Chapter 181 Observing Public Opinion (Second update! Ask for a subscription, ask for a monthly pass!)
Zhang Tieniu snatched the words, the yamen servant was so stupid.

"Are you a fisherman from Qingpu Village?"

Zhao Xun thought to himself that if he really wanted to sleep, someone would hand him a pillow.

He was about to find some local villagers to inquire about the situation of the monsters, but unexpectedly, someone came to him on his own initiative.

"You come with me."

Zhao Xun turned around and walked towards the Yamen.

Zhang Tieniu was stunned, and looked at the yamen servant.

The yamen servant hurriedly said: "If the imperial envoy tells you to follow, just follow."

Zhang Tieniu followed Zhao Xun into the yamen.

This is his first time entering the yamen, and he used to just take a look outside from a distance, not even daring to approach.

The yamen is really rich, this house and the bluestone road really make him drool with envy.

Zhang Tieniu really did not expect that he would have the opportunity to visit the Yamen in person in this life.

It's not a bad experience to have.

Zhang Tieniu found out that the imperial envoy was not very old, probably less than 20 years old.

It's really a boy born from a hero since ancient times.

Zhang Tieniu didn't dare to say anything, he followed behind Zhao Xun.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Zhao Xun stopped. Zhang Tieniu looked up and found several officials standing there.

Although Zhang Tieniu couldn't tell what officials these were, he could confirm that they were officials.

There is a world of difference between officials and officials, and Zhang Tieniu knows a trick, that is, officials with patches on their chests are officials, and officials without patches are officials.

It's a little strange to say that the status of officials is obviously higher, but why are officials patching things up, and officials don't?
In their fishermen's homes, only the poor can patch them up.

Hey, never mind that.

He came here to ask exactly when the sea will open, and why he cares about these things.

In front of so many nobles, Zhang Tieniu didn't dare to take the initiative to speak, and simply stood there waiting for the nobles to ask questions.

Zhao Xun nodded at Wan Cishi and said, "Wan Cishi, this is Zhang Tieniu, a fisherman I met outside the yamen."

"You came to Yamen to ask when you can open the sea to fish, right?"

Zhao Xun turned to Zhang Tieniu and asked in a deep voice.

"If you go back to the adults, our family will be in trouble. Other families in the fishing village are similar. You can't go fishing, everyone's life is really hard."

When Zhang Tieniu said this, Governor Wan's complexion changed drastically.

It's really a coincidence that a fisherman who appeared out of nowhere was hit by the imperial envoy.

The key is that Zhang Tieniu's life is hard, and he can't get rid of it.

Although it is likely to be the truth, what will the imperial envoy think when he hears it?
The imperial envoy should think that they, the Ningzhou parents and officials, didn't do anything, right?
But Wan Cishi was really wronged.

Ningzhou has a special geographical location. Most of the local people make a living by fishing, and very few people farm.

Suddenly fishing is no longer possible, and the impact on the common people will naturally be great.

But Governor Wan really had no other choice.

He knew that he would be scolded for promulgating the ban on sea at this time, so he could only bite the bullet and issue this order.

Anyway, someone has to take the responsibility.

If the common people wanted to poke his back, they would poke his back, and if they wanted to scold their mother, they would scold his mother.

They felt better after scolding them.

Wan Cishi did this to minimize losses.

Where there is life, there is hope.

But the problem is that if you continue to consume like this, I am afraid that your body will not be able to bear it anymore.

"Have you ever seen what a monster looks like?"

Zhao Xun asked in a deep voice.

"This does not"

Zhang Tieniu answered truthfully.

He scratched his head and said, "Several families in the village never came back after going to sea. It is said that they were eaten by monsters. I wondered if anyone who had seen monsters would die?"

Zhao Xun thought about it carefully, and what Zhang Tieniu said was also reasonable.

Anyone who has the opportunity to see the monster, there is a high probability that they will not be able to escape alive.

After all, they are a group of mortals with flesh and blood, how can they fight against monsters that are much more ferocious than wild beasts with only brute force?

You must know that even practitioners should be afraid of these guys.

"Take me to Qingpu Village."

Zhao Xun thought for a moment, and ordered without hesitation.

"My house is empty, and there is no need to entertain my lord when I go."

Zhang Tieniu looked bitter.

"Inspector Wan, order someone to bring some food."

Zhao Xun turned to Wanci Shidao.

At this time, it is a family that can save a family, and it is a family that can save a family.

Zhao Xun knew that he could not save everyone, but he had to do his best and be ashamed of himself.

"The subordinate obeys the order."

Wan Inspector quickly responded.

There is still some food in the yamen.

At this time, he would naturally obey the orders of the imperial envoy.

Yamen officials travel with great momentum.

Zhao Xun actually doesn't like such a big battle, but it's a rule, it's unavoidable.

Instead of spending too much time talking about this kind of thing, it is better to save more energy on dealing with monsters.

Right now, monsters have become the biggest hidden danger raging in the southeast.

If the monsters are not eliminated, countless fishermen like Zhang Tieniu will have no peace for a day.

Zhao Xun had also been to a fishing village in his previous life, but this Qingpu Village was very different from the fishing village in his impression.

The whole fishing village was dilapidated, and there was an air of decadence from the inside out.

Moreover, there was a rancid fishy smell in the air, mixed with the smell of excrement and urine, which made people sick.

Zhao Xun forced himself not to spit it out.

His previous life was pretty good, but as for Da Zhou, he was well-clothed and well-fed all day long, and his living conditions were too good, which directly led to too little contact with poor people.

Even the poor people in Chang'an City are not as miserable as the people in Qingpu Village in Ningzhou.

After all, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, Emperor Xianlong also wanted face, even if it was a face project, he would do it.

But locally the situation is different.

It's fine if the government doesn't search for people's fat and people's anointing, how can it be dedicated to helping the people.

"Is the imperial envoy all right?"

Governor Wan came up to him with great concern and asked.

"I'm fine, let's go in."

Zhao Xun told himself in his heart to keep calm.

The yamen servants opened the way with great momentum.

All the fishermen in Qingpu Village hid at home and did not dare to show their heads.

In their impression, it was the first time for the government to come here on their own initiative. What is the reason for such a big fight?

Isn't it for tax collection?
There are too many types of government taxes these days, and they don't know why there are so many Mingmu.

But things are different now.

Everyone can't go fishing and lose their income.How can you afford to pay exorbitant taxes when you can't even eat enough?

If the government wants to collect taxes, they must at least open the sea first, right?
Shut the doors and lock the windows, shut the doors and lock the windows.

Hide as long as you can, if you really can't hide, think of a way.

Hey, isn't that Zhang Tieniu...

How did he get ahead?Shouldn't it be for the government to work for the tiger?
