38. Chapter 38 Butterfly Wings

The butterfly's wings flapped slightly, because of an idea from the young emperor far away in the capital. In the blink of an eye, the small air flow fanned by the butterfly turned into an unstoppable hurricane, roaring towards Nanjing.

As the instigator, Xu Zheng, the young prince of Dingguo's family, probably would never have thought that a girl on horseback he occasionally saw on the street, and occasionally wanted to compare, a casual command could cause such a big incident.

The storm!

In fact, even if he knew that the turmoil sweeping Nanjing and even involving his own family was caused by him, he would not care. The young master was born noble, and practicing hard to kill enemies is the right path. Such trivial matters

, it’s up to his fathers to worry about it, and it won’t affect him at all.

Yes, it is a turmoil. It is not an exaggeration to use the word turmoil to describe the most concerning event in Nanjing at the moment.

With an imperial edict, Luan Yuping, the official of Yingtian Mansion, was promoted several levels and sat in the position of Minister of Household Affairs in Nanjing. The words of the young emperor surpassed countless people's years of hard work. Fortunately, the cabinet still cared about the dignity of the court.

, if we really follow the emperor's words and promote a minister from the sixth rank to the third rank, it would be too unconventional. Even if he is lucky enough to be promoted, there is no way to be lucky enough to be promoted.

The cabinet mentioned Luan Yuping, who was promoted from the sixth-rank official to the fifth-rank official. Although this is a bit scary, it is still much better than the Nanjing Minister of Household Affairs who was directly promoted to the third-rank. As for the emperor's

I mean, we can make some changes and give Luan Yuping the title of Minister of Household Affairs and make him preside over the implementation of the new law. No matter who is involved in this kind of treatment, there is nothing wrong with it.

Luan Yuping knew where his wealth came from. On the day he was promoted to Yingtian Mansion, he went to the guarding eunuch's mansion to meet Wang Yue. This time, Wang Yue did not let him wait in the concierge for a long time and received him quickly.

A colleague of the fifth rank is qualified to drink a cup of tea at the prince's house.

Of course, when two people meet, they will not say anything explicit, but with this meeting, outsiders will naturally speculate on the relationship between the two. Wang Gonggong has just arrived in Nanjing, and Luan Yuping, a guy who has not moved his position in several years, suddenly

He was promoted to fellow magistrate, which was so satisfying. On the same day that Luan Yuping was promoted, he went to pay homage to the prince's father-in-law. Even a blind man could tell that Luan Yuping had officially entered the palace of the prince.

clip bag.

Such a move made the little people envious and jealous, while the big people just nodded and smiled. When the prince first arrived in Nanjing, he had to have a few capable people. With the prince's connections, he could promote a meager official.

, it’s really nothing too extreme.

However, the next thing that this meager little official did made them laugh a little bit. The new law was implemented and the store tax was collected. This job is not that great if it is said to be great, but if it is not great, it really needs to be considered.

, but it’s a bit of a headache.

There are a lot of idle people in the Ministry of Revenue, but they are all used to being pampered. Don't expect them to go to the streets to collect tax money. When Luan Yuping started working, in addition to transferring a few accountants from the Ministry of Revenue

Except for Mr. Hu, he has almost no use for anyone in the household department.

The three squads of yamen servants in Yingtian Mansion all have their own affairs. Even if the new Mr. Tongzhi is very popular, if he really wants to deploy hundreds of people, Yingtian Mansion will not have to do anything.

There were a few guys in there who were very comfortable flattering him, and he didn't need many people from Yingtian Mansion.

If this is a drama, after the opening, the meat of the drama is about to begin. Yes, Luan Yuping directly used the Jinyiwei. This is the real meat of the drama.

It is definitely not possible to use Jinyiwei without greeting Huang Dachuan, a thousand households of Jinyiwei. Huang Dachuan is not opposed to such things. As long as money is exchanged, there will be no less benefits from Jinyiwei. It is just to collect some tax money.

We Jin Yiwei have plenty of helpers to do this. If we encounter a thorn head, once this Feiyu uniform embroidered spring knife comes out, who would dare to explode the thorn head?

I don’t know what kind of agreement was reached between Luan Yuping and Huang Dachuan. Anyway, the hundreds of households who were trying to stuff people into the cattle market suddenly found that even if they couldn’t find the people from the hundreds of households with money, their own

These close friends also had a good place to get fat. Of course, Baihuhu finally found the money and agreed to their request. However, these Jinyiwei who wanted to come to the cattle market were all blocked by Qian Wubing.

In Luan Yuping's hands, these thirty or so people, plus the helpers who usually work with them, almost numbered hundreds. These people formed the enforcement team of the new tax law.

Of course, these people are still under the name of the Bull Market Baihu Office. Although they are not on duty in the Bull Market, they still have to arrive at midnight every day. No matter how much they despise the young Baihu, Baihu

The amount of money paid was based on the record of clicking the numbers. If the money was not paid once, the money would be deducted. If the money was not paid three times, the person would be refunded directly. Not to mention the benefits of the bull market, even this

The benefits of levying new taxes will be lost at all.

On a drizzling afternoon, the new tax law quietly came into effect.

Luan Yuping did it very carefully. He knew how difficult this matter was. Although this was a job that was destined to offend people, he still wanted to delay the offending matter as much as possible, so that the chess piece could start from where it left off.

Maybe, something happened during this period, and he no longer had to be the sandwich board to be blamed by these two people? He didn't want to be kicked out of his colleague's seat before his butt was warmed up.

It started in the bull market first, and here he was more certain. With Qian Wubing's cooperation, it shouldn't be difficult to collect the money. Of course, there is another point, there are no shops opened by distinguished officials in the bull market.

As he expected, Jinyiwei and their helpers seemed to be sweeping past the shops in the cattle market one by one with their wooden boxes carrying cash registers. Although the owners of those shops were somewhat reluctant, generally speaking,

There was still not much resistance. At the end of the day, there were one or two hundred taels of copper coins in the wooden box.

This was a good start. After the money was handed over to the Account Department and entered into the account, Luan Yuping began to think about it. According to the suggestion of Qian Baihu, he discussed it with several directors of the Account Department. According to the account books, twenty

A tax of one does not seem too excessive. The bull market is just a small place. Although there are many guild halls, there are not many shops. If you can receive so much money in one day, how much money can the entire city of Nanjing receive?

The next day, the third day, and the next many days, Jin Yiwei continued to lead people to collect money. However, this range gradually expanded from the bull market to the outside. During this period, some paid according to the amount honestly, and some were ruthless.

However, these people couldn't be arrogant in front of Jin Yiwei. They hit him with a few scabbards and then threatened the other party's home and so on, so these people became honest.

Luan Yuping's money was collected very slowly. This was because he tried to avoid those shops with strength and backing. After all, no matter how dissatisfied the common people were, they would still spend money to eliminate disasters and not cooperate honestly.

If you go to the government, you will really be in jail. So, although there was a little trouble at first, you can still suppress it.

However, with his actions, the news has been spreading uncontrollably. Twenty taxes per cent, which is really not a small amount of money based on the current flow, although so far, the stupid young fellow

You know, all of them are looking for small fish and shrimps to attack, and none of the real big merchants have been touched. However, these big merchants, or these people who are officials and guest merchants, can't help but quietly do it in the dead of night.

I thought about it for a while: This money is going to come to me. Should I pay it or not?

The little fish and shrimps were finally taken care of by the fishermen. Faced with those existences that he could not afford to offend, Luan Yuping also asked himself, should he accept the money or not?

"Master Luan doesn't look high-spirited at all. Now when I see you, I have to greet you from afar. What are you doing with such a sad face?"

On the second floor of the Sihai Guild Hall, Qian Wubing happily teased Luan Yuping. Next to him, there was also a frowning Liu Zihe.

"Qian Baihu, we don't need to be so polite. You invited me here today, you definitely didn't do it to tease me, right?" Luan Yuping really has no intention of joking. The pressure is getting bigger and bigger now, and there are several incidents every day.

Even though the tax resistance thing happened, it was all soft persimmons, but if I pinched it too much, my own hands were in a mess!

"It's not me who wants to date you, it's my brother who wants to date you!" Qian Wubing pointed at Liu Zihe. He was very satisfied with Luan Yuping's performance. No matter how slow the other party's tax collection was, he would always get paid by those powerful people.

, when the day comes when people from the Xu family come out, he will be able to express his anger for Sun Qian with a clear conscience.

"Student Liu Zihe, have you met Mr. Luan!" Liu Zihe said hurriedly.

In front of Luan Yuping, he didn't have Qian Wubing to be so relaxed. After all, the other party was also a fifth-rank imperial official, and he was not an official's son who could be on an equal footing with him.

"Huh?" Luan Yuping raised his eyebrows and looked at Qian Wubing. He didn't know why Qian Wubing brought this person to him to see him.

"You two are chatting. I only want to take you to meet Mr. Luan, but you are unwilling to go to Mr. Luan's Yamen!" Qian Wubing spread his hands, having fulfilled his duty of introduction: "I'm going to see what's being discussed below. So

lively!"

The two of them were speechless when they saw Qian Wubing leaving irresponsibly. After a moment of silence, Liu Zihe broke the silence and said with some embarrassment: "Master Luan, the Qingyun is my property, and my father is also a colleague of Master Luan."

, can the store tax be calculated higher and lower?"
