Nongmen's charming girl has a medicine field

Chapter 83
Xie's family, Xie Zhao took care of both the sable and the red fox, and put them in Xie Daoyun's room without taking them out.

Xie Wu took the bucket, picked water into it, and cleaned the inside.

He brought salt again and marinated the meat first.

Although there will be some taste, but the daughter of the Orion family, can't bear this?
Well, Xie Daoyun said that he really couldn't bear it.

Although she was born with fetal wear, she was really uncomfortable with the raw meat in this room.

But it's just that she doesn't get used to it, she is not the kind of young lady who is rich in money, even in modern times, she is not a young lady who doesn't touch the spring water with her ten fingers.

Neither Xie Zhao nor Xie Wu took this into consideration, nor did they think of it.

They didn't have time to pay attention to Xie Daoyun's feelings, because the uncles and uncles of Xie's family came.

As a girl, Xie Daoyun naturally had no reason to see her uncle and uncle, and it wasn't that she hadn't seen her for decades.

In the main room, although Xie Zhao had already made preparations, he still turned pale when he saw the eldest brother bringing his two younger brothers.

He has a feeling of being betrayed by his brother.

When his family was having a bad time, why didn't his elder brother and two younger brothers help him a little?
He didn't know how to hunt all at once, and he didn't hunt much prey.

Why did I hear that a deer was hunted, and the eldest brother and two younger brothers came?
"The elder brother and the two younger brothers are rare visitors, please come in quickly."

Xie Zhao made a slight sarcasm, but still invited the three brothers into the house.

The four brothers of the Xie family, and one aunt, are already married. Except for this aunt, the other three brothers have ignored her for so many years.

It's rare to come to the door today.

Xie Chun seemed not to understand Xie Zhao's sarcasm, and entered the main room with his back turned expressionlessly, and found a seat by himself without waiting for a greeting.

Xie's family is not a wealthy family, so naturally there will be no chairs leaning on both sides, they are all chairs made by themselves, and the arrangement is not so neat.

The same was true for the other two younger brothers, who just found a place to sit.

Sister-in-law Xie and Sister-in-law Xie met quickly, and then withdrew.

Vaguely, I also felt that the atmosphere in the main room was a little weird.

The two daughters-in-law also knew about the fact that Xie's father and son went up the mountain and hunted a red deer.

Don't you know why the uncle and the two uncles came here?
Even if it wasn't clear, when the aunt and aunts came over, they knew everything.

When Mrs. Xie went to Xie Daoyun's room, she still vaguely heard the words from the main room.

"you say……"

Before he could speak, he smelled something, and when he looked up, he saw something hanging on the beam.

Mrs. Xie almost yelled out loud, not in shock, but in surprise.

This?
"no……"

"Shh, this is another gain."

The fur is also put away, awaiting tanning.

Aunt Xie then lowered her voice, and asked with a little excitement, "What did you hunt when you went up the mountain today?"

Didn't you say, a deer?
It can be seen that the thing hanging on the beam does not look like any large animal, nor does it look like rabbit meat.

Xie Jiawu and his son went up the mountain, and they rarely got large prey, but there were quite a lot of rabbits and pheasants.

Well, there does seem to be one rabbit, but the other two?
Xie Daoyun didn't intend to hide it either. If Mrs. Xie didn't see it, she didn't intend to take the initiative to say it.

Anyway, she originally planned to make a waistcoat or knee pads for her parents with buckskin.

But isn't it sold in the town now?

As for these two skins, she didn't want to do anything for Xie Zhao and Xie Wu.

It's not that she's greedy, but that this thing is relatively expensive, and the two elders wear it by themselves, so it's easy to show off.

At that time, the uncles and uncles and aunts of the Xie family will be thinking about it.

I still sold it, exchanged it for silver, and went to buy some fields.

For farmers, there is nothing more reassuring than having more fields at home.

As for too much land, can't grow it?

It does not exist. In ancient society, apart from farming, they only had to hunt.

If a family of three wants to have enough food, they must plant at least [-] mu of land, which of course refers to inferior land.

If it is a high-quality field, this number can be reduced.

But it won't reduce too much.

Farmers in ancient times had heavy taxes, and taxes were collected according to population and land.

The land tax is not light at all, [-]% is charged.

The [-]% mentioned here refers to [-]% of the annual field income, and the output will be determined according to the grade of the field.

This is why the grade of the field should be marked on the title deed of the field.

Some gentry, by changing the grade of the field, let their family pay less tax.

Ordinary people naturally have no choice, how much tax they should pay.

In addition to the [-]% tax, there is also a silk tax every year.

The so-called silk tax refers to corvee.

The imperial court stipulated that each male must serve a certain period of corvee every year. If he did not want to serve, he would donate silk to the imperial court, which was called silk tax.

This tax is not cheap either. Every year, you have to donate two feet of silk, or two feet and five feet of cloth.

This is what Xie Daoyun only found out in the past few days. She always thought that taxes were collected according to population.

For example, in her memory, in some dynasties, Dingkou collected as much shi as tax every year.

This tax collection method is at least better than what Xie Daoyun remembered.

This can be regarded as spreading the income into the mu, and it has achieved the green seedling method that Wang Anshi has never done in history.

In memory, in history, Wang Anshi planned reforms with Song Shenzong in order to change the weakness of the imperial court.

It's just that the reform is good, but there is no way to implement it below.

Those with vested interests are gentry, landlords, and dignitaries.

In the court's yamen, most of the people in power and the executors of the reforms are this group of people.

There are policies at the top, and countermeasures at the bottom. A good tax law like the Young Crops Law cannot be carried forward.

Thinking about it this way, the tax system of Dajing Dynasty is at least relatively advanced.

But there is also a problem, that is, to conceal the number of fields.

This is what the rich and powerful do the most.

Those government servants who collect taxes naturally dare not really calculate how many fields the rich and powerful families have.

So, there is no real policy without loopholes.

Policies are all implemented by people. As long as there are loopholes in people's hearts, no matter how strict the policy is, loopholes will eventually appear.

The two were sitting here with the door closed, chatting casually.

Xie Daoyun started to check her embroidery, not at all worried that her uncle would come over.

This is her daughter's boudoir, if it is the eldest aunt, it is possible, even if the uncle and two uncles covet her family's money again, they will not dare to break in.

At that time, even if it is to go to the patriarch, the uncle and the two uncles are unreasonable.

They want money, but they can't grab it.

Xie Zhao knows some martial arts and has many sons, so Uncle Xie and his two uncles didn't dare to do it.

"What's the matter? Why are you still arguing?"
