Smuggling Daming

Chapter 278 Takeover of the Tax Office

Seeing their boss being beaten, the people in the tax office were stunned for a moment, thinking that these Jinyiwei were really courageous, and then they realized that they didn't know who yelled. The people inside immediately rushed forward, ready to avenge their boss.

Although Tang Bohu, who was surrounded by Jin Yiwei, tried his best to stop the fight between the two sides, it was a pity that neither Jin Yiwei nor the people in the tax office were willing to listen to him, so in the end his words not only did not have any effect, but also attracted several people. Fortunately, Ma Liang was on the sidelines to protect Tang Bohu from the beating by the staff of the tax office.

Tang Bohu only brought more than 20 Jinyiwei this time, plus the original small officials of the Shipbuilding Department, there were only about thirty people, but there were five or sixty people at the tax office. It will definitely suffer.However, Ma Liang and those Jinyi guards are not ordinary people. They are all good fighters. It is no exaggeration to say that it is no problem for one of them to fight two or three times. They were almost crushed and beaten by Ma Liang and the others, and soon many people fell to the ground moaning, either their heads were broken or their arms were broken, all of them were extremely miserable.

Guessing that there was a stick of incense, the people at the tax office were completely defeated, and everyone either fell to the ground or ran away. On the other hand, the people at Ma Liang's side were neatly staffed, although many people were also injured, and even Some were not seriously injured, but at least they could stand up with the support of others.

"Boom!" I saw Ma Liang personally throwing a person in front of Tang Bohu. This person was Cheng Shenshi.Originally, when he saw that the situation was not good, he was about to escape, but he did not expect that Ma Liang had already seen that he was the leader here, so before Cheng Canshi even moved, he was caught by Ma Liang and punched him a few times, and then raised his hand. Then he threw it in front of Tang Bohu.

"You... you... oh~" Tang Bohu looked at the messy scene in front of him, and was speechless for a long time. He has always been a scholar, and he pays attention to the gentleman's words and not his hands.But I didn't expect that the first thing I did after I took office was to be forcibly done by my subordinates.

"You... who are you? Are you not afraid of being blamed by the governor for beating people from our tax office?" Ma Liang punched Cheng Shenshi in the stomach, and he was throbbing in pain. Take it easy.asked feebly.

"Bah! Don't keep talking about your governor, as if everyone is afraid of him. Let me tell you, we are under the command of Master Zhou, the admiral of the world. If you have the guts, let the governor behind you come over." Ask about the crime of the military master!" Before Tang Bohu could open his mouth, a general banner of Jinyiwei behind Ma Liang shouted.How arrogant and arrogant that kind of demeanor is.

When Counselor Cheng heard that these Jinyiwei turned out to be the subordinates of Zhou Zhong, the admiral of the four seas who had taken over Dinghaiwei before, he was also surprised.Although he is just a low-level official, he has also heard that Zhou Zhong is very powerful. As soon as he arrived in Dinghaiwei, he withdrew a commander. Not to mention him, even the governor may have this kind of courage and power. Can't afford it.So just the name Zhou Zhong had chilled the anger in Cheng Canshi's heart, and at the same time he began to worry about his future.

"Cheng Counsellor. Next is Tang Yin, the vice-promoter of the Municipal Shipbuilding Department. This time, he was ordered by the admiral to take over the tax office. It's just that your people were too arrogant before and didn't even let us in. I hope Counselor Cheng will not blame you for the conflict!" At this moment, Tang Bohu finally had the opportunity to tell his reason for coming, and introduced his identity by the way.And it is worth mentioning that in order to complete this task, he also made a lot of preparations before coming, and he is no stranger to this Cheng Counselor.

"Secretary of Shibo? Vice-president? Aren't you a member of Admiral Zhou? How did you become a member of Shibo?" Cheng Shenshi had already figured out the purpose of the other party's people, but when he heard Tang Yin's self-introduction At that time, he couldn't figure it out, why did the Shibo Division, who was only empty-handed, get together with Zhou Zhong?

I saw Tang Bohu came over with a smile at this moment, helped Cheng Counselor up himself and said: "Cheng Counselor does not know, this time the admiral has ordered our Shibosi to be under the admiral's office, and in the future The tax of Ningbo Port is still collected by our Shipbuilding Department, and we are here to hand over the tax today, and please cooperate with Counselor Cheng!"

"Handover? No way! The tax office has always been managed by our governor's yamen. Before receiving the order from the governor, Cheng will never hand over the tax office!" Although Counselor Cheng was afraid of Zhou Zhong's power, he The counselor, instead of the governor's office, manages the entire tax office, so unless the governor's office orders him to hand it over, it will be useless for anyone to force him.

"Deputy Tang suggested, don't talk so much nonsense with him. He will not take the initiative to hand over the tax office to us. The only way is for us to occupy it directly. In the future, when the governor's office comes, we will open it. Once, until they dare not come!" Ma Liang is not only a martial artist, he is also familiar with official affairs, and he has long guessed that taking down the tax office must use strong methods, so he just indulged his subordinates just now. Hit people.

If it were Li Lian, the other vice-promoter, I'm afraid he would agree with Ma Liang's words very much, and he would not talk so much nonsense with Counselor Cheng, but he would have been thrown out long ago.It's a pity that Tang Bohu is a first-time elder brother in the officialdom, and he doesn't understand the reason at all, so he didn't listen to Ma Liang's words at all, and still persuaded Cheng Cangshi: "Cheng Cangshi, we are under the order of the admiral. , and the admiral has obeyed His Majesty's imperial decree, if you don't hand over the tax office, then you will resist the decree, and I'm afraid even the governor will..."

Tang Bohu hadn't finished speaking, but he saw Cheng Shenshi's helpless face and said: "Master Tang, don't talk nonsense about pretending to be arrogant, Cheng is not a three-year-old kid in the officialdom, and he won't forget himself just because of your words." identity of!"

In fact, Cheng Shenshi also noticed at this time that the deputy Tang in front of him was probably new to the officialdom, and he didn't even understand such a simple truth. Otherwise, even if the Governor does not blame him in the future, I am afraid that he will not be able to get along in the officialdom. After all, no one wants to deal with a person who is struggling.

Although Tang Bohu is over 30 years old, he used to read books in addition to painting. Although he was not ignorant of human affairs, his knowledge was limited, and he didn't put himself in Cheng's shoes. After repeated rejections, I didn't understand the key point, but I still persevered in trying to persuade again.

But at this time Ma Liang was getting impatient. If he hadn't known that Tang Bohu was someone the admiral valued, he might have kicked him aside and dealt with it himself.Seeing that Ma Liang didn't wait for Tang Bohu to speak anymore, he went over and grabbed Cheng Counselor by the collar, strode to the door of the tax office and threw it out. Those who groaned were also thrown out the door.

Seeing how rude Ma Liang and the others were, Tang Bohu originally wanted to stop him, but on second thought, these Jinyi guards have always been used to it, and although they are now transferred to the Shibo Department, they don't take themselves seriously, so What he said was in vain, and judging from the situation just now, I am afraid that Counselor Cheng will really not take the initiative to hand over the tax office. Maybe it is the only way to force it.

After Ma Liang and the others threw out all the original staff from the tax office, Tang Bohu immediately led his people to take over the two warehouses, and at the same time sent all the small officials from the Shibo Department to the port to take over from the original tax office to collect taxes. Although the lack of manpower may affect the operation of the tax office, this is the only way to do it for the time being.As for the tax collection specifications, it is the same as before. After all, they have just taken over the tax office, so it is not appropriate to make major changes for the time being.

Compared with Tang Bohu and his side, Li Lian led another team to take over the tax office on the south bank of the Yongjiang River more smoothly, and Li Lian's style of work was completely different from Tang Bohu's. Jin Yiwei began to beat people, but he was very particular about beating people, he only beat the counselors and a few managers of the tax office, and he didn't touch the other small officials who were working, but directly beat them up after beating people. All the small officials took over and told them that the tax office is now under the jurisdiction of the admiral, and if they want to make a living, they should work honestly.

Obviously, Li Lian's handling of the tax office is more mature and satisfactory. After all, he has almost completely taken over the tax office, and only rushed to the counselor and a few stewards. of complete takeover.

In contrast, Tang Bohu's handling method seemed too jerky. The wrong estimate in advance made him not tough enough at the beginning, and he failed to impress the people in the tax office with momentum, which also directly led to the subsequent fight. , As a result, people from the tax office escaped and injured. In the end, he could only send out his limited manpower to make the tax office operate with difficulty. If he wants to fully restore the previous situation, he may have to wait until the Secretary of the Municipal Bureau of Taxation sends out the staff. You have to be full.

After Yang Tong received the news that two assistants had taken over the tax office, he immediately went to the port to sit in charge. Li Lian didn't have to worry about him at all, so he could only help Tang Bohu wipe his ass in the end. Fortunately, he knew that the admiral valued Tang Bohu very much. , so he didn't dare to lose his temper, instead he gave Tang Bohu some pointers patiently, which made Tang Bohu very grateful to Yang Tong while feeling ashamed.

The news that the tax office was taken over by Zhou Zhong soon spread to the governor's yamen. As a result, there was an uproar in the official circles of Zhejiang. While shocked, Xie Di, the governor of Zhejiang, was also a little happy in his heart, and immediately summoned several senior officials in Zhejiang. Let's get up and discuss together how to deal with this matter? (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets.
