Water Margin farming to become powerful

Huang Tang was chatting with the soldier, when he heard footsteps outside, he looked up curiously, and saw several guards walking over with one person.

Taking a closer look at the person who came, Huang Tang quickly stood up and asked, "Huang Zhong, why are you here?"

Huang Zhong is a servant of Huang Tang's family, and his name was given by the master Huang Cheng. The master has no culture and the story of the Three Kingdoms is not popular in this era, so he didn't know that he named his servant the Five Tigers.

Huang Zhong was pressed all the way by the guards, and he was still a little timid. When he saw the young master, his mouth moved, and then he looked at the guards next to him. Huang Tang immediately knew that there must be something wrong with him, so he looked at the surroundings with embarrassment. The guard asked: "This is my servant, can I talk to him inside?"

The guards nodded their heads and thanked Huang Tang, then dragged Huang Zhong into the house.

This movement also caused some people in other rooms to look around, and when they saw that it was Huang Tang, they smiled at him and didn't pay much attention.

Walking all the way, Huang Zhong asked in a low voice: "Master, the guards didn't make things difficult for you, did they? The master is worried."

"It's okay, this group of people is not a group of bandits as we imagined before, but..." Huang Tang felt that it was not easy to describe in the middle of the sentence, and shook his head. The matter is too complicated, so there is no need to say more to this lowly servant. So he changed the subject and asked:

"What's the rush to come to the Sizhou Supervisory Committee?"

"The master asked me to see if the young master is safe here, and to send a message, telling the young master that if you are safe, stay here first and don't rush back."

"Why is this?"

He dragged Huang Zhong into the house and saw that Huang Zhong was thirsty, so Huang Tang ordered someone to pour water.

Huang Zhong took a sip of water from the water glass handed by the servant, then wiped his mouth and said, "Young Master, after you left home, the tax collectors from the county came and said they wanted to see the harvest of our fields this year. , to set taxes."

Huang Tang frowned when he heard the words. The taxes in Dutou Town have been getting heavier and heavier in the past few years, and big households like them have no official connections. Find a rich man like them.

In the early years, it was possible to transfer tax revenues to the farmers to rob them of their fields, but now as the land annexation has become more serious, in Huang Tang's life, almost all the land of the whole village has fallen into the hands of his family. To rob the remaining fields, we must go to the private fields in the mountains.That's a desperate fight with the dealer, even if the Huang family is a powerful party, they dare not do it.

So they just swallowed their teeth. Sometimes when the government sent a messenger, the dealers below ran away and had to pay for it themselves.

In the past few years, the tax revenue of the imperial court has increased, and the distribution of errands and salaries has forced their family's income to drop sharply.

Huang Tang knew that the government used to visit the fields before the autumn harvest every year to watch the lectures and collect taxes, but now it is time for the harvest to come and see it again. Obviously, they want to be more sure of the Huang family's harvest this year, so as to increase the income for this year. The Huang family sent the tax quota up.

Although their family is a big landlord, in today's world, it is just the surface of donkey dung, otherwise Huang Cheng, the older generation, would not try to send Huang Tang to study.

Once the tax is paid this time, it may be that this year my family will have another bloodbath.

"What name is this recycling?"

Hearing this, Huang Zhong carefully glanced outside and saw that there were no guards patrolling around, so he whispered: "The county said that the guards came around Dutou to disturb the township, and the county will send troops after collecting taxes. Come and pay."

Hearing this, Huang Tang couldn't help sneering. He walked around the Protectorate's camp and the supervisory committee this morning, and after reading the Protectorate's propaganda brochure in the afternoon, he already had a certain feeling for the Protectorate in his heart. Identity.

Even if you don't agree that he has eyes, you can see how strong the protection army is. Just because those few local soldiers in the county still want to come to wipe out the protection army, isn't it just a dream?
Just by looking at the rifled guns of the guards and their neat military appearance, you can know their strengths and weaknesses. It is estimated that if they really have to go to the battlefield for a few rounds of shooting, the soldiers will be scattered like birds and beasts.

Huang Tang sneered and heard Huang Zhong say:
"Master was forced to do nothing, so I can only say that you are being kidnapped by the guards, young master. The bandit army is blackmailing the family. Now the Huang family is about to pay a large sum of money. There is really no money left to take."

"The master wants to use this method to prevaricate the people in the yamen, because he is afraid that the official will go back before he leaves, young master, and miss what the master said, so he specially asked me to take a look."

Huang Zhong said to Huang Tang in a low voice: "Master said that although it is hard to live in the territory of the Protectorate Army, it is better than going back to our hometown, which will cost us a lot of money."

Hearing this, Huang Tang's face changed color, and after a while he couldn't help laughing wryly, "It's so ironic, so ironic!"

"I was kidnapped by the guards? In the camp of the guards, people treat each other with courtesy, and the court said they wanted to spend money to collect the guards, but they did come to blackmail them. Which one is the court? Which one is it?" Is it a traitor?"

When he was about to take charge of the family business and encountered such a thing, he couldn't help recalling all the things he had seen and heard when he was studying in the past, and felt more disgusted and sad, and then he couldn't help laughing, as if he heard something very funny.

The few guards outside looked at each other without knowing it, so they wondered if they should go back and report to the leader?
The arrival of people from Huang Tang's house was just an episode. In the evening, several supervisors of the supervisory committee came to greet the members of the observation team after they had finished dealing with the problem.

The Sizhou Supervisory Committee held a large banquet, and several supervisors of the Supervisory Committee also deliberately came back to attend.

After observation, everyone found that the supervisors of Sizhou Supervisory Committee were not as vicious as they were in the legend, and had no gangster spirit at all. On the contrary, as Fang Liang said in the morning, they looked more like some low-level officials.

Even many of them are high-achieving students from the Supervisory Council University, and have experienced at the grassroots level. Not only are they elegant, but they also seem to be like officials. The children of the local rich man's family felt that they did not dare to underestimate it.

Gongchoujiao ate a banquet, and everyone in the observation group was sent back in the evening, while the supervisors of the supervisory committee sat together and took advantage of this rare opportunity to discuss work.

The Supervisory Committee’s attitude towards Sizhou has already been decided long ago. The main job of the Supervisory Committee and the Protection Party in Shandong is to attack landlords and powerful and protect the interests of farmers and factory owners. However, this cannot be done in Sizhou. According to the standard, there is not a single factory owner in Sizhou, and the situation has just begun. In order to develop the Supervisory Committee, it is necessary to cooperate with the landlord.

They intend to let some rich people get benefits first and become the basic board of Sizhou Supervisory Committee.
