Farmhouse full garden sweet-scented osmanthus

Chapter 382 Discuss with the county magistrate

Seeing that there was no way to continue, Osmanthus just said again: "Uncle Village, my father said that as long as you can help my family avoid this year's tax and grain, all the surplus grain of my family will be used to help the villagers."

"Take them all out?" Guan Dashan's eyes lit up when he heard that he took them all out.

"Well, I only keep my family's rations for one year, and take out the rest, and my family has a lot of dried wild vegetables, which are the same as food. Except for the rations, the rest are also taken out to share with them. Let’s help the villagers with food. Uncle Village, do you think this is good?”

"Okay! Good, good!" Guan Dashan was so excited that he almost didn't jump up.

As long as Chu Lishou's family speaks, other people in the village who have surplus food will be able to relax. If this continues, everyone will tighten their stomachs and save some food and drink. If they want to wait until next spring, then the problem will not be big ah!
"Third brother, thank you on behalf of the whole village!" Guan Dashan got up and bowed to Chu Lishou.

Chu Lishou hurried forward to support Guan Dashan, his face was flushed, and he didn't know whether he was frightened or excited.

Osmanthus fragrans saw that Guan Dashan hadn't noticed her premise at all, so she hurriedly said, "Uncle Village, please don't rush to thank us, we haven't finished talking yet!"

"Yes yes yes!" Guan Dashan wiped his face with his hands, "Uncle swears that next year's autumn harvest will be harvested, and he will watch over everyone and return all the food owed to your family."

faint!
Osmanthus fragrans stared helplessly, she had only half listened to what she said just now!

No, this misunderstanding cannot be allowed to develop by him.

"Uncle Village, did you listen to what I just said! What we want is not to pay back the grain next year, but you to ensure that my family does not have to pay taxes and grain this year!" Dashan listened carefully.

"Not paying taxes?" Guan Dashan was stunned for a moment, and it was obvious that he was shocked.

For such a reaction, Osmanthus fragrans had already guessed it, and replied unhurriedly: "Yes, no tax and grain. Uncle village, think about it, our village was hit by a disaster, and other villages are the same. My family’s taxes and grains were not deliberately escaped, but my family’s taxes and grains from other families in the village were not necessarily enough. Even if they were sent to the imperial court, they might not be willing. It’s a lot of trouble. But if the tax and grain can be exempted and distributed to the villagers in our village, maybe we can support two more families! Don’t you think so?”

It's not that Osmanthus fragrans thinks well, but that she really thinks so.

The imperial court harvested grain, exploited it layer by layer, searched it layer by layer, and there might be some leftovers of the food that could actually reach the imperial court. In this way, it would be better to fill the stomachs of the people than to cheapen those corrupt officials.

After hearing what Osmanthus fragrans said, Guan Dashan fell silent.

How could he not know about the pickling in the annual harvest, but if he doesn't pay taxes...

After thinking about it over and over again, Guan Dashan finally made a decision.

"Okay! Just follow what Osmanthus fragrans said, but uncle can't give you an answer if this will happen. Uncle has to go to the county and discuss it with the magistrate."

Tax-free food is a big deal, but it is not something that a small village head like Guan Dashan can do. He naturally has to ask the county magistrate for his opinion.
