There is a Wangfu wife at home

Chapter 133 The lady has the final say.

What, you have to pay taxes for occupying the ditch?

Mrs. Luo has always been stingy with money. If she can get a penny out of other people's hands, she will never take a penny out of her own pocket.

She is killed and unwilling to pay taxes.

Mrs. Luo doesn't care about money, let alone paying taxes.

Luo Feixiang's three brothers are used to taking advantage of it, and they don't want to pay.

But Luo Fucai deliberately asked, "Aunt San, has your family paid taxes for the gutter?"

Old lady Luo didn't speak, she wanted to kick Luo Fucai to death.

Among the surrounding villagers, someone shouted, "She didn't pay taxes!"

Luo Fucai shook his head, "Auntie San, you didn't pay taxes, why are you making trouble here in the ditch?"

"None of your business?" Mrs. Luo couldn't bear it anymore, she jumped up and down and cursed.

"Oh, that's none of your business!" Luo Fucai laughed.

The onlookers also booed and laughed.

The old lady Luo was so angry that she stretched out her hand to beat Luo Fucai, but Luo Fucai was cunning, picked up his robe and ran away.

Everyone laughed even more.

Chun Bao was ignorant, so he smiled and said to Zhong, "Mother, Dad runs so fast."

Zhong's embarrassment.

Chun Ya frowned, "If Dad doesn't run fast, he will be beaten by the third grandma."

Li Jiaoniang raised her eyebrows slightly, she really couldn't be reasonable with a person like Mrs Luo, she should scold her, she should do it.

She was interested in what Li Zheng said just now, so she asked Li Zheng again, "Uncle Li Zheng, what about the tax payment law?"

After paying the tax, it proves that the ditch is temporarily privatized.

Whoever pays the tax belongs to whom has always been this rule.

Li Zheng said again, "Just in time, while everyone is here, Mrs. Luo Cheng asked again, let me tell you about the rules set by the county government."

"Come on, Uncle Lizheng, we are all listening." Someone urged.

Lizheng said, "Everyone who leases the ditches and ponds in the village has to pay taxes. One mu of ponds costs one year, two mus of two, and they are pushed up in turn. The calculation of the ditches is different. The length of a mile is one year. The Jinshui River in front of the village has a wide surface. If it is rented, only one bank is counted. Two miles is also a year.

Li Zheng finished talking about the price, and many people began to discuss it.

"One year's money is a bit expensive. Can the fish and shrimp caught be sold for a year's money?"

"I think so too. I don't rent, I can't afford it."

"I don't want to rent either."

Chunya asked Mrs. Zhong, "Mother, shall we rent it?"

Zhong is in a dilemma, she can't even live in a house for her children, how can she afford to rent it?

When the man comes home, he probably has to ask her for money.

"Let's not rent for now." Zhong shook his head and sighed inwardly.

Chunya glanced at her mother and stopped talking, since mother must have no money.

Only two people said that they wanted to rent a pond in the village to raise fish.

But their family members immediately said, "Even if the fish can be raised, where can they be sold?"

If it cannot be sold, it has become a big problem.

In the end, no one wants to rent a ditch pond.

Li Zheng went on to say, "Whoever wants to rent, please register with me. When the money arrives, the lease will start immediately. After renting, other families will not be able to fish, shrimp and raise ducks in the river section of the rented house. Otherwise, the tenant shall be compensated for the loss.”

"What about carrying water to eat? What about washing vegetables?" A villager asked.

"In this case, you have to ask the tenant whether he agrees or not. He pays the money, and he has the final say." Li Zheng said, "Oh, don't we still have the tight water river? The river is wide and long, and the water is clear. , why bother to wash vegetables and carry water in Xiaoshuigou small pond?"

The villagers started talking again.

The rules are set well, but if you don't make money, you will lose time if you waste your time.

Everyone shook their heads.

Li Jiaoniang was satisfied.

This is the same as the contract system in the modern world.

Capable people, contract a pond, raise fish and shrimp, and when the shrimp is fat and fish are strong, send them to major restaurants, and earn a mid-range car a year.

Li Jiaoniang asked Luo Cheng in a low voice, "Brother Luo Cheng, what do you think? I want to rent a ditch for a year."

Yitong's money is indeed too expensive for a family that only depends on growing crops, but it is not too expensive for someone like her who can find a side job.

Of course Luo Cheng would not object, "I have no objection, you arrange it."

"Then I've made a decision." Li Jiaoniang said with a smile.

"Okay." Luo Cheng nodded.

"I want it!" Li Jiaoniang was the first to raise her hand, "I'll cover the ditch next to my house for two miles, and I'll cover it for one year first. Let Uncle Li register it."

"Okay, I've prepared the account book and the contract here, you just need to press your fingerprints and write the time." Li Zheng said.

Ri was taking out a pen and paper from the rattan box cage he was carrying.

Luo Cheng dragged a small stool, found another piece of wood, and used it as a desk and chair for Lizheng, "Uncle Lizheng, let's write as soon as possible."

"It's fine, it's fine." Li Zheng didn't care, spread out the agreement, and started writing.

He wrote down the address and time, and Li Jiaoniang said the range, "Counting from the stone bridge in front, it's two miles to the north."

She currently has limited money, so she can't contract too much, so she will rent it for a year first.

Lizheng finished writing, and drew a picture in the blank space to indicate the direction.

Li Jiaoniang said in her heart, this Lizheng is really careful in doing things, and if he draws a picture, he won't be afraid of disputes.

"Okay, the lease is ready." Li was showing it to Luo Cheng and Li Jiaoniang.

Neither of them had an opinion.

Then, Li Jiaoniang said, "Uncle Li, the area of ​​our field has also been adjusted. You can measure it and register it together. In case someone always comes to make up your mind."

She glanced at the Luo family, meaning something.

"Yeah, that's fine." Li Zheng nodded, and he called his eldest grandson who came to watch the fun, "Go back and get the tools for measuring the field."

"Okay, grandpa." The ten-year-old boy ran away in a hurry.

Lizheng's house is not too far from Luo Cheng's house.

The boy ran so fast that it took only a bowl of tea for the boy to come back with a wooden tool in the shape of a "six" on his shoulder.

This is called a pace.

In Li Jiaoniang's previous life, she met her at the secretary's house in a village in the countryside. However, with the development of technology, electronic measurement was used instead.

The distance between the two feet of the tool is fixed at three feet.

Li Zheng was holding the tool, and Luo Cheng led Li Zheng into the wasteland to measure the length and width.

The final calculated area is two acres of land.

Li Jiaoniang said, "Uncle Li Zheng, let's do the math, how much tax we have to pay, we will pay it together today."

"Okay." Ri was taking out the abacus from the cage and pulling it up.

Two mu and two subdivided land, the annual tax is two yuan and two hundred yuan, plus the water ditches just rented, Li Jiaoniang went home and took three yuan and two hundred yuan to Lizheng.

Li Zheng counted the money, asked them to press their fingerprints, handed over the land deed to them, and said, "At the end of the year, you have to pay poll tax, house deed tax, and hunting tax. You have to prepare early."

"Understood, Li Zhengbo." Li Jiaoniang said.

She answered easily, but she scolded Emperor Gaozong in her heart, would she have to pay taxes if she gave birth to a child and went hunting?Are you crazy about money?
At the end of the year, there is still half a year to go, she can earn enough money no matter what, let's talk about it then.

Li Zheng looked at everyone, "Luo Cheng's family rented this section of the ditch. At that time, I will mark this section. Everyone is not allowed to fish, shrimp and ducks without permission. There is also this wasteland, which is also opened up by Luo Cheng himself. From then on It is his field. Others have no right to intervene."

Many people congratulated Luo Cheng for having Tian again.

But more people praised Luo Cheng for his hard work.

Li Jiaoniang held two contracts, walked up to Mrs. Luo, smiled slightly and said, "Third Granny, this field has been registered by Li Zhengbo, and we have paid taxes. We have also paid taxes on this ditch. It’s the tax, if you keep making trouble, remember to pay for it.”

The old lady Luo snorted coldly, "It's as if someone cares about it."

"Oh, you're in a big fight today, why are you here?" Li Jiaoniang laughed.

"The one who grabbed the ditch, but ah, I didn't grab it." Some of the onlookers laughed.

The Luo family members were all sullen and wanted to leave, but were stopped again.

The grandpa of the Luo family said, "The old three, are they all clear now? Didn't you drive Luo Cheng away? Why do you always miss that little thing about him?"

"Who cares about it? What are you talking about?" Mrs. Luo grimaced and wanted to leave, not wanting to stay any longer.

"Then, third granny, you can pay me for shrimp and loach, fifteen cents." Chunya stopped old lady Luo.

Mrs. Zhong went to pull Chunya.

Chunya stretched out her hand persistently.

"I'll pay you a claw!" Mrs. Luo pushed Chunya away.

Mrs. Zhong hurriedly said, "Auntie San, you can scold Chunya, but you can't push her."

Li Jiaoniang pulled Chunya up, and said with a sneer, "The third grandma dares to bully a child, bully our poor ones, if you have the ability, beat up the second boy of the Song family!"

The second son of the Song family was the one who made Chen Yinhua, the granddaughter of Mrs. Luo, pregnant, but then abandoned Chen Yinhua, and now works in the county government.

When the second boy of the Song family was mentioned, Mrs. Luo's arrogance immediately shrank a bit.

Li Jiaoniang laughed, "If you always don't pay Chunya's fifteen cents, I'll ask the second son of the Song family to ask for it. He's a fast catcher, so he must get it."
