With Meng Yi's help, the tax yamen's statistics of all the shops in the city went smoothly.

Coupled with the relationship between Zhang Liang and Ran Fang, those shopkeepers were also very cooperative, and without the slightest intention of stealing and cheating, they took out all the taxes they should pay.

Because of this incident, Zhang Liang had a very formal excuse to go to Ran Fang.

Although he had only been away from here for a few days, when he came back again, there was a sense of vicissitudes.

The guard at the door greeted him with a smile as before, which gave him a little comfort in his heart.

As soon as he walked into the door, he met Liu Bang, who came back from errands, and the two glanced at each other and smiled.

"Brother Zhang, I haven't seen you for a few days, why does it feel like a long time has passed?"

"Welcome back!"

This kind of polite words, facing Liu Bang's deliberate eyes, Zhang Liang immediately understood what he meant.

He also smiled and replied, "That's right." ”

"I haven't seen him for a few days, and Brother Liu looks radiant."

"I heard that your lady has come to Xianyang in the past few days, congratulations."

As soon as these words came out, Liu Bang also smiled a little embarrassedly.

He has a very good relationship with Lu Pheasant, although Lu Pheasant married him, he did not have the slightest frame in life, and he was also very good to him.

Therefore, when he learned that Lu Pheasant had come all the way to find him, he was still a little shocked in his heart, but he did not publicize the matter everywhere.

I didn't expect Zhang Liang to know, it seems that Zhang Liang really cares about him.

"Hehe, yes."

"She just came here, and she was a little unaccustomed to the water and soil, so she recuperated in a yard."

"You're here to find an adult today, aren't you?"

Seeing that Liu Bang didn't continue to say what his wife meant, Zhang Liang stopped asking after him.

He smiled and nodded, and replied, "yes." ”

"In the past few days, the affairs of the tax yamen have been completed, and there will be time to come to the adults."

"Moreover, next door to my courtyard lives Miao Yutang, I want to ask the adults what they think."

Liu Bang nodded and pointed in a direction to indicate that Ran Fang was there.

Then, together with Zhang Liang, he walked in the direction where Ran Fang was.

When he saw Zhang Liang, Ran Fang was also a little surprised.

"See your Excellency."

Zhang Liang stepped forward and bowed to Ran Fang in a regular manner, just like when he was a guard before.

This represents his attitude, no matter where he is, he will always think of Ran Fang and do things.

Seeing this, there was not the slightest surprise on Ran Fang's face, he put down the bow and arrow in his hand, sat on the stone bench on the side, and then spoke: "Okay, there is no need to be so polite." ”

"Say whatever you want."

Seeing that Ran Fang's attitude was the same as before, and he didn't think that his identity had changed and he was very alienated from himself, Zhang Liang was a lot more relieved.

He first told everything that had happened in the past few days, as well as the matter of him and Sang Hua looking for Meng Yi, and he did not hide everything.

In the end, he mentioned the fact that Miao Yutang lived next door to him.

"According to your lordship, could this matter be deliberately done by His Majesty?"

"The subordinates have investigated, Miao Yutang has been living here, if he is afraid that he is deliberate, it is impossible, but whether His Majesty has a deep meaning, the subordinates can't guess."

Ran Fang thought for a moment, thinking that when he was at the auction before, the attitude of the three of them was not obvious.

But at the same time, he also knew that these people's means of making money were cut off, how could they give up?

And as far as he knew, after their salt ponds were purchased by the imperial court, each family was still thinking of ways to get these back.

But now that they are doing business in Xianyang City, it is a little difficult to guess.

However, in his opinion, Ying Zheng has always had ideas in doing things, and the affairs of the DPRK and China have not been able to hide from his eyes.

Now that Zhang Liang is placed next door to Miao Yutang, it means that he must have discovered something.

"It's up to you to make your own decisions."

"Now that you are also an official in the DPRK, you should have your own judgment in doing things."

Although this is said in a distant way, the meaning is also very clear, that is, Zhang Liang's guess is right.

It's just that Ran Fang can't guess His Majesty's mind like this, and he can't provide any help, only Zhang Liang can do it himself.

"Well, my subordinates understand."

"I heard that the adults let the people also be farms, can Brother Liu be busy with those things?"

Looking at his earnest eyes, everyone present understood that Zhang Liang still wanted to continue to follow Ran Fang.

Liu Bang didn't know if it was deliberate, he opened his mouth and said, "Don't worry, I don't even need to do this." ”

"That Chang Yuanliang came here last time, and this matter was mentioned by him, so the adults handed over these things to him to do."

"I have already started to do it in the past few days, and it is said that he also has some prestige in the village, and there are many people who want to raise their own at home."

"In this way, there is no shortage of wool and duck feathers in this textile factory."

Hearing this, Zhang Liang's eyes flashed with obvious loss.

However, he soon came to his senses.

"I see, then I'm relieved."

"It's just...... Since they can also sell their breeding for money, should there be some changes to the matter of the people's tax collection? ”

Hearing this, Ran Fang suddenly looked at Zhang Liang with a look, it was really the reaction of the slave owner.

"They can only raise a few of them, and how much can they sell for a few dollars?"

"The people in the village, unless someone has built a certain scale of farm, they don't have to collect taxes in other cases."

"It must be a good thing for Great Qin that the people can become rich, you have to think about how to help them from time to time, instead of thinking about exploiting them all the time."

"There are also those taxes in small business cities, don't mention them for the time being, and wait until later."

This time, Zhang Liang also came for this matter.

The affairs of the small business market are boiling in the city, but no one has mentioned the matter of tax collection, and Zhang Liang, as the second-in-command of the tax yamen, naturally has to worry about it.

But because the small business market was brought up by Ran Fang, if he directly took people to collect taxes without Ran Fang's consent, I am afraid that it will annoy Ran Fang.

Unexpectedly, Ran Fang would not let him collect taxes.

Thinking of the previous incident of Ran Fang asking Yingzheng to cancel the people's taxes and forced labor, he felt that it was excusable.

"That'...... What about the food courts in the city? ”

"Don't the merchants in there charge taxes either?"

Ran Fang looked at him with mentally retarded eyes, and couldn't help but wonder why he thought he was suitable for doing this before?

"The merchants in those food courts are all established businessmen, how can the people compare with them?"

"So, when you go to them to collect taxes, you can naturally include the income from the food court."

"As for the small vendors along the food court, there is no need to care."
