Chapter 210 Everyone is suffering
What Zhou Yacha said was just casually talking about the lively atmosphere. Seeing that they were chatting speculatively, Shu Yingtong silently poured tea for a table of people with a pot.

What kind of champions can come out of such limited teachers in the village school? Does the Imperial College not want to lose face?
Studying costs a lot, and very few students from poor families can get ahead.

A serious Jinshi like An Xingzhou can only be a county magistrate in a small county with eighteen bends in the mountain road, and he is forced to come here when there is a shortage of officials.

"What's the new emperor's policy?" Shu Yingtong turned sideways and asked the young clerk beside him who was silently drinking tea.

Since it was An Xingzhou who wanted to convey the news, besides the policy of benefiting the people, there must be other things that the common people don't need to know.

Liang Yachai put down his cup, raised his sleeve and wiped his mouth, sat upright and answered.

"It's good news for your village. I won't mention the amnesty for the world. People like your village who came to Yuan County to open up wasteland and settle down because of the severe disaster will be exempted from taxes for another year in addition to the three-year tax exemption promised earlier. "

After speaking, he took another sip from his teacup, with a slight joy on his face, "Because of the influx of disaster victims in our county, the entire county has been exempted from corvee labor for two years."

Corvée includes: forced labor, miscellaneous labor, and military service.The ancient rulers forced civilians to do unpaid labor, and it was nothing but unpaid work, and countless lives were lost.

All the disaster victims suffered population losses, and exempting them from corvee labor was considered an effective measure by the new emperor to win over the hearts and minds of the people.

After all, King Yi strictly speaking belonged to the rebel superior, who would support such a weak new emperor if he didn't win the hearts of the people in time.

Shu Yingtong nodded, this is indeed a great thing for the aborigines, and the Yacha also has many relatives.The whole county was exempted from corvee in exchange for her life, but she was happy but didn't want to show it too much in front of her.

"Is there anything you want to convey, Mr. An?"

"Oh, this is a matter for the nobles in the court, but Master An said he wanted to mention it to you." When it came to his immediate boss, Liang Ya's expression changed.

"That is, the vassal kings from all over the country are restricted from living in the capital and are not allowed to return to their fiefs. All princes, counties, and kings are given mansions and are not allowed to participate in political affairs."

Shu Yingtong raised her eyebrows slightly, listening to Jing Yun's words, the princes were not in harmony.It was okay when we were in the fiefdom, everyone was a salted fish living in the north and south, and there was no chance of stumbling.

Local government affairs are not allowed to be touched, and everything is required to be reported to the local government office.

Whether it is marrying a daughter-in-law, giving birth to a baby, or going to a funeral, documents must be written and reported, and the Jiang family will also send secret works to the palaces to monitor every move of the vassals.

On the surface, there are only four things for the princes to do in the fief: eat, sleep, have babies, and wait to die.

Where there is oppression, there will be resistance. The idle prince can do it, but the pig in the pen can't bear it.

He has long held grudges against the East Palace and the Jiang family for coercing the emperor to make the princes. Those who have the ability and means try to raise soldiers in order to protect themselves, and hope to wait for an opportunity to kill all the brothers in yellow robes.

King Yi did not dare to execute other brothers after he ascended the throne, because on the surface, he belonged to the old father Zen.Everyone has done a good job on the surface of the salted fish, and basically can't find out what's wrong, and they dare not put them back into the fief.

We had no choice but to keep them all under our noses and not give them real power.

He poisoned others before and stabbed him in the back but didn't kill the worst brother.As soon as they ascend the throne and give them enough face, this time the other princes really can only eat and wait to die.

Shu Yingtong is noncommittal about this kind of emperor's mind, not only earning himself a reputation of being open-minded, but also not giving his brothers a chance to emulate him.

It's just an escalation of what the Jiang family did to him. Only the state officials are allowed to set fire, and the people are not allowed to light lamps.

"Let me tell you, those princes and princes have nothing to do with us, so it's of no use." Zhu Yu pinched a piece of jujube cake and threw it into his mouth, and smiled at Zhou Yacha.

"Xiao Zhouzi, tomorrow I'm going to the county government office to find a shop to be the shopkeeper and do food business. You go shopping in the street every day, is there any small shop for sale near the county government office? Find me a good and affordable one, please You drink and eat meat~"

Hearing this, Zhou Yacha was overjoyed, patted the crumbs on his hands, and grabbed another handful of peanuts.

"That's great! But our county government is not located in a busy city, and the location is a bit near the end of the city, and there are not many residents around. I'm afraid you have to think again if you want to start a catering business~"

The county government is a bit broken, and it is the seat of the highest power in the county anyway, so naturally it can't be like a vegetable market every day for people to wander around.

Surrounded by large houses that are not next to each other, it is incomparable with the noisy and crowded alleys of residents, so they just try to be quiet.

Those who do food business are all concentrated in the busiest places on East and West Streets, choose a city end
If it weren't for being too familiar, he wouldn't be able to destroy her beautiful dreams.

"My girl said she wants that place, so don't worry about it." Zhu Yu waved his hand nonchalantly, "The smell of wine is not afraid of deep alleys, and the smell of my stewed meat can waft half a street, do you believe it?"

"Hehe." Zhou Yacha smiled perfunctorily, "I don't believe it."

Picking a load of dung and passing it through the street can smoke a whole street of Thaksin.It's not that there are no stewed meat shops in the county, and I haven't seen anyone who can smell fragrant for half a street.

"You don't understand this~" Zhu Yu took a sip of tea proudly, "We have a secret recipe, some seasonings I have never seen before, and the taste is different from those braised meat shops. Wait for our shop to It's open, I'll make a jug of wine and invite you to come and taste it!"

"Okay~ I'll take you to see the shop tomorrow, don't tell me, there are quite a few that are going to be sold. We don't like to be polite, invite us to drink and eat meat, and the brothers from the county government will definitely come to support you on the day your shop opens!"

Zhou Yachai's face was flushed, and his heart was full of joy.

The county is poor, the county government is poor, and a former magistrate who takes the people to drink blood and eat meat does not treat them as human beings.Here comes a new magistrate who is friendly to his subordinates but does not allow them to be domineering.

Everyone is suffering~
With that little monthly salary, the living conditions are about the same as ordinary residents in the county.You have to plan carefully when eating meat, and don't even think about drinking alcohol.

Unless the county magistrate has made great achievements and the court rewards him, he will definitely not take it all by himself.

The point is that there is nothing to reward now, but the law and order in the county is much better than before.

The two clerks carried a bag full of spiced peanuts and went out contentedly. After seeing off the guests, Zhu Yu began to scrub the small jars again.

"Girl, we still have a jar of oil-soaked fish pieces. I'll fill a small jar for each person, and let Ji Xiang and the others marinate it in a pot, cut it and mix it with those cold dishes. I will give it to the yamen in the county government to take home and add two more." Dish, do you think it's good?"

"what ever."

Shu Yingtong glanced at Zhu Yu lightly, this idiot is not an idiot, he is still very sophisticated in human relationships.

No matter how familiar you are, it is not the duty of others to ask for help.Send some cheap and reasonable food, so that those yamen servants will have face in front of their families, and at the same time sell themselves well.
