Chapter 048: Ash Tax

On the hillside covered with white ash, Su Qinghe shook off the arm that was being grabbed by Zhao Xiaoman.

Those gray households were in chaos, he was grabbed by Zhao Xiaoman and ran towards this side, and the others were no longer visible.

Su Qinghe gasped slightly, and the hem of his robe was stained with a layer of dust.

Zhao Xiaoman saw that he was okay and walked in front to lead the way.

"What's the deal with the ash tax?"

It's complicated.

Su Qinghe pondered this and bent down to get out of the bushes.

didn't hear an answer, Zhao Xiaoman was looking at him and asked him not to move.

What the?

Su Qinghe was puzzled for a moment, a little uncomfortable stared at by her straight gaze, and just staggered his steps, Zhao Xiaoman came over.

"What are you doing?"

Su Qinghe was taken aback.

Zhao Xiaoman took the dead branch from his long hair and threw it to the ground.

“……”

Overreacted.

Su Qinghe turned his head sideways, lowered his eyes, and was secretly embarrassed.

Ah, that's always a cute expression.

Zhao Xiaoman rubbed his restless fingers, bent his eyes and smiled: "You haven't said what the gray tax is." If the gray tax is not solved, those gray households will not compromise, right? ”

If the gray household does not compromise, the dragon vein will have to be dug up, and the students in Suizhou will have to be unlucky.

Tut.

Su Qinghe looked embarrassed and complicated when he mentioned this.

He then walked forward, and as he went, he said, "In the fifteenth year of Longqing, the Holy Lord issued a decree, and after this decree was promulgated, the national mining tax was collected by the eunuchs in the palace. ”

Su Qinghe paused, he couldn't hold back his depression for a while, and said coldly: "Those eunuchs only know how to accumulate money, and take the opportunity to extort a lot of money, including mercury, coal, cinnabar, lime and other things in the scope of taxation. Many places have suffered from this disadvantage. ”

Zhao Xiaoman frowned: "Isn't this increasing the country's fiscal revenue?" ”

Su Qinghe looked at her deeply.

What does she mean by that? Did she say it wrong?

Zhao Xiaoman shrugged: "Isn't it?" The state always has to have income. As far as I know, the country has underdeveloped commerce, industry is equal to nothing, and what development can there be without the idea of mining. ”

The dragon vein is nonsense in front of the national finances, she can't understand what these people are superstitious, moving the people to support their families to get a job, and it's strange that people don't copy the guys.

Su Qinghe didn't know that she still understood this, and was a little surprised, but her brows were even more frowned.

"You don't know," he sighed faintly, "these taxes go through the eunuchs, and do not go into the treasury. ”

Well?

Zhao Xiaoman tilted his head: "What do you mean if you don't enter the treasury?" ”

Su Qinghe: "...... into the inner library. ”

Panties......

Zhao Xiaoman thought crooked for half a second, and immediately understood.

"State taxes do not go into the treasury, they go into the underpants!"

She rubbed her chin and said, "It's really interesting that the people in power in this country use the national tax revenue as pocket money." ”

The more she thought about it, the happier she became, and her eyes were so smiling that they were washed with water, like two black grapes. Su Qinghe was stunned when she suddenly looked at her, and couldn't help but complain that she was enough to do nothing.

"Didn't anyone protest about this?"

Protest?

Protest against the Holy One?

Su Qinghe looked at her strangely.

Zhao Xiao was full of ran.

She put it another way: "What are you going to do now?" It seems that if the gray tax is not solved, the gray households will not respond to the government's call. ”

The country's taxes are all inexplicable, what can Su Qinghe do? Wrong to accuse the emperor?

He was so handsome that his face was covered with a layer of sadness, and he walked absentmindedly on the mountain road.

"You knew that this would be the result before, that's why you are looking for Mr. Yan?" Zhao Xiaoman looked at his side face, and wanted to smooth his eyebrows.

"yes."

Su Qinghe bowed slightly and stepped on the pit, looking back to see that she couldn't get down.

Zhao Xiaoman jumped down lightly and stood face to face with him.

She had something to say, and Su Qinghe saw it, but she didn't avoid it.

"Mr. Yan can really be busy with you?"

Su Qinghe's heart moved, and he hesitated: "Maybe." ”

She smiled and said obediently: "You tell me what you know, and I will help you find him." ”

So zealous......

Su Qinghe hesitated even more, and his disbelieving little eyes kept looking at her.

"It's just an apology for yesterday's incident," Zhao Xiaoman stopped with a look in moderation, that is, the smile on his face made people as unhappy as they were.

Su Qinghe thought of yesterday's incident and thought that he had never known her, and walked forward by himself.

Zhao Xiaoman chased after him: "That's it." ”

Su Qinghe: "Finding Mr. Yan may not be able to convince the students who insist on the dragon vein. ”

"Try it."

It was rare to be able to discuss the problem with him seriously, Zhao Xiaoman didn't want to spoil the atmosphere, and asked where to find the famous Mr. Yan.

Speaking of this, Su Qinghe looked stunned.

If it weren't for this cheeky guy who was blackmailing Mr. Yan, how could he take her out to run errands? Mr. Yan is hiding in the mountains, and they are familiar with the mountains, so they can't really find it.

The gray tax is not clear, the gray households will not cooperate, and the clans insist on the dragon vein, is there no solution to the stalemate here?

Su Qinghe looked at the person in front of him fixedly.

"Tell me," Zhao Xiaoman shamelessly coquettish.

Su Qinghe looked away: "If you want to find it, you can find it." ”

Hearing him say that Mr. Yan was hiding in the mountains, Zhao Xiaoman quipped: "You went into the mountains and were arrested by me, wouldn't it be just to find Mr. Yan." ”

Su Qinghe: "......"

The past is still quite embarrassing, he doesn't want to mention it, and walks with his head bored.

"Isn't it?"

"Really?"

"Mom, this Mr. Yan is still the matchmaker for the two of us," Zhao Xiaoman muttered, seeing that the person in front of her was sulking again, her eyes were full of laughter.

From the mountain back to the foot of the mountain, most of the day has passed, and seeing the people gathered at the foot of the mountain from a distance, Zhao Xiaoman stopped, "You go and meet them." ”

Not following?

The corners of Su Qinghe's mouth tugged slightly, suppressed the doubts in his heart, nodded, and went down the mountain first.

"If you don't come back, I'm going to take someone back to find it," the eldest prince breathed a sigh of relief when he saw him.

Su Qinghe apologized to the others, and when he heard them say that he was going to return now, he couldn't help but look back in the direction he had just now.

It's a little far away, and I can't see if she's still there.

"Let's go to Juxian Building to rest, let's go Qinghe."

"Okay," Su Qinghe retracted his gaze, boarded the car and returned with everyone.

They are not in a good position, there is no feasible solution, and the big guys are all miserable.

The eldest prince didn't know how many times he sighed, and remembered: "Why didn't you see the little girl who was with you, and she couldn't do it on the mountain?" ”

"No," Su Qinghe said with a squeeze of his palm, "She left first." ”

"Who is that girl? I haven't heard of you bringing anyone back to the house, "The eldest prince is curious about this."

Su Qinghe didn't know whether to tell his eldest brother or not.

In the morning, I was angry and wanted to ask my eldest brother if there was any way to send Zhao Xiaoman away, don't always do strange things around him.

Right now...... I don't seem to be so angry anymore.

But a peek at the bath is definitely not a no-no.

How can the skin be so thick? Or is it that both men and women are the same in her eyes?

Lie!

Su Qinghe's face was hot.

"You don't think you're looking at that girl, are you?" The eldest prince was surprised by his strange face, and then smiled again, "There should indeed be someone by your side." It's a big deal, when you marry a wife, I'll give her a name. ”

"Big brother is cautious."

Su Qinghe interrupted him hurriedly, thinking of Zhao Xiaoman's stupid and evil face, his heart was furious.

"Absolutely nothing," Su Qinghe could swear.
