Although he was in the capital, he found that the people in Chang'an County were extremely poor.
Although the people in other counties are not rich, they are not so poor.
Even they can't even grow food, and some people are starving and skinny.
All these are good things done by Wang Wencai, which makes people very angry.
When the people in the fief saw Li Hong coming to inspect, they thought he was here to collect rent.
Then a leading elder walked over humbly.
"General Li, this year's rent has been taken away by Wang Wencai. I'm afraid we have no rent to pay for the time being!"
"He took them all away?"
Li Hong was taken aback for a moment, he was indeed late in taking office.
All these rents should have been collected and filled the treasury.
However, seeing the miserable conditions of the people in his fiefdom, Li Hong couldn't bear it.
"I will order you to be exempted from taxes for one year. This year, you can just rest and cultivate the land."
The old man thought he had heard it wrong, and was stunned for a long time.
It took a long time to come back to his senses, and he quickly knelt on the ground.
He bowed three times and kowtowed nine times to Li Hong, "Thank you General Li, thank you General Li, you are simply a merciful and benevolent person!"
What is the concept of one year's taxation, that is to say, this year, the people's families only need to enter money without paying out accounts.
Families that were not well-to-do can also recover for a while.
Li Hong hurriedly helped the old man up, knowing the truth of exhausting fish.
These people have nothing to eat, how can they pay taxes?
When the time comes, the government forces the people to rebel, don't make it out of a peasant uprising army.
If something like this happened in his fief, he couldn't escape the relationship.
Instead, exempting them from taxes for one year will be more conducive to collecting taxes by themselves in the future.
But when he saw the farmland of the people's homes, there seemed to be nothing.
I was a little curious for a while, "You don't have any seeds, why don't you plant anything in the field?"
"General Li is right, that bastard Wang Wencai not only collected heavy taxes, but also robbed us of all the grain we planted.
We can't grow anything now, and some families have already started to starve to death. "
"So that's it, that Wang Wencai is really nothing!"
"Who said it wasn't."
"How about this, you count the number of people in Chang'an County, let all those who can't afford to eat come to my house to get some food first, and then I will let people distribute seeds to you, and you can continue to sow."
The old man was very moved after hearing this, it was like a fairy coming down to earth!
It was the first time he had seen such a generous manager. At first, everyone hoped that they would not be like Wang Wencai.
Unexpectedly, Li Hong has greatly exceeded their expectations, not only unlike Wang Wencai, but also kind-hearted.
He had a premonition that the people of Chang'an County were about to usher in good times.
For a while, the old man knelt down to Li Hong again.
Even kowtowing to thank him could not express his inner gratitude and excitement, even if Li Hong pulled him up, he couldn't pull him up.
"Okay, stop kneeling, go and count the number of people, let those who can't afford to eat come and wait at the gate of my Li residence, and I will distribute food to them!"
"Yes, General Lee."
The old man hurriedly stood up, thanked him twice, and hurried back to tell everyone the good news.
When he went back, he found that many people had gathered and were waiting for his news.
After seeing him come back, a group of people surrounded him.
"How about that newcomer, won't he be like that bastard Wang Wencai?"
"I think it's probably true. Didn't you see that old man Wu knelt down for him twice just now?"
"It must be pressing for food, this day can't be passed!"
"..."
After watching the scene just now, a group of common people thought that Li Hong and that Wang Wen were the same.
He was so angry that he was trembling all over, and even had the idea of rebellion.
Chapter 193 Chili
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Old man Wu interrupted everyone, "General Li is not only a good person, but also a great kind person!"
"Oh? Why do you say that?"
"General Li asked me to count the number of people, so that we can't afford it.
