This is clearly unreasonable.

There is such an injustice in the world.

On the other hand, he transferred the heavy taxes to the poor people, but he took all the benefits.

Turning their heads, they deceived the Emperor of the Apocalypse and collected their taxes, and they instigated people to resist taxes, weeping and complaining.

Isn't this playing with people like monkeys?

The officials forced the people to rebel, and the people rebelled against him, and the pot belonged to his Emperor of the Apocalypse, and the Ming Dynasty was finished, and it was the Emperor of the Apocalypse who died.

What about them? They knelt down on their knees, and they might not lose their high-ranking officials.

Thinking like this, the Emperor of the Apocalypse felt bad all over his body, and said angrily: "Is it? So you don't have to pay taxes? ”

Yang Fang said embarrassedly: "That's not what the minister meant. ”

"What does that mean?"

Yang Fang was forced to be anxious today, but there was no way, when it came to this, he decided to state the benefits: "Your Majesty, if the tax of the scholar is levied, then who will Your Majesty share the world with?" Who will enter the court as an official, who will come to suppress thieves for Your Majesty, and who will govern the people for Your Majesty? Not to mention anything else, it is the local grain tax, which is also paid for by the scholars. Ming Dynasty ...... It is the world of His Majesty and the scholars, if the scholars and gentry of the world are separated from His Majesty, then the ministers will think that they will ...... I'm afraid that the building will collapse. ”

Yang Fang told the truth today.

You can do it yourself, you can collect my taxes, but you have the ability to let everyone pay them together.

And the consequences of forcing everyone to cut their flesh, please think twice.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse was so angry that he wanted to scold him shamelessly.

He gritted his teeth and said: "If you are ordered to pay taxes, you must be detached from morality, then it is better to detach from morality." Da Ming has given enough kindness, what should be given, what can be given, even if it can't be given, all have been given. This tax must not only be collected, but also tightened. Yang Qing, you just start up. ”

When Yang Fang heard this, she was aggrieved: "Your Majesty...... Minister......"

The Emperor of the Apocalypse looked at him gloomily and said, "If you don't hand it over, then it doesn't matter, I will copy it myself, and copy as much as I want." Ten taxes and one is a traditional rule, and you have to pay this silver if you don't pay it. ”

Yang Fang was stunned for a moment, and his face had completely changed at this time.

In his opinion, the Emperor of the Apocalypse is no different from the Emperor of the Apocalypse.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse said, and directly flicked his sleeves: "Don't worry, there are people to accompany you, whether you want money or life, you think about it yourself!" ”

"Also, in the future, if you don't come to me to say anything to compete with the people, if you want to be a people, then you will obediently be a people, most of the people in this world are now from thieves, and you can also be thieves."

The Emperor of the Apocalypse said, and then said, "Drive back to the palace." ”

The Emperor of the Apocalypse did not say anything more.

More than 10 million taels of silver were copied, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse didn't believe in this evil, and he couldn't cure a Yang Fang.

Returned to the Qinzheng Hall in the West Garden.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse sat down, still angry.

Zhang Jingyi also followed, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse obviously had something to say, and said, "Sit down." ”

Wei Zhongxian and Zhang Jing all sat down.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse replied: "Is this matter really as Yang Fang said, is it that Yang Fang is alarmist?" ”

Zhang Jingyi: "The actual situation, it should be like this, the minister has heard a sentence, called bad money to eliminate good money, that is, if people have bad money in their hands, they will tend to take the bad money to the market circulation, and store the good money, so that there are more and more bad money on the market, so that people are reluctant to take good money to shop." ”

"The same is true of business, where the gentry are intricately entrenched in the locality, and through marriage, they have long formed an unbreakable network of relationships. At the same time, most of their children are scholars with meritorious reputations, and they can make friends with the government and even ministers at any time, which means that their goods can be unimpeded, and they can avoid the harassment of local wolf-like errands and officers and soldiers. Merchants have to pay taxes, but only they dare to resist taxes, therefore, the cost of doing business is far lower than that of ordinary merchants, those ordinary merchants take higher risks than them, and the cost of goods is also higher than them. ”

The Emperor of the Apocalypse looked cold, and said angrily: "In this case, I will definitely pay this commercial tax, but how to collect it, if it is ten hundred people, it is fine, but if it is a thousand and ten thousand such people?" ”

Wei Zhongxian immediately said: "What's so difficult about this, the slave and maid urged the eunuchs to guard the eunuchs and ordered them to guard the various mansions, and they will definitely be able to share the worries of Your Majesty." ”

Zhang Jing was amused when he heard it, in his opinion, guarding the eunuchs would not work at all.

Not to mention, this treats the symptoms but not the root cause, is it possible that the local town guards and eunuchs are good people?

I'm afraid that the taxes they have collected by all means will be taken by themselves, and after the layers are paid, I am afraid that there will not be much.

So Zhang Jing said: "In this world, there has always been a cost to collect taxes, and it is no problem for the eunuchs to collect taxes, but ...... On their own, how are taxes collected? After all, a person can't collect taxes, and the minister heard that many town guards and eunuchs recruited people after they arrived at the place, but in the locality, who wants to be the enemy of the gentry, but take refuge in the eunuch? Although the eunuch has an order, after all, he may have to return to the palace in a few years, but anyone who has a little insight is not willing to take refuge. ”

The end result is that it is often the local roosters and dog thieves who take refuge in the eunuchs. These people ...... Although they can also extort some silver, it can do more harm to the local area, and those gentry can stir up people's hearts and set off a tax resistance, according to the ministers, they are afraid that they will bully men and women with the minions of the eunuchs, and it is not unrelated. ”

Wei Zhongxian couldn't help but glared at Zhang Jingyi, thinking that Zhang Jingyi had ruined his good deeds.

But the Emperor of the Apocalypse nodded and said: "Yes, then Yang Fang dared to say to me that scholars should not pay taxes, because I want to rule the world with scholars, this is not unreasonable, he is sure of my rat taboo, and he also knows that if I am completely separated from the scholars, then in this world, what can be used by me, in these states and counties, there is only a group of ruffians left." If it goes on like this for a long time, it will be bad, what good way does Zhang Qing have? ”

"What a coincidence." Zhang Jing said: "The minister is in Fengqiu, in fact, he is also reforming the commercial tax, and I don't know how the effect is, the minister is thinking, how to use the lowest cost to levy this commercial tax, the original tax collection method is too old." Why don't you try it first, if Your Majesty thinks it's safe, it can be extended in the future. ”

The Emperor of the Apocalypse said, "Really? Why didn't you say it sooner? ”

Zhang Jingyi said with a smile: "The fiefdom of the minister, but it is just a county, speaking of which, it is really embarrassing, these little things, the minister...... It's hard to speak. ”

The Emperor of the Apocalypse was full of expectations for this, so he said: "Although the land of a county is small, it should not be underestimated, so you can rest assured and boldly do it, as long as you can get money from these people, I will support it no matter what." ”

"Really?" Zhang Jingyi's whole body was in good spirits, and he said excitedly: "The minister is a little incredulous. ”

The Emperor of the Apocalypse was still angry, and after listening to Zhang Jingyi's words, he glared at him and said, "You don't believe my words?" ”

Zhang Jing said: "Or...... Make a note? ”

Emperor of the Apocalypse: "......"

Zhang Jing said boldly: "Let's just say that no matter what the minister does, as long as he is in Fengqiu, he will be innocent, and he will be proved by written evidence." ”

When the Emperor of the Apocalypse heard this, he couldn't help but say, "What, did you really do something in Fengqiu that wanted to lose your head?" ”

Zhang Jingyi really wants to say that those who know me, Zhu Youxiao also.

Zhang Jing said: "Actually, I don't dare to do it yet, but now that Your Majesty has said so, the minister wants to give it a try." Of course, if His Majesty refuses, the minister will naturally never dare. ”

The Emperor of the Apocalypse said with a serious face: "There is no need to set up a document, I have made a promise to you in front of Wei Companion, and I should keep my promise." ”

As he spoke, the Emperor of the Apocalypse stood up and said, "Let me keep an eye on this Yang Fang, and pay the business taxes from him first." ”

Zhang Jingyi can understand the mood of the Emperor of the Apocalypse.

This is a feeling of being fooled, or rather, the Emperor of the Apocalypse is not a simple person, he can understand that a person is reluctant to pay taxes, after all, if this tax is received on the head of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, the Emperor of the Apocalypse is afraid that he will also feel distressed. But he couldn't accept that these people were greedy on the one hand, and on the other hand, they were eloquent, packaging themselves as people asking for their lives.

Zhang Jing was about to say goodbye.

But at this time...... But a eunuch hurriedly came and said, "Your Majesty, return to the German Mansion in a hurry." ”

It's Guide again......

The Emperor of the Apocalypse obviously still has some concern for this brother, and he should have explained that if there is any news of the Guide Mansion, he will report it immediately.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse said, "Take it and take a look." ”

After taking the song, the Emperor of the Apocalypse looked down, but couldn't help but make a smack.

Zhang Jingyi couldn't help but say curiously: "Your Majesty, I don't know what happened?" ”

The Emperor of the Apocalypse said in amazement: "This letter Wang Wei is really powerful, and he has defeated thousands of rogues, and the rogues have lost their hearts. Not only that, but Wen Tiren, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, do you have any impressions? ”

Wen Tiren ......

This name, Zhang Jingyi really feels a little familiar.

Emperor Tianqi said: "Since King Xin became a vassal, he even refused to be a waiter in the Ministry of Rites, and actually followed King Xin to Guide. In Guide, he served as the governor of King Xin's Mansion and assisted King Xin in governing Guide's Mansion. In this recital, it is said that he did a good job, and many people admired it, and under his rule, he was like a paradise in this Henan political envoy. ”

Saying that, the Emperor of the Apocalypse said with a little strangeness: "This is strange, Wen Tiren, a servant of the Ministry of Rites, can act in charge of civil affairs so quickly, and his political performance is still so good?" Brother I, I really value him......"

At this moment, a eunuch outside hurriedly came and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty ......"

The eunuch looked impatient and said anxiously: "Your Majesty, that scholar Yang Fang, the slave maid heard that he resigned and was going to Guide Mansion." ”
