Chapter 641 The Revival Changed Me
Listening to Zheng Chenghong's remarks, Xin Qiji squeezed the beard on his chin and spoke slowly.

"Speaking of which, the Inspection Bureau is nominally a subordinate department of the state governor and the county magistrate, but there are not many times when the state governor and the county magistrate are commanded in turn."

"That's right, only when something big happens, it's my turn to deal with it. For the rest, I feel that the head of the judicial bureau is more like the leader of the inspection bureau than me."

Zheng Chenghong opened his mouth and said: "This is not enough, because mobilizing the inspection bureau to deal with major matters will have a great impact, so every time I order a mobilization, I have to write a report to explain the inside story, and then send it to the judicial director for him to record. .

At the end of each year, the Bureau of Justice organizes a review of the political performance of local officials to judge whether local officials have acted illegally. At that time, these things will be needed as evidence to judge whether I have acted in accordance with the law. This is related to my political performance. "

Xin Qiji laughed.

"Speaking of which, your state prefect is nominally one level higher than the chief judicial officer. You are the fourth-rank, and he is from the fourth-rank, but in fact it feels like he is being controlled by others?"

"What's even more amazing is that I am not subject to him in the rules, he has no right to interfere with my actions, what I want to do, he can't make irresponsible remarks, but the prefect of the state needs to act according to the law, and the one in charge of justice is Justice Bureau."

Zheng Chenghong said depressedly: "Whether I can pass their inspections at the end of each year, whether I can get effective political achievements and get a chance for promotion, I need to refer to the inspection results of the judicial bureau. If the inspection results of the judicial bureau are not good, the future of officials will be affected. There is danger."

"This...you are really difficult."

Xin Qiji said in a low voice, "The Bureau of Justice is in charge of judicial affairs, and has a lot of power. If you want to do things, it's really easy to tie your hands and feet. It's really not an easy task to be a prefect of a state."

"Not necessarily. It's fine if you don't violate the rules. Your Majesty won't make us too embarrassed. I can still do what we need to do."

Zheng Chenghong said with a smile: "You can't feel these things when you're not an official. Only when you're an official can you feel that there are problems everywhere, and you must be careful everywhere. The checks and balances in officialdom are not a big problem. Of course no mistakes are made.

But I'm not just an official, I'm also a member of the Revival Society. As an official, I can be pampered and slack off, but as a member, I have to fight for everything. No matter what the problem is in Haizhou, I have to be at the forefront.

Whether the river is flooding, the sea is pouring in, there are bandits at sea, or farmers have problems with their harvests, all these problems must be paid attention to and responsible, because this is not only my duty, but also my participation in the Renaissance as a member of the Renaissance. oath made. "

Xin Qiji looked at Zheng Chenghong.

"Are you tired of taking on so much? Is it bitter?"

"Of course it was tiring and bitter, but beyond that, I had a deep sense of satisfaction."

Zheng Chenghong smiled and said: "I came from a poor background, and I have never read the Eight Classics since I was a child, and I have no knowledge of Confucian classics. Can you think of today?

It was His Majesty who changed me, and it was the revival that changed me. In the words of the meeting, the revival shattered the shackles on my body, liberated me, and allowed me to work hard. This is how I am today, and the suffering of the past. In comparison, what are the difficulties we are facing now?

Whenever I solve a difficult problem, see the smiling faces of those farmers, and see them thanking me from the bottom of their hearts, I know that the country that His Majesty wants to build without exploitation and oppression has appeared. .

Although there are still many difficulties and many enemies that have not yet been resolved, at least in Haizhou, we are going all out to realize it, there is no suffering we suffered in the past... God's eyes are not counted. ,Ha ha ha ha! "

Looking at Zheng Chenghong's dark circles under his eyes due to his long-term hard work, and listening to his hearty laughter, Xin Qiji was moved spontaneously in his heart.

So he couldn't help holding Zheng Chenghong's hand.

"Your Majesty did not see the wrong person, and I did not see the wrong person, Cheng Hong, you did a good job."

"I hope my efforts can bring smiles to all the faces of the people in the country, and the day will come sooner."

Zheng Chenghong expressed such emotion.

The day after the meeting with Zheng Chenghong, Xin Qiji went to visit Wang Kangshi, director of the Haizhou Revival Association branch.

However, when he visited Wang Kangshi, Wang Kangshi was not at the location of the branch, but went to work in several villages near the sea in Qushan County.

Xin Qiji took the initiative to rush over to find Wang Kangshi, and then went through something he was solving with him.

Whether this matter is too big or too small, it belongs to the kind of thing that people below can discuss and solve, but in Xin Qiji's view, this matter is quite representative.

It is said that these villages were affected by the inflow of seawater last year, so that part of the land was not harvested, but the official tax calculation still included this part of the land, so that some farmers paid some more taxes.

Their actual income is not that much, but they pay taxes like other people who have more income than them, so they are unbalanced, and finally they get together to complain to the villagers.

According to the temporary agricultural tax law promulgated by Su Yonglin when he was in the General Affairs Bureau, it is stipulated that if farmers' land is affected by an irresistible natural disaster and their yields are reduced, the tax can be reduced or exempted, and there is no need to pay so much tax.

So the village peasant association reported the matter to the village peasant association after learning about it.

The township and peasant association sent people to these villages to learn about the situation, and then sent representatives to explain to the relevant officials in charge of tax collection at the county government, in an attempt to win the possibility of tax rebates.

However, the county government has not given an explanation.

This year, under the strong demands of those farmers, the township peasant association once again sent people to negotiate with the county government.

The township peasant association was very angry and was preparing to carry out further actions, preparing to submit relevant materials to the county judicial branch, and to have a battle with the county government.

It is better to be in a hurry than a coincidence. Zhou Wei, the president of the Township Farmers Association, also knows Wang Kangshi's huge influence in Haizhou, so he explained this problem to Wang Kangshi.

After Wang Kangshi learned about this, he did some thinking and did not bypass the relevant departments to make decisions alone. According to the procedures, he could not make any decisions alone.

So he informed the Qushan County Judicial Branch and the relevant officials of the Qushan County Government Office, as well as the staff of the Qushan County Revival Association Branch, and asked them to come out and hold a small meeting together.

Wang Kangshi didn't make any decision at the time. He just arranged the three parties of the Township Farmers Association, the Qushan County Judicial Branch, and the relevant officials of the Qushan County Government to a table, and he and other members of the Renaissance Association were listening on the side.

When the three parties met, Zhou Wei, the president of the Township Farmers Association, explained the ins and outs of the incident and made it clear. He also brought the relevant documents and witnesses to the scene and placed them in the Qushan County Judicial Branch. In front of Liao Yuan.

Liao Yuan read the relevant documents, and then carefully asked the representatives of the farmers involved, and discussed with the staff around him for a while.

In the end, he determined that according to the temporary agricultural tax law promulgated by the General Administration Bureau, the situation faced by these farmers can be reduced or exempted from taxes, but the county government did not do so when collecting taxes, nor did they refund taxes in time afterwards, which is indeed a violation.

So Liao Yuan decided that the county magistrate must return the tax to these farmers on behalf of the county government.
