Wang Ye's foodie farm concubine

Chapter 1618 The head of Lianhua Village

Yuyao thanked the shopkeeper and went to her room.

Several people gathered in Yuyao's room to discuss what they should do next.

"Tomorrow we will check on these county magistrates and collect some intelligence. Once the situation is clear, we will go meet the prefect again!"

Yuyao took out the map of Fucheng Mansion and said, "For these counties, Qinglian is in charge, Tingshang is in charge here, Master is in charge, I will take care of the rest."

"it is good."

So they checked out of the room early the next morning and went their separate ways.

The area where Yuyao went included Lotus.

Walking all the way towards Lianhua Village, I didn't encounter anyone who said they wanted to collect tolls, but I did encounter them when I entered the village.

"Doesn't this girl look like she's from this village? I wonder if she's from that village?"

Yuyao looked at the person who stopped her, "Why do you need to pay toll here?"

The man nodded, "Yes, no matter whether you are from this village or other villages, as long as you pass through here, you have to pay toll."

Yuyao heard it funny. She heard this thing only once and found it funny.

The entire Fucheng Mansion has simply become a bandit den!

Tolls are collected wherever you go.

"Do I have to pay it once or do I have to pay it every time?"

The man held up his chest and said, "Of course we have to do it once and for all."

Yuyao nodded, "I understand, this is the passing money this time."

The man weighed the money in his hand and said, "Okay, you can go over."

This situation was not only encountered by Yuyao, but also by several other people who acted separately.

Tingshang felt ridiculous at first, but in order to get useful information, she had to ask for the so-called passing money.

When Yuyao entered Lianhua Village, she did not go directly to her village. Instead, she went to the village chief of Lianhua Village first.She remembered that the head of Lianhua Village seemed to be a nice person, but her brothers had tampered with the accounts, and she could certainly tell.

"Are you the ninth lady from the Yu family?"

The village chief of Lianhua Village looked at Yuyao with a surprised expression.

In the past, all the young masters from the Yu family came, but this time it was the legendary Miss Ninth from the Yu family.

Yuyao smiled and nodded, "Yes, I am Yuyao, and this is my seal."

Several members of the Yu family have the same seal, which was carved by Yuyao from the same piece of jade.

The village chief confirmed that the seal indeed belonged to Miss Jiu of the Yu family.

"Miss Ninth, there is something I want to tell you first to avoid misunderstandings later."

"Village chief please tell me."

"The grain collected by the Yamen this year is much more than in previous years, so I can give you the grain this year."

The village chief was a little embarrassed to say that the Yu family rented the land to them for farming, and the grain they paid was agreed before, but now they asked the Yu family to collect less grain, which he couldn't say.

But considering there are so many children in the village, they cannot live without food!

Yuyao had already guessed what was going on. It seemed that this was another order from the prefect.

I don’t know how much power this prefect has. He is taxing more food and collecting so-called passing money. Who gave him the courage to do this?

How dare you put your hands into people's pockets!

Isn't this an obvious robbery? !

"Don't worry, village chief, the Yu family will not let the village have no food to eat."

The village chief nodded immediately, "Thank you, Miss Ninth! Thank you, Miss Ninth!"

The village chief took Yuyao to the Yu family's village, "It's just ahead."
