Governor please stay

"If you pay taxes, they will give you a certificate to fish in their ponds and log in their woods, right?"

"Yeah, why do you even know this!"

A Tao was very surprised by Liu Yishou's "knowledge". Perhaps in her opinion, these palm-sized things are also great "secrets".

Liu Yishou waved his hand, and continued to ask: "Your family should have their own land, just enough to make ends meet. But the aristocratic family in Jinan County has been forcing you to sell the land, right?"

Hearing this, A Tao was even more surprised.If you can find out about those things before a little inquiring, these are their own affairs.Unexpectedly, this ridiculously handsome man in front of him could judge so many things from his few words.

"That's true... this gentleman, why do you know everything, it's amazing!"

A Tao wished that little stars would pop out of her eyes.

"I guess, the land rent of the family tenants is not necessarily higher than what the government charges you, right? The rent collected by the government in Jinan County should be higher than that of the family tenants."

Liu Yishou frowned slightly and said.

This really touched A Tao's heart.She sighed and said, "Who says it's not? Our tenants only pay [-]% of the land rent, but for those who have land, the government charges [-]% of the land rent! My father is still hesitating whether to sell the land to those big households."

This is a typical local force that completely controls the local administration, and then borrows the name of the imperial court to cooperate with the aristocratic family to execute land annexation.After those self-cultivating farmers sold their fields and became tenants, the aristocratic family changed the land rent from [-]% to [-]%, just a matter of words.

Taishou Lin of Jinan County has very flamboyant wrists!

Liu Yishou couldn't help but sigh in his heart.They completely monopolized the surrounding mountains, forests, swamps and ponds, leaving the fields to the farmers.However, if a person wants to live, it is not enough to rely on the harvest in the field, but also needs other non-staple food, fuel (firewood) and so on.

Relying on oppressing the living environment of the owner farmers, forcing them to become tenants, and carrying out slow and continuous land annexation.The methods used in Jinan County are much more sophisticated than those simple and rude old men in Dongping County who were hanged on the flagpole in the end!

"I missed you picking wild vegetables and mushrooms today, so I guess you won't be able to explain it when you go back. How about this, you come back to Dong'a City with me, and I'll send someone to deliver some rice to your house, and I'll report you safe by the way, how about it?"

Liu Yishou said with a smile.

A Tao was a little hesitant, but she felt intuitively that if Liu Yishou wanted to do something to her, it seemed that he could do it here.And the other party is so good-looking, there should be no shortage of women, right?

She nodded mysteriously and said: "Okay, but you must send someone to my house to report that it is safe, my father and brother will be worried."

This little lady is very simple, and the siblings in the family are not as indifferent as those of the big family. Some people even hope that their brothers and father will die early every day.

The two walked out from the "gate" of the abandoned city. Liu Yishou came in over the mountain before. After walking out through the gate, he discovered that this fortress was built on the mountain, with the Yellow River to the west, Jishui to the east, and the Official roads that have been in disrepair for a long time.

In those days, it was a very remarkable place, and it was a horn of each other with Fufen City, and its strategic position should not be underestimated.Linked with Fufen City, it formed a military "gate", blocking the only way for Jiaodong to enter Henan these years.

Liu Yishou suddenly had an idea, when Diao Yong gave Tan Daoji a sap here, can he give Xing Gao a sap here?

When he went in, he was alone, but when he came out, there were two people. Wang Wei saw a young woman behind Liu Yishou, and he didn't know what to say.

For some people, he just doesn't do anything, and there are women who want to pounce on them.Could it be that this is Liu Yishou?

Wang Wei, who was still alone now, suddenly felt that the dog food was unpalatable.

……

"Uncle, last time I was beaten by the Gao brothers. The soldiers were unwilling to send troops south again. They wanted to go to Hebei to seek revenge from the Gao family."

After all the generals left, Er Zhuzhao said to Er Zhurong with a bitter face.In fact, this is only part of the truth, and the other part is that too many people died last time, leaving the living with lingering fear.

They had already earned enough in Luoyang, and wanted to save their lives and enjoy it.In the past, I went out because I felt that it was safe to follow Er Zhurong, and nothing would happen. Anyway, wouldn’t you just be idle anyway?

The incident of being assassinated by the Gao brothers made them realize that as long as they are human, they will die, and they must not think that they are invincible.Anyway, I have made enough money, why continue to fight my life on the battlefield?

"Then what do you think it should be?"

Er Zhurong asked calmly.

"I think..." Er Zhuzhao hesitated for a long time, and finally said what was in his mind: "We let Yuan Tianmu go to Hebei, gather the old subordinates under Ge Rong's command, and let them perform crimes and make meritorious deeds.

These people were pardoned by us before, but they didn't have an inch of credit, and I feel uneasy thinking about it.Give them a chance now, and these people will definitely work hard.

Then we had a good discussion with our military leaders.If Yuan Tianmu can't get it right, then we can only do it, and the soldiers will have no complaints if they think about it. "

This bad idea... I have to say, there is still a little bit of meaning in it.

Obviously, Er Zhuzhao's pig brain couldn't think of such a thing.Er Zhurong didn't bother to worry about what kind of staff his nephew recruited, he thought for a while, and felt that this matter seemed feasible.

After all, Yuan Tianmu was from the Yuan family!

Since Emperor Xiaowen promulgated the decree, those other than the five clothes do not enjoy state offerings.Since then, the Yuan clan has been divided into two factions, the pro-clan and the Shu-clan.And judging from the trend, it must be that there are more and more people outside the fifth server, and the power of Shuzong is getting stronger and stronger!

These Shuzong and Yuan clans all wished that the lineage of Emperor Xiaowen would die soon, and Yuan Tianmu was the Shuzong of Shuzong!He can't even be regarded as the blood of the emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty!His ancestor was brother with Tuoba Shiyiqian.

So for Emperor Yuanshi, Yuan Tianmu wished that they would die sooner!

But regarding the existence of Wei State, Yuan Tianmu hopes that it will exist as long as possible!

Yuan Tianmu's enthusiasm for repelling Liang's Northern Expedition was much higher than that of Bill Zhurong.There is nothing wrong with letting Yuan Tianmu lead the army and guard Luoyang as a vanguard.

Recruiting Hebei Ge Rong's old troops to consume the strength of Liang Jun is even more coup.

"So, let me talk to Yuan Tianmu, it shouldn't be a big problem."

Er Zhurong said with a sigh.An evil thought arose in his heart: Since Liang Jun is so brave and courageous, how about selling Fei Mu to Liang Jun?

Fei Mu is also a famous general, and he is good at defending the city.Let Fei Mu and Chen Qingzhi fight to the death, wait for Liang Jun to do Fei Mu, and then come forward to clean up the mess, it seems... not bad?

After Er Zhuzhao left, Er Zhurong narrowed his eyes, thinking about the pros and cons.

……

The little lady, A Tao, was terrified!

Of course, it wasn't that someone was going to do something to her, but that in the huge hall of the county government, many generals, including Liu Yishou, looked at her eagerly and listened to her talk about the situation in Jinan County.

"Everyone, there is no right to speak without investigation. We can't make decisions based on our own imagination about Jinan County. Now Mrs. A Tao is the best witness. No one is allowed to speak later. Ask me in private if you have any questions. Mrs. A Tao, You can start talking, starting with your family's land rent."

Liu Yishou smiled and said to A Tao.

But the village girl was too nervous to speak, because she felt that the people in front of her should be "good people", and she was afraid that if she said something wrong, it would cause serious consequences.

Alas, it seems to be thinking too much.

Liu Yishou lamented in his heart, it's normal for a village girl who has never read a book or seen the world to face so many of Qiu Ba's big bosses at once and tremble with fright, A Tao is quite calm.

"Okay, it's okay, I'll let Mrs. Jia take you to the wing room to rest first."

Liu Yishou said softly, A Tao thanked him and left.

After she left, Liu Yishou said solemnly to the generals: "Jinan prefect Lin seems to have done some very disgraceful things, colluding with the local family.

This is probably the key to their ability to gain a foothold in the local area as outsiders.Therefore, in Dongping County, we use the tenants as the breakthrough point, and here, we use the owner farmers as the breakthrough point.

It is the illegal occupation of mountains, forests and swamps by local aristocratic families. We must take good care of them. "

Mountains, forests, swamps, ponds and rivers are all state-owned, but they can be bought and sold.Emperor Xiaowen promulgated the decree.The question is, who "sold" these things to the family?This is a muddled account.

Liu Yishou just wanted to yell at those people: Give me a punch, old thief!

For the more cunning exploiters and oppressors, there are more subtle ways to deal with them.If not, how can you survive the Xing Gao refugee army who "has not paid food for three years"?

Liu Yishou felt that it would be better for those bullies of aristocratic families to die than to die himself, right?

Chapter 167 Everyone Will Remember We Came Here

The scale of Dong'e City is much smaller than that of Xuchang City, but Liu Yishou's family members came here together and lived in a simple courtyard, which seemed a bit crowded.

At night, after Jia Chunhua put A Tao to sleep, she went to the study to have a detailed talk with Liu Yishou.

"First of all, let me be clear. This yard is very small. Don't drag women in. Besides, you have to reserve a place for yourself."

Liu Yishou put down his pen, and emphasized with some helplessness: "There can be no more people."

"I have never seen someone like A Lang who thinks there are too many women in the backyard. Okay, let's get down to business. Well, let's start five years ago, five years ago..."

When Jia Chunhua spoke eloquently, Liu Yishou waved his hands and said, "I'm talking about the main point."

"What I said is the point."

Jia Chunhua poured Liu Yishou a glass of wine, and then said: "Five years ago, there was a young lady who was digging wild vegetables at the foot of the mountain not far from her home, and then saw a young general covered in blood. She saw that he was going to die, so she sent her to the hospital. He took it back to recuperate.

In the recovery process, you know, that's the kind of thing. "

Jia Chunhua teased, and blinked at Liu Yishou.

"Yes, yes, young men and women have a crush on each other. I can't bear that kind of thing together. I understand, I understand."

Liu Yishou nodded his head, his young body is just very greedy for enjoyment.If each other accepts each other, many things will come naturally, and no one will force the other.Just like when he kissed Jia Chunhua, she didn't resist at all and cooperated very well.

"Then, this little lady married that general. Of course, the only witnesses are the little lady's parents and brothers. But..."

Jia Chunhua stopped, and Liu Yishou asked suspiciously: "This young general is a lustful man who covets girls' bodies, and he just ran away after playing?"

"Uh, that's not true. The general was later captured by Liang Guoren."

Jia Chunhua said awkwardly.

"Liang people?"

"Yes, A Tao heard that you are a general commanding tens of thousands of troops, and she begged me to tell you if I could get her husband back."

Jia Chunhua felt that Miss A Tao was really infatuated, and she hadn't remarried after five years.She was not pregnant with a child, and the man had no witnesses.It's hardly considered a remarriage these days!

Similar to Gao Huan once had a first love named Han Zhihui, the two of them finished everything, and when they were about to propose marriage, they were beaten by their mother-in-law.Then Gao Huan was spotted by Lou Zhaojun and posted upside down afterwards, and Lou Zhaojun didn't think Gao Huan was married.

At this time, it is not after the Southern Song Dynasty, there are many such things, and it is common for men and women to get on the bus first and then pay for the ticket.

From this point of view, Miss A Tao's personal virtues are pretty good.

"Finding someone is like looking for a needle in a haystack in the vast crowd, and I don't know if that general is still alive. The soldiers are fierce and the battle is in danger. I don't know how many people will die in a battle, alas."

Liu Yishou sighed, he thought it was unnecessary, but he still asked, "What's Mr. A Tao's name?"

"She said her husband's name is Yang Zhong."

Jia Chunhua thought for a while and said, in fact, she didn't take this matter seriously, she came here today to ask Liu Yishou if he wanted to take this little lady into the backyard.For a type like You Niangzi, Jia Chunhua will make the decision on her own, and wait until she gets it.

However, A Tao already has a husband, and although he is missing, he never forgets her.If Liu Yishou was allowed to take it for himself, it would be somewhat ugly, at least you have to ask Liu Yishou what he means first.

"Yang Zhong!"

Liu Yishou stood up in surprise!

The eldest son of Yang Zhong, Yang Jian, was the founder of the Sui Dynasty. His mother was born in a poor family, not a poor family. There was not even a single outstanding relative in the family... These things gradually overlapped with A Tao's identity and background.

Could A Tao be Yang Jian's biological mother?

Liu Yishou thought maliciously, if A Tao was taken into the backyard, there would probably be no more Yang Jian in the world!However, it is hard to say what will happen in the end.If Yang Zhong doesn't marry A Tao, there will be women from aristocratic families waiting for him, and it is unknown if he may develop faster in the future.

It is good to let everything take its course, there is no need to interfere in a boring way, and ruin the wonderful marriage between Yang Zhong and A Tao.Isn't there a saying: It is better to demolish ten temples than destroy a marriage.

"Yang Zhong, who was born in Six Towns, is burly and courageous. He is good at leading troops and can break through formations. He is a rare brave general. He was well-known in Wuchuan Town in his early years, but he was captured by Liang Guo unexpectedly. .”

Liu Yishou sighed with emotion.

"So, Miss A Tao, you want to send it back?"

Jia Chunhua also noticed that Liu Yishou didn't mean that.For some reason, she felt a burst of joy in her heart.

When encountering this kind of thing, even if a woman says she doesn't care about it, even if she can't stop it, even if her status is low and she is not qualified to toss about it, she will inevitably feel sad secretly.

"If you send it back, what if the children of a certain family in Jinan County run rampant in the village and harm A Tao?"

Liu Yishou asked back.

Jia Chunhua was speechless, and A Tao was also a bit pretty. She looked soft and beautiful, and also had a timid desire to protect. It's hard to say that those children from aristocratic families have played with all kinds of beauties, would they Will change flavors on a whim.

"So just..."

"Just let her be a servant with a special status in the backyard. Don't let her do heavy work, just do your usual things, and you can relax later. You don't have to deliberately support her, That seemed ill-intentioned.

Anyway, tomorrow I will ask Yuan Shikang and Wang Wei to go to her hometown to send some rice and grain, and then I will do some things by the way. "

Hearing what Liu Yishou said, Jia Chunhua breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Liu Yishou had no intention of giving A Tao to his subordinates as a concubine.She gently held the other person's hand and said: "Ah Lang's adult beauty is what a gentleman does, and the concubine is indeed right."

"Hey, what's the point of showing off on a poor and infatuated woman? You underestimate me too."

Liu Yishou looked at Jia Chunhua softly and said: "Those people who are struggling at the bottom are suffering enough, and there is no one to speak for them. Even if I can't do anything, at least I should listen to what they are saying. Why not eat?" The minced meat thing can't just be seen as a joke.

By the way, did A Tao tell you about the situation in their hometown? "

After going around for a long time, I finally talked about serious things.Jia Chunhua said hastily, "I've said it, it's a very clear question."

Jia Chunhua told the whole story, Liu Yishou nodded slightly, but didn't say anything.

The power of the aristocratic family in Jinan County is particularly strong. Since the founding of the Northern Wei Dynasty, this area has been the tenants of the aristocratic family organization, farming in peacetime, and a part in wartime.

The imperial court also relied on these people in particular.

It is conceivable that if the aristocratic family in Jinan County is not strong, and Xing Gao is not doing charity, will he not get involved in Jinan County?
