Chapter 642: Endgame and Aftermath
"Of course I do...... However, there is no way to do it and sit down. Shuai Jiamo himself also knew how weak this defense was, and his voice was very bitter, "For example, if you are a porter, since you are carrying a burden of several hundred catties, even if you can reduce it by half a catty, it is enough to make him grateful to Dade." Wang Gongzi, the story of the three and the twilight, is it not the same when used on ordinary people? I just wanted to fight, I didn't think it would cause such a serious reaction! I don't know at all now, what will I do in the future? ”
Facing the whole person who was haggard again as Shuai Jiamo when he was injured in Beijing, Wang Fulin was silent for a while, and finally smiled bitterly: "It's not me pouring cold water, you can't stay in Huizhou Mansion at the moment." If you want to go back to your hometown, you can go back to your hometown, and I will subsidize your money. If you don't want to go back to your hometown, go to Hangzhou to be a bookkeeper in my dart bureau, and those righteous men will protect you. I can push Xue Chao back, it's because this person is too despicable and shameless this time, and he is mediocre and greedy, and he is unpopular, but if Yao Fuzun or Feng Guan want to take you, I can't stop it. Let's go, go now. ”
Shuai Jiamo has experienced this kind of day when he has to run away immediately to avoid disasters at every turn, but this time he saw that success was in sight, but he suddenly made such a big twist and turn, and he was extremely disappointed. However, Wang Fulin urgently sent someone to evacuate their family before his house was besieged, and then rejected Xue Chao's order to play cards at the county office, it can be said that he has done his duty, what else can he say?
"I listen to Wang Gongzi." Shuai Jiamo whispered these words, and then added another sentence after a moment of silence. "I'm going to Hangzhou."
That hometown is just a hometown in the hometown. For since childhood in She County. Having spent the longest period of his life here, there is really not much to worry about in his hometown. The language barrier, relatives are like passers-by, especially if he is so embarrassed and slips back in ashes, isn't he a laughing stock sent to the door?
On the day Shuai Jiamo quietly left the city with his family, the county government of Shexian County also changed the principal. Regarding the fact that the county order Xue Chao was not enough to succeed and more than to lose, the prefect Yao Huizu could be said to be angry, and learned that the person vomited blood and fainted. Immediately, on the grounds that Xue Chao was seriously ill, Yu County Cheng was ordered to act as the county government affairs. This Yu Xiancheng, who was originally a prisoner, was suppressed by Xue Chao very badly in the past, and even when he went to welcome Shuai Jiamo back to the city before, it was Master Zhao who came forward, and he didn't have his share, but now he suddenly got such an opportunity, so don't mention it.
Although it is unlikely that you want to change from a county magistrate to a real county magistrate in She County, if this evaluation can go up and after the qualifications are met, there is great hope for the next county magistrate!
Because after Wang Fulin moved from the old house in Songmingshan to the back street of the county. Yu Xiancheng was personally led by Liu Hui to worship the door, so now he has the name of acting. He immediately prepared the gifts and went to Wang's house to thank him, but after knocking on the door, he got a reply that Wang Fulin was not at home, but had already gone to the mansion. Thinking that the current government was cleaning up the mess, he didn't dare to disturb Yao Fuzun with the name of acting just now, so he hoped to leave a gift with a smile on his face, but Jinbao, who answered the door in person, conveyed Wang Fulin's words to him.
"Eryin, my father said that if there are gifts recently, they will not accept them. If Yu Xiancheng comes, let the students bring a word, you just need to be more sympathetic to the people of She County, don't be like Xue Xianzun who listens to and believes partially, is impatient and rash, and almost drives people to death when urging the department. ”
Yu Xiancheng didn't expect that Wang Fulin's words conveyed by his adopted son would be so direct, and he knew in his heart that Xue Chao was afraid that he would be trampled on 10,000 feet this time. But he was so happy, even if the prepared gifts were not accepted, but the mood was very good, and he went back to the county office.
At the same time, Wang Fulin was sitting next to Yao Huizu, the prefect of Huizhou. On both sides of the main seat in the room, under the chairs of sour branches and wood are pedals of the same color, all of which are purchased by Yao Huizu after Duan Chaozong left office. On one side is the government office, a secretary, two wardens, six white-clothed scribes, and a stack of account books. As Shuai Jiamo said in his complaint before, there are a total of nine people in the Yahu House of Huizhou Mansion, but none of them are from She County, the officials are from Wuyuan, the two wardens are one Wuyuan and one Xiuning, and the remaining six belong to five counties. Whether this is a coincidence or something else, all nine of them are tense at this time.
After all, Wu Yuan and Xiu Ning had such a big quarrel, if Fu Zun wanted to use them, even if they were called Tianqu, it would be useless!
"She County people levy silver per penny and five centimeters and four millimeters, field levies eight cents and one millimeter of silver, land collects four cents and seven centimeters of silver per mu, mountains levies three cents and three centimeters of silver per mu, and pond collects eight cents and nine centimeters and seven milli......meters of silver per mu."
The specific measurement method of the tax payment in the six counties was recited by these officials one by one, as if giving people an illusion, that is, the summer tax and autumn grain are levied according to this amount every year, and the amount is extremely meager, but Wang Fulin knows very well that this kind of concise rule is unlikely in any prefecture and county, because it is calculated according to the total amount of taxes and the number of acres of households, but in the entire Huizhou province and six counties, how many rich officials and eunuchs have the privilege of tax exemption and exemption from military service, and how many fields are donated to these well-dressed households?
Moreover, the amount of annual tribute may not be certain, how can it be only such a little?
"Don't read it!" Yao Huizu angrily stopped these officials from reading according to the script, and when he drove them all out, he said to Wang Fulin with a solemn face: "Shiqing, you and I have all declared to the outside world before that we will deal with this Xia tax silk dispute openly and fairly, but the words are out, and this matter will be done after all." You don't want people to poke your backbone and say that you are partial to outsiders, and I don't want any more disputes in the other five counties, since the more than 6,000 taels of silk summer tax sent by She County to the other five counties will cause such a backlash, so what should I do? ”
"This time, Huizhou a government and six counties for a summer tax silk, the public said that the public is reasonable, the mother said that the mother is reasonable, She County said that the lawsuit has been fought for more than 100 years, but the remaining five counties are not convinced, in the final analysis, the amount of summer tax and autumn grain recorded in the Ming Dynasty is only to the government, not to the county. Therefore, the basis is unknown. The Yellow Book of Enlistment was only revised during the Hongzhi period. It hasn't been revised, for decades. So. As Yao Fuzun, the most important thing is to truthfully play this public case, plus a statement, please make up a complete book of enslavement in all the prefectures of the world, list the enslavement of each county, and then one is stored in the official office for archiving, and the other is stored in the school palace for the people to consult, in case there are further enslavement disputes. ”
Wang Fulin directly brought out the complete book of enslavement that he had seen in a museum in later generations. Seeing that Yao Huizu was stunned for a moment, he immediately praised it knowingly, and he knew that Yao Huizu understood what he meant. Such a thing happened in office, naturally it is not glorious, but from this and that, from his own government to the state capitals in the world, in the words of the official, this shows that Yao Huizu, as the prefect of Huizhou, has subjective initiative, constructive ideas, and can prevent micro problems.
Follow. He continued: "And the people are on the verge of rioting, which shows that this public case is difficult to solve by the officials of the Huizhou government alone. The subordinate officials of the Tiaoning State Government and the Taiping Prefecture can be asked to assist in the verification, so that the restlessness in the five counties can be calmed. When the time comes, most of them will only be a general judgment, and the mansion can also be controlled. ”
Seeing that Yao Huizu was a little hesitant, he said softly: "To show justice." ”
After weighing it back and forth, Yao Huizu had no choice but to nod: "Okay, in order to show justice, this mansion will appeal to the top." ”
"Third, how to reassure the people. The rebellion in Xiuning Wuyuan originated from a small number of lawsuits inviting fame, and even more so at the expense of being appalling, such people must be severely punished. I heard that the number of Xiuning's forced donations has reached tens of thousands, which means that even if Xiuning County really sends Xia tax silk, this money was originally enough to offset the ten or eight years of silk in Xiuning County, but now it is unknown because of the traitor's infighting, and the people have taken out the silver and have been deceived. These gangsters should be immediately escorted to the government office, interrogated in public, and if they are students, they should be asked to remove their fame from the great masters, and if they are people, they should be beaten and confiscated into the army, and they will not be spared. As for the money they forcibly donated......"
Wang Fulin paused for a moment, and then said to Yao Huizu: "If you don't have the property of those stick men, you will first return the big ones who were forcibly donated, and then the small people who voluntarily paid the money." This is not because of anything else, because voluntary donations are different from being forcibly donated, one is cheated, and the other is equivalent to being robbed. Of course, it is estimated that the family property of those gangsters is not enough to fill it, but the attitude of the government can at least allow the people to transfer part of the source of their anger to these villains. And I have another thing to tell Yao Fuzun, the theft of the donation box that caused these Xiuning traitors to completely lose their hearts, I know a little clue, it is estimated that nearly 10,000 silver coins can be recovered, and Yao Fuzun has this silver money, and there are more things that can be done in this aftermath. ”
Although Wang Fulin only said that it was a clue and cleverly claimed that the money was hopeful of recovery, Yao Huizu still tasted it. Xiuning Wuyuan made such a big fuss, but he was able to calm down as quickly as possible, Wang Fulin's efforts would never be as easy as he said now, which could be seen from the fact that it was a little inconvenient for him to see Wang Fulin walking. If it wasn't for running back and forth, where was it so coincidental that the rebels on Xiuning's side took those villains in turn, and how could Wu Xuan, the Wuyuan County Commander who was almost robbed, be rescued and sent back to suppress the overall situation?
Especially the previous thing, to put it mildly, those stick gangsters in Xiuning have accumulated countless but have been blackened and eaten by black! As for the money, Wang Fulin can actually just hold it in by himself without making a sound, and he doesn't have to take it out at all, but people generously took it out to him, not to mention that his Yao Huizu's family is already wealthy, even if he is poor and crazy, he won't take this money into his pocket?
This windfall is indeed very suitable to make up for this chaos and use it to brush up on his political achievements!
Yao Huizu glanced at Wang Fulin with a look of gratitude mixed with appreciation, and then said thoughtfully: "But what about the name of this money? ”
"Several famous families such as Cheng Xu Wang Wu Baohuang in Shexian County, as well as those grain merchants in Xiuning who belong to the Huizhou Rice Industry Guild have generously donated money."
Wang Fulin unceremoniously found a very beautiful name for this money, seeing that Yao Hui's ancestors were stunned, he immediately laughed, he knew that the other party was recognized, so he sighed and said: "Back then, in order to enrich the reserve warehouse of She County, I and my father-in-law, who was still the county order at the time, made out a righteous shop, I took out part of the money, and my father-in-law embezzled part of the county government fee, and later, the reserve warehouse was full, and even reduced the county government fee when collecting taxes for two consecutive years, In fact, even if it is a disguised reduction in the file of summer tax silk. This was originally just a temporary measure, and the embezzled public funds and surpluses had been taken back when the previous Xu Xianzun was in office, but unfortunately Xue Xianzun was worried about this stubble when he took office, and directly reached out to Yidian. ”
When Wang Fulin said this, he smiled slightly: "Yao Fuzun, you are an understanding person, and I don't say secret words, in fact, this is nothing more than using the way of making money from merchants to fill the deficit of the county government and taxes, but this is temporary, it cannot be used as a permanent system, let alone on paper, otherwise it will become a permanent system, and the merchants of Huizhou Mansion will never have peace!" Therefore, although I can make money lightly and skillfully with more than 10,000 taels of silver, and I can make big profits without usury, but Yao Fuzun is an innocent and good official in the prime of life, and it is difficult to say the next one, so this time I dare not use this method to fill the deficit of the government. ”
Yao Huizu smiled a little awkwardly. Although Wang Fulin's name as a disaster star is indeed thunderous, he also knows that this young Jinshi is also wealthy, at least the Hui businessmen have taken the lead because of the Yinzhuang ticket number network all over Zhejiang and Nanzhili, and they have made a lot of money, plus the precedent of the private industry and public use of Yidian is still there, he did beat Wang Fulin's idea. But since Wang Fulin blocked the gap, he could only say that he had never thought of such an idea, but asked sincerely.
"Although the Metropolitan Procuratorate has just been rectified by Lord Shoufu, if this money is used for government properties, it will naturally be angrily denounced as competing with the people for profit. Therefore, this money is that the wealthy businessmen of She County and Xiuning saw that the five counties were in chaos and the people were innocently harmed, so they generously donated money to help rebuild. When he said this, Wang Fulin remembered that the main thing that the county town was smashed was Shuai Jiamo's family, and it can be said that She County suffered very little, and this excuse could only be shouted to be good, and he couldn't help but feel sorry in his heart, "As for whether the reconstruction will not use up this money, so it will be used to fill part of this year's summer tax silk, so that this year's She County will reduce a part of the silk, that is another matter." ”
Seeing that Yao Huizu did not object, Wang Fulin continued: "And Fuzun can let the people throw out a few suggestions, such as no longer sending Xia tax silk, but taking a part of the Junping silver of She County and sending it to the first five counties, so that it is obviously impossible to be accepted by the lower head of the plan, and so that the people are in an uproar to discuss, and then report to the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate, saying that the Hui people are still competitive and contentious, such as Chengping today, and the silk sent by She County is even higher than that of Zhejiang Buzheng Sitong Province, which is unreasonable, please be lenient and collect less silk, if you are worried about the name, It can be filled with miscellaneous items such as Shexian ship tax, tea tax, ancestral rent, wheat and rice surplus, and husband's silver. Xiuning Wuyuan almost made such a big fuss this time, and the silk is still the only county every year, but because of this, one or two thousand less is levied, and the east wall is demolished to make up the west wall, and the imperial court may be able to agree. ”
