Space Escape: Raising Big Guys with Hundreds of Billions of Materials

Chapter 557 559. Taxation
With the emperor's permission, Gu Wenheng's next steps can be described as drastic.

To build roads, build water canals, open up wasteland... One after another government orders are issued non-stop, Lucheng is busy with the autumn harvest, and enters the next stage of busyness.

Thanks to those bandits, they really became a new force in his hands.

Wherever there are dangerous and tiring jobs, they have all been contracted by them.

"This manpower is still not enough," He Gaofei rubbed the goose bumps on his body. Since autumn, it has been getting colder every day. If it is frozen, the construction period will be postponed.”

He has seen the power of winter here, and he just wants to finish these things quickly and stay in the yamen to sleep well.

Even if you have to do business in the yamen at that time, it is better than running in the wilderness in the ice and snow.

Gu Wenheng also frowned, relying on manpower is indeed a delay in the construction period.

But there is no way, without machinery, everything can only be done slowly.

"How many prisoners are there in this cell?"

"If it's our government office, there are about forty more, and there should be some in the county government offices in various places."

Wu Yichen knew Gu Wenheng's plan as soon as he heard it, but it was still a drop in the bucket.

Gu Wenheng, "No matter how much, let them come out and put them on top first, but don't forget the shackles."

"But many of them are desperadoes, and I'm afraid they will disobey."

Gu Wenheng, "Then tell them clearly, as long as you work hard, you can get a dish of braised pork every day."

He knows better than anyone what food is eaten in this prison every day, and he just hangs his breath to prevent them from dying.

After suffering for so long, those people would be willing to sacrifice their lives for a piece of meat.

"Our government doesn't have much silver taels anymore..." He Gaofei clutched his heart, feeling the pain.

After the autumn harvest, some of the tax money in Lucheng will be collected, but it can't stand Master Gu's actions like this!

"Go back and post a notice that the villagers who raise pigs nearby will be expropriated. As long as they supply the pigs to the government, they will be given a discount for tax credit in the coming year."

"This is impossible, we can't touch the tax area..."

"Lord He forgot, this mansion has a sacred decree, and in the past two years, this mansion in Lucheng has the final say."

He Gaofei wanted to persuade him again, but Wu Yichen held him back.

When there were only the two of them left, He Gaofei couldn't help asking, "Why did you drag me around just now? This matter is not a trivial matter. If something really goes wrong in the future, none of us can escape.

You just let him make trouble like this, be careful that even we will be destroyed..."

"Master He, haven't you seen it yet? There is a reason for what Master Gu did.

Even though doing this way is equivalent to advance payment of next year's tax money in advance, but in real terms, there is no loss.

It's just a meal, so much hard work is for nothing, but this thing is done, and it's not for nothing.

And as long as these roads are repaired this year, why worry about the fishing products in the nearby fishing village not being sold in the coming year.

In addition to repairing the road, these vendors are naturally willing to run a few more times, and slowly revitalize Lucheng.

Maybe Master Gu really made a fuss this time, why would you want to block this bright prospect? "

He Gaofei also calmed down at the moment, "I, I'm just a little worried, if I can't collect taxes next year..."

"You forgot the imperial decree before. Now, as long as the rest of us follow things carefully, maybe this is our chance..."

Gu Wenheng returned to the mansion at night, and while chatting with Jin Qianqian, he talked about the confiscation of pork.

At this moment, Jin Qianqian remembered that there were still tens of thousands of catties of pork piled up in her space, which she obtained from several slaughterhouses one after another. If Gu Wenheng hadn't mentioned it today, she would have almost forgotten it.

"Hey, I have saved a lot of pork, but now I have no excuse to take it out."

Gu Wenheng, "It's fine to store it, but it's not time to use it yet.

It's just that once I post this list today, it may have some impact on the market here for a while.

Your restaurant may have to go further afield to find sources of goods. "

Jin Qianqian didn't care too much, "It just so happens that you have also repaired the roads in several villages during this period. I plan to focus on seafood in the next restaurant. The practice of developing more seafood will also indirectly help open up sales."

If her husband wants to do something good for the people of this side, she naturally has to follow suit.

She may not be able to do other major things, but she can still do a little bit of subtle influence.

Gu Wenheng put his arms around her shoulders, "Thank you, lady.

I also trouble you to work hard and think so much for me. "

Jin Qianqian gave him a blank stare, "No matter where you are, you must have a career, and what you are doing is doing good deeds, so I will naturally help you.

I have read many novels before, in fact, I also have small thoughts in my heart.

You said that if our merits and virtues are enough, is it possible to be together in the next life? "

Gu Wenheng also had firm eyes on his face, "That's for sure, whether it's the next life or the next life, I've made a reservation.

Besides, thanks to my wife, I don't think I need to worry about making a living in my life, so why not do something meaningful.

For our future and the future blessings of our children, I also have to be a master of Qingtian. "

"Yes, Lord Qingtian." Jin Qianqian pursed her lips and smiled, "Now the little lady has an unjust case, and I have to report it to you. I hope that Lord Qingtian will make the decision for the little lady."

"Then you have to tell me, who are you going to sue?"

Jin Qianqian, "Gu Bencan and Gu Benluo, they slept with the little woman at noon today.

When the little woman woke up, she found that the entire bedding was soaked in water.

I just asked them who did it, Gu Benluo looked at Gu Bencan, Gu Bencan shook his head and denied it.

Later, the two boys actually looked at me.

I'm sure I don't want to admit to things I haven't done.

Unexpectedly, the two boys were in a hurry, and they both cried and said that they didn't do it. The little woman had no choice but to take the matter down in the end.

Are you saying that I am wronged? "

Gu Wenheng, "Then you don't know whose pants are soaked through these two boys."

Jin Qianqian lowered her voice and whispered in his ear, "The clothes of the three of us are all wet, but looking at Gu Benluo's pants, they are more wet."

Gu Wenheng, "How can this kid act like this? A man should dare to do it if he dares to do it.

Please don't worry, little lady, after a while, the government will help you find the place, so that the boy will not dare to commit another crime in the future. "

Jin Qianqian, "Then you have to take it easy, it's a normal physiological phenomenon for a child to have this kind of situation.

He didn't dare to admit it, and he also had his self-esteem. It's fine to make insinuations, but he can't say it out loud. "
