"Official?" Xiao Er's face showed a disgusted expression, and he said helplessly: "Our county magistrate of Taiping County, in addition to bullying the people in Yurou Township, you expect him to do something good for our people!" In the past, the tax was 30 taxes and 1, but now it has become 15 taxes and 1, and the county order is not satisfied, and a poll tax is also levied, so everyone can't even eat enough every year, and they have to tighten their belts to live. ”

The more Xiao Er thought about it, the more he sighed, and said with a sad face: "Now there is a big flood again, and the days in the future will be even more difficult!" ”

"No matter how bad the county order is, the flood will always have to be cleared, otherwise where would so many people live? If these people are allowed to flee to other places, how will he collect the poll tax? Qin Wan said.

"Well, maybe." Xiao Er felt that what Qin Wan said made sense, but he didn't believe that the county order could do anything.

After eating noodles, Qin Wan paid for the meal and room and left the inn.

As soon as she went out, she saw that the officials of the county government were breaking into the shops from house to house on the street.

"The county decree decrees, there is a sudden flood in Taiping County, and every shop in the city must donate ten taels of silver, and those who violate the order will be fifty canes and put them in prison!"

Ten taels of silver!

Qin Wan just lived in the inn, and the room money plus the bath water and the bowl of noodles were only more than 50 yuan in total.

Ten taels of silver, which is 10,000 yuan, this inn has to receive two hundred guests like her to earn it, not counting the cost.

This prefectural order is simply outrageous!

"Don't, the villain is doing a small business, where can he take out ten taels of silver at once!"

"Call me! Hit until he pays the money! ”

"Daddy!"

The cries and screams were endless.

"Write down his name, and if you can't hand over the money tomorrow, I'll take your shop and put you in jail!"

When the officers finished scolding, they turned and went to the next house.

In the blink of an eye, it was another crying father and mother......

In the evening, the officers of the county government took over the work and handed over all the silver taels collected to the county order.

The county magistrate Xu Zhi looked at these white flowers and flowers, and suddenly bloomed happily, "How many families are still confiscated?" ”

"Back to the master, except for a few who are really poor and can't take out the silver, the shops are basically finished."

"Isn't that unacceptable?" Xu Zhi is very regretful.

"Master, you can call on the local gentry to donate silver, and you can earn more from them!" The head-catcher Zhao Da flattered and said.

When Xu Zhi heard this, he smiled, "After the matter is completed, I will inevitably reward you, master!" ”

"Don't worry, sir, the small one will be done properly for you!"

After Zhao Da left, Xu Zhi ran to the study, put all the silver into a secret compartment behind the bookshelf, and left satisfied.

It wasn't long before the door to the study opened silently.

Qin Wan entered the study and opened the dark compartment according to the method Xu Zhi just now.

The dark compartment was four feet in size, filled with large and small boxes, and Qin Wan didn't open it to see, he directly waved his hand and put all the things inside into his own space.

Then he slipped out of the study silently.

Xingsheng Inn.

The boss, who had just been looted for ten taels of silver, sighed there.

"What kind of world is this, I really can't live!"

"Uncle, why don't we go, it's not in Taiping County, Taiping County is not peaceful at all, that county order is really a dog official!" Xiao Er said angrily.

"Easy to say, where can we go? In this world, it is not easy anywhere. ”

As they spoke, suddenly, with a "whoosh", a short arrow landed on a table in the inn.

"Ouch, my mother!"

The boss was startled and fell on his ass.

Xiao Er had the courage to look over and said, "Uncle, there's a note on it!" ”

He drew the arrow and took out the note.

"The county order looted the silver of the shops in my hands, don't make a noise, tonight, take everyone to the Fenggui Pavilion outside the West City Gate to get the silver. - Otherworldly. ”

Xiao Er finished reading the above content, and asked the boss excitedly: "Uncle, is this someone doing chivalrous deeds?" ”

"I'd rather believe it, let's go and inform everyone!"

In order not to attract the attention of the soldiers guarding the city, the merchants quietly went out of the city from the four city gates, and in the evening, the Fenggui Pavilion outside the west city gate.

At this moment, there are mountains of grain in the Fenggui Pavilion.

Qin Wan dressed in black and masked, walked out of the Fenggui Pavilion, put the silver aside, sat down and said, "You take turns to step forward, report your shop number to receive the silver, if one of you cheats, you will never get the silver again." ”

Everyone said yes again and again, and respectfully stepped forward to receive the silver.

Ten taels per household, and soon the men had all the money.

After receiving the money, they didn't leave, but looked at the mountain of grain, curious to see what this "otherworldly" wanted to do.

"In addition to the silver looted by you this time, I also found a lot of silver taels in the treasury of the county order, and now I have exchanged all those things for grain!" Qin Wan said: "The owner of the Xingsheng Inn." ”

"The little ones are here." The innkeeper hurriedly stood up.

"This food is not for you, but you can get a portion of it. There are a total of 200,000 catties of grain here, of which 100,000 catties are distributed to the common people in the city according to the population, and the remaining 100,000 catties. ”

Hearing Qin Wan's words, everyone was moved to tears.

Oh my God, they've met a great guy!

"We can do it!" Everyone said in unison.

Qin Wan said: "I will hand all this over to the owner and Xiao Er of the Xingsheng Inn, you must all listen to them!" You've all seen what I'm capable of, and if I let me know that someone is fishing in troubled waters, I won't show mercy! ”

Saying that, Qin Wan gave the innkeeper an extra money bag, and said: "This is the cost of building a porridge shed, it is up to you to decide, you don't need to let people know how much silver is in it, so as not to cause you trouble, but if you use this silver for personal gain, I will definitely come to you for liquidation." ”

"Don't worry, girl, the little one won't let you down!" The innkeeper said firmly.

Xiao Er next to him looked at Qin Wan with admiration.

"Don't do it, find a place to hide this grain, don't let the people of the government know."

After Qin Wan finished speaking, he didn't say anything more and turned to leave.

Thinking of the silver taels she had scavenged from that secret grid, she couldn't help but be shocked.

Three years of Qing Governor's Mansion, 100,000 snowflakes of silver.

A Qing official can earn so much silver, let alone a corrupt and corrupt official like Xu Zhi?

In that small dark compartment, there were hundreds of thousands of taels of silver!

Leaving Fenggui Pavilion, the effect of the painkillers he had eaten before seemed to be exhausted, and Qin Wan's stomach seemed to be twisted.

She found a place to change into clean aunt pants on the ground, took another painkiller, and silently rushed back to the cave of the exile team, ordered more than a dozen strong men led by Xiao Hao and Xiao Jun to come out, and said, "You come out with me." ”
