"They don't have any dental cards, and their accounts have been closed, so they can't go back."
Qing Mulan said.
A tooth tag is similar to an ID card in the 21st century. After paying taxes every year, a tax payment stamp must be left on the tooth tag. Without a tooth tag, you are a refugee.
After these women are sold, their families will definitely not continue to pay taxes on them.
If you only missed paying taxes for one year, it would be fine, just double the amount would be enough, but it would be very difficult to cancel the account.
"Sir, did you know that when your parents sold them, they not only didn't take any money, but they also had to give Yapa money!"
Qing Mulan said sadly: "Because their parents can't afford their share of taxes, they can only give Yapo some money and ask Yapo to find someone to pretend to be a bandit and snatch them away. If they cancel the household in this way, they can save more than half of their taxes."
Fine of silver.
If they go back like this, the most likely outcome is that they will be drowned by their parents."
"Then let them live here first."
Jin Feng sighed helplessly: "If it doesn't work out, I'll discuss it with Dongdong later..."
"What do you want to discuss with me?"
A crisp voice came from the door.
Jin Feng turned around and saw Guan Xiaorou and Tang Dongdong coming in.
Behind him were Zhang Captou and several female soldiers.
"Why are you here?"
Jin Feng asked in surprise.
"We're worried about the boss... Mr. Zhang is about to come, so we'll follow him and have a look..."
Guan Xiaorou lowered her head and answered.
"Isn't this nonsense? What should I do if I encounter bad people on the road?"
Jin Feng frowned and scolded.
"The most popular bandits to the west of Jinchuan County are Tieguan Mountain and Maomao Mountain. Now they have been wiped out. With Zhang Baotou and Alan and the others here, who would dare to rob us?"
Tang Dongdong said: "Sister Xiaorou, doesn't she care about you?"
"I'll take care of you when I get back!"
Jin Feng pointed at the two women, then turned to look at Zhang Captou: "I wonder why Zhang Captou is here?"
"I received news in the morning that the bandits from Tiegunshan were going to attack Xihewan, so I thought about going to send a message to my husband. Who knew that by the time I got there, it was already over? I heard that my husband was coming to Tiegunshan, so I came over to take a look.
Do you need any help?"
Zhang Captou looked at Jin Feng with complicated eyes.
His first thought when he got the news was that Jin Feng was dead, but when he arrived at Xihewan, he realized that it was the Iron Can Mountain bandits who were dead.
The iron caltrops and heavy crossbow arrows on the threshing floor had been put away by the village chief. Zhang Captou couldn't figure out how a group of old, weak, sick and disabled people in Xihewan could kill hundreds of bandits.
.
It wasn't until he arrived at Iron Can Mountain that he discovered that Jin Feng had secretly recruited and trained dozens of veterans of the Iron Forest Army.
But even so, he found it incredible.
"Thank you Zhang Captou, but the battle is over. If there is nothing else, I don't dare to waste Zhang Captou's time."
Jin Feng made an inviting gesture towards the door.
He had just finished fighting the bandits when Capt. Zhang arrived. Jin Feng instinctively felt that something was wrong.
Even if Zhang Captou was really loyal to Qing Huai's entrustment and came to help, Jin Feng didn't want to get involved with the official family.
"In that case, I won't disturb you sir."
Jin Feng made it clear that he was chasing people away, and Zhang Captou seemed a little angry. He clasped his fists at Jin Feng, turned around and left.
But when he walked to the door, he suddenly stopped: "By the way, I went to see Master Zhou once when I left. I originally wanted to beg for mercy and ask him to let him go, but it seems that I can't use it now.
.”
"That's really hard work for Zhang Captou. Next time I go to the county government, I must express my gratitude to Zhang Captou."
Jin Feng said with a smile: "I also hope that the head catcher will be rewarded."
"That's not necessary, but I think it's better to resolve enemies than to end them. Master Zhou has the Zhou family as his backer. I think it's better for you, sir, not to conflict with him."
Zhang Captou said: "If Sir is willing, I can help you arrange a meeting between Sir and Master Zhou. How about we sit down and talk?"
"No, I have nothing to talk about with him. If Master Zhou wants to see me, just go to Xihewan to find me."
Jin Feng had a cold face and made a gesture of invitation again.
He can now basically confirm that Zhang Captou is Master Zhou's lobbyist.
Zhang Captou sighed, turned and left.
"It seems that this guy has betrayed brother Qinghuai!"
Qing Mulan also noticed the change in Zhang Captou: "I will definitely arrange for someone to check him out later."
"We need to check."
Jin Feng nodded slightly.
"By the way, Brother Feng, when I came here just now, I heard you saying that you wanted to discuss it with me. What should we discuss?"
Tang Dongdong asked curiously.
"Dongdong, like this..."
Qing Mulan told Tang Dongdong about those girls.
"I thought I was pitiful enough, but I didn't expect them to be even more pitiful than me."
Tang Dongdong sighed: "But I don't think they should be allowed to spin thread. Making soap is the most suitable job for them."
"Why?"
Guan Xiaorou asked curiously.
"Although I don't know how soap is made, the process shouldn't be difficult, right? Otherwise, given Brother Feng's character, he wouldn't be able to do it himself."
Tang Dongdong said with a smile: "There is only one road up and down Tin Can Mountain, and these girls don't want to leave. Isn't it just right to let them produce soap?"
"It's really suitable."
Jin Feng nodded slightly.
It must be said that Tang Dongdong is very observant and very smart.
But she didn't know that although the soap making process is simple, if someone wants to imitate soap, it is more difficult than imitating a spinning wheel.
Because in addition to oil and grease, the other main raw material used in making soap is caustic soda.
The history of caustic soda being used on earth is not very long. No one in Dakang except Jin Feng knows what caustic soda is, let alone how to make caustic soda.
But once or twice Jin Feng can do it by himself. After soap is promoted, more and more caustic soda will be needed. Jin Feng can't just hide in the laboratory and make caustic soda every day without doing anything, right?
Then what fun is there in a life that is reborn?
Therefore, the manufacturing process of caustic soda will be spread sooner or later.
Tang Dongdong's suggestion is also good. Making soap in Tin Can Mountain can keep it confidential to the greatest extent.
"Mu Lan, go talk to those girls and see if they are willing to work for me."
"Dongdong, sister-in-law Xiaorou, please go together. I'm not familiar with the factory, so it's easier for you to go and talk to me."
Qing Mulan grabbed Tang Dongdong and Guan Xiaorou.
"good."
Guan Xiaorou glanced at Jin Feng and nodded slightly.
Tang Dongdong would naturally not object.
The three women led several female soldiers out of Liu Jiang's courtyard. Passing by the woman tied at the door, Qing Mulan stopped and asked: "Sir, how should we deal with this evil woman?"
"I haven't thought about it yet."
Jin Feng shook his head.
The bandits killed them when they wanted, but most of the wives of the leaders were poor people who had been bought, so Jin Feng didn't know how to deal with them for the time being.
