The number of registered fields is small, but the taxes can be paid are the same.

Can it be fine?

In an instant, Suzhou magistrate Li Yujia quickly stood up and spoke quickly.

"Return to the imperial envoy..."

"You don't think it's too long to talk about the imperial envoy at once?" Li Zhigang suddenly interrupted him.

Li Yujia was stunned, and then he felt happy, "Li Butang!"

"Yes!" Li Zhigang nodded with satisfaction, "You continue talking!"

"The Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Revenue set a grain tax every year is a deadline, with more than 2.89,000 stones every year... not counting cotton and silk."

Li Yujia continued, "Who dares to have less! Not only is it impossible to have less, but in order to avoid loss, you also need to prepare more, the more you have to make the better..."

Suddenly, he suddenly woke up and didn't dare to say anything else.

Looking secretly, Li Zhicong really looked at him with a playful look.

"The registered land acres are not enough, but the grain tax cannot be reduced... and the more it needs to be better... Then the ministry asked you..." Li Zhigang smiled, "Where did you change the tax royal grain from?"

"This..." Li Yujia's forehead was filled with cold sweat, and she couldn't stand steadily.

Where did it come from? It was naturally plundered from the people! It was naturally plundered by various means!

Behind the more you get better are the blood and sweat of countless people, and the joy of countless corrupt officials!

Li Zhigang's eyes turned and fell on Xu Enming, the Huzhou Prefecture Terminal.

"Xu Mansion!"

"I'm humble...I'm humble!" Xu Enming stood up cowardly.

"The field book in Huzhou Prefecture is also 30% less than that in the Ministry of Revenue Huangcai." Li Zhigang said again, "What do you say?"

"Hot job..."

The room was silent, and Xu Enming was confused and helpless.

"Tell the Ministry of Revenue, is it because the yellow book of the Ministry of Revenue is wrong, or is the field book of your place wrong?" Li Zhigang stared into his eyes.

"Highly position...humble position..." He couldn't speak for two consecutive times.

"Huzhou Prefecture produces silk cloth!" Li Zhigang sneered again, "The annual grain tax allows the people to use raw silk and silk cloth instead of part of the grain! But the Ministry of Revenue has been reading the account books of the Ministry of Revenue for nearly three years."

"The taxes in Huzhou Prefecture are all grains, and there is no raw silk or silk cloth! Why?" As he said, Li Zhigang suddenly emphasized his tone and his face was not good. "Huzhou produces grain in less land, so how can there be so much grain? Where did the raw silk and silk cloth that the people paid for on behalf of the grain when they paid for grain, where did they go?"

thump!

Xu Enming could no longer stand and fell down.

The tricks in this place can be seen at a glance that raw silk and silk cloth are both in short supply, much more valuable than food.

When officials and gentry collected grain on behalf of the court, the raw silk and silk cloth in the hands of the people were naturally compensated at the lowest price. Then they changed their hands to food... and it was ten times the profit.

As for where the grain comes from? Isn’t there any old grain in the official warehouse?

"Mr...." Xu Enming fell to the ground and cried, "Please spare Beizhi's life!"

"Shut up!"

Li Zhigang shouted coldly and looked at the prefect of Shaoxing again.

The latter was as if it was swaying, and his lips were pale.

"When in Yangzhou, a small official from the official warehouse told the Ministry of Finance that the official grain fraud in Jiangnan was even worse. At that time, the Ministry of Finance was a little unbelievable!" Li Zhigang snorted coldly, "But now it seems that none of your dozen prefects... the parents of tens of thousands of people in the palace are clean!"

"Master Master!" Hula, a group of kneeling down in the room.

Li Zhigang stood up with his hands behind his back, looking down at the officials crawling under his feet with a cold face.

"You must know about Yangzhou, right?"

"yes....."

Li Zhigang suddenly sighed, "Oh, many people have died! I heard that the river water was dyed red from the Sanshi execution ground outside Taiping Gate of the capital! The people in the capital dare not eat the fish in the river!"

After he said this, these prefects who were usually arrogant were shaking like sieve.

"You should be able to guess what you did?"

"Ministry and Ministry, listen to a humble saying!"

Li Zhigang looked around and said that he was King Huaide of Songjiang Prefecture.

Li Zhigang is from Songjiang, and his family is in Songjiang, so he is quite polite to his parents in his hometown.

"you say!"

"The low-level officials are in the local area, and many local disadvantages are not invisible, but powerless!" Wang Huaide cried, "The local relationship is too deep, so deep that it dares not move! Because without the support of officials and gentry, the low-level officials cannot do anything!"

"Not to mention those big landlords and gentry, even the key positions in the yamen, are all children of well-known local families. Therefore, many things can only turn a blind eye, otherwise it will be difficult to move forward!"

As soon as he said this, the others immediately cried, "It's hard to be a low-level position! The court wants food taxes, but the officials and gentry don't cooperate, and the low-level position is powerless and can only... let it go!"

"Bastard! Nonsense! Twist the responsibility!"

Li Zhigang sneered, "No matter how difficult it is, is there a new policy? Is it difficult to have what the main office does?"

"I don't know if what Honbudang did offends people, right? Ah? But Honbudang still did it without hesitation, why?"

"Old, you must repay the kindness of the emperor. Next, you must repay the kindness of the people's nurturing. In the middle, you must be worthy of the books of sages you read!"

"Even the officials and gentry can't control them, but let them control you. What officials are you doing?"

"Are you worthy of being an official?"

"Midong, we are wronged..."

Officials of four or five ranks kneeled on the ground and cried without any image, just like shrews.

Suddenly, the crying came to an abrupt end.

Because Li Zhigang said something, "Do you want to die or live?"

As he said that, he sneered, "Since you know what happened in Yangzhou, you will know that your fate will not be better!"

"Now the Honcho asked you, do you want to die or live?"

"You have to live!" Li Yujia rolled and crawled, "Mr., Huye wants to live!" As he said, he cried, "There is still a mother of seventies in the family, a staggering son!"

"If you have a mission, you must do your best!" the others shouted.

Li Zhigang looked at the prefects with a slightly gray hair and sighed, "Twenty years of hard work and ten years of experience in the officialdom. No mistakes are made, and you must be talented and happy to achieve what you have today!"

"I know you are in trouble! I want to be with the light and be at peace in the local area. Then I get an excellent grade in the evaluation of the Ministry of Personnel. When I retire in another ten years, I can become a third-rank official. Even if I don't live in vain in this life, I will not only shine my family but also pave the way for my descendants!"

"Wuwuwu..." The prefects were said to cry bitterly.

"But have you ever thought about it? Who do you official do you serve as an official?" Li Zhigang said again, "On weekdays, thinking about various favors, various interpersonal relationships, colleagues, teachers and students, face, face, face, face, face, classmates... Thinking of Shui Qing Wuyu as long as the general direction is good, he pretends that he hasn't seen some things?"

"Who are you officials?" Li Zhigang said again, "You are not as good as those real corrupt officials! At least they have put all their money in their own pockets, where are you?"

"I thought I wouldn't be a taboo to collect those three melons and two dates, and I thought I could not find out. In fact, what you collected is left by others, and only those left by others is enough to buy your head!"

"I'm so damn, please give me mercy to the Lord of the Ministry!"

Li Zhigang kept sneering, "Okay, since you want to live, your headquarters can protect you in front of the Lord Long live..."

Suddenly, a strong light of hope appeared in the eyes of more than a dozen prefects.

No one in the Ming Dynasty knows now that this is a big celebrity in front of the emperor. As long as he speaks, there is nothing the emperor cannot do to be sure of.

The emperor would rather let hundreds of officials kneel outside the Meridian Gate and cry bitterly, and all of them would protect him!

"But there is a prerequisite!" Li Zhigang said, "New Policy!" and glanced coldly, "The order just issued by the imperial court, two things, the grain chief system and the township will be implemented in one month. Is it OK? Yes!"

The prefects in front of him gritted their teeth and said, "Okay!"

"Hmph!" Li Zhigang snorted coldly, "This attitude is right. Is there any difficult thing in this world? The so-called difficult thing is that we officials are not serious. Once we are serious, there will be no difficult thing!"

"Also, I want to accurately place the land book, as well as the relevant people who have tampered with taxes over the years, etc., and the total amount!"

Li Zhigang's eyes became colder and colder, "You don't have to think about taking yourself out... Since I promised to protect you from death, I will definitely let you live!"

"If you have the intention to fool, don't say you are going to die, your whole family..."

"I dare not......"

~~

Through this room, the three of them listened with complex expressions.

Tie Xuan, Jing Qing, Han Kezhong.

"The land in Zhejiang Province has clear accounts in the minds of Bei Zhi and the two adults!" Han Kezhong said, "Why did the emperor ask Lord Li to come?"

Tie Xuan sighed, "The emperor's kindness is so great!"

Han Kezhong was stunned, thinking that he didn't understand.

Jing Qing smiled and said, "If you offend someone, don't let the three of us do it!"

Han Kezhong then suddenly realized!

~

Inside the house, the prefect went there with great gratitude.

Only the prefect of Songjiang was left behind.

"I want to ask you something!" Li Zhigang said squintingly.
