Zhang Luo took a sip of white water.

Then I heard Zhang Shengxuan say:

"Boss An is the one who has been lifted for ten years."

"I used to be an official in Jinjiang County."

"His father was a Jinshi in the Zhengde period."

"From the position of the head of the Sixth Department of Nanjing to the scholar."

"Their family hasn't paid taxes for almost three years."

Zhang Luo understands Zhang Shengxuan's hardships.

Boss An has a prominent family.

They don't even bother with the tax collectors.

No one will enter the door.

Don't even think about collecting taxes.

Zhuangzi on the west side of the city.

See Boss An's role model.

They all learn from each other.

Start paying less or even not paying at all.

Each time, let the clerks who went to the west of the city to collect taxes.

Very nerve-wracking.

The clerk could not complete the task.

will be punished by the county government.

When it's severe.

The clerk was asked to pay for it himself.

The lack of tax and grain will be made up.

"More than a dozen acres of land, Boss An is such a non-payment law?"

Zhang Shengxuan these days.

scolded Boss An.

Shaking his head, he said:

"Every time I go, it's a set of words."

"It's said that the land is barren."

"I didn't grow food, and this year's tax will be made up next year."

This can also be counted as a reason.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that it's.

Zhang Luo asked again:

"What does this Boss An grow in his house?"

"What are the industries?"

"If his family doesn't farm."

"And what do they live on?"

"Boss An's family grows mostly medicinal herbs."

Herb?

Isn't that worth a lot of money?

"Boss An's family has a lot of dyeing workshops."

"The dyeing workshop in Jinjiang City."

"Most of them are owned by their family."

Boy.

It turned out that he was not on the right path.

They all went off the beaten track.

Zhang Luo knows now.

Why can't the taxes of these old landlords come up.

The landlords' families did not grow ordinary grain.

They grow medicinal herbs.

This is worth silver.

But I can't hand it in.

And then rely on their own industry.

Maintain the life in Zhuangzi.

The landlords could not pay their taxes.

The officers have to get their job done.

I have to go and exploit small farmers.

Thus a vicious circle has been all the way.

Pingnong's life has become more and more bitter.

Alas, it's all hard.

According to Zhang Shengxuan.

Small farmers in the county.

There is basically no surplus food left.

This Hezhi County is not an ordinary corrupt official.

He has plenty of power.

See if he can get out of the hands of the landlord.

Let's collect the taxes.

Zhang Luo first analyzed Zhang Shengxuan.

Then he said apologetically.

I don't have much to do in the silver room.

Didn't help much.

Zhang Shengxuan also knew that there was little hope.

He only asked Zhang Luo to help him say a few kind words.

Let He Zhixian not give up his seat.

He can't afford to lose his job.

Zhang Luo entered Jinjiang City.

Directly came to the Ministry of Literature and Public Affairs of the different texts.

There are a lot of children in shabby clothes in the shop.

The leader was a teenager.

The boy was in rags.

But the expression is resolute.

After saluting Zhang Shengwen.

I left with the children.

"Brother Shengwen, are these children?"

"Brother Zhang Luo is here!"

"Come on."

After entering the shop.

张胜文 says:

"Those children just now are the newsboys in charge of the "Rare and Strange Records"."

"You asked me to sell the newspaper to the homeless children."

"I found them."

"It worked really well at first."

Zhang Shengwen sighed again in a blink of an eye and said:

"But the world is unpredictable."

"Some gangsters in the city have taken a fancy to the profits of the newspaper."

Zhang Luo listened.

See what that means.

Two pennies and one penny of paper.

Although it seems to be a small profit.

But there is also a lot to see.

These gangsters and the former official pharmacies.

The beggars who grabbed the medicine were a gang of people.

He even had to rob the medicine and sell it for money.

Newspapers that have money earned will definitely not let go.

张洛 says:

"It's me who makes things simple."

"Ignoring this has made it difficult for the children."

张胜文 says:

"Brother Zhang Luo doesn't have to blame himself too much."

"The eldest of the kids."

"The children have been gathered."

"I've fought with the gangsters several times."

"They have an advantage in numbers."

"Now the gangsters don't dare to rob it?"

And what is it capable of?

This Zhang Luo didn't expect it.

The kids are quite capable.

"But those kids just came?"

Zhang Shengwen shook his head and said:

"There are too many people in the city to eat."

"The gang was driven away by them."

"And a new scourge has been brought in."

"Harvest people."

"What?"

As soon as I heard the word Caisheng.

Zhang Luo was angry.

The people of Caisheng are in the laws of the Ming Dynasty.

It's a kind of criminal.

was caught by the government.

If you are light, you will be crippled.

The most serious ones were executed by Ling Chi.

Harm to the family.

The so-called harvesting.

To put it bluntly, they are human traffickers.

They took the children away.

If it's easy to sell, just sell it.

Can't be sold.

And they beat the cripples, and let them beg.

I heard that there are still such people in Jinjiang City.

Zhang Luo asked Zhang Shengwen:

"Doesn't the government arrest this kind of person?"

Zhang Shengwen nodded and said:

"Those who harvest life also have eyes."

"Pick on the stray children."

"Children have no father and no mother."

"How can anyone report to the official."

Zhang Luo knew.

Feudal society is a no-complaint, no-check.

The children who were captured were wandering the streets.

There was no lawsuit.

Naturally, the government will not take care of it.

张胜文 says:

"The kid in the lead."

"His name is Lin San'er."

"He came to me to ask me to help report the crime."

One of Mr. Zhang's friends is a lawyer.

He also writes a lot of pleadings himself.

He knows a lot about what is in the yamen.

"I'm not a family member of the children."

"The county government will not take care of it."

Zhang Luo touched his chin and thought for a moment.

It feels like it's related to the officials' scrutiny.

As the so-called case is less.

The test results are also up.

Officials naturally want to do less.

No way!

The more Zhang Luo thought about it, the more angry he became.

"This kind of dehumanizing thing."

"No one else cares, I'll come!"

Zhang Shengwen nodded again and again.

He admired Zhang Luo's words very much.

He also reminded:

"These people are hiding in the market."

"It's moving fast."

"The government just sent people to arrest them."

"It's going to take a lot of work."

"Brother Zhang Luo, what is the best way?"

Zhang Luo thought for a while and said:

"Someone should be able to help."

"Do you know the ones who have legs and feet?"

"Help me go to Zhenhaiwei and call someone out."

张胜文 says:

"Those kids are running fast."

"You can let them try."

After speaking, Zhang Shengwen immediately walked out of the shop.

I went after the children.

Lin San'er entered the shop.

Meet Zhang Luo.

Immediately saluted respectfully.

Zhang Luo smiled and replied:

"This matter has something to do with Zhang."

"I didn't expect that."

Lin San'er shook his head and said:

"Zhang Gongzi doesn't need to blame himself."

"These wicked people have nothing to do with Zhang Gongzi."

"We also want to thank Zhang Gongzi for his great kindness."

"So that we can live."

Zhang Luo looked at this Lin San'er.

Speak a little disciplined.

A bit of a leader's temperament.
