Chapter 524 False report (four more)
"Almost, it's cheaper." Shen Zhouheng picked up the bowl and took two sips of hot water, which warmed his body a lot, and then said, "I asked about this price privately, we are not buying it privately, it is in the name of the county government. bought."

"Shouldn't it be more expensive in the name of the county government?" He Bingkun said in surprise.

"Then I don't know, I'll explain the purpose, maybe people feel sorry for the difficult conditions here!" Shen Zhouheng looked at them as usual and said.

What else can this say?Shen Zhouheng picked up the wowotou with chopsticks, "Let's talk about the effect of the trial!"

The words fell and ate the wowotou of sorghum noodles.

With coal, the effect is different, because the heat is high, and after the iron is calcined, it is much easier to beat, not so hard.

The shovels of the pickaxe and the shovel are much sharper and more convenient to use.

The toughness is also better than that of firewood calcined. The tool is finally solved. Even if it is repaired, the coal will be calcined faster.

When someone on the canal went home, Shen Zhouheng asked him to bring a message to Lu Ming.

"My God, finally there is news." Chen shi said with a long sigh, and put his heart in his stomach.

"Is there no more specific news?" Qi Yaoyao asked through the curtain.

"No, I'm afraid I'll have to wait for the young master to come back." Lu Ming said immediately after hearing the words.

"Didn't Luming go to the canal a year ago? Ask the young master to find out." Pomegranate said succinctly.

"It's been a month or so." Qi Yaoyao said after counting the days.

When Luming came to report the work a year ago, Shen Zhouheng wrote down the ins and outs of the matter, stuffed it in an envelope and handed it to Luming.

When Qi Yaoyao received the letter, the whole county already had a very strong New Year flavor.

Qi Yaoyao couldn't wait to open the letter and read it at a glance.

Who is this Mr. Ray?Qi Yaoyao thought for a long time before she remembered.

Ambition is something that applies to everyone, and there are many eunuchs in this palace who want to climb up.

Grandma is a master of Gongdou. With her guidance, both men and women will step on a lot less pits.

No matter how things are resolved satisfactorily, I will ask in detail when the county magistrate comes back.

&*&
Year after year, when the spring flowers are blooming, Shen Zhou came back in a turbulent manner.

After Shen Zhouheng read the imperial palace newspaper, there was a new trend in the policy.

With a face full of spring breeze, he stepped on the sunset and went home, "I'm back."

"So happy! What's the good thing?" Qi Yaoyao asked with a smile while looking at the spring breeze.

"The court is going to re-measure the land. Now the land under the name of the gentleman should be cleaned up. The tax that should be paid in the future will not be able to escape." Shen Zhouheng said happily.

Qi Yaoyao looked at him calmly with a smile on her lips and said, "It is often harder to touch the interests than to touch the soul!" He looked at him with cold eyes and said, "In fact, the Lord Shoufu, whom you highly respect, is more difficult to touch! : All his efforts were unable to break through the shackles of bureaucracy."

"Yaoyao feels that this matter cannot be carried out." Shen Zhouheng heard the words and put away the smile on his face, "Master Shoufu first measured his own land first. He is very determined!"

Qi Yaoyao's dark eyes looked at him and said, "If you really want to make up your mind, then he doesn't want to have an acre of land in his name, and he doesn't want to have a tenant farmer, otherwise everything will be empty with me."

"Then what does he rely on to support his family?" Shen Zhouheng frowned lightly and looked at him.

"Lu Mi! Aren't you relying on Lumi!" Qi Yaoyao looked at him with a raised eyebrow and said.

"It's not possible." Shen Zhouheng hesitated for a moment, shook his head and said, his dark eyes looked at her and said, "This has to be shaken at all. Impossible, farming and reading heirlooms are highly respected by the world and Shilin."

"So it's just that the wool in disguised form comes out of the sheep, and scraping the ground is more ruthless." Qi Yaoyao looked at him with bottomless eyes and said.

"Isn't the land that was checked out bad? The merger of the land has eased a lot." Shen Zhou looked at her with light brown eyes and said.

"My county magistrate! You said that it has been relieved and relieved, but it has not solved the fundamental contradiction from the root." Qi Yaoyao looked at him with open arms and said, "The original intention of this reform has always been good, but you I can't stop these crooked monks from these bureaucratic groups and read the scriptures in a wrong way, and in the end, it is the common people who are trapped, and the actual tax paid is more than before the land inventory."

"It's impossible! This measurement of land, Ding is Ding, Mao is Mao, and it can be faked..." Shen Zhouheng looked at her stiffly and swallowed.

"Why didn't you say anything?" Qi Yaoyao asked with a half-smile looking at him.

"Uh..." Shen Zhouheng closed his eyes and said with a drooping head, "Falsification is their forte. I know very well how to play tricks in this fight."

Qi Yaoyao raised her eyebrows at him and said, "Let's put it this way! After the land was cleared, the taxation of the national treasury must have increased. Of course, this is a great political achievement of a loyal minister, which is positive and can be written in the history books. Yes." Looking at him with a serious face, he said solemnly, "He can also be a criminal evidence of a traitor. Because, in a positive sense, this is the result of the official's dedication to the public; the problem is, in a negative sense, This is the result of officials’ reckless levies!” He raised his index finger and said, “Looking at history, in the middle of any dynasty, there will be land acquisitions, and then the lack of taxes will lead to empty treasuries and rapid decline of the dynasty. The only solution at this time is to Reforms, but reforms are often accompanied by great risks.”

Shen Zhouheng looked at her with deep eyes and said, "During the Tang Dezong period, land mergers were too serious, the imperial court could not collect taxes, resulting in an empty treasury, and Tang Dynasty had no money, so the emperor levied interlocking tax on all private properties in Chang'an City. The levy is calculated according to the grade and the number of times. The collection of taxes on the rich with beatings and fines has really enriched the treasury of Datang. However, Tang Dezong only implemented such a wealthy tax policy for half a year, because it was just before the levy. In the year of the tax, [-] soldiers mutinied in Chang'an to oust Tang Dezong, and their propaganda slogan was: "No tax!"

"The most famous is Wang Anshi's reform. It was so vigorous, and it was a complete defeat in the end." Qi Yaoyao looked at him with her bottomless eyes and said, "Do you know what I'm afraid of?" , "I'm afraid that they will falsely report the land in order to invite credit and receive rewards. The upper and the lower are effective, the upper is good, and the lower will be worse!"

The old tricks of the officials and gentlemen have been expanded, and they have remained unchanged from ancient times to the present.

The public resentment boiled over at the end!
"False report?" Shen Zhouheng swallowed and looked at her intently.
