Ding Tian's Ancient Life

Chapter 58 Autumn Harvest Taxes

Master Ma's backyard continued to be lively, and the whole summer was just like that.

Mr. Xu, an official, is very happy, but during the autumn harvest, he started to get angry. The reason is that Mr. Ma, who is above him, is also eyeing the tax of the autumn harvest. This is a piece of fat, a big fat.

"Every county's annual performance appraisal is based on the three items of grain, mulberry, and ding." Ma County magistrate looked at the two masters: "It used to be exempt from taxation, but now it is re-collected. I want to see how it was before. Received?"

"Master, there was no war before, but now...it's different. Now there are only 350 households in the county. There were 960 households in the past, which is two-thirds less!" Mr. Qian said. as

Master Qian Liang, these materials have naturally been checked in advance: "The taxes paid, of course, cannot be based on the past."

"Oh?" County Magistrate Ma's eyes lit up: "Then, it's just as much as I say?" Master Qian choked, "Master, you just came, and as soon as you took office... that's not good, right?"

As a result, those who are not familiar with the place of life dare to search for oil and water wantonly, and the people under the rule may not accept it.

Secondly, the person above is no longer his relative, but the former county magistrate of this county, after all, he has such a relationship with the people of this county.

At this time, Master Qian realized the meaning of the Wanmin Umbrella that the three village chiefs gave to the prefect of Du.If it is not handled properly, they will have to sue. You must know that the people in this place are tough, and they dare to copy knives with foreigners during wars. What do you mean by a new county magistrate?

The officials are forcing the people to rebel!

At that time, they will be the unlucky ones.

When an egg hits a rock, the rock is fine, but the egg is broken.

"As soon as I took office, I found out that everyone else can make money, but I can't!" Magistrate Ma was furious: "Why do I become this official? Do you know? The money I brought was spent like running water, and I turned my head back a little bit." No money."

The wife of the family wants to buy a property locally. After the housekeeper who left the aftermath came back, she also brought a lot of things and money. She also looked at the local market, because the county has not yet been developed, and the land price is cheap now, so I bought it. After purchasing several good locations, I plan to set up a shop.

But at the moment, everyone is busy, and no one goes to the city to find work. Besides, summer is not suitable for building a house. The best time to build a house here is after the autumn harvest and before the frost. At that time, the climate is dry and the house is built. It also works fast.

The point is that this is all a plan, and it hasn't been put into action yet, but it's a lot of money.

Mr. Ma watched the money on the account book being spent like water, and felt sorry for his own money.

Feeling sorry for his own money, naturally, he thought about how to hug money.

Helplessly, even though Accountant Xu has become Master Xu, Master Xu is an iron cock. The county government is only so big, and there are only so many benefits. It's divided.

The new Mr. Ma also has a share, which is the biggest one. He eats half of the empty salary in the county government.

The point is, how much can a county government pay half of the salary?

Master Ma has a large family to support, and the money is simply not enough.

"Why don't you ask Mr. Xu?" They are all people with black eyes. At this time, they have to ask the seniors in the yamen. Book, two generations have worked in the yamen, so they must know very clearly.

"Look for him... and then he won't get a piece of the pie." Mrs. Ma is a very stingy person, and he knows about the matter of raising money. The more people involved, the more benefits he will share, and he will give it to the two masters He was not too happy about it, and now he had to give the new Master Xu a book, and he was even more unhappy.

"There is no other way. If we don't give him, we won't be able to play here." Although Master Qian was not reconciled, he knew that it was inevitable: "Dong Weng, it is impossible for us to abandon him. It's the local snake here." □Author's gossip: The competition will be held in June, so please ask for Zhizhi!
