Especially now, it's too late to build the palace, so naturally I can't take care of the small county lord's mansion of Fu Niu.

If you don't take the initiative to ask for money, you will end up and pay it back.

I'm afraid that the silver will be put into his own pocket, and those moths will be cheap!

"Okay, thank you Lord Zhou for mentioning it, I'll talk to Master Hou about it in the evening." Mrs. Li should take it down.

"The old lady is polite, I'm just going to say a few more words." Master Zhou hesitated for a moment, and then said, "A few days ago, my wife came home and said that she was very guilty of causing trouble to you, and asked the old lady to forgive her sins. ”

Mrs. Li replied calmly: "Master Zhou, you are also an old acquaintance with the people of our village, knowing that we are all ordinary farmers and don't understand any big truths, but we only know that if people are good to us, we will double the reward."

"But if anyone plays tricks with us and bullies us, of course we are not cheap, we have to stick it up! So, don't think too much about Lord Zhou, let's just pay our own hands in the future. ”

The old lady pointed to the fruit tree on the mountain in the distance, and said: "Friendship is like planting a tree, you have a scoop of water, I have a handful of fertilizer, and we can help each other to make the tree bear good fruit."

"But whoever does something wrong, stop the waist and cut it, and the tree will slow down, grow a scar, and still live after the beginning of spring. I'm afraid that if you cut off the root with a knife on the left and a knife on the right, you will be completely hopeless, right? ”

Lord Zhou is like a mirror in his heart, Mrs. Li is warning his wife not to play tricks with the Li family in the future, otherwise the friendship between the Zhou family and the Li family will be broken.

He nodded hurriedly, "The old lady is right. ”

Mrs. Li waved her hand and said with a smile: "I'm an old lady from a peasant family, I don't know anything, so Master Zhou doesn't dislike me for talking nonsense." ”

For a while, everyone ate the fruit, and Lord Zhou politely said goodbye with the craftsman, and agreed to produce the drawings tomorrow and come to work the day after tomorrow.

Mrs. Li was worried about her granddaughter, so she went back first, leaving the village chief and others to wander around excitedly.

At this time, Li Zheng, who was running into the big locust tree and Dawangzhuang and Xiaowangzhuang, brought the villagers to come, and they greeted the village chief from afar.

"Brother, I heard that we are going to build a memorial arch in Broken Golden Beach, and we are all here to help! This is the glory of our three villages, you can't let us go! ”

The village chief greeted them with a smile and sat down on the stone together, "Don't worry, the happy events of your family, you can't hide even if you want to." ”

The three words of his own family made the Lizheng people completely relieved.

The village chief said: "Today, the adults from the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry came to investigate, and the construction will start the day after tomorrow. There are five or six people in our village, and the three of you in the village can also follow this number, and together there are more than 20 people, which is enough to help the masters. ”

"Okay," Sanli Zheng replied with a mouthful, and said with a smile, "The old and young masters in the village are all clamoring to come to work, and they are full of joy, and when the time comes, we will choose the strong ones and keep them to do the work well." ”

The village chief hurriedly said, "Everyone bring a pickaxe and a shovel, and we will eat lunch here, there are vegetables and meat, and we are full!" ”

"Haha, that's great, they all say that the food in our village is the best, and everyone is blessed."

The three of them were all praised, which made the village chief and everyone happy.

Then the big locust tree Li Zheng asked, "When my brother is free, help us ask when this year's tax grain will be delivered, everyone should prepare." ”

The Li family had discussed this matter, so Li Laosi quickly replied: "The emperor's grace is vast, we just came to settle in our village before, and we got tax exemption for three years. This year is only the second year, so let's pay the grain tax this year and next year. ”

Sanli Zheng didn't react for a while, and he was surprised when he figured it out.

The Li family is clearly not taking advantage of the imperial court!

In fact, the entire broken gold beach is now the fief of the Li family, and it is natural for the Li family to accept the taxes and grain of their three villages, and no one can say wrong.

However, the Li family adhered to the original rule of exempting the wasteland from taxes for three years, and refused to charge them more taxes for the past two years.

The village chief also knew about the Li family's decision, "Although there is not much tax grain in the three villages, the capital has just been moved, and too many people have come here in the new capital, I am afraid that the emperor and the court are worried about food, and it is good to collect a few more bags."

"We have received a lot of rewards from the emperor, and we can't share the worries of the emperor, we are already ashamed. Now I can help a little, everyone is happy! ”

"Yes, yes!" The rest of the villagers also said, "We only rely on the grain harvested in the valley, and it is enough to fill our stomachs." ”

"If you give taxes and grain to the imperial court, how can you raise an extra hundred and ten people!"

"Yes, no matter how small a mosquito is, it's still meat."

The three Li Zheng and the villagers they brought with them listened and watched, and they couldn't help but sigh.

No wonder the Hou Ye is willing to live in Broken Gold Beach, so many nobles are also willing to go in and out, and the emperor has rewarded him again and again.

These people in Broken Gold Beach are just different from others.

A sincere heart always makes people can't help but want to believe and want to get closer......

With such a leader, as long as the three of them don't eat inside and outside and follow the footsteps, life will definitely not be wrong!

"Brother village chief, if you have any work in the future, just call us, it's all a family, it's not good to talk to us."

"Yes, our three villages are also the fiefdoms of the county lord, and we must be given a chance to do our best for the county lord."

The village chief smiled and gave them a reassurance, "Don't worry, everyone, it's just a memorial arch recently, but after the beginning of spring, you have to build a bridge and pave the road, and you have to find everyone to help, don't shout tired when the time comes." ”

"No, no! How can you be tired of working for your own home! ”

The people of Sanli Zhenghe Village were all elated, and those who didn't know, looking at their appearance, thought they had picked up something cheap.

After a few more gossips, the crowd dispersed.

On the second day, the three villages shouted to the people, pulled up the tax grain, and hurried to the city.

Thinking of paying the grain tax, they followed the archway steadily!

The new capital was overcrowded, so they set up a straw hut outside the city, and the people who came and went to deliver tax grain were registered here and called.

As soon as the people from the big locust tree and the big and small wangzhuang arrived, acquaintances came to say hello.

"Why are you here? Aren't your three villages divided into fiefdoms? ”

"Yes, you just have to pay taxes and grain, and you should also pay it to Broken Gold Beach, right?"

"Why, you don't accept the broken golden beach, and you want to hand over the tax grain to the imperial court?"

Sanli hurriedly waved his hand, eager to have eight mouths to explain to everyone.

"It's not that we don't pay it, it's that we don't want to break Jintan!"

"Yes, the Li family doesn't want it!"

The others didn't understand and asked, "What is this, why don't the Li family want it?" The food delivered to hand, and the pushed? ”

"You're right!" Li Zheng of the big locust tree said: "The Li family said that the broken gold beach has just been opened, and the imperial court has been exempted from taxes and grain for three years, and now it has only been a year. Therefore, the Li family wants us to hand over this year's and next year's taxes and grain to the imperial court! ”
