At noon, Yang Yulong and his family of three were eating lunch, when suddenly the village chief came to the house, saying that Master Xu from the county government had come to the village with someone to collect taxes, and he wanted to collect taxes from Yang Ruofeng by name.

"Feng girl, didn't our family pay all this year's taxes last month, why did they come to our house to collect taxes again?" Song Yuniang asked puzzled.

"Mother, I don't know what's going on with this. Yang Ruofeng put down the dishes and chopsticks, and it was also in the clouds, every time the county government came to collect taxes, their family couldn't come up with the money, even if they smashed the pot and sold iron, they would give them the money, "Do they think that our mother and daughter are in our family... It's a bully, our family collects taxes every day. ”

For all kinds of miscellaneous taxes, the people dare not pay, but they come to collect taxes every month, who can stand this, isn't this to force the people to death?

"Collect taxes like this, how can we live as ordinary people. Song Yuniang sighed sadly.

Yang Yulong was furious, and he didn't have the heart to eat, and said, "Village chief, take me out to meet this group of stinky people who want to eat." ”

Yang Yulong said and went out with the village chief.

"Brother, I'll go too. Yang Ruofeng followed and went out.

When he came to the village, a sharp-beaked monkey-cheeked master, with a paper fan in his hand, looked majestic, and led five fat-headed and big-eared servants to look at Yang Yulong and Yang Ruofeng who came over.

As soon as Yang Ruofeng saw this extremely discordant scene, she gritted her teeth angrily, and she could only swallow her breath in normal times.

But today, with the support of a powerful brother, Yang Ruofeng also became bolder, so he said angrily to the master: "Master Xu, didn't our family pay taxes last month, why do you have to collect taxes from our family?"

Master Xu raised his eyebrows, grinned and said with a big mouth full of yellow teeth: "Yang Ruofeng, your family's taxes were indeed paid last month, but from this month, your family has one more tax?"

"The tax money is increasing every year, are you still finished?" Yang Ruofeng said with a face.

Master Xu completely ignored the feelings of others, but said with a smile: "Yang Ruofeng, the tax we came to collect today is by no means an empty and random increase, it is stipulated in black and white on the national law. ”

"What kind of tax makes you rush like this, you don't even let go of the time for people to eat lunch, are you so short of money?" Yang Yulong asked angrily forward, and when he saw their appearance, he knew that he was here to find fault.

If it was really for the public, the formation was very magnificent, but looking at them like this, it was a bit sneaky.

Master Xu saw Yang Yulong, who was angry and angry, and asked in a daze, "Who are you, why are you in Yang Ruofeng's house?"

Yang Ruofeng's crisp voice said loudly: "This is my brother who disappeared fifteen years ago, he came back today, you don't want to bully me again in the future." ”

"It turned out to be your brother, that's easy to do, today this master will tell you two brothers and sisters about the new taxes in your family this month. Master Xu gave full play to his oily tone and said slowly, "What about this tax...... Girl poll tax?"

As soon as these words came out, the villagers present were shocked, the girl's poll tax, what kind of tax is this, it sounds a little strange when it sounds like this name.

Now, in order to increase tax revenue, don't you even want to be disciplined, dig out your mind, and come up with any shameless tax ideas.

"Girl poll tax, what a mess of taxes, you guys are just changing tricks... Grab the money. "Yang Yulong had also heard of all kinds of taxes in his previous life, but what the hell is this girl's poll tax? It seems that the current Shenchu Kingdom does not have this strange tax.

"I said Yang Dagongzi, you don't know this, this girl's poll tax is a recent addition, that is, a woman who has reached the age of 16 in my Shen Chu Kingdom, who has not married and stayed at home, has to pay 100 yuan every month, and when she gets married, this tax will not have to be paid. Master Xu said brightly.

Yang Yulong and Yang Ruofeng looked at each other, and the villagers were also resentful when they heard it, when did this increase the tax, why have they never heard of it?

In this way, a woman who has reached the age of 16 must be married, regardless of whether the other party is a cat or a dog, otherwise staying at home is equivalent to bankrupting the family.

I have to pay 100 yuan in taxes every month, isn't it my life, for Song Yuniang and Yang Ruofeng's mother and daughter, they don't have 100 yuan a month.

Yang Yulong scolded: "Master Xu, who came up with this tax, isn't it too unconscionable, there is such a tax in the world." ”

Master Xu shook his head and said with relish: "This is not something we came up with, we don't have such talented people in this poor and remote place, this is the national law issued by my Divine Chu State three months ago, if you don't believe it, you can go and inquire, this is by no means a fictitious and deliberately fabricated." ”

"This is also our famous Shenwu Emperor, in order to enrich the population of my Shenchu country, this decree was issued, our Shenchu country is rich in land and resources, but the population is sparse, in order to quickly increase the number of people, we can only let girls marry early and have more children early. ”

Although Yang Yulong is the fourth prince of the Divine Chu Kingdom in this life, he doesn't pay much attention to taxes, and he naturally doesn't know about this kind of strange tax.

However, Yang Yulong can be sure that this is another sassy idea from a certain idle bullshit minister.

And the Emperor of the Divine Chu State has always liked to brainstorm and listen to the opinions of his ministers, and he may have seen that this idea was good, which could not only increase the country's population, but also increase taxes, and solve the problem of men not being able to marry wives, and reduce the number of singles, so he agreed with satisfaction.

After some analysis, it is not impossible for the Emperor of Shenchu to issue such a decree, but the 100 yuan is a lot of burden for an ordinary family, and it is almost a month's living expenses for a family.

A 16-year-old girl, just when she is learning cultural knowledge, just when her body is mature, but she wants to force them to marry and have children for others, and the conscience of the person who comes up with such a riotous idea must be eaten by dogs.

When Lao Tzu returns to the royal city one day, he must find out the minister who has made a fuss, and then dismantle him and feed the dog with his conscience.

"Since Master Xu said so, we are willing to pay the 100 yuan. Yang Yulong said helplessly.

"Brother, our family can't take out the 100 yuan anymore. Yang Ruofeng pulled Yang Yulong's arm and said in embarrassment.

Yang Yulong clenched his fists and said, "This 100 money, brother will find a way." ”
