This time, Li Boyan's boat did not make a long detour, and went directly south to Xiangshui and headed for Yongzhou. About ten days later, they arrived in Yongzhou. Since the Xiangjiang port stopped the boat, the ten days on the water have made Li Boyan a little haggard, and the carriage of the Li Mansion has been waiting early by a pavilion by the river. The pier of Liuzi Street has not yet been repaired, so the big ship can only be farther away and stop at a larger pier in the outer city.

"Pinch the time, the young master should also arrive, today is finally here." The housekeeper of the Li family looked at Li Boyan happily, "Let the old slave see, has the young master ever lost weight in the two months he has been outside?" ”

"Ma Bo has worked hard, is the family okay?" After two months, Li Boyan has returned to Yongzhou, the place where the dream began, and now I don't know what has changed in the past two months?

"Okay, it's all right. The second lady gave birth at the end of last month and gave birth to a big fat boy, and the old man's Coke was broken. The Seventh Lady is also about to give birth, I don't know if it's a girl or a boy, in short, everything is fine. ”

"Forehead ......" The three cannons also came down, and Li Boyan silently felt sorry for the poor baby, three cannons, Li Sanpao...... Two dogs, three cannons, I don't know if this nickname will leave any psychological shadow on these two babies in the future.

Uncle Ma swept his eyes and said with a smile: "Yo, Miss Qiu is also back." ”

"Marber." Qiu Jianmei is polite to everyone, but to Li Boyan, his forehead ...... Headache.

"This son is ......"

"Under Tang Rui."

"Hello Tang Gongzi, Lao Tzu has also mentioned you in Zhuangzi for a long time, and I finally looked forward to you."

Li Boyan said: "Okay, okay, let's go back to Zhuangzi." The head of the goods here will be in charge. "There is a disadvantage of big ships, that is, they can't take the narrow waterway, otherwise it will be easy to run aground, and the goods unloaded from here have to be changed to small boats, and then enter the city from the river to Liuzi Street.

"Slowly, slowly. Young people, one more is not too much, one less is not less, here is a poor and remote place, please take Ye into the city! The middle-aged Uncle Ye came down late, and almost missed the rare opportunity to rub the car, "Look, it's not early this day, the old lady is not ripe, and the little brother Lao will give me a ride." ”

Li Boyan is also a pleasure, this uncle is so cute, if it wasn't for the inhumanity of throwing him off the boat halfway, he would have kicked him into the river a long time ago, and now he still wants to rub the car? There are no doors!

"Sorry, the car is full. Uncle, go to the city. Marber, go. ”

Uncle Ye was so angry that he jumped to his feet and scolded: "You are in this later life, you are harming others and not benefiting yourself!" ”

Li Boyan was also speechless, this was still addictive, and he was not doing charity, so he waved to the middle-aged scholar behind the car, "Uncle Rub, let's see you in the rivers and lakes." ”

"It's too much of a deception! It's too much of a deception! Uncle Ye pointed to the carriage and scolded, but to no avail, and turned around to Kang Shuaibo with an embarrassed smile, "This dart head, can you ......?"

"No." Kang Shuaibo has been following Li Boyan for a long time, and he has also learned a bad stomach, if it was the beginning of the darts in the south and the north, such a righteous act would definitely be a bold promise, but this time, he also said no to this uncle, pointed to the west, and said: "The city is in that direction, Mr. should hurry up, if it is late, you will have to sleep in the wilderness." ”

"It's too much of a deception! What a deception! Uncle Ye's beard trembled with anger, carried his baggage, and turned away, "Enter the city, and then make you look good!" ”

There are many people in the poor mountains and bad waters, and now that Mr. Ye has not entered Yongzhou, he classifies Li Boyan as a Diao people, and he can't wait to beat him up.

The cold wind was bone-chilling, it was a time when the farm was slack, but Uncle Ye passed by the ridge and saw a lot of croppers, working in the fields, and some wondered, are they still working in winter? So he took the time to ask: "Old man, are you still working this winter?" ”

An old man glanced at it and said with a smile: "You're from a foreign country, right?" Of course, we planted it in the winter, and these wheat are our own rations, so we don't plant them and waste them. ”

"Homemade? Don't have to pay taxes? ”

The old man said happily: "Maizi doesn't pay taxes, we met great benevolent people in Yongzhou, and now most customers don't even pay the household tax." ”

Uncle Ye was dumbfounded, there was still such a thing, and the local state officials were so desolate?

"According to the old man, isn't the governor a mediocre official?"

The big man who was originally farming raised his body and said a little unhappily: "Hey, Fan Zhizhou is an official and a citizen, what kind of bird are you talking about!" What's wrong with not paying taxes? ”

"Are you justified in not paying taxes? Diao Min! ”

The big man was furious, and he held a hoe to hit him, "I'll kill you with a hoe!" ”

Uncle Ye was so scared that his soul was rising, Diao Min, definitely Diao Min!

He ran out of the field, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and leaned against the trunk of a tree panting.

"It's horrible, it's horrible. Such a treacherous place, I wouldn't have come if I knew it would be like this! He thought that the south of Dongting was a place to degrade officials, and he was relieved, but the farmers did not pay taxes, and there was still a royal law? Is it still the royal land of the Great Song Dynasty?

Mr. Ye wiped his sweat and walked for a while, and suddenly felt that there was something strange again.

"This brother, why is this Zhuangzi so lively? It's like a small city! ”

The man paused and smiled, "You're a foreigner." ”

Mr. Ye was a little angry and shouted, "Yes! "Really, does the old man look out of place? How can I see one and say that he is a foreigner?

"This is the Li family's workshop."

"Zuo...... Workshop? Brother Tai don't want to bluff me, there is such a big workshop? ”

The man who worked on Lijiazhuang smiled: "This is your earthen hat." The Li family's workshop now has thousands of people, and now there are more than 3,000 people in the workshop, so it is naturally so big. ”

"Three thousand! What the? Three thousand! "When Uncle Ye spoke, his tongue was knotted, what kind of workshop, to employ 3,000 people, is this a rebellion?

Seeing Uncle Ye's fierce reaction, the man said habitually: "It's really a countryman." Li Dashan in Yongzhou has never heard of it, so the first loser in Yongzhou has always heard of it. What's wrong with 3,000 people, we don't have to pay taxes on the household tax of 3,000 people. ”

it!

Mr. Ye suddenly felt that his worldview was about to be subverted.

The workshop of 3,000 people does not pay taxes and does not farm.

Isn't this banditry? It's a huge bandit den!

It's so close to the city, and you can still get along safely?

What about the state officials and camp guards in Yongzhou? Are they all blind!

He fled in a hurry, for fear of being kidnapped by this group of bandits, and hurriedly ran towards Yongzhou City. This place really subverted his three views.

In winter, there is still farming.

Three thousand people roared outside the city.

And the most terrifying thing, these people who are obviously good citizens don't even pay taxes! No taxes!

"OMG! This...... This is the Yongzhou model? ”

Terrifying!
