Chapter 0098, a nest of snakes and rats

What happened to Li Yang?

Why did he make him so angry?

Without waiting for Fan to ask carefully, the little guy is like shaking beans, chattering and chatting.

He followed the large army all the way to Yazhou City in advance, and the soldiers must have been obediently stationed in a forest outside the city, but Li Yang couldn't stand the suffering, so he planned to take Fan Meng into the city to enjoy the blessings.

But what they didn't expect was that Yazhou City was not as peaceful as they imagined, and the city tax alone was extorted two taels of silver.

This is not counting, after entering the city, just found the inn, and before I had time to live in it, there was a government messenger to collect taxes. said what kind of health tax, security tax, and extorted two taels alive.

Fortunately, Li Yang has a lot of silver on him, and there is a hundred taels of redemption tickets, although he is not very comfortable, but in order to establish a tall and handsome image in front of the little girl, he never bargains for as much as people want.

As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of thieves. Li Yang was generous, and he really let people with a heart stare at him.

Two days ago, when he and Fan Meng were shopping for something, they were hit by an old man, he didn't fall, the old man fell back, and he lay on the ground and pretended to be dead, and he couldn't get up.

As a modern person who has traveled over, he is no longer surprised by this scene, and he didn't think much about it, and took out five taels of silver from his arms and gave it to the old man, which can be regarded as a ruin and disaster.

But Li Yang never thought that as soon as the money was given, it would be a bad thing, and the old man accepted the money unceremoniously, but he didn't mean to give up, and continued to cry.

Soon, a strong man who claimed to be the old man's son ran over, and as soon as he came, he was asked to pay a hundred taels, and if he didn't give it, he would report to the official.

No matter how stupid Li Yang is, he understands that he is being remembered, but when he thinks that Fan Jinyan is the new master of Yazhou, he is not afraid, and he generously followed the strong man to the Zhizhou Yamen.

Because the previous governor died violently in office, when there was no chief official, it was Tongzhi and Tongju who managed the affairs of Yazhou.

After Li Yang and his party arrived at the Yamen, the trial was a sentence from the six grades.

When he learned that Li Yang was a foreigner, he indiscriminately sentenced Li Yang to pay compensation of 100 taels of silver. This is not over, there is still a fee of ten taels.

Li Yang knew that it would be bad to mention Fan Jinyan, and wanted to wait for the master to come and take revenge, so he happily paid the court fee.

But when I accompanied the money, I got on fire again, and I didn't want to redeem the ticket, just cash.

Li Yang endured it and went to the money bank to exchange silver, but the money bank told him that the 100 taels could only be exchanged for 50 taels.

Li Yang was furious, isn't this naked blackmail?

At this time, the commandos in the city contacted him and asked him to be patient for the time being, and wait for Fan Jinyan to come.

Since then, Li Yang has been looking forward to it at the city gate every day, and now that he is coming, can he not be excited?

"You'll have to avenge me! Tynyima is a bully. Li Yang said with a sad face.

Fan Jinyan glanced at him, but he also mentioned caution, it was obvious that this Yazhou City was not as simple as he imagined, and if he wanted to sit in this position, he would have to waste a lot of effort.

Fan Jinyan did not rush into the city, but asked Li Yang to enter the city and call the commandos out, he wanted to know all the information about Yazhou City, so as not to blindly break in, but fall into the trap of others.

……

The situation investigated by the commandos was almost exactly the same as what Fan Jinyan thought, and the cause of death of the former governor of Yazhou was very strange, he was drunk and hit the door frame and died.

Tongzhi Li Tong and Cheng Zhou were both picked up by the prefect He Yi, and both of them were local wealthy gentry. Nearly ninety percent of the land in Yazhou is under the names of the two people, and there is also a group of idlers under their hands, who specialize in stealing chickens and dogs and bullying the market.

The most strange thing is that they also strictly prohibit people from going to the sea to fish and do business, and once they are discovered, they will be taken into custody and killed.

Fan Jinyan wondered, the Ming Dynasty had already lifted the sea ban during the Longqing period, what did this group of people want to do?

The common people are next to the sea, but they can't go to the sea, and they have no land to plant, so they can only choose to be tenants for the gentry's family, and they are exploited and humiliated.

Isn't there anyone who resists?

In fact, the team members learned that there is a pirate nicknamed Sea Whale in the South China Sea, and he and his pirates are all natives of Yazhou, but they were forced to have no way to live, so they ran to the sea to make a living, and have been active in the South China Seas. I heard that I come back from time to time to send some food money or something to my hometown.

Because the information was incomplete, Fan Jinyan could not determine all the details of Li Tong and Cheng Xuan.

It can only be counted as one step at a time.

Originally, Fan Jinyan planned to enter the city in a low-key manner, but he was afraid that he would not be able to shake the scene if he had fewer people, so he decided to enter the city with the whole army and take up his post in a high-profile manner.

Hundreds of people in bright armor and armed with murder weapons appeared at the gate of the city, which frightened the tax collectors, if it weren't for Fan Jinyan to reveal his identity, it is estimated that the city gate would have been closed.

The Ming Dynasty has always had the practice of officials not repairing the yamen, although the maintenance of the silver is not less, but the Zhizhou yamen is broken can not be broken anymore, not only the wall cracks a lot, even the gate board is missing a piece, I don't know who stole back to chop wood and burn, only the plaque under the eaves of Yazhou Zhizhou a few words, let people know that this is the official office.

After Fan Jinyan arrived, at the gate of the Zhizhou Yamen, there were already many people from the public gate, and standing at the front were two middle-aged men in green coats and herons, who should be Tongzhi Li Tong and Cheng Guan.

"Dare to ask, but Lord Zhizhou is current? The lower officials knew Li Tong and sentenced Cheng Xuan, and led the people of the state capital to arrest and serve to welcome the adults. ”

"See your Excellency."

After Li Tong finished speaking, the others behind him also bent down and saluted.

After Fan Jinyan accepted this salute as a matter of course, he said with a smile: "Hurry up and excuse me, this official has just arrived in your place, and I will have to rely on my colleagues in the future." ”

"The lord laughed, the lower officials saw that the lord was honored as a state at a young age, and the future is limitless! When the time comes, it will be ...... to have a lot of support from adults."

Li Tong's mouth was like touching honey, and the sycophants didn't stop until he saw that Fan Jinyan was a little impatient, so he stopped and led them into the yamen.

As soon as he entered the yamen, Fan Jinyan, who was about to become the host, was like a guest, listening to Li Tong's introduction to the situation in the house. And Li Tong was like a master, beckoning his subordinates to prepare a banquet, and he didn't submit anything at all.

It wasn't until after the banquet that Fan Jinyan drank tea and said: "Since the official has taken office, Li Tongzhi should prepare for the handover, and the official should familiarize himself with the affairs of Benzhou as soon as possible." ”

"This ......" Li Tong's face changed when he heard this, and he said with some embarrassment: "My lord doesn't know, the handover work is complicated, and it can't be completed in one or two days." Besides, the adults are dusty, and they are tired all the way. The lower official thought that the adults might as well rest for a few days first, appreciate the customs and customs of Yazhou, and wait for the lower officials to be ready, and then it would not be too late to hand over. ”
