Datang first village

kick fight!

I don't know when it started, but it seems to be more like the rules of collecting grain taxes in the past, not the laws of the Tang Dynasty, nor the rules of the county government.

But it's really the rules of harvesting grain, so the village chief didn't respond at all.

The yamen servant knelt down to the village chief, because the county magistrate Du had previously explained that there was no fight to collect the grain tax today, because it was a tax collected from King Qin's farm.

At this moment, Magistrate Du's face turned pale, his hands trembled a little, and he looked at Li Yuanxing timidly.County Magistrate Du was really afraid that Li Yuanxing would get angry, so he carefully looked at Li Yuanxing's expression.

Li Yuanxing was very calm: "I've heard of kick fighting, but I saw it with my own eyes today." Noticing the tense expression on Du County Magistrate's face, Li Yuanxing patted him on the shoulder, which almost made Du County Magistrate even bowl Throw it all away, but I heard Li Yuanxing say: "This king is not angry, don't be nervous!"

Can you not be nervous?County magistrate Du's soul flew away, it really felt like a slap came over just now.

All the laughter in the open courtyard stopped, and the children were hugged by adults, and some even covered their mouths.

Li Yuanxing walked up to the yamen servant: "Have you ever calculated the cost of collecting grain tax, your shipping fee, storage fee, and food loss and so on!"

"Back, back, back!" The yamen servant said three times in a row, but he didn't finish the next sentence.

On the contrary, County Magistrate Du has come to his senses, and it seems that His Highness King Qin really doesn't seem to be angry, so he came over and replied: "Your Highness, what you said is also different, Chang'an County is near, so the consumption is less. If a distant county sends it to the government, the maximum may reach [-]%."

"Is half of Chang'an County enough?" Li Yuanxing asked.

"Enough, three points is enough. Because the whole Chang'an County belongs to His Highness, and the grain and tax collection will be concentrated in several places, so the transportation consumption is very little." County Magistrate Du replied truthfully.Originally, he was calculating, not to kick and fight, and the poor part of the county government tried to make up for it.

Li Yuanxing smiled, turned his head and said to Lizheng: "It seems that everyone is nervous, we should invite an opera troupe to come and sing." Then he said to County Magistrate Du: "That's it, add half. The watch seal, this king will seal it. It is better to put this part of the expenditure in the open."

"Yes, His Highness is right!"

"This king has heard a story before. There was a kicker who kicked the whole bucket over. The yamen servant was actually unintentional, but the result was very embarrassing. The taxpayer couldn't get the food any more. But the rules can't be broken, so there was a fight, and people died."

Li Yuanxing talked about this point, if County Magistrate Du didn't understand this county magistrate, he would be in vain.

"King Qin is kind, the officials know that His Highness is painstaking, so I will write a letter when I get back tonight!"

"Just write it here, and Qin Wangzhuang will use the seal later. In the future, Chang'an County will add half of it, and don't fight. It's not easy for the government servants, and it's not easy for the peasants. Understand each other, and get along better in the future!"

Li Yuanxing's few words made the yamen servant burst into tears, but kept kowtowing, unable to utter a word.

Li Yuanxing gave Li Zheng a wink, and Li Zheng shouted loudly: "All villages, pay the grain tax and distribute the grain!"

In King Qin’s farm, only the first [-] or so villages were responsible for planting corn. The families of craftsmen who came later came in because they entered the farm too late. When they entered the farm, the corn had already started to bear cobs.Second, Lizheng old man was afraid that bad people would sneak in here, so he checked every household, so he didn't give them any good land.

Open up wasteland, grow some vegetables, and do some chores.

There are only 32 villages that really need to pay grain tax, and one village does not pay tax. This is Qinwangzhuang's own farming and vegetable land, so it is legal and reasonable not to pay tax.And the second village is a family of meritorious service. Newly moved here will be exempted from tax for at least three years.The remaining 32 villages are also calculated on a village-by-village basis, with different reductions and exemptions.

"It's from Lao Bai's house in Erdaomen, Sancun!" Li Zheng rang the bell, the old accountant read a sentence, and the village head of Sancun shouted, and seven or eight strong men rushed over with a whimper, the elders were only about 40 years old. , the younger ones were fifteen or sixteen years old, and they all had strong muscles.

However, what appeared most was a one-armed boy with a wound still bleeding.

Li Yuanxing turned his head and asked Bai Erwa: "That's your younger brother Sanwa. Didn't this king tell you to go to the wounded barracks to report? Is there a king who is disabled? Why did you go home!"

"I dare not be disobedient, I'm going home to see my parents." Bai Erwa hurriedly explained.

The head of the three villages over there laughed: "Good guy, your family is happy this year. Two hundred catties of rice, three hundred catties of noodles, one thousand and six hundred catties of beans, thirteen strings of money, and four horses of silk." After reading, The third village chief yelled loudly: "I am optimistic about those who are not married, there are still four unmarried in the Bai family!"

Wow!The courtyard was full of laughter.

Those rich people in Chang'an City are really insignificant to the gentry.But these two thousand catties of grain and thirteen pennies of money, to ordinary farmers, really felt like a rich family suddenly appeared among the poor.Whose family once had more than three pennies of savings, and whose family had a thousand catties of grain in the warehouse.

There are children in the Bai family who are not married, so let the news out about this family situation, and ensure that the matchmaker tramples and breaks the door!

Pressing her fingerprints and carrying the grain bag, Bai Sanwa bowed to Li Yuanxing from a distance, Li Yuanxing waved it, and Bai Sanwa cheerfully ran away with her family with the four pieces of silk under one arm.

Immediately afterwards, it was the next one.

There are more than 1 households, when will this be distributed?

But judging from the expressions on the faces of the farmers, they all seem to like this kind of scene of family division very much. Even if it is divided for a few days and nights, it is also a pleasure, just watching this is fun.

It's rare to have fun, and there is no entertainment in the Tang Dynasty.

During the few days of food distribution, if everyone can really be happy for a few days, it would be an excellent thing.

The farmers in Qinwangzhuang were all happy, and Li Yuanxing was very happy about this joy.I remember that Li Yuanxing was heartbroken when he saw these farmers for the first time when he first arrived in Datang.The smiles on their faces were so forced, but at this time, they were smiles from the heart.

Next year will be even better!

Li Yuanxing left quietly, unwilling to affect the joy because of his departure.

When we returned to Zhuangzi, the horses that delivered the letter to Chang'an City also returned. It was only forty miles away. King Qin's first-class knights could fight back and forth one and a half hours an hour. Li Yuanxing was delayed by two hours at the farm. People naturally even brought back the reply.

There is only one sentence in Qin Qiong's letter, Lao Lang and Li Chang are trustworthy.

Li Jing's letter talked a lot, and wrote more than 100 words.In Datang, a letter of more than 100 characters needs five sheets of paper. You must know that people in Datang are economical.It saves paper and ink, so the meaning expressed in more than 1000 characters is definitely more than the modern [-] characters.

Li Yuanxing was ashamed, because he still couldn't understand more than half of the sentences.

Li Yuanxing didn't know what he was quoting from the scriptures.

But Li Yuanxing could guess. Based on the tone of the letter and the general meaning, Li Yuanxing guessed what Li Jing meant.This is a change for Li Yuanxing. Since he is loyal to the Qin Palace and has handed over his family and life to the Qin Palace, he should have the corresponding identity and status.

Then, Li Yuanxing felt that there was another layer of meaning.

That is, you, Goro, come first, and after you have overcome the censor's iron mouth, I, Li Jing, will also try to raise the status of my retainers.

"Second baby, go and ask those who can write in our Qin Palace to prepare invitations. Qin Wangzhuang has an important ceremony the day after tomorrow. This king recruits retainers, so let them come to watch the ceremony. Specifically who to invite, let those who can use their brains Think about it. And then how to write the invitation, don't ask me!"

Bai Erwa nodded and went in person.

Qin Wangzhuang also has a complete official position system, the highest has a long history, and then there are more than [-] officials of various ranks. Up to now, Li Yuanxing has not distinguished what these officials are in charge of.

In this regard, Li Yuanxing thought he was not as good as Bai Erwa.

Every time she asks to arrange something, Bai Erwa will definitely find the right person who is in charge of such matters.

Li Yuanxing returned to his study and still had scripts to write. Li Yuanxing actually thought the original script was not bad.But as the cabinet master said, do you want to engrave the word "Da Tang" on your face?

What is missing is the customs of the Tang Dynasty.

The farm is full of local customs, and so is the old wolf. In a few days, he will complete the retainer's ceremony and hold a wedding ceremony for the old wolf.

At the same time, Zhao Yande was going through the training that life would be worse than death. Li Chang only said one sentence: "If you can't even kill people, what qualifications do you have to be a spy. Dare to say that your heart is dark enough, this can only be said to be shameless Thick, dare to tell any lies." Li Chang used to be the spy of Tiance's inner security, so he naturally had his professional surname.

Wu Zhao absolutely believed in Li Chang's professional surname.

Anyway, it wasn't her who was being punished, watching Zhao Yande outside the temporary cell, being practiced by more than a dozen sergeants in turn.There was only one thing in the training, which was to be able to hold the knife. More than a dozen sergeants used short sticks.

If you react slowly, you will be beaten, and if you pretend to be pitiful and complain, you will be beaten extremely badly.

However, Zhao Yande is pitiful, and there is another one who is even more pitiful.The little Taoist was trembling with fright, he really didn't know what the fat man was, but there were only two prisoners here.

That fat man's life would be worse than death, so if it were him, he might not be able to live or die.

The little Taoist's small eyes were constantly observing, he restrained the strong sense of fear in his heart, and tried to calm himself down.He soon discovered that the one sitting in the weird chair had power here.

But that three-year-old girl seemed to have a bigger background.Because when the person on the chair gave the order, he unconsciously glanced at the three-year-old girl.

"So-and-so is loyal, smart, and knows how to do things." The little Taoist screamed ghostly, trying to attract Wu Zhao's attention. (To be continued.)
