Lin'an and Zhongdu have had major events one after another, but Yang Yan, who is in Yongzhou, naturally has no idea, but he is also very good at this time, because since he killed the giant python, after returning to the village, Yang Yan Yan has been offered by the villagers as a god.

The body of the giant python was also carried back to the village by Qi Dazhu and them, men, women and children pointed around the thick python body, and they discussed one after another. After hearing the news, more than 20 villagers from the surrounding villages who were deceived by this gang of thieves also came to Qijia Village to watch the excitement, and thanked Yang Yan and Xin Huan for their kindness, and thanked them for doing a great harm to the nearby villages, so they almost burned incense and worshipped them, of course, Qi Dazhu and his group of young people who helped them kill the giant python were also regarded as heroes in the village and were warmly welcomed. There are two young men who have not yet decided on a marriage, and the threshold of the family has been kicked through by the matchmaker these days.

The village chief of Qijia Village simply divided the python body equally among each village, and asked them to take it back and eat it themselves, which can be regarded as a relief from hatred, and hung the python's head high for people to watch. As a result, after the python meat was taken back, more and more people came to see it. Yang Yan wanted to leave immediately after taking the horse, but after returning to the village, he was pulled by the villagers, and he couldn't go with Ben.

Qi Dazhu's family respects them like gods, and they must stay in the village for at least ten days before leaving. And Ji Xiaojuan's family even plans to offer them the immortal spirit card, three pillars of incense every morning and evening, and beg for their blessings. I could only hear the cold air coming out of Yang Yan's neck. In the end, the village chief suggested inviting a painter from the city, painting the two of them as door gods, replacing Qin Shubao and Wei Chigong, and pasting them on the doors of each house to avoid disasters and eliminate evil. The villagers agreed, and even people from several nearby villages asked for a copy. When Yang Yan and Xin Huan heard this, they were both shocked and sweated.

In this way, four or five days passed, and every day, the village chief, Lizheng, and Baozheng took turns to set up a banquet to entertain the two of them, and only the two of them were dizzy and dizzy. It's still Ling Xiang's cleverness, he ran away early, and he doesn't have to suffer this crime. Ju said that there were people from other villages lining up to prepare for a banquet for them, and Yang Yan finally made up his mind after hearing this, today is the last day, and he will leave Qijia Village early tomorrow morning. If the villagers still won't let them go, then find a way to escape. For this suggestion, Xin Huan also raised his hands in agreement.

Today's banquet was at the village chief's house again, and the village chief and Baozheng of Qijia Village, Li Zheng, as well as several squires, fathers and elders and Qi Dazhu all came to accompany him. Yang Yan now has a headache when he sees the banquet, and he is about to deal with it, so he explains to them that he will leave tomorrow. At this time, a villager suddenly ran in from outside, came to the village chief and said, "Village chief, the county has sent someone to collect this year's autumn tax, please go and greet it."

The village chief and the people sitting there listened to Ding, their faces were a little unnatural, and the village chief hurriedly got up and said to Yang Yan: "Uncle Wan, it's really unfortunate, the people who collect autumn taxes in the county are here, and we ......."

Yang Yan knew that the Great Song Dynasty implemented two taxes, and collected taxes in summer and autumn. It's October time, and it's time to harvest the autumn tax. However, some people in Qijia Village seem to be nervous when they hear about the autumn tax. However, it is not bad to take this opportunity to exempt this banquet, so he said: "Village chief, you have to pay taxes, don't worry about us."

The village chief was no longer polite when he heard this, and said a few more words of apology, and then went out with the others. Yang Yan and Xin Huan were fine, and they also went out to see the excitement.

There were more than 30 people outside the village, all dressed as official servants, and they were driving a few big cars, dressed as a public person, and were talking to the village chief, looking very arrogant. The village chief smiled and nodded. The villagers opened the village warehouse, took out a large amount of grain, silk cloth and other things, sorted them and put them on the cart under the instructions of the errand officer. Another man took out a large box from the village chief's house, opened it, and saw that it was full of copper coins.

The duke counted these things, frowned, and said, "Village Chief Qi, this number is not right."

Village Chief Qi said with a smile: "Qian Kongmu, what's wrong, didn't you pay so much last year?"

Qian Kongyin was stunned and said, "Last year was the old yellow calendar, don't you know?" This year, Manichaeism was in turmoil, and the court sent troops to recruit and suppress it, and the autumn tax should be increased and consumed for military use. Each stone consumes three buckets. In this way, your village will have to add 1,760 stone meters this year. In addition, this year, Guangxi will also charge an additional monthly pile money, each household three times five hundred yuan, your village has a total of one hundred and three households, that is, three hundred and sixty yuan and five hundred yuan. I'm going to collect them all today, do you think you're going to urge them to pay, or I'm going to hand them over one by one?"

As soon as he finished speaking, one of the villagers said: "We didn't pay the 'general money' and 'Ding salt money' with the scriptures; ,'Ding Juan','Weigh money','Market money','Folded money','Folded cloth money','Move money', why do you need to increase it?"

Another villager said: "If we pay the additional consumption and monthly pile money, how will we spend this winter, there will be too much tax to pay." The other villagers also talked about it, saying that they had to pay too much money and couldn't afford to pay it at all.

When Tie Kongmu heard this, he became angry, and said sharply: "What are you doing?" These are all tax thieves set by the court, do you dare not pay? Are you trying to rebel? Besides, the tax money is used to expropriate Manichaeism, and it is also for your good, if Manichaeism comes that day, your whole village will be killed. Now I have one by one, and I must give them all today." As he spoke, he took out a roster and began to roll call.

Some of the villagers who were ordered had spare money at home, and they had no choice but to take out food and money to hand it over. Some of the families were really poor and couldn't pay them, so the servants broke into their homes like tigers and wolves, rummaging through boxes and cabinets, searching for valuable things to fill up. The adults sighed, and the children were so frightened that they cried "wow, wow". If someone dared to block the fence, then Qian Kongmu glared and said, "What are you doing?" Whoever dares to stop him will be arrested and taken to the county to speak in court." Therefore, no one dared to stop him.

In this way, more than a dozen families were ordered, and two of the villagers were so poor that they could not find anything of value at home, so the servants took out iron chains and locked the head of the household, saying that they were going to be arrested and returned to serve hard labor to pay taxes.

Yang Yan and Xin Huan could see all this clearly, Xin Huan pulled Yang Yan's sleeve and said, "Brother Wan, you can quickly think of a way to help the people in the village, right?"

Yang Yan smiled bitterly, does this little girl really think she can do anything? In the face of the giant python, he could swing his knife and fight it without fear, but in the face of this group of people, Yang Yan was really a little powerless. Because they are the representatives of the Great Song Dynasty, even if they can drive away the tax collectors or kill them all, as long as Qijia Village is still left and the villagers are still there, the county will still send people to continue to collect taxes. Although he carries the token of the Privy Council, he can only ensure that his freedom of movement is not restricted, but he cannot control the local officials. What's more, even if he can manage them, but as Qian Kongmu said, these are taxes set by the court, and no one can reduce or reduce them unless it is an edict issued by the court. For a while, Yang Yan had several thoughts in his mind, but none of them worked.
