back to the field

Qin Tian didn't arrange for her to handle important affairs at the beginning, but asked her to help copy some old books with old paper and illegible handwriting.Later, seeing that she was honest when she was working, and she didn't have any crooked thoughts, that's why she got in touch with some tax books.

Tang Sixian was in a daze, thinking that he was back when he was an undercover agent, but unlike the mediation of drug dealers, this was more like an undercover corruption case.

Fortunately, she also understood that Qin Tian's cautiousness was not due to corruption, but simply because he didn't trust her enough to entrust her with such an important matter.

Every time it was time for tax collection, the government would issue a bill containing the specific content of the two taxes to Lizheng, and then Lizheng would go to collect the tax.If the tax work has not been completed by the specified time, then this part of the tax needs to be borne by Lizheng.

For this reason, at the end of September every year, Lizheng will lead people to knock on doors door-to-door to collect taxes.

After Tang Sixian got in touch with the tax book, he discovered that Qin Tian was losing money every time it was his turn to be upright.If it wasn't for the great fortune of the Qin family, and the loss was within the scope of what he could bear, the Qin family might have gone bankrupt long ago.

Seeing that Tang Sixian's fabricated books are neat and tidy, the contents are kept in different categories, and the tasks assigned to her can be completed well, Qin Tian arranged tasks for her, "There are many household registration changes in the village this year, Qin Yu arranges household registration and other The matter has also been approved by the government, so you go to his place to check the fifth-class production book with him."

Tang Sixian went to Qin Yu's house with a few books in his arms.When the latter saw her, he was heartbroken when he thought that his daughter might have fallen in love with this "boy"!

"The one-month agreement to hire you to fish has come, why are you still here?"

Tang Sixian wasn't afraid at the moment that he would drive people away, and said with a smile: "Li Zheng asked me to come to the village secretary to check the fifth-class production book."

When Qin Yu heard this, it was a serious matter this time, and he had no way to drive her away, "Didn't Qin Gui handle this matter in the past?"

Qin Gui is the son of Qin Tian, ​​and Tang Sixian knew a little about his family members during those days when he was in and out of the Qin family.

"He has too many things to do, and he can't keep busy. Besides, I write neatly and do things carefully, otherwise Lizheng wouldn't ask me for help."

Although her words were suspected of being a peddler, Qin Yu had to admit that if she had no ability, Qin Tian would not be able to entrust her with such an important matter.He had no choice but to let her enter the house, and took out the fifth-class production book of Zhenqian Village and other documents.

In the past, he had Qin Ruanlun and Qin Zhen to help him, and Qin Ruanlun was going to Beijing to catch the exam in a few days, and now he was studying with his head hanging on his shoulders, so he didn't want to disturb him, so he could only call out Qin Zhen.

He asked Qin Zhen to sit opposite Tang Sixian, while he stood beside them, staring at them.

Qin Zhen: "..."

Tang Sixian: "..."

Why did she feel like the two of them were visiting prison instead of working?

"Prison guard" Qin Yu glanced at her, and said, "Don't you want to check the birth book of the fifth class? The birth book of the fifth class is here, what are you doing?"

Putting aside his distracting thoughts, Tang Sixian first took out the Qin family's proof, that is, the tax payment notice, and gave it to Qin Zhen, "I brought the proof of the township scholar's family for you."

The Qin family didn't buy any new property or have any new income this year, so Qin Zhen has already figured out how much this year's autumn tax will be paid.After getting the certificate, she looked at it and found that it was not much different from her, so she handed it to Qin Yu.

"I don't know how many citrus can be sold this year, and the miscellaneous tax is increasing every year." Qin Yu sighed.

The forest land tax is lower than that of the field, but some miscellaneous taxes have to be paid when the fruit is sold.

The Qin family has five acres of fruit forest, of which two acres are planted with tangerines and two acres are planted with oranges.Citrus is a very popular fruit here, but too many people grow it. If it is not a special variety, two or three citrus are only worth a penny during the harvest season.

You have to subtract the daily maintenance and hiring expenses, and after a calculation, not much goes into the wallet.

Qin Yu sighed at the side, while Tang Sixian and Qin Zhen over there had already started communicating as if no one else was there.He sat on the side for a while, and found that he seemed to have no use other than wasting time here.

It happened that Qin Ruan Lun came out to drink water, so he pulled Qin Ruan Lun aside and said, "Da Lang, come out here to read, and by the way, keep an eye on Tang Sixian, don't let him do anything wrong with your sister."

Qin Ruanlun agreed.When his father went out, he really sat next to the two of them to study.But the sound of the discussion between the two still disturbed him, Qin Zhen said: "Brother, it doesn't matter if you go back to the room to study."

"But..." Qin Ruanlun glanced at Tang Sixian.

Qin Zhen couldn't help laughing and said: "Brother, don't worry, this is in our house, there will be nothing wrong."

"Alright!" Qin Ruanlun returned to the room.

Tang Sixian's body went limp all of a sudden: "Your father and your elder brother are using me as a prostitute to guard against it?"

Qin Zhen smiled: "Is it my father and brother? Could it be because of your bad reputation?"

Tang Sixian sat up straight, and just wanted to say that no matter how bad her reputation was, it had nothing to do with the "prostitute", but then she remembered the coquettish manipulations she used to deal with Tang Sihai, Liu Laoyu and others, and suddenly lost her confidence.

She handled the documents obediently, and after a while, she looked up at Qin Zhen again, her eyes a little tangled.Biting the tip of her pen, she asked: "Little lady, have you ever heard that my uncle still has a sister alive?"

Qin Zhen tilted his head and said, "To be honest, I didn't even know that your uncle had a brother before you and Atang returned to Jiejie Township. Besides, I wasn't born 20 years ago. I never knew you had an aunt."

"Oh." Tang Sixian was not surprised. She just thought that there is no impenetrable wall in the world. No matter how much the Tang family concealed the people and events of the year, there would definitely be one or two clues.

"However, since she has lived in the country, she will definitely leave traces. If you want to inquire about her, you might as well start from this aspect."

Qin Zhen's thoughts coincided with Tang Sixian's.Downs nodded enviously with a smile, and took up his pen to process the paperwork again.

Suddenly, without raising her head, she asked, "Little lady, what is the difference between me and the men in the village?"

Qin Zhen's gaze focused on her again, but he saw her slowly raise her head, her eyes full of curiosity.Qin Zhen thought for a while and said, "You are special."

"What's so special?" Tang Sixian was really curious. Could it be that her behavior is far from that of a man, showing signs of it?

"Extremely bold, extremely cheeky, and extremely treacherous."

Tang Sixian: "..."

Why does this kind of answer have a kind of earthy love story style?It would be much more beautiful if those derogatory words were replaced with praise words.

Although she didn't know whether Qin Zhen had told the truth, she still breathed a sigh of relief - she was really afraid that she would miss her and not see that Qin Zhen liked her.

Now it seems that she was right. This little girl's heart is darker than the ashes at the bottom of the pot. Even if she is shy, she may be pretending.

Qin Ruanlun occasionally came out to take a look, seeing that the sitting postures of the two had not changed, so he went back to his room to study.Tang Sixian glanced at him, packed up all the documents and books, and asked, "When is your eldest brother going to Beijing?"

"Let's wait a few more days!"

"Walking by water?"

Qin Zhen asked back: "Why do you care so much about my brother all of a sudden?"

"I just want to remind him that there are thieves running around in the mountains at the junction of Raozhou and Shezhou. If he goes to Beijing, he can avoid it if he can!"

"Thanks for the reminder, I will let him know."

After Tang Sixian left, Qin Zhen relayed her words to Qin Ruanlun.She didn't want to say it during the meal, worrying that Qin Yu and Su's would think wildly when they knew the road was not peaceful.

Qin Ruanlun asked carefully: "How did Brother Tang know about it? Can you tell me where it is?"

"I didn't say that. The two of them came back from Shezhou. They must have encountered something when they passed there... I heard about it, so I specially warned my elder brother!"

"I see." Qin Ruanlun frowned.

Originally, his classmate was seasick and afraid of water, so he wanted to go by land instead, going to Suzhou and Hangzhou first and then by water.If what Tang Sixian said is true, then the land route cannot be left.

-

After Tang Sixian helped Qin Tian deal with the paperwork for a period of time, he took the opportunity to ask him about the situation of the pond.Qin Tiandao: "That is the public pond. Although it does not belong to any family, it is used to store water for everyone to irrigate the fields. Why do you ask about this?"

The pond was not dug by hand, but a small natural lake. Later, the government filled the lake to build fields, and then it was reduced from a freshwater lake connected to various water systems to a pond the size of half an acre today.

Landlords from all over the world like to occupy water conservancy and water sources, but because there is a big signboard of the Tang family in Jijie Township, it is highly valued by the government, so such a thing of blatantly seizing the pond has never happened, so the pond has become a no-man's land .

What Qin Tian said was consistent with what Liao Sanlang told her, and she didn't hide it, saying: "I just want to ask if the pond can be rented, and I want to rent that pond to raise fish."

"No." Qin Tian refused without thinking.

"Why?"

"Lease it to you, and the villagers whose fields are near there will definitely not agree."

"I just want to raise fish there and not stop them from using water. Besides, there is a river a few feet away from the pond. If there is no pond, their crops will die. If it dies, it must not be The problem is not enough water, but they are too lazy."

Qin Tian reminded: "They won't do the same with you. They only think that the pond that originally belonged to them suddenly has a person who owns it in name, how can they be reconciled?"

Tang Sixian also expected that this matter would not be so easy, so he stopped mentioning it.

After she went back, she found a carriage parked at the door, and instantly regained her spirits: the family who can use the carriage to carry it must be either rich or expensive!Is this a big deal?

The person driving the carriage looked familiar, she approached, "Isn't this the official next to Vice Envoy Rong?"

The man didn't exchange greetings with her, but simply explained the purpose of his visit: "I was ordered by the deputy envoy to buy fish."

Obviously outside Raozhou City is the famous Poyang Lake, and there are many expensive and delicious fish, but the deputy envoy of their family wants him to come here to buy.If it weren't for Leping County not far from Raozhou City, and it takes half a day to drive a carriage back and forth, he would think that he did something wrong, and this is his punishment.

"Oh." Tang Sixian led him into the yard and picked two fish for him.

He was dissatisfied: "I even brought the barrels, just to buy more, how come there are only two?"

He only brought back two at a time. After this month, he would have to run and break his legs, right?

Tang Sixian said indifferently: "It's going to be winter now, and the river has to rest, so we won't be able to catch many fish."

The man said: "How is that possible? Poyang Lake has a lot of fresh fish every day because fishing boats shuttle there non-stop."

"How big is Poyang Lake, and how big is the river in our village? There is no comparison. If I have a pond to raise fish, I will definitely have all kinds of fish regardless of the season."

The man said nothing, and went back with two fish and Tang Sixian's words.

Within two days, Qin Tian suddenly received a letter from Vice Envoy Rong who had someone bring him. He was not very literate, so he hurriedly asked his son Qin Gui to help him read the letter.

After listening to the contents of the letter, he was silent for a long time.Qin Gui was a little puzzled: "Father, why did the deputy envoy ask if there is a pond in our village where we can raise fish?"

Qin Tian rubbed his head and said: "Don't ask, go and find Tang Si first."

Only Tang Sixian mentioned to him that he wanted to find a pond to raise fish, so why did Deputy Envoy Rong write to him to ask him, the answer is self-evident.

He really didn't expect Tang Sixian's fish to be so tempting that Deputy Envoy Rong would ask about this in person in order to have a bite of the fish.

He murmured: "Sure enough, it's the style of a child of an aristocratic family!"

When Tang Sixian came, Qin Tian told her: "Instead of renting that pond, you might as well buy it. In this way, even if the villagers don't agree, it will still belong to you. However, if you fulfill the permission of the villagers The promise of water for irrigation, I can help you buy that pond from the government."

Downs didn't know why he suddenly changed his mind, but she thought she didn't have that much face, so it should have something to do with Deputy Envoy Rong.

Could it be that the hint she gave worked?

She smiled and said: "Li Zheng is fair and fair, I will listen to Li Zheng."

"One more thing, if the pond belongs to you, your household and other property should also be rearranged."

"Understood. When I buy the pond, I will go to the village clerk and ask him to change the property book of the fifth class. I will not evade the two taxes and corvee that should be paid by me."

Qin Tian was worried that if the matter dragged on for too long, more people would know about it and accidents would happen.He said: "You prepare the money and household allowance as soon as possible, and follow me to the Yamen."

Tang Sixian agreed, and went back to mention the matter to Tang Qingman.Tang Qingman took out all the money she had saved, "After making winter clothes, I bought a lot of things, so these days, I only saved these, you can use them all!"

"No, you keep it for emergencies, I still have it here."

"Even if you bought the pond, you still have to spend money on fry and feed! No matter how well your fish sells, you won't be able to save enough for more than a month, right?"

This was exactly what Tang Qingman said.Qin Tian also said that although the pond is not too big, whether it is buying land or ponds, the most expensive thing is not the land price, but various additional taxes.

For example, one mu of land in Raozhou area costs ten guan ren, but if you add up "tax payment", "reconnaissance and cooperation money" and "removal of Mo money", one mu of land costs twelve or thirteen guan ren.

Ponds are not as expensive as fertile land, but they require a lot of money.Tang Qingman was born and raised in this era, so he naturally envied these things better than Tang Si.

Tang Si said enviously: "Someone bought a recipe for fish balls from me, and the bid has already been [-] yuan. It's enough for me to sell the recipe."

Tang Qingman didn't say much to her, and directly handed her the money, "Sixian, do we have to be so polite?"

Tang Sixian was stunned. Seeing that there seemed to be tears in Tang Qingman's eyes, she softened her heart and accepted the money.

Recalling that Qin Zhen said that they are not like two siblings, she said: "I have no siblings, and no relatives. I am used to being alone, so I didn't mean to be polite to you, but I am still not used to it."

When she said that, Tang Qingman was finally not so depressed.

-

Tang Sixian didn't wait two days before Qin Tian called her to go to the yamen to go through the formalities of buying the pond.After getting the title deed, she first went to Qin Yu to update her fifth-class property book.

Because she often troubled Qin Yu, she couldn't come to the door empty-handed, so she consciously brought a fish to the door.

As the day of Qin Ruanlun's departure approached, Qin Yu and the Su family were busy making arrangements for him.Hearing her intention of coming, Qin Yu was not impatient, and said: "A few days ago, Niang Zhen said that it's okay to leave the small products of your household for later processing, so it's still empty, and I'll just add it to you. gone."

Seeing that Qin Yu didn't ask Qin Zhen for help, Tang Sixian asked, "Where did the little lady go?"

Qin Yu was instantly alert: "Why are you asking this?"

"Ask whatever you want."

"Is it okay to ask about this?"

Tang Sixian thought for a while, and said solemnly: "Then let me ask solemnly."

Qin Yu became even more wary of her: "Get out! I've settled things for you, so don't run to my house."

Tang Sixian had heard these words countless times, but when it was time to run this way, she would still come over.For this, he still smiled and thanked Qin Yu, and planned to take a look at his own pond.

Passing through the Qin family's orchard, Tang Sixian saw that the orange trees that were originally full of small white flowers had fallen, and only the blue fruits were hanging on the branches, falling heavily.

There was a pale pink figure looming among the orange trees. She wanted to say hello, but a dark-skinned man ran past not far away and said courteously, "Little lady, I, I will help you!"

"Zhang Hu? Why did you come here?" Qin Zhen's voice was as soft as ever, "I just picked a few rotten fruits, and I don't need to use my hands."

"I passed by and heard people in the garden say that the little lady is doing these rough jobs, so I—" Zhang Hu stammered.

Tang Sixian thought to herself, she must have bumped into a confession scene, right?If the plot of the dog blood TV series develops, she is very likely to be discovered, and then the embarrassing mode of the three parties taking care of each other will start...

After thinking about it, she was about to leave, but she thought—this place is considered remote, what if Qin Zhen was taken advantage of by that man in her absence, and finally had to marry him because of his reputation?

Qin Zhen didn't care about his fame and didn't marry, and he was forced to marry after his reputation was ruined. These are two different things.

So she stepped over the broken fence and shouted: "Miss Qin, why is your fence broken? If you don't fix it, what will you do if you get burglarized?"

Zhang Hu was startled. Seeing that it was her, he subconsciously took two steps back.

She noticed Zhang Hu's movements and walked up to him: "You know me?"

Zhang Hu nodded, but did not answer.

Qin Zhen looked at her: "Why are you here? Are you passing by?"

Tang Sixian suddenly realized that he didn't answer, and he didn't answer.Because she was really passing by, but with Zhang Hu as an example, even if she told the truth, Qin Zhen might not believe it.

"I came here on purpose to look for you. Didn't I just buy a pond? I need the help of the local secretary to change the property, so he asked me to come and look for you, saying that he can handle it better with you here."

At first glance, it sounded like that, so Qin Zhen didn't ask much.

Zhang Hu wiped his sweat on the hem of his clothes with his hand, and said awkwardly: "Little lady, since you don't need help here, I'll go back first."

After speaking, he left in a hurry.Tang Si frowned enviously: "What did I do to him? Why is seeing me the same as meeting Hades?"

Qin Zhen glanced at her, and said: "You have a fierce reputation, and an honest and honest person like Zhang Hu is the least willing to confront someone like you. In addition..."

She paused, Tang Sixian was still waiting for her to continue, but she turned around and went back to pick the rotten fruit.

"What else?"

"It's nothing."

Tang Sixian gave a "tsk", seeing that she was not deceived by him, he asked again: "Why are you still picking fruit here and not going home?"

"My father didn't ask you to come to me, of course I'm still here." Qin Zhen said calmly.

"……How did you know?"

Is this a mind reading ability, or is it because her acting skills are too poor to reveal her secrets?

"My dad can take care of that little thing, and he won't call me back on purpose." Qin Zhen said, reaching out to pick a rotten fruit from a high place.

Downs envied that she was still out of reach even though she stood on tiptoe, so she just stood by and watched the show happily.

Qin Zhen decided to give up the rotten fruit, but Tang Sixian picked it off for her after watching the show, "Here you are."

Qin Zhen raised his head and stared at her, his eyebrows slightly curved, and said: "Thank you, but can you break it for me by the way? I can't break it."

Her voice was soft and her tone was gentle. At first hearing, one thought she was being coquettish.

Tang Sixian's back suddenly went numb.She intuitively felt that it was not that simple, but she took the orange half-believingly, and with a little force, the orange split into two pieces.

She was frightened by her thoughtless behavior, and thought: When did I start acting like a baby?

Qin Zhen fixed his eyes on the oranges and exclaimed in feigned horror: "Oh, there are a lot of fruit maggot larvae!"

Tang Sixian looked subconsciously, his body froze for a while, and then he swung aside suddenly as if he had been stung by an orange.

Looking at her whole body, aside from the goosebumps all over her body, her wheat-colored face quickly faded to white, the corners of her eyes were red, and cold sweat broke out on her forehead. She looked as if she had some kind of sudden illness.

She didn't look like she was pretending, Qin Zhen saw something wrong at a glance, restrained the smile on the corner of his mouth, and asked with concern: "What's wrong with you?"

It took a while for Tang Sixian to come back to his senses, but her complexion was still not very good, and her lips were still bloodless.

"I'm fine..." As soon as she finished speaking, her head spun and she fell straight down.

Qin Zhen subconsciously reached out to support her, but was brought down by her weight and fell to the ground.

There was a burning pain in the palm and knee, and it was obvious that Qin Zhen was also seriously injured by the fall.But she didn't care about herself, and hurried to see Tang Sixian's situation.

Fortunately, Tang Sixian was still breathing in and out, but fainted temporarily.

"Tang Sixian." Qin Zhen tried to wake her up.

Downs frowned enviously, and his palms were a little cold.

"Isn't she fainted by the insects?" Qin Zhen felt a little guilty. She wanted to test Tang Sixian, but she didn't expect that this seemingly fearless person would be fainted by the insects.

Qin Zhen just wanted to pinch Tang Sixian's people, but a bold idea came up in his heart.She looked around and saw that no one was present, so she reached out and touched Tang Sixian's chest.

The author has something to say: I fell off the horse unexpectedly!

Tang Moujian: So you took advantage of my coma to do this kind of thing that is inferior to a beast!

Qin Fuhei: ...Would you believe me if I said that your chest is too well corseted and you don't feel like it?
