Wei and Jin Cooks

  Chapter 704 Acting

good!

  Zhao Hanzhang just wants to win with the hearts of the people.

  Born in New China, grew up under the red flag, and grew up accepting socialist values, can Zhao Hanzhang take the route of exploiting the people to satisfy his selfish desires?

   That is of course impossible.

   She is a good person!

   Well, yes, she is a nice person.

  So for the future, she already has a basic blueprint.

  Zhao Ming and the others listened to her vision for the future, which was actually equivalent to how she would become the emperor and what kind of country she would build after conquering the whole world.

   Take a closer look at the major forces, each with its own shortcomings. There are only two shortcomings that can be seen on their side. One, Zhao Hanzhang is a girl; two, they are poor.

  The first shortcoming, in the eyes of Ji Yuan and the others, is no longer enough to be called a shortcoming. In today's world, who can be an enemy of her, who would dare to underestimate her just because she is a woman?

  Who would give up choosing her because she is a woman?

  The only downside is being poor.

   But if we take a long-term view, as Zhao Hanzhang said, it is worthwhile to be poor now in the next few decades.

  Ming took a look at Zhao Hanzhang. Since the lord is willing to suffer from poverty and live frugally, as an upright and ambitious staff member, he can only be happy.

   This barbecue lasted until late at night, and they didn't disperse until the clapper was knocked on the third watch outside.

  Fu Tinghan was so sleepy that his eyes were almost closed, but the other four were still very excited.

  After walking out of the open room, the cold wind of early winter blew, and Fu Tinghan barely opened his eyes.

  Zhao Ming turned his head and said to Zhao Hanzhang: "I will be seen by people tomorrow, and the battle will be settled quickly."

Zhao Hanzhang responded, and when he left, he immediately turned his head and called out to Tinghe and Fu An who were dozing off at the base of the wall, "Get up early tomorrow, and take someone to replace the cups, porcelain, and everything that is convenient to smash with cheap ones." goods."

   Ting He: "Huh?"

  Fu An has already responded: "Yes."

  Ting He turned her head to look at him, and saw that his eyes were still half closed, so she knew that he was out of his mind.

  Zhao Hanzhang has said: "If the cheap porcelain is not enough, then temporarily replace it with tiles."

  Fu Tinghan was refreshed by the cold wind, and whispered: "Is it too shabby, would you be even more unhappy if Uncle Ming smashed it?"

  Ming Yu looked at him in surprise, "Master Fu is listening all the time, I thought you were asleep."

  Fu Tinghan said: "I didn't fall asleep, just very sleepy."

  Although he didn't participate in the conversation, he still heard and remembered everything they said.

  Zhao Hanzhang said: "Just to let people listen to it, who will show them the fragments?"

  Ji Yuan felt that she was too stingy, and said: "Girl, even if we are poor, we have to be poor and have ambition. Ting He, tomorrow we can replace the porcelain that Zhao Junshou and the girl can touch with second-class ones."

  Ji Yuan taught her experience, "You don't have to smash all the porcelain, you can also smash the desk, just make a noise so that the people in front can hear it, the desk can continue to be used even if it is scratched, and it is not easy to break."

  Zhao Hanzhang felt that what he said made sense, so he asked He to do what Ji Yuan said, and then everyone went back to their respective rooms to sleep.

  This is already "tomorrow".

  Zhao Song and Zhao Hu knew nothing. When they woke up, the two brothers went to the flower hall to drink tea and talk to Zhao Ming by the way.

  Zhao Song has not responded yet, Zhao Hu frowned first, he looked down at the teacup in his hand, looked at it for a moment, and said: "Why did the teacup in the flower hall change? This color..."

  Zhao Hu looked disgusted, "The color is not good, and the wall of the cup is not smooth enough, what's the matter, what about the previous tea cup?"

  Zhao Ming took a sip of tea expressionlessly, raised his head and said to the two of them, "Father, didn't you say you wanted to visit Taixue? Why don't you let Uncle Qi accompany you there?"

  Zhao Hu subconsciously wanted to refuse, but Zhao Ming had already looked at him and said, "How long has it been since Uncle Qi saw Zheng Er?"

  Zhao Hu swallowed his words, he hadn't seen Zheng'er for a long time, it's not bad to take advantage of this time to see the child.

  Usually, Zhao Hu would not go to Taixue, and if he did, he would probably be angry with Zhao Cheng, but this time with Zhao Song here, Zhao Cheng would not dare to disobey him.

  Zhao Hu changed his mind and responded.

  As soon as Zhao Hu and Zhao Song left, Zhao Ming started his performance.

  The officials who came to work in Zhao's house today were surprised to find Zhao Ming, and then listened to Zhao Ming's angry remonstrance.

  They didn't want to listen in, but Shijun's office was in the next yard, and Zhao Ming was so angry that his voice was so loud that it was difficult for them to pretend they couldn't hear him.

Although not every sentence can be heard clearly, but you can still get the general idea by gathering together. Zhao Ming should know that not long ago, some nobles in Luoyang fled because they couldn't bear the tax, and there were also scholars in Yuzhou who were strict with Zhao Hanzhang. There are opinions on taxation.

  For the common people, Zhao Hanzhang's taxes are not heavy at all, which can be regarded as light and light, but for the gentry who have always been treated preferentially, her taxes are very unfriendly.

  Especially the county governments are very strict in checking taxes.

  In the past, even if there were no high-ranking officials in the family who could be exempted from taxes, they could still use other relationships to hide some acres and population to avoid taxation.

  But since Zhao Hanzhang became the master of Yuzhou, they have lost this convenience.

  Even the hidden land and population of the Seventh Grandfather of the Zhao family have been found out, and taxes have been paid according to the law. Could it be that they can still have more face than Zhao Hu?

  Everyone is enduring Zhao Hanzhang.

  But according to what Zhao Ming said, some scholars in Yuzhou didn't intend to bear it any longer.

   And Zhao Ming also thinks that the taxation system should be changed, otherwise the tax will be paid according to the registered acres, and the burden on some families will be too heavy.

  Someone pricked up their ears to listen there, and heard the sound of cups smashing to the ground, and could not help but whisper: "You seem to be angry."

   "Is the Governor Zhao getting angry?"

   "Didn't the envoy in the county government say that taxes would be changed? Why haven't we heard anything about it?"

   "I heard that it is because I am too poor. If I change it, I will become even poorer, and my salary will not be paid out by then."

  The voice was a bit familiar. Everyone looked back and saw that it was Zhao Kuan. They were startled and immediately stood up straight.

   Seeing their worried and frightened faces, Zhao Kuan sighed, leaned against the wall and listened, and asked, "Where is the noise?"

Seeing that Zhao Kuan didn't reprimand them, the two of them leaned back and discussed in a low voice: "The governor of Zhao has already mentioned the care of the nobles in Yuzhou when Mr. Zhao was alive. County magistrate Zhao, do you think the governor of Zhao can persuade Mr. Zhao to move?" ?"

  That must be possible, there is no need for Uncle Ming to persuade, Zhao Shijun will persuade himself, otherwise why did he come to Zhao's house so early in the morning?

   It’s not because I received Zhao Hanzhang’s letter early in the morning.

He sighed in his heart, but his face showed a look of embarrassment. He shook his head and sighed: "I don't know, the envoy is willing to change the tax in his heart, but everyone's life is difficult, especially I don't know if there will be war next year. There are so many people to support, so There is a lot of money and food needed, and if taxes are reduced here, life will be even more difficult.”

"that's true."

Good night
