A few days later, Zhang Shenyue left the safe green zone and went to the countryside with a team of three regular army assistants and 15 local chengguan team members. They will try to establish their own village and town management system in Wangjiazhuang, and try to fundamentally change the pattern of rural patriarchal society in the late Ming Dynasty.

On the other hand, on a larger scale, Pang Yu and others still had to rely on the original administrative team of the Ming government to implement their tax collection plan.

Although Xie Xi has always been a little disdainful of the administrative system of the feudal dynasty, in all fairness, at least this time, the administrative system of Qiongzhou Mansion has played the highest efficiency, and it can be said that even if the Ming Dynasty itself is replaced, it is impossible to let those officials do a better job.

Of course, Pang Yu didn't know that Yan Wenchang's gang carried out every task they promulgated with a certain "dragon from the dragon" mentality, and naturally exerted the highest subjective initiative. Although the specific way of doing things is not quite in line with the minds of modern people, with this spirit, many things are different.

Almost at the end of November, the beginning of December, the autumn grain tax work of the whole state government came to an end, and it took a month to complete this matter, which should be said to be a miracle speed compared to the previous examples of the Ming government -- in previous years, it would take at least two or three months for the same area to be collected. \\/23hh.cc\

It's just that, compared with the previous payment of grain and silver money by the big households, the materials collected from the civilians are all varied. When they went to the warehouse to inspect the harvest, they saw a large grocery store that resembled a bazaar, with all kinds of strange things.

Of course, the largest item is grain, and then there are all kinds of fabrics: cotton, silk, linen, silk, etc., all kinds of things. and baskets of broken silver and copper coins - these are relatively normal. And when I got to the warehouses below, all the mess came out......

Hides, herbs. Horns, and big white teeth called ivory -- how do you look like a wild boar...... This should be something that Li Zhai paid on the mountain. A warehouse next door was filled with all sorts of dried salted fish, emitting a disgusting smell of the sea, which should have been paid by fishermen's families.

And the part that drove them most crazy was in the yard - it was a simple livestock shed, in which dozens of little piglets were snorting and calling, and next door were a dozen curious donkeys, always stretching their necks to arch the little piglets. In addition, relying on their petite stature, they drill between the cracks of the fence with a large group of chickens, ducklings, and white geese...... The base of their warehouse compound was in shambles. \23hh.cc\/\

"Oh my God! What did you do? How many lives does this have to take to pull these things over? ”

Xie Xi grabbed his hair and shouted, for this irresponsible statement, Lin Feng, who had been in charge of the specific work later, immediately put forward a correct correction:

"You're saying the oppositeβ€”if we we, we'll only have to collect this surplus land. If they are forced to pay taxes only in money, then there is no doubt that they will have to sell their produce at a low price. In the past, when it was time to collect taxes. The prices of agricultural products everywhere will reach an astonishingly low level, even less than half of the original land - the peasants will have to sell them anyway, otherwise they will not have the money to pay taxes.

They don't want to sacrifice their reputation for profiteers to get rich. Therefore, in the specific expropriation process this time, the requirements for the so-called "folding" land are very broad. It can even be said that anything can be used to offset taxes. These are paid in kind, and there are even more pitiful ones in the future......

-- Check to the end. Lin Feng showed them a few large baskets, which contained piles of colorful papers. It looks like a penny. \23hh.cc\

"What the hell?"

Lao Xie picked up one and looked at it, it was in tatters. The words "Ming Pass Treasure Banknote" and "Consistent" are written on it, and the printing is poor. It's not as good as the stygian coins of later generations

"Daming treasure banknote, a very famous paper money in Chinese history. The Golden Yuan of the Ming Dynasty. ”

-- This thing was also made by Zhu Yuanzhang, the Hongwu Emperor. It is a bit reluctant to say that it is paper money, because although Zhu Yuanzhang used the authority of the state to force the people to use it as currency to replace silver consumption, he has never done anything to maintain the status of this paper money - there is no reserve, there is no scrapping and recycling system, and even the Ming government itself does not recognize the old banknote of a year ago when it comes to collecting taxes!

In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang only used this kind of paper money to do one thing -- to extract real money from the people to maintain what he called the small-scale peasant economic policy of "lightly taxing and meager endowments." Of course, this kind of means, which completely deviates from the laws of the economy, cannot last, and this kind of "treasure money" depreciates extremely quickly, and it can even be said that as long as it leaves the household yamen, it is useless. By the middle of the Ming Dynasty, this banknote had completely ceased circulation.

Although Xie Xi didn't know much about this history, he had been in the Ming Dynasty for so long, and he always knew what currency could be used, and he was immediately furious:

"What are you doing with this? I can't spend it at all! ”

But Lin Feng is more reasonable:

"We can't spend it, but we can either accept this pile of useless banknotes; Either we will stuff dozens or hundreds of people into the government prison in the name of resisting taxes - and take care of their food; Or simply force a few heads of households to hang themselves, so that their families that can still be called well-off will be shattered - what can you choose if you change it? ”

"Uh......"

Lao Xie immediately had nothing to say, and after a while he whispered:

"Then it's better to just get rid of it, what's the point of engaging in this kind of formalism

"This kind of formalism is really unavoidable. \//23hh.cc/\\If one is exempt from tax, what is exempt? This is the first time we have collected taxes, and even if it is only a formality, it is necessary. ”

-- It is precisely with this concept in mind that Pang Yu and Lin Feng repeatedly told those officials that as long as something is handed in, they should be stricter in terms of quantity. But there is no need to be too demanding on what the farmers should pay.

This year they can hand over something casually to fool the past, but next year, the year after that? …… First of all, the rules for paying taxes according to law should be established, and after a year or two, the peasants will naturally have something to pay. \\23hh.cc\In this regard, the traversers are still quite confident.

-- If only after a year or two of occupation. The common people are still so poor that they don't have the face to collect this tax.

After noisily reading their harvest, everyone was quite interested, but Ao Sayan was not very happy - Tai Tsai is in charge of the management of the green zone, and he has always been very tidy. And now the entire warehouse compound is full of smoke and chaos.

"Hey, you can't put anything in that warehouse after it's piled up with dried fish...... The greenery in the yard is also finished...... I said, when are you going to get all this stuff out? I don't want to live in a pigsty all day! ”

When everyone was making a fuss here, a guard suddenly came to report that someone outside had sent a plaque, which made everyone stunned again.

For one term as an official. Benefiting one -- although in fact most of them are the scourge party, most of the county magistrates, as long as they do not complain. When he left office, he still had to do face projects such as the Wanmin umbrella and the Wanmin plaque. It's just that the traversal people never thought that they could get this at home - Shi Yisheng, the doctor of the king of Hades, can often receive this kind of thing, but this is because of his local medical skills, and it has nothing to do with politics.

Even if you want to send it. It shouldn't have been sent at this time, right? It was only when the plaque was sent in that everyone found out that the plaque was sent for the current -- the plaque was written in five big characters:

"The blue sky is three feet high"!

"Tut-tut-tut......"

Pang Yu circled around the plaque twice, and sneered:

"I didn't expect that the stories I saw in "The Legend of the Laughing Forest" before would really appear here. Do you really think we're illiterate? ”

"Who gave this plaque?"

Xie Xi and the others were pale, when they were talking to each other internally. I once joked that this time I scraped three feet down the land of Qiongzhou Mansion, but some outsiders dared to ridicule it like this. Of course, you can't let it go lightly.

"It was sent by a Xiucai surnamed Wu in this mansion, and this person relied on a small amount of money at home. He has always been kind and eventful. ”

The guards are locals and are quite familiar with the local people. Everyone shook their heads.

"I came to the door to slap my face, but I didn't even wear a vest...... Do you really think that you have a high IQ and are very strong? ”

Someone built a "bamboo bud" plaque to give him a "bamboo bud" plaque, but Pang Yu and others were unwilling to spend this unjust money, although the coffin shop of Wang Ji has been giving them the lowest discount price for a long time, but the spirit of thrift and thrift cannot be lost!

So they threw this plaque directly to Wang Pu - since the state government official ran away, he, an authentic jinshi, also managed the local scholars by the way, and let him watch it well.

Facts have proved that although the Ming Dynasty was not as powerful as the later Qing Dynasty to engage in literary prison, Wang Jieshan, a master of Donglin, himself started by playing with words, and he easily saw through this kind of little trick. However, he was not interested in playing any secretive and insinuating word games with that sour show, and bluntly sentenced him to the crime of "doing nothing and insulting Sven", forty small bamboo boards, and beat him in court with his pants.

After a crackling and lively scene, Wu was carried back by the servants at home while lying on the plaque, his buttocks were red and swollen, and he could only pout high along the way, and he couldn't even cover a piece of cloth...... It was really laughed at by the people on the streets.

Inexperienced in the struggle...... The Ming Dynasty did not have the disadvantage of anonymous forums.
