God-level Consort of the Tang Dynasty

Someone vomited on the spot.

Hou Yi was very embarrassed.

At this time, Du He and Ma Zhou went back and forth, each holding a grilled fish, which was golden in color and fragrant, and walked towards this side while eating.

Hou Yi and others looked at it, and then looked at the porridge in the bowl, and they felt like dying.

Is this still a human life?

too difficult!

Du He came over, glanced at the thing in the pot that couldn't be called porridge, his expression sank, and he asked, "Who cooked it?"

Everyone looked at Hou Yi.

Du He gave Hou Yi a cold look: "Young Master Hou, is this what you did? Do you know that there are still tens of thousands of people in Hu County who can't afford to eat? People who haven’t eaten for two or three days, you just wasted so much rice, enough for fifty people to live for a day, you are not just wasting, you are killing, because you wasted so much rice, you may cause fifty people to die, Do you understand?"

Hou Yi lowered his head in shame.

The others quit, accusing Du He one after another and excused Hou Yi.

Du He turned around and glanced around: "Shut up, a bunch of guys who can't even cook porridge, what qualifications do they have to come to Hu County? Liquidated damages, get out of here!"

Du He thought about it.

One person is ten thousand consistent.

Twelve people, but that's 12 guan!

These guys are either rich or expensive, and it is not difficult for each of them to spend [-] guan.

In this way, not to mention feeding tens of thousands of people, it is not a problem to renovate Hu County.

Du He said coldly: "Remember what my young master said just now. This is Hu County, not Chang'an. I am the county magistrate of Hu County. I have the final say... Either be obedient and work and eat, or go back to Chang'an quickly. Hu county does not support idlers! You have wasted so much rice, you should have been hungry for two days, but I am merciful, let you eat porridge first, and start working from tomorrow!"

With that said, Du He took the half-eaten grilled fish and left.

Then someone brought a bucket of gruel.

Originally, the porridge, which everyone would not have looked at before, was delicious compared to the porridge cooked by Hou Yi in a hungry state, and everyone buried their heads in eating it.

……

At the same time, in the county government office, on the main hall, stacks of thick paper have already been printed, and the other side must be neatly arranged.

This is exactly the content of the three chapters of the agreement between Du He and everyone in Hu County.

First, Hu County does not support idlers, and everyone can only eat if they work.

Second, within one year from now, the people will be exempted from all taxes.

Third, follow the rules.

The three simple points are still written in the vernacular.

These Duhes were written deliberately for the common people, not for the gentry.

Du He said: "Ever since I entered Hu County, I felt that the people in the whole Hu County have a great resistance to the government, and even hate it very much. This is the evil fruit planted by Qiu Wanjia and his gang for more than ten years Ah, I have completely ruined the trust of the people in the government. What we need to do now is to establish the prestige of the government as soon as possible. Only when the people convince us can we accomplish anything, otherwise, everything will be empty talk..."

Ma Zhou and the others nodded.

Du He waved his hand: "Post them all out, it may not be effective for the time being, but there is no rush!"

Lu Yuan asked: "Master, this tax is stipulated by the imperial court. The tax in Huxian County has to be handed over to the imperial court after the autumn harvest every year. If we exempt the people's tax, what will be handed over at that time? If the court knows about it, we must impeach it again." You do it!"

Du He smiled lightly and said, "It's just taxes. Whoever says they don't collect taxes from the common people will have no taxes."

"what……"

"You'll find out later."

……

Zhang Jian took all the notices in the three chapters of the agreement with him, went to the streets and alleys of Hu County, and began to post them.

All the places where people pass by are covered with notices.

When the common people saw the people in the county government, they hid far away, and even looked sideways.

After Zhang Jian and others left, everyone gathered around in twos and threes.

It's a pity that most of the people are illiterate and cannot understand what is written on it. On the contrary, they can see that this notice is different from the previous notices. The previous notices are densely packed with words, like ants, but this notice has only Just a few words.

"What is this? It won't be tax again, right?"

"It was a road tax before. I don't know what to pay this time. Our family doesn't even have land, alas!"

Everyone thought it was time to pay taxes again.

When Qiu Wanjia was in power, there were new items to pay taxes every three days, and everyone was used to it.

At this time, an old man came over, took a look, and suddenly said in surprise: "Don't worry, everyone, this is not paying taxes, this is the new county magistrate's agreement with everyone."

"Three chapters of the agreement? When Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, entered the customs, he made an agreement with the people. The murderer died, and the wounding and theft were punished. I wonder what the content of the three chapters of the agreement is for this new county magistrate?" someone asked with concern.

The old man said: "First, Hu county does not support idlers, only work can have food."

Everyone is at a loss!

What does this say?

The old man said: "Secondly, within one year from now on, the people will be exempted from all taxes."

Before the old man finished talking about the third point, everyone was blown away.

……

Chapter 677 Temporary change of mind

"Is it really exempt from taxes for a year?"

"Is there such a good thing in the world?"

"is this real?"

Everyone's tone was full of incredible.

Then, someone started to shout.
