Chapter 60: Uncle Zhong Goes Out
Chapter 60
can be a long-term follower in the former cabinet boss's house, in addition to Uncle Zhong's excellent ability and flexible mind, this appearance is not bad, although when he left the county office, he was still dressed in Tsing Yi and a short fight, but the first impression of the whole person is that he is elegant and rich, plus he is followed by two Jian'an Yang family members who look as strong as Xiong Zhen, which makes people feel unspeakably expensive.
The so-called rich man's micro-service patrol is nothing more than that.
Pacing leisurely, Uncle Zhong soon came to the wharf of the Yongning River, looked at the busy passenger and cargo ships, and found a teahouse to sit in.
The geographical location of Huangyan County is still very good, in the southeast of Taizhou Prefecture, Yongning River in the northwest, Yushan Mountain in the south, not to mention the mountains and rivers, the east is directly the sea, Yongning River is the downstream of Chengjiang, but all inland merchants take the waterway, regardless of whether they enter the inland or go to the sea, most of them have to stop in Huangyan County, replenish freshwater food or sell some goods are common things, and it is precisely because of this that Hongwu has eliminated 354 inspection divisions in the world, and the inspection department in this place has not been abolished.
can be a junior in such a prosperous area, all of them are awake characters, as soon as they saw Uncle Zhong's bearing, they hurriedly greeted him: "How many are you objective?" ”
Uncle Zhong smiled, his face was kind, and when he opened his mouth, there was a taste of Beijing films: "There are three people in total, Xiao Lao'er, the second brother will find a good place, serve a pot of good tea, and let Xiao Lao'er see the scenery of the Yongning River." ”
Xiao Er listened to the tone of this speech, his eyes lit up, it is true that the southerners are rich these days, but the northerners are more generous, and the people of Beijing are the representatives of them.
So the little two nodded and said to this loyal uncle: "Your old man, please come with the little one, this will find you a good position, and let you see the scenery up and down the Yongning River." ”
Carrying a towel, he skillfully wiped the table, chair and bench, and then nodded and said, "You always wait here, and the little one will go and serve you tea." ”
Uncle Zhong smiled and nodded, he didn't care about anything, as soon as the little two turned around, he went downstairs with a smoke, and Uncle Zhong took his eyes to the dock not far away, and saw the boats on the Yongning River, which was very lively.
"This Yongning River Wharf is also a good place, every day when ships come and go, just one block the road and set up a card, you can collect a lot of money, right?" Uncle Zhong shook his head and sighed, "It's just that the inspection department on this dock hasn't visited the young master yet, so I'm afraid I have contempt in my heart." ”
The Ming Dynasty emphasized agriculture and suppressed business, so the minimum agricultural tax was ten taxes and one one, and places like Zhejiang were much higher because of historical problems and their own natural conditions, and the commercial tax was thirty taxes and one to express their all-round contempt for businessmen, but the thirty taxes and ten official, and the merchants were also cheap industries, so the caravans traveled to and from various checkpoints, all of which were to be eaten and taken cards, as for whether the eating method was civilized and whether the routines were advanced, it depended on the mood of the officials in charge.
A family member owes himself, and then said: "After all, the young master is too young, so everyone has a little contempt in their hearts, right?" Not to mention that there is no one among the people who greet the young master at the gate of the Japanese Ya there, it is Huang Cheng of that county, isn't he also a stumbling man? Besides, this inspection department is fat, and if there is no foundation in the provincial political envoy department, it will not be able to reap such benefits. ”
The inspection grade of the inspection department is not high, it is only nine products, but it is a powerful supplement to the local household registration system, which is specifically in charge of the floating population, and the corresponding existence of the Lijia system, not only has power in hand, but also has more than a dozen dozens of archers, in the county where the inspection department is set up, the sequence is higher than the main book of the same nine products, and sometimes it can even be higher than the county.
Uncle Zhong shook his head and sneered: "Don't take this inspection too seriously, there is such a big movement in Hangzhou Mansion, and I haven't even received the limelight here, how can it be a relative of a big person?" At best, he is just a person who doesn't know how much money he donated, and he has gone to the door in the provincial political envoy. ”
After a pause, Uncle Zhong sighed: "After all, I am old, I am afraid that some things will not be remembered, you write it down for me, go back and talk to the young master, and when the affairs of the county settle down, find a reason to take down this inspection department and let one of your own people go up." ”
Jia Ding nodded and replied respectfully: "Uncle Zhong, don't worry, I have written it down." ”
Uncle Zhong snorted, and wanted to say something more, when he heard footsteps, so he closed his mouth, turned his head to look, and saw Xiao Er walking up with a tea tray, putting it down lightly, and then said, "The tea you always want is here." ”
Uncle Zhong smiled, watched Xiao Er turn around to go downstairs, and hurriedly beckoned: "This little brother, the old man has something to inquire with your shopkeeper, you go and see, if he is not busy, ask him to come up and tell the old man, how about it?" ”
Xiao Er turned around, and a look of embarrassment appeared on his face: "Old man, you look like it's the time to be busy......
Uncle Zhong took out a small string of money from his arms, about more than twenty, and gently put it on the table, so the second half of Xiao Er's words swallowed directly into his stomach, nodded and said: "You stay a little longer, the little one will talk to the shopkeeper." ”
Seeing Xiao Er rushing downstairs, Uncle Zhong shook his head: "As the saying goes, the car and boat shop should be killed if you ignore it, although this is a bit excessive, but it is also to say that the matter in this market, the young master came to Huangyan County, but he is not here to mess around, but also to make a career, the official inspection department is to take it down, in this market, it is necessary to let the horse gang and Cao gang in Huangyan County obey." ”
The other family member pondered for a moment and nodded: "They are all walking on the mouth of the rivers and lakes, otherwise the little one will inquire and talk to the leader of the Cao Gang at night?" ”
While speaking, there was a hint of murder between the eyebrows of this Ding, and Uncle Zhong knocked on the table and shook his head: "The young master is the official of the imperial court, and this rule will be done in accordance with the rules of the official face. ”
