Chapter 641 The truth of frivolity
The people of the three counties outside the door stretched their necks and looked up, pricked their ears and listened. They found that the county lord said such words. A burst of laughter suddenly came from the crowd. ●⌒, at this moment, everyone suddenly heard a harsh sound of gongs, followed by a full shout: "If this chaos cannot be calmed down, it is Xue County Zun who is going back on his word, changing his mind, being incompetent, and having the face to blame the sixth room of the county government office?"
Xue Chao was almost scolded by this sudden harsh scolding. However, there were too many people around the three floors inside and three floors outside the county government. He could not see where the person was talking was, and he could not find the right person if he wanted to scold him. But at this moment, he could only hear the person talking shouting loudly again.
"The illegal students such as Cheng Wenlie, Wuyuan County, incited the people to gather in Wuyuan County, and their words were confusing the public. Fortunately, Wuxian Zun rushed back in time, and the rioters in Wuyuan have scattered. And there were Xiuning County students Wu Dajiang and Ye Ting, who were under house arrest, fabricated emergency documents and sent them to Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Fujian and Guang, with ulterior motives. They also led the rioters to donate strong corpses. Now they have sent the rioters to the government office for the rioters who have woken up. The most rioters in Xiuning Wuyuan have all been calmed down, but you are still gathering people in the She County town to attack the county office and block the gate. This is a serious crime to be exiled from the army. Don't you think about your family?"
Xiuning, Wuyuan, was the two places that started to be in trouble, especially Xiuning was relatively close to the city, so the people of the other three counties were moved. Now facing this sudden news, the crowd suddenly became turbulent. Although some people were yelling that this was just a lie to coax people, many people believed it.
"She County has sent Xia Taxed Silk for 200 years. It has taxed 80,000 pieces of silk every year, and has sold more than 6,000 taels of silver. Even if it is no longer the She County has sent 100 to 100 taels of silver, it is equal to the other five counties. Each county will only bear hundreds to 100 taels of taels, and then sent down to each household in Dingkou. Maybe it is only a few dozen cents. For these dozens of cents, you will have to make trouble and cause trouble. You all think about whether it is worth it! If you return it, I, Wang Fulin, Songming Mountain, She County, here guarantee, will definitely encourage the matter of equalizing Xia Taxed Silk for one prefecture and six counties in Huizhou to make it public, just and fair. I urge the Yaofu Zun to declare the old files I had checked before. Everything is clear to the six counties!"
When the villagers gathered outside the She County Yamen heard the name Wang Fulin, they finally became really infuriated. Xue Chao, the magistrate of She County at the gate, felt a rushing back current to his mind, and he was really fainted. While Master Liu was shocked, he could only do his best to support the county magistrate who was strong outside and was a man next to him, and he complained secretly.
If Wang Fulin was really just a single person, and if he said this, hundreds of people from three counties might hesitate, but as he appeared, many strong men with sticks appeared under the archways at both ends of the county front street, which made many people who were interested in making troubled waters also became jealous of them.
What made them dare not act rashly was that Wang Fulin said loudly again: "The first one and others surrounded the She County Government. The people of She County were also full of righteous indignation, and did not confront each other. However, if this continues, there will be no peace in one and six counties in Huizhou! My promise is that Yaofuzun has already recognized it, and the people behind me are Cang Yong, who have recruited and trained for the She County Preparation Warehouse and Huizhou Rice Industry Guild General Warehouse over the years. If you are willing to learn about the mandarin duck formation of the Qi Family Army, you might as well give it a try! I count to ten, and after ten sounds, those who sit on the ground will be exempted from punishment, and those who resist will never let go of it!"
"one!"
"two!"
As the sound of the call came, the villagers knelt or sat down. Only a few people stood there stubbornly. But when the last ten exits were heard, they saw that under the archways on both sides of the front street of the county, the strong men seemed to be extremely well-trained and suddenly became weak. With the last few people, they fell to the ground. There was no one standing upright in the huge open space in front of the eight-character wall in front of the county government.
Faced with this scene, one hour ago, Yao Fuzun was asked to perform a play at the government office. Yao Fuzun announced in public that the Xiuning in Wuyuan had calmed down and that the imperial servant had monopolized the comforting power. Then, Wang Fulin, who also used such a group of so-called Cang Yong to suppress the troublemakers, then breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but support the archway pillar next to him with his hands. He felt that he had exhausted all his strength.
Where did Cang Yong come from? The old soldiers of the Qi family helped him train him. It was too late to fill the escort bureaus in various places. It was too late to manage the Yuliang Town General Warehouse at such a trenching junction. How could I get here? They were all white servants who were not in the registration book in the county government. They just learned how to do it. They were all soft-boys who ran away when they saw things. Fortunately, this bluff worked!
First, Mr. Wu mentioned it at Wang Erniang’s wedding, and then Liu Hui and others revisited it. Following the government office, Shuai Jiamo returned home in glory... A series of processes gradually unfolded, which was dazzling. Although he contacted most famous families in She County, don’t get involved and urgently arranged for unexpected defenses, the guys behind the scenes who were taking advantage of the troubled waters were also so bold that it was shocking!
He was not Zhuge Liang, who was smart, but was just preparing for the future. In Wuyuan, where the most likely incident, the control was prepared around two or three counties in Xiuning. But who would have thought that Wuyuan not only transferred the tiger away from the mountain to support the county magistrate Wu Guan, but also created a group of killers who jealous Wu Guan and almost killed Wu Guan and his group. The litigants gathered the rioters to occupy the county government and caused trouble. Xiuning was under house arrest and issued fake official documents, and then several litigants bullies led the rioters to scatter and donated all the way, and even lit people's houses! Fortunately, there was Ye Qinglong who led those wealthy grain merchants in Xiuning. He only went to Wuyuan. The powerful strength made Wu Guan rush back immediately regardless of his weakness after being robbed. He had to divide the people around him into help!
Even so, he ran back and forth for more than 500 miles, and after more than two days of running, his mount was exhausted and his two strands were completely worn out!
The people of the three counties persuaded them to leave and returned to their hometowns. The Fucheng and the county town, which had been making trouble for several days, returned to peace. As for whether some relevant people could calm down, Wang Fulin was too lazy to care. However, he was not a person who did nothing but work. He submitted a report every day to Yin Zhengmao, the Minister of Revenue of Nanjing, and Wang Daokun and Tan Lun of the capital. Among them, he only wrote an original copy for Tan Lun, and thought that Tan Lun might submit it to Zhang Juzheng. As for the others, Jin Bao and Qiu Fengye Xiaopang were responsible for copying. Because he would describe the details in detail, each letter was sprinkled thousands of words.
He knew very well that Zhang Juzheng was willing to make a big move in She County and re-introduce the summer tax silk silk at this time, and Yin Zhengmao, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue of Nanjing, also advocated equal taxes and service. The former wanted to take the opportunity to label Yu Mao after the five counties made a big fuss after something happened. As for Yin Zhengmao, he was a completely private She people, and took the opportunity to establish prestige in his mind in Sangzi Village. Not to mention Yin Zhengmao's selfishness for the time being, but Zhang Juzheng would never want such a thing to shock Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Fujian and Guangxi!
Therefore, Wang Fulin didn't mention Yu Maoxue in his letter to Tan Lun. As long as those people on the side are willing, some of them are obsessed with the orders. If they want to fabricate them, they can't fabricate them. What crimes can't be fabricated? In order to speak without friendship, people who have grudges, they are not such a saint.
Although he was exhausted, as soon as he returned to his small house on the back street of the county, he asked Jin Bao who was greeting him as soon as he entered the door: "Where is the person?"
Although he was so stupid that he asked, Jin Bao would certainly not make any mistakes. He immediately whispered: "Mom accompanied the lady in the main room, and his uncle and Qiu Feng were comforting his son, and he was on the second floor of the main hall, in his father's study."
"Yeah." Wang Fulin nodded and went up to the second floor without saying a word. When he pushed the door in, he saw the middle-aged man sitting in a daze on the chair. He covered the door casually and said lightly: "If I had known today, why should I have been there?"
Shuai Jiamo was as if he was struck by lightning. He looked up and saw that it was Wang Fulin coming in. The man who had suffered from life and death threats couldn't help but mutter to himself: "Why? Even if the five counties are equal to five counties, small counties like Jixi are only a few hundred taels of silver every year, and the average person is only a few dozen cents more. Why do they have to make such a fuss? Shemin proposed the unfairness of summer tax silk, which has been reported for almost a hundred years. Finally, there is a result now. Do you have to give up halfway?"
"When you returned home in glory, even the She County Magistrate Xue Chao regarded you as a hero, but now the situation has changed suddenly. If it weren't for the fact that the three and six wings of the She County Government were all tough people, you would have been thrown out to calm the public's anger by Xue Chao. Why don't you ask, why is this?"
Wang Fulin asked directly, and saw Shuai Jiamo's face full of bitterness. Then he buried his head deeply between his palms. He continued: "Don't worry about the lack of worries but the unevenness. She people have been raising one by one for more than a hundred years, and it is naturally because of this. For the other five counties of Huizhou Prefecture, paying more dozens of cents is just a drop in the bucket for the wealthy households, but for those who are barely in the family, dozens of cents means saving money from their teeth, and then being incited by those with ulterior motives, they will naturally become in chaos."
He briefly retelled the chaos between Xiuning and Wuyuan. Seeing Shuai Jiamo's face was shocked first, and then showed a terrifying expression, he knew that Shuai Jiamo understood the danger behind it. But in order to suppress the public, Xue Chao actually issued such cards, and layers of bosses also pushed all the matter to Shuai Jiamo alone. What kind of protection can such a foreigner who is not actually from She County get? He was just an unlucky guy who was pushed in front of the front and then sold it when it was useless!
"Young Master Wang..."
"Everyone has a heart of love for fame, and I have it too. But you have to consider the consequences of fame and be prepared to deal with the crisis. Unfortunately, Mr. Shuai, you were so arrogant at that time and had already regarded what I told you as an alarmist statement. Therefore, your family was invaded by more than a dozen rioters and smashed into ruins, and you were almost thrown out by Xue Chao, who had led you as a guest of honor, as a scapegoat."
Wang Fulin did not intend to hit Shuai Jiamo until his death. At this moment, he suddenly changed his mind and said: "Since the reform of Yisi, by the 14th year of Hongzhi, the summer tax and autumn grain had increased by a certain amount, but from the 14th year of Hongzhi to the 41st year of Jiajing, it was almost unchanged. You are a person who is familiar with the Huizhou Prefecture Chronicles, you should know that in the 26th year of Hongwu, the summer tax and wheat were 48,750 stones, and the silk was 9,718 pieces. In the 14th year of Hongzhi, the summer tax and wheat were 1,498 stones, seven dou, one liter, two in one spoon, and silk was less than eight,800 pieces. Then the two figures almost did not change until the 41st year of Jiajing."
Shuai Jiamo knew that Wang Fulin was a careful person, and he was not too surprised that he was so familiar with the tax figures. At this time, the corner of his mouth squirmed, but did not speak.
"This is the number in the Ming Dynasty Hui Dian. She County took this number and was closely linked to the summer tax silk. It was folded silk for people, not the amount of wheat owed in Jiachen. So the next year, the permanent system was set and used to pay for it. In order to compete with the other five counties, I don't want to talk about this today. After all, the total amount of summer tax in Huizhou Prefecture is this number every year, but the six counties collected together each year far more than this number, because the extra money is also used as public expenses for government offices, public expenses for county offices, and various public expenses for all kinds of public expenses. However, these are all regular taxes, and what about the miscellaneous items of annual taxes and distributions?"
Wang Fulin said while counting: "During the Jiajing period, all the main taxes of Huizhou Prefecture were only paid more than 60,000 taels. However, the annual supply of military supplies of the Ministry of Revenue was 5,535 taels. The annual supply of military supplies of the Ministry of Revenue was 5,682 taels. The annual supply of military supplies of the Ministry of Revenue was 2,270 taels. The annual supply of military supplies of the Ministry of Revenue was 12,159 taels. The additional supply of military supplies of the Ministry of Revenue was 16,920 taels. The Ministry of Revenue was 47,951 taels. There were 12,951 taels to assist Su Song Dingtian and Zhenjiang in military service. It was said that Su Song was not allowed to be levy, but it was still levy for four years. It was only stopped during the Longqing period. The Ministry of Works was entrusted to the Ministry of Revenue from time to time, 19,791 taels.
As for Fuyuan, he often sent a gift to assist neighboring counties, this is not common. In the 40th year of Jiajing, the country of King Jing was 20,000 taels. In the 44th year of Jiajing, the family members of King Jing returned to Beijing, 10,000 taels. Afterwards, the Fuyuan was slapped to prepare a gift to the neighboring counties. In the 34th year of Jiajing, he added 18,364 taels. Except for the special cases that indicate the age limit, the rest were recruiting classes every year and never stopped."
Even a person like Wang Fulin, who is very sensitive to numbers, still took a lot of effort to remember this long list of numbers, and it was because he was too shocked after reading the Huizhou Prefecture Chronicle Suibao column. If he was to go back to modern times, who would dare to explain the low tax on behalf of him? He wanted to criticize those people for their faces. That was because the court was really shameless and only recorded the official taxes in official scripts such as the Ming Dynasty and only took them out for people to see. The huge things like Suibao and Session can only be found in the local chronicles!
Of course, it was indeed an exception during the Jiajing period. There were the southeast anti-Japanese war and the Jiajing emperor who was building palaces, so the levy was particularly serious. However, if you calculate the various tributes and tributes, how much higher is the silver tax on the regular tax? The year with nearly 150,000 taels of silver, the most taxed year, these miscellaneous items were almost three times the main tax! What's even more terrible is that tributes and tributes should not be fixed, but gradually became the Yong system, which reduced during the Longqing period. A few years ago, when Ye Junyao was appointed as the magistrate of She County, tributes and tributes were considered low, but they were also higher than the main tax, at least one to two.
"Is this heavy burden heavy on summer tax silk or this year's tribute and tribute school? Poor, the civil servants and officials enriched the people, and no one dared to touch this. It should be noted that there was no such thing in the Hongwu period. The so-called never adding taxes is just not adding taxes. Miscellaneous items have never been done. Mr. Shuai, you are a proficient in arithmetic. Don't tell me you don't know! In the national-level classics of the Ming Huidian, the taxes are not taxed at the county level, and only distributed to the prefecture level. There are too many households who are exempt from duty and tax exemption. The total number of taxes in the county is more than the total number of taxes in the prefecture. The rest are all paid for public expenses, and the accounts are chaotic. This is the biggest source of disputes in the county!"
