Wife's Funny Life

Ever since the tax notice was issued by the team section, all the rich and small merchants of Qu Yang County started to move.

There were policies and countermeasures. These days, there isn't much money, but it depends on your courage. Crooked Yang County had a lot of bandits, and the people were also very valiant. One must know that those ruthless bandits could have been just a simple and honest farmer who cultivated in the fields yesterday.

In short, the taxes in Crooked Yang County were not easy to collect. This was one of the reasons why Master Liu had so readily presented the taxes here as a gift to Wu Anguo. If it really was fat, Master Liu would have long since eaten it himself.

Wu Anguo woke up in the morning and looked at the soft little girl sleeping. He sighed helplessly and quietly got up, telling her to continue sleeping. Besides eating meat, this little girl loved to sleep late.

Wu Anguo finished washing up, lightly pecked the girl on the forehead, then walked out after taking his entire army uniform out.

Xu Bao, who had been left behind, continued to snore. Suspicious crystalline liquid flowed from the corner of his mouth.

In the team section, Zhang Shiqing handed an invitation to Wu Anguo, inviting him to have a meal at the Pleasing Restaurant, signed by Zhou Sihai.

"Zhou Sihai?" Wu Anguo had some doubts. He had never interacted with this person before. It was just that in the past, when Zhuang Gun was the Guild Leader, he still had some connections with the Guild Leader.

Zhou Sihai was a huge bully in Qu Yang County. Previously, he had been on good terms with Captain Zhuang, but Wu Anguo had not had any conflicts with him upon taking office. However, the two of them did not have any special relationship.

"Regiment Commander, I'm afraid it has something to do with this tax collection. I've checked and found out that out of all the tax collection records in Crooked Yang County, almost none of them belonged to Zhou Sihai. If you count it now, the tax he has been owing us for so many years should be 8000, even if he didn't owe us 10 thousand." Zhang Shiqing analyzed as an advisor.

Wu Anguo thought about it, then decided to go to the banquet and see what he was planning for this Thursday.

"Come, come, come. Captain Wu, please take a seat." As soon as Wu Anguo and two guards stepped into Pleasing Restaurant, they heard a loud and clear invitation. They looked up and saw a very wide man coming down the stairs. He was talking politely, but his actions were extremely arrogant.

He then took a look at the entire restaurant.

Zhou Sihai had a small mustache, which didn't match with his broad body. Wu Anguo didn't stand on ceremony and sat down at the head of the table.

"You're welcome, Mr. Zhou. May I know what business you have with me?" After sitting down, Wu Anguo didn't bother to beat around the bush and directly asked.

"Alright, I like Captain Wu's straightforward manner. Then I won't hide anything. I've heard that Captain Wu is preparing to collect taxes, so I'm prepared to lend you a hand!" Zhou Sihai stroked his mustache and said with a smile.

"Is that so? Could it be that Mr. Zhou wants to pay back the tax for so many years? That would really be a great help to me. " Wu Anguo did not have a good impression of Thursday's harm, so he did not buy it.

Zhou Sihai's hand that was stroking his beard paused for a moment before he quickly recovered. He laughed out loud: "Captain Wu, you are so humorous. I am good friends with Guild Leader Zhuang. Did he not tell you about the collection of taxes?"

Wu Anguo said impolitely, "Boss Zhuang is already in the past. Why don't you tell me about it, Mr. Zhou?"

Faced with Wu Anguo's rudeness, Zhou Sihai acted as if he did not see what Wu Anguo was saying, and continued to smile: "I am just a country bumpkin, and should not be worrying about Captain's matters, but when Captain Zhuang is here, he has been entrusting me with the task of collecting taxes. If it were not for me, Captain Zhuang's taxes would not have been collected at all."

"Oh! "What does Mr. Zhou mean?" Hearing his words, Wu Anguo showed surprise on his face.

Guild Leader Wu doesn't know, this Qu Yang County is not big, it is not small, but the tax is not easy to collect, there are tax evasion and repayment fees, there are all kinds of people here, I am sure that you are a military lord and you do not know it, according to the previous practice, I will have to work hard to collect all the tax for you, the conditions are good, and the 20% goes to me. Zhou Sihai looked like he was sincerely serving the people.

Although Wu Anguo didn't call for a patriotic revolution like Song Yinhan, but just like what Zhang Shiqing had seen, he was sometimes too kind and kind at times, just like when he was busy with Thursday, but he hated such a bully from the bottom of his heart and didn't even want to give him face. "Thank you for reminding me, Mr. Zhou, that if Mr. Zhou could pay all the taxes you've owed, I would be very grateful. As for the agreement between you and the captain, I don't know much, and I don't want to know more."

Zhou Sihai did not expect Wu Anguo to be so tough.

When Wu Anguo stood up, all of Zhou Sihai's servants stood up and blocked the door, looking like they were ready to take action at any moment.

Zhou Sihai was very proud of this scene. In Crooked Yang County, he was considered the biggest squire, and the servants and weapons under him were no worse than those of the regiment leaders. If it was on a normal day, it would have been fine if he did not interfere in the business, but this Wu fellow was too much of a bully, did not know the rules, and actually came to collect his tax, and did not ask around to find out who Zhou Sihai was? The previous county magistrate wanted him to pay three points for it.

Seeing that the deterrence effect had been activated, Zhou Sihai put down his face and angrily shouted at his men, "Sit down! What are you doing? This is Guild Leader Wu, the father and mother official of Qu Yang County! What are you doing!"

Then, he turned to Wu Anguo with a smile, "Captain Wu, your subordinate doesn't know anything, so don't take offense to it. However, you can consider the matter of collecting tax first.

Wu Anguo also smiled and said, "Tomorrow, I will definitely pay a visit to Mr. Zhou's home. I'm afraid Mister will not welcome me."

With that, he led his men away, no longer looking at Zhou Sihai.

At that time, Zhuang Niao was collecting taxes for his teachers and colluding with Zhou Sihai and Li Xueyi, giving them a bit of each other's money. Of course, this was good, but now, with the tax authority in his hands, why should he give a share to such a despicable person?

When he returned home, Xu Bao was eating.

Seeing that his big brother had returned, he was very happy, "Quickly tell me, where did you go to eat delicious food? I just went to look for you. Big brother Zhang said that you went out to eat delicious food. Did you bring it for me?"

Seeing that the little girl, Wu Anguo, had lost her temper in an instant, she rubbed her little head and said, "Your big brother went to eat at the Hongmen Feast, so he doesn't have anything. I'll come back and eat with you now."

"What is a Red Gate feast? Nothing to eat? Isn't that a lie? " Xu Bao had a puzzled look on his face.

Wu Anguo picked up the food his third aunt served and wolfed down his food. He was now working too hard, on one hand he had to take care of minor matters, on the other hand as a soldier, Wu Anguo didn't want to separate from his soldiers after being promoted. It was better to train and communicate with each other often, so the atmosphere of the sixth regiment was always better than the other regiment's.

Wu Anguo felt that he couldn't explain it to her, so he went all out to eat and eat. Xu Bao was stunned for a moment before realizing that the number of dishes was rapidly decreasing. He immediately reacted and began to fight over the food with his big brother.

On the other side, Zhou Sihai went back to his old home, Qingyang Manor. He was extremely angry.

Wu Anguo's last sentence was that he was going to use force, and it was the same with Zhuang Gun in the past. At the beginning, Zhuang Gun was unwilling, but he sent a team to collect taxes, but in the end, he couldn't even enter his house.

Zhou Sihai's power and influence were much higher than when he first teamed up with Zhuang Cannon. It was all thanks to the taxes. Those who came to seek refuge with him at Qingyang Manor would not have to pay taxes. They would only have to pay a portion of the money to help him collect the taxes, which would be a little less than the tax, but they would all be put into Zhou Sihai's pocket.

All these years, he had been building up his manor, tall and big, and was also rich. He could buy anything, his weapons and equipment were good, and he was becoming more and more arrogant. In his eyes, those soldiers were not even comparable to his servants.

However, for Zhou Sihai to become an overlord of a land for so many years, aside from his overbearing and tyrannical appearance, it was actually his caution that had helped him. In his opinion, Wu Anguo would be like the old cannon this time, bringing people to take a walk around the city before dejectedly leaving to talk about cooperation with him.

But just in case, he made a second move.

He was cautious enough to exchange all the money he had stolen over the years for gold bars. At this time, the prices were unstable and gold bars had the best value preservation. In the afternoon, when no one was looking, Zhou Sihai was alone in the basement of the manor, putting the gold bars one by one into the large vats and wrapping them up in a bag. He then covered them with mud, stuffed them with pickled vegetables, and finally sealed them.

The pickled vegetables had to be cooked from the ground, and only when they were cooked properly would they taste good. The servants didn't know where the lord had gotten so many pickled vegetables, but a few jars were nothing special. The servants finished moving and went off to do other things.

Moreover, he could see a few jars of pickled vegetables outside through the window, and others could not take them away either. He felt that he was becoming more and more brilliant because he did not even tell his wife about it; who would have thought that these jars of pickled vegetables would contain all of his possessions? He was truly too smart!

The team section. Dinner. Xu Bao looked at the beef on the table. He really wanted to die.

Suddenly, she really missed the sour vegetables in the countryside. It was sour and appetizing! Better than beef.
