojue didn't look at it in person, but pushed the roster in front of his wife and said, "You read it for me." ”

Mrs. Li had never done such a thing, and he was very excited, and he found that Li Daojue and Gao Jun both closed their eyes, as if waiting for her to read it, so he read:

"Rongjing County has one county commander, seven county officials, chief bookkeepers, county lieutenants and below; There were also seven firewood servants," she asked, pausing, "and the number of each man's official silver was inscribed at the back...... Do you want to read it? ”

Li Daojue didn't open his eyes, "Read!" So Mrs. Li read them all.

Gao Jun listened quietly, these firewood payrolls are the people who collect firewood for the county government, there are a total of seven people, and each person's annual official silver is twelve taels of silver, a total of eighty-four taels.

Rongjing County is mountainous, and the county order and others do not sit in a sedan chair, but ride a horse. Therefore, there are three horsemen in the county government, who are specially fed for the county commander, the county magistrate, and the county lieutenant, and each person has 40 taels of silver per year, a total of 120 taels.

Mrs. Li read again: "There are four menzi, twenty-six soap officials and archers, one treasury son, and three forbidden sons, a total of thirty-four, each of whom has seven taels of silver, a total of two hundred and forty twenty-eight coins; ”

"One warehouse servant, eighty-two taels of silver."

Gao Beijia suddenly opened his eyes, "I know this cangdou servant, he has almost half a bucket of rice for a copy, is it because of this that he gave him eighty-two taels of silver?" He alone took more than ten times as much silver as an archer! ”

Jin Xian Ling already roughly knew the purpose of Lord Thorn Shi's trip, he was a little anxious, and replied, "It's true that he has big hands, but he also has a lot of strength. Besides, he alone is worth three people. ”

Gao Jun smiled, "If it's really one, it's fine, but I obviously saw that when he was collecting grain, he was just scraping and copying rice there, and there were three other things being done, isn't it just using his big hand?" ”

Li Daojue didn't know how Gao Jun knew so much about the affairs in Rongjing County, and he snorted heavily to express his dissatisfaction with the county order. A cold sweat appeared on Jin Xianling's forehead, and he said incoherently, "Two adults...... Madam, the others were all from the yazhong who ran over to help. ”

Mrs. Li asked with a smile, "Then, his eighty-two taels turned out to include the salary for hiring helpers in the yazhong, no wonder it is so high...... So are the official silver of these Yazhong people still issued? ”

At that time, when the amount of official silver for this warehouse servant was determined, he saw that this person was a relative of the county catcher, and saw that the kid was indeed like an iron tower and his hands were as big as a shovel, so he set an eighty-two taels, some of which were whole and some were zero. At that time, I thought, such a small role, it will pass with you closing your eyes, and more than eighty taels of silver can attract a head catcher, why not?

But he didn't expect that this matter would be stared at by the second lady of the assassination, and he was a little squeaky at that time.

But Li Daojue found that his second lady's thinking and speech were so clever for the first time, so he looked at her with some appreciation and motioned for her to continue. (To be continued.) )
