The so-called production and grain storage was a common phenomenon in the ancient Ming Dynasty. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info There are landlords who buy ** land, and after paying the silver, the land deed will be transferred, but they don't care about the fish scale book, and when the government collects taxes, it will still find the original owner of the land, and some hateful landlords, specifically colluding with household officials to harm the small people to avoid taxes, which is "production and grain storage".

With the consent of the team leader, Liu Yuanshan went to the backyard with the fish scale book, found Liu and put the things in front of her, and then told the things and interests before and after.

Liu Shi's anger trembled, his face was a little pale, and he said, "He is bullying!" ”

"It's bullying!" Liu Yanran stomped her feet, but there was nothing she could do.

"What to do?" Liu said: "The tax of ten acres of land can get a lot of grain!" ”

The standard of taxation in the Ming Dynasty, in addition to the land tax, there is also additional levy, as well as consumption levy, in addition, there are liao salary, practice salary, miscellaneous and miscellaneous plus a piece, ten acres of land to say less also three stone rice.

The Liu family went out of the house, and now the rice and noodles are all sold in the market, and the family has a large population, although there are more than a dozen taels of silver, but the house has spent a lot together, and the Liu family doesn't know how to do it.

"Why don't I go talk to your grandmother?" Liu finally hardened his bones and said to Liu Yuanshan.

Liu Yuanshan knew his mother's temperament, even if he sent her to the old house, he couldn't say anything, maybe he would have to be scolded by the old lady, so it was impossible for his mother to come forward.

"I'll go!" Liu Yuanshan said: "He is my grandmother and my uncle, once or twice, we can let them, we can bear it, but we can't always be like this, everything has to have a degree." ”

The last time the Dong family instigated the old Gan family to come to find trouble, Liu Yuanshan kept it in his heart and didn't say it, plus this time, he felt that he should talk to the Dong family and the uncle, it can be said to be a showdown, it can also be said to be a warning.

Of course, before he went, he decided to pay his taxes first.

"It's the last thing to do for you!" Liu Yuanshan snorted coldly, took out almost the last bit of savings in his family, and paid taxes.

"Yo, this feeling is good!" The head of the team smiled, shook the 1,400 copper coins in his hand, and said, "If we are all as happy as little brothers, our affairs will be much easier." After speaking, Liu Yuanshan was issued a receipt equivalent to the future generations, and walked away.

Liu Yuanshan took the receipt in his hand with a gloomy face, and shouted to the house next to him: "Liu Da, come out with me!" So he took Liu Da out with him, preparing to talk to them at the old mansion.

Outside the door, the wind is very strong, but the snow is not very urgent, a small hill, some places are covered with a white layer of snow, and some places are still exposed a large area of black and red earth, but the road down the mountain is quite slippery.

Liu Yanran ran out of the inner courtyard, handed a green paper umbrella in her hand to Liu Yuanshan and said, "Mother let me tell you, be careful all the way, the road is too slippery." ”

"Yes, it's okay!" Liu Yuanshan held up an umbrella, and his thin and short figure quickly blended into the mountains, and with the sparse light snow and gusts of north wind, it seemed to be walking into a painting.

The path is winding, the dry grass is swaying, the wind blows the dead trees along the way, the branches click, and it is a lonely mountain snow scene, but unfortunately the snow is still too small, and the meaning is not far enough.

"Knock on the door!"

Coming to the familiar door, looking at the pool of stagnant water next to it, Liu Da began to knock on the door, and after a while, Da Lang opened the door, revealing a round head.

"Ah, Saburo, why are you here?" Da Lang said in surprise.

Liu Yuanshan pushed Da Lang away, took Liu Dazhi into the upper room of the old mansion, and saw that Dong was sitting in the main room talking to Guo, he had a gloomy face, and gave Dong a salute and shouted: "Milk!" ”

Dong's face instantly darkened, and he muttered: "I don't dare to be this milk!" ”

Liu Yuanshan put the tax payment voucher in his hand in front of Dong, Dong's body suddenly shook as if he had been bitten by a scorpion, it was obvious that although she didn't know how to read, she also knew what this thing was for. Naturally, she also understood Liu Yuanshan's intention.

In Liu Yuanshan's opinion, this action is a thief's heart.

"What is this?" Dong pretended to pick up the paper, looked at it and put it on the table.

"Auntie!" Liu Yuanshan ignored Dong's self-directed and self-acting, looked directly at Guo and said, "I have something to discuss with my uncle, and I would like to ask you to invite your uncle out." ”

Guo Shi looked at his mother-in-law's face, didn't figure out what she meant, and didn't know whether to call Liu Xiaozhong for a while.

Liu Yuanshan looked at Da Lang and said with a smile: "Da Lang, you go and call Uncle to come over, I have something important to discuss with him, and I will ask Liu Da to bring you candy to eat when I go back." ”

"Howler!" Da Lang staggered to the east wing, and called Liu Xiaozhong out in less than thirty seconds.

"Yo, this is, San Lang is here!" Liu Xiaozhong smiled and looked like a dignified elder, and put the scroll he was carrying on the table in the main room, and he didn't know if he was really reading or holding the book as if he was just now.

"Uncle!" Liu Yuanshan bowed, took the voucher to Liu Xiaozhong and said, "Do you know what this thing is?" ”

"This!" Liu Xiaozhong was shocked and said, "Isn't this a voucher for the county households to pay taxes?" As he spoke, his face became a little abnormal.

"yes!" Liu Yuanshan said: "Uncle, I'm surprised, when did the land of this old mansion come to my name, didn't we say it well when we split up, we went out of the house, why did you change the fish scale book to my name?" ”

Liu Xiaozhong did something wrong, and he was a little speechless.

Liu Yuanshan continued: "Uncle, is this what a scholar should do? ”

Dong couldn't bear it anymore, and said with a dark face: "What's the matter, this one by one, I raised you so big, your wings are stiff, you have money, you didn't say filial piety to me, pay a tax to use a few dollars, and give me a lot of care." I'm still not an old man, and you're still not the children and grandchildren of the old Liu family? ”

"Milk, this thing is immoral, I really don't know whether I should pay this tax or not. Why don't I call Li Zheng and the villagers over and ask them to give us a review? Liu Yuanshan sneered.

At that time, under the witness of the whole village, they were separated from the household, which also meant that they did not have the obligation to fulfill their filial piety. Now the Dong family is indeed a bit vexatious about these human affairs.

"What's up!" Dong naturally refused to admit defeat: "You little rabbit cub, your wings are stiff, don't you, you call your mother over, I think she dares to say this to me?" ”

"Humph!" Liu Yuanshan didn't come over today to reason with this family, so he didn't have any intention of breaking with the Dong family one by one, just looked at the Dong family and said coldly: "Milk, I have a mirror in my heart about the old Gan's family going to the temple to make a big fuss, but as a junior, I will let you have three points." ”

looked at Liu Xiaozhong again: "Today's tax, my little nephew also paid in full, as a nephew, I respect you and love you, but I am also benevolent and righteous." Liu Yuanshan spoke loudly: "The past is in the past, I don't want to pursue it, but it doesn't mean that I have suffered this dumb loss." From now on, your old Liu family and our mother will return to the bridge and return to the road, I, Liu Yuanshan, don't want to take advantage of you, and you don't treat me as two hundred and five. ”

"Especially you, uncle!" Liu Yuanshan's eyes were calm and terrifying: "Use your cleverness in reading, maybe you can be a talent next year, if you continue to calculate our family, I will let you know what it means to be in pain." ”

"Bang!" Liu Yuanshan slapped the table fiercely, turned around and left, and said loudly: "Uncle, I advise you to change the fish scale book, don't miss your fame and future!" ”

Seeing that Liu Yuanshan turned around and was about to leave, Da Lang was anxious, followed behind and said, "San Lang, sugar, where is sugar?" ”

"Get back, faceless bear!" Liu Xiaozhong scolded Da Lang loudly.

Da Lang was stunned in disbelief, looking at the half-open wooden door and the bleak wind and snow outside the door, and froze.
