"Not to mention the distance, last year the imperial court deployed troops in Liaodong and sent military expenditures to our land!"
In the hall, Dai Xinggui, the Chief Secretary's grain officer in charge of the city's grain supply, also immediately spoke up, "A total of 1,200,000 pieces of cloth, 240,507 jins of silk floss, and 53,000 jins of cotton velvet were collected.
Three hundred and twenty-four pounds."
"These things are thanks to the help of the gentry. Otherwise, no matter how rich the people are, who would be willing to give it away for free?"
"Gentleman help?" Tie Xuan suddenly sneered, "Did the gentry take it out by himself, or help collect it?" As he said, his eyes suddenly became stern, and he shouted angrily, "If the gentry took it out, I will report it to the emperor immediately.
Give them a commendation! But if the gentry helped collect it, I would like to ask you, how much of it is the blood and sweat of the common people, and how much is the wealth of the gentry's family?"
"This..." Dai Xinggui suddenly became speechless.
"Tell me! Isn't your family the largest landowner in Huzhou? If you don't know about other places, just talk about Huzhou!" Tie Xuan continued to ask.
Dai Xinggui was sweating heavily on his forehead and did not dare to speak.
"There are some things I don't want to make clear!" Tie Xuan snorted, his eyes like daggers, "The reason why there is resistance to the implementation of the New Deal in Z is in the lobby of the Chief Secretary!"
"Because the officials and gentry pay the same salary, it harms the interests of you gentry."
"Abolish the Ding tax, and you won't be able to hide your population or report your land acres!"
"Furthermore, because you are gentry and wealthy people, the taxes you pay to the country are directly passed on to the common people under your clever name!"
"Ha! You really think I am Tie Xuan, can't you see clearly?"
"Or do you think I don't want to break up with you?"
The sudden two sentences "Lao Tzu" made the officials in the hall stunned. Who would have thought that the feudal officials would talk about "Lao Tzu" one after another, just like the military officials.
"Do you think that after I came here, after I collected the money, ate the food, and drank the wine, I pretended to be deaf and mute and became a living Bodhisattva?" Tie Xuan sneered again, "Haha, you thought I would join in with you and obey the rules.
What are your so-called bullshit rules?”
At that moment, all the officials in the hall were even more stunned.
For a moment, looking at Tie Xuan's sneer, everyone's backs felt cold, and at the same time, they suddenly remembered an idiom.
See you in the picture!
"Lord of the feudal lord!" Wu Guosheng, who participated in the political affairs, spoke again, "Don't worry, the officials and others know that the imperial court and Long Live value the New Deal. But this place is no better than other places. It has been the world's wealth since the two Song Dynasties, and the relationship is too complicated.
!”
"It's not that I don't understand the difficulties of my lord, nor am I unaware of Lord Long Live's thoughts. However, everything must be done slowly! You must give me some time..."
"The Emperor didn't give you time? I didn't give you time?" Tie Xuan sneered, "Aren't you just thinking that you can delay it day by day, slowly sharpening the dull knife?"
After saying that, he sneered again, "Everyone, I know that this place has been dominated by officials and gentry hundreds of years ago. During the Yuan Dynasty, the emperor of the capital city wanted to ask for money from here, and he also sent the prime minister here.
, talk to the local chief minister and discuss it well. Then, the local wealthy family will show respect to the emperor and pool some money to honor him!"
"The Emperor of the Yuan Dynasty got money, and then he granted a lot of official positions and titles. Haha, don't forget, this is the world of the Ming Dynasty, and you are the officials of the Ming Dynasty!"
"Long live my Lord, I will not allow you to fool me!"
As he said that, Tie Xuan sneered again, and then suddenly looked at someone.
Zhou Zhirong felt as if two knives were stabbing him, and his heart palpitated.
"Sir, this is a humble position..."
"You are the second son of the Zhou family in Ningbo, right? I remember that on the second day after taking office, you brought your uncle to visit and left me a five thousand silver dollar banknote!" Tie Xuan snorted, "
Bribing the vassal of a province, hehe!"
Zhou Zhirong stood up and said in a trembling voice, "Sir, you are joking, that is... that is tea money for you..."
"The emperor can't drink five thousand silver a year when he drinks tea! Tsk tsk, I'm really blessed!" Tie Xuan picked up the tea cup and took a sip, then put it down and said with a smile, "Don't be afraid, I'm telling you something.
A good thing!”
Zhou Zhirong was even more worried, his legs trembling as he stood.
"Your boat was impounded by Jin Yiwei!"
"Ah!" With one word, the hall suddenly became excited.
Tie Xuan stared at it for a long time. Under his gaze, his voice gradually subsided.
Does he know what these officials are afraid of?
"You're really a bitch. When I heard about Jin Yiwei, I was so frightened that I became so virtuous!"
Tie Xuan was disdainful and spoke slowly and jokingly, "The Zhou family's ship concealed cargo and evaded taxes. The Zhou family's stewards bribed customs inspections and bribed officials to buy and sell routes!"
"This... I really don't know what I'm doing!" Zhou Zhirong said hurriedly, "Your Excellency, it's clear that the people below must be doing something wrong!" After saying that, he hurriedly continued, "I'm going home immediately, so that my family can find out what happened.
The tax supplement..."
"You don't know? Oh, it's just that you don't know about these little things!" Tie Xuan smiled again, and then his eyes tightened, "Selling military contraband to the Japanese, liaising with Japanese pirates, and hoarding silver, don't you know either?
?”
Suddenly, Zhou Zhirong's body leaned directly on the coffee table behind him, and he fell down in embarrassment.
"I really don't know how to humble my position. As an official of the imperial court, how can I..." Zhou Zhirong cried loudly, but he hated his family to death.
"For someone to actually get caught doing such a hidden thing, this is the crime of confiscating a family and exterminating a clan!"
"Do you know that I don't have the patience to think about it?"
After saying that, Tie Xuan snorted and said to the back hall, "Guys, please come in and get someone!"
As soon as he finished speaking, all the officials in the hall looked at him in horror, and several members of the royal guards came in with their heads held high.
Fanzi, who was in charge, looked at everyone as if he were looking at a dead person.
"Zhou Zhirong, come with me!" As he said that, several guards tied up Zhou Zhirong's hands behind his back.
"Slow down!" Tie Xuan stood up and smiled, "First take away his official hat, take off his official clothes, and then pull them off!"
"My lord, my lord, my humble wish!"
"Sir, please speak for me!"
"My colleagues, I was wronged!"
Zhou Zhirong was being taken away while shouting. Wherever Tie Xuan looked, no one dared to raise his head and look at him.
"Today, I will let you know the truth. What the local wealthy businessmen and wealthy families have colluded with some officials to do has been reported to the emperor. Otherwise, the royal guards will not come!"
"Everyone, your buttocks are not clean, are they?"
"Hey, Jin Yiwei is not as easy to talk to as I am, so why don't I just give you some tea!"
Suddenly, Wu Guosheng, who was participating in the political affairs, bowed down and said, "Lord of the feudal lord, the lower officials and other Wei leaders are looking at you!"
"Well! Don't show your loyalty yet!" Tie Xuan sneered, "There are two ways, cooperate with me, take care of the matters of the land, the head tax, the population of the land, and the workshop and mulberry fields! The other way, wait for the Jin Yiwei to come.
Search the house!"
After saying that, he snorted again, "This is the Ming Dynasty! The handle of the knife is very powerful!"
~~~
Regardless of how frightened the officials in the hall were, Tie Xuan had already retreated to the back hall.
Talking too much is useless, just point it out.
I can't believe that in the face of death, those gentry, officials, wealthy families, and the wealthy would not cooperate.
As soon as we entered the back hall, we saw Jing Qing coming up to us.
"Brother Dingshi, what you said is wrong!" Jing Qing said with a straight face.
"What are you talking about?" Tie Xuan was puzzled.
"You said there are two roads for them, doesn't that mean that they helped implement the New Deal and everything else will be forgotten?" Jing Qing looked angry, "They are just exempt from crimes such as occupying fields and hiding the population?"
"I didn't say exempt!" Tie Xuan laughed.
"But you didn't say anything about punishment!" Jing Qing said seriously.
"Hi!" Tie Xuan smiled and patted the other party's shoulder, "Don't we still have you as the inspector?" He said and sneered twice, "They are still useful. You need people to do things. It can't be just you and me.
Do it for two!”
"Furthermore, the more they do, the more evidence will be exposed. When the time comes, it will be easy for you, the prosecutor, to arrest people based on the evidence!"
Jing Qing suddenly realized, "What do you mean, give them a few nice words and use them to death. Then, deal with them one by one!"
"Yes!" Tie Xuan laughed.
"You!" Jing Qing looked at Tie Xuan carefully, "You are so damn bad!"
