King Leng Chasing His Wife: The Maid in the Tongfang Runs With the Ball

Chapter 1044 The Emperor's Taxes

"However, this tax has the same requirements in each territory."

"It is very simple to hand over these taxes in the fertile place. After paying each year, there is still a lot of leftovers."

"But for a place as desolate as ours, every year is not enough."

"Even to pay these taxes, we have to sell property."

"After so many years, all the family property accumulated by our ancestors has almost been sold."

"But the taxes at the end of the year are not enough, and we don't even know what to do with it."

When Neil said this, he almost burst into tears. These days, he was worried about the tax at the end of the year.

Lin Jiumian couldn't help asking curiously:
"Can you tell me, how much tax do you need to pay every year?"

Neil was silent, feeling that there was nothing to hide.

Since they are all his women, they can be regarded as a family.

He finally had someone to confide in.

So he said: "The emperor requires each of our territories to pay a tax of 5000 taels of silver every year."

Lin Jiumian laughed when he heard this.

5000 taels, why is it so little?

As far as she knows, the taxes in different parts of Dongling are also different.

In the most barren places, only 3000 taels a year.

Because there is almost no tax in the whole city.

The common people also need relief food and relief money from the court every year.

You asked him to pay taxes, it was a dream.

But other than that, as long as other cities develop normally, they need about 1 taels of tax every year.

And like those rich cities and cities with a large population, they even have to pay 2 to 3.

The richest city also needs to pay 10 taels of silver every year.

But Hans the Great paid 5000 taels regardless of whether he was poor or rich.

She felt a little magical.

Then he asked again:
"Then how much is the real annual tax in Death God's Territory?"

This time, Neil replied without hesitation: "Let's not talk about previous years, let's talk about this year!"

"There are still two months until the end of the year."

"But so far the tax is only 1800 taels, which I just checked yesterday."

"Now all the valuable things in my mansion have been sold out, and I don't even know what to hand in at the end of this year."

Lin Jiumian was really shocked this time. It was only 1800 taels a year, which is really not much.

At this time, a thought suddenly came to her mind: "Lord, don't you have the idea of ​​running away from home this time?"

Seeing that the lord's carriage had already loaded a lot of things, she thought it was just going out to play.

How come there are so many things installed.

Now after hearing what the lord said, Lin Jiumian had the idea that the lord wanted to run away.

Let alone let her guess right.

The lord nodded and said:

"Rui Mian, you are such a caring Xie Yuhua, I really don't want to stay here anymore."

"Whoever wants to be the lord of this territory should go."

"Taking advantage of this opportunity, our family should hurry up and slip away!"

"Although I don't have much money anymore, I'm taking more than 1000 taels of silver with me for the tax of the territory this year!"

"It's enough to feed our family for several years."

"I'll talk about the rest later, anyway, I won't do this lord."

Lin Jiumian was speechless for a while, thinking: If you don't want to do it, you should have said it earlier!

Do I need to go to all lengths to drug you and fool you?
Lin Jiumian sighed softly and said, "My lord, if you really don't want to do it anymore, you might as well give me the position of lord."

Neil stared at Lin Jiumian in a daze.
