"Old man Wang, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense. Your Wang family has been entrenched in Fancheng for several generations. The silver taels have not been less, but they have never paid taxes, and now the evidence is conclusive, how can it be said to be humiliating? ”

Zhang Yuanliang's face was cold, and he scolded: "If you don't pay taxes, you will be complicit in rebellion." Do you want to rebel? ”

"Rebellion?"

Old Man Wang laughed and said disdainfully: "A mere patrol department is not worthy of saying such things." Master Zhang, you underestimate my Fancheng family too much, and you overestimate yourself. ”

Zhang Yuanliang sneered: "Oh, how did I hear that the Fancheng family, except for the Zhao family, has been raided by my patrol department. ”

Old Man Wang's eyes flashed with essence, and he said: "Those families who have been raided are to blame, and they can't blame anyone. As for my royal family, they are not corrupt, they just haven't paid taxes. ”

Zhang Yuanliang sneered and said, "Didn't pay taxes? ”

"Master Zhang, I advise you not to touch my Wang family. Otherwise, ......" Old Man Wang stared at Zhang Yuanliang, and his eyes burst out with cold murderous intent, "My Wang family, although it is not as powerful as you, it is also a Fancheng family. ”

Zhang Yuanliang's eyes shrank, and he said coldly: "Threaten me? ”

"Yes!" Old Man Wang said frankly.

"Then try it!" After Zhang Yuanliang finished speaking, he waved his hand to the subordinates behind him.

"Wait!" Old Man Wang shouted.

"Huh! It's good to be interested. Zhang Yuanliang smiled lightly.

Old Man Wang took a deep breath and said helplessly: "Pay taxes!" ”

Zhang Yuanliang smiled: "That's right!" Mr. Wang, don't worry, I, Zhang, have always been fair in handling cases. Your royal family can hand over 200,000 taels of silver tickets. ”

The corners of Old Man Wang's mouth twitched, and he wanted to slap Zhang Yuanliang to death.

Zhang Yuanliang's appetite is also too great.

A village's field dared to offer 200,000 taels of silver.

It's a lion's mouth!

"I'm not going to give you that much money!" Old Man Wang flatly refused.

"Then I'm sorry. I was ordered to investigate the Fancheng tax. Zhang Yuanliang said: "If you don't want to pay the money, then wait for jail." ”

"You dare!" Old Man Wang said angrily.

Zhang Yuanliang smiled and disagreed.

At this time, Mr. Wang suddenly said: "Lord Zhang, we can discuss and reduce taxes." ”

Zhang Yuanliang squinted his eyes and looked at Old Man Wang.

Old man Wang said: "How about reducing five copper coins per mu? ”

Zhang Yuanliang smiled: "Old man Wang, do you think I'm stupid?" ”

"One acre of paddy field can produce eight buckets of corn and six stones of rice a year. One acre of paddy field, the annual harvest is about 5,000 catties of millet and 4,000 catties of corn. And in the granary of your royal family, there are about four million catties of grain stored. If all of them are exchanged for city silver taels, I am afraid it will become three million taels of silver. ”

"Huh!"

Zhang Yuanliang smiled mockingly and said, "Old man Wang, your Wang family is really rich in the world." ”

Old Man Wang's face trembled, and he didn't say a word.

Zhang Yuanliang continued: "Not only is the grain abundant. All kinds of cloth, medicinal herbs, and everything is available. Old man Wang, where did you get all these things! ”

"It's your business!"

Old Man Wang said unceremoniously.

"Your attitude is to toast and not eat and drink?"

Zhang Yuanliang squinted his eyes and said coldly.

Old Man Wang snorted coldly: "My Wang family, I'm not afraid of things!" Kind of caught me. ”

Zhang Yuanliang smiled contemptuously and said, "Since this is the case, then I will fulfill you!" Someone! Search the house for me! ”

"Yes!"

With a sonorous sound, a team of tiger dragon guards rushed into the room and began rummaging through things.

"Found it."

A moment later, Tiger Longwei found the gold ingots and jewelry that had been hidden.

There were five chests of gold ingots, worth 1,500,000 taels of silver.

Jewelry is even more precious and exceptional.

The price is as high as 700,000 taels of silver!

Zhang Yuanliang looked at Old Man Wang with a smile and said, "Old Man Wang, it seems that your Wang family is not shallow!" How long have you been looting these things? ”

Old Man Wang said coldly: "Lord Zhang, don't deceive people too much. ”

Zhang Yuanliang smiled and said, "Old man Wang, you are wrong. It's not that I'm bullying people, it's you breaking the law. ”

"You!"

Old Man Wang was angry.

"Old man Wang, if you pay taxes obediently, we can still be safe. Otherwise, hehe, I will keep your royal chickens and dogs. Zhang Yuanliang said with a smile.

Old man Wang gritted his teeth and said, "The surname is Zhang, you are forcing me to fight a fish and break the net." Believe it or not, even if I die, I will drag you back. ”

Zhang Yuanliang was not afraid at all, and said: "I am looking forward to your hard work. If you really work hard, it will definitely not be me who is unlucky. If you don't believe me, try it and see who dies first? ”

Old Man Wang's face turned pale, gritted his teeth, and said, "You won!" ”

Zhang Yuanliang smiled and said, "Isn't this over!" ”

"Lord Zhang, don't you have to pay taxes? Hurry up and write a note. Old Man Wang suppressed his anger and said coldly.

Zhang Yuanliang nodded and said, "Old man Wang, don't be impatient, I'll write you a note." ”

Brush Brush Brush!

Zhang Yuanliang quickly wrote a note.

Old Man Wang read it carefully, and after confirming that there was no problem, he signed and drew the pledge.

"Master Zhang, can I leave now?" Old Man Wang asked with a gloomy face.

"Let's go!" Zhang Yuanliang waved his hand.

Old Man Wang immediately left with his family.

After Zhang Yuanliang saw them leaving, he ordered: "Invite all the wealthy gentry and noble families in Fancheng to come over." ”

"Yes!"

Soon, many wealthy gentry gathered in front of the county yamen.

When Zhang Yuanliang handed the Fancheng tax list to these wealthy gentlemen, everyone was stunned.

Zhang Yuanliang actually asked the wealthy gentry of Fancheng to pay taxes!

"Zhang Yuanliang, are you crazy?"

"You are a sesame official, why do you want us to pay taxes?"

"Do you know the consequences of that?"

A crowd of people shouted.

"Brush, brush!"

A group of Tiger Dragon Guards suddenly rushed in.

Zhang Yuanliang looked indifferent and said: "If you don't want to pay taxes, Lord Ben won't stop you, I just hope that when you suffer in the future, you won't cry." ”

Many wealthy gentry panicked.

They are all smart people, so they naturally understand what Zhang Yuanliang means by this.

This is clearly a warning to them!

Zhang Yuanliang wants to use the power of the Tiger Dragon Guard to suppress them, and whoever disobeys will be killed!

This is a naked conspiracy!

But they can't resist!

"I pay my taxes!"

"I'll hand it over too!"

"It's bad luck for the old man!"

Soon, a group of wealthy gentry succumbed to the shock of the tiger dragon guard and began to pay taxes.

In just half a burnt time, Fancheng's financial situation has changed dramatically.

Originally, the monthly tax was levied in accordance with the laws of the market.

But today, Zhang Yuanliang asked the powerful families of Fancheng to pay a tax of 500,000 taels of gold every month.

Zhang Yuanliang showed a look of satisfaction.
