Chapter 18 She's going to open a house

They entered the gate and saw two men in their fifties and sixties sitting in the middle of the two main seats, with square faces and majestic kindness. Two beautiful women sat under the right hand of the man, one of whom was a little older,

The skin is slightly plump, the round face is quite festive; the young oval face is gentle and dignified. The lower part of the left hand is empty. Aunt Zhang salutes and says to the people in the room: "Master, second master, eldest wife, second wife, Chen

The girl is here." The four people in the room nodded.

Aunt Zhang introduced Chen Fan one by one, and Chen Fan saluted them and called her. Then, she was led down below her left hand, and Aunt Zhang sat next to her. A maid came up to serve tea, and Chen Fan said

Thank you, the maid paused and said she didn't need to thank her and then stepped down.

The formation in the room was very large, and Chen Fan sat very well.

Liu Jinghui spoke first: "The Liu family is a farmer and businessman, so we can speak casually. Today, when there was movement at the city gate, a group of gangs broke into the counter, killed the shopkeeper and a few friends, and

A few boxes of money were loaded into the carriage. When Twelve brought people over, the bandit leader also came with them. Thanks to the girl who helped me, my Liu family would be greatly damaged."

"Mr. Liu has been awarded the award, but I just tried my best. Mr. Liu and the others are fighting hard, so I admire them very much."

Liu Jinghui smiled slightly: "Twelve performed well today, and the guys are also loyal to the Liu family. If there weren't a girl, it would be difficult for them to escape unscathed. We should thank the girl again."

Chen Fan even said he didn't have to be polite. She felt a little unbearable. How many rounds would he have to deal with?

The cabinet shop mentioned by Master Liu is probably the predecessor of the money shop, which was found in the Tang Dynasty. This kind of cabinet shop is used to store money for others, without paying interest, and also charge storage fees.

The eldest wife asked Chen Fan: "Miss is so young and has such a strong martial arts. Master must be a master. Where can the girl live?"

Chen Fan answered truthfully: "My home is far away, I have no brothers and sisters, my parents are just a child. I have been practicing martial arts with my master since I was a child. My parents and my master are both... in another world. I am wandering with the refugees.

When I got here, I had no household registration or identity, and there were no relatives here."

What she needs most now is household registration. People who are the masters of the family are sitting here. If you don’t talk about it at this time, when will you wait? If the Liu family is willing to help, their connections and ability to do things will be better than her. If you don’t help, it will be her must.

The reality of acceptance. If she accepts other thanks from the Liu family and asks them to help with household registration later, it would seem that she will be able to repay the situation with gratitude.

Everyone looked at her and showed a look of sympathy.

The second wife asked her: "Will the girl continue to walk around the world with her sword in the future, or do she want to settle down?"

Chen Fan replied: "I want to settle down and farm." Farming can make you live in food and clothing, and you can build a house and have a fixed place to settle down in the countryside.

The two masters looked at each other and nodded.

Liu Jinghui said: "My Liu family will arrange the registration and land, as well as building a house for the girl to express her gratitude. However, the girl was taken care of by her parents and masters in the past, and it may be very hard to support a single household in the future."

Chen Fan smiled and said, "Thank you Mr. Liu for your help. I have been farming with my parents since I was a child. As long as I have land, I can still live."

Liu Jinghui said: "First of all, let me tell the girl about establishing a household registration. Men and women over 16 years old are the regular ones, 12 years old to 15 years old, 61 to 65 years old are the second-generation men. The girl looked at the eleventh and two years old.

I look three years old, twelve years old? I can only establish a household at the age of twelve. This is something I have to explain to the girl.”

"I'm not twelve years old, I'm eighteen." Chen Fan really wanted to say that.

Does she look so childish now? Did she not hide her childishness when she had blood in a fight yesterday?

She thought about it and said that she was twelve years old. She was twelve years old at the age of twelve. Children were more likely to attract more pain and did not have to bear questions like why they were not married yet at the age of 18.

"At this age, you can build a household. My Qingzhou is relatively rich, and the fields near the county town are basically full of people. If a girl wants to buy land, she may have to settle in a place far away from the county town. The girl may not have handled tax payments before.

, I must explain the tax system to the girl. Our dynasty currently implements the two tax laws, regardless of local households or outside households. The girl settles down at this time and is just included in the household registration here and pays taxes here."

Mr. Liu first talked to her about establishing a household and taxation matters. This is not a chat, but more like a meeting with the head of the family. This time he was a guest, so formal and solemn, and Chen Fan corrected it.

She is going to open a house, start paying taxes, and shouldering the burden of life.

"In June, the household tax was paid, half of the child was paid, two pieces of silk, and one pound of hemp. In November, the land tax was paid, and the land tax was distributed evenly according to how many people occupied the land in a region. Our Yuanfeng County has a large population, and each acre is per mu.

Just hand in handing over two dou of rice." Liu Jinghui told her the specific number.

She could buy and hand over two pieces of silk and one pound of hemp, but according to some ancient data, two pieces of silk are equivalent to millet with more than three stones, or wheat with slightly less three stones. These two pieces of silk and one pound of hemp are very heavy.

It's a burden.

As for the two dou of rice, if one stone here is equivalent to one hundred and twenty kilograms, ten dou one stone, ten liters and one dou, then two dou is more than twenty kilograms. It doesn’t sound like a lot, but the grain output in ancient times was low, one acre of medium

The fields only harvest one stone of grain? Good fields usually harvest two or three stones, while one acre of land is considered a high yield. If you buy acre of wasteland, you still have less than fifty or sixty kilograms, and you won’t have much food in a year.

Chen Fan felt it was too difficult in an instant.

Yuanfeng County is quite large in population and has less land tax. If the land is large and sparsely populated, it is not enough for the people to plant a mu of land? No wonder those farmers work hard all year round but still can't eat enough,

"The morning waves are grassroots, and the evening food still has wood vultures." If you encounter a natural disaster, you can only escape from famine.

She asked Mr. Liu: "If the fields are planted with wheat or other crops, will they also pay rice? Do I also have to pay taxes when the fields are fallow?"

"It is also a rice meal. No matter what is planted in the field, it is a rice meal. It is also a rice meal when it fallow."

Chen Fan nodded. She felt it was even more difficult.
