Chapter 140: The Mighty Dragon and the Earth Snake (3)

Duan Tiande lost weight. In November last year, Duan Tiande began to lose weight. This year, Duan Tiande has lost a lot of weight. At that time, the Duan family was ordered to pay real estate tax and real estate tax ten times more expensive than others. The mood is intense, and the appetite is also affected.

This year, the tax bill sent to the Duan family is clearly written. The tax on houses and land in the Qinhuai River is ten times that of the neighboring houses, and in the entire Jiangning Prefecture, all the land and house taxes of the Duan family are three times that of other houses. This next paragraph Tiande was so angry that he had seen ruthless officials, but he had never seen such an arrogant and ruthless official.

went to the yamen of the prefect of Jiangning Mansion to see Wen Zhang, but Duan Tiande was not able to see him. asked others to go to see Wen Zhang, and the answers they got were all the same, "We have no ill will towards the Duan family, but the land along the Qinhuai River must be sold to the government." ”

"The head of the house, Gorou is here." The family came to pay tribute.

Duan Tiande's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said, "Let him in." ”

Wulang was Duan Tiande's nephew and was sent to Hangzhou to talk to powerful people in Hangzhou. It didn't take long for Duan Wulang to come in in a hurry, and he said, "Uncle, Hu Yuanfeng has been released from his foreign post. ”

"Outside? Where did you put it? Duan Tiande was surprised. The Duan family is also looking for people who are willing to help, and Hu Yuanfeng is the only one who really says he is willing to help.

"Let me be the deputy director of the Department of Agriculture of Quang Nam and Liang Road."

"Quang Nam Two Roads?" Duan Tiande was dumbfounded. Guangnan Road is a place where prisoners are exiled, although after Zhao Guan's family opened up the sea, both the east and west roads of Guangnan developed, and Zhao Guan's family did Guangzhou Zhizhou on Guangnan Road, which proves that the place is not so terrible. However, this place is by no means a good place.

Duan Wulang said with a sad face: "I went to see Hu Yuanfeng, but his family didn't let me see him at all. directly scolded me and said that it was because of our family that Hu Yuanfeng was affected. It might be true. ”

Shilang was a kind of Lang official in the Han Dynasty, and he was originally a close attendant of the court. After the Eastern Han Dynasty, the subordinate officials of Shangshu were called Langzhong at the beginning, and they were called Shangshulang for one year and Shilang for three years. Since the Tang Dynasty, the ministries of Zhongshu, Menxia Province and Shangshu Province have all taken Shilang as the deputy of the chief, and the official position has gradually increased. It is equivalent to the level of minister and vice minister of New China.

Even when a waiter from the Ministry of Agriculture was reprimanded to go to Guangnan Road, Duan Tiande only felt his heart trembling. The power of the Wen family has reached the point of arrogance. At this time, Duan Tiande was no longer unwilling in his heart, and he had no intention of resisting. He sighed, "Alas! Ask the Lu family if they are willing to buy a house and land next to the Qinhuai River. ”

The Lu family is Duan Tiande's in-laws, and even at this time, Duan Tiande doesn't want to bow his head directly to Wen Zhang. Sell the land to the Lu family, and then the Lu family can sell it at will.

At noon that day, Duan Tiande still didn't have much appetite. having to succumb to a boy who was less than forty years old made Duan Tiande feel extremely humiliated. In the afternoon, Duan Wulang came back to report, "Uncle, the Lu family said that they have no money in their hands and can't buy our house and land." ”

This time, Duan Tiande was so angry that he said angrily: "Tell the Lu family, we asked them for less money for this house and land." ”

"Uncle, the Lu family said that they are really short of money now, and they can't even get the deed tax on the transfer of house and land."

Listening to his nephew's words, Duan Tiande was so angry that he slapped the table hard. The Lu family is also a solid family, of course, it is impossible not to take out that money. The reason why they said this was entirely because the Lu family did not want to get involved in the struggle between the Duan family and the prefect of Wenzhang. If the Duan family really bowed their heads, why bother to pull the Lu family to be this middle-aged person, wouldn't it be good to bow their heads directly to Wen Zhang.

Seeing that even his in-laws didn't dare to support him, Duan Tiande roared angrily: "Even if I, Duan Tiande, starve to death, I won't sell the land to Wenzhang!" ”

At this moment, Duan Fengming was introducing the person next to him to Wen Zhifu in Wen Zhang's official office, "Prefect, this is Duan Anguo, the eldest son of Duan Tiande. ”

"Oh?" Wen Zhang just responded, not particularly excited.

"Prefect, my cousin wants to sell the land and houses on both sides of the Qinhuai River to the government." Duan Fengming continued to introduce the situation.

"If you want to sell, you have to go through the procedures, do you have a title deed?" Wen Zhang asked.

"Yes! Yes! Duan Anguo hurriedly replied.

Wen Zhang stared at Duan Anguo for a while, and then asked, "You can't be the stolen house deed, right?" ”

This question was too sharp, and Duan Anguo and Duan Fengming were both embarrassed. However, neither of them denied it.

Wen Zhang sighed, "This matter has become so big, I heard that there are people in the court who are impeaching me." You signed it with the stolen title deed, Duan Tiande will not be convinced. This is another confession to me. I've been pushed to the point where I can't go wrong. ”

"But ......" Duan Anguo was also very embarrassed, his father's temper was so arrogant. has a special insistence on land and real estate, and let his father sign it in person, which is equivalent to completely bowing his head. It's not easy.

"So be it." Wen Zhang said: "You go back and tell your father, and the people of the Duan family." I have no grievances with the Duan family, and what I do is also a business matter. If you sell the land and houses along the Qinhuai River to the government, I will give your family a tax refund. Everyone gave in to each other, or sold the land to the government as originally said. What do you think is good? ”

"Good, good!" Duan Anguo and Duan Fengming agreed again and again. Such a result is better than they can imagine, if they just admit that they can't fight the government, then what. There is a reason why the people have not fought with the officials for so many years.

When I got home, I told Duan Tiande the good news. Duan Anguo thought that his father would accept it, but he didn't expect Duan Tiande to scold after hearing it, "Wen Zhang actually wants to humiliate me!" Be his big dream. I don't sell this house and land! ”

was at home, Duan Tiande's family came to report, "The head of the family, the people in the clan ask to see." ”

Duan Tiande turned his head, his eyes swept over his son, and he asked sharply, "Have you gone to tell the clan what Wen Zhang said?" ”

Duan Anguo didn't dare to answer, it should be Duan Fengming who told the people in the clan. In particular, the two of them hope to be able to put an end to this senseless dispute. The Duan family has done their best to support Duan Tiande's decision so far, and everyone really can't hold it anymore. Thinking of this, Duan Anguo plucked up his courage and said, "Dad, why are you doing this. ”

"You don't have to talk nonsense, let the elders of the clan come in." Duan Tiande replied.

Sitting down with the elders, Duan Tiande said, "I'm ...... now is worried that after bowing his head, Wen Zhang will not let go of our Duan family. ”

"If you don't bow your head now, then Wen Zhang will let our Duan family go?" The elders immediately retorted.

"But when did our Duan family suffer such a loss in Jiangning!" Duan Tiande said angrily.

The elders were also speechless for a while, and Duan Tiande spoke their minds, so they supported Duan Tiande at the beginning.

"It's fate!" I don't know who sighed in a low voice.
