What is the morning and evening, that is, not to move the summer tax silk of She County, and then take out a part of the average silver of She County and distribute it to the other five counties, so that the burden of She County will be light, and the five counties do not have to bear the additional silk tax. But in fact, this is completely the use of even-level silver to supplement the silk tax, so for the people of the five counties, this is called the morning and the evening and the fourth.

And what is to tear down the east wall to make up the west wall, that is, to move the original messy small taxes such as the tea tax and ship tax in She County, and then subtract a part of the summer tax silk in She County, and use the money collected from those small taxes to offset the reduced part. But in the final analysis, it was the county that reduced some of its taxes.

And Liu Hao and Shi Yuanxi stayed at Wang's house to discuss for a night, and also came up with another plan to demolish the east wall and make up the west wall, that is, to take out a part of the Lijia military silver from Huizhou Mansion to offset the summer tax silk. Now that they have a plan anyway, even if it's just a tall man among the short, let alone perfect, it's a helpless compromise, but no matter what, they finally have something to explain to their heads. Therefore, even if they found that Deshengmen could not return to Fucheng as soon as it was closed, the two of them stayed at Wang's house for one night, but their mood was much better than before.

After all, no one wants to really drag on in Huizhou Mansion for a month, and when they go back, they will see a mountain of affairs waiting to be disposed of in this mansion! Even if someone is acting for them, it is difficult for them to trust those officials who come from miscellaneous backgrounds as Jinshi.

Of course, since these two people came, Wang Fulin had to mention it, and suggested that the two of them could visit Xue Xianzun, who was recuperating from illness in Shexian County, and take the opportunity to understand the situation. But since Liu Hao and Shi Yuanxi were temporarily seconded to Huizhou Mansion, the officials of the six counties of one government have basically seen it, only Xue Chao, the first county of Huizhou, has not seen it, and I heard that Xue Chao is actually sick at this juncture, and even the responsibility of the county order is Yu County's act. They have long been marked in their hearts as hiding from things and not taking responsibility. When they left Wang's house early the next morning, although the back door of the county magistrate's office was in front of them, the two of them summed it up and still didn't go.

Anyway, they were transferred by Yao Huizu, the prefect of Huizhou, and they were of the same grade as Xue Chao, but they were not in the same category. Even if they are fellow villagers of Zhang Siwei, the third assistant of the cabinet, and Wang Chonggu, the secretary of the Criminal Department, they can't be guilty of scolding this one. After all, what their entourage found out before was that Xue Chao was extremely enthusiastic about the Xia tax silk dispute at the beginning, and the county government immediately planned to make others as scapegoats when they were surrounded by people, and now they are still sick, who is willing to deal with this kind of unauthentic parent official? Not only that, but they who didn't know who to take the cylinder all thought of making a good mention when they came back to play.

Send these two pushers away. Wang Fulin instructed the alert Liu Bo to follow, and when he learned that Shi Yuanxi and Liu Gao went straight through the Desheng Gate into the city, and did not go to the county government to see Xue Chao at all, he knew that with the double protection of Huizhou prefect Yao Huizu and Shi Yuanxi Liu Gao, Xue Chao's county order should not last long.

"I just hope that Shexian County will not have this kind of guy who wants to make money and brush up on his political achievements next time, but refuses to take responsibility."

Wang Fulin muttered to himself, but when he walked into the hall. He saw that Wang Daoyun was already sitting on the Taishi chair in the center waiting for him, and he could only helplessly step forward and explain: "Dad." I couldn't help the two trips before, the Xu family on Doosan Street and the Cheng family in Huangjiawu, how can I say that they are also my elders, and they are talking about the Yinzhuang ticket number, so they can't let the family see me at home, right? ”

Wang Daoyun ignored Wang Fulin's explanation, but said bluntly: "Your uncle and I visited the patriarch of the Qiufeng clan. He took us to visit several families, and finally planned to pass Qiu Feng to one of his uncles and grandmothers, who had been widowed for a long time and had a good character, as his grandson, whose son died before marriage, and wanted a grandson to inherit incense. But as long as you study and improve, you don't have to guard her at home, I have met that old man with your uncle, and he has a good character, which is very good. Although your uncle and I have already agreed, you, the teacher, have to take Qiu Feng to go again. The only thing that is not ideal is that the old man has moved back to his hometown, which is Zhuchuan, Shexian County, and you can decide when you take someone to it. ”

"Zhuchuan is Zhuchuan, and I don't go to Wang Shangning's house to find fault, what can he do with me? Anyway, this time it's really thanks to my father and uncle. ”

"You don't have to look like you're afraid of me, you're not afraid of heaven and earth, and you're afraid of my father? Even your uncle can't control you, let alone me? Wang Daoyun glared at his son fiercely, thinking that he listened for a moment at the door of the study last night, and knew that Wang Fulin was indeed discussing the matter of Xia tax silk with Liu Yuan Shi Yuanxi, he thought about his son's ability, and finally didn't want to say anything more, and said happily, "Your mother and I will go back to Songming Mountain tomorrow, and you will clean up your own mess by yourself." There is only one, we know that Xiaobei's martial arts are good, but you don't want to make your daughter-in-law! ”

Since the second elder wants to go back to his hometown, instead of staring at himself here, of course Wang Fulin agrees to everything, as for the last sentence about Xiaobei, although he said yes, he knew in his heart that with his daughter-in-law's temperament, which is more indefinite than himself, he doesn't support her to think of it by herself, so he can only say sorry to the second elder in his heart. Next, of course, he found Qiu Feng.

Even if he had mentioned this matter to Qiu Feng before leaving Beijing because of Wang Daokun's words, but now that he had really reached the last step of the operation, he was still a little worried about what choice this young man who had experienced twists and turns would make. You must know that the core of Confucianism in these years is that there are parents who are all in the world, emphasizing patriarchal and patriarchal rights, and it is difficult to ensure that Qiu Feng's reading brain is rigid, and he regrets his foolish filial piety, and wants to recognize his parents who sold him and used him to make money for the family. If that's the case, he doesn't have much to say, it's a big deal to stop meddling in the future.

After a long silence, Qiu Feng suddenly knelt down. After kowtowing three times, he said word by word: "For so many years, if it weren't for the teacher, I wouldn't have known how many big mistakes I made, and I don't know if I could live." Whether it's this or anything else in the future, I will listen to the teacher. It's just that the teacher has helped me a lot, and I just hope that after I have a grandmother, I won't spend the teacher's money all the time. I can help and study at the Green Field Book Garden, and Shopkeeper Ye also promised to give me the same salary as other helpers. After the next annual exam, I have the confidence that I can be promoted to a wide range of students, and when I become a student in the future, I will be able to supplement my grandmother even more. ”

"Good. Good! Wang Fulin breathed a sigh of relief. Since his rebirth, he has not been able to confide in others about his origins, so he has to retreat to the next best thing, and spare no effort to find or cultivate people with similar values to himself, which seems to be fruitful now. He reached out and lifted the man up. Only then did he say with a smile, "You can choose your own path in the future, even if you can't get all the way to Jinshi, with a fame on you, it will be much easier to do anything." There is not only one way in the world, and Xin'an Lu Daxia is the best example. You go back and pack up, and we'll leave for Zhuchuan in the next two days. ”

Wang Daoyun went back, but after all, it was he and Wu Tianbao who went to Zhangluo together, so Wu Tianbao rushed over from the south mountain of Yanzhen. Responsible for leading the way to Zhuchuan. As Wang Fulin's uncle, he is a warm-hearted and honest person, and now he can't be happier to see his nephew Wang Fulin getting more and more promising. However, I knew that what I was going to do today was a very serious business, but I saw that Wang Fulin's lineup of peers included Qiu Feng, as well as Jinbao and Ye Xiaopang, and even Xiaobei went to join in the fun. The cold weather forcibly created a lineup of the whole family to go out, and he was really angry and funny.

Merely. He just muttered in his heart, seeing a large group of people giggling, of course he wouldn't say anything bad about the scenery.

Because at the end of the Sui Dynasty, Wang Hua, the Duke of Yueguo, once occupied Shezhou and other six states, and then surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, sealed Xuancheng as the founding duke, and went to the Zhu State. The governor of the six states, and Wang Hua gave birth to eight sons, these eight sons multiplied in Shezhou, so now the Huizhou Mansion, also known as Xin'an County, has always been known as ten surnames and nine Wang. Among them, She County is more famous. Moreover, there are sixteen branches of the Wang clan who live together, and in the early years, it was Wang Shangning's Zhuchuan Wang clan who was prominent, but now in recent years, because of Wang Daokun's resurgence, the Songmingshan Wang clan has the upper hand.

And although Wang Fulin said that he had been right with the Zhuchuan Wang, he was also on the way to Zhuchuan this time, and only then did he learn from Wu Tianbao's mouth that in fact, there are two Wang's in this vicinity, one is the Zhukou Wang's and the other is the Zhuchuan Wang's. Just like these two words, it is often referred to as Zhuchuankou, but it is actually in a village. Coincidentally, the ancestors of these two Wang clans did not live here in the first place, but they did not come from one place, they all migrated, and tracing back to their roots, they were all from the same place.

Zhukou Wang's originated from Yixian Huangpi Wang You's family out of the Yin clan in Shangli, Shedong, his son Wang Tianlu moved to Zhuchuankou, is the ancestor of the Zhukou Wang clan, there are many descendants but not prominent, there are donors, there are donations to get the crown and glory, in addition to the gentry, the most is the festival woman filial son. The Zhuchuan Wang clan originated from Wang Yuanlong, who came out of Xiuning to Zhengcun in Shexi, and Wang Yuanlong's great-grandson Wang Sen moved to Zhuchuan and became the ancestor of the Zhuchuan Wang clan. Before Wang Shangning, there were petty officials such as county officials in the clan, or the fictitious title of the imperial court, until Wang Shangning came out of the rank of Sanpin, which was developed.

From this point of view, the Zhuchuan Wang clan and the Songming Mountain Wang clan are indeed somewhat similar, that is, because of one person, and there is actually a big distance between those who have often come and gone out of Shiju for many years. But the difference is that the Wang family of Songming Mountain because Wang Fu Lin won the jinshi, and the Jinbao at the bottom won the head of the case at a young age, so it seems that there are successors, in contrast, the Wang family of Zhuchuan is a little declining because of Wang Shangning's long leisure. Originally, when the Xia tax silk dispute was in the past, Wang Shangning led the Junping faction to set off a lot of momentum, but unexpectedly, Wuyuan Xiuning was in chaos, Xue Chao was sick, and Shuai Jiamo disappeared, how could Wang Shangning not know that the general trend had gone?

"In other words, this time, the Zhuchuan Wang clan should not be looking for trouble again." Xiaobei raised his eyebrows, but looked at Qiu Feng and said, "However, if Qiu Feng's old grandmother is willing, she might as well take it to Shexian City, or Songming Mountain to live, first, to have a companion, and secondly, there is no need to live here alone and no one will take care of it, and if you are not good, you will be bullied." ”

"My brother-in-law and I told her the same thing." Wu Tianbao smiled bitterly, and was also a little helpless, "The Qiu clan is originally a small clan in She County, there are few families in the clan, there are many people who forget their righteousness when they see profit, and there are few people who know etiquette, righteousness and shame, just such a festival woman who has no children under her knees, she can't tolerate it, and some people are trying to rob her property, so she forced people back to her parents' house in a fit of anger." If it is another family, it will be at her age, and after decades of observance of festivals, it is also a matter of glory to the ancestors, but they don't have that foresight, even the patriarch, who has not put much effort into maintaining this widow before. Because of this, this Qiu Cheng clan was very wary at first when he heard that we were going to give her a step-son, and when he heard that he was a student of Shuangmu, he proposed to let us take Qiu Feng to show her. ”

"Speaking of which, it turns out that my brother-in-law has a good reputation!" Ye Xiaopang suddenly smiled, reached out and pulled the reins of Qiu Feng's mount, and pulled Qiu Feng, who wanted to listen but didn't dare to listen, but said with confidence, "Like him, which one is not rushing to ask for it?" Cheap old man! ”

"What is cheap or not, at a young age, don't be such a philistine." Wang Fulin glared at the little fat man, and saw that Ye Xiaopang immediately stopped talking, he looked back on the way he came, and thought that this road was full of mountain roads over mountains and mountains, fortunately, Wu Tianbao led the way, and he brought enough entourage, otherwise let him come directly, it was really blind, he couldn't help but sigh.

Don't look at the wealth of Huizhou businessmen and the world's fame, it's not because the geographical conditions of Huizhou Mansion are too bad, otherwise just in terms of taxation, how could Huizhou Mansion rank at the bottom of the entire Nanzhili, only a few better than a few mansions such as Fengyang? In Huizhou, you have to go over mountains and mountains everywhere. For example, Songming Mountain is thirty miles west of the county seat, and Zhuchuan is thirty miles east of the county seat. If he hadn't started from the county seat today, he could still ride a horse on this mountain road, and he would probably have to sleep in the barren mountains and mountains.

Wang Daoyun and Wu Tianbao once came to visit the Qiu Cheng family, living in Zhuchuankou, which is commonly known as Zhukou, but Wang Fulin took his family to follow Wu Tianbao all the way, and he found that he thought he was visiting a small village, but it turned out that it was a large village much larger than Songming Mountain, and it was not inferior to the rich Xixinan, and this village still has a large area of city walls! When he passed through a gate that did not look like the village gate at all, and saw the ancient eup of Yuanye written on it, he finally remembered where he had seen the name of Zhukou.

That was seen in the Huizhou Mansion Chronicles before, and the ancient county of Yuye in the Tang Dynasty was in this Zhukou.

Wu Tianbao was here last time, and he was familiar with the way and led the way. He deliberately took everyone around in front of a Cheng ancestral hall, pointing to the very grand ancestral hall and smiling: "Shuangmu, do you see it, this is the only one in our Huizhou Mansion, it is said that the ancestral hall was renovated with the county government of the Tang Dynasty." Qiu Cheng's is the daughter of the Cheng family, huh? ”

found that his uncle's gushing introduction suddenly stopped, and Wang Fulin followed his gaze and looked forward, and saw the old woman with a white bun, a straight waist, a serious face, and even a little meticulous walking posture. Although it was only the first time he had met in person, he was a little skeptical of his father and uncle's judgment. This old woman is a very stereotypical person at first glance, is she really suitable to be Qiu Feng's nominal grandmother? You won't find fault every day, will you?

PS: It can be seen that the heirs who have entered the family may not all have the same surname as their wives...... The first shift, there will be a night (to be continued.) )
