    "I am different from you. I ascended from the lower realms. I have seen the pain at the bottom, so I will not shout meaningless slogans."

    "I have followed the army along the way, and I have seen the situation in the imperial capital. Ask yourself, in the current situation, how much can you collect next time? Do you have to beat the bones and suck the marrow, and peel the skin again?  Will it be enough?"

    "You are high above, but you impose heavy taxes on the people! My subordinates told me that in the county town of Ding'an, a steamed bun was sold for 30 spirit stones! He, the master of Ding'an, was also killed by the Tang army.  , if he is caught by me, I will definitely let him taste the death penalty!"

    Lu Yu's voice, like thunder from the sky, exploded in everyone's ears.

    This is the result of the blessing of public opinion.

    Lu Yu is now the lord of the people, and every word and deed seems to contain the will of God.  This time Zhang Si

    All the star masters present trembled and did not dare to look directly at Lu Yu.

    A star master bowed his head and said: "My lord loves the people like a son, it is a blessing for the common people in the world. But if the agricultural tax is not collected, I am afraid that it will take a long time, and we will not be able to maintain the daily expenses of the government."

    Lu Yu sneered and said, "If you can't do it, it doesn't mean you can't do it."

    Lu Yu stretched out a finger: "First, tax the temples in various places, and these taxes are used to supplement the daily expenses of the government."

    As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.

    By convention, temples do not need to pay taxes.  &#24378&#29306&#32&#32&#35835&#29306

    These temples are scattered in all directions and have countless believers. Many temples hold a lot of wealth, and the priests of each temple are often extremely rich.

    However, being able to own a temple and be canonized as a god is a very powerful existence.

    Many gods have a complex network of relationships, and even the emperor dare not move them easily, so the local governments dare not touch the interests of the temple at all.

    "However, there are many temples of righteous gods. Once taxes are collected, I am afraid that these temples will be dissatisfied." Xingzhu said.

    Lu Yu said: "No matter who it is, even the righteous gods on the list of gods, they must pay taxes. All living beings are equal. Is he superior to others just because he is a god? Who said that?"

    "The local government needs to check the power of the temple. Any temple that dares to intervene in the government will be severely punished! It should be destroyed, and those who should be severely punished will not be merciful. In addition, officials in charge of all localities are not allowed to worship any temple, and those who violate it will be dismissed and investigated!"

    As soon as this remark came out, it seemed to set off a stormy sea in everyone's mind.

    Lu Yu actually dared to attack the temple, which was simply a treasonous act.

    After the death of Emperor Taigan, the forces of various gods made a comeback, and they have long been different from what they used to be, and have become quite huge forces.

    If it were another official, if he dared to attack the temple, he would definitely die without a burial.

    But Lu Yu is different. He has military power and a more powerful cultivation base. Even if these gods have complaints in their hearts, they probably would not dare to presumptuously in front of Lu Yu.

    What's more, the temple is rich!  make big make owl

    Although these star masters maintain a fear of the temple on weekdays, it is a lie to say that they do not covet their wealth.

    If the temple is really forced to pay taxes, plus the previously missed taxes, it will definitely charge astronomical figures.

    "My lord, if the temple does not obey, what should we do?" asked a star master.

    The temple has its own army and a large number of believers. With the garrison of Xingfu alone, it is not the opponent of the temple at all
