A person like Wang Mao is a typical paper tiger. He uses his tiger skin to do evil things, but when he is actually asked to do something like killing people and setting fires, he becomes intimidated. He is good at bullying defenseless people with words. When he met Li Chuyi This kind of hard work has been defeated, let alone a evil star like Liang Chuan.
When Wang Mao called Liang Chuan's home a bird's nest, Liang Chuan punched him, hitting Wang Mao right in the face. Bo'er's big fist made his nose bleed everywhere, and his front teeth flew out with a bang. His face was like a bleeding waterfall, and blood gurgled down from the facade. Liang Chuan punched Wang Mao so hard that he almost reincarnated. He fell straight down like a green onion blown down by a typhoon!
Today is a hell, the people in this bird village are all so brave and brave, everyone looks aloof when they see the official, especially this family, they are so cruel to the cripples, they will break people's hands when they come up. This host makes people see blood as soon as he comes.
Wang Mao was considered the bolder of the group. Once he lost his backbone, everyone panicked. They supported Wang Mao. Wang Mao's hand was dislocated, and his mouth and nose were bleeding. He could only breathe in, and his breath out was as broken as a game string, and he still had no energy at all.
Civil servants like Huang Tiesi usually don't know how to kill chickens, and they have never been exposed to such hot scenes face to face, so they are extremely panicked. He has also relied on this group of talents to get here, and now he has encountered a hard nail. I'm afraid that if I push him out, I'd be surprised if he doesn't get beaten to death!
Liang Chuan shook his hand, still a little hurt, looked at the tax collectors and said: "Carry the people back, Huang Tiesi, please help me meet with Mr. Lu or the county magistrate about today's matter. The reason for the matter must be explained clearly. If Magistrate Song thinks that I have to pay taxes and grain in these places now, then I have nothing to say. As for this punch, some people go too far to bully others, and we, the young people, only take action as a last resort."
Wang Mao's body was lying on the ground. Except for the ones who led the horses and carried the food, everyone else looked at Liang Chuan with a little fear. They couldn't knock down Wang Mao and the others with one punch. Sometimes fists represent strength. . They won't be so stupid that they can't find it for themselves. They will prepare to withdraw after carrying Wang Mao. A hero will not suffer the immediate loss. Huang Tiesi responded to Liang Chuan's words: "Absolutely..."
Liangchuan's household is already the last household on the north bank. All other receivables have basically been received. According to the standards of previous years, it has been completed quite beautifully, let alone this year of disaster. It is also a disaster to have such a disaster today. Mao had eaten enough to support himself. Everything was going so smoothly, but this last family wanted to cause trouble. How could a family that could afford such a big house not have some skills?
Sure enough, as soon as Huang Tiesi returned to Xinghua, he called Master Lu first. It happened that Li Chengfu was having tea with Master Lu. When they heard this, they almost jumped up. This is the butt of a tiger, Wang Mao This idiot didn't want to offend anyone, but he chose to offend Liang Chuan.
Master Lu felt that this matter was not big or small, and he was incapable of making up his mind, so he told Song Guangdou about it. Song Guangdou almost burst out of anger when he heard it, not to mention that Liang Chuan helped him out during the flood. Dali gave him another good reputation. It is the prince named Zhao behind this boy who is not the one with the senses of sesame and mung bean.
At present, the entire Jiangnan area is in swamp, and the people have suffered countless disasters. The court has ordered the states and counties to first calculate the disaster situation, and the imperial order for tax reduction and exemption has been issued. These birdies are obviously here to enrich their own pockets, and they deserve to be beaten to death. Wang Mao was carried into the county government office before he woke up. Magistrate Song didn't even look at him in disgust and asked Li Chengfu to throw this scum out and dismiss him. After he regained consciousness, he would investigate and deal with it in detail.
These are all for Liang Chuan to see. Magistrate Song doesn't want to show weakness to Liang Chuan directly, but these face-saving efforts must be done well, otherwise the relationship will be settled. He intends to win over Liang Chuan. Liang Chuan is a capable person, capable of literary and military skills, and has a strong background, so he cannot be offended.
Li Chengfu felt that Wang Mao was really unworthy of him. Wu Renyi in the county government was competing with Liang Chuan, and now he was doing very badly. You are a little guy with no head, so don't think about yourself. I also went to compete with Liang Chuan for his weight. Now it’s better. All these years of hard work have been wasted.
After Ye Xiaochai and others learned about Liang Chuan's deeds of teaching these tax collectors, they felt happy at first, but several women began to worry. Sooner or later something would happen if they fought with these people, and they were afraid of retaliation from these villains. Liang Chuan talked and laughed freely, how could he be afraid that these people would cause trouble for him? If Song Guangdou didn't cause trouble for them, they would go to the temple to fulfill their vows.
Huang Tiesi was also secretly frightened. Not only did Liang Chuan have nothing to do, why did Wang Mao say that he had been running errands for Song Magistrate for so many years and just threw it away? Fortunately, he didn't make a big deal. This fire burned him. I also have to peel off the skin every time.
Wang Mao needs to be fired, and someone else has to be replaced. Wu Renyi has recently sold out all the casinos to Li Chengfu, and several other promising businesses have come to a standstill. If this situation continues, their family will almost have to go to the streets to beg for food if they don't starve to death. . Taking advantage of Wang Mao's accident, he used some money to make up for the shortfall. As the head of the capital, collecting taxes was a bit of a waste, but money was really tight recently, and it was hard to live without making some extra money. .
It's hard to talk about tax collection. It's possible to make money, but after all, the method is too dirty. He steals food from the people's mouths and has a bad reputation. So although Li Chengfu is also jealous of this job, he is not poor yet. For that job, I want to be a tax collector. He now has several gambling stalls. The old bitch Jin Lou Huang’s mother has given up and completely transferred the ownership of this cornucopia to Li Chengfu. Now he is as happy as a god. He is sitting at home and money comes from the sky. Why bother? How much money can you make by collecting some bullshit tax if you don't want to please me?
Wu Renyi himself didn't look down on this job before. They could make a lot of money by secretly collecting gambling stalls, so they really looked down on this small amount of money. He took the tax collector out. When the tax collector saw that this was a real boss, capable of fighting and with good status, several tax collectors who had suffered a defeat in He Lu yesterday started wondering whether Wu Renyi wanted to go to He Lu to look for Liang Chuan's bad luck. Wu Renyi is not stupid. Liang Chuan's ability is as high as his. He can't even be beaten. He is now a popular man in the eyes of Song Zhixian. His own son Liang Chuan also let him go, and finally all the knots were broken. , could it be that I would find it unhappy again?
"This country bumpkin from Helu is not an ordinary person. I think you are quite smart. I would like to advise you to take a long way around when you are next to him. Otherwise, you will cry sometimes!" Wu Renyi only said this. , let the other tax collectors experience it for themselves. His own men knew how powerful Liang Chuan was. At the beginning, several people in the lower pavilion took turns using various lassoes, guns and sticks, but they couldn't do anything to him.
Wu Renyi was also unlucky. He thought he would not offend Liang Chuan and compete with Li Chengfu for land in Xinghua, but he would go to other villages in the mountains to collect taxes and make some extra money. Unexpectedly, he would reveal a huge trap. , the mountain people on the mountain were forced to rebel by this little-known little boss who demanded taxes!
Life on the mountain is already very difficult, because the land on the mountain is even more barren. Most of it is either yellow soil that is so thin that even pines and cypresses cannot grow, or red soil that has excessive pH and alkalinity and cannot grow crops. It is difficult to lift it up when the heavy rain comes. Several of the seedlings were gone again. It rained a lot today, there were several floods in the mountains, and many strong laborers died. The mountain people who usually make a living by hunting were even worse. Fortunately, bark was everywhere on the mountain, otherwise they would have eaten dirt.
Because the mountain people are less civilized, let's say they are honest. They are more honest than anyone else, but once an honest person crosses the bottom line, he is like a wild beast, biting everyone he sees and doing things regardless of the consequences! Since ancient times, it is this kind of people who are most likely to rebel.
As soon as Wu Renyi went up the mountain, he first picked out a few households and beat them half to death indiscriminately. He hung them on a tree in public for several days. These people who were hung were the only remaining good hunters in the village. Without them, there would be no hope of catching any good prey.
After beating the people, the search began. Wu Renyi asked each household to hand over fifty kilograms of grain, three clouded leopard skins, two wild boars, countless precious Chinese herbal medicines, wine, snake wine, and other small taxes, land taxes, bamboo taxes, and salt. Taxes that can be collected will never be left behind. This is not a harvest harvest, Jane is in desperate situation. This year's terrible weather has made it difficult for everyone. It will be good if they can get through this year without dying, let alone handing in so many things.
Furthermore, mountain people rarely pay taxes because they have no household registration and no land. They are equivalent to black households. They cannot enjoy the benefits provided by the court, so there is no way for them to fulfill their obligations as subjects. , if it means that a family can just accept ten or twenty kilograms of rice grain, they can hand it over with gritted teeth, but it requires animal skins and precious herbs. If they have such treasures, they still want to be mountain people. He has long since gone down to become a rich man.
The result is as expected. No one will pay any bullshit tax. This is naked robbery. Wu Renyi didn't regard these mountain people as human beings. If he couldn't get them anyway, he would fall out. If anyone didn't pay, he would be left with half his life. Or the women of the family would come to accompany and sleep with them, so that these tax collectors would be happy enough to offset their taxes. .
Finally, some people couldn't stand the bad temper of these bandits. When Wu Renyi went up the mountain to collect taxes, the mountain people set up a trap and killed and injured more than half of the tax collectors. Wu Renyi still had some hands and feet, and he was scared out of his mind. If the limelight is not right, run away quickly. The mountain people said something behind them: "Go back and give a message to the county magistrate, and I will make you bastard rebels!"
