Chapter 359 Winter Tax

For half a month, Li Fan has not left the house.

His body has completely recovered, and he is still practicing sword skills in the yard from time to time.

At the same time, every day of the past half month, Li Fan would personally analyze every news outside and ask Xiao Liuzi about the taxes that the big clans had.

"Master, the county magistrate's office calls on the big clans in the city to take the lead in paying taxes. The big clans' carts and camels, and the money and grain paid filled the government office, causing great trouble. The county magistrate's office even made the people of the city take the big clan as an example..." Xiao Liuzi said with a puzzled look on his face: "These big clans are really beyond my expectations!"

He originally thought that the great clans had a good relationship with the government and had great power, and would definitely avoid taxes in every way, but he did not expect that the great clans would respond so positively! "Don't be blinded."

Li Fan just sneered and said, "This is just a good show that the government and those big tribes jointly sang, just for ordinary people."

"Now it seems that the great clans are naturally enthusiastic, because only in this way can ordinary people have to pay taxes. After the great clans pay taxes, the government and the great clans can justify asking the people to pay taxes."

"But what afterwards?"

A deep sarcasm appeared in Li Fan's eyes, saying, "The money from the big clan is returned in full, and the money from the people is 30% or 70%."

This is an eternal routine.

There are always a minority between the upper classes and infighting with internal struggles. When facing exploitation of the lower classes, their interests are surprisingly unified. It is easy and ordinary to work together to do all kinds of things.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Liuzi showed a sudden enlightenment.

"They are so cruel..."... "My God, today an old man in the north of the city was forcibly dragged away by taxes. He fainted on the spot and almost died."

"Master, I heard that a family named Chen from Chengnan sent their daughter to the Gao family last night. The old man from the Gao family is an old thief... The next day, the Chen family paid the tax and was not collected from the house."

"My man, today the full cart of money and grain was pulled out of a village. Some people cried and fought for it. They were beaten by the soldiers accompanying him..." "My man, the Mingshan Medical Center has recently received more and more people with frostbite. In order to pay taxes, they braved the cold to go up the mountain to hunt, chop wood, and dig wild vegetables more and more people..." Every news, whether big or small, as long as it is about tax collection and about ordinary people, Li Fan asked Xiao Liuzi to report it one by one.

Xiao Liuzi often talked and his eyes turned red.

Although he was a beggar in his early years, he followed Nan Sanye and never tasted such bitterness.

Now, he realized that in order to pay taxes, so many people have been forced into a desperate situation.

Li Fan was just silent after all.

Every time, every miserable people hurt his heart.

His fists clenched again and again, but in the end he let go again.

His eyes became more and more firm.

Becoming more and more determined! "Master, when will we take action?

Many people were crying and calling you..." On this day, Xiao Liuzi couldn't help but wet his eyes. He saw with his own eyes the scene of a couple and children in the family kneeling and crying when the vehicle that collected food was pulled out of the people's homes... "It's soon, it's soon..." Li Fan clenched his fists, and his knuckles were already white due to the unbearableness and anger in his heart! However, he could not move.

Time has not come yet.

Now that he can't beat all the big clans in one go! After Xiao Liuzi left, Li Fan drank wine and danced his long sword. The sword technique of life and death was fully displayed. Although he was not fighting against the enemy, his murderous intent was like a tide! With his murderous intent, he controlled the long sword swallowing in his hand. He seemed to have turned into a bloodthirsty Shura waiting for bloodthirsty! Ganti Banner appeared beside him. Looking at Li Fan's sword technique, he suddenly realized something in his eyes.

He stepped forward and suddenly came out a knife. The cold long sword attacked Li Fan! Li Fan's sword, the sword knife, was filled with unfair anger! That was because of the anger that witnessed the unfairness of the world.

It is to see the pain of suffering of the people.

It is the murderous intent that wants to kill all unfair things in the world with one sword.

But the sword of the Ganti Flag is like a kind of cold beauty.

Calm, calm, cold, cold, ruthless.

His knife is like his man.

Always silent, but always cold.

Because of Li Fan's warm heart, he was angry.

But the Ganti Flag seems to have no love because the soul is dead.

The two of them collided with each other, and suddenly, they had a profound feeling in their hearts.

"when!"

With the last blow, the two of them suddenly stopped.

They were silently facing each other.

The same knife skills evolved into completely different styles in the hands of the two.

At this moment, they confirmed each other, making each other seem to understand their swordsmanship.

Gantiqi closed his eyes and felt it for a long time.

Suddenly, a long sword slashed across the ground, and a line of small words appeared: "Kill the messenger of God, how many swords?"

Li Fan looked at the Ganti Flag, and after a collision with the Ganti Flag, he felt a little relieved in his heart, and said at this moment: "One knife!"

One knife! "He stabbed me thirty-seven swords, and I could only slash one knife from beginning to end."

"He stabbed me with thirty-seven swords and did not kill me, but my knife cut off his head."

Gantiqi nodded, and he suddenly turned around.

At this moment, his entire aura suddenly seemed to have changed.

It seems more lonely and colder.

It is becoming increasingly inaccessible.

"Super first-class realm..." Li Fan suddenly felt something.

In just a moment, the Gantry Flag had broken through.

His life and death sword went further and entered a top-notch state.

Similarly, Li Fan's Life and Death Sword has now vaguely exceeded the level and realm of the four-star sword technique.

...Time flies very quickly.

A month has almost passed.

The winter tax in the city is almost over.

Most people, whether they can afford to pay or cannot, have paid taxes in various ways.

Some people cry on a cold night, some people go out to work on a dark morning, and some people gently scrape the remaining rice in the rice jar over and over again... the county magistrate's mansion.

"Hahaha, it's great, this year is another great harvest!"

"Yes, thanks to Li Fan's serious injury, it's hard to heal. Otherwise, where would we get the chance?"

"But, I don't know what happened to Li Fan that beast. It's like this month and I'm not dead..." "Yes... But whether he dies or not will not affect this matter. There is no big difference between a living dead and a real dead!"

Everyone spoke one after another.

Sun Zhonglin read one account book after another, and finally showed a slightly relaxed smile on his face.

Over the past so long, he finally found something happy.

"According to this year's harvest, plus the tributes from other counties in Linchuan, the money needed by Xijing is completely enough..." He breathed a long sigh.

The reason why they can occupy and control everything in Linchuan is not only because of their Sun family's influence in Linchuan, but also because of their hard work in Xijing.

Those require a lot of money.

"Mr. Han, how are the accounts done?

When will it be sent?"

Sun Zhonglin looked at Mr. Han and asked a question.

It can be said that the core figure of taxation is definitely Mr. Han.

Almost every link was designed by him.

There are many links in this major event, and if you are not careful, you will leak the secret. However, after his systematic decomposition and coordination, many subordinates only participated in one of the links. Except for the people here today, no one knew the entire process.

So, this ensures that their actions are safe! Mr. Han put down the pen in his hand, and he has made the accounts perfectly.

Even if someone from the court came to investigate, no problems could be found.

It's ready to give it.

However, Mr. Han felt a sense of uneasiness in his heart. He always had an ominous premonition, and this premonition was never before in previous years.

"Should you wait for another two days, don't worry."

After thinking about it, he finally delayed it for a few more days.

He might want to find the source of his inner uneasiness.

… “Mr. Li, two-thirds of the people you stared at have taken intensive actions during this period, but they have not participated in any centralized transportation.”

General Tanyun Jiang Dacai reported the news.

"But, the remaining third of the two days seems to be preparing to wait for something."

When Li Fan heard this, a cold light that had been hidden for a long time finally appeared in his eyes! "They are waiting."

Li Fan sneered and said, "It's really prudent. There are indeed people planning for them."

"Since they are so worried, I will help them and make them feel at ease!"

Li Fan waved his hand and said, "I released the news and said that I was seriously injured and died, and I finally died, and the funeral was held the day after tomorrow!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Dacai's face changed.

Xiao Liuzi and others were even more shocked! Jiang Dacai was shocked for a long time before slowly coming to his senses. Looking at Li Fan, a trace of thought flashed in his eyes, as if he had already understood Li Fan's intention.

"I understand, I'll make arrangements now."

He spoke immediately.

"In addition, send a letter to the Zhao Mansion and send some powerful personnel to come over - the black armored cavalry is the best."
