Jia Min's Counterattack

Chapter 142 Measures

Hua Chong saluted Qian Zhengqin with a smile, and left Qian's mansion with a bank note in his arms.After he left, Qian Zhengqin sat silently on the chair behind the desk and was lost in thought. After a long time, he sighed: "Young people are awesome! I'm afraid the sky in the south of the Yangtze River is about to change!"

The next day, a notice was posted on the bulletin board at the gate of the yamen, explaining that within ten days, the landowners who did not apply for the red deed can apply for the red deed again if they bring the white deed to the yamen to make up for the tax they missed in the past. , but the full amount of tax must be paid on time in the future.As for the money that has been handed over to the government, after deducting the fines for evading taxes and the fees charged for the registration of red deeds by the government, the rest can be deducted from part of the tax that should be paid.

After the notice was posted, all the people in the city said: The new Lord Zhizhou is fair, and those silk merchants who have not applied for the red contract also think that this is fair, at least the land will not be forcibly taken back. The money paid was not in vain. As for the fines, not to mention the small amount, they dare not say anything even if there is more. After all, they are the ones who made mistakes and ignored them first!So three days later, those fields that hadn't applied for red deeds went to the yamen to re-register and apply for red deeds, even some ordinary people came to exchange their white deeds for red deeds.This is also thanks to the fact that Hua Chong played a big role in it. He told the people that the government will only recognize and protect the fields under their names if they go to the Yamen to apply for the red deed. For registration, as long as you take your household registration to the government to verify it, the government will issue a red deed again.

But among those who handled the red deeds, there was no Hua Chong's original owner, because their white deeds disappeared inexplicably, and they couldn't get the white deeds at all.I went to the yamen to find Mr. Zhang, but Mr. Zhang repeatedly said that he didn't have time to see them.Within two days, a batch of goods they had sold accidentally fell into the water during loading, and when they were picked up, they found that all the silks and satins were seriously faded. This is absolutely abnormal.So the owner of the goods found them and made a big fuss, and they lost a lot of money.Other merchants who bought goods from them also returned their goods one after another, and the government took back their fields. In less than half a month, the largest silk and satin factory in the south of the Yangtze River ceased to exist.The family had to leave their hometown and go to join relatives in Lingnan.However, perhaps it was God's retribution, when they crossed the Nanling Mountains, they encountered bandits in the mountains, and the whole family died.

Hua Chong knew from Lin Ruhai that he knew the news of his former boss's death, "The Skynet is fully restored, and it's not leaking! Before I wiped them out, they dug a hole and buried themselves!"

"Yes! You just found an idler and stole their white deed! Now the white deed in your hand has become a real ownerless thing, you can take it to the yamen and register it under your name. It can also be regarded as the family's compensation for you.!"

"Master! This is inappropriate! That's two thousand acres of land! I'm afraid I will bring unnecessary trouble to the master!"

"It's okay! Since I've agreed to you, there won't be any problems! I've already sent people to investigate, and the family members are dead, and the relatives in Lingnan they're going to defect to have long since passed away. There will be any troubles! After you get the red deed, just remember to destroy the white deed!"

Hua Chong did not refuse again, and soon went to the Yamen to complete the red deed.Hua Chong is already 50 years old, his wife and children were killed, and he has no plans to start a family again.Hua Chong has already made a decision that the two thousand mu of land registered under his name will be reserved for Lin Ruhai's son in the future.Lin Ruhai can think about him and let him have land to rely on for the elderly. He has no choice but to accept this kind of favor, but he will also spend the rest of his life to repay Lin Ruhai!Hua Chong is still a scholar in essence, with the nobility of a scholar, and the integrity of being willing to die for his confidant. Lin Ruhai conquered him in his own way, and he will also express his loyalty in his own way.

Even if the red deeds are completed, there are still a lot of unclaimed land in Suzhou, but most of them are not fertile land. There are mountainous lands with little output, and some low-lying lands that cannot be harvested at all.Lin Ruhai asked Hua Chong to check it on the spot, and then make arrangements.

In the old house of the Lin family, Jia Min was meeting Uncle Qiao and Li Zifeng, the shopkeepers of Xiangyun Silk and Satin.Xiangyun silk and satin shop is Jia Min's dowry. Before that, because the Jia family in Jinling led Jiangnan weaving errands, it was considered a relatively famous silk and satin shop in Jiangnan area. Uncle Qiao has also worked in Xiangyun silk and satin shop for nearly 20 years. It is conscientious.When choosing a dowry shop for Jia Min, the Xiangyun silk and satin shop had an annual income of 4 to [-] taels of silver, so my mother did not agree to give it to Jia Min.And Jia Daishan considered the ancestral home of the silk and satin village in the Lin family, and Uncle Qiao was a loyal and capable person, so he insisted on giving it to Jia Min.

"Zifeng has been here for less than half a year, how is it, is he still used to living in Suzhou?" Jia Min said through the screen.

"Back to the wife! The servant is doing well here! Uncle Qiao takes good care of the servant, and the servant has learned a lot from it."

"You should thank Uncle Qiao very much! Uncle Qiao is a busy man, he can spare time to teach you, so you can be regarded as a talent."

"My wife said that. Zifeng is indeed a rare and good seedling, but he is much better than the old slave when he was young! Presumably in the future, he will definitely be more important to his wife than the old slave." Uncle Qiao said about Li Zifeng He also kept wiping his beard with a smile.

Of course Jia Min knows that Li Zifeng is a man with a natural business mind. Just seeing that he is only 17 years old and can help his grandfather and make a small hot spring village flourish, one can imagine that as long as he is given a chance , he will definitely be able to make a career on his own.

"Uncle Qiao, to be honest, I plan to let Zifeng work hard alone. Do you think he is ready now?"

Uncle Qiao thought about it seriously and said, "I don't know what kind of job my wife wants him to do?"

"To tell you the truth, Uncle Qiao, I sent Zifeng to Suzhou. One is to let him learn some skills from you, and the other is to let him have a good understanding of the inside ways in the silk and satin village. I have a friend on Jiuhua Street in Beijing. A shop, I want to find some good Xiuniangs from Suzhou, let Zifeng take them there, and open an embroidery workshop in the capital, specializing in Suzhou embroidery, of course the fabrics must come from our silk and satin factory."

"The old slave has been in the south of the Yangtze River for 20 years, and I really don't know the preferences of the people in the capital. Is it possible for my wife to sell Suzhou embroidery to the capital?"
