Chapter 691 It can be determined: Cao Fang is from the Three Princes' faction

Lin Su came to his mansion, the folding fan slowly moved away, his face was exposed in the sun, and the eyes of the official in the door widened suddenly, almost at the same time, kneeling on the ground: "Lord Fuzun!" ”

The four words of Lord Fuzun came from the door, and quickly turned into a torrent, He Xingong's hand trembled, and a cup of tea almost splashed on Cao Li's face opposite......

Soon, all the chief officials of the four divisions and eight rooms gathered at the same time, and all came to the door of the mansion, and bowed deeply at the same time: "See Lord Fuzun!" ”

Lin Su touched his nose and was a little embarrassed: "I'm just going back to the government normally, wouldn't it be a joke for you to come here and spread it?" If people with good deeds talk about this, those who don't know the inside story still think that I, the prefect, will not come back a few times......"

Everyone looked at each other, my lord, are you really embarrassed to do this? Tell me, how many times a year have you been here?

Of course, in officialdom, you can't say that......

He Xingong played a round: "Everyone is dispersed, Master Cao and I want to report something to Lord Fuzun......"

Then everyone gave a salute and returned to their duties.

Lin Su took a figure-eight step in officialdom and stepped into the main hall.

He Xingong and Cao Li entered side by side, and the official sent three cups of fragrant tea and retreated to the door......

"Adults have worked hard all the way, please use tea!" He Xingong and Cao Li raised their glasses at the same time.

Lin Su picked up the teacup and smiled slightly: "Before entering the mansion, the mansion had already walked around outside, you have done a good job during this time, very good!" ”

This has come a long way, and the knowledge is great.

Why?

This lap can be large or small, and the time can be long or short.

He also called a circle for ten minutes on the embankment outside, and he paid a private visit to seven counties for three months, and he also called a circle.

He Xingong and Cao Li nodded at the same time: "Since Lord Fuzun took office, he has attached great importance to the people's livelihood and people's feelings. Xia Guan and others live in the mansion, how can they not do their duty, fortunately, everything in Nanshan Mansion is good at present......"

It only takes two words from the three adults, and Lin Su's long-term non-performance of duties has set the tone.

He values the people's livelihood and people's feelings, he went out to pay a private visit to the microservice, he slept in the open air, he worked harder than anyone else, he was more pragmatic than anyone else, I relied on ......

Lin Su was very satisfied: "Tell me about the basic situation during this time......"

Outside the Lord of He Xin Palace, he first reported the situation on the periphery......

The situation on the periphery could not be better......

The embankment was completed at the end of last year, and at that time, it was only based on the trust of adults, and everyone didn't think much about it, but now that it is completed, everyone knows how prescient adults are......

As soon as the river embankment was changed, the entire Nanshan suddenly became a paradise, countless literati and scholars rushed to it, and the reputation of Nanshan Mansion has rushed out of Zhongzhou......

The key is that the rainy season is approaching this year, if there is no embankment, who would dare to stay in the government if there is no embankment at all levels? All the rivers have been obtained, and they are worried about the upcoming rainy season, and the adults have already thought of this step, and the river embankment has become a key lock for the survival of the people......

In addition to the river embankment, more important is the livelihood of the people, last winter, the total number of people who froze to death in the whole province was less than 100, and it is necessary to know that the number of people who froze to death and starved to death in the past was tens of thousands every year, all thanks to the Lin family's advance payment of the deposit......

The biggest surprise has been launched ten days ago, it is still the Lin family, who came to Nanshan Mansion to harvest flowers, the flower farmers who planted one acre of flower land have a harvest of three taels of silver, and the most flower farmers planted more than ten acres, harvested more than thirty taels of silver, and the entire Nanshan Mansion is boiling......

Lin Su was dumbfounded, is it an immortal tablet again?

I refused on the Haining River Beach, but it was erected here, what is the matter? I look like a bodhisattva?

The more He Xingong spoke, the more excited he became......

In every prefecture, the most difficult thing is one thing, collecting taxes!

But Nanshan ...... Oh, this part is in charge of Lord Cao, Lord Cao, you can tell me......

The matter of collecting taxes is indeed an internal affair, and Cao Li is in charge of it......

Cao Li touched his beard and began to speak......

Lao Yu has also served as the prefect of the county for more than ten years, and has also served as the prefect, so he naturally knows that the most difficult thing for an official is to collect taxes. Every time a tax is collected, to be honest, it is painful for the old man.

I can't bear it, but I can't help it.

And under the rule of Lord Fuzun, the old man saw the wonders of officialdom......

Those flower farmers, competing to pay taxes, the front foot to sell flowers, the back foot to the county office to line up to pay taxes, although the adults set the standard for them is a percent tax, but this percent of taxes and fees, in just ten days, has exceeded the amount of tax issued by the state government to Nanshan.

Speaking of this, Comrade Lao Cao smiled: "Lord Fuzun, on that day, you exempted the taxes and fees of the people who repaired the river, and set a 10% tax standard for others. ”

This is actually the level of vision.

In the eyes of people in this era, whether taxes and fees can be collected depends on the level of tax rates.

Thirty percent is not enough, add to fifty percent, fifty percent is not enough, add to sixty percent, always make a fuss about the tax rate.

But Lin Su was not like this.

The tax rate under his rule is insanely low, only one percent!

And he also waved his hand, and those who participated in the repair of the river embankment were exempted from taxes and fees for the whole year!

With such a decision, even if the officials present at the time were hot-headed, the cold wind was blowing in their hearts, and everyone had a tangle in their hearts...... Adults have done their best, and they are too good for the people to be good, but taxes and fees are hard indicators on top, what should I do if I can't do it?

Now the answer is out, the tax is completed, and it is overfulfilled, half a year ahead of schedule.

Why?

Because Lin Su has made the tax base bigger!

In the past, the common people were digging in the ground, and the family couldn't dig three taels of silver a year, and they had to pay a high amount of land rent, which was more than one or two at most, and you only half a tael of fifty percent of the tax.

What now? The common people harvest ten taels of silver in a flower season, and even if the tax is only one percent, there are one or two silver.

It seems that the tax rate has been greatly reduced, but in fact, the tax collected has doubled compared to the original!

This is the benefit of making the base larger, a win-win situation for both the people and the government.

This hand made Cao Li and He Xingong really convinced.

It also made those officialdom who were waiting to see Lin Su's jokes stunned.

"Okay, the official mansion is generally clear, let's talk about other ......" Lin Su held up the teacup: "Our Lord Zhizhou, and the prince next door, is there any change?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the two adults looked at each other......

King Lu Yang's side looks normal, how can it be a normal law? Incomparably convergent!

Several princes of King Luyang, before the adults came to Nanshan, basically used Nanshan City as a back garden, and they came and went around when they had nothing to do, robbed a few people's girls, molested a few young girls, beat a few people, killed a few people, and this was the case every year, but after the adults came, especially after the adults showed their majesty in the Luyang Palace, these phenomena disappeared, and the people of the Luyang Palace, almost did not enter Nanshan, even if they came, they were just their housekeepers to purchase some materials, not to make trouble, not to cause trouble, it seems that the adults are really afraid of him.

However, there are signs that King Luyang is still recruiting people from the rivers and lakes, and he has been standing at the head of Nanshan City for a while, and occasionally he can see cultivators coming and going above the palace of King Luyang.

As for the Zhizhou side......

Cao Zhizhou still hasn't been to Nanshan Mansion, but he is extremely concerned about one thing......

"What's the matter?" Lin Su's eyes narrowed slightly.

He Xingong's eyes were also quite complicated, and he said in a low voice: "Sifang Mountain on Dongting Lake!" ”

"How is a method of attention?"

He Xingong said: "My lord may not know, there is a Zen temple on the Sifang Mountain, some time ago...... To be exact, it was the day after the adult entered the government after the year, there was a tragedy, hundreds of monks in the Sifang Zen Temple, were killed inexplicably, and the Sifang Zen Temple became an empty temple. ”

Lin Su acted ignorant of this matter and nodded: "Under the rule of Zhongzhou, hundreds of people died, although he was a monk, it was also a big case, and it was legitimate for him to be present at the scene in person, but I don't know what day Lord Zhizhou arrived at the scene?" ”

He Xingong said: "This matter is also ashamed, my Nanshan Mansion is separated from the Sifang Mountain and a river, and it is the closest house to the Sifang Mountain, but the murder occurred, I don't know anything, but the Lord Zhizhou found out first, and the next day after the murder occurred, he arrived in person in person, and afterwards, he investigated for three days, and did not allow the Nanshan Mansion and Jeju Prefecture to participate in the arrest, and all of them were taken over by the Prefecture Prefecture, which seems to be dissatisfied with Nanshan and Jeju......"

Just in time!

The governor's own people checked!

After three days in a row, I won't check it anymore!

The combination of three key information was thoroughly understood by Lin Su......

Zhizhou Cao Fang is the person of the three princes!

He is very clear about the Infernal Gate stronghold of the Sifang Mountain!

He's connected to the Infernal Gate!

Therefore, he was the first to know about the occurrence of this tragedy, and he refused to participate in the following government arrests.

Why only check for three days?

Because three days later, the detailed video of the Sifang Mountain tragedy was sent to the hands of the three princes (sent by Zhou Mei)!

He knew the whole situation, so there was no need to investigate.

Very good, Cao Fang's bottom, he has already touched it!

Lin Su looked at the sky, it was just noon......

"Two adults, although I went back to the house, but you didn't go back to the house, the big and small things in the house are still the same as yesterday, how should you deal with it, ask He Xingong if you don't decide on foreign affairs, ask Cao Li if you don't decide on internal affairs, go ahead!"

Lin Su patted his thigh and stood up.

He Xingong and Old Man Cao hurriedly stood up: "Since the adults are back......

"The butt of this house is pointed, you can't sit in the office, you don't bother me with the shit in the house!" Lin Su interrupted them and went out.

The two looked at each other and sighed at the same time......

This sigh has an element of helplessness, but also an element of pleasure......

Although it is true that they are very hard, it is not particularly hard to be an official under Lin Su, because he has solved the most difficult thing.

What's more, the status of the two of them is what the master and the main secretary of the world dream of, the prefect doesn't care about things at all, and they have the final say in big and small things.

They are not prefects, they are better than prefects.

At this point in life, what more can a husband ask for?

Lin Su went out of the prefect's mansion, and someone outside greeted him.

Who is this?

Dressed quite luxuriously, his face was full of red......

The man stepped forward a few steps: "My lord, you are back!" ”
