The small Laojun Hall was already packed to the rafters. After hearing that the county magistrate had arrived, the farmers in Guantian hurried over, along with the victims who were helping in Guantian and the people who were there.
Five hundred children.
Ever since disaster victims poured into Yangcheng County, Wang Wen rarely had time to face so many people, but Ye An could clearly feel the change in his temperament.
As a parent official of a county, Wang Wen has a very good demeanor, and the official uniform he wears with his straight body also looks uncomfortable and uncomfortable.
"All fellow villagers are my fellow citizens in Yangcheng County. Now that Henan Prefecture has been hit by a disaster, the county is very pleased to take in the victims with eagerness and justice! Now you will follow Mr. Guanmiao to repair water conservancy, reclaim wasteland, and protect autumn seedlings.
For the good deed, the officials showed mercy, and the court also issued an official document stating that anyone who accepts disaster victims this year will be exempted from 30% of the autumn tax!"
If these words had been spoken elsewhere, there would have been thunderous cheers, but here it was completely silent. Everyone was staring at Wang Wen, as if to see if his head was empty!
What does Guan Tian mean? Guan Tian means not having to pay taxes! Farmers do not pay taxes to the court, but pay rent to Laojun Guan!
What does the imperial court's exemption of 30% of autumn taxes have to do with them?
Wang Yuan next to him coughed violently, and Wang Wen came to his senses, looked at Xuan Chengzi, who was beside him, and said with an embarrassed smile: "The official family has been exempted from 30% of the autumn tax. You see, Mr. Wang..."
Xuan Chengzi calmly stretched out his palm and raised his five fingers. The farmers watching the fields burst into extremely enthusiastic cheers!
So Wang Yuan saw his own half-smiling expression on Ye An's face, and felt a little bitter in his heart...
But Ye Anke had no intention of letting him go. He stood behind him and whispered: "How about it? Half of the world's taxes go to the hands of those who are exempt from tax. Isn't what I said right?"
Wang Yuan whispered: "Don't stand on the shore and laugh! Sooner or later you will have to come down, and then you will know how difficult it is to reform!"
Ye An sneered and said: "So what if it's not easy? After the boy and the gentleman talked at night, the gentleman also understood that the boy was right. Once he succeeds, the world will be stable. But even so, the gentleman still feels that it is impossible. What the gentleman sees today must be
It will become something you see everywhere in the future!”
Wang Yuan took a breath and planned to say something, but in the end he held it back, turning into a grunting protest in his stomach...
Ignoring Wang Wen's words in front of the palace, he pulled Ye An to Xuan Chengzi's side. Looking at the three brothers, he smiled slightly and said: "Mr. Guanmiao, it looks like he has already brought his nephew with him."
Have the seeds been planted?"
Xuan Chengzi nodded and said: "This is natural. All the good seeds have been transplanted into the Guantian. The next step is to ask the bad ones."
When Wang Yuan saw Xuanchengzi kicking the ball back to Ye An, he sighed and saluted Ye An: "I beg Ye Xiaoyou to donate a good seed. I am willing to use the name of the Wang family of Sanhuai as a guarantee. This good seed will become the auspicious seed of the Song Dynasty."
thing!"
Ye An looked at Xuanchengzi in surprise, and when he saw him nodding slightly, he quickly helped Wang Yuan up and said: "Ye An just brought some good seeds given by the elders in the family, and he is not worthy of such a gift from sir!"
A smile appeared on Wang Yuan's face: "My little friend really understands the righteousness! Soon..."
When Wang Yuan started to praise himself, Ye An knew what he was planning. Officials don't praise others easily. Once they praise others, they are ready to trick you. This is true both in ancient and modern times.
So at this time, he became even more impolite. In line with the principle of maximizing benefits and making the best use of everything, Ye An hurriedly said: "As for the auspiciousness, it is inevitable. Farmers cherish the soil like gold. If it were not for auspiciousness,
By extension, even if the yield per mu is a thousand catties, one would not dare to plant it in the soil."
The expression on Wang Yuan's face froze slightly. He had planned to use these high hats to trap Ye An. After presenting these auspicious things to the court, the reward would not only be as simple as money, but also a title.
And once these fine seeds brought by Ye An with a yield of up to 1,000 kilograms per mu become auspicious, the rewards will be extremely powerful.
If the reward from the imperial court is too small, it will make people laugh at the world, because once these improved seeds are promoted, they are likely to bring unexpected changes to the Song Dynasty. Everyone will remember his name, Ye An, and even leave it in the history books.
Make a big deal.
Thinking of this, Wang Yuan looked at Ye An with a somewhat fierce look, but Ye An completely ignored it. How many years have you been setting up a stall? He has seen this kind of expression too many times!
A thick face and a dark heart are basic qualities. If you don’t have these, don’t even think about making money!
Seeing Wang Yuan's look of wanting to eat people, and then seeing Ye An's calm look, Xuandaozi and Xuanyangzi couldn't help but give a thumbs up. Such a face and mentality are really beyond my imagination.
My son!
Xuan Chengzi said with a smile: "The villain is right, farmers are very ignorant, and this auspicious sign is the only way to help promote improved seeds!"
Wang Yuan squeezed out a sentence through his teeth: "I wonder how much auspiciousness is needed?!"
Xuan Chengzi immediately waved his hands solemnly and said: "We are cultivators, how can we be greedy? We still have to discuss it with the Gong Gong in the court, and make a decision with the Queen Mother and the officials!"
As he spoke, Xuanchengzi flexed his fingers and said, "After calculating the time, the old Taoist has also been delayed in Yangcheng County for a long time, so he sent a letter of divorce to Tokyo City, hoping that the Queen Mother would allow the old Taoist to take the evil disciples with him."
Xiang Rui enters the palace and offers it with his own hands!"
Ye An took a breath, not realizing that the old Taoist was the real expert. After gaining the upper hand, he left Wang Yuan speechless with a few words. In the end, he even planned to take him to the old Zhao family in person.
Ask for benefits.
Awesome! This master is worth worshiping!
Wang Yuan drooped down his hands and sat on the chair without saying a word. Ye An took the right opportunity to stuff Tie Er's freshly roasted sweet potatoes and potatoes into his hands, looking forward to Wang Yuan's response in Tie Er's reluctant expression.
evaluate.
These potatoes and sweet potatoes have been cultivated and even hybridized for a long time in later generations, and their yield and taste are much better than those native to the Americas.
These potatoes and sweet potatoes were not planted in the ground at first. Xuanchengzi felt sorry for this for a while, and he kept them in Laojun Temple.
I secretly roasted three or five to bribe Jingwu, these are the rest.
The hot potatoes and sweet potatoes kept beating in Wang Yuan's hands, but he refused to put them down. He held them in his front pocket and carefully peeled away the blackened skin. The golden color inside was immediately exposed in front of him, and a stream of starch
The strong fragrance made him take a deep breath.
Then he pinched a handful with his hands and put it into his mouth. The fragrant taste of potatoes instantly made him intoxicated. He was sure that this was the taste of grain, even more pure.
"Smells, very fragrant!"
Seeing that Wang Yuan was conquered by the taste of potatoes, Ye An seduced him with a smile: "Try this sweet potato again."
Wang Yuan had long noticed that the sweet potato was larger than the potato, and the taste was more charming. The unique sound made people smell as sweet as honey.
Not to mention Wang Yuan, even Xuan Chengzi and others couldn't help but swallowed their saliva. Ye An couldn't stand it anymore and directly opened it for him.
In an instant, a color similar to gold suddenly bursts out from under the black skin, along with a fragrance that makes people feel lost in happiness...
