As soon as Zhao Huan asked this, He Ji, who was not far behind Zhao Huan, waved over a horseman from the Imperial City Department and whispered: "Import brothers to be prepared."

After his maid turned around and left, He Ji focused on the stall owner again.

"Never increase taxes? Abolish corvee labor?"

The stall owner nodded and said, "Of course I already know, otherwise why would the official family be stupid and have more money?"

Zhao Huan's face turned dark again and asked, "Why is Xiangcheng still so poor? z... It's so poor. To be honest, I have seen many county towns along the way, but I have never seen anyone as poor as Xiangcheng."

“Hi~~~”

The stall owner sighed and said, "Or why would the official family be stupid and have more money?"

Zhao Huan's face suddenly became darker.

If you are stupid and have too much money, you can't get over it, right?

The stall owner saw Zhao Huan's ugly face and thought that Zhao Huan thought he was not speaking well, so he said directly before Zhao Huan asked: "Our Xiangcheng County has indeed implemented the official "Never Add Fu Edict" and has completely abolished the corvee service. But..."

Zhao Huan asked, "But what?"

Seeing that Zhao Huan was supporting him in time, the stall owner stopped keeping him in a silence and said, "The taxes in Xiangcheng County have been received by Jingkang for 16 years! There is also the corvee service, which is completely abolished, but are there any accumulated debts over the years?"

Zhao Huan was a little confused. After a while, he rubbed his forehead and said, "Wait, I'm a little confused - it's only six years of Jingkang, how can I get this tax for the 16th year of Jingkang? And this corvee service, if it is abolished, why do I have to be owed again? Can this thing still be owed?"

"Why can't that be?"

The stall owner asked a question and then slowly explained.

Now the taxes in the Song Dynasty collect both food and money. In the process of collecting food, Xiangcheng County has created a magical invention of rat and bird consumption—

After the grain is entered into the granary, it may be stolen by rats and birds, but this loss cannot be counted on the court, so when the people hand over the grain, they have to hand over the part eaten by rats and birds together.

In addition to the rat and bird consumption, there is another branch—

It’s not enough to just pay the food, you have to hand it over to the place designated by the official. If you don’t want to transport it, then you can honestly pay the transfer fee, and the freight is calculated based on the transportation distance. Why not just hand it to the granary? That’s all your business! If you don’t pay it, it’s okay, maybe you have to transport it to the official thousands of miles away.

What's even more awesome is that the magistrate of Xiangcheng County also creatively invented "pre-urban" and "pre-borrow".

The so-called pre-urging means that in the spring of the sixth year of Jingkang, the taxes for the autumn of the sixth year of Jingkang, the taxes for the seventh year of Jingkang, and even the eighth year of Jingkang. This is called pre-borrow.

The same is true, including corvee labor—

The corvee service that was abolished in Jingkang in a few years is here? Just think it was abolished in the first year of Jingkang, but it doesn’t matter anyway.

The important thing is that corvee service was not abolished before the first year of Jingkang, right? For example, in the second year of Xuanhe, our Xiangcheng County had corvee service. However, there was no major event that year, so corvee service was not collected.

However! The government does not charge corvee labor without levying it does not mean that you are exempted from corvee labor!

So, you owed the government a corvee service in the second year of Xuanhe, and now you need to be recruited to serve.

How many times have you owe?

So there are some things to do. The Song Dynasty has been established for more than 160 years, right? Anyway, if you don’t mention it, you always owe ten or eight times.

Therefore, has the edict of "Never Add Fu" been read out and implemented? It has been read out and implemented.

Has the policy of re-determining the land and ensuring that every citizen can allocate land? Is it also implemented?

Has the official's instructions to completely abolish corvee labor? It has also been implemented.

Xiangcheng County has implemented all other messy policies, including ladder tax laws and other messy policies.

It’s just that Xiangcheng County has too much execution and has creatively invented so many new ways of playing.

This is so good at playing than Qin!

"Then no one wants to sue the emperor?"

Zhao Huan frowned and asked, "The officials did not issue an edict before, saying that they would allow the people to go to Beijing to file a lawsuit, and they would also allow the people to tie these corrupt officials to go to Beijing to file a lawsuit?"

"Binding the official?"

The stall owner laughed and mocked: "When will the people beat officials? Not to mention that now, even five hundred years or a thousand years later, this common people can't beat officials!"

"Yes, the government said that the people would allow the people to tie up officials to go to Beijing to complain, but who is the only one? Don't you think about it for the whole family?"

"Even if there is such a bachelor, the government will not force him so much, right? This official is the best at serving dishes. How can ordinary people beat them?"

"I want me to tell you, it is true that this official is good to the people, but he is staying in the palace and sitting in the golden hall, basically blind with dark eyes. No matter how the local officials do whatever they want, can he know what the officials are saying!"

"Fuck it!"

Zhao Huan cursed angrily, threw the pancakes he had just held in his hand but had not eaten back to the stall, turned around and walked forward along the street.

The stall owner hurriedly picked up the pancake, blew a few breaths before carefully putting the pancake back into the basket-

It’s great to pick up a big cake for nothing! I really hope to meet more young men like this who are stupid and have a lot of money today!

"Cooking cake~! It's fragrant and big...uh!"

Before the stall owner could finish shouting the hawking, he was interrupted by those people who came out of nowhere on the street.

Most of these people were carrying Pu Dao in their hands, and some were holding other weapons. While walking towards the young master just now, these people took off their clothes and threw them all on the ground without caring about it.

"I've caused a lot of trouble!"

Looking at the obvious wrong scene in front of you, the stall owner's heart suddenly jumped up. He wanted to push the cart and run away quickly, but he was reluctant to leave the clothes that those people threw down.

How many clothes are that? Just throw them on the ground? I picked up a few items and went back. I didn’t have to buy new clothes for several years!

After making up his mind, the stall owner simply lowered his head and tried to curl his body behind the stall - anyway, he couldn't hide it. If he tried to reduce his sense of existence, he would feel a little psychological comfort, right?

...

"Give me a fight!"
