Chapter 158: Serial Slaps
Anshun County.
As the only way from Guiyang to Yunnan, the retreating Dian army and the Guizhou army looted this place a little when passing through Anshun, resulting in many places in the county now becoming a mess, and there is even a trace of green smoke on the roofs of many houses. However, while the people of Anshun were repairing their houses, a group of people surrounded the gate of the county government...
Of course, they didn't want to besiege the Anshun County Office, they just enclosed a semicircle on the notice board at the gate of the County Office.
"Lao Li, what are you looking at here?" A person who was repairing the roof saw so many people surrounding the gate of the county government, and patted an acquaintance on the shoulder with some curiosity after coming over.
"Don't make noise, don't make noise, this is the notice just posted by the county government, and Zhao Xiucai is explaining it above." A little impatiently, he slapped off his palms and asked Lao Li's middle-aged man to speak.
"Zhao Xiucai?" Now that the Manchu Qing Dynasty has perished, it is natural that showing talents and lifting people is not very valuable, but out of respect for the scholars, he still obediently closed his mouth.
At this time, a young man in his 20s, known as Zhao Xiucai, was standing at the entrance of the yamen explaining the notice behind him.
“……… To put it simply, we don't need to pay taxes when we farm in the future, and those who have tenants at home to help with farming, as long as they are willing to reduce the tenants' rent to 30 percent of the land, they can also enjoy the tax exemption policy..."Speaking of this, looking at the Anshun people below who were silent at first, and then all cheered, Zhao Xiucai smiled bitterly. "Signature: Yan Guang, the governor of Sichuan military and political axes, why does Guizhou's policy need to be promulgated by the governor of Sichuan? It seems that our Zhang Dudu is really just a puppet..."
Not only Zhao Xiucai thought so, but also the gentry around him who knew the content of the notice, and even the county magistrate who was slumped in a chair in the county office. It's just that even if they are not willing to be controlled by a person from another province in Guizhou, there is no way, after all, there are now 20,000 Sichuan troops stationed in Guizhou, even if 10,000 of them return to Sichuan for rest, but there are still as many as 10,000 Sichuan troops stationed in Guizhou.
You must know that before the outbreak of the Xinhai Revolution, there was only one new army of more than 2,000 in the whole of Guizhou...
"Don't be sad about this, my lord, after all, the position of the governor is still held by our Qianren..."Seeing that the county magistrate looked weak, the master on the side stepped forward to persuade.
"Alas..."Hearing what the master said, the county magistrate could only accept his fate with a wry smile.
When they learned that the post of governor was held by Zhang Bailin, the gentry and bureaucracy in Guizhou and the provisional political axe in Nanjing were still very happy. It was only when they saw that almost all of the main positions in Guizhou were held by Sichuan people, that they found that Guizhou had essentially become Yanguang's territory.
It's just that everyone didn't react excessively to this, and even many Guizhou gentry and officials of the temporary political axe thought that Yan Guang's approach was very good. After all, there is no free lunch in the world, they still understand such a simple truth, and letting a prestigious Guizhou person be the governor of Guizhou has preserved dignity to a certain extent.
It's just that just when everyone was expressing their appreciation for Yan Guang, this policy of exempting them from land tax was like a set of "serial slaps", slapping their faces like monkey butts...
There is nothing wrong with the tax exemption policy itself, the problem is with the people who issued it...
Sichuan Governor Yan Guang...
These 6 words actually appeared on the official notice in Guizhou, what is Zhang Bailin used for? Is it just a puppet governor who is not even allowed to be stamped?
Of course, these are only those who have status will think, for ordinary people in Guizhou, the Yan Du Governor who is far away in Chengdu is like a bodhisattva, especially those families who have just suffered from the war, they are still worried about their livelihood this year, and some are even thinking about selling their sons and daughters, and now they don't need to sell them...

While the gentry and bureaucrats of the provisional government axe in Guizhou were still indignant at Yan Guang's slap in the face, Yan Guang himself was happily basking in the sun in the garden of the Governor's Mansion. Of course, in addition to the fragrance of flowers in the garden and the gentle sunshine, what makes Yan Guang happy is the tax exemption policy that he personally stamped.
On the notice issued by the Guizhou Governor's Office, signing the name of the Governor of Sichuan is already a slap in the face of Chi Guoguo, but for Yan Guang, this is what he must do, because as long as he does this, he can defuse a time bomb that has always been tied to him.
A question of identity...
Although Zhang Peijue's Shu military political axe has been solved, because the issue of tax exemption policy has also been supported by almost all the Sichuan people, the fundamental surname that he is not from Sichuan has still not been solved. And as long as this problem is not solved, then this time bomb on his body is still counting...
You know, there has never been a shortage of ambitious people in this world...
However, since he has mastered the two provinces of Sichuan and Guizhou, this problem on Yan Guang can be regarded as a perfect solution.
"Qiu also heard that there are people who have a country and a family, and they do not suffer from widowhood but suffer from inequality..."
Don't be afraid of being less, as long as everyone shares the same amount, don't be afraid of being poor, as long as everyone earns the same amount.
This sentence is also true for the gentry and common people in Sichuan. If the governors of almost every province in the world are from other provinces, then they naturally have no opinion that their governors are from other provinces. But what if the governors of their own provinces are from other provinces, and almost all of the other provinces are locals?
In a short period of time, Yan Guang's position is of course as stable as Mount Tai, but what if it is a long time? The human heart is unpredictable...
But what if Yan Guang suddenly changed from a governor who only controlled one province to a governor who controlled two, three, or even four or five provinces? Then this problem can be solved perfectly. Because for ordinary people, the important thing is not how they are, but that others are the same as themselves, and this truth is true even if it is placed all over the world...
Yan Guang signed his name on the official notice issued by the Guizhou Governor's Office in order to tell the world that although Zhang Bailin was the governor of Guizhou, he was the actual master of the two provinces. As long as this goal can be achieved, it doesn't matter if Yan Guang offends the gentry and the officials of the temporary political axe in Guizhou for this...
"Anyway, I finally dismantled the bomb..."After pouring himself a glass of juice, Yan Guang savored it...
