The self-cultivated farmers in Qinjia Village who have insisted on not giving up land for decades and hundreds of years have smiled the happiest.

They heard clearly that Qin Zhao was trying to kick back the illegal land tax that was pressing on them and kicked them into the hands of the gentry who should have paid taxes.

If the land tax weighing one stone per acre is kicked back and the land tax is reduced to one-quarter of the original, how good will the self-cultivated farmers in Qinjia Village live?

Qin Zheng calculated that the family had three acres of paddy fields, and the harvest was about six stones of grain. In the past, he had to pay the three stones of land, but his three family could only get the three stones of grain, which was just enough for the whole family to drink thin and eat bran. If the Qianhu Master helped him kick back the illegal land tax that he had pressed, he would only have to pay the seven dou of land tax. He would suddenly have two dou of grain.

Two stones and three dou of grain, nearly four hundred kilograms of rice, how can you eat so much extra grain? It would be too much to say that you can cut a piece of meat and go home to eat it every few days, right?

I took medicine for my father with my monthly money and exchanged the extra grain at home for meat. Then my father's illness will be cured soon, right?

Qin Zheng became happier the more he thought about it. He laughed loudly and said in front of the three juren: "The unreasonable and gentle scum, he can only curse him if he is too poor!"

Wang Yuan didn't expect Qin Zhao's servants to dare to scold him, and he widened his eyes and cursed: "You!"

Qin Zheng laughed and said, "What are you? My name is Qin Zheng, a servant under Mr. Qianhu! I have been practicing for several months and no one is an opponent. Do you want to come up and practice?"

The Wang family servants behind Wang Yuan subconsciously took a step back.

Wang Yuan, who was over fifty years old, looked at the retreating servants, and how could he dare to come forward to provoke? His face suddenly turned red and white, and he couldn't speak for a long time.

The onlookers burst into laughter.

Wang Yuan and the other two were justified, but Qin Zhao was not even more a match for him. Standing on the glutinous field, the three of them turned red and white, and finally decided to leave as the best strategy.

The three of them are ready to go back.

But the people of Qinjia Village were unwilling to let them go.

Now Qin Zhao is going to collect land taxes in the fields under the names of the three Juren, so the original land rent and land taxes became unbearable. The people used to pay for the Juren to take advantage of the land tax, but now things have changed: the land that does not contribute only pays a little land tax, while the land that contributes to the Juren has to bear such high land rent and land tax.

After paying the land tax and land rent, I couldn't even eat enough.

How is this possible?

Hundreds of villagers surrounded the three Juren and shouted, "June Master! Reduce the rent!"

“Reduce the rent!”

“Reduce the rent!”

The dozen or so spoiled in the village were even more aggressive and rolled to the ground in front of the three Juren. They blocked the three Juren's way, not knowing whether they were going to hit the battlefield or to stop Juren from leaving.

These ruffians are now unhappy. Now they don’t have to pay the land they don’t have to pay the land tax of two dou and two dou, while the land they donated has to pay the land rent of more than nine dou. Huang Cancan’s rice flows into the granary of the three juren without reason.

Juren is not an official, so the thugs will not agree.

The three juren looked at each other and knew that they would not be able to get rid of them today.

Wang Yuan was helpless and gritted his teeth and said, "Don't make trouble! Don't make trouble! All the land tuitions added to my land tuitions are borne by the three landlords. I promise that this year, everyone's land tuitions plus land rent will be combined with nine dou of rice."

"I promise that the tenant farmers of our three families will not produce more rice!"

When everyone heard this, they stopped making noise and gradually became quiet.

Land rent and land tax will not increase, at least the villagers who contribute to tenants can still have enough food.

Some thug cursed: "They don't offer anything. One acre of land only has two dou of land! We have to pay the land tax, and we have to pay seven dou of land rent for nothing?"

A villager from Qinjia Village shouted loudly: "Six dou of land rent! Otherwise, you won't let go!"

The shouts of the villagers immediately attracted praise.

"Well said! Why don't you give me the only two dou? I'll pay nine dou! The land rent is reduced to six dou, and the land tax is two dou! Otherwise, I won't let you leave!"

"Don't let go! Don't think of leaving the village today!"

The sirens looked at each other for a while, and they were really crying without tears.

Although the land rent given in the past was high, the land tax was generally lower than that of the land that did not contribute, so the villagers who contributed the land would not make noise. Now, when Qin Zhao, the imperial court ordered the official to spread the land rent equally, the villagers who contributed the land immediately became unbalanced.

This is the difference between the nine dots every year and the two dots every year.

Extremely unbalanced.

If you spend more than 1,000 acres of land, one less bull of land rent would be 300 taels of silver. Moreover, judging from the momentum of these villagers, you will have a little bit of land rent, and you will have to pay only land taxes like the common people who don’t invest.

This is an inevitable chain reaction after Qin Zhao spread the land tax.

Wang Yuan's face turned red and white, and he said to the indignant villagers: "Okay! OK! OK! Only six dots of land rent!"

"But fellow villagers, we can't lose more! The land rent of six dou is the lowest in Xiangshan County, and there are records in the magistrate."

When the villagers heard the word "Magic magistrate", they immediately became much quieter. The juren Wang Yuan had a good relationship with the Magistrate. As soon as he brought out the name of Magistrate, the villagers did not dare to pay any more land rent.

The three priests looked at each other, how could they stay for an extra quarter of an hour? They pulled out the right side of the person who had the least gathered around them, walked out quickly, and left Qinjia Village as if they were running away.

...

On July 21st, Qin Zhao rode his horse and took Qin Ning and four servants to Dingnan Fort in Nanhai County.

Qin Zhao has made a lot of money in the past few months, so he matched Qin Youli, Qin Ning and others with horses. Now Qin Zhao and his group are walking on the road, a team of two horses, and four servants are walking with long swords to protect the horses.

Dingnan Fort is a relatively large garrison fortress in Nanhai County, responsible for the defense of the entire Xiangshan County and some Nanhai County. This fortress was very prominent and huge in the early days of the National Dynasty, with three thousand people at one time. However, the system of garrison fortress in the late Ming Dynasty was in decline, and the actual main structure of Dingnan Fort was only Dingnan Fortress south of Nanhai County.

Dingnan Fort was established as a "ethics" official, and was appointed as the deputy commander of the guard, and was the fourth rank of official.

Qin Zhao entered the fort from the south gate of Dingnan Fort.

The Chenggongguan Hall is in the center of the fortress, and is a government office-style building. Qin Zhao got along with the famous sect and waited at the entrance of the Chenggongguan Hall.

The ethics Xu Songtao warmly welcomed Qin Zhao.

Qin Zhao stood at the door for only a few minutes, and Xu Songtao brought his subordinates to the gate of the Consciousness Office Hall.

Qin Zhao didn't expect that he had such great energy to attract Xu Songtao to the door of the Conservation Office to greet him.

In addition to Xu Songtao, the commander-in-chief, there are two thousand households in the team that welcomes him.

Qin Zhao thought about it and felt that the reason why Xu Songtao was so enthusiastic was probably because his thousand households were granted by the imperial edict and were related to Nanjing City.

In the eyes of others, since they are in Nanjing, promotion and promotion are just around the corner? This is very different from the local buns in Xiangshan County and Nanhai County.

Just like the later president ordered the appointment of the captain of the county-level armed police squadron, how scary is the squadron leader who is on the horse like this?
