Daming talker

Chapter 5 A Big Pie

The name of this middle-aged official was Zhang Tingyan, and he was a grain secretary in the county government of Wu county. He was also the direct owner of the An Le Tang society, and he was the one who gave the society food.

In the sense of modern people, the word "grain book" sounds like a fool.

But in Daming, the word "grain" in the grain book is not just grain, it refers to money and grain, which is also the name of taxation.

Therefore, the meaning of grain book is the scribe who is responsible for tax collection and has the power to divide the taxation level of the land.

In local government affairs, money and food are the most important.Especially in the south of the Yangtze River, the largest source of income for the imperial court, money and food are the top priority of all work, which is directly related to the eating and drinking of the imperial court and the imperial palace.

It is so important that a grain department can be separated from the households in the sixth house of the county government, which is responsible for the collection of money and grain.

The officials of the grain department are called grain books, and they can definitely be regarded as powerful figures in the county. Among the county government officials, they are considered the top class.

The site of An Le Tang is within the area managed by Zhang Liang Shu.

Sure enough, Zhang Liangshu's treatment was different. After sitting in the chairman's seat, there were two fans around to serve him. They also brought a copper basin to wait for Zhang Liangshu to wash his face and hands.

Lu Yibin, the head of Anle Hall, laughed and said, "Mr. Zhang, look, that He Yitang doesn't take you seriously at all, how dare you be late today!"

Zhang Liangshu put down the towel, and said coldly: "Don't talk about the Heyitang first, let's talk about your Anletang first!

When will you pay the 880 taels of golden flower silver, 720 shi of Caoliang, 84 taels of colored silver, and [-] shi of white grain that you owed last year? "

Lin Tailai, who was preparing to learn knowledge with the five-dollar fan-headed girl, was also slightly distracted and surprised.

The memory of this chapter of grain book is very good, so many subjects can be listed one by one casually, and it can occupy the position of grain book in the county government, it really has a few brushes.

Hall Master Lu's expression suddenly became bitter, "I didn't report the flood last year, so I owed [-] to [-]% more.
Mr. Zhang, you also know that you owe taxes every year anyway, and those who owe you are exhausted. It is so difficult to collect taxes owed in previous years from private households. "

Zhang Liangshu slapped the table and shouted: "I don't care about the tax arrears from previous years, and neither do the county lords! The county lords only need to make up for last year's tax arrears!"

If Lin Tailai hadn't inherited the memories of his original body and had a little understanding of today's taxation knowledge, I'm afraid he wouldn't even be able to understand these few lines of dialogue.

The connotation of "tax arrears every year" is that although Suzhou Prefecture has the highest tax burden in the world, it has also formed a "tax arrears culture" to adjust accordingly, and it is rare for a year to really collect all the taxes.

On average, the Suzhou government basically owes about a quarter of the money and food to the imperial court every year.

Over the years, the more and more you owe, you have become a mentality that you have more debts and no worries about lice and no itching. That's why Hall Master Lu said, "It is as difficult to collect taxes owed in previous years."

However, there is an unspoken rule in the official circles in Suzhou and even in the south of the Yangtze River. If the money and food can be collected to [-]% of the prescribed amount, the local officials can not be punished.

If it can reach [-]%, the magistrate's performance assessment is considered to be qualified; if it can reach [-]% or even fully collected in full, that is excellent!

Suzhou Fucheng is divided into two counties, Wu County in the southwest and Changzhou County in the northeast.

Last year, because of flood reports, Wu County only collected [-]% of the money and food, breaking the [-]% safety line.

Moreover, this arrears occurred during the tenure of the current magistrate, which seriously affected the magistrate's performance appraisal.

Therefore, Zhang Liangshu will say: the county lord does not care about the tax owed in previous years, but only needs to pay last year's tax!

The task was too difficult, Hall Master Lu didn't answer, and just sighed to himself.

Zhang Liangshu pointed to Hall Master Lu and scolded: "This is a task that the county lord has suppressed, so I ask you if you can do it? If you can't do it, replace it!"

Song Quan, the second leader, quickly responded, "It can be done! It can be done! An Le Tang will definitely do its best!"

Zhang Liangshu's face softened slightly, "Don't say I won't give you a chance, if you are capable of doing things, I will consider handing over to An Le Tang to take care of everything next to you!"

When Lin Tailai heard this, he felt that the words and deeds in this chapter of Liangshu were actually closer to the image of the club boss in his perception.

In this era, rural areas are accustomed to using "capital" and "map" to demarcate boundaries, similar to the concept of township and village.

It can be understood that all are townships and pictures are villages.There are also smaller units called Wei, which are similar to production groups.

There are 36 capitals in Wu County, and Zhang Liangshu is in charge of the districts of Yidu, Shishidu, Shisandu, etc., which are the most important grain books.

Another example is the address of Lin Tailai's household registration: Nanzhili, Suzhou Prefecture, Wu County, Shisandu (township), Wutu (village), Luziwei.

The main site of Anletang is the thirteen capitals. In professional terms, the thirteen capitals are "all in one color".

As for Yidu mentioned in Zhangliangshu, just by listening to the serial number, you can know how important the status is!

The capital of Wu County is on the east side of Thirteen Capitals, adjacent to each other across the Grand Canal. The scope is roughly east of the Grand Canal, west of the city wall (Nanhao), and south of Fengtang!

That is to say, Yidu is geographically adjacent to Suzhou City, and the two most prosperous commercial districts, Fengtang and Nanhao, are also within the geographic scope of Yidu. Of course, the commercial districts do not pay agricultural taxes.

This is the reason why Yidu and Shisandu are only separated by a Grand Canal, but one is "Yi" and the other can only be "Thirteen".

If Wu County, which is in the same city as the prefecture and county, is the capital of Suzhou, then the capital of Wu County is the capital of the entire Suzhou Prefecture, the first township!
In fact, speaking with confidence, it is reasonable to say that this is the number one township in the world. No township has a better economic foundation than the capital of Wu County.

According to Lin Tailai's own experience in film reading, the nature of occupying a capital is almost equivalent to the unification of "Yau Tsim Mong" in the Hong Kong film universe.

Obviously, Zhang Liangshu drew a big cake.

Facing the big pie, middle-aged people who have experienced vicissitudes will feel uneasy.

Hall Master Lu and Master Song looked at each other, they were both faintly worried, would Zhang Liangshu be so kind?

When teenagers face big cakes, they often have passionate thoughts.

The pancake smelled too good, Lin Tailai was distracted again, stopped learning knowledge from Wuqian, and fell into fantasy uncontrollably.

If you win the local land in the capital, and then further monopolize Fengtang and Nanhao, two of the world's best commercial and trading centers, it will not be difficult to become the richest man in Ming Dynasty in Jinshan Yinhai.

At that time, with today's social atmosphere of broken etiquette and music, everything will be cleared with gold and silver, and thousands of silver will be thrown down, what else can be done?Fame and fortune are like picking things out of a pocket!

If you can come up with 10 taels, I am afraid that even Emperor Wanli, who is famous for his love of money, can bribe him!Even if 10 taels is not enough, a few 10 taels will definitely work!
For example, if you give Zhu Yijun so much money to buy a champion, see if the surname Zhu will do it?

When the fantasies reached the extreme, Dr. Lin seemed to have entered the sage's time again, and everything became dull.

Because it is too tiring to do the facts step by step, it is easier to retreat.

Isn't it easy to find a way to hype and become famous, and then follow the route of celebrities who don't touch Yang Chunshui?
Let's start with learning knowledge!

Lin Tailai put away his other thoughts and ignored the chores discussed by Zhang Liangshu, Hall Master Lu and Uncle Song.

Then he stretched out his arms, which were strong enough to run a horse, and gently embraced little girl Wuqian, asking in a gentle manner, "Do you understand poetry?"

Many poets' journeys through their predecessors started on such occasions.

Miss Wuqian bowed her head pretending to be shy, then secretly rolled her eyes, and replied, "If this good man wants to talk about poetry, please go to the Eighth Courtyard. What are you doing making fun of the slave's house?"

Eight Great Courtyards?Lin Tailai's eyes lit up, this is the industry knowledge he wants to learn!
Just as he was about to continue his in-depth study, three more people came in suddenly, and the leader shouted hoarsely, "Ah! I'm late!"

You don't need to think about it, you know, this is the arrival of the people from Heyitang.

The leader is probably Wu Yikui, the hall master of Heyi Hall, in his forties, with a thin and long face like a knife, two mustaches, and he walks like an eagle watching a wolf.

After Wu Yikui glanced at the situation for a few times, he suddenly stretched out his hand and pinched the face of the little girl Wuqian beside Lin Tailai.

Then he sneered at Hall Master Lu and said: "Look at you women, has the An Le Hall lost its size?

It's no wonder that the hall master of you is getting worse and worse, even worse than a little boy! "

　Thank you Xiao Jinhua for being the leader!It is also an old friend who tipped a reward in the last book, thank you again!
