The words fell.
There was silence.
The black soldiers under his command controlled Cai Xian Cheng, who had not yet come to his senses.
When people sit in the county government office, pots come from the sky!
"Eight Young Master, I...I don't know."
The Prime Minister of Cai County begged for mercy, but his tears flowed down his face.
But I didn’t believe this at all.
The dignified Shanfu County Magistrate and the third master of the Cai family don't know what Cai Hui has done. Isn't that just telling lies? !
"Here!"
"We will obey the Eighth Young Master's order."
The magistrate and lieutenant of Shanfu County responded hurriedly.
"You two, if you see something breaking the law but don't deal with it, you will each be given twenty lashes!"
Ying Ziye said coldly.
"Here!"
The two of them breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you for punishing me, Eighth Young Master."
It wasn't beheading or demotion, but the punishment was feeling lucky.
Several black armored soldiers pushed the two men to the ground, and whipped them with long whips.
boom!
boom!
boom……
There were sounds of penetration, and the skin of the two men was torn apart.
The punishment is over.
Led by the Shanfu County magistrate and others, the army went to Cai's house to capture the criminals.
Faced with the wolf-like officers and soldiers and the imperial cavalry, hundreds of members of the Cai family were all captured in a matter of seconds.
"What a sin!"
The head of the Cai family looked sad. If he had known this, he would have killed the traitor Cai Hui.
Now the Cai family has lost their lives because of their son's greed for money and lust.
Conquer the family and exterminate the clan!
All farm property was counted and rushed into the treasury.
At Caishikou in Shanfu County, Ying Ziye personally supervised the execution.
All the adult men of the Cai family abandoned the market with their waists cut off.
Women and children were exiled to the northern border of the Great Wall.
After handling the matter, Ying Ziye led the army back to Pei County.
at night!
Within the inn.
Duke Lu brought his two daughters, Lu Pheasant and Lu Su, to express their gratitude to Ying Ziye.
"Eighth Young Master, thanks to you today."
Lu Gong was extremely grateful and bowed his hands.
Lu Pheasant and Lu Su also bowed Yingying and said with a smile: "Eighth Young Master, thank you."
"No need to be so polite!"
Ying Ziye waved his sleeves and said with a smile, "Sit down first."
The four of them sat facing each other.
Mr. Lu sighed deeply and said with a sad expression: "I am here to pay my respects to the Eighth Young Master this time. In addition to thanking you."
"I beg the Eighth Young Master to let the two little girls stay with the Eighth Young Master!"
"I also know that my two daughters' thoughts are with the Eighth Young Master, even if they are slaves and maids!"
"This, this matter is unnecessary!"
Ying Ziye waved his hands and refused, saying, "How could Mr. Lu speak like this? It would be too embarrassing for me."
"well……"
Lu Gong sighed, looked at Lu Pheasant and Lu Su, and said, "You go out first, I have something to discuss with the Eighth Young Master."
"Father."
The two women looked at Mr. Lu with complicated expressions in their eyes, but they still walked out of the room.
After the two of them left.
Plop!
Lu Gong knelt down in front of Ying Ziye and said respectfully: "I know that the two little girls cannot reach the level of the Eighth Young Master."
"But now I am old, and the two girls are arrogant. I have looked for many people for them, but they all look down on me."
"And I don't know when I will die. If the two girls are left behind, they will definitely suffer humiliation. I beg you to show your love. Even if you accept me as a slave, it is better than living on the street without enough food and clothing."
"I even encountered what happened today again, and was spotted and robbed!"
Mr. Lu burst into tears and kowtowed to the ground.
boom!
When Ying Ziye saw this, he hurriedly helped Lu Gong up. He couldn't bear to see a father arranging a stable life for his daughter and even knelt down to plead.
He had no choice but to agree temporarily: "Okay, I promise you."
"Thank you, Eighth Young Master!"
Lu Gong said with great joy: "Then I will feel relieved."
Ying Ziye sighed in his heart, but he planned to settle Lu Pheasant and Lu Su separately in the future.
Stayed in Kuaiji for several days.
In these days, Xiao He followed the previous measures and took the lead in implementing them with Kuaiji as the center, and the results were somewhat effective.
Many people of the right age, men and women over fifteen years old, choose to get married during these days.
As long as you get married and have a child for one year, you can be exempted from land tax, calculated tax, household tax, etc. by 10% per year!
One more person and one more year will add 10% to one more year.
If it dies midway, tax reductions and tax reductions will be discontinued.
From birth to the age of seven when raising children, men's corvée service is reduced by half.
At the same time, after raising a child to the age of fifteen, a child will be rewarded with five acres of field or pasture.
Untie the shackles of merchants and at the same time collect commercial taxes, vehicle and horse taxes, and establish a tax department, which is independent of the county government and has law enforcement and audit powers!
However, it stipulates some detailed regulations. Those below a certain scale and profit will be charged less by small traders, and farmers will not charge taxes on the eggs and fruits they produce at home.
In addition, there are many measures, such as restricting large squire households and those with tens of millions of acres of fertile land. The implementation measures are different.
The purpose was to encourage people to have more children, reduce farmers' taxes, allow people to breathe, and collect merchant taxes.
Under such display.
The faces of the lower-class people in Pei County were filled with smiles. The burden they usually felt to have children was instantly replaced with motivation.
Although I don’t understand why the rewards include pastures in addition to fields, the government has said that pastures can be used to raise cattle and sheep for profit.
The government also received a lot of tax money from merchants, which was much higher than the tax money it received from the common people.
And this also made the officials clearly realize how rich the businessmen were.
Ying Ziye walked around Pei County in the past few days, looking at the streets and markets that were busy with traffic coming and going, and they were more prosperous than before.
"Brother Xiao, you did a good job!"
Ying Ziye patted Xiao He on the shoulder.
"It's all inspired by the young master!"
Xiao He looked humble.
at the same time.
News also came from Xianyang.
"Master!"
The bad person respectfully reported: "With the help of Confucianism and his Confucian background, the eldest son Fusu quickly obtained many official positions in the court, but most of them are civil servants."
"On the contrary, Hu Hai seems not to be interested in official positions on the surface, but secretly, Zhao Gao is recruiting people from all over the world for his own use, and on the other hand, he is taking care of the vacant positions in the army so that his subordinates can People hold office.”
When Ying Ziye heard this, he didn't say anything, but instead looked at Xiao He aside.
Xiao He looked shocked, but he didn't understand why the Eighth Young Master wanted him to hear such an important thing.
"Brother Xiao, what do you think of this matter?"
Ying Ziye asked with a smile.
Faced with this question, Xiao He's face turned serious, he raised his hands and said respectfully: "In the house of the emperor, I dare not judge at will!"
