    Hearing someone come in, Dou Jiande raised his head and saw that the person who came was Cao Wangzhu, a citizen of the county. He immediately stood up to greet him.

    "I have seen Wang Mincao."

    "How is Douli Changan?"

    "Hello, little man!"

    King Cao of the People's Republic of China walked into Dou Jiande's home and sat at the head of the family in a grand manner.  The civil servants in a county are not even in the mainstream, they are not even considered officials, they are just officials, but to ordinary people like Dou Jiande, he is already a big shot.  The mincao was in charge of tax collection and corvee work, and was regarded as a powerful official in the county. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was an ancestor to them, the district chiefs.

    Wang Zhu looked at Dou Jiande and said lazily: "Mr. Dou, it's time for you to prepare for this year's taxes. Ming Gong has a destiny. This time, every ding will receive four stones of millet, five feet of cloth, and six pounds of hemp. Now pay it first."  Take the first half, and then hand over the other half when the summer grain comes down.¡±

    Isn't it the life of the people now?

    Dou Jiande was stunned. It was only early spring and February before harvesting grain, but it was a full month earlier than the first harvest last year.

    Dou Jiande said with some embarrassment: "Wang Mincao, didn't you just start paying taxes in early March last year? And this time it's so early, there's half a stone of millet, a foot of cloth, and a pound of hemp more than last year."

    It¡¯s also strange that Dou Jiande can¡¯t speak. As soon as he asked this question, the atmosphere immediately became awkward. Wang Zhu¡¯s face turned as cold as ice as he was laughing at Yan Yan just now.

    Wang Zhu sneered and said: "Mr. Dou, what do you mean, do you suspect that I am cheating or that the Ming Mansion charges you too much? How about I take you to see the Ming Mansion and you talk to him."

    "The villain doesn't dare!"

    Seeing that Wang Zhu was angry, Dou Jiande hurriedly tried to be kind to him.  Who doesn't know that this Wang Zhu is the most cruel and ruthless person, and he will always compare his money with others.  If you piss him off, you won't be able to live well in this whole life.

    Wang Jun let out a cold "hum" and said in a sharp voice: "Chang Dou, don't tell me that you don't know about the war between the imperial court and the Turks last year. With such heavy casualties among the soldiers at the front, you should not pay more taxes to support the imperial court.  Really? The imperial court is conquering the Turks for you, but you are not even willing to part with some food. Do you still have any conscience?"

    Seeing what Dou Jiande wanted to say, Wang Zhu didn't want to talk to him at all. He stretched out his hand to stop Dou Jiande and said: "Mr. Dou, this number is not set by Wang Zhu. How dare you disobey the county's notice? This world is a saint.  Yes, whoever has trouble with the county will have trouble with the saint; whoever has trouble with the saint will not be able to live any longer."

    Dou Jiande was speechless.

    Although Dou Jiande was a farmer, he still knew how much tax he should pay. According to the Sui Dynasty regulations: every Ding had to pay two shi of millet to the state every year for rent; he had to pay two feet of silk, three liang of cotton, or two feet and five feet of cloth, and three liang of hemp.  Jin is a tune; twenty days of corvee service, plus two days in leap years, is a regular service.  If the country does not need him to serve, he can pay the standard of three feet of silk or three feet, seven inches of cloth per day, and pay the full amount for twenty days in lieu of service, which is mediocre.  If the country requires him to serve, he will be exempted from transfer if he serves for twenty-five days every day. If he serves for an additional twenty-five days, he will be exempted from transfer. If he serves for an additional thirty days, he will be exempted from all transfers.  Normally, regular service shall not exceed fifty days.  In the event of serious natural disasters such as floods and droughts, if crops are lost more than four-tenths, rent will be exempted, if crops are lost more than six-tenths, taxes will be exempted, and if crops are lost more than seven-tenths, taxes and servitude will be exempted.

    According to the tax standards of the Sui Dynasty, the lives of ordinary people were relatively easy.

    ¡°But this is not the case with current taxes. The county officially collects taxes four or five times a year, and raises taxes several times every year. It has long exceeded the amount of taxes that should be paid by more than six or seven times.

    ¡°Who would believe me if I said there was no corruption in the county?

    But Dou Jiande watched helplessly as these people continued to squeeze the blood and sweat of the people, but he was powerless.

    Seeing that Dou Jiande was silent, Wang Zhu became very proud.  Aren¡¯t you, Dou Jiande, a person?  You have to obey me if you don't.

    As soon as Wang Zhu became arrogant, he annoyed Liu Heitai who was standing beside him.  He already looked down on Wang Jun, who was the villain. Wang Jun humiliated his brother Dou Jiande in such a way that he was furious.

    Liu Heitai realized that he was going to Fengzhou and was no longer afraid of offending Wang Zhu, so he snorted twice and spit loudly on the ground.

    Wang Zhu didn¡¯t expect that someone would be so disrespectful to him. When he took a look, he turned out to be Liu Heitai, a well-known rogue in the village.

    Wang Zhu said contemptuously: "Who did I think it was? It turns out to be Liu Da, you piece of shit. Why, you got so cowardly that you dared to bare your teeth at me. You are so impatient with life."

    Liu Heitai was not afraid of Wang Jun and retorted: "It's your Aye who wants to beat me."

    Liu Heitai was so bold that he actually spoke back to Wang Jun. Even Wang Jun didn't say anything.?Should come over.

    When Dou Jiande saw Liu Heitai's appearance, he knew something was going to happen. He was afraid that Liu Heitai would suffer a loss, so he quickly grabbed Liu Heitai and pushed him away.  Who are you now?"

    Wang Zhu stopped Dou Jiande, looked at Liu Heitai fiercely and said: "I said someone wanted to go to the Great Wall to eat sand, but I didn't expect it was you Liu Heitai. If I don't let you go to the Great Wall this year, I won't be you.  yeah."

    "I'm going to Fengzhou soon, who are you sending me there?"

    Liu Heitai was also angry. He didn't know what to say, so he unconsciously revealed his trump card.

    Wang Zhu then understood that Liu Heitai was not losing his mind and going crazy today, but had something to rely on.  He walked up to Liu Heitai with a sinister smile on his face, pointed at Liu Heitai's nose and said: "Liu Da, you still want to go to Fengzhou. If you don't pay the taxes and do the hard labor, you can go to Fengzhou somewhere. I see you  Even if I have the life to think about it, I have no life to go to Fengzhou."

    After saying that, Wang Zhu burst into laughter, and the evil sound that filled the room made Liu Heitai and Dou Jiande look at each other.

    Liu Heitai said unconvinced: "I will leave tomorrow. Why do you ask me to pay taxes? If I want to pay taxes, I will pay Fengzhou taxes, and if I serve, I will also serve Fengzhou."

    Wang Zhu looked at Liu Heitai as if he were an idiot, and sneered and said: "Why, just because I am the civil servant of this county, I can say whatever I say. If you want to run away, the monk can't run away from the temple, why don't you still  I have a mother and a younger brother, but if you run away, I will put all these taxes and labor on your mother, and then you can go to the Great Wall and watch your mother eat sand."

    Wang Zhu is also looking for death. Who is Liu Heitai? Such a scoundrel is desperate for his life. How can he use his mother to threaten him?

    Although Liu Heitai messed up a lot on weekdays, he was most filial.  Upon hearing Wang Jun's words, Liu Heitao's veins bulged and his eyes were red. Without thinking about the consequences, he kicked Wang Jun hard in the heart.

    Wang Jun was already small and thin, but Liu Heitai kicked him straight to the wall about ten feet away.  Although Liu Heitao got angry and attacked, his kick could not kill anyone.  Wang Zhu was also unlucky. His head hit a nail on the wall first, and the nail penetrated his bones. He died completely before he could scream.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
