The people who were clamoring for opposition just now were all quiet at this moment, and even the troops were pulled out. How can they object?Whoever dares to say anything else will bear the brunt of it.

The Zhu family was brought down by Li Yi'an in a similar way. Their second- and third-rate small families can be rectified without much effort.

Therefore, everyone chose to remain silent, and the arrogance just now disappeared.

Seeing that they had no other reaction, Li Yi'an said again: "The appearance of soldiers and horses from the Eastern Dao in the south of the Yangtze River is really for the peace of Hangzhou, not to deal with you. If you have any opinions, just raise them, and I will definitely listen to them."

Being able to listen and being able to obey are two different concepts. Li Yi'an probably just listened to it and let it go.

For the sake of Hangzhou's stability, they couldn't believe a single word Li Yi'an said, and still had no other reaction.

"Since everyone no longer opposes it, I will finalize this system. Tonight I will write a memorial and report it to Chang'an. Everyone's taxes on domestic slaves must be sent as soon as possible within these ten days."

Li Yi'an smiled slightly, and said again: "This is thanks to Liu Shijun and Patriarch Zhao's support. I didn't expect Liu Shijun to consider so much for the people of Hangzhou, but I locked him up. This is my sin!"

"Come here, collect all the taxes paid by Patriarch Zhao!"

Seeing that no one dared to object any more, the people in the Governor's Mansion hurriedly transported the cartloads of money into the gate.

Then, people from other aristocratic families in Hangzhou dispersed in a rush, and they all went home to figure out what to do to pay less taxes. They also had a lot of domestic slaves.

These faults all came from Zhao Zhide, so many people in the field looked at Zhao Zhide, full of resentment.

I can't wait to kill him with my eyes.

"Zhao Zhide, you already have today, hahaha..."

Zhu Rong watched the scene just now. Others may not dare to say anything to Zhao Zhide, but he is different, and said coldly: "You think you can fly to the sky if you climb Li Yi'an, I tell you absolutely Impossible, you are doomed, Li Yi'an came here to rectify your so-called aristocratic families, hahaha..."

Hearing Zhu Rong's words, Zhao Zhide suddenly felt furious, and said angrily, "Drag him down and beat him!"

This beating was unavoidable for Zhu Rong.

He left the governor's mansion with wounds all over his body, came to a corner of the city, and walked into a dilapidated courtyard, which was the only residence of their Zhu family at present.

"The hope of our Zhu family is coming!"

As soon as he entered the door, he heard Zhu Wenguang say excitedly: "Patriarch Yu sent someone to tell me that Duke Yu is about to return to Jiangnan from Chang'an, and it was delayed by the heavy rain for half a month. As long as he comes this time, Li Yi'an will die." deal."

Li Yi'an at this moment has arrived in the prison in Hangzhou.

"Liu Shijun, it feels good to be in prison, isn't it?"

Li Yi'an looked at him with a smile, and asked again: "Do you want to go out?"

"Yes, of course!"

Liu Tongfang quickly jumped up and said excitedly, "But Li Zhan, are you willing to let me go?"

Li Yi'an nodded slightly and said, "I'm about to let you go, but you have to agree to one condition and do one thing for me. Of course, you can also refuse. In this case, I will report it to the court and wait for the people from the Ministry of Punishment to arrest you. Take it back and dispose of it."

Liu Tongfang just wanted to leave this poor place. If he was taken away by the Ministry of Criminal Justice, even if he didn't die, he would have to lose his skin. He quickly said, "As long as Li Zhan can let me go, I can do whatever you want me to do."

Li Yi'an smiled lightly: "This matter is also very simple. You help me collect taxes. As long as I am satisfied with what I do, it is not a problem to let you go."

"Yes, I can!"

Liu Tongfang said quickly.

"Come here, let Mr. Liu come out."

Li Yian shouted loudly.

An hour later.

Liu Tongfang changed his clothes, stood in the main hall of the governor's mansion, carefully looked at the taxes to be collected, and was suddenly stunned, feeling like he was in a thief's boat again.

"Li Zhan, how can this kind of tax be collected at will?"

Liu Tongfang knew that if he did this, he would definitely be sprayed to death by the aristocratic family in Hangzhou, or even the entire aristocratic family in Jiangnan.

Many people will be offended.

"If you can't collect it, go back and continue to lock it up. I have plenty of people who can help me collect it."

Li Yi'an's surprise at him was expected.

"It's about Li Zhan, will something happen if you do this?"

Liu Tongfang thought about it again, Li Yi'an came from Chang'an, if he dared to do this, maybe he got some kind of order, maybe he could fight hard, hug this thigh for the second time, maybe there would be unexpected gains.

Li Yi'an also got Liu Tongfang out because he was afraid of accidents, and Zhao Zhide also publicly stated that he had already discussed with Liu Tongfang, and if something happened, they would take most of the blame.

"Do you think something might happen to me?"

Li Yi'an said disapprovingly: "Come here, since Shijun Liu is unwilling to do this, and bring him back to prison, I will write a document and report it to His Majesty!"

"No, I'll do it, I'll do everything!"

Liu Tongfang hurriedly shouted.

If the things here are really reported back to Chang'an, he knows that he will die for sure.

If he could cooperate with Li Yi'an, he might be able to atone for his sins. He decided that he really had to fight.

"Liu Shijun is indeed a person who understands current affairs!"

Li Yi'an said with a smile: "Then please wait a while, Shijun Liu, I have to write out the complete plan, and you can collect taxes according to my plan."

Casually dismissing him aside, Li Yi'an combined the two tax laws discussed with Li Shimin before, and part of Wang Anshi's reform, together with his recent experiences in Hangzhou, and wrote them down in detail.

But writing these things takes time and energy.

Li Yi'an wrote from noon until evening, and then he wrote the first draft, thinking in his heart that there was Shang Yang's reform before, and then there was Wang Anshi's reform.

"This is called Li Yi'an Reform!"

In any case, it is a pilot project and then promotion. In the process of practice, if there are any problems, they can be revised in time, and the first draft can be used first.

He was muttering in his heart, then glanced at Liu Tongfang who was still standing aside, and said, "Liu Shijun, why are you still standing here? Since you are so energetic, this is my first draft. You should take a look at it first. If you don't If there is a problem, implement it according to this."

Liu Tongfang almost cursed in his heart, thinking that I am standing here, isn't it all you asked for?

But after reading the plan, Liu Tongfang was surprised.

Leaving aside the part that deliberately targets the aristocratic family, he also has to admit that this tax plan is very detailed and complete, and it is much better than the one currently used by the imperial court.

Liu Tongfang finally understood why His Majesty asked him to inspect Hangzhou.

Without any strength, can you let him come at will?
