Back Off, Let Me Come

Chapter 331 331: Spring Plowing Sacrifice [Please vote]

Although this world is a bit chaotic, it is still very simple to a certain extent. After all, they have never thought of such an outrageous "reasonable tax avoidance" method! Merchants also know that the laws are imperfect and there are many ways to take advantage of them.

But their method is to repeatedly jump across the baseline.

If those in power are unhappy, you can always mess with them.

Looking back at the method proposed by Shen Tang...

To be honest, Wu Xian’s blood pressure would skyrocket after hearing that! You must know that the current various tax items are basically one is one, and two is two. They are listed clearly in one column and one row. Just pay taxes accordingly! Not to mention a traditional businessman like Xu Jie.

He looked at her almost as if he didn't recognize Shen Tang at all, and after a long while he opened his mouth and uttered a sentence: "This, this... if I do this, my lord will be furious..."

Xu Jie had never seen Wu Xian lose his temper and jump into a rage. But he had a hunch that if he really did this, he would be lucky enough to see it.

Shen Tang just smiled: "Why is he angry?"

Xu Jie fell silent.

Shen Jun actually had the nerve to ask Wu Xian why he was angry?

Then Shen Tang said shamelessly: "He shouldn't be angry, but should be grateful to us. Tell me, which of the methods I listed above can't be used? Take 'distribution', the customer spends it The money was used to buy other goods, and I only spent one tael on wine. If we had to pay the wine tax, we also had to pay one tael. Did we evade taxes? No, we paid the wine tax honestly."

"The blind box lottery is also the same." Shen Tang carefully broke the things into pieces, forced them into Xu Jie's little head, and frantically sold Amway to Xu Jie and brainwashed him, "Are the customers paying for wine? No, buy it. It’s a lottery qualification, it’s a game! Wine is a prize for customers to play games! Which law currently imposes taxes on free prizes?”

Xu Jie said with difficulty: "No..."

Shen Tang emotionally slapped his vest.

"That's right! Since they couldn't find anything unreasonable about us after searching through the laws, then we are reasonable! Since it is reasonable, then it is allowed! Since it is allowed, then we can do it. of!"

Xu Jie's eyes became speechless - he suspected that Jun Shen had been replaced by a civet cat for the crown prince! How could these words come from the mouth of the sincere, enthusiastic, kind and kind-hearted Mr. Shen?

impossible!

Absolutely impossible!

"Annotations."

There was still a smile on Shen Tang's lips.

But the sound of "annotation" made his spine tingle slightly.

It felt very much like Wu Xian's cold tone when his brothers were stabbed, and he wished he could kill each other with his own hands. It was also at that time that he saw the ruthlessness in Wu Xian! However, this feeling is fleeting, so fast that people think it is an illusion.

Shen Tang asked: "There must be one of them available, right?"

There is a bit of "coercion" in this statement.

Just like Wu Xian's previous "threat" to Shen Tang.

She forced Xu Jie to "reasonably avoid taxes"!

"Of course." Xu Jie felt uncomfortable under the pressure and managed a smile, "Xu just learned today what 'listening to your words is worth ten years of reading'. I think Mr. Shen is quite talented in the businessman's way. If he concentrates on business, You will definitely be a millionaire in the future!"

Shen Tang said, "Merchant? That's not possible."

"Why? Doesn't Mr. Shen like merchants too?"

Shen Tang shook his head and said bluntly: "Never before, merchants also have their own meaning of existence. But I may not have heard of this slang - if you don't store grain, don't store guns, your home will be a granary; if you don't store guns, then there will be granaries everywhere. . Merchants have money but do not have the matching force to support them. They do not engage in production but have the ability to collect all the money. Sooner or later, they will become grain reserves in the eyes of jackals, tigers and leopards."

She patted the stiff-faced Xu Jie on the shoulder.

"It's better for others to have it than for me to have it!"

Why do you have to choose one or the other?

Adults, want them all!

After scaring Xu Jie, Shen Tang's inner anger was relieved by three points, but there were still seven points left that she needed to digest alone.

From all the way, Gu Chi could hear Shen Tang's thoughts as if he had eaten firecrackers, cursing and greeting Wu Xian and Xu Jie, the pair of principals. Chu Yao, who was coming with him, stopped and looked at him doubtfully: "Why can't I go in to watch the tide?"

Gu Chi smiled bitterly.

If you extend your head, it will be a knife, and if you shrink your head, it will be a knife. Just as he was hesitating whether to go in, he heard a "come in" sound coming from inside the house.

The two looked at each other and stepped in at the same time.

There was still anger left on Shen Tang's face.

"Why is my lord angry?" Chu Yao bent down and tidied up the books on the low table that Shen Tang had overturned, "Because of Xu Jie?"

They also received news that Xu Jie was here.

"You will know after you take a look." Shen Tang handed the several volumes of account books sent by Xu Jie to the two of them. They read them at a glance and exchanged information with each other, with a flash of understanding in their eyes.

Shen Tang wished he could overturn the low table in front of him as if it were Xu Jie, and said angrily: "Guess what he said?"

Chu Yao asked gently: "What?"

“The seedlings are all good seedlings.”

Chu Yao's Chinese translation: "It's just a little expensive?"

“Although the farm equipment is not brand new, it is better because of its low price!”

Chu Yao smiled and said: "It is probably an old thing that has been used in previous years. It is not so bad that it cannot be used, but it probably won't last long."

Shen Tang became even angrier when he heard this, and gritted his teeth: "The farm cattle are all old cattle who have served for many years and have rich experience!"

Chu Yao and Gu Chi looked at each other.

Gained further understanding of the treachery of merchants.

"Is that an old cow that has passed its prime?"

Shen Tang slapped the low table and made a clanging sound.

"Listen! Wu Zhaode and Xu Wenzhu asked us, is this a garbage recycling station? Is it a swill bucket for swill treatment? We spent more than 2,300 taels on these wretched things, and we stole the change! We are bullying! You are too harsh! You are really bullying others too much!"

Chu Yao and I could only persuade Shen Tang with your words.

They were mentally prepared for Wu Zhaode and his two men's saucy operations - how could Wu Zhaode watch his own 10,000 taels of silver flow into Shen Tang's hands? It's impossible not to do something.

My lord suffered a loss that he didn't understand.

Shen Tang twitched the corner of his mouth, sneered, and swore loudly: "But I also sent the first army back. If you tricked me once, can you trick me again and again? If you don't completely separate Wu Zhaode and Xu Wenzhu, I, Shen Youli, will Just write the character backwards!"

I feel like saying such harsh words is not enough.

"It's the puppy who can't do what he says!"

Chu Yao: "..."

Gu Chi: "..."

In fact, they also admired Wu Xian and Xu Jie for being able to push Shen Tang to this level!

It’s amazing!

Shen Tang fanned himself with his hands.

The brain calmed down and reason returned.

"Is something wrong with Wu Hui and Wang Chao Lai?"

The grass-roots team with "poor" and "007" as its corporate culture began a crazy involution under the leadership of boss Shen Tang. Unless there is something special, Shen Tang usually won't see these two.

Chu Yao: "Sacrifice for spring plowing."

"Spring Plowing Sacrifice?"

The river blooms in February and spring warms in March.

After this snow ends, the weather will get warmer day by day.

In order to pray for a good harvest in the new year, there will be an activity to worship the spring god Jumang before the start of spring plowing, which is intended to bring good luck.

Chu Yao and others are not very interested in this kind of activity, but they can't help ordinary people believe that without sacrifices, nothing is missing.

If a famine occurs in this year, it will be easily blamed by the common people for "disrespecting the Spring God, which will make the Spring God angry", and it can easily be taken advantage of by people with ulterior motives. When people's hearts are in chaos, chaos will arise.

"If that's the case, then let's do it."

A formality would save trouble, and she was happy with it.

However, Shen Tang didn't expect that she would be involved here.

Before the spring plowing ceremony begins, a respected local elder will serve as the commissary and read aloud an article written in advance to worship the spring god. He may also read and sing a poem related to farming.

Then burn the article and convey it to the spring god in heaven.

After that comes the “performance” part.

The oxen were ordered to plow the fields, and the wooden plows were used to cut the land.

The food seeds will then be sown by the chief minister.

Others followed behind, handling farm tools.

A group of people are in full swing in the field showing the scene of farming. Afterwards, animals were sacrificed to the God of Spring, and the chief of society led the crowd to burn incense and pray. After everything is over, the common people who participated in the event can get some of the meat after the sacrifice.

Even this "dividing livestock meat" is very particular.

Whose family is rich, who is poor, whose family has more land, who has less land, who has seniority, who has great fame...the size and parts of the meat that can be divided are different. This little "distribution of animal meat" is full of human feelings and sophistication...

Shen Tang: "...I have to do the same?"

It’s a complete nightmare for sociophobic people!

Chu Yao shook his head: "Yes and no."

The procedures he mentioned are generally carried out by villages and clans. Shen Tang is the county guard. The procedures for spring plowing and sacrifice are similar. You can divide the livestock meat however you like.

He wouldn't have any problem with anyone else anyway.

Shen Tang: "..."

They handed over another brochure.

It records the distribution of farmland, farm tools, cattle, and seedlings. Because the project of re-registering the people of Fugu City has been completed, this did not take much time.

Xu Jie and Wu Xian made a fuss about oxen and farm tools, but the impact was not big. Anyway, they are either using oxen to plow the land, or Zhao Feng is a little tired - hehe, after all, they are not brave warriors of their own, so they use Don't feel bad!

As for growing seedlings and grain, the quantity is abundant.

Solve urgent needs.

Shen Tang read the entire booklet word for word and sentence for sentence.

Let out a long sigh of relief.

This is the only good news today.

Shen Tang pointed to the record of the wooden plow, a farm tool, and said, "Go back and find two carpenters. There is a lot to be done with the wooden plow."

Today's wooden plows are all straight-shaft wooden plows.

It is bulky, difficult to turn, and has low farming efficiency.

Shen Tang can't always rely on Wudan warriors to plow the land. After all, Wudan warriors' home field will be on the battlefield for a long time in the future, not farmland. Improving the wooden plow is the way to go.

Chu Yao and Chu Yao didn't ask anything, just said "wei".

Although their protagonist is young and often talkative, he is absolutely reliable when he should be reliable. In other words, cynicism is just a mask for her to hide her true face.

Shen Tang rubbed his sore eyebrows.

After thinking about it, I still can't think of anything missing.

He said, "That's it for now."

The ice and snow are melting, and it’s time for spring plowing.

Shen Tang has been doing homework these days. After all, it is the first time to host a spring plowing ceremony, so he must be familiar with the process. Xu Jie left five days before the start of spring plowing. After all, Tianhai had the same custom, and he was going to be there as an important member of Wu Xian's account.

Shen Tang secretly shrugged and didn't force him to stay.

I just reminded him of "reasonable tax avoidance" on the day of farewell.

Xu Jie smiled reluctantly and left with fifty jars of "last year's limited edition" spiritual wine - if he hadn't stopped it, Shen Tang would have wanted to encourage him to set a limited edition year and package it to slaughter the big fat sheep.

Xu Jie: "..."

No need to.

One "reasonable tax avoidance" is enough to make the lord angry.

On the day of spring plowing, the sky was sunny and the breeze was gentle.

Everything went well during the ceremony——

How big (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻

A bad start!

"Qi Yuanliang! Look at the good things your cat has done!"

Shen Tang's blood pressure suddenly increased.

Unexpectedly, the cheat sheet he had made was ruined by Su Shang's urine. Su Shang, who already had the size of an adult beautiful cat, saw that the situation was not good, so he exerted all his strength and rushed towards his own excrement officer. He meows softly in his mouth, and his tone is coquettish and tactful.

As a little beauty from Sushang who has a literary scholar as a shit shoveler, she has been very active in the past few months. She is obviously a little female cat, but she has a round face. A pair of round eyes that make people's hearts tremble. Who can refuse them?

At least I pray that the shit-shoveling official can’t do it!

He couldn't even bear to catch mice with Su Shang, he wished he could dry and clean every mouse and send them to others' plates!

"Lord, what is this?"

Shen Tang held his nose with one hand and twirled a corner of the cheat sheet with his fingers on the other hand: "Look at the good things it did! This is a memorial that I specially prepared, and I almost went bald for it!"

Unfortunately, there is no network disk backup yet!

Qi Shan frowned and looked at Su Shang Maomao, who was coquettishly and stroking her breasts in his arms, with an innocent look on her face: "Master, do you still remember?"

"Do you remember what you wrote every day?"

Qishan is upright: "Yes."

"But I won't!"

Too bad!

It’s too late to write another article now.

Shen Tang had to search hard to think of a suitable article.

Qi Shan knew a lot, but each article was obscure and lengthy. In addition, the time was approaching, and Shen Tang was anxious and couldn't remember it for some reason. In the end, I had to break the jar.

"Forget it, let's just improvise."

The long one is hard to do, but the short one is fine.

Shen Tang was dressed in county guard attire and hurried over with his skirt in hand. Almost all the officials in the office were present.

Qi Shan, Kang Shi, Chu Yao, Gu Chi, and Gong Shuwu were in the first row behind Shen Tang, followed by senior officials with all qualifications from Fu Guzhi, and then followed by Li Li, Bai Su, Lin Feng, Yu Zi, Tu Rong... In fact, Zhao Feng should also be in the front row, but he was under Wu Xian's account after all. He declined the invitation and only brought a few close officials to watch the excitement in the front row of the crowd.

Occasionally you can hear the crowd whispering.

If you listen carefully, it all has something to do with Bai Su and Lin Feng.

It turns out that the Spring Plowing Ceremony in Fugu City is a very serious occasion, and women are not allowed to participate, but can only watch.

But Shen Tang allowed it, and it was difficult for officials to stop him.

The common people did not dare to make any noise in public because of Shen Tang.

In front of the sacrificial altar.

Shen Tang secretly took a deep breath.

She chose a very familiar poem.

Well, that's the only thing she can think of right now.

The onlookers held their breaths, and then heard the beautiful county guard say in his unique clear voice: "The God of Spring is above, Shen Youli, the governor of Heyin County in Xiaguan, led all the officials under his control, here to pray for the people of Heyin May the harvest be prosperous in the new year.”

"The God of Spring is kind and blessing."

"I wish - one grain of millet is planted in spring and ten thousand grains are harvested in autumn!"

The next sentence is that there is no idle land in the world, and farmers will starve to death.

Too unlucky.

What she wants is that no more people will starve to death under her rule!

_(:3 ∠)_

After hesitating for a long time, I felt that there was no better agricultural production increase buff than this one.

Shiitake feels that she is really too fat, and her endocrine disorder is extremely serious. She is so cruel that she plans to sign up for a weight loss training camp next week. I don’t believe she won’t be able to lose weight!
