There were a lot of people stopped at the other end of the checkpoint, and there was a stalemate at some point, and there were a lot of officials and some soldiers at this end.

The people who were stopped happened to be facing Zhao Hanzhang and them, and they were the first to see Zhao Hanzhang riding a big horse, because there was a neat cavalry behind her, they were stunned for a moment and then reacted, and immediately turned around and pulled the carriage and horse to turn around.

The people behind also saw that those who carried the loads, those who pushed the carts, and those who carried ox carts, mule carts, donkey carts, and horse-drawn carts, all turned around in panic and wanted to run back.

Zhao Hanzhang raised his eyebrows slightly, but before he could react, the soldiers and officials who stopped in front of the checkpoint with their backs to them turned around and saw them, and they were also startled, and immediately ignored the checkpoint, jumped over the railing and ran away with them in a panic.

Zhao Hanzhang: ......

She fell silent, put her two fingers forward a little bit, and ordered: "Stop people, don't hurt people!" ”

When Zhao Erlang and Qiu Wu heard the order, they immediately rushed out with people like wolves, they were war horses, fast and well-trained, and they quickly crossed the checkpoint to chase them.

Four soldiers jumped down from behind, quickly moved the railing that served as a checkpoint, and the cavalry behind quickly caught up with Zhao Erlang and a few people, and soon shouted that the people who wanted to flee for their lives were surrounded.

At this moment, the people who were surrounded were merchants, officials, and soldiers, and they looked at them with panic and fear.

Some people lost their goods, and some people desperately grabbed their things, and the whole person shrank on the ground, but they still did not want to give up what they were holding.

Zhao Erlang was dissatisfied when he saw it, and shouted: "What are you running, didn't you see us carrying the banners of Yuzhou and the Zhao family, and said, what are you doing?" ”

Qiu Wu coughed lightly and said, "Erlang, these people look like vendors, why do you want to ask why they are gathered here?" Or wait for the girl to come up and ask. ”

Zhao Hanzhang came up, followed by the mighty refugee group.

Then the officials and soldiers who were kneeling on the ground reacted, and hurriedly kneeled forward to salute, "Meet the general, I don't know which general in the Zhao family's army?" ”

Zhao Hanzhang: "You look up and take a look?" ”

The official headed by the official raised his head and glanced at Zhao Hanzhang, immediately lowered his head, and kowtowed again and again, "The little one doesn't know if the envoy is coming, and it is a small sin to fail to meet him from afar, so the little one will go back and inform the county order, and let the county order come to greet the envoy." ”

"No need." Zhao Hanzhang asked: "Your county ordered me to go to see him, what I'm curious about is what you are doing?" ”

Seeing that she asked gently, and that she had already been identified, she was neither a Xiongnu left in the territory, nor a bandit, so he relaxed a little, and replied honestly: "I am ordered to hunt down the bandits here and check the goods entering and leaving. ”

"Since it's to hunt down bandits, why do you run away as soon as you see me?" Zhao Hanzhang asked: "Don't ask, how do you know that I am not a bandit?" ”

The official hurriedly smiled and said: "Who doesn't know that there is only one female general in my Yuzhou Zhao Family's army, and the girl is a divine soldier at a glance, how can she be a bandit?" ”

Zhao Hanzhang snorted coldly, pointed at a person kneeling on the side of a carriage with a horsewhip, and asked, "Come on, why are you stopped here?" Are you bandits? ”

The other party was startled and quickly denied it.

If they are identified as bandits, not to mention the goods they brought, even their lives may be confessed here, and they will die in vain.

"We were stopped here because we had to count the goods, pay the toll for the passages, and all kinds of commercial taxes," he said. ”

Zhao Hanzhang asked with interest: "What are the names?" ”

The other party quietly looked up at Zhao Hanzhang, and saw her smiling, and he couldn't see the fierceness at all, but for some reason, he was a little trembling in his heart, and his voice was lower, "Tolls, commodity value tax, carriage and horse tax, foot tax, ......"

Zhao Hanzhang heard that there is really a foot tax, and there is even a mountain forest and lake tax, because because they pass by the mountains, forests and lakes and damage the environment.

Zhao Hanzhang couldn't help nodding, this tax is really complete enough.

She smiled and asked, "Then why are you stuck here?" I see you were arguing just now, I don't know what you're arguing about? ”

The other party replied worriedly: "I, I heard that Zhao Zhijun announced that at this time, if you come to Yuzhou to do business, if you enter the territory of Yuzhou, the commercial tax will be halved, and there will be no other miscellaneous taxes, and the two commercial taxes of grain and linen will be exempted, so I came." ”

The smile on Zhao Hanzhang's face fell, he leaned forward slightly, stared at the official kneeling in front and asked, "Did you hear that?" Did your county government receive this announcement? ”

Just now I felt that Zhao Hanzhang's gentle servant was sweating on his forehead, trembling under the gaze of the five hundred cavalry, and an invisible pressure began to press on him, he couldn't bear it a little, so he said: "Small, small is acting on orders, and does not dare to be alone." ”

Zhao Hanzhang asked coldly, "Whose order?" ”

"County, county gentleman ......"

The officer's voice became lower and lower, and his body became infinitely closer to the ground.

Zhao Hanzhang snorted coldly, raised his head and glanced at the audience and said: "All the officials and soldiers of Xi'e County are allowed to the left, and the traders are to the right. ”

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and they all secretly looked up at Zhao Hanzhang to make sure that she was not joking, and then someone got up with the courage to tremble, pulled the two ox carts forward with his son, and smiled at Zhao Hanzhang with a flattering smile: "Envoy, I have all this food." ”

Zhao Hanzhang raised his chin and said to the official who was still kneeling underneath: "Don't check yet?" ”

The official didn't expect to let them check, and thought that she would let Zhao Jiajun take over.

They hurriedly got up to check, and this time the speed was fast, as long as there was no entrainment in the inspection, and it was indeed grain, they would be released.

Behind Zhao Hanzhang were more than 3,000 refugees, and two ox carts were about to pass through them, and the father and son were still very nervous.

But although the refugees looked at them, they were not excited, and when they walked to the back, the father and son also found dozens of cars behind the team, and they saw food on them.

The father and son breathed a sigh of relief and immediately slapped the cow's buttocks to make it walk quickly.

Seeing that the first team went out smoothly, everyone's minds immediately came alive, first carrying the burden, then pulling the ox cart and donkey cart, and the larger caravan fell behind.

Because the goods they brought were more miscellaneous, except for grain and linen, which were completely exempt from tax, all other goods were exempt from half tax.

But this is already a great concession for them, especially since they only charge a tax on the value of goods, and do not take any other taxes.

After working for a long time, the officials and soldiers finally sent all the stopped caravans out of the checkpoint, and then stood in front of Zhao Hanzhang with their heads down to listen to the training.

Zhao Hanzhang didn't train them, and after getting on the horse, he said: "Let's go, take me to meet your county monarch." ”

Zhao Hanzhang recalled carefully and asked, "Your county order is called Gao Cheng?" ”

The official bowed his head in sweat, "Yes." ”

Zhao Hanzhang bowed his head and said: "It's a good name." "It's just that he doesn't look like a good person in terms of what he does.
