After so many years of restructuring, it was really disappointing for Liu Yang to have such a result.

What was even worse was what happened later. When Chen Ruoyu was brought to the imperial court, he still did not repent and wanted to struggle a little more and make false excuses.

Liu Yang asked Chen Ruoyu about the current status of the tax reform in Heqing County. Although he was a little panicked, he quickly adjusted and said sincerely that he was following the instructions of the court. Even if there were some omissions, they were deviations caused by a poor understanding of the new policies.

and made a mistake, which he also admitted.

When Liu Yang mentioned that private loans at high interest rates were common in Heqing County and the poor were being oppressed, Chen Ruoyu looked innocent and expressed in confusion that the imperial court did not prohibit private loans, and it was very common for poor people to borrow money to buy land. The squires

If you are willing to give up the land, you can't give it away for free.

He even clamped down on debts with excessively high interest rates, punished evil gentry, and effectively protected the interests of the common people. Especially those landlords who passed all the land transaction taxes on to the farmers were even more strict in accordance with the tax law.

He handled everything in accordance with the law and the rules, and these situations are all well-documented.

On the other hand, in the process of a large number of land transactions, the county government collected a large amount of transaction tax to enrich the finance. This is not only a fault, but also a merit.

Of course, he is not a perfect person. He has insufficient political experience and has made some mistakes. He has a unclear understanding of the livelihood of ordinary people and has neglected to observe some people's sentiments. Chen Ruoyu also admits this.

After dealing with it, Liu Yang was so angry that he almost ordered Chen Ruoyu to be beheaded. This kind of tact and sophistry made Chen Ruoyu very clear, but it was terrifying to think about it carefully. At the same time, from the county magistrate, Liu Yang also understood the situation in Heqing County.

Why has it developed to this point?

Chen Ruoyu is by no means a mediocre person. You can even call him a capable person when it comes to what he does. His brain is too flexible, and he keeps brushing aside and making achievements. However, as a parent official, he has never been able to sit on his butt.

On the side of the common people, they actively move closer to those filial (village) sons (gentry), virtuous (local) grandsons (lords).

If all the bureaucrats in the world are like this, it will not only be the suffering of the small people, but also the sorrow of the Han Empire. The problem is precisely that Liu Yang has no idea about the situation in various places, how far it has developed, and whether it is still compared with Heqing County.

There has been.

Not to mention anything else, at least here in Heqing County, the public security is relatively stable, and Chen Ruoyu has controlled the situation well. But what about places where riots, civil unrest, and even judgments occur?

Of course, no matter how Chen Ruoyu tried to quibble, he could not escape the suspicion of deceiving the emperor. However, after his words, Liu Yang really gave up his intention to kill this person for a while.

That night, at the county hotel, Liu Yang had another heart-to-heart talk with Xu Shilian. He expressed with regret that the tax reform had reached an extremely difficult stage at its current stage.

However, through these problems, he also discovered that many of these problems can actually be avoided. What he can think of is to use more comprehensive, more frequent, and more in-depth supervision, not to say to eliminate it, but at least to improve the local chaos.

.

Liu Yang said passionately that the people of the Han Dynasty deserved more sympathy and protection from the imperial court.

To be honest, if the fundamental problem is not solved, all that can be done is to improve and solve some superficial things.
