An old farmer couple was working on the ridge of the field.

"This father-in-law."

Li Chen got off the horse, stood by the edge of the field and pointed at the sweet potato seedlings in the field, and asked knowingly: "What are you planting in this field?"

The old man who was bent over and farming with a straw hat stood up, walked over and replied, "It's the sweet potato seedlings."

As he said that, he curled his lips and said, "Isn't it strange that you don't know young babies, and I don't even know the old man. This is what the government requires, saying that as long as each household planted three-quarters of sweet potatoes in their own fields, they could be taxed 10% when they were harvested."

Li Chen smiled, not saying anything.

He naturally knew about such a policy.

In fact, if he had not agreed to it, he would not have dared to propose such a policy if he gave Zheng Baorong ten courage.

"I remember it seems that sweet potatoes that grow three-quarters of the land can be worth 10% of the tax. If you plant half acre, you can not only get 20% of the tax, but also get one less cap tax. This half acre is the most cost-effective, why don't you have more than one more?" Li Chen asked.

Hearing this, the old farmer was happy. He grinned and said, "Are you a young young man from the government? You are quite clear."

Li Chen shook his head and said, "I am not from the government, but I have a few acres of thin land at home, but unfortunately I am not in the capital. I still can't enjoy such a good policy for the time being. But my father also heard from friends in the capital at the beginning of the year, and then he knew something."

The old farmer nodded, without doubting that he was there.

After all, Li Chen is too young.

Such a young man in his early twenties, even if he is from the government, is likely to be just a errand, and he will not be an official.

So he simply opened up and said, "Little baby, you are still young and don't understand the ways inside."

"oh?"

Li Chen raised his eyebrows and said with a questioning look on his face: "What other tricks can be found here? You can tell me about it for the younger generation. It is also good to have some knowledge."

The old farmer obviously liked Li Chen's low attitude. He said in the tone of an old senior: "That's right for the government, but old man, I have one acre of three-cent field, and the old Wu family next door has less than two acres of land. We all planted only sweet potatoes of three-cent field, but in the account book of the government, it was written that both of our families had planted sweet potatoes of five-cent field."

"But there are no sweet potatoes in the land of Wang Yuanwai's house here, but the official booklet says that he has planted several acres of sweet potatoes."

"Young man, do you understand what I mean?"

Li Chen narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "I understand. My father-in-law means that some people are unwilling to grow these sweet potatoes, so they collude with the government, inflate the name, and then use your share to offset his account. He will enjoy the tax reduction policy at that time, and he will not have to bear the risk of losing money if he grows sweet potatoes."

The old farmer grinned and said, "Young people are very transparent."

"This is a fraud!"

Su Jinpa, who had not spoken next to him, couldn't help but speak, "And it's your share. Are you just letting them slaughter?"
