"Huchi~huchi~" The old Dongcun clan member groaned and breathed heavily.

"Rebellion! Rebellious! You've rebelled against you too!" the clan elder scolded, but Zhang Xiu Niang said nothing or consoled her. She just patted the clan elder on the back.

Liu Cang was silent and didn't speak. What did he say? What's the point of arguing with an old man? If you raise your voice louder, call the young people in your village and see if I don't unload it for you.

"What are you shooting for! Come here!" Ignoring the Dongcun clan elder, Liu Cang said fiercely to Zhang Xiuniang, who was patting the clan elder on the back.

Behind the clan leader's back, Zhang Xiu Niang glanced at Liu Cang and walked back to Liu Cang's side honestly.

"Hello... hello, hello~! Cough, cough..." Zhang Xiu Niang left. The clan leader was slightly stunned. Then he became even more angry and pointed at Liu Cang with trembling fingers.

Ma De, Liu Cang feels a little guilty. This old guy won't let go of his anger, right? How about, Xiu Niang, you should continue to pat him?

Taking Liu Cang's hint, Zhang Xiu Niang did not complain about Liu Cang's back and forth instructions. She returned to the clan elder again and helped him sit down.

Liu Cang looked at the angry old man and thought that this guy was just a fool.

The arrogant expression gradually faded away, and it seemed a bit unjustifiable that he came to the village to pick up his wife, but ended up putting the family elder to bed.

"Elder of the clan, can we talk nicely?" Zhang Xiu Niang stood by Liu Cang in everything, while the elder of the clan seemed to be weak in every way.

Seeing Liu Cang's tone slow down, the elder thought that Zhang Xiu Niang had said something to Liu Cang. He raised his eyes and looked at Zhang Xiu Niang, and nodded lightly to Zhang Xiu Niang with satisfaction.

"What? Are you scared?" While breathing, the clan elder said to Liu Cang angrily.

"Afraid? You call the young people in the village and count them one by one. Do you think they are afraid of white or red!" Liu Cang grinned.

"What...what are you talking about?" Seeing Liu Cang sitting across from him, and looking at Liu Cang's attitude, the clan elder felt a toothache. This merciless boy is really difficult to deal with.

To say that the Dongcun clan elder's idea of ​​setting up a banquet for three days was really just a trial. After all, how could a boy who was valued by Cai Yong be so easy to fool?

It's just that the Dongcun clan elder didn't expect Liu Cang's reaction to be so violent.

What Liu Cang is famous for in the village is not his hot temper. He is well-established at a young age, has a lot of strength, and is good at work. This is what the surrounding villagers know most about Liu Cang.

Now that the test failed, he almost overturned the table. Seeing that Liu Cang had given him a step and was about to rebound as soon as he tried it, the Dongcun clan simply stopped messing around with a dark face.

Anyway, for a girl who can't get married, being able to get married to Dongcun in exchange for Liu Cang is already a profit.

"Elder of the clan, if you want to hold a banquet, I will raise some money and food here. The location must be set up in Mulberry Village, and the embroiderer will not lose face. It will not work for three days." Seeing that the clan elder was no longer irritable, Liu Cang pressed hard.

Xingzi, said to the clan elder.

There is no way, who made Zhang Xiu Niang's father abscond with the money? Now the patriarch of the clan cannot offend him to death, otherwise Zhang Xiu Niang will have to be stabbed in the back in the future.

"No, Xiu Niang doesn't want to make any noise, and don't want to tarnish her reputation." The clan elder had not expressed his position yet, so Zhang Xiu Niang spoke anxiously.

"..." Liu Cang was silent and glared at Zhang Xiu Niang, but she received a gentle smile in return.

"..." The clan elder also turned around and glared at Zhang Xiu Niang, hating her for not arguing, but in the end he said nothing.

"Elder of the clan, please don't deceive me when I'm young. Xiu Niang is no longer from your East Village. Her father is still here. If I take her in, it won't be a problem for you or not." After a moment of silence, Liu Cang stopped talking.

After exchanging glances with Zhang Xiu Niang, she said to the elder of the Dongcun clan.

"Who said Xiu Niang is not my East Village child? She will be my East Village child when she returns home. If you dare to bully her, even with the Cai family protecting her, the East Village men will not be able to spare you."

solemnly.

Liu Cang remained silent and did not talk to the old man. If you hadn't had the same tricks as before, we would have believed you.

"You have a good talent, I won't beat around the bush with you, and don't care about anything else. Now that you have welcomed my East Village girl, you can't just help Lou Sang bully my East Village in the future." As if he was powerless, the clan elder showed a slight expression.

Old and quite weak.

Liu Cang was speechless, your face changed...

Don't you want to beat around the bush? You don't want to beat around the bush, you just want to give yourself a big elbow.

"Don't worry, elder, as long as the East Village doesn't cause trouble, I won't be at odds with my neighbors." Liu Cang responded.

The clan elder nodded and secretly said to himself that the boy was being cautious and that he was on guard today, but there was no need to entangle him any more.

"That's good. I'm tired today, and I have to suffer from your junior's idleness, so I treat the embroiderer badly, so I left." After the clan elder said that, he stood up, looking very old and desolate.

"Come on, elder, I have something to discuss with the elder."

"Huh? What's the matter?" Liu Cang unexpectedly called him, and the clan elder stopped, seemingly interested.

"Qianmen'er Dongshan belongs to the land of two villages. I want to farm in the Dongshan enclosure, but I need to discuss it with the clan elder." Liu Cang said to the clan elder.

"Dongshan? What do you want with that rocky mountain? If you want to reclaim wasteland, there are still some beaches behind our village. Although there are gravels, the terrain is gentle." The clan elder frowned.

"We have to clear up wasteland, but we just plan to use grass to raise some livestock. If there is no one to clear up wasteland, we will also want to sow grass seeds on the rocky land on the side of the mountain." Liu Cang explained.

"Oh, I forgot that you are good at raising animals, but a few animals are enough. It's not that simple if you have more." The clan leader was serious, and his face looked more simple and less shrewd at this time.

"Well, I have an idea." Liu Cang nodded.

"If you want, you can fence it yourself. There is no shortage of firewood in our village, but Dongshan has half as many buildings as your Lousang, but I can't control it." The clan elder said. Seeing that Liu Cang was full of confidence, he stopped.

Talk too much.

"I've said something ugly earlier. If you are farming in captivity in Dongshan, I will definitely restrain the villagers and not cause trouble. But if salt and iron deposits are discovered in Dongshan, you will not be counted." After thinking for a moment, the clan elder spoke again.

"Of course at that time, I didn't dare to take advantage of the village here." Liu Cang nodded.

If a salt-iron vein is discovered, it will naturally not belong to the village. However, the village can receive a large amount of rewards and even a share. The villagers share their own things, and even the owner of the fief cannot eat them all.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Dongshan is not a big mountain. It is a solitary mountain, two to three hundred meters high, covering an area of ​​ten hectares. Villagers occasionally go up the mountain to sweep away small animals such as rabbits and foxes.

No rare objects were found, this is just the elders being cautious.

Liu Cang secretly laughed, this old scheming family spared no effort and used all their tricks. When it came to practical matters, they were quite serious and rigorous.

"I don't need to talk more about taxes, right?" Seeing that Liu Cang understood, the clan elder continued to ask.

"You know, two villages and one half of the village, okay?" Liu Cang asked, no longer arrogant at this time.

The clan elder observed Liu Cang and saw the change in his temperament. He was amazed and felt inexplicably happy. Considering that he was a descendant of the Liu family, he felt a little unlucky.

"One village has half. If someone from the county comes to stir up trouble, whichever village can help you cause trouble will get more." The clan elder continued.

Taxes are inevitable at all times. There is agricultural tax for farming, business tax for doing business, adult corvee is also a type of tax, and there is also tax for breeding.

If there is no official investigation, Liu Cang hides in the mountains and raises some animals, and there is no one to count, so he will not have to pay taxes.

Unfortunately, the clan elders in the village also had the responsibility of collecting tax statistics, but what the two people were talking about at this time was that Liu Cang paid part of the taxes according to the village's rules, and the clan elders collected taxes to offset the agricultural taxes and miscellaneous taxes that needed to be paid in the village.

The tax at this time can be money, food, or meat. There are many conversions between things. Generally speaking, anything of value can be treated as a tax, and food is the most intuitive and common.

The land tax of the Eastern Han Dynasty was 30 to 1 tax, which was an absolute low in history. However, the miscellaneous taxes in the late Han Dynasty also left the people with less money.

Almost no one dares to fake the taxation of land and food, and the clan elders will naturally cover up other industries in the village. Covering this part can share the food tax and miscellaneous taxes such as poll tax, allowing the villagers to retain more

With more food, the village will naturally become richer.

As for the counties and counties sending people to stir up trouble, the government would come down to check the actual properties and set tax standards.

And think about what the clan elders said about debauchery, everyone understands it, right?

"Elders of the clan, my fathers are Cai Yong and Cai Bozhe." Facing the ugly words the clan elders said in front of him, Liu Cang said rather shyly.

"..." The clan elder was silent, MMP, if he wasn't afraid of being killed by Liu Cang, he really wanted to give him a punch.
