2245. Chapter 2245 Move a rock and hit yourself in the foot 03
The big men who were fighting over there couldn't help but stop.
However, for their own interests, they are tied to Deng Yongzhong. After so many years, they have long seen through that no one can conquer this salt field, and the emperor here is Deng Yongzhong.
If he wants to live, he will live, and if he gives people wealth, he will be rich. If he doesn't nod, the emperor and I can't do anything.
Therefore, they did not receive Deng Yongzhong's order and continued to cause trouble.
Huangfujin snorted coldly, waved his robe sleeves, and rolled up the waist knives of the officials below him into his hands. He shouted "Gahba gaba" several times, waved his robe sleeves again, and those broken metals became the most powerful ones.
Hidden weapons were fired across the crowd at the strong men who were causing trouble and beating people.
"Puff puff puff" sounded several times, and the sound of metal piercing flesh was heard. The strong men began to cry out one by one. As a lesson, Huangfu Jin removed one of their arms.
Since they rely on brute force to bully others, then take away what they are proud of.
He said coldly: "The imperial court allocates a lot of money to Haizhu City every year, and it also continues to reduce the burden here every year. One-fifth of the salt you produce is kept for your own use, and is left to the local officials to improve it."
It depends on the local conditions. Except for salt, the imperial court requires almost no taxes here. Even fruits, seafood, etc. are purchased at market prices. But you are still suffering like this, not having enough to eat or wearing warm clothes, so whose fault is it?"
Su Mo smiled softly and whispered: "Brother Jin, this is a good move."
Huangfujin originally had a cold face, but when he heard her gentle voice, his expression softened and he didn't want to talk anymore.
Su Mo saw that the momentum had just started and could not be let down, so he said: "Your Majesty has already ordered that those who have completed their sentences will be exiled here. If they want to return to their hometown, they are allowed to return. If they don't want to return, they can take root here and treat them as ordinary people and pay taxes."
Life."
She glanced at Deng Yongzhong as if nothing had happened. Seeing that his face turned pale and green, she continued: "Didn't you receive such an announcement?"
This is simply an inherent rule of the imperial court. However, since Deng Yongzhong came here, the laws of the imperial court have basically been abolished, and everything must be in accordance with his regulations.
Those who come here, as long as they can work, don't want to leave easily.
To him, they were cheap labor. The court paid for them to support them. He could still take advantage of the opportunity to make a lot of money and make a fortune. How could he be willing to let them go?
Therefore, every time the imperial court wanted to improve the geology here, move nearby people to live here, turn this place into a normal state or county, and exile prisoners there, he refused.
He must ensure most of the desolation here in order to ensure his own prosperity.
"This is someone deliberately ignoring the laws of the court."
Su Mo sighed softly at the end, then held Huangfu Jin's hand and said with a smile: "Brother Jin, we have to leave soon."
Sure enough, those gathered began to whisper and pointed the finger at Deng Yongzhong.
Previously, Deng Yongzhong had been behind the scenes, and everything was done by hundreds of households. He only gave orders.
And every once in a while, he would come out, wear tattered clothes, and go to the hard workers to show sympathy for the people. While saying that he wanted to improve their lives, he punished a few bullies and overbearing officials. In fact, it was no more than
They were just transferred away.
In this way, he has always been a hope in the minds of those workers. They feel that after they have suffered so many unfair treatments, they can seek justice from this person.
