Chapter 26 The Debt Collector Comes to the Door

Since the crossing, the first day of Fang Yingwu's official study has passed unconsciously. A man and a woman studying together, the efficiency may be very high, or it may be low, but Fang Yingwu feels that today's results are good, at least beyond his expectations.

The woman who accompanied the reading put away the book, said goodbye, and went home. The next day, she arrived as promised, bringing with her a copy of the Analects, and continued to recite the annotations to the Analects of Zhu Zi for Fang Yingwu at the appropriate time.

Fang Yingwu also enjoyed this way of learning, but when he was reviewing today, he heard a message that interrupted his reading process slightly.

His uncle Fang did something earth-shattering at the right time - when the Dragon Boat Festival was in the Dragon Boat Festival, the county respected the people on the edge of the Qingxi outside the south gate of the county seat, and when watching the dragon boat race, Fang Fengshi suddenly broke into front of the county zun and complained in person.

Fang Fengshi is not someone else, it is the long-term Kaitai who has dominated Huaxi for more than ten years. The main charges were against morality, forced marriage, unequal forced labor, oppression of the people, and unscrupulous assault on villagers, and other eight counts, and evidence such as marriage documents signed by Cheng Kaitai were presented to the county honor.

When Fang Yingwu heard the above news, he was surprised and had to sigh, the people are creative, and their potential cannot be underestimated after being guided and tapped.

Fang Fengshi's behavior seems to be bold, but it actually grasps three main points. First, he seized the opportunity for the county to come out and was able to sue in person, eliminating the intermediate links. Otherwise, according to the normal procedure, after passing the form into the yamen, it is easy to have problems when passing through the officials, and I don't know how many cats happen in these links.

Second, seize the opportunity for the county to enjoy with the people. At this time, the Dragon Boat Festival, many gentry in the county were present, and the county had to put on a posture of being the master of the people, and would not fight back directly.

Third, no matter how a lieutenant like Cheng Kaitai says that he is also doing things for the government, it is very common for defendants to complain, so a certain amount of maintenance is required, and it is impossible for the county to ignore this. If there is only one crime, it may be considered that the people who sue for Diao.

But Fang Fengshi put out eight charges this time and brought out a little conclusive evidence, so in the eyes of the county respect, he is not the kind of people who have nothing to do, and he must be taken seriously.

Fang Yingwu originally thought that Fang Feng would compromise with Cheng Kaitai when they took the evidence, but they really didn't expect them to put Cheng Kaitai to death, but they underestimated their ruthlessness. But all this has nothing to do with me for the time being, so let's continue to study.

A few days later, Fang Yingwu heard the news that the county had exempted Cheng Kaitai from the long service, and sent Cheng Kaitai, Cheng Kaishan, Cheng Huainan and others to the salt field for three years of hard labor.

Subsequently, the county honored the party quickly appointed Fang to undertake the lieutenant chief's errand service at the right time, probably when the time to collect the summer tax came, and the lieutenant chief's errand service could not be vacant.

May 15 is the time when the summer tax is levied, and the standard of the summer tax is still based on rice and grain, but in the form it can be folded into silk, silk, and wheat according to the official proportion. However, these months have always been a time of food shortage, so it is rare to pay taxes with chunmai, and generally pay raw silk and silk horses.

The chief of grain is responsible for collecting the autumn grain, which accounts for the majority of the tax revenue, but the summer tax is the responsibility of the chief. Therefore, the first task of the newly appointed Li Changfang is to collect the silk tax of the three villages of Huaxi and send it to the county treasury, of course, with a certain amount of money. *

Before starting to get busy, the new Fang Zongjia went to Fang Yingwu's courtyard to sit down, intending to discuss the policy with Fang Yingwu. Fang Zongjia's political views mainly have two points:

"This year's loss and surplus silver outside of the regular tax is all responsible for the Cheng family in Xiahuaxi! Ask them to compensate for the losses of our Fang family over the years! โ€

"The idea of the three rotational conscription of the former general division is good, and Uncle Wei can also follow suit, but it has to be changed in form. This year is the first year of rotation, so from the Cheng family's rotation, all the conscription will be apportioned to the Cheng family in Xiahuaxi first! โ€

Of course, Fang Yingwu can see that this is the first naked revenge, which seems to be no essential difference from Cheng Kaitai's behavior. However, the ass decides the head, and he eats enough to support it before he goes against Fang Fengshi's approach.

Seeing that Fang Yingwu really didn't have the heart to do this, the new general manager glanced at Sister Lan under the shade of the tree ambiguously, and patted the soil to leave.

Fang Yingwu remembered something, and hurriedly stopped him again and ordered a few words. Fang Fengshi patted his chest, agreed to come down, and then left.

Riko passed day by day in the reading. With no ears to the outside of the window and only reading the books of the sages, Fang Yingwu felt that he had gradually entered this state.

It's all about the exam! Even Mei Sรจ can restrain himself at the moment, and he is not as good as a beast, but some things are destined to be unavoidable.

Seven or eight uninvited guests appeared outside the courtyard and shouted through the fence, "Fang Yingwu is not here!" โ€

Fang Yingwu turned his head and looked at it a few times, they were all strangers, but he didn't know where he came from, and he looked like a rogue villain wandering the market. But it is certain that there are no such people in their villages.

The leader stared at Fang Yingwu a few times, and shouted: "Looking at the age, you are probably Little Brother Fang?" You owe thirty taels of silver to others, and it is due today, so do you think about how to repay the debt? โ€

It turned out to be a debt collector, and Fang Yingwu suddenly understood that these people were obviously instructed by the Baimei girl in the county to make trouble.

In these years, there are such people, who are usually idle, and are responsible for collecting debts and spoaching debts, which makes the debtors unable to be peaceful. What is even more serious is that they are accustomed to organizing gangs to indiscriminately rob debtors' homes, forcing people to pawn their property and even sell themselves to pay off debts. It's like a debt collection agency in his previous life.

Sure enough, I saw these people standing at the gate of the courtyard and began to scold. If the guess is right, this is their first axe, Fang Yingwu thought.

"Debt repayment, God is fair, you little thief, you can't do it if you want to be a Tulai ghost!"

"Look at your dog-like appearance, but you are also a skinned goods, I advise you to sell yourself at a good price to pay off your debts!"

"Don't fool around with the little lady and forget about the debt! Grandpas can get away with it for you, but they can't pay off your debts for you! โ€

The scoundrels from the county were swearing foul language and kicking the fence violently. In a few moments, the fence staggered and collapsed, revealing a gap, and if seven or eight scoundrels tried to break in, it would be unimpeded.

Fang Yingwu was nothing, she was still calm, but Sister Lan was so frightened that she lost her face and retreated again and again.

At this moment, I saw dozens of villagers gathered, holding all kinds of farm tools one by one, looking unkind. Shanghuaxi Village is not big, and this group of scoundrels made such a big disturbance here in Fang Yingwu, which has already alarmed the whole village.

Recently, after two battles, the group beating and the fight with the Cheng family, the villagers of Shanghuaxi not only improved their cohesion, but also greatly exercised their courage. This time, I saw that the highly sought-after little minister should be in trouble, so he spontaneously and consciously came to help.

Seeing this, the scoundrel shouted: "Grandpa, I'm doing teeth in the county office!" Today is to collect debts for others, repay debts, and go to court is the same reason! Don't mess with irrelevant people! โ€

When Xinli Changfang is in high spirits, how can he manage a lot? A few scoundrels also came to the Fang family to be arrogant on the ground, and they simply didn't take him seriously! What's more, the little prime minister has long been instructed to guard against this kind of malicious debt collection. He shouted: "Folks, fight!" After the fight, he threw it out of the village. โ€

Although there are a lot of seven or eight scoundrels, they are also very loud and vicious, and they can scare honest people. But in the eyes of the gathered Shanghuaxi villagers, how can they cross Tan justice?

The scoundrels from the county town were immediately like balls that had been punctured, and they could only hold their heads but had nowhere to escape. More than thirty surrounded seven or eight, enough for them to not run away.

After a while, seven or eight scoundrels rolled on the ground, seeing that there was no air in and no air out. Fang Zongjia was startled, worried that it would really kill someone, so he hurriedly called a halt. At the same time, he instructed the villagers to throw them all on the side of the road outside the village, and told them to get out of the way after relieving themselves.

This matter is not over, Fang Yingwu sighed. The white-plum girl is narrow-minded and has a monstrous hatred for her father, and she will not give up easily. Today's malicious sฤo disturbance may just be the beginning.
