Mixing ancient times with Taobao

Chapter 145

Changzhou is a thousand-year-old capital, and the facilities in the city are relatively complete.There is already a bluestone road as a base, so there is no need to dig the foundation, do filling, and layer-by-layer bedding. You only need to mix the cement and yellow sand, and then lay the ground directly.

Of course, the level of roads created in this way can't even meet the standards of rural roads in later generations, but there are not so many vehicles now, and the wear and tear is relatively small, so it is enough to make do with it.It's okay to wait until Wujiang County has enough financial revenue in the future to consider renovating.

It is for this reason that the road construction journey, which seemed very difficult to the ancients, becomes very simple in Wujin City.The road built was not only beautiful, but also surprisingly fast, which shocked a group of squires silently wondering whether this county lord and that Taoist are really immortals?
Compared with the squires, the common people are much more forthright.Seeing that the roads in this city changed every day, they all admired them.The magistrate of the county came here a lot of time, but his actions were swift. Because of the road construction, the city's economy has also improved.

With so many villagers flooding into the city, how can food, clothing, housing and transportation not cost money?Some people provide food now, but these people still have to live, right?For a time, the rental industry in the city was extremely prosperous. Those urban residents who had houses at home tried their best to vacate their houses. Although these villagers did not have much money, it was possible for several people to rent a house together. This is very important for these urban residents It is also a good income.

With some money in hand, it is natural to spend it.Things that are usually reluctant to buy are gradually added, and even the business in the city has prospered a lot, and the number of times vendors purchase goods has also increased significantly.

In this way, the boatmen who rely on the boat for food also have more work, and they can save money for those who greet and deliver every day.

As the army of road construction became larger and larger, all the people at the bottom felt a change for the better.Although it is very hidden now, everyone feels that life seems to have become hopeful?
Another group of people gathered outside the city, and the craftsmen brought by Zuo Fu are leading a group of villagers to build prefabricated houses.

More and more people came to work, and even people from nearby counties were attracted by January.Since the Song Dynasty, the city of Changzhou has shrunk a lot. In order to cope with the increasing number of migrant workers, Zuo Fu had to build prefabricated houses outside the city so that more people could have a place to live.

Of course, there is a fee for this.After all, she is not a great saint, she can do charity once in a while, but if she continues to operate like this for a long time, sooner or later her finances will be dragged down.

In order to restrain Qiu Yunping, Zuo Fu had to pay back the losses over the years. Playing this card would only make Qiu Yunping more unscrupulous, and he could completely push the responsibility to his predecessor, so the effect of playing this card was not very effective, so he decided not to play it.

Faced with this shortfall, she had to deal with it, so she also had to collect some money. Of course, this money will not go into the Yamen public store for the time being, and coins from the Ming Dynasty can be sold on Taobao!And some of them are worth a lot of money. If you exchange them for space-time coins and buy the materials needed for production, you still make money!

As for the deficit of the Yamen?Zuo Fu looked at the accounts, and found that many merchants and local tyrants have not paid taxes for N years, so after the people's hearts stabilize, let these people fill in the gaps, and when they are filled, it will not be too late to clean up Qiu Yunping! !
The commercial tax of the Ming Dynasty was [-] and [-] tax, and the tax was so low that they still didn’t pay the tax. The strange magistrate even listed that he would not collect the commercial tax to show his magnanimity. It was simply sick!Zuo Fu doesn't want to be famous. Merchants have far more oil and water than farmers. These people have to be severely punished if they don't pay taxes. A country is unstable without agriculture and rich without business. Although she is an economical novice, this The simple truth is still understandable!
Rows of mobile model houses were quickly built, and the conditions of the villagers were not high. They were very happy to see this good house for them to live in, equipped with mats, and the fee charged was only [-] Wen per person per month. , Work harder!

The speed of road construction was very fast. Changzhou City in the Ming Dynasty was not very big, and there were as many as [-] villagers gathered here, so by autumn, the roads in the city had basically been repaired!And a group of squires also began to feel uneasy: This county lord seems to be quite capable, so many villagers entered the city, but nothing happened!
Those who can draw people's hearts together, this is the greatest ability!
Moreover, they also saw that she fulfilled all her promises!Now all the people in Changzhou are saying that she is good. It must cost her a lot to build a road, but she has won the hearts of the people. If she raises her arms at this time, I am afraid that even the magistrate will be courteous...

perhaps……

Time to get in touch?
It's a pity that Zuo Fu didn't give them a chance!
After the villagers returned to their hometown for farming, Zuo Fu posted a notice: The commercial tax of [-] and [-] was set by the Taizu. After checking a certain store, a certain commercial company owed a huge amount of commercial tax, which was limited to before the Mid-Autumn Festival. Pay it off, or you will be responsible for the consequences!
A group of merchants were dumbfounded!

They haven't paid the money since their grandparents, why are they suddenly going to pay it now?Is the county magistrate implying that they want to give benefits?

This thought, yes!
In the past, when the magistrate of the county came, who wouldn't give gifts?But because it was the female county magistrate who came back, none of them gave any benefits, so this is to collect money?
Some people are thinking that they are seeking to see Zuo Fu by using their connections.How did he know that Zuo Fu avoided seeing him, and only said one sentence, until the arrears of commercial taxes are not paid, not a single merchant will be seen!

Not only that, but she also posted a notice: Once again, if the payment of commercial tax is delayed, the penalty will be doubled, don't say it is unpredictable!
Depend on!
A group of people cursed!

You little girl has only been here for a few days, and after gathering a few muddy legs, you start to get carried away?Want to take them under the knife? !no way!

If you don't pay, let's see what you can do. Can you lock them all up?

"You really say that?"

Cui Yushu from the magistrate's office was stunned when he heard Zhao Xin's report!
Is this woman a fool?These merchants seem to be the lowest class, but which one of them has no power to rely on?Attempt to use intimidation to force people to pay taxes?Isn't this a murder? !And it has a bad reputation!The dignified county magistrate actually likes Adu's things and forces businessmen to pay taxes. Does this mean that he wants to be sprayed to death by Shilin? !

Cui Yushu frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "You found someone and asked Song Yusong Qianhu from the Chaojing gate guard to visit the next county magistrate, and said that the old man agreed."

Xin Zhao was surprised, "My lord, didn't you say not to let our people get involved?"

Cui Yushu took out a residence report and said: "A few days ago, the Tartars once again organized boats to cross the river, and they were about to touch the river, but they were blasted back by the heartless cannon invented by the county lord. Some people came, but they were all chased away by her father. Once again, the Tartars were defeated. This time, those people in the upper echelons can't pretend to be deaf and dumb, so they must be rewarded..."

Xin Zhao took a look at the mansion newspaper, and said in shock, "You've been promoted again? Commander?! And a town of troops?"

Cui Yushu nodded, "Song Yu is not on the same side as us. The old man has been suppressing him because of his relationship in Beijing. But now it seems that there is no need to suppress him. If this tartar does not retreat for a day, no one can shake Zuo Muqing. And today, when we are in trouble, we will rely on the protection of the left, even if there are any changes in the future, as long as it is not a crime of treason, and we will retire after success, there will always be a good end."

He paused and said again: "Then Song Yu is not at ease, she wanted to rely on the road of the county lord, but now the country's affairs are difficult, although I am a mediocre official, I don't want to ruin the country and family, so I stand in her way Stop, let's leave a good relationship..."

　Finished writing, there have been few updates in the past two days, please bear with me!Wait for the matter to be resolved, and make a better change!
