Chapter 152 Admonition

When Xiao Tianjian hugged Fan Yutong at night, after a lot of cloud rain, he comfortably held Fan Yutong's DONG body and lay in **. Fan Yutong touched several new scars on Xiao Tian's fitness. He was so sad that he just wanted to cry and complained that Xiao Tianjian was too careless!

So Xiao Tianjian told Fan Yutong about his injury. When he heard that Zuo Liangyu used women and children as meat shields to resist the Xingtian army's siege, Fan Yutong couldn't help cursing angrily: "This Zuo Liangyu really deserves to die!"

"Yes! This guy can really be called a hero! Unfortunately, I was unlucky and met me! Now this one has been crushed by me, and I can't even find a skeleton! It's also a blood revenge for those people! In the future, there will be another cruel man in the world!" Xiao Tianjian answered lazily, while lingered on Fan Yutong's delicate body with his hands.

After a while, Xiao Tianjian felt that his vigorous wind had been revived, so he turned over and pressed on Fan Yutong's DONG body again. Fan Yutong was shocked and shouted repeatedly, "I can't become a husband. I can't stand it just now!" The cheap concubine knew that her husband had been depressed for a long time, but the cheap concubine was really unable to bear it! Otherwise, my husband will go to Die'er or Ling'er! I won't be jealous!"

Xiao Tianjian laughed loudly, kissed Fan Yutong's face lovingly, and said with a smile, "I'm going to waste today. Why should I go to them? If you don't want it, then call them..."

Date this night, Xiao Tianjian tossed and dispersed with the women in the middle of the night. Lying between them, Xiao Tianjian couldn't help sighing, "No wonder some people don't think about business. It seems that even I have the potential to be a fool!" Haha..."

Although Xiao Tianjian enjoys the life of going home very much, this kind of life is destined to be impossible before he has unified the world. That is to say, after a night, he was pulled out of the beauty early before dawn. Although tomorrow is the first day of the Chinese New Year, considering that it is still At a special time, Xing Tianjun had no precedent for a holiday break, so he got up and dressed neatly under the service of Fan Yutong and Die'er. After a simple breakfast, he went out of the house and came to the original Luoyang magistrate's office. At present, it is already the government center of Xing Tianjun. Niu Jinxing and other civil servants work here. .

When Xiao Tianjian came to the government office, he found that he did not come very early. Many civil servants such as Niu Jinxing had arrived earlier than him and had begun to work here.

Officials from all over Henan will send people to send Chen Tiao to Luoyang, and then Niu Jinxing and others will deal with it here. On the whole, Xing Tianjun has not established a complex government system at present, and all kinds of things are handled much faster. Moreover, in the Xing Tianjun, there is no infighting, but compared with the court. Over there, the situation is much better, so there is basically no situation of one person working and a group of people picking up. Whoever makes a little achievement will immediately attract everyone to besiege and know how to get you down. Therefore, the overall speed of handling all kinds of affairs of Xing Tianjun is very fast, which is also the advantage that Xiao Tianjian has at present. Potential.

This time, with Xiao Tianjian's return to Luoyang City, all the original plans were disrupted, so Niu Jinxing and others did not dare to slack off and worked overtime all night.

Seeing such a situation, Xiao Tianjian was much more relieved. While waving his hand to let the officials continue to be busy with them, he walked into the lobby, and the lobby here was not the same as before. There was only a big case, only one official sitting behind the big case to work, but there was a charcoal basin for heating in the lobby. There are many desks around, and many people work together here, which is a little like a later office. Many things can be discussed and a decision can be made immediately. As soon as they saw Xiao Tianjian coming here so early, Niu Jinxing and others quickly stood up and bowed like Xiao Tianjian.

"Exemption! You seem to be very dedicated and very hard! It's still a little too cold here. Let's have more charcoal pots! Everyone, sit down! I'm just here to find out about the recent situation in Henan!" Xiao Tianjian sat in the position of Niu Jinxing in the middle under the humility of Niu Jinxing.

"At present, it can be said that in Henan, except for some of the few mountainous areas in the west that are not fully included in our jurisdiction, most of the land in the central and eastern regions has been included in our jurisdiction! At present, every county and even a township has sent our people to be responsible for the affairs of these places!

Last month, the number of households in Henan was counted. Judging from the figures collected from various places, the population in various places has recovered a lot compared with that before last year. Many of them fled to Henan from the Jingfu area from last year to now, and there are also households that have moved to Henan from Huguang, Nanzhili, Shandong and other places. Now it is also basically It has been placed in the place!

Therefore, the growth of households is relatively fast. In this way, the speed of land recovery in various places is also very fast. By autumn, about 70% of the cultivated fields have been restored in various places. Of course, it is estimated that about half of the fields harvest grain in summer and autumn. Although it is not possible to feed everyone now, they are starving to death. What's more, this winter is much better than last winter. Especially after the beginning of winter, Huguang imported a large amount of rice into all parts of Henan, and all over the country has also been distributed. This winter, at least there is a situation of starvation in Henan, which is expected to be eliminated!

In addition, some grain is also stored in various places, which are allocated to the logistics department of the army. It is used as a reserve for the army. At present, it is uniformly allocated by Luo Bin, ready to meet the needs of time!

In addition, in the first half of this year, there were many rebellions in various places. Under the suppression of garrison officials in various places, there has basically been much less in the second half of the year, and the original local thieves in various places have also been wiped out in large numbers under the attack of General Liu and others. The local thieves either settled and farmed or killed them. There are also some people who are not guilty of death, and they are sent to the coal mine or the iron mine to work hard! Therefore, the place is much more peaceful at present, and the lives of the people are at least much more stable!

This is also all thanks to the Lord. If it weren't for the Lord, I don't know how much more people will be reduced in Henan this year! Most of the people in various places are grateful to the lord. When it is time to pay for food, they basically don't need local officials and bailiffs to supervise anything, and the people hand in the grain that should be handed in! After all, compared with the people under the jurisdiction of the imperial government in those years, the people now pay for the grain, but only about 20,000 of the grain that the government had to collect before. After the people paid the grain, at least there was still enough food to live!

is just some squire, and I'm a little unhappy. Nowadays, as long as it is under the jurisdiction of our Xingtian Army, it is not divided into three, six or nine, etc., it is taxed according to the mu of the field, and the fields are re- measured and registered and registered in various places. In this way, no one can go to pay grain tax! After all, these people used to pay very little taxes, and even some people don't have to pay any taxes to the government because they are officials in their families. Now they have to pay taxes to us on time. They are somewhat unhappy, but they dare not say no at present. As long as they come to the door to urge them, they will still pay it obediently! Ha ha!

In addition, according to the master's instructions, the tenants of those landlords have been forcibly reduced to less than three buckets per mu of land. Bo Tian is only allowed to collect one bucket of grain. In this way, after paying taxes, they obviously leave less than before, so it is understandable to complain! But as time goes by, you will get used to it! On the contrary, the life of the tenants is much better! Basically, after paying the tenant rent, there is still enough food to live!

As for the merchants, commercial taxes have been set up in various places at present, and more than 200,000 taels of silver have been collected this year. Although it is still rare, after all, it has just begun, and there will be more in the future! The merchants are full of complaints about this, but there is nothing they can do! ..." Niu Jinxing quickly introduced some of the civil affairs in Henan this year to Xiao Tianjian!

After hearing this, Xiao Tianjian nodded and said, "Not bad! You people have been doing a lot of work this year! As for taxes, I am the principle. I don't mind that there are more fields, but as long as you enjoy the protection of Laozi in the jurisdiction of Laozi, no matter who is, there is an obligation to pay taxes! Otherwise, what should I take to raise soldiers?

What's more, they live on Laozi's territory. I suppress bandits and people, so that they can do what they should do in peace. They don't have to worry all day long. They also have to spend money to buy their own guys and armed Zhuangding Xiangyong, which also saves them a lot of heart and also saves a lot of money! It is also reasonable for them to give us the money they saved! This is called fairness! In this world, even if I have a field in the future, I will have to pay taxes. This will never change!

Until one day, we are really developed. After the industry and commerce are developed, the country no longer needs to rely on agricultural taxes to support the country. The taxes collected by industry and commerce alone can support the country. At that time, the people will no longer pay grain taxes! Even give them money for growing grain!

As for those who do business, it is even more reasonable to pay taxes. The way they go and the safety of their merchants have to be borne by the state. Where does this money come from? So they should pay taxes! This is the reason why the Ming Dynasty has increased the amount of money every year, and now makes the world so miserable for the people! The merchants colluded with the officials. The officials prevented the court from collecting taxes on the merchants. In fact, they were secretly protecting their personal interests. In Laozi's jurisdiction, including Laozi's father-in-law, as long as they do business in our jurisdiction, it is natural to pay commercial tax!

As you know, Laozi's father-in-law is very unhappy, but he can't be unhappy. As long as there is a precedent, he can't block this in the future! No matter who you are, you have responsibilities and obligations to the country! We can't put the burden on those flat-headed people, otherwise sooner or later, we will follow in the footsteps of the Ming court! You should remember this clearly, and keep it in mind! Never forget it!

When I take the world one day, I will not learn from the stingy of the imperial court. For you people, I will raise your salaries! You can do things safely and steadily, and you can support your family without effort. You don't have to worry about supporting your own subordinates. The salaries of all kinds of officials are also paid by the state! Anyway, you can live a decent and comfortable life!

But I also have one requirement, that is, integrity! I, Xiao Tianjian, rebelled against the corruption of the current imperial government. Xiao hated corrupt officials the most in his life. Under my rule, the existence of corrupt officials is never allowed. I can give you a high salary, but if anyone reaches out to get a penny that does not belong to yours, then don't blame me for turning against Xiao and doesn't recognize anyone. ! If it's easy, you can be exiled to mine! If it's serious, that's the matter of losing your head! I am very appreciative of Ming Taizu's method of skinning corrupt officials. If someone annoys me because of greed one day, I don't mind using this method to deal with such people!

You can write down what I said today. If you do a good job, it is possible for anyone to be promoted to Guangzong Yaozu! Xiao will never treat those good officials badly, but he will never let go of those mediocre and corrupt officials!" After saying that, Xiao Tianjian paused and glanced at the faces of the officials in the hall.

The officials in the lobby were creepy and shivered in their hearts. During this period, they also found one thing, that is, although Xiao Tianjian led troops to fight in Huguang, he seemed to have a pair of eyes staring at them. He sent people back orders many times and took some tampered and feet everywhere. Officials who are unclean or use power for personal gain have been dismissed and investigated. For this reason, dozens of such officials have been killed. On the one hand, Xiao Tianjian has enough means to monitor officials from all over the world, and at the same time, he will never show mercy to corrupt officials. This is enough for everyone to take warning, so everyone quickly got up and respond.

But Xiao Tianjian also revealed a message, that is, as an official in Xing Tianjun, his future is very bright. At least the salary is enough to support the family, so that their families can live a decent life. At the same time, they don't have to worry about the salaries of the officials under the government should be raised by themselves. If there is no such pressure. If you think about it, it's really not cost-effective to lose your head and hurt your family in order to make a few money. If so, then greed seems to be worth it!

(The old computer has finally ended its historical mission. Over the years, Han Feng has written more than 10 million words of novels with that old guy. Now it has finally retired gloriously. It's really a little reluctant! It's decided! Don't sell it, don't throw it away, collect it as a souvenir! After all, it has contributed a lot for me! You can't just remove the grind and kill the donkey like this! Ha ha! I got a new computer today. It's really good to use. It just took a little time, but I still got the manuscript! Today, I thank the three brothers for the reward of Spicy Death, feng41501 and smoky fire!)
