Cannon fodder attack only wants to farm

Chapter 62 Taxes in Lingshan Village

He Zifeng stayed at home comfortably for two days. Little Heran could pick up a lot of wheat ears every day. Both He Zifeng and Qiuyu are people who can get used to children. Grab a handful of peanuts and a few ears of wheat to roast on top, and then peel off and eat the flesh inside.

It's not enough to order something like that, so He Zifeng went to find some vegetables and meat, and found that everything can be grilled.Especially if there are spices on top of the meat, it is quite fragrant.

Xiao Heran is a bit addicted, and wants to drag everyone to bake something every day.

It happened that the butcher in the neighboring village caught up with some mutton. After buying it, he went to the river to find a smooth stone, scrubbed it clean, and roasted it on it.

The whole family is addicted to eating, Qiuyu also kept this stone, so as not to find it next time.

Xiao Heran at the side agreed very much.

When He Zifeng sent the child away, the feeling of autumn was a little strong, and the next time is the Chinese New Year.

Qiuyu was afraid that the child would be cold, so she prepared some more clothes to keep out the cold. She was always worried if the child was not by her side.

He Zifeng went to work.

When he went to the yamen, there was a crowd, and he looked at He Zifeng's eyes with all kinds of reactions.

Sure enough, Catcher Zhu dispatched the task of collecting taxes, and He Zifeng and his team were assigned to Lingshan Village.

Fifty dans of grain have to be collected, and if there is no grain that can be converted into silver, silk cloth can also be made. They have not paid enough for several years, and the debts accumulated over the years will cost 100 dans in turn, and the synthesis of silver will cost almost [-] Two.

Let's put aside the words, if anyone else this year, like last year, send more people to suppress it by force.

When they heard this, the rest of the people gasped.This is a death order.If you can't make it up, there will be rivers of blood.

The surrounding villages are all watching, if they all learn from each other, then they can't get along.

This time, whether it is killing chickens or respecting monkeys, we must take action.

After finishing the work, He Zifeng left Zhu Butou to talk.

Everyone is guessing that He Zifeng must know that he is afraid now and is thinking of countermeasures.

Even Zhu Tutou thought so himself, so when He Zifeng finished speaking, he was stunned.Is that what He Zifeng told him to say?

Zhu Butou repeated what he said just now: "You mean to redeem the villagers of the mine."

He Zifeng hummed.

Zhu Butou didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in this gourd.

There is a death quota in the mine, and the money for the redemption ended up in the pockets of several managers.They are not afraid of coming to ransom, but they are afraid of not coming.

Zhu Butou said: "Let's go, let's go over and talk." Then they went there.

When the fat officer heard this, he wanted to redeem all the people in Lingshan Village at one time. Nineteen people, each with five taels of silver, that is 95 taels of silver.Even if the brothers share one point, each of them can have two to thirty taels of money. He was overjoyed immediately: "I knew that you, brother, are very capable. Since you said this, I must help."

Then He Zifeng paid the money.Sanshun had put this money with him in advance, a total of 100 taels of silver.The remaining five taels are his hard work.

Soon, these ragged people were taken back by him.

These people have been beaten and reprimanded all the year round, and now there is a feeling of numbness on their faces. Even if they are rescued, they have no expression on their faces. Sitting in the carriage, they don't know where He Zifeng is going to send them.

He Zifeng was driving outside.

There were a total of nineteen people crowded in three carriages, and only the youngest person said: "Could it be that he wants to kill us?" His voice was a little crying.

At the beginning, he just wanted to protect his family, so he was caught here to work as a coolie.

Really want to go home.

This sentence made some people fluctuate, and soon returned to lifelessness.

Five taels of silver per person, who would spend this money to buy a useless farmer like them.I heard that five taels of silver can buy a clean and decent servant in the shop.

Definitely taking them to worse.

The older man, they called him Uncle Le, said at this moment: "When you die, you will die. In the next life, let's take care of you well. Don't be so tired."

Several people stopped talking, and after a while, Sanshun got into the car but didn't lift the curtain, he was also very heavy-hearted, and finally redeemed his own people.

All the way to Lingshan Village, they came down after the carriage stopped, and the groom drove the carriage away.They got out of the car and saw that they were greeted by people from the village.

These lifeless young people couldn't react for a long time.

Then the eyes were like springs, and tears were gushing out.

"Mother, the child is unfilial, so I kowtow to you."

"Brother, I really didn't expect that I can still see you, and death is worth it."

"Sister Ying, what are you waiting for me to do? It's settled. If there is something wrong with me, you can find someone to marry, ah, be obedient..."

The emotions that had been stored up poured out at this moment.

Even the village chief is in tears at the moment. Looking at the tired and thin bodies of these young men, he can tell how much they have lost weight. He originally prepared a few words, but now he can't say anything. He just repeats a sentence: " Just come back!"

Then quickly asked each family to take away their children.There are three fatherless and motherless people, let Sanshun take them to the village chief's house first, and let them wash and change their clothes, and then burn the old clothes, which is regarded as saying goodbye to the past.

At the entrance of the bustling village, now there is only the village head left.The mayor still had tears in his eyes.He knelt down directly to He Zifeng: "Our whole village remembers your great kindness and virtue. When I go back, I will build a merit tablet for you and put it in the ancestral hall of our village to be enshrined for generations."

He Zifeng helped him up.He wept bitterly.When the ancestors of their village chose the site, they did not choose well. After several generations, they became more and more withered. Not to mention that the fields grew food, and even weeds did not grow. What should they use to pay taxes to the government? Several yamen servants kicked to the ground, and the young people from their village fought with the yamen servants.

The village chief also hated him, wishing he could spare his old bones and smash his own bones, as long as the village could survive.Later, it became a big trouble, and all the young people in his village were taken away. He had no face to face his ancestors.

But things took a turn.

Sanshun settled down, and then went to look for his father, and heard his father crying miserably, knowing that he must be remembering the sad past again.Quickly persuaded: "Father, what do you make Engong think? Today is the day of reunion, so don't cry."

The village chief wiped away his tears, took a few deep breaths, and said, "I'm getting older, and I also have a tendency to cry." Then he opened the small box next to him, and it was neatly placed inside With 100 taels.This is the tax on it.Then he took out another five taels of silver and said, "This is for you to drink."

He Zifeng received another bonus money a few days ago.I know they don't have much money in their accounts.

Said: "You keep the five liang of silver."

The village head said: "There were so many people offering sacrifices a few years ago, our whole village can still be busy for a while. We won't be able to go out when the mountains are covered by heavy snow. At that time, the whole village will learn how to make things." The more they study now, the more they discover What was done before was just scratching the surface.

Sanshun introduced to He Zifeng that now it is gathering the strength of the whole village, everyone eats together, and puts all the earnings together.After a while, the wages will be divided according to the craftsmanship. Anyway, the whole village eats a pot of food.

In the past, everyone ate bran swallowed vegetables, but now they can eat meat for every meal.

The village chief also knows now that although he can make some money, he cannot open his business every day.Can be busy three to four months a year.But in just three to four months, they can make a lot of money. Now they rely entirely on Taoist priests to make money.

I plan to improve my craftsmanship a bit more, and after I get famous, I can become a century-old handicraft village or something like that.Apart from distributing the money earned to He Zifeng and the others, the rest was used to pay tuition and practice.When they have money, no one mentions building a house.Only in this way can the transaction last for a long time.

As soon as He Zifeng heard it, he said, "Not bad."

As he was talking, he saw two yamen servants walking over, one was Fatty and the other was Shino.Although they belong to the master, the relationship between the two of them and all the brothers in the yamen is good. Seeing that He Zifeng is also there, the chubby said: "Brother He, I'm afraid you won't be able to handle it here, so I came here to help you out after thinking about it." How about it, if they are dishonest, don't be polite to them." These two men came with sabers.

Talking about helping, actually played a supervisory role.

He Zifeng said: "There is no need to help, I have already collected the money."

Both of them were taken aback for a moment, and then Siye came over with a smile and said, "Brother He is still the best." Then he asked what was going on, he had to find out.I still have to report to Master.

The village head said a few words, and the two yamen servants were shocked that the village had come up with a solution in such a short period of time.

Then hurried back.When He Zifeng handed in the 100 taels.The entire yamen gate was shocked.

The county magistrate heard about it and personally called He Zifeng inside to reward him.He not only handed over all the debts of this year, but also recovered the previous bad debts, which is a real credit.The magistrate of the county said: "The position of deputy head arrester is yours. It's not easy for anyone to come. At the end of the year, you go to the accountant to pay ten taels of silver. In the future, you will have to share my worries!"

In the master's room separated by two walls, a shocked expression appeared on his face: "He really paid all the money?" No, it is not easy for people in Yinzi County to make up all the money: "Did he pay the money himself?"

Si Ye said: "They found a way to make a living. The whole village makes funeral supplies, and they are exquisite." He was also quite convinced. He knew what the village was like before, but now it has completely changed.Life and death changed, and a major reversal was achieved.How long has it been, that's amazing!Shino took a peek at the master, and said, "It's He Zifeng's credit..."

The master was in a bad mood: "This time he really took advantage of him!"
