Chapter 147

A stone stirred up a thousand waves, and a notice from Zuofu soon brewed a storm in the city.

Shan Luochun, the owner of the largest Fuyou Commercial Firm in the area, looked gloomyly at the other merchants, and said, "Everyone, the magistrates of this county can say that if the business taxes owed over the years are not paid during the Mid-Autumn Festival, we will be killed." !"

"what!"

Tan Sidao, the owner of Qianmen Commercial Firm, sneered, "The tone is louder than that of a toad! She doesn't even ask, who is behind us? Pay back the commercial tax over the years? Since my great-grandfather, I have never paid commercial tax. Want to see how she recovers?!"

"Isn't it?"

Another merchant answered, "There are so many accounts over the years, how can she still calculate them clearly?"

"Oh, don't underestimate others."

Shan Luochun took a sip of tea, and said with a smile: "In the past and present, the first female official officially appointed by the imperial court, you are a family for nothing?"

"The rooster wakes up in the morning, the world is getting worse."

Tan Sidao sneered, "I don't know what ecstasy soup your majesty was given by her to let a woman become a magistrate."

"That woman is extremely ugly, and she looks like a man, just like a man."

"You can say so."

Shan Luochun smiled and said: "From a distance, his skin is shiny and white, and his stature is tall. If he enters the Hong Luan's tent, the two long legs will be quite interesting."

"Ha ha!"

Everyone laughed, "Dan Dong's taste is strange, I can't compare to that rude woman, watching it will give me nightmares."

"If you don't pay, you won't pay!"

Merchant B yelled: "Let's see what she can do to us! The lords above have already said that the cabinet didn't want to give credit to her father, so it fell on her! Let a woman be in front of our big lords. Dominating the boss, can those court elders agree?! Riding a donkey to read the libretto, let's wait and see!"

A group of merchants were chattering, and soon they united the front and resolutely refused to pay taxes!As for Zuo Fu, regardless of what these people thought, he dug through the copywriting materials in the county government, and after having people investigate, he directly set a base. From then on, a group of people were organized, and the version was moved again, and the accounts of each household were calculated within a month.

With a calculator, calculations are very fast.As for whether they have hidden their accounts, Zuo Fu has no control for the time being.

This time it is not so much about collecting taxes as it is about establishing prestige!
In a word, accept it first and then talk!

Soon, she posted another notice: Build the city wall!
After hearing the news, the folks at the end of the busy farming season immediately set off to return to the city. Soon, Changzhou, which had been empty for a period of time, became lively again.

The villagers worked hard, but the merchants were quiet, and no one came to pay taxes.A group of people who followed Zuo Fulai couldn't help being startled: It's obviously impossible to do this!

Even if some small merchants want to pay taxes, since the market is controlled by big merchants, how can they dare to come and pay?If it goes on like this, Zuo Fu will not receive a dime, and will become a laughing stock. This step, the county lord, seems to have made a mistake, and the gains outweigh the losses!

The servants are worried, but Zuofu is not worried, just eat, eat; sleep, sleep!It seems that they are not worried about whether these merchants will cheat or whether their reputation will be damaged...

In this way, the days are spent day by day under everyone's worries, and it will soon be the Mid-Autumn Festival.

This day Qiu Yunping got up early and came to the yamen. So far, Zuo Fu has not received a copper coin in tax. He really wants to see how this man will end up.

Hehe, these people haven't paid money since their grandparents, and she wants to collect money as soon as she comes?What a joke!Is it possible to eat the meat in your mouth and then spit it out?
So this joke must be seen, but he wants to see, what skills she has not used!
Zuo Fu also got up very early this day, and she put on the court clothes that belonged to the seventh-rank civil servants.And Song Yu also arrived outside the yamen early. After more than a month of Li Xiang and Zuo Fu's feeding at all costs, the military households in Chaojingmen have the appearance of soldiers, and they look very energetic.

At this moment, these soldiers were standing in line outside the yamen, wearing black bunts with their arms exposed.If there are people from later generations present at the scene, they will know at a glance that this is a security uniform.The thousands of households in the Chaojing Gate Guards did not need to go to the battlefield. To distinguish them from the regular army of the Jiangdong Gate, Zuo Fu bought them all security uniforms.

As for the yamen servants in the yamen, Zuo Fu also changed their clothes, and all of them put on blue police uniforms without epaulets.

Of course, this kind of treatment is only available to those who are obedient and close to Zuo Fu. Others wear whatever they like, and they will not take them with them anyway.

A group of people are ready to go, holding 3.5 explosion-proof shields in their hands, and they are assigned to a group of three with a retractable stainless steel explosion-proof steel fork, foot fork, and waist fork. They all wear cut-resistant gloves on their hands and PC black helmets on their heads. There is also a 54cm PC stick pinned to the waist, which can be said to be armed to the teeth.

Qiu Yunping, who was going to watch a joke, came to the yamen and saw such a scene. If Zuo Fu hadn't stood there lecturing, he almost thought it was a rebellion!
After being frightened again, he looked at the equipment of these people again and almost peed in fright.

God!
What is this for? !These things are weird, but this does not hinder Qiu Yunping's understanding.These weird-looking things are dangerous at first glance. What are they going to do?fight?To collect money?

His brain froze, and then his face turned pale.

With a trembling voice, he stepped forward and said, "My lord, what are you going to do?"

Zuo Fu glanced at him, and said in a cool voice, "Catch someone."

"Catch, catch who?"

"My official notice is clearly written. Anyone who dares not to pay the business tax will bear the consequences!"

"You, are you trying to catch merchants?!"

Qiu Yunping exclaimed, "Reverse, reverse, you, you are trying to arouse public anger!"

"how come?"

Zuo Fu smiled, pointed at the people gathered in front of the yamen, and said: "Just now I posted another notice that the people's livelihood in Changzhou is in decline. This season, the agricultural tax is exempted for less than ten mu of land. Tax, the monthly transaction is less than 50 taels and no tax is paid, you see, the people are happy!"

"You, how can you change the law of the country without authorization?! This is Taizu..."

"how?"

With a cold face, Zuo Fu stared at Qiu Yunping suspiciously and said: "The county magistrate also knows that the Taizu has set the rules? The thirty-one tax is also the rule set by the Taizu. How can merchants not have to pay if they are not engaged in production Taxes, but farmers have to pay taxes? That's fine, don't talk about it..."

Zuo Fu stared at Qiu Yunping and said every word: "Since the county magistrate is here, let's go collect taxes with me. Today, I will teach these merchants how to behave! Who dares to break the rules set by the Taizu? Anyone will be paraded in the street and scolded! Both left and right, listen to the order! Look left and right, turn right, the target, Henan Xiang Fuyou Commercial Firm!"
