During the New Year, there are really a lot of people who go to Ye Xiaotian's mansion, but most of them are during the New Year's Festival, and they come to visit and contact feelings, such as the county gentry, the bureaucrats in the ya, the resident officials, and the cottage chiefs.

Among these people, the tycoon was busy waiting for the children and couldn't go out, and the only people who often came to Ye's house as guests were Su Xuntian, Zhou Bantou, Li Yuncong and others. On this day, Li Yuncong arrived at Ye Mansion again, holding his right arm, and a big bird with gorgeous feathers and colorful feathers on his wrist, swaggering like a gentleman.

Ye Xiaotian couldn't help but smile when he saw it: "Haha, Brother Li drove the eagle and led the dog, and he really had the prestige of the tax ambassador." ”

Li Yuncong's face turned red, and he sneered: "The second master should not make fun of it, this parrot is the filial piety of his subordinates, and he doesn't like to raise birds. ”

Li Yuncong raised his arm as he spoke, and the feathered parrot fluttered its wings and flew up, but Li Yuncong put a silver iron ring on his thumb, and a thin iron chain was tied to the parrot's feet on the ring, and it didn't fly far, and the parrot spread its wings in the air and screamed: "Good official, good official." ”

Ye Xiaotian was stunned, and laughed loudly: "Brother Li has a heart, this parrot, I like it very much!" ”

Li Yuncong is one of Ye Xiaotian's more shrewd subordinates, neither as casual as Su Xuntian, nor as Mu Ne as Zhou Bantou, when he comes to the Ye family, he never comes empty-handed, but it is a gift, it seems to be raw, and the Ye family has a big business, he really has nothing to give. If he doesn't send it, it seems too casual, so every time he comes to the door, he carefully messes with some gadgets.

The maid in front of the hall was overjoyed to see that the bird was beautiful and could speak. Hurriedly stepped forward and took the iron ring from Li Yuncong's hand, Li Yuncong said: "This bird has been trained, and it is not afraid of people, you can take it and settle it!" As he spoke, he pulled the chain, and the parrot flew back, followed the chain, and landed on the arm of the little girl.

Xiao Yahuan happily took away the parrot, Ye Xiaotian invited Li Yuncong to sit down, and asked, "Over there is the tax department." A qiē can be mastered? ”

Li Yuncong bowed and said: "Fortunately, especially around the New Year's Festival, the post road is not busy, and everything is smooth." He cleared his throat and said, "However, there will be a big event in the future, and I am afraid that we must take precautions as soon as possible, otherwise I am afraid that there will be chaos at that time." ”

Li Yuncong, the ambassador of the tax department, was recommended by Ye Xiaotian and was in the officialdom. The referee is to be recorded in the history of the referee, and if something goes wrong, the referee is also held accountable, so he is not a very credible person. Usually officials do not take the recommendation lightly, and it is only natural that the person being recommended is regarded as a person who is recommended by this great favor.

Now that Li Yuncong has just taken office, if something goes wrong. That is, Ye Xiaotian didn't know anyone, so Ye Xiaotian was also very concerned, and he leaned over. made a state of concentration, Li Yuncong "reported" to him, although the county and the tax ambassador have no direct subordinate relationship, and this is not a formal occasion, but to be precise, this is a report.

Of course, the tax department manages not only commercial taxes, but Hu County is really not an important economic pillar except for post roads, especially as a large agricultural country in the feudal era, the proportion of agriculture in the county is very low, but low does not mean no, so this is also part of the responsibility of the tax department.

Before Xu Boyi launched the activity of changing his surname to change his surname, he was picked by Ye Xiaotian, the credit belonged to him, and the responsibility naturally belonged to him, and now in the new year, it is time to fulfill his obligations.

This year's tax collection should be strictly liquidated out of those who have responded to the call of the imperial court and changed their surnames to exempt the taxes, which are to be deducted from the total taxes that should be levied, and at the same time, Huxian County's agriculture is not prosperous, but it is necessary to get relief from the government every year, how to distribute this amount, how much relief money can be obtained from the boss, and whether the families that have been exempted will be relieved? All of these are higher-level problems, and it is indeed not up to Li Yuncong, the tax ambassador, to decide, but he can't ignore it, because once something goes wrong, he will be directly responsible, and even Ye Xiaotian will be affected.

After hearing what he said, Ye Xiaotian said decisively: "Those who have been exempted must also participate in receiving relief. They were exempted because they responded to the call and accepted the customs, which had nothing to do with whether their family was in difficulty or not, and they did not accept relief in advance. As for how much relief can be obtained from Shangfeng and how to distribute it, as soon as the government is opened, this official will immediately discuss with the county lord! ”

Li Yuncong can't be the master of this kind of thing, he came to Ye Xiaotian for help today, and after Ye Xiaotian's words, Li Yuncong was very determined, and after chatting about business, the two talked about some light topics. As a result, I heard a very loud roar, which was the voice of a giant ape.

Ye Xiaotian heard that the voice seemed to come from the courtyard where Yaoyao lived, so he left the seat and hurried to the bottom of the porch, looking curiously into the courtyard where Yaoyao lived. In the distant courtyard, the parrot dragged a chain and flew up and down the courtyard, shouting coquettishly: "Fool! You fool! ”

Thinking that this sentence was also learned from elsewhere, and it may even be the words that the master used to scold it when it first learned the language, it may not understand the meaning of this sentence, but from the tone and demeanor, it can probably understand the occasion when it should be used, and then it is used to scold the giant ape.

The big man roared and cursed like a big man, and from time to time he threw himself into the air, stretching out his huge fan-like palm and slapping at the parrot, but it was like a cannon hitting a mosquito, where could he get to its edge.

This giant ape is huge, invulnerable to knives and guns, rampage in the yard, jump high and low, the lotus tank smashed one, the rockery collapsed a corner, rushed to the corner of the courtyard in anger, pulled out the weeping willow upside down, and the dirt and dirt flew all over the sky, Yaoyao and the two little girls avoided one after another, but Fu Wa'er was not tired of it, and ran around behind the big man who jumped up and down, and seemed to find it extremely interesting.

Ye Xiaotian hurriedly ran into the courtyard with Li Yuncong, and saw that King Kong and the parrot were fighting, only to be stunned, Ye Xiaotian exclaimed in surprise: "What's the matter, how can such a small gadget get into trouble with a big man?" ”

Yao Yao hid behind the pillars under the corridor, poked out his little head, and said aggrievedly: "People don't know. Although the parrot's mouth was a little broken, it was quite cute, but the big man looked at it unpleasantly, and the parrot only took a bite on its head, and it became furious......"

At this time, I heard a boom, and the jumping King Kong fell down and smashed against the wall, crushing all the walls. The parrot dragged the chain and didn't fly high, but King Kong didn't know how to grasp the chain. Besides, with a thin iron chain, its giant palm may not be able to grasp it.

Ye Xiaotian saw that the parrot was flying towards him, so he hurriedly jumped over, grabbed the chain, and dragged the parrot towards him. Li Yuncong saw that the courtyard was full of wolves, and said embarrassedly: "Second master, it's a poor consideration of the humble position, this parrot ......"

Ye Xiaotian shook his head and sighed: "Animals don't understand personnel, what do you have to do with it?" That's it. This broken mouth and the big man don't like each other, so they are kept in my room. ”

At the foot of the mountain, in the house of the county government, Huazhi County listened to the roar of the giant ape on the low mountain gradually subsided. Only then did he continue to talk to Master Bai. "Master Bai, after the Lantern Festival, the government will be opened, and after the yashen, you will go to Tongren Mansion."

Walking next to him was Bai Hongbai's master book. was invited by Huazhi County today, and he knew that something was wrong, as soon as he heard this. Hurriedly caught up with two steps, and humbly asked for advice to Huazhi County: "I don't know what business the eldest lord sent to Tongren Mansion to do?" ”

This Bai Hong was originally the county governor of Jiangpu, and it was a first-class county, and his status was higher than Hua Qingfeng, and now he is in the main book, and he really can put down his body, his figure is slightly owed, and he is very respectful. Probably the setback of the eunuch road hit him really hard, so that his temperament changed.

Huazhi County Fu Xu said: "When the New Year is approaching, the imperial court has allocated a sum of money, and you also know that most of the ground in Guizhou is barren, and it is difficult for the counties to complete the collection of taxes, and they have to accept relief from the imperial court every year." This money is allocated, the wolf has more meat and less meat, if you don't make a move earlier, once you get out of the New Year, and then go to the government office, I am afraid that it will be divided up by other counties and counties, and you have to start early. ”

Bai Hong suddenly said: "Ah! Xia Guan understood, even so, as soon as the Lantern Festival passed, Xia Guan immediately rushed to Tongren. ”

Hua Qingfeng glanced at him, and said, "This is the best!" Bai Zhushu, don't blame the county for not being close to people, and sending you to travel around in the first month is really a last resort. The people of this county are fierce, and they are often in trouble for some relief, and last year, many local people responded to the court's change of customs, and got the exemption of money and grain, so first, the situation is more complicated, and it is not appropriate not to give them relief, but if it is distributed according to the practice of previous years, I am afraid that it has not been vulgar, and the people who have not received benefits before are jealous, and it is inevitable that the rights and wrongs will be worse, if we can ask for more money and food, it will be more secure. ”

Bai Hong came to Huxian to boil his qualifications, not to seek merit, but to seek merit This is his official creed, although Hua Qingfeng is just a homely and faint word, but Bai Hong sensitively noticed that "the people's customs are fierce" and "right and wrong are even worse", Bai Hong immediately nervously asked for advice, as soon as Hua Zhixian said, his heart was half cold.

In other words, the situation of the counties under the jurisdiction of Tongren Mansion is more complicated, most of them are the heads of Tuzhi County, Zhang Zhifu is Tuzhifu, these Tuzhi counties have been inherited from generation to generation, and they have always been his subordinates, and this is the real lineage.

Therefore, the imperial court allocated the relief money to Guizhou Mansion, and Guizhou Mansion allocated relief funds to Tongren Mansion, and Governor Zhang's Mansion has always been able to distribute it according to his real lineage.

In previous years, this has always been the case, but this year's situation is different, last year's Yi vulgar move, the imperial court exempted the money and grain that responded to the Yi vulgar family, so that the self-imposed taxes will be less, if the imperial court allocates too little money, it will inevitably be stretched.

When the time comes, the people will be dissatisfied, and the families who have been exempted will continue to receive relief, and those who have not been exempted will inevitably be unbalanced, and if the salaries of the officials and officials are delayed because of this, the entire yamen will also be dissatisfied, Bai Hong is just a newly appointed official, and he has no prestige in the county, how can he bear so much dissatisfaction.

Bai Hongden became nervous, and quickly shirked and said, "Ahhh Xia Guan never thought that there were so many problems in this, it was related to whether the people of Hu County were stable or not, Xia Guan had just arrived in Hu County, how could he afford such a heavy responsibility, and the county lord must choose another virtuous person. ”

Hua Qingfeng frowned when she heard this, and said embarrassedly: "Bai Zhu, you are the main book, this is your responsibility, if you don't go, who else can the county entrust." Besides, if you go to the government to fight for donations, if your identity is not as good as yours, then there is no hope of success. ”

Who else in Huxian County has a higher status than the white master book? In addition to Huazhi County, there is only Ye Xiancheng, Bai Hong is blessed to his heart, and immediately said: "My lord, the matter of vulgarity was initiated and succeeded by Ye Xiancheng, and Ye Xiancheng is also the protégé of Tongren Zhang Governor's Mansion, so he is the best candidate!" You see......"

Hua Qingfeng glanced at him, and said in her heart: "For Ye Xiaotian's details, you are clear." Hua Qingfeng stroked his beard and hesitated: "What ......about this, this county can go and tell Lord Ye for you, but after all, you should be responsible for this matter, I am afraid that Lord Ye will ......."

Bai Hong immediately said: "Xiaguan will go to Ye Mansion and ask Ye Xiancheng to help Xiaguan with this." This matter is related to the livelihood of the people of Huxian County, and I believe that Ye County will focus on the overall situation. ”

Hua Qingfeng smiled slightly, and said, "Very good!" If Ye County is willing to help you with this, here in this county, it will naturally open the door to convenience. ”
