Chapter 288: Shut Yourself Up

When Zhao Hanzhang returned to the county office, he couldn't sleep, so he simply went to the lobby to deal with things.

Zhao Erlang followed behind her step by step, and asked with a tangled face: "Sister, did I cause trouble for you?" ”

"No," Zhao Hanzhang reached out and touched his head, and praised: "You did a good job, fortunately you caught Sun Taihe back, otherwise we would be in trouble." ”

It's not huge, but it will still be.

It's good that he can get to Chen County safely, but if something happens on the road, then she can't explain it in the face of Sun County's order.

When Zhao Erlang heard the praise, he immediately became happy, "I am also very good today, and I have caught a lot of people who are sneaking around to grab things and beat people." ”

Zhao Hanzhang praised: "Well done! ”

Zhao Erlang not only wanted Zhao Hanzhang to praise him, but also wanted Fu Tinghan to praise him, so he looked left and right and asked, "What about my brother-in-law?" ”

"He's been tired all night and is resting," Zhao Hanzhang looked at Zhao Erlang carefully and said, "You've been busy all night, go eat something and sleep." ”

Zhao Erlang felt that he was very energetic at this time and didn't want to sleep, so he shook his head.

Zhao Hanzhang didn't try to persuade him, let Tinghe go to the kitchen to prepare food, so she led Zhao Erlang to eat.

Now it's not the time to eat, the food in the kitchen has to be fast, so it's a little simple, baked cakes, and stewed dishes.

Zhao Hanzhang was hungry, so he ate with Zhao Erlang, and the two sisters and brothers ate a large plate of cakes.

Zhao Hanzhang saw that he was satisfied with eating, smiled slightly, and led him to the small single room, "Lie down and sleep." ”

As soon as Zhao Erlang, who was still talking about not being tired, sat down on the wooden couch, his eyes drooped involuntarily, and after two yawns, he tilted his head and fell asleep.

Zhao Hanzhang stepped forward to help him take off his shoes, put the person flat on the wooden couch, and withdrew when he saw that he was sleeping soundly.

Zhao Hanzhang is strong, and he has a lot of soldiers and horses, and the only general Ding who can argue with her hesitates to listen to her orders, and when someone reacts and wants to squeeze her forces out of Canyang County, she has already controlled the entire county government.

From the county to the officials who ran errands and guarded the door, they all subconsciously obeyed Zhao Hanzhang's orders, and so far, the entire Cangyang County is under her control.

And Fu Tinghan also sorted out the households, not only found out a large number of taxes added to the heads of ordinary people, but also found a large number of hidden households.

There is such a thing as a hidden household, which exists in all counties, and there is also in Xiping County, and the Zhao family is one of the leaders.

But Zhao Hanzhang didn't ask the Zhao family to settle this account, and the people under his rule had no opinion on it, because these hidden households did not infringe on their interests for the time being.

The former Fan County Decree of Xiping County did not exaggerate the number of households in the population, so the tax amount given above has nothing to do with those hidden households, and the taxes that the people under the rule of Xiping County need to bear are all they should bear.

But it is not in Canyang County.

Sun County Ling has not reported the increase in the population in the past two years, but similarly, he has not reported the decrease in the population.

In the past two years, because of various things, especially last year, when the Xiongnu besieged the city, a large number of people left their hometowns or directly became hidden households.

If he doesn't report it, then he still needs to pay so much tax every year.

But two years ago, there might have been 10 people in Kangyang County, but now there are 3 people who have run away, 3 who have hidden, and the remaining four people have to bear the taxes of 10 people.

In addition, this year's tax increase by He Tingshi, Shangcai County and Xiping County could not pay the full amount of taxes, and they were added to the counties, and their burden was even heavier.

On average, a person has to pay two and a half taxes, which can crush people.

Fu Tinghan wrote down the sorted data, his heart continued to sink, and when he handed over the summarized data to Zhao Hanzhang, he said: "In the year when the wind and rain are good, when you work hard for a year and find that you need to sell your wife and children to pay enough taxes, the chaos will arise. ”

Zhao Hanzhang looked at the data, his face darkened.

This is a man-made disaster!

Zhao Hanzhang closed it and threw it to Zhao Hui, who was standing in a volume, "Pick some data and copy it down and send it to the grain depot." ”

Zhao Hui's eyes widened, and he couldn't help but look at Fu Tinghan, hoping that he could persuade her, and if he did so, it was very likely that he would tear his face with the Haofu clan in Canyang.

Fu Tinghan stood aside, not persuading, but agreeing.

Zhao Hanzhang looked at Zhao Hui coldly, "What, can't Brother Hui do it?" ”

"Okay," Zhao Hui thought secretly, anyway, in the future, this Canyang will not be in his hands, she will make enemies if she wants to, "I'll go." ”

Zhao Hanzhang summoned Ji Yuan and the county officials together, and said: "The people need to be appeased, the household has already counted the grain recovered from the various li, considering the difficult livelihood of the people, the county government will open a warehouse to release grain, give relief to the people, notify each li, and let them enter the city to receive relief grain in order." ”

In order not to be chaotic, Zhao Hanzhang decided to divert the time when the people of Geli entered the city, thinking of the chaotic and dark data, Zhao Hanzhang did not trust Geli Zheng very much, and she urgently needed someone who could supervise at this time.

Her heart moved, and she asked, "What about Chen Wan and Xiang Yu?" ”

Ji Yuan said: "In prison." ”

Zhao Hanzhang glared, "Who caught them?" ”

Ji Yuan smiled: "They are self-bound." ”

When they saw Zhao Hanzhang slashing the main book with a knife and locking up the rich people in the grain depot in the grain depot to count the grain mixed with sand and stones, Chen Wan and Xiang Yu tied themselves with ropes, and then walked into the prison by themselves, and let the prison messenger open a cell, and they went in and squatted by themselves.

When Zhao Hanzhang heard this, he was speechless for a long time.

She scratched her head, thinking that she had to behave like a polite corporal, definitely not that she wanted to go to the prison to see her own drama.

She said excitedly: "Let's go, let's go and invite two righteous men." ”

On the way there, Zhao Hanzhang also quietly said to Fu Tinghan: "This kind of thing, if someone writes it down, it will be a good story a hundred years later, and I am also a character in the history books." ”

Fu Tinghan: "...... Ever since you led your troops into Xiping, you've been a character in the history books, right? ”

"Alas, you don't understand, this kind of thing can easily disappear from the history books, but it is this kind of anecdote that is very interesting when you hear it is easier to pass it on, it will not be recorded in the official history, but it will be easier to spread and circulate."

Fu Tinghan saw that she was so interested, so she decided to go back and help her remember her things, she likes to leave a name in history, so he will help her.

As long as there is enough to write, there will always be something that can be passed on.

The prison in Canyang County was a little quiet, there were many people in it before, most of them were people who couldn't pay taxes and were arrested, Zhao Hanzhang let them go, and there were many empty cells at this time.

Zhao Hanzhang led people all the way in, but he didn't meet a few people.

The prison messenger heard the movement and rushed over, he didn't know Zhao Hanzhang, but he knew the county Cheng, and when he saw Zhao Hanzhang who was surrounded in the middle, he wanted to know who she was, so he immediately knelt down and saluted: "The little one is going to see Zhao Xianjun." ”

Zhao Hanzhang nodded and asked, "Where are the two Chen Wan who put themselves in prison?" ”
