Chapter 321

Chapter 321 County Government Offers Suggestions

When he heard that he was going back to his grandma's house to get something, Dabaolin Ruiwen was so happy that he asked happily: "Mom, can you bring the tiger treasure back today?"

"Okay, my mother will bring the tiger cubs back to you today."

Chu Nanzhi also took advantage of the situation and demanded: "Then Dabao, you have to promise your mother that you will take your brothers and sisters at home to review your calligraphy and calligraphy today. When your mother goes to the county government office to see your grandma, you will go back to grandma's house to pick up the things."

Dabaolin Ruiwen nodded obediently, waved to the little guys, and ordered in a serious manner: "Go wash your face and rinse your mouth quickly. After breakfast, go back to the east wing to read Chinese characters."

The three little guys looked at each other. Although they were not happy, they could not disobey Dabao's words. After all, she had her mother's permission.

Chu Nanzhi watched the quadruplets obediently follow Sang Qi to the kitchen to fetch water and wash their faces. She pursed her lips and nodded with a smile. They were really good children.

Liu Yun was very satisfied when she saw that the quadruplets were being controlled obediently by her daughter. She smiled warmly at her and said, "Da Zhi, you still have the ability."

"That's not the credit of my mother. If she wasn't so kind and caring, and she taught her daughters so well, how could she have given birth to a daughter as smart as me?"

Chu Nanzhi was thinking about the marriage contract on Liu Yun's body, and couldn't help but give her a rainbow fart.

After being praised by her daughter, Liu Yun arrogantly rolled her eyes at Chu Wenbi who was standing beside her, and proudly showed off: "That's right, without me, how could you and your daughter be as blessed as you are today?"

Chu Wenbi curled his lips when he heard this: "Yes, yes, it's all your credit. Without you, our ancestors of the old Chu family would have no place to worship."

After saying that, Tong Liu Yun gave Liu Yun a disdainful roll of his eyes, and went to the kitchen with his crutches.

"You damn old man, what are you talking about?"

Liu Yun was so frustrated by his sarcastic remarks that she complained to Chu Nanzhi with her lips pursed: "Look at how disrespectful your father is and how stubborn he is. Let me see how long he can be tough."

Zhi, you send him back today and don’t allow your father to stay here anymore. I will stay at your and your son-in-law’s house.”

As he said that, he faced the direction Chu Wenbi left and raised his voice: "If he doesn't come to pick me up in person, he won't go back."

"ah?"

Chu Nanzhi looked embarrassed.

Lin Jinhui watched silently from the side, unable to stop having fun.

Liu Yun found that her daughter seemed very reluctant, frowned and said: "Why, you don't want to stay at home for your mother?"

"how come."

Chu Nanzhi smiled stiffly: "A daughter's home is her mother's home."

Speaking of this, a flash of light flashed in her clear eyes, and she quickly said sincerely: "Just in time, mother can stay at home. There are a lot of things at home now. Anyway, the fish pond has been sorted out. Let father go back and be with Shu Yang.

Just take care of it."

If Liu Yun was sent back, the two places were far apart, and she would not be able to persuade her to come up with the marriage contract in just one month.

Doesn't this just give yourself a chance?

Good.

Liu Yun saw that she suddenly became so excited, and nodded dubiously at her sincerity: "That's right, there is nothing busy at home, A Zhu and the others can take care of it, but you have all the complicated things here.

.”

"Isn't that right? I have to go to the county government office today. When the handyman who repairs the yard comes over later, my mother will take care of it for me."

As soon as Chu Nanzhi finished speaking, Sang Kun came back from feeding the horses in the stable. Hearing her words, he volunteered to come over and asked, "Master, if you are busy, I can help repair the yard."

"Oh, can you still build a house?"

Chu Nanzhi looked at him in surprise.

"I know a little bit about it."

Sang Kun replied calmly.

"That couldn't be better."

Chu Nanzhi took advantage of the situation and said, "It just so happens that you can stay at home and help my mother with the housework."

This is also a good time to test the abilities of the two brothers and sisters.

After arranging everything and having breakfast at home, Chu Nanzhi led Lin Jinhui and asked Sang Qi to drive the carriage and hurried to the county government office.

It's already three o'clock in the morning, and the county government office is particularly lively today.

Lin Jinxiao summoned officials from all over Luyan Port County to discuss the matter.

The tax ambassador was the first to submit the report and said cautiously: "There was a spring famine at the beginning of this year, and many people paid rent for their food. There has been only one rain in the past few months, and the paddy fields and dry land in various places have been greatly affected.

, I’m afraid that in addition to not being able to guarantee the tax revenue in the second half of the year, there is also a high possibility of famine.”

After a pause, the tax envoy cautiously added: "I heard that the imperial court has issued another decree to increase taxes, and it will be spread to all counties soon."

"The Eastern Coastal Defense Zone has just been established. The current situation is not suitable for imposing additional taxes. Instead, taxes should be reduced. What's more, droughts have occurred in various places. Maintaining people's livelihood is the top priority and cannot cause internal and external troubles. I will report the situation of the six eastern counties to the court one by one.

Show Ming."

Regarding this matter, Lin Jinxiao had already made up his mind and said: "I remember that there are more than 30,000 shi of grain in the official warehouse. I can allocate part of it and lend it to the people as grain. Now is the late rice sowing season. Let the people put the rice first."

Once the seeds are sown, the king’s tax envoy will also order the six counties to take inventory of the granaries, and be prepared to open the granaries and release grain at any time in the event of famine.”

The tax envoy said with some worry: "But the grain in the official warehouse is prepared for military food and emergency needs. Now that the imperial army is stationed here, it may be difficult to secure military supplies if the grain from the official warehouse is used. What's more, the land annexation is serious now, and wealthy families

The nobles also followed the imperial court in raising rents, and even if they lent food to the people, they might not be able to get it back."

"Because of this, we have to find ways to solve these messes. Is it possible that the people in each county must be exploited until they rise up in rebellion before they are willing to give up?"

Lin Jinxiao sounded a little angry.

Although I don't want to criticize the former officials, officials everywhere have developed a lazy style of only focusing on superficial political achievements without caring about the lives of the people at the bottom.

After thinking for a moment, he said decisively: "The eastern counties have been without war for many years. Although they are not very prosperous, the population is prosperous. I have lived in the village for many years and I am used to seeing a lot of idle people, all of whom are young and strong.

Men, it’s not that they don’t want to make progress, it’s that they are forced by the world and can only choose to wander around doing nothing.

Yesterday, the Japanese officials checked the chronology and land use situation, and found some extremely ridiculous things. Our Luyan Port is a fertile and wild country, and has always been a major grain-producing county. At present, the phenomenon of land annexation is already serious, but you are trying to please your superiors.

, to occupy fertile farmland as a horse racing farm, when did Luyan Port become a place for war horses?"

The taxing ambassador was so frightened by his severe question that he trembled and replied with fear: "The establishment of a major coastal defense town in the east requires the supply of war horses. This is also an urgent matter."

"Even if you are raising wars, you should adapt to local conditions. Do you still need me to teach you how to make the best use of materials and people?"

Lin Jinxiao said solemnly: "Not to mention that most of the wars in the six eastern counties are dominated by naval battles. There is no room for horses to gallop. It is simply a waste of natural resources to use fertile land to raise horses. You all complain about the difficulty of taxation all day long.

But I never really used my brain."

Hearing this, the Tax Ambassador and the Cang Ambassador both looked at him solemnly and asked: "I wonder if you have any clever ideas?"

I missed a chapter and I’ve added it. If you have votes, remember to vote. The more you vote, the more you leave a message.
