Five years of county magistrate, 100 million catties of grain shocked Li Shimin

"Fang Inspector, would you like to give me some more money, so that I can sell my brother to you for a longer time?"

Xue Jiaoyan winked at Fang Yuan.

"how long?"

Fang Yuan smiled lightly.

This happened to suit him as well.

"Another year!"

Xue Jiaoyan stretched out a finger and smiled even wider.

"Yes, I can double the amount, but there is a condition."

Fang Yuan pondered for a moment, nodded and said.

"Give twice as much?!"

"You can say whatever you want!"

Xue Jiaoyan blushed with excitement.

His eyes were wide open, as if he had fallen into a money jar.

"You can't unilaterally break the contract!"

"The extra part will be given after one year!"

Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.

"No problem, no problem."

"What about the contract, let's re-sign!"

Xue Jiaoyan shouted excitedly.

As he spoke, he fetched a white paper from Hongxu Qingyan beside him.

Then he took out the contract signed with Fang Yuan before, and wrote another copy, changing the price, time and breach of contract.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the new contract was successfully signed, and Xue Jiaoyan smiled like a child holding the new contract.

Looking at Fang Yuan, he actually felt that he was at a loss, and really wanted to change the number of years to a little longer.

But after thinking about it, forget it. If there is a chance in the future, I can renew the contract again.

Xue Jiaoyan carefully put the contract back into her arms, and returned the pen to Hong Xu.

At this time, she finally noticed that Hongxu and Qingyan were settling accounts.

"Workers are 650 yuan, 82 yuan per person, which is [-] yuan and [-] yuan."

Xue Jiaoyan blurted out.

As for this number, Qing Yan was constantly calculating, her fingers were almost swollen.

"That's right, it's 82 pens and five hundred words!"

"Miss Xue, you are amazing, what about this, what about this?"

Qing Yanzheng's calculation was about the same, and the abacus quickly came up with the answer, and immediately knew that Xue Jiaoyan was right.

Then write down the number, and point to one of the places and ask.

"Thirty guan was paid in advance, 24 guan and 580 wen were used to buy materials, and there were 25 workers who each worked for 79 wen per day. They worked for a total of 470 days...that is, [-] guan was left."

After Xue Jiaoyan read the accounts, she figured it out in a moment.

"Wow, sister Yan, you are so amazing!"

Hong Xu and Qing Yan suddenly showed admiration in their eyes.

Before I knew it, I changed from Ms. Xue to Sister Yan directly, which was a huge change.

Looking at it, Fang Yuan was extremely shocked.

He tried to do the math, but it took a few minutes to figure it out.

This is calculated based on the learned operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

And Xue Jiaoyan only calculated by mouth, without the blessing of arithmetic from later generations, she could calculate it so quickly.

Genius, great arithmetic genius!

"Xue Jiaoyan, my family is short of someone to settle accounts, are you interested?"

"The monthly salary is [-] per month, including food and housing... You can move here and see your brother conveniently."

Fang Yuan raised his heart to attract.

It would be a pity not to recruit such a powerful arithmetic genius.

In Fang Mansion, Hongxu and Qingxiong theoretically also have a monthly salary of [-] yuan.

But Fang Yuan didn't care when they usually eat more food.

"One hundred dollars a month?!"

"I'm interested, I'm very interested."

Xue Jiaoyan exclaimed.

Hearing that there is one hundred dollars a month, she didn't notice what Fang Yuan said later.

"Then take some time to move here."

Fang Yuan was slightly taken aback, then smiled.

Unexpectedly, it was so easy to win.

I knew that Xue Jiaoyan loved money, but I didn't expect to love money so much.

"I'll move in tomorrow... no, I'll move in tonight."

Xue Jiaoyan said quickly.

She got up quickly and ran towards the door excitedly.

Maybe it was because she was too swollen to run because she was wearing too many clothes, so she fell to the ground with a thud.

Fang Yuan and Hong Xu were startled, they quickly got up and wanted to help her, but she had already got up.

"You wait for me, I will move here tonight."

Xue Jiaoyan left a word and ran again.

Only ran a few times, fell down again, and then left Fang Yuan's sight.

Fang Yuan and the others looked at each other, their expressions were very strange, one moment they admired the other party for their calculations, but the next moment...

That night, Xue Jiaoyan really moved in.

But she also moved with her old housekeeper and his wife.

He said that he had lived with Lin Bo for a long time, and it would not be good to keep the two of them in Xue's residence, so they came here together.

The Fang family has a big business, and there has been no butler, Hongxu and Qingyao are in charge, Fang Yuan has no objection when many housekeepers come over.

In a few days, November ends and December arrives.

On the first day of the lunar new year, the magistrates of the three counties all went to the governor's mansion to pay taxes.

Fang Yuan handed it in to the imperial court in mid-December, and the local county magistrate handed it in on the first day of the lunar new year.

"Inspector Fang, this is the county's tax situation, please have a look."

In the meeting room, Wang Chengzhe and the others handed the tax list to Fang Yuan.

Fang Yuan took it, and directly settled the matter with Si Hu and his assistant.

Taxes are counted on the spot, and they can only leave after confirming that they are correct.

This year, the crops in one city and three counties in Liaozhou were not good, but because of Fang Yuan's arrival, many people made money and all they handed over was money.

"Inspector Fang, this year's drought in Guannei Road has affected many areas in Hedong Road. Presumably, the tax revenue of many counties in Hedong Road cannot meet the standard."

"However, we have enough taxes for one city and three counties in Liaozhou. If we hand them over in advance, maybe the imperial court will be overjoyed and give us some rewards in Liaozhou."

Sun Taihe suggested.

The Pingcheng County he manages is the farthest from Liaozhou City.

Relatively speaking, the development of Pingcheng County is not as good as the other two counties.

But after Sun Taihe became the county magistrate, he immediately transferred all the family business there.

As stated in the resume, he is trying to keep up with the development of Shangzhou City, and many people in Pingcheng County have been employed.

"really."

"The lower official is also thinking about it."

Zhou Kai said respectfully.

He also had this idea and was about to say it.

It's a pity that Sun Taihe said it in advance, what a pity.

"It's a good idea."

"After counting the taxes of the counties, I will send them to Chang'an City."

Fang Yuan pondered for a moment, and thought it was a good crime.

When he was in Wuling County, he didn't want people to know that a small place was developing so well, so as not to be targeted.

But when he came to Liaozhou, he had already become the governor and belonged to one of the princes. At this time, he should shine his own light.

Only in this way can he attract the attention of high-level officials more, get more favorable policies from the imperial court, and the road to promotion in the future will be much smoother.

"My lord is wise!"

The three of Zhou Kaile saluted together.

The overall benefits of Liaozhou are also related to their three county magistrates.

At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, the taxation of the people was not heavy, and the payment ratio was one forty taxes.

In other words, if you harvest forty catties, you will pay one catty of tax.

If there is no food, pay at the local food price.

In the afternoon, after the taxes were counted, the three left.

After they left, Fang Yuan asked someone to pack it up.

The next day, they were sent to Chang'an City.

......

The Imperial Palace of Chang'an City.

Li Shimin held a simple high-level meeting in Yushufang.

A few days ago, Tang Jian, Minister of the Ministry of household affairs, wrote a letter: discussing the issue of tax reduction and exemption in Guannei Road and Hedong Road.

"Your Majesty, I believe that due to the severe drought in Guannei Road this year, and the impact on Hedong Road and other places, the harvest has dropped sharply, so the corresponding tax should be reduced or exempted."

Tang Jian stated his opinion.

He submitted his memorial at the end of November, and today he was free to hold a discussion on the third day of December.

"Tax exemption is a good thing."

"But the imperial court is about to start a war against the Eastern Turks, which is a matter of national destiny. Will the tax exemption at this time cause problems in the supply of food and grass in the future?"

Li Jing, Minister of the Ministry of War, was the first to speak.

Whether it is tax-free or not, he never participates in discussions and meddles.

But the war is about to start, and the food and grass must be prepared, otherwise the war will not start.

If the army's morale is disturbed due to insufficient food and grass in the middle of the war, it may lead to the possibility of defeat.

"We all know the great drought in Guanzhou, and the impact on Hedong Road and other places, and everyone knows that I support tax reduction and exemption."

"However, the war against the Eastern Turks is an opportunity that cannot be missed. If you miss the opportunity, you may not have such a good opportunity again. Will the tax reduction and exemption affect the food and grass?"
