I really don't want to be a rebel [infrastructure]

Luo Shixing asked a little strangely: "Who told you that the tax will be raised?"

Wang Antong tilted his head and said, "I've heard many people say that."

Luo Shixing immediately sent someone to investigate, only to find out that the news came from another county.

Luo Shixing was willing to use the money from the county government treasury to subsidize it, but others were unwilling, not to mention that those county magistrates were just about to show themselves, so they might just go back and spread the news.

Nowadays, there are not many transactions between Beidai County and its surrounding areas, and the news that the state capital will increase taxes has spread.

Luo Shixing patted his forehead and said, "I actually forgot about this matter. Well, I will tell you to send someone to give a lecture later, and tell everyone that there will be no tax increase in Beidai County, so that everyone can live with peace of mind."

After he finished speaking, he didn't pay attention to this matter anymore. Originally, he didn't want to waste his energy on this kind of matter, and the simpler the better at this time, the more he talked, the more rumors might spread.

After Cheng Jingwei learned about it, he called Wang Antong over and said, "Send some people to find a way to spread these words."

While talking, he handed Wang Antong a document. Wang Antong took it and found that it was to increase the state capital tax, but the county magistrate paid for the tax from his own pocket for everyone to live and work in peace, and did not increase everyone's tax.

Confused, he asked, "Why don't you preach together?"

Cheng Jingwei glanced at him and said, "This kind of thing can't be said in the open, otherwise it's disobedience?"

The front foot promised that the governor would definitely increase the tax, but the back foot told everyone that there would be no increase. Although the same amount would be paid at that time, isn't this a violation of the law?

What's more, after this matter is done, it is the governor who will be scolded, and the prestige of Beidai county magistrate will definitely increase. Even not only the governor will be scolded, but other county magistrates will also be scolded.

This hatred is enough, but how can you do good deeds without leaving your name?

Little Lynx doesn't care about these false names, he is still unwilling, so it is best to release the news secretly, and if the governor is held accountable at that time, Little Lynx can still deny it.

Anyway, the amount of tax they paid was correct. Does the governor still care how they collect taxes?

Facts have proved that if it is really a preaching, and you hype how much you think about the people, it is very likely that everyone will forget it after hearing it, and will not remember it.

And the more so-called "gossip" appears, no one has refuted the rumors, and the news that everyone hears is different, but in the final analysis, it is more likely to be believed.

So the people's family began to pray that their little county magistrate could stay in Beidai County for a long time.

As a result, some people even put up a statue of Luo Shixing at home and began to worship.

Fortunately, this time it is not the image of the cat god, but a serious portrait.

When Luo Shixing found out, he felt a little bad all over, and couldn't help but ask, "Are they going to heaven? Is belief so casual?"

Didn't it mean that the tribal god worship in Lingnan is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the belief is very pious?How to change at every turn?

Ale really smiled and said: "It hasn't changed, you are the high priest, the god of fire, the god of fire, and worshiping you is the same."

Luo Shixing: ...

Good guy, he almost forgot about his identity.

So... this issue of belief cannot be interfered with, because the common people have found logic for their own belief system, and Luo Shixing is also a little drunk.

In the end, he simply ignored it, because he had encountered something more important—Sheng Luo's leading soldiers fled to Beidai County!

To be honest, because of one Liu Yanyou and one tax recently, these two things made Luo Shixing almost forget the Mengshe Zhao and the Bing Sui Zhao.

Anyway, Luo Sheng was also handed over to the imperial court by him. As for how the imperial court handles it, that is the matter of the imperial court, and this matter has nothing to do with him.

The imperial court did help Luo Sheng, and arranged for soldiers to escort Luo Sheng back to the country.

Sheng Luopi originally wanted to deny that it was Luo Sheng, but Datang admitted that it was useless for him to deny.

If he hadn't sent someone to intercept and kill Luo Sheng at the beginning, there would still be room for maneuver at this time, but unfortunately there is no medicine for regret in this world.

After the incident was exposed, many people below immediately turned to Luo Sheng.

They were originally brought up by Luo Sheng. Although Sheng Luopi is the heir, but his wings are still fledgling, and there are not many people under his command. It can be seen from the fact that Luo Sheng still used his own people to intercept and kill Luo Sheng, so that Luo Sheng discovered them. He really doesn't have many people under him.

If Luo Sheng passed away, it would be natural for Sheng Luo Pi to succeed him, then they would naturally be loyal to Sheng Luo Pi. Now that Luo Sheng is still alive, and Sheng Luo Pi has done such a treasonous thing, these people will naturally not accept him.

Sheng Luopi saw that the general situation was over, and it was already difficult for him to dispatch troops without the Tang army coming in, so he simply took his own people to pack up the gold and silver and fled directly.

There are only two directions to escape, one is Tubo, and the other is Lingnan.

After serious thinking, he gave up the direction of Tubo.

What Tubo needs is the king of Mengshezhao, and they don't care who this king is.

Luo Sheng was already close to Tubo before, and now he is relatively strong, so there is no need for the other party to intervene in Mengshezhao's internal affairs.

But Beidai County is not the case. It is not easy to be found if you hide in the deep mountains and old forests. Is it too long for people to enter the land of the Tang Dynasty?

It's just that Sheng Luopi didn't know the current situation in Beidai County. When Luo Sheng came to investigate, he asked the son to supervise the country, so Sheng Luopi didn't come.

In his impression, Beidai County is still sparsely populated, poor and backward, and such a place is naturally not so strict about the border defense line.

However, today's Beidai County is different from before, so he brought his hundreds of people into the sphere of influence of Beidai County when he was caught by patrol soldiers guarding the border.

After a battle, almost all of Sheng Luopi's people were wiped out, and the others were naturally arrested as well.

When Luo Shixing heard the number of casualties reported below, he almost flipped the table: "Is there no end to their father and son? Do you think we are easy to bully?"

Believe it or not, he was in a hurry and he sent troops to fight the Mengshe Zhao?

Of course, such words mean more casualties, but now this battle is inexplicable. In such a large place, it is not only Beidai County that borders Mengshezhao. Why are you targeting us?

Picking up honest people to bully, right?

Luo Shixing simply asked someone to press Sheng Luopi into the prison, um, the same room where Luo Sheng was imprisoned.

I don't know if this is a different kind of son inheriting his father's career.

In addition, he has to report this matter. He really doesn't want to hear the words Meng Shezhao now, nor do he want to see the words Luo and Sheng!

The custom of linking the names of father and son in Liuzhao is quite good, at least it prevents Luo Shixing from having a physical aversion to the five characters all at once.

The so-called joint father and son names generally mean that the last letter of the father's name is the first letter of the son's name.

Luo Shixing wrote a letter to Liu Yanyou cursingly, and asked while writing, "Do you think this counts as military merit?"

"Forget it, why not? If Sheng Luopi didn't escape, catching him would be considered a great achievement." Cheng Jing said with a smile: "Maybe your lord can still mention it."

Luo Shixing stopped writing and said, "It doesn't matter. If Liu Yanyou is given this credit, do you think he will give up the tax increase?"

Official position and money...he chooses money, who wants to pay so much if he can pay less tax.

If it can really be taken from the people and used by the people, it’s okay. The problem is that who knows where these taxes will be used.

Liu Yanyou doesn't look like an upright official.

Cheng Jingwei said very disrespectfully: "Wake up, don't dream, it's already a matter of his face, no matter what happens, he will carry it out."

As the saying goes, there are three fires for a new official to take office. If he doesn't start the first fire, there is no need to burn the next fire, and no one will listen to him.

Therefore, even if Liu Yanyou knew that this decision was wrong, he would not change it easily.

After hearing this, Luo Shixing said angrily: "There is nothing that goes well."

Cheng Jingwei immediately put his arms around his shoulders and comforted him: "Don't worry, in less than a year, either he will leave by himself, or someone else will tell him to leave, this is all foreseeable."

Luo Shixing finished writing the letter sullenly and asked someone to take the letter and Sheng Luopi to Jiaozhou City together. Not only that, but also had to send the tax over by the way-there was no autumn for two years, and naturally it was not after the autumn harvest that taxes were collected, usually it was the rainy season Taxes started in the past.

This rainy season is almost like the rainy season in Luo Shixing's cognition. The rain that fell for four or five months can be counted on the fingers, because the previously planned land reclamation failed to proceed.

The water conservancy facilities on the wasteland have not kept up. How can we open up wasteland without water?

When the food was transported away, Luo Shixing lay on the window sill of his office and watched reluctantly, his lingering eyes made Cheng Jingwei almost jealous.

Cheng Jingwei couldn't help covering his eyes with his hand: "Don't look, it's not yours anymore."

It hurts, old man!

Luo Shixing almost cried out with a meow, his food, so much of his food was just sent away!

Luo Shixing was sad, but at this time Liu Yanyou was not having a good time in Jiaozhou. His order was carried on, and the county magistrates of various places were also working hard to implement it. For this reason, he even sent Feng Ziyou to take soldiers and horses to various counties for field inspections.

But the problem is that the common people really don't have that many things.

The bad weather for two consecutive years made everyone's life very difficult. Under such circumstances, even if they handed over all their family assets, they would not be able to pay taxes for two years.

Yes, Liu Yanyou not only wants this year's tax, but also the tax that was not collected last year because of the military disaster.

According to the normal logic, last year's tax is collected according to the previous tax policy, and this year's tax is collected according to the new policy.

However, I don't know what was going on in Liu Yanyou's mind, but he actually demanded that all be handed over according to the new policy.

In this way, even if you grit your teeth and work hard, you can still pay the tax, but you will not be able to pay it at all.

No matter how much the county magistrate tried to collect it, it was useless. Those county magistrates were not Luo Shixing. They didn't care about the lives of the people, so naturally they couldn't subsidize the tax with their own pockets.

Therefore, in these counties, people who could not survive often hanged themselves to death. In just a few months, the number of deaths was even higher than that of the original rebellion.

The county magistrates did not hide anything. If there are fewer people, there will be less taxes to be paid. They must be corrected by the state government in time, otherwise the amount of taxes will be wrong at that time, and they may cause trouble for them.

Liu Yanyou was indeed caught in a dilemma at this time. After hearing that Beidai County's taxes were paid, he went to see the grain put in the granary in person.

This ration can be said to have calmed his restless heart, Liu Yanyou nodded seriously and said: "Not to mention anything else, Luo Wujiu is indeed a capable official."

However, Luo Shixing and a tax can be regarded as indirectly strengthening Liu Yanyou's heart.

Beidai County is so poor that it can hand in, why can't other counties that are richer than Beidai County not hand in?

In addition, Sheng Luopi who was captured really surprised Liu Yanyou, no matter what, he was finally able to write a memorial to the court, so that the court would remember him as a man.

Liu Yanyou was very satisfied with Luo Shixing, and his satisfaction stated in the memorial that Sheng Luopi was captured by the magistrate of Beidai County.

Originally, there was no legend about Luo Shixing in Luoyang at this time, and everyone almost forgot about the county magistrate of Beidai County.

As a result, this memorial brought Luo Shixing back into everyone's field of vision.
