to treat me wholeheartedly"Li Chen's words froze the charming smile on Zhao Rui's face, and her eyes flustered, she said, "your Highness, my concubine must be wholeheartedly devoted to you. I don't u...Chapter 427 exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes

"this lord, it is not that we do not pay taxes, but that taxes are too much and too harsh. We fishermen depend on heaven for a living, and it is common for us fishermen to die at sea. It can be said that we put our heads on our belts to earn something to eat, but when we get off the boat, the government collects boat tax and returns from fishing. No matter what the harvest is, we have to collect 30% fishing tax. When we get home, we have to pay regular money every month. There is also a poll tax every year. "

"even so, we gritted our teeth and barely supported, but before the end of this year's annual leave, these official errands came to collect a tax. Some time ago, my 80-year-old mother in my family was sick. I killed the only chicken in my family and asked me to replenish my health. Half of these official jobs have to be divided. How can people live with such exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes"

as soon as these words were uttered, the fishermen were so angry that they all pointed at the officials and shouted and scolded.

and Su Jinpa, who came out after listening to the truth, suddenly looked cold and looked at the official chauffeur.

next to Sanbao immediately reprimanded: "what is the noise" Silence! "

exorbitant taxes are fiercer than tigers. Before most troubled times began, natural disasters followed local exorbitant taxes one after another.

on the one hand, the common people have no harvest and do not have enough to eat, and on the other hand, they have to be heavily taxed by the government. This is the basic logic of officials forcing the people to revolt.

most of the time, the court is well aware of this, so every disaster year, it will reduce taxes, that is, the court ordered exemption from taxes, but local enforcement is not carried out, how to implement, is another matter.

Li Chen is not surprised by this.

but since it happened under his nose, he had to deal with it.

"is it just you, or is it the whole of Weihaiwei" Li Chen asked.

(adsbygoogle = indo.adsbygoogle | | []). Ush ({});

the leader replied, "this is the case with Weihaiwei, but there are not so many miscellaneous taxes and heavy taxes in the capital of Laizhou and Dengzhou next door, and those of us who have the ability have all gone next door, leaving only those of us who are old and young, reluctant to leave our ancestral land, and those who have gone to the state capital next door to stay here."

"good."

Li Chen nodded and said, "I will intervene in Wei Haiwei's exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and there will be a result to inform the people of the city these days."

"but today you fight and fight, but you can't stop fighting because there is a reason, but the Empire has the law and talks about it on a case-by-case basis."

"each of you present will be held for three days to set an example. Apart from that, you will not be punished or fined. Will you be obedient"

the man was stupefied for a moment and said hurriedly, "this is already a great tolerance. We are not unruly people, so we are naturally convinced that we are willing to do so, but can we seriously solve the problem of exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes" This is the order of the magistrate of Wei Haiwei. "

Li Chen lost his hand and said, "I'm from the capital. Am I the official of the capital or the magistrate of Wei Haiwei"

such a simple and rough comparison, let these people immediately have a very clear understanding.

the man grinned and immediately took the crowd to kowtow to Li Chen and said, "if his Lordship can really solve this matter for us, 320,000 people, young and old, in the counties, towns and villages under the jurisdiction of Weihaiwei will kowtow and burn incense to the master every day!"

is Li Chen, who was delighted to hear that.

"come on, go and serve your sentence, but don't make trouble again, otherwise it will be severely punished."n asked the teacher to open the back door for him to find a shortcut to his official career, which he most spurned before.but now that he has sacrificed so much, Su Jinpa doesn't even want to see hims...
