0055 Undercurrents are turbulent
Lin Huaiying sighed and said, "It's really difficult in the world!" Now that land annexation is getting worse and worse, there are fewer and fewer people who can pay taxes! And the soldiers are hungry, and the nobles and officers are even more happy to drink the blood of the soldiers! The army of the nine sides still has some combat effectiveness! But their salaries and rice are also starting to be in arrears! No matter how you look at it, it looks like the building is about to collapse! But now everyone is busy fighting for power and profit, and they are turning a blind eye to these situations! ”
Zhang Qida said categorically: "That's why we have to support Zhang Taiyue to change the law!" First help him make a fuss about the land, dig out the hidden fields and hidden households, and these taxes will be enough for the imperial court! When he stabilizes these things, we will find a way to start with the industrial and commercial mining tax! ”
Lin Huaiying said in surprise: "Start with the commercial tax and mining tax!" Do you really dare to say that you are not afraid of death and no place to be buried! Once you do it, no, once you let people know what you think, that's what a real thousand people are referring to! ”
Zhang Qida said solemnly: "Shrinking from self-reflection, although tens of millions of people are gone!" ”
Lin Huaiying looked at the glint in Zhang Qida's eyes and said slowly: "I'm willing to toss with you, anyway, I have no children and no daughters, so I don't have to worry about it!" But how long can the two of us keep the current situation going on? I'm afraid that we won't wait for Zhang Taiyue to clean up the fields, and we will return to the west! ”
As soon as Lin Huaiying said this, Zhang Qida suddenly lost his momentum, and after a while, he said with difficulty: "Do your best!" As long as we are worthy of our ancestors and worthy of the court! ”
After he said this, the study was completely silent, only the curling green smoke from the incense burner swirled in the room!
Just when Zhang Qida and Lin Huaiying were silently facing each other, the three carriages outside Zhuangzi had already taken to the road and went their separate ways. But at the back, Hu Zhiyu's coachman saw Liang Xihan's coachman in front of him make a gesture to slow down, and he immediately understood that it should be the old man Liang in front who had something to discuss with his master, so he gently pulled the reins of the horse to slow down the speed of the carriage.
The two carriages slowly ran forward for some distance and then came to a stop. Then the two men got out of the carriage one after another. After sorting out their clothes, they came together, Hu Zhiyu said: "Now that Brother Yuelin has gone away, what does Brother Runze want to tell me?" ”
Liang Xihan said with a smile: "Are you so sure that I have something to tell you?" ”
Hu Zhiyu pouted and said: "In front of my carriage is your carriage, so as soon as the coachman slows down, I know that Brother Runze has something to tell me!" ”
Liang Xihan laughed and said, "Brother Xian is really sharp-minded!" Brother Wei does have something to discuss with Brother Xian, but it is not good for Brother Yue Lin to know, so he made this decision! ”
Hu Zhiyu raised a finger and said, "Then don't talk yet, let me guess!" I guess Brother Runze wants to talk to me about how I oppose this resolution, right? ”
Liang Xihan shook his head and said, "How is this possible!" The rules of our plum blossom club are agreed upon, and we must implement them seriously, and we have done a good job for my brother! ”
Hu Zhiyu was a little confused when he heard this, so he said: "Could it be that I guessed wrong?" I decided to refuse your request! So tell me, what the hell is going on? ”
Liang Xihan put his hands behind his back and motioned for Hu Zhiyu to follow him and walk forward slowly, and said at the same time: "Now that Brother Buyuan's actions are becoming more and more pedantic, many people below are very dissatisfied with some of their decisions, and I don't know what Brother Xian thinks?" ”
Hu Zhiyu said: "Brother Runze, you and I are both one of the five leaders, so it's not good to criticize them like this!" ”
Liang Xihan said disapprerovitically: "It's just a matter of facts!" Besides, don't forget, the five leaders of the club are just elected from the Chrysanthemum Society! If you really annoy the people below, our life will not be easy! ”
Hu Zhiyu said disdainfully: "What's the big deal, they can still overturn me?" ”
Liang Xihan said with a smile: "Really? But don't forget, there is another rule of the association, as long as more than half of the people agree, the head of the club can be removed and elected separately! ”
Liang Xihan saw that Hu Zhiyu's eyes flickered and did not speak, so he continued to pursue and said: "If you continue to implement the resolution this time, I am afraid that your losses will not be small, there are many people with the same status as you in the Chrysanthemum Society, I am afraid they will be unwilling!" Beware of them taking their anger out on you! ”
Hu Zhiyu said: "What can I do? This is our highest resolution! ”
Speaking of this, he paused for a moment and said: "Actually, I can still negotiate with them this time, after all, the world belongs to the Zhu family, and if you plant the land of the old Zhu family, you will always have to pay taxes to others!" But what I'm most worried about is that the imperial court's hand in collecting taxes has slipped, what if I start thinking about collecting industrial and commercial mining taxes? When the time comes, the imperial court will arm the army with the silver collected from the field tax, and we will not even have a chance to resist! ”
Liang Xihan also nodded and said, "I'm also worried about this matter!" I knew Brother Buyuan earlier than you, and of course I know him better! I bet he's got what you just said! ”
Hu Zhiyu continued: "There is also Lin Huaiying, a stupid person, who is full of books should be like this, should be like that!" Don't you read a meal? ”
Liang Xihan nodded and said, "Yes, so I plan to contact some people in the Chrysanthemum Club to replace Zhang Buyuan!" He is too old, and he has been sitting in the position of head of the club for too long, so he should go home to recuperate! ”
Hu Zhiyu asked instead: "What should Lin Huaiying do?" ”
Liang Xihan said slowly: "It is said that a gentleman can be bullied, then Lin Huaiying is a gentleman, it doesn't hurt to stay, there is always a way to contain him!" You must know that the academy is his lifeblood, as long as you make some articles on it, you won't worry about him not cooperating! ”
Hu Zhiyu raised his head at this time and said, "Brother Runze, you won't be eyeing Zhang Buyuan's position, right?" ”
Liang Xihan said calmly: "That's right! And I might as well tell you that I already have a candidate for the new addition! ”
Hu Zhiyu thought for a while, squinted his eyes and said, "It can't be from the northwest, right?" I know you've been in a hot fight with the people in the Northwest lately! ”
Liang Xihan nodded and said, "That's right, it's a person from the northwest, and his surname is Zhang Tianfeng, and his expression is Junqi." ”
Hu Zhiyu said: "I know that he entered the Chrysanthemum Club nine years ago, and he is a very capable person!" ”
Liang Xihan stopped and said: "Now you know, I have the support of the northwest, plus the people you and I can contact, I can definitely get more than half of the votes on my mobile phone, how about it?" It's time to make up your mind, right? ”
Hu Zhiyu didn't say anything, just stretched out his hand. And Liang Xihan knowingly stretched out his hand and high-fived Hu Zhiyu, and then the two of them boarded the carriage and left without a word.
