Chapter 807: New Order (4000 words)
A few days later, notices were posted in various county towns.
The government sent officials to the market with a large population flow, posted a notice on the poster board in front of the main road, and then struck a few gongs with 'bang, bang, bang', attracting a large number of people to stop and watch.
There were many words written densely on the notice, and the people at that time generally did not know how to read, so they had to nod and ask the official who posted the notice: "Poor master, what is written on it?" β
The official glanced at the man and replied in a loud voice: "This is the general's new tax policy, which will be implemented in all counties and counties of Yanzhou. β
Hearing this reply, the faces of the people were all full of sadness, they had just taken Yanzhou, and they were really going to attack them again.
Some irascible men even shouted directly, and said loudly to the people around them: "It's just that the general is not sympathetic to us, and as soon as he comes, he will make these filthy and messy halls, and it is clear that he wants to force us to a dead end!" β
"It's just that we can't feed ourselves, where is there more food to hand in!"
"Last year, dozens of people starved to death in our village!"
The people were talking about it, and it was obvious that in their eyes, this notice had become a means for Lu Bu to exploit and oppress them.
Because before that, the government did not do less than this lack of morality.
"It's all shouting and coaxing something, and the illiterate ones can also show Lao Tzu clearly!"
When the officials heard the rumors spread by the people, they roared fiercely, and the people were immediately silent. Then the official tapped his finger on the wooden board on which the notice was attached, and followed the words, and pronounced them one by one in a loud voice:
I, LΓΌ Bu, the great general of the dynasty, arrived in Yanzhou today, and saw that the people were poor, the people were struggling to make a living, and there were countless people who died of famine and hunger, so he made the following adjustments to inform the people in the territory.
Where there are elderly and young children in the family, the court will be exempted from paying taxes by 30% within two years.
Those who have children in the family who are conscripted in the army are exempted from paying 30% of the tax.
If a woman marries a soldier of the Lu army, the tax will be exempted by 30%.
In addition, all the people in Yanzhou will be exempted from the tax on the land leased from the family to 30%.
Wow~~~
The people were in an uproar, and the expressions on their faces were full of disbelief.
If this is true, that great general is simply a bodhisattva who saves suffering!
Of course, there are also a few suspicious people who have a negative attitude and shout loudly in an attempt to disturb the people's hearts: "I don't believe that the general will have such good intentions!" There is no good person in office, there must be a conspiracy! β
"Hey, don't interrupt, listen to the errand master finish reading the rest and then talk about it!"
The officer's fingers were only halfway through the notice, and there was still a lot of content left behind.
The people couldn't wait to listen to the content behind, holding their breath, lest they miss half a word.
The official changed his tone, and then read:
In recent years, natural and man-made disasters have continued, and wars have broken out, resulting in a large number of casualties and loss of people, so I have decided to implement population incentives in the past ten years. That is, if a woman gives birth to a child, if she gives birth to a baby boy, she will be rewarded with two stones of grain and one chicken and duck; If it is a daughter, she will be rewarded with two stones of grain, one piece of cloth, and one pig.
If there are elderly people over the age of 50 and children under the age of 10 in the family, they can go to the local government office to receive a free one-month ration by virtue of their household registration.
other
Half a month later, I will hold a large-scale blind date event for the soldiers outside Yanzhou, and all women who are not married or widowed can participate.
After the official finished reading, the people were so shocked that they couldn't speak.
If his daughter can marry a soldier of the Lu army, and then have another doll, wouldn't it be equivalent to paying taxes and giving chickens and ducks food!
It's really pie in the sky!
"I'm not dreaming! Son, smack your father hard! In the crowd, a simple man with a dark appearance said to the little boy next to him.
The little boy was dressed thinly, and he looked very thin, about seven or eight years old. Listening to his father's instructions, the little boy was also very obedient, and stretched out his little hand to rub his father's thigh hard.
Hiss~
The little boy's father gasped in pain, put his hands on his son's shoulders, showed his missing yellow teeth, and exclaimed excitedly: "This is not a dream, this is not a dream!" β
Looking at his appearance, he was even happier than marrying a daughter-in-law.
"Son, let's go, let's go home!"
"But we haven't sold out of firewood yet......"
"And sell firewood for a ball! Let's go back and get the registered household registration certificate and go to the government to get food! Tonight, we don't have to gnaw on the bark anymore! β
"Really?" The little boy's eyes lit up for a moment.
"When did the father lie to you!"
Long live the General! Long live the General!
The man picked up his son on his back, shouted all the way, and ran away like a madman.
It's touching to watch, but it's also sad.
After repeatedly asking the officials for confirmation, the people here in the market quickly dispersed, completely forgetting the initial doubts and slaps in the face, and wondering what kind of preferential policies they could enjoy.
With this kind of good thing, the people call friends and friends, and word of mouth spreads at a very fast speed in the land of Yanzhou.
After dusk, there was still a long queue outside the county gate of Yanzhou City.
Dozens of officials were distributing food, and a scribe who looked like a civil official was holding a pen in his right hand, sitting at the desk, checking the household registration certificate handed over, and if it met the requirements, he would make a circle on the household registration book, and the official behind him would hand over the weighed grain.
Despite the long queue, there was no trace of impatience on the faces of the people, but they were full of hope and excitement, and they moved forward in an orderly manner.
Lu Bu and Guo Jia changed into their regular clothes and came slowly.
When he came to the rear of Changlong, perhaps because of fate, Lu Bu saw the old farmer he met in the field some time ago, so he stepped forward to say hello: "Uncle, what a coincidence!" β
When the old man saw Lu Bu, he was obviously quite surprised, and after bowing and saluting, he replied respectfully: "Noble, it's you." β
"What are you doing here?"
Lu Bu asked knowingly, wanting to hear the opinions of the people on the new policy.
The old man was a little reserved, and said humbly: "The general has issued a new decree, and all the elderly over fifty years old and children under the age of ten can come here to receive food. β
Lu Bu showed some disbelief, "Is there really such a good thing?" β
The old man nodded his head firmly, it was true.
"This general is really our savior!" Behind the old man, there was a man holding his own child with great emotion.
There are many young and strong men queuing up here, and they are afraid that their children or old fathers will not be able to carry food, so they accompany them.
"Who says it's not, I have always supported General Cao before, hoping that the general will be defeated and retreat. Now that I think about it, it's really lard that blinds my heart and liver, and I have no heart and lungs! Someone was annoyed and repented of his original thoughts.
The man next to him seemed to have a similar experience, and sighed: "Before, there were rumors outside that the general was bloodthirsty and tyrannical, and the brutality index was no less than that of Dong Zhuo back then. The moment I learned that Yanzhou had been broken, if it weren't for my mother's serious illness in bed, I would have almost fled to Yuzhou with my whole family for refuge......"
"It's a good thing you didn't make it, otherwise, how would you still get this life-saving food!" The man next to him said heartily.
The man nodded yes, and at the same time admired the general he had never met, and sighed with emotion: "In the world, it is difficult to have such a benevolent heart as a general!" When I received the food and went home, I will erect a monument to the general and bless him with a long life. β
The people at the bottom are like this, they don't know a few words, and they don't understand the great principles of the family and the country, but whoever is good to them, they will read whose love.
The long line moved forward in an orderly manner, and after chatting with the old farmer for a while, Lu Bu planned to return home.
At this time, there was an impatient voice in front of him: "Okay, okay, that's the end of today, if you want to receive food, come back tomorrow!" β
Hearing this, the people immediately panicked and pleaded in unison.
"Master Guan, my family has not had food in the pot for several days, so I am counting on this food to survive, please give us some more time!"
"That's right, please!"
In the face of the people's bitter pleading, the county man who wrote the pen was unmoved, waved his hand impatiently, and sneered in a sharp voice: "There was no food distribution before, don't you also live well!" Now you can receive food, but you can't live, you untouchables, it's hypocrisy! β
The people dared to be angry but did not dare to speak, for fear that if they offended the official who released the grain, they would never receive food again in the future, so they had to swallow their anger aggrievedly.
In order to survive with food, some people knelt on the ground, kowtowed and pleaded repeatedly. However, the county magistrate didn't bother to take another look, and scolded those unbearable servants: "What are you doing in a daze, don't you move all these grains, tables and chairs back to the county government." β
The officials could not afford to offend the county magistrate, so they had to carry the grain.
"My lord, it's not too late now, how many people are counting on food to survive, how is it different from grass and people's lives when you do this?" Lu Bu stepped forward from the rear and strutted with his head held high.
The county secretary looked Lu Bu up and down, except that he was taller, he was no different from ordinary people, so he mocked: "How old are you?" Want to stand up for them? β
Lu Bu glanced at the county boy, and his cold gaze made the latter shiver unconsciously, and his back was cold.
"I don't know how old I am, but I know that it is the court and the people who support you. In his position, he should seek his own government, otherwise, how is it different from a beast? Lu Bu said in a deep voice, and took two steps forward.
In front of the public, the county Bo, who was so counted and had a good family background, felt that he had lost face, and roared with a red face and a thick neck: "Come on, take down this fanatic who insulted the court officials for me!" β
More than a dozen melons beside him stepped forward.
At this moment, an anxious shout suddenly sounded at the door of the government office: "Stop! β
Everyone looked over, and saw the county commander Wang walking towards them in a hurry, with an anxious look on his face.
This tall figure with his back to him couldn't be clearer.
I remember that when Lu Bu first entered Yanzhou, he called all the county guards and county orders from all over the country to Yanzhou City, and carried out a division of power and interests.
was willing to do it with him, and after making a petition for his name, he continued to go back to be a county guard and county order, and someone sang a contradiction, but he was dragged out and cut off his head on the spot.
As a result, Lu Bu left a ruthless and vicious impression in the hearts of Wang Ji and others.
trotted to Lu Bu's approach, Wang Chuan bowed his hand, almost bent his waist to the ground, and said in fear: "Xiaguan Wang Jie greets the late, please forgive the Great General Sima." β
For everyone present, this sentence is no less than the thunder in the nine skies, and the thunderbolt on a sunny day. Everyone was stunned at this moment.
Da Sima ...... General......
The county was shocked, staggered back two steps, looked at the person in front of him in disbelief, only to feel as if he had been struck by lightning, and then his eyes were black, and he fainted on the spot in fright.
The people all knelt on the ground, nervous and uneasy, especially the few men who were talking to Lu Bu with a big grin, they were even more frightened, and almost buried their heads in the soil, lest they would verbally collide with Lu Bu and kill them.
"Rise up and wait!"
Lu Bu raised his hand, glanced at the county man who had fainted, and said to the people in a loud voice: "There is such a black sheep, disgrace to the court and the government, and it is the fault of Bu's lax supervision, I am here to make amends to everyone!" β
As he spoke, Lu Bu bowed down and clenched his fists and made an apology to the people.
"The general can't, how dare I, a mere pariah, accept such a big gift! What's more, you have also issued a new decree to put yourself in our shoes. This kind of kindness will be remembered in our hearts for the rest of our lives! β
The people spoke one after another, expressing their gratitude to Lu Bu in their hearts.
"As a sign of forgiveness, I will now send you bread."
As he spoke, Lu Bu rolled up his sleeves, took the wooden scoop from the servant's hand, scooped up the wheat and corn, put it into a cloth bag and handed it to the people.
Lu Budu did this, how dare the county commander Wang Ji be idle, knelt on the ground, and made a record with a pen instead of the county book that had passed out.
Lu Bu's pro-people behavior moved the people to a great uproar.
Two hours later, the moonlight crept up the branches.
Walking on the way home, the two black shadows reflected in the moonlight on the bluestone road, one high and one low.
It is believed that in a few days, Lu Bu's deeds of punishing evil officials and personally distributing food to the people will soon spread throughout Yanzhou. In this way, Lu Bu's prestige will also rise rapidly, the people's will be consolidated, and it will be much easier to govern in the future.
The only thing that made Lu Bu a little annoyed was that the new order had just been implemented, and he dared to be so lazy under his nose, and the situation in other places can be imagined.
went to the barracks, Lu Bu ordered Song Xian, Hou Cheng and other generals, and each led his soldiers to other counties to be responsible for supervision, but there were those who violated the yang and the yin, and they would not be spared.
Back at home, it was already dark at night.
Seeing Lu Bu coming back, Chen Wei stepped forward to report: "My lord, the master of the Zhou family in the east of the city has been waiting for you in the lobby for a long time. β
This head of the Zhou family is the uncle of the county boy.
(Seeing that there are book friends in the book city asking Huang Fujue's question, this author has not forgotten, as for when he will appear again, there is a certain number in the dark.) οΌ
