134 Circulars

Recently, the news that the young master of the Luo family enshrined a Junshan golden turtle and gambled on prosperity simply spread out of the way.

Yueyang County, and even the entire Yuezhou Prefecture have set off a wave of buying Junshan golden turtles.

However, the thing itself is rare and precious, and it is still a unique specialty on Junshan Island and other places, and it has been hyped up by gamblers from all over Yuezhou Mansion to sky-high prices for a while.

The two officials who came to the base of the city wall to put up a list also kept gossiping about this:

"I thought that Lord Yue's list today would cause an uproar, but I didn't expect to be cut off by the young master of the Luo family! Do you think this is an example of 'those who are in power can't fight the Locke family'? ……”

"Fuck you! ——" The other official smiled and slapped his companion's chest: "Luo Gongzi's matter is a bit mysterious, which is why it has spread so widely; But the matter of the magistrate is the food pocket of all the people! ——”

The official at the beginning pouted: "Do you want to gamble?" Which thing is more hot? ”

"Who has this spare time, let's hurry up and be on an errand! Otherwise, let's see if Lord Yue can masturbate you and me......"

"Hehe, how can he have this ability! ……”

After the two servants had gone away, the people who had set up stalls nearby gathered around and squinted at the words on the city wall.

But there are too many words, there are many illiterate people who can't fully understand, a guy who sells oil can't bear it, he gently patted the tall young man wearing a hat and a coarse linen suit next to him, looked up at his unclear face, and asked, "Young man, what is written on it?!" ——”

The man listened to the voice very young, and heard a little satisfaction in the voice: "Old man, this is a "Notice" ......"

"What is the Circular?" The old man who sold oil looked confused.

A well-informed vendor who traveled from south to north stood up and brushed his sense of existence: "This big guy doesn't know!" The imperial court is now writing in this form! Sometimes some major events need to be told to the world, so what is the name...... Uh, "Announcement"!

For matters such as this that are well known in a small area, you have to use the "Circular" ......"

"Oh...... I remember, some time ago, there was an amnesty for the world, isn't it just the "Announcement" that I used......"

"That's right! You are really old-hearted, and you understand very quickly! ……”

The old oil seller continued: "But...... What is written in this "Circular"......"

The "......" traders, who were not very literate, were dumbfounded.

"I'll read it to everyone! - "In the end, it was the young man in the hat who asked the old man who sold oil at the beginning, and volunteered to read the dense handwriting on the notice:

Yueyang County is located in the north of Hunan Province, with Dongting in the west and the Yangtze River in the north......

However, in recent years, the wind and rain have been smooth, but the grain has been in short harvest, and even the rations of the Huguang sergeants have to be borrowed from neighboring counties, and no one from the gentry family has come forward;

Now Benzhi County suddenly received an order, Warat is ready to move in the north, and it is necessary to make preparations for war and hoard grain and grass in time, and our people should be more united in the army and the people, know each other and sympathize with each other, and jointly resist foreign aggression.

Moreover, the establishment of troops to defend the people, and the payment of taxes to raise soldiers, the same in ancient and modern times. Thou wilt use the strength of thy soldiers to protect the territory, and An can bear to sit back and watch them starve, but without a trace of compassion?

I heard that a small border county was anxious for justice and justice, and they paid all the money and grain, and even donated surplus rice and grain to support the front line, leaving only a few rations for themselves and swearing to live and die with the front-line soldiers; The small county is still like this, but my Yueyang county is still in the county to divert food, I am really ashamed!

Although the misappropriation of rice and grain can solve the urgent need for food needed for armaments for a while, it does not mean that everyone's arrears of grain and rice can not be paid. At that time, not only will Yueyang County be disgraced, but you will also be infamy.

Whether you choose to be infamous or not, please think carefully.

This official has been in office for more than a month, and knows that the loss of grain and rice collected in this county is one bucket per stone, and even such loss is very common; But now the house is kind-hearted, and we are not allowed to exploit the people, so Benzhi County is particularly lenient:

Where the people of this county pay this year's grain and rice, only five liters of rice are lost in one bucket, and only five liters of rice are lost in each stone; In the old year's rice grain, a bucket only collects and loses three combinations, and each stone loses three liters. This move is only to collect sufficient food supplies, maintenance and consumption costs, and the county is not stained.

You should be considerate of the heart of Benzhi County to "reduce consumption" for the people, and will pay all the new and old grain and rice, so that not only the soldiers in the military camp can enjoy the joy of full food, but also the Benchi County is very grateful for the gifts of the gentry and the people.

But if you are still unreasonable, unable to distinguish between right and wrong, and still resist paying money and grain, Benzhi County should still levy it according to the loss of a bucket, and only with severe punishment and strict laws can you deal with you and other stubborn gentry and common people.

Don't think that you are fighting against your own officials here, in fact, you are fighting against the "Imperial Court"!

The people, tributes, prisoners, and students were all looked up to by the people, but they took the lead in arrears of money and food, resisted payment and refused to donate, and the punishment was heavier than that of ordinary people; Benzhi County knows that the fear of the people to resist paying money and grain lies in the heroic and powerful local sticks and toast officials, and Benzhi County hereby promises to you: treat everyone equally, and never tolerate it!

If the rice grain is not paid on time, the gentry will submit a document to participate in the impeachment, and the people and students will be asked to learn the Tao to win fame; Traitors and beetles are imprisoned according to the law, and those who are stubborn are immediately killed with a rod! And the grain and rice that should be paid under his name, even if the family is broken and killed, must be recovered in full, and he will not regret it at that time!

The official is dull, he lives in a high position in the county, and has the responsibility of changing customs and educating people's hearts, and is related to the gentry and the common people. The county is willing to seek peace and contentment for the people, and establish a simple and kind style.

Paying for food is what the branch should do, and the county does not intend to demand from the people. Could it be that you are all wood-hearted, and refuse to listen to the good words of Benzhi County?

You and other gentry and people, please try to think carefully in the middle of the night or at dawn, and you will be able to understand the heart of the county to love and protect the people, and live up to the ardent expectations of the county......

After reading the first thing under the hat, Yue Qi still has some ability, and he knows how to talk about things in the north.

In fact, it is understandable for him to say this, after all, there are no major conflicts in the north, and there are constant skirmishes, and there is often a bit of bloodshed. He is not exaggerating to say that......

Moreover, he showed great righteousness to the common people who were unwilling to pay money and food, and put the really bad gentry and beetle officials on the surface......
