Chapter 922: Big Pig's Trotters (5)
"You are?"
The middle-aged man is obviously not very good at dealing with adults: "The small one, the small one is the village chief here, and the little one is called Ye Jie." ”
"Village chief? Can there be a village chief here? Han was surprised, "Has this village been written into the household register?" ”
Under the new system, only villages recognized by the steward could have a village chief.
The village chief is also regarded as the grassroots leader under the command of the county official, and the court has no time to interfere with the selection of this position, but the establishment of this position must be reviewed by the household department. The number of people, the amount of production, and the number of conscripts need to be recorded. Having a village chief means that the village has become large, not just a gathering of displaced people, and it is necessary to pay taxes.
Village Chief Ye said with trepidation: "Yes...... Yes. Just the other day, a household official came and wrote all of us in. ”
Han asked: "But this place is not suitable for building a village, it is too close to Yanju City." If the dense forest is cut down, the walls of Yanju City can be directly seen from this place. There is not enough land on the periphery for you to cultivate and not be self-sufficient, let alone taxed. ”
Village Chief Ye scratched his head: "Yes, when I first came here, I was also worried about this matter. But there are mines a mile away, and we can mine for a living. And...... Your Excellency exempted us from taxes? ”
"Why?"
"Your Majesty, this is a blessing to you. Your Majesty said that because you lived here, we were able to take refuge. ”
I see......
It's also speechless.
Many officials in the imperial court were grass on the wall, and when they saw that the foundation was more stable, they went to join which faction. Although Han is a puppet emperor, he can't guarantee that Luan Lu will be eaten one day. Besides, now that it is the Southern Dynasty, the right to speak in the court will one day be tilted towards Han.
These officials are not sheltering these people, in the final analysis, they are just patting Han's horses in disguise.
It's just that the official obviously slapped the horse's leg.
The people who originally lived here had already gone to Lirenzhai, and later went to Wangjun Valley with Luanshuang, and there were not many people who stayed here. So many empty wooden houses were built by craftsmen, because they are strong and durable, and can shelter the displaced people from the wind and rain, which is why latecomers come to settle here.
Han has no affection for these displaced people and new residents.
He glanced left and right, and there was no one he knew.
He walked into the wooden house that had been built for Luanshuang, only to see that the wooden house had been expanded out again. It has become the largest one in this village.
The fence was still made by him and Luan Shuang that day, and there were still a few funny notches on it. The word sister is clearly visible, and he deliberately carved it in front of Luan Shuang in order to hide that he did not have amnesia.
Village Chief Ye seemed to be saying something behind him, but Han was frozen in a trance and didn't pay attention for a moment.
His mind was caught up in the past and Luanshuang's memories.
The memories of living together, after being washed over the past few months, have precipitated fascinatingly.
Does he really have a chance to go back in time with Luanshuang?
He turned to enter the house, but through the wooden window, a woman was breastfeeding the baby. She was dressed in the clothes of a folk woman, and she sat on the bed with her hair scattered. Because she saw a strange man, she was so frightened that she quickly pinched her collar and turned her back.
"Your Majesty......" Village Chief Ye suddenly ran to him and knelt on the ground, "The little wife has just given birth, and she hasn't been confined yet." I hope Your Majesty ...... I hope Your Majesty ...... I can let her go! ”
Reading is exciting, reading is wonderful!
