Lei Zihao sat on the rocking chair in the bedroom on the second floor of the town hall, frowning and looking at the upgraded city information displayed on the wall. This total war system is good everywhere, but this tax cycle is obviously unscientific!
Damn, we have to wait until the end of the year!
This is mainly because the agricultural tax, which occupies a large part, can only be collected at the end of the year and the autumn harvest. This is why Lei Zihao is not worried about food shortages. By the end of the year, thousands of acres of farmland have been reclaimed, which can definitely satisfy the population of Longhan Town Consume!
Every time there is a large increase of refugees, Lei Zihao will never forget to expand the area of ​​cultivated land. Anyway, this thing does not cost money, and the refugees who have been allocated land will undoubtedly turn their hearts to Lei Zihao!

Of course, as the master of Longhan Town, Lei Zihao can naturally collect this year's tax in advance, but if the tax is collected in advance, the amount collected will be reduced. The longer the advance period, the greater the reduction!
The reduction in the amount of taxation in advance is mainly due to the difference in the price of grain when there is no grain harvested. Unless Lei Zihao wants to lower the popularity of the people and forcibly lower the price of grain, otherwise, he can only bear the relatively high market price to convert coins ...

Therefore, the tax collection once a year is mainly set to wait for the grain to mature!

However, more than half a year has passed since the 500th year of the Dark Calendar. Even if Lei Zihao collects taxes now, he doesn't have to bear too much difference. According to the calculation of the tax official's entourage Wang Er, it is not a problem to collect 5000 gold coins. For Longhan Town, which is in urgent need of development, the shortfall of 500 gold coins is not a big loss!
Lei Zihao still clearly remembered that when he first came to Longhan Village, the estimated tax was only 1000 gold coins...

After more than half a year of development, with the rapid increase in population, tax revenue increased five times, and we can be considered a nouveau riche...

As for the full loyalty officer rewarded by the main mission, it is also the only officer Lei Zihao has, so naturally it is the so-called 'loyal dog'!

It's just that the name "loyal dog" seems to be a derogatory term...

【Name: Xu Tangran

From: Longhan Town
Loyalty: 10 stars

Position: Longhan Town Affairs Officer

Wisdom: 8 stars

Features: Do things without morals and no lower limit
Attributes: Loyalty (the officer will never betray the lord), ruthless, doggy (increase the lord's personal safety), secret agent chief (leader-level assassin attribute, the lord before the 5-star prestige can only generate at most one event of this attribute He is proficient in all types of intelligence and assassination matters, and is good at coordinating the entire spy network or the establishment of an internal monitoring network. He is an indispensable leader in spy politics!)
Remarks: He is a dangerous person to anyone except you, the governor, because as long as there are enough interests, he can stab everyone in the back, whether it is the enemy or his own people, except the governor!Don't be fooled by his appearance, killing people with a smile is a special enjoyment for Xu Tangran! 】

After Lei Zihao looked at Xu Tangran's attributes, he understood why the system gave him the name of a loyal dog...

Such a person, if placed in a certain position, seems to be good!

There was an inexplicable brilliance in Lei Zihao's eyes, and he appointed Xu Tangran as the head of the intelligence agent!
Subsequently, Xu Tangran's position was changed to Longhan Town Intelligence Officer.

Lei Zihao knew that this appointment had to be notified to Xu Tangran himself, and soon, a mediocre man who had been waiting for a long time, who was neither arrogant nor impatient, came to Lei Zihao's study!

He was dressed in the coarse linen clothes commonly worn by villagers on his body which was neither fat nor thin. There was nothing surprising about it. As long as such a person was thrown into the crowd, he would be able to perfectly 'disappear from the crowd'...

This face is really suitable for being a spy!

A real spy is not the character 007 played in the movie. He is handsome and cool, and he can arouse ignorant girls' "oh hoo" wherever he goes.

The most important thing for a spy is not how good he can fight, how many soldiers he can single out, but to learn how to truly hide in the vast crowd!

Naturally, if he was too handsome or too ugly to be noticed easily, wouldn't such a spy sneak into the enemy's rear and think that he didn't die fast enough?

Historically, real elite spies have no exaggerated looks or handsome looks at all, the more ordinary the better!
For example, an old man sitting on a rocking chair watching the sunset, a beggar squatting on the side of the street with eyes wide open...

Presumably, there are not a few idle and pain-intensive soldiers who are willing to search for such people...

As soon as Xu Tangran entered the door, his face was as if he had been tempered for thousands of years, with an unsightly flattering smile on his face...

"Slave Xu Tangran pays homage to the governor, the governor is a man of great talent and strategy, and works hard to govern. Under your governance, Longhan Town will surely become famous and dominate..."

"Stop! I've seen your loyalty. You are very good at intelligence work, aren't you?" Lei Zihao hastily stopped Xu Tangran's chatter. At first glance, this person doesn't have the gloomy look of Jin Yiwei at all. How do you feel?
If it hadn't been clearly shown in the information, Lei Zihao would have thought that Xu Tangran was the kind of sycophant who could only flirt and flatter horses...

　Xu Tangran, the character recommended by book friends in the book review area, has joined. The author will seriously consider joining every character who has written detailed information!
