Chapter 244 Resist law enforcement, die

In history, almost all the reformers ended up miserable.

Che Cie, Ling Chi, and Zhu Clan are all counterattacks by people whose interests have been violated in the process of political reform.

And these people often hold great power and huge wealth.

After all, every reform and reform is actually a means of redistribution of wealth.

The main infringement is the interests of those landlords and the aristocratic class.

Their counterattacks are often more powerful than ordinary people.

But in the ordinary history, they can rely on their own power, collusion, oppress the king, and prevent the progress of the reform.

But in today's Qing Dynasty, Li Chengqian is a great master, even the strongest among the great masters, and one person can reach thousands of troops.

Thousands of mighty forces gather in one body.

There is no fear of counterattack and resistance from any side at all.

In the final analysis, no matter what the conspiracy or scheme is, if you want to truly resist the New Deal, the only way to go is the ultimate rebellion.

Can rebel?

Even if they gather tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of troops, who can kill Li Chengqian who entered the palace in a day and forced Emperor Qing to abdicate?
Even now in this capital, even if everyone joins together, it is afraid that they will not be able to pull together an army of over [-].

Those so-called nobles may find it difficult to compete with the power of the Overwatch Council.

Simply put, resistance is a dead end.

There is no other possibility.

Especially the top group of nobles, they can see this more clearly.

There is a choice between paying most of the wealth, and killing the whole family, but anyone with some sense will probably choose the former.

Therefore, before the three-day deadline, people came to the door one after another to go to the tax bureau for property inspection and tax payment.

Countless wealth and goods flowed in from all over the capital, attracting countless people to watch curiously.

Outside the gate of the tax bureau, there are even more people.

Looking at the weeping and lifeless faces of those nobles who were once out of reach, the common people have no sympathy at all.

Because all the tax details are clearly posted outside the gate of the tax bureau.

There are also special officials to give lectures.

That huge and terrifying wealth is simply shocking.

That is wealth that countless people could not earn through hard work for hundreds of years.

And after the top group of nobles chose to compromise, countless people with different thoughts in business and politics had to suppress their treacherous thoughts and went to pay taxes honestly.

Of course, there are also some people who do not intend to cooperate.

Some people wanted to escape from the capital overnight with wealth. However, when the population and fields were checked, these people had already been on the list of the Overwatch Council.

Want to leave Kyoto?It can only be said to be whimsical.

Some people turned a blind eye and waited for possible variables.

But until the three-day deadline came, there were no changes.

In the tax bureau, Zhang Juzheng sat at the first place, and closed the file on the table with a calm expression.

"Hai Rui, be sure to count the tax money, collect it into the treasury, and report it to Prime Minister Lin in time."

Below, a middle-aged man with a clear face and rather cold voice should say yes.

Zhang Juzheng nodded slightly, and then his face showed a bit of coldness.

"In addition, inform Dean Chen that you can do it."

Now, it is impossible for those who are still stubborn to show any mercy.

The establishment of the tax bureau naturally has corresponding tax laws.

And quite harsh.

According to the amount of tax owed, exile, prison, house raid, death, and family extermination vary.

No one can get away with it.

Hai Rui responded coldly and hurriedly retreated.

Even if he was reincarnated as a human being, he would never have the slightest affection for these wealthy families.

Opposite the Taxation Bureau, among the Price Supervision and Administration Bureau, Lu Buwei sits at the top.

Countless files were piled up on the desk in front of him.

Down below, Fan Li and Shen Wanqian were also too busy to touch the ground.

Such a big fight, a large amount of money flowing into the treasury, it is naturally impossible that it will not have the slightest impact on the people.

In particular, those nobles have almost mastered the business of all walks of life.

It can easily set off a terrible storm among the people.

However, under the control of Lu Buwei, Fan Li and others, prices in the entire capital appear to be extremely stable.

After all, the Price Supervision Administration may seem inconspicuous, but it has extremely high authority.

With one order, countless money in the national treasury and countless materials accumulated by the court can be used.

It can be said that without the Price Supervision and Administration Bureau, even though the final result may not change, the turmoil caused during the process may be extremely terrifying.

……

Overwatch Council, Chen Pingping soon received a letter from the tax bureau.

He is still sitting in the wheelchair he used to be, even though his legs and feet have recovered.

After all, Ye Qingmei built this wheelchair for him.

It was his only thought now.

As for the truth about Ye Qingmei's death, Li Chengqian had already promised him that after the capital was moved, the truth of what happened back then would be revealed.

Therefore, he is probably the one who is most enthusiastic about moving the capital.

At this moment, seeing the letter from the tax bureau, he couldn't help but sigh softly: "Your Majesty is so bold, and the capital is still stable as before. These people have contributed a lot."

Beside him, Yan Ruohai was also somewhat amazed.

"I've ordered people to investigate. Although these people are all from the capital, they didn't have such talent at all in the past. I didn't expect that the two yamen that His Majesty seemed to form casually had such extraordinary talents."

Chen Pingping narrowed her eyes for a moment. As an intelligence leader all over the country, he could naturally find that those under Li Chengqian were a bit too monstrous.

This His Majesty is probably more mysterious than anyone imagined.

However, he didn't intend to delve into it, at least, everything today is developing in a better direction.

No matter what kind of secrets are hidden behind Li Chengqian, it is no longer important now, nor is it something he needs to consider.

Pressing the emotion in his heart, a gloomy look appeared on his expression.

"There are always some things that don't know how to live or die. If you don't see the coffin, tell Fujiko Kyo so that his people can do it."

"Yes!"

……

Soon, hundreds of secret agents led by each, and dozens of soldiers from the Five Cities Army and Masi arrested people wantonly in the capital.

Someone stood outside the magnificent gate, roaring loudly.

"Invasion of private houses, but there is still a king's law? Do you know who I am? Hurry up and retreat!"

However, what greeted him was an oncoming knife.

Stepping on this person's body, the visitor was indifferent.

"Those who resist law enforcement, die!"

The blood and howling made Kyoto look extraordinarily violent on this day.

Countless people shut their doors and windows tightly, panicking.
