Chapter 89 The Great Villain

"Since you have given away a part of the income from corruption, the past will be forgotten. Not everyone is that Hai Rui Hai Gangfeng, who sticks to that little salary and lets his old mother grow vegetables to support the family. Even a catty of pork can become an interesting talk." Lin Pingzhi spoke unskillfully to buy people's hearts: "In addition, there are Hengshan factions in Hengshan City who do not obey the imperial court's order. Those people are superb in martial arts, and you, a weak official, cannot interfere. Your behavior is understandable... You should keep the account book, you just need to pay attention to it in the future."

Master Zhang almost knelt down for Lin Pingzhi, this result was beyond his expectation.

Originally, he had already hidden part of the gold and silver treasures and land deed real estate for his family. He took the initiative to stand up and plead guilty, seeking a leniency to avoid harming his family. All of them were transported to the capital, and they paid the money for the escort out of their own pockets.

Then, Lin Pingzhi solemnly announced one thing: "I am here this time, besides delivering the imperial decree, there is another thing. The Wuyue Sword Sect has a great reputation in the Jianghu, one of them is Liu Zhengfeng of the Hengshan Sect. It is a big event for the court and Jianghu to wash the hands of the golden basin to serve the court, and my master didn't want any accidents to happen...so he came in person."

Now Master Zhang knelt on the ground with a soft knee, and the joy of the rest of his life after the catastrophe was overshadowed by even greater fear. Hengshan City!

"Where is the old man now?" Master Zhang asked Lin Pingzhi tremblingly.

Lin Pingzhi disdainfully saw Mr. Zhang who was intimidated by his master's name: "My master was sleepy on the road and has been lying on the bullock cart to sleep. He should wake up now."

……

The two cards drawn in this world did not bring Yue Si the ability to fly, and this time he had to dispatch a large group of people, so he could only use livestock to travel. He simply entered a dormant state and lay down all the way to Hengshan City.

It's just that when he woke up and sat in the government office in the city, what he saw when he opened his eyes was an unappetizing scene.

"My lord pays my respects."

An official, swollen and swollen from his body, knelt down on the ground, trembling and kowtowing to the impatient Yue Si.

"Stand up and kneel at every turn, what are you talking about!"

In his previous life, besides wedding and funeral worship, Yue Si had also seen a steelworker kneel down when he asked the contractor for bills, and he still wanted to pay back the wages he should have settled, and gave it to his lying in the hospital. Children are used as life-saving money, so I am very disgusted with the fact that people kneel down when they are moved.

Under his influence, people in the tax office hated bowing down.

The official surnamed Zhang got up, bent over and said humbly: "I don't know where the adults can use the small officials."

"I heard that you have a good relationship with Liu Zhengfeng of the Hengshan School?" Yue Si asked.

Mr. Zhang bowed his head and responded: "Yes, yes, then Liu Zhengfeng is a great local gentleman, and the next official should make friends with him, and use his influence to implement the decree."

"That's enough, you go and talk to Liu Zhengfeng, just say I'm here, let our people go to his house to pretend to be servants, to ensure that no one will threaten his family and destroy the loyalty of the people in the rivers and lakes to the court." It’s a big deal.” Yue Si ordered: “Tell him that people in the Jianghu have always looked down on the imperial court. His behavior is an example. What is it to ask for a general? Just receive re-education from my tax office."

Master Zhang agreed without thinking, and then immediately did it.

Anyway, a dead fellow Taoist is not a poor man, so he only needs to notify Liu Zhengfeng of this matter, and he must follow it regardless of whether he agrees or not. This is an order personally issued by the director of the tax collection office. If he refuses to agree, he will have to bear the consequences himself.

But on the way, Mr. Zhang slandered: "Selling officials and nobles, his tax collection is so powerful, if everyone can get an official position by relying on money, why do you want me to wait for scholars to study hard for ten years, and what about the officials? Giving food to one body is a disgrace to gentleness, if this continues, the country will not be a country! I think that the Ming Dynasty will be defeated by this group of rebellious officials and thieves sooner or later."

Yue Si also complained in his heart. Under his intervention, the tax collection office originally wanted to play an "IRS" stalk, but it did not expect its power to expand to a terrifying level, even surpassing Jinyiwei and Dongchang. It has become an existence that people in the Jianghu and civil and military officials are afraid to hear, and it has truly reached the level that these two institutions can do in film and television works and literati novels.

I don't know if there are any righteous men from the rivers and lakes who will assassinate him, the director of the tax collection office?

Aren't characters like the commander of Jinyiwei and the governor of the East Factory who commit all kinds of crimes and have high force are the best candidates for the villains in the eyes of martial arts knights?

"Master..." After Master Zhang left, Lin Pingzhi gave Yue Si a brief account of his encounters along the way, including the wise capture of Tian Boguang, and his encounter with the Huashan Sect.

Regarding this, Yue Si just nodded, not saying yes or no, but when he heard that Lin Pingzhi returned the account book presented by Mr. Zhang on his own initiative, he showed a kind of indignation: "Stupid, how can anyone send the gold and silver in front of me for nothing?" Push it out again!"

"Ah?" Lin Pingzhi didn't understand what Yue Si meant.

Yue Si picked up the Xingmu in front of the hall, broke two pieces, and held them in his left and right hands respectively: "Suppose they are two pieces of gold, tell me, which one of them is despicable and which one is noble?"

"Although you have joined the tax bureau, you don't know how important this organization is to the Ming Dynasty. Those civil servants and gentry transferred all taxes to farmers and small businessmen. What we have to do is to find a way to pay them Part of the tax was collected from them again, and the farmers and small merchants were taxed less."

"The Great Ming Dynasty is already in jeopardy. Only by finding ways to raise money can it continue to live. Only gold and silver are life-saving medicines."

"You are from a rich family, and you are not sensitive to things like money, but do you know that the money he gets in a year is converted into taxes, which can be provided by a few households and a few acres of land?"

"The person surnamed Zhang has already embezzled the money. We can't return it to the farmers and small businessmen, but it can be used for their benefit, such as our activities."

"The expenses along the way we came this time, as well as personnel salaries and weapon expenses, all of which require real money. With the money he contributed, we can make up for this expense and save some orphans. , Is it not good for him to open a few schools?"
