Not long after, Yan Wei came over with a patrol of the Dry Tax Division.

Zhu Cihong pointed to Liu Yongquan, who was kneeling on the ground with a pale face, and the others said: "These bandits are not respectful of the will, I am afraid that they intend to rebel, and they will all be taken down." ”

Yan Wei tensed all over his body and said, "Yes, my lord!" ”

Afterwards, Zhu Cihong looked at Lao Seventeen again, pointed to the door wall of the Zhumu Draw Bureau, and said: "There is also this Bamboo and Wood Draw Branch, which is obviously colluded with those bandits." Break in, and seize all people and things, and not let a trace be missed. ”

When the old seventeen heard this, he immediately responded solemnly, "Yes, my lord!" ”

Just as Zhu Cihong's words fell, a heavy sound like a sandbag falling suddenly sounded in the wall of the bamboo and wood pumping sub-station.

After a while, I saw an official with a few people open the gate, knelt on the ground and howled like a pig: "My lord! The villain is wronged, and there is no anti-thief in our bamboo and wood drawing bureau. It's all at the behest of that Liu Pei! ”

Several other officials also cried and shouted to their mothers: "It's all Liu Pei's order, we are wronged!" ”

As soon as the shouts of these officials sounded, Liu Pei's strong figure also knelt on the ground, and the hat on his head had long been lost somewhere, and he kowtowed vigorously: "My lord's life, my lord's life!" It's all at the behest of Chu Lushan, and the petty officials will never dare to resist the decree and be disrespectful! ”

"Hehe......" In the corner, Chu Lushan looked at this scene, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he sat on the ground dejectedly: "If you want to kill or chop, listen to it!" ”

Zhu Cihong looked at the owner of a merchant who was staring at the Zhumu Draw Bureau from a distance and did not dare to approach, frowned and snorted coldly: "Close the door of the Bamboo and Wood Draw Branch, don't be embarrassed at this time!" ”

"And! Open the water gate. Yan Wei, inform your family and get ready to work! ”

If the family has to work, it is natural to collect taxes.

Yan Wei received the order and answered with a cheerful shout.

Naturally, some of the others heard it clearly, and heard Zhu Cihong's order to open the water gate.

Suddenly, I don't know who got up and shouted: "Lord Qin Xia is wise! ”

"We will definitely abide by the law and pay taxes! Lord Qin is wise, and the prince is all generations! ”

"Your Excellency is wise......"

When Zhu Cihong heard this, he turned around, looked at the owner of a merchant ship, and said, "Then the official is not polite." Let's line up and get ready to pay! ”

Hou Fangyu listened to Zhu Cihong's words, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

Soon, as he expected. When the shipowners heard this, they were not disgusted at all, and cheered one after another.

If you can do things with money, it means that you can cross the canal!

Not long after, when Lao Seventeen rushed into the Zhumu Draw Bureau with the Jiading team. A squeaky sound rang out.

It's the sound of the water gate opening.

"Lord Qin, Marquis Wandai!"

"Your Excellency is wise!"

"Lord Qingtian!"

The cheers became even louder.

The crowd went to the small boats parked on the edge of the canal, began to return to the fleet, and began to slowly enter under the guidance of the patrol and the scribe of the tax division in turn.

At the same time, Sheng Zhongquan, the governor of Linqing Prefecture, hurriedly brought the officials over to maintain order, and gave Zhu Cihong a polite compliment. For Sheng Zhongquan, who was belated, Zhu Cihong didn't have a good face. In addition to handing Chu Lushan over to the custody of the government office, Liu Pei, Liu Yongquan and others were detained in the cell of the tax division on the charge of resisting the decree.

In this regard, Sheng Zhongquan didn't say much, but just invited Zhu Cihong to dinner. But Zhu Cihong was not interested in this.

It was long overdue for him to return to the great business of collecting money from the tax division.

It's just that it's sunset and dusk at this moment, and it's not early. Although the tax division worked overtime for another hour, when the night ended, the great business of collecting money still ended in a sound of gold.

For the sound of the gold that means the end of work, the tax clerk not only does not feel tired after half a day's hard work, but has a sense of unfinished.

There is nothing to eat and take a card, although it makes a cadre feel constrained, but he is also much brisker to work, and he doesn't have to worry about being caught by Zhu Cihong, the living king of Hades, let alone care about any empty politeness.

In this way, there is usually only enough time to deal with the tax of one ship, but today I have already got the fifth ship.

If such an efficient work continues, it is natural that the whole tax division will run at a high speed. As for the result, it was naturally the first box of broken silver in the public court to be carried into the treasury. The Lifu who carried the treasury silver alone changed three times.

Such a gratifying result made all the tax collectors excited when they saw it.

Because, Zhu Cihong had already issued it explicitly before. After three days, everyone will be given a salary increase depending on the results of the new policy of the tax department!

Not only that, but in the internal regulations of the tax division, behind a pile of punishment regulations, a pile of reward entries was put on the ground with great fanfare. One by one, all of them can legally and reasonably increase the income of the officials.

In addition to the ten taels of food and silver a year, ordinary officials also have various awards. For example, as long as you work for four hours a day, you can be considered a full attendance for one day, and you will be able to work for 25 days in a month, and you will be rewarded with a full attendance award of eight dollars of silver in January.

If the group to which the official belongs does not complain for ten years, and if there are violations such as eating and taking cards, everyone can get one or two pieces of silver.

If there is no major fault in the year, the food and silver can still rise by one level, and you can get an extra one or two silver every month. You know, it's something for everyone. In the past, no matter how popular the tax division was, only those powerful people could get the benefits.

In addition, if the tax money recorded in the accounts this month can finally exceed the target set by Zhu Cihong, 20,000 taels. All of everyone's income in a month has been doubled! An ordinary official can get a legal income at most, and at most more than thirty taels a year, which is enough to maintain a middle-class family.

You know, this is a job that can be done for a lifetime and ensure income in drought and flood!

Therefore, when Zhu Cihong returned to the tax division again, what he saw was a hot scene.

After passing through the atrium, I went back to the inner hall. Zhu Cihong soon saw Chang Zhilang, who rushed to hear the news.

Chang Zhilang is in charge of the work of the sub-supervisor of the Linqing Tax Department of the Guozijian. Among them, although the sub-supervisor of the tax department was approved by the imperial court, it would take some time for the Guozijian to coordinate a few doctors to come over as teachers, and the property for building the house also needed to be prepared, so the construction had not yet been carried out. The main work of the tax department in the near future is obviously to help Zhu Cihong follow up on the issue of tax rate reform.

There was no nonsense, after Zhu Cihong nodded to Chang Zhilang, Chang Zhilang began to report his work: "Today, the commercial tax collected by the new tax rate method is 2,329 24 yuan more than when the 30 tax was 1, an increase of 372 percent according to the rate. My lord...... We've sent it! ”
