Chapter 2084

Although song Yan didn't show up, the officials who were present didn't know that they could get salaries. Thanks to song adults taking people to copy yuan family castle.

Liangzhou military town.

Xu Xing has learned that song Yan inspected yuan family castle with a lot of food and more than 200000 liang of silver.

For a moment, his eyes were a little red.

So.

Xu Xing called all the generals together to discuss the matter and told his generals about it.

Hearing that the magistrate's Yamen had obtained more than half a million jin of grain and more than 200000 liang of silver, the generals of all sizes were also very angry.

Someone suggested, "general, how many houses should we check?"

"Stupid, if general Ben did this, Su Bingwen must be the first one to join me!" Xu Xing has no good way.

"By what means, they can do the business of family copying and extermination. Why can't we do it?"

The general's unconvinced way.

Xu Xing sneered and said: "because they are officials, we are soldiers! Although the official position of Laozi is the same as that of Su Bingwen, Laozi should be controlled by him. Unless the magistrate has the order, I can mobilize the army. Otherwise, I will transfer the army without permission, and Su Bingwen will dare to join me! "

"Then we can only watch the magistrate's Yamen eat meat. We can't even drink soup?"

There is a way for generals not to be reconciled.

Xu Xingdao: "who said they could eat meat, we didn't even have soup to drink? You sent someone to spread the news immediately, and said that the magistrate's Yamen planned to copy all the fortresses. Most of the reason that song Yan could copy yuan's fortress was because he was caught off guard! As long as those guys are on guard, it's impossible for him to copy other families like the yuan family. As long as they can't chew this hard bone, the magistrate will come to ask us. Then our chance will come! "

Under the deliberate promotion of Xu Xing, within a day, song Yan's plan to copy all the families in Liangzhou mansion spread rapidly. For a while, those families were in danger of themselves, and they all pulled out private soldiers and strengthened their vigilance.

But in the next few days, song Yan didn't have any extra moves.

However, Su Bingwen personally tried the yuan family and convicted them of conspiracy.

This day.

Song Yan once again summoned the officials in the government office.

They were directly assigned tasks to collect taxes from the families who owed the government tax money and grain.

Checking the yuan family not only solved the current dilemma of the prefecture magistrate's Yamen, but also made the prestige of song Yan, the prefecture magistrate, soar. Unlike for the first time, when he heard that he wanted to collect taxes, he looked for various reasons to get rid of it.

But this time, they are more active than one.

An official goes to a family, and is equipped with three captains or yamen servants.

Song Yan asked that they should not only pay the taxes they owed, but also take 10% as interest. The food and silver of the court were not owed in vain. Moreover, they owed for so many years.

That night, all the officials who sent out to collect taxes returned to the city with money and grain, and all the family members escorted the grain carts.

They thought that song Yan would deal with them as they did with yuan family. Unexpectedly, song Yan only collected taxes from them. Although he still collected 10% interest, it was acceptable.

So in a short day, the big tax payers paid the tax money and grain they owed.

Xu Xing, who knew the news, broke a teacup directly. Because his plan of making money failed, song Yan didn't follow the routine at all.

It solved the tax of large households.

Song Yan began to sort out the taxes of ordinary people.

However, instead of sending people to collect taxes, he took people to the countryside to check.

To achieve the golden elixir, he has a mind. He only needs to go to a certain village to know whether they are rich or poor.

During his three-day visit, Zhou Qing visited nearly 100 villages, but found that their life was not easy. It was difficult for their family's food to survive this winter, let alone pay taxes.

Next, he did not visit again.

It's about the idea of shops in the city. As far as he knows, there are hundreds of shops of all sizes in Liangzhou city. However, the annual business tax is only more than two thousand Liang silver.

And it's hard to collect more than two thousand taels of silver.

Zhou Qing finally knew the reason. It turns out that Xu Xing is the most popular business in Liangzhou. Even if it's not him, he will change his ways to become him. Therefore, among hundreds of stores, Xu Xing's stores alone have reached 109.

But Xu Xing is a general who controls 5000 troops. Who dares to collect his taxes?

There are also some traitors who sneak away from the relationship between brother-in-law Liang Yu and Xu Xing. They just need to hang the flag of the military town to avoid paying taxes.

Song Yan looked at the account book, and this year's business tax was collected more than 200 Liang.

First of all, let's talk about the composition and expenses of the magistrate's Yamen.

In Liangzhou Prefecture, there are more than 100 officials of all sizes, including yamen servants and captains. The number is about 260.In addition, there are three hundred city guards.

The city guard was controlled by the magistrate's Yamen, so the salary was also paid by the magistrate's Yamen.

The salary of the three hundred city guard army plus the food needs about four hundred and twenty per month. As for the hundreds of officials in the yamen, the salary is about four hundred and twenty. The salary of Su Bingwen, the magistrate, is twelve Liang per month. The salary of Songyan, the prefecture, is twelve Liang per month. Of course, there is also food.

There are also captains and yamen servants, and their salaries are about five hundred Liang.

Therefore, the monthly expenditure of the magistrate's Yamen has reached about 1500 Liang. There are also those in the military town. They need 15000 Liang a year and 1250 Liang a month. Finally, they are handed over to the court. They need 2000 Liang a year and 50000 Jin of grain.

In this way, the expenditure of the magistrate's Yamen in a month will reach 3000 Liang.

Because Liangzhou is located at the border and often harassed by barbarians, it's good to receive three Chengdu agricultural taxes every year.

Apart from the part paid to the imperial court, even its own expenses cannot be maintained.

It's no wonder that when song Yan came, Su Bingwen threw all the big and small things to him, because there was no way for him to deal with this shabby Yamen.

Although we checked so much grain and silver from the yuan family this time, and collected the tax, silver and tax grain of other large households, this kind of thing can only be one or two, and it has been accumulated for many years.

It's good to receive 100000 Jin of grain and thousands of liang of silver from these large households next year, which is not enough to maintain the operation of the magistrate's Yamen.

Therefore, commercial tax must be collected.

Wei state does not pay much tax on merchants, and divides the shops into three levels: upper, middle and lower.

The inferior shops only have two liang of silver a year.

The medium-sized shops are worth five Liang silver a year.

The best shops pay ten Liang silver a year.

In Liangzhou City, there are 225 inferior shops. If all the shops are collected, the business tax will be 452.

There are 80 medium-sized shops with 400 liang of business tax collected.

Of the 120 best shops, if they could be collected, there would be 1200.

The total business tax should be more than 2200 Liang.

Seeing that the annual pass is near, the business tax has to be collected as soon as possible. Song Yan decides to send someone to count the shops again tomorrow. After all, the shops recorded by yamen were set five years ago.

Over the past five years, these shops have collapsed and expanded.

Therefore, the above records are not enough.

Close the books and song Yan is going back to the inn.

Yes, he has been in Liangzhou city for nearly ten days, but he still lives in the inn.

He walked to the inn without a sedan chair or a horse.

In the middle of the journey, song Yan stepped slightly and shouted, "come out!"

"Lord song is so sensitive that he can find the trace of this seat!"

In a flash, there was a middle-aged man in black.

The other side stood with the hand in the hand. He was very expert. He had no need of white face. His face was very handsome. There was no air leakage from his whole body.

But song Yan still saw through each other's accomplishments at a glance, the middle period of the grand master.

"Are you the leader of the black sky demon sect?"

Song Yan looked at him and asked.

"Yes, this is the seat!" Middle age in black nodded.

"It turned out that it was the Pope who arrived. What's the matter, not only the Pope coming?"

Song Yan's tone is gentle.

"Lord song, how would you like to have a drink?"

The middle-aged man in Black said with a smile.

"Good!"

Song Yan nodded.

Half a quarter of an hour later, in a tavern, song Yan and the leader of Heitian church sat opposite each other.

"To you, Lord song!"

"Good!"

Song Yan nodded, picked up the glass and hit each other, then drank it all.

After a few drinks, the atmosphere between the two sides looks more harmonious.

"Lord song, I have a request."

Suddenly, the black god put down his glass and said.

"Please tell me!" Song Yan nodded.

Black sky teacher said: "before the bad people have offended, I don't know if song adults can give a face, let this seat take her back to a good education!"

Song Yan looked at him and asked with a smile, "with the influence of the black sky demon sect, the leader should know where Li Xin'er is!"

"Yes!"

The other party nodded.

"Now that you know it, why don't you just take her away?" Song Yan asked again.

The leader of Heitian cult said: "to be honest with Lord song, I do have that idea, but I'm more curious about who captured the bad guy easily, which made me teach a lot of good hands to lose!"

"Now? Change your mind! "

"Indeed! After seeing Lord song, I changed my mind! "

"Come, master, I have a toast to you!"

Song Yan raises his glass.

After drinking another glass of wine, song Yan put down his glass and said, "you've made a wise decision. Fortunately, you didn't do that. Otherwise, not only you can't take your apprentice, but even the leader of the church will stay in Liangzhou city as a guest!"Hearing this, the black god suddenly narrowed his eyes, and there was a gleam of pure light. He stared at Song Yan, as if he wanted to see through him. But after a while, he gave up: "Song adult may be right, this seat can't see the cultivation of song adult!"

"Well, that's all for today!" Song Yan got up and said, "I will let Li Xin'er go back!"

"Thank you very much, Lord song!"

The black sky master's grateful boxing.

Song Yan nodded and walked down the restaurant with his hands on his back.

In a moment.

As soon as song Yan stepped into the courtyard behind the inn, little yu'er came up and shouted, "Miss, my uncle is back!"
