In the early morning of the next day, Li Yanqing came out of the quilt and was ready to meet the Liang family's revenge. The so-called dog beating looks at the owner, and he cleaned up the housekeeper of the Liang family, and it is impossible for the Liang family to not be outstanding. But what can he do with himself? Anyway, he also wants to open it, people die face to the sky, and they will not die for thousands of years.

Guangdong is a place where the people are fierce, but so what? Assaulting the court officials, he can't afford this responsibility even the Liang family. Especially the matter of Xiangshan autonomy, the noise is not small, it is nothing more than a group of small shrimp charging in front, and the local government is in line with more than one thing is better than less, and there are groups of monkeys playing monkey tricks on the left and right, and they are too lazy to pay attention to it. If a local clan like the Liang family comes in, the nature of the matter will change. If the magistrate's information on his political achievements is more serious and it becomes a rebellion, then the matter will be out of control.

Therefore, the probability of the Liang family directly coming forward to use force is not high, of course, it is not excluded that instructing people to knock on the stick and throw black bricks and the like, but in this way, it is easy to make things bigger, and it is difficult to end up with the intervention of the imperial court, and secondly, it is too small and childish, which does not meet the value of a rich man. Besides, as long as you are more careful in the past few days, when Liu Yeqing comes, with this female bodyguard in charge, you may not be afraid of them.

Logically speaking, the biggest possibility of this kind of local tyrant is to use the power of the government to pick up his own seal. But is the seal handle in Xiangshan County very attractive? He has basically decided now that Lin Shouzheng knew that this was a pit, so he was so good at talking that day. Finally, there is a black pot, no matter whether you are from a person or a scholar, as long as the officials are willing to send you, it will be the gospel of my Guangdong.

I have been delayed for so long halfway, but the government did not send a Zuo Er down to temporarily take over the affairs of Xiangshan County, which also shows that the government also knows that this is a hot potato, and no one is willing to take over. If you don't do it, will others do it? Besides, the worst ending is nothing more than taking Liu Yeqing and talking about books, and it may not really starve to death.

The ancients said that he was born after death, he had no psychological pressure, and he was full of energy, and the officials saw it, and secretly admired that this new county order was indeed bold, offending the local heroes, but he was not afraid. After going to the church, he instructed the six-room scribe to bring the white book of the county.

The tax collection standard of the Ming Dynasty is based on the yellow book handed over to the Ministry of Households, but the yellow book of this year is no longer very reliable. When compiling the booklet, the bookkeepers and the officials worked together to alter and fabricate it, making the yellow book unrecognizable, and when the real tax was collected, it was by relying on the real account book in their hands, and this real account book was the white book.

Li Yanqing checked the booklet, and now there are about 1,500 hectares of land in Xiangshan County, and the registered tax payment is close to 50,000 yuan, and the annual grain tax is more than 20,000 stones.

As for the present, it's not that there is no way to get money. He instructed his subordinates: "If you stay in the yamen all day and gather people to gamble, how many taels of silver can you earn?" Xiangshan is full of gold, but you refuse to bow your heads to pick it, don't you deserve to be poor? When I came yesterday, I saw a lot of shops on the streets, so why didn't you go and collect the money from the stalls? Is there any collusion with them, deliberately buying and selling? Now listen to my orders, go to the street to collect money for me, collect it from house to house, and take things if you don't have money, and the official will come back and give you credit. ”

Those officials, you look at me, I look at you, but they are a little embarrassed. An old official stepped forward and said: "If you go back to the eldest master, it's not that the little ones don't go, but we really don't dare to go." The local people are fierce, and many shops are related to a few families in Xiangshan, and collecting their taxes is afraid that it will lead the people to fight with force. There are too few of our people, and I am afraid that if we fight, we will not be opponents. Especially now on the street, the Xiangshan Autonomous Alliance is the main culprit, rushing to collect taxes with us, and those merchants have handed over the protection money to them, but they refuse to hand it over to us. These people are still clamoring to occupy Xiangshan, and as soon as we collect taxes now, it is equivalent to grabbing food from them, and these people are afraid that we will be endless. When the time comes, there will be trouble, and your life will not be peaceful. ”

"They're not done with us? The official is still not finished with them. A group of Diao people actually want to occupy Xiangshan, is this going against the sky? If you are injured, the official will give him a sum of money and medicine, and if you don't want to go, it's easy, and don't think about taking money and food from me in the future. Our yamen is also poor, there is no way, my predecessor left me so much famine, I don't collect taxes, how can I live? What are you still doing? Don't you want money and food? Go to a few more people, tear up all the mess on the Bazi wall, and don't leave a single one. ”

These officials had just received a month's worth of money and grain yesterday, and when they heard that the magistrate would not give them money, they were also a little afraid, so they had to go out and collect taxes with the audacity. Li Yanqing called Zhang Yuande and Li Keshi again. "How much silver did we borrow before and after the construction of Confucianism? Just yesterday there was a Liang family manager who asked for debts, but if all the gentry in this place came to ask for debts, this matter would not be easy to do. ”

"Sir, didn't the villain tell you yesterday, don't ask who your creditor is in this county, you have to ask who is not your creditor first. This Confucianism is said to be cultivated bigger, better, to cultivate the style, to cultivate the level, to cultivate the grade, so as to reflect the heart of the people of Xiangshan to learn, in order to have the blessing of Emperor Wenchang, let me Xiangshan have a few more talents. At that time, all the members of the major government came out, and raised more than 2,700 taels of silver before and after. It's just that until now, we haven't seen the shadow of Confucianism, and the silver has disappeared. This matter is really a trouble in our county, even if we collect all the taxes and pay off the debt, I am afraid it will not be enough. ”

In a small place like Xiangshan, 1,700 taels of silver can definitely be counted as an astronomical amount. Coupled with the previous debts, it adds up to almost 5,000 debts. Such a large sum of money, if it was all spent by Cai Jiande, the magistrate, he would not believe it even if he killed Li Yanqing. Even if he has this heart, he doesn't have the strength, and he has too much money to spend. Could it be that the surviving person of Master Cai took the money away?

If he hadn't taken care of Liu Yeqing in the inn, he might have been able to bump into the surviving person, with his own experience, the money was really on her, how could she get a share. Now people go to empty houses, there is no place to find people, so many deficits, like a mountain pressing on their heads, how much tax must be collected before the money can be recovered.

He originally thought that when the officials went out, eighty percent of them would suffer losses. But it doesn't matter, as long as the official is beaten, he can report to the Guangzhou government, directly make this matter bigger, and then pull Jinyiwei into the water, not afraid of completely nailing the Xiangshan Autonomous Alliance.

But I didn't expect that these officials were actually proficient in the art of war, knew that their support was insufficient, and their food and salary were insufficient, so they did not dare to go on an expedition. Only swept the two streets near the Yamen, and took advantage of the fact that the Xiangshan Autonomous Alliance did not react, so it quickly withdrew its troops and won a complete victory.

When I returned to Yamen to check the materials, I collected a lot of copper coins and broken silver horns, and when I got together, there were more than five taels of silver, as well as dozens of pieces of porcelain, some Japanese folding fans, bronze ware, plus half a catty of tea, three old hens, sixty-seven eggs, a basket of fruits, and two home-woven homespun cloths. However, these servants were basically intact, and only two people were spat on by the old farmer who sold chickens, which was not much damage, and they couldn't even pay for the soup and medicine.

"Yes, yes, it's off to a good start. Although the county has not been recovered, it is also a war achievement to recover two streets first. A few of you have done a good job, the official commends you, the three hens will be stewed and eaten in a while, and you brothers, you can share more meat to eat. In the future, the messenger will have to be so appropriate, so that we can have income, otherwise will everyone drink the northwest wind? Also, you must remember to go deep among the masses and take root among the people, and you can't sit in the yamen and wait for the case to come to the door. It is necessary to learn to make private interviews with micro-services, check the time and place of their stalls, find out the rules, and let them even have nowhere to run. These don't count, the most important thing is to check for me, whether there is a private agreement with people's lives, privately solve criminal lawsuits, now one by one, catch one and punish one, only in this way, they know that they will get the yamen if they fight a lawsuit, and they will not settle it privately. ”

Just when he was giving his subordinates the secret of generating income for the science popularization yamen, someone outside sent a post, it was Liang Ruimin, the local squire leader, who invited the county to order Liu Chaozuo to have dinner in Chunfeng Tower tonight.

After seeing the post, Zhang Yuande was shocked and said: "Master, this is absolutely impossible to go." His Liang family is doing maritime trade, and he has colluded with the Japanese Kou, you hurt his housekeeper yesterday, be careful that he is setting up a Hongmen banquet, maybe there are assassins in the Chunfeng Building, as soon as you go, I am afraid that there will be no return. ”
