In the past few days, Chu Qiguang had long heard about the village chiefs rushing to collect grain, and they were looking for the poorest, weakest and easiest to bully villagers.

Since his father and brother went missing when they went to the mountains to cut firewood, Ergou's family was left with only three orphans and a widowed mother. They have become weak and bullied sheep in the eyes of some people in the village.

Butler Wang pointed his finger at Chu Qiguang and cursed angrily: "I've really rebelled against you! Do you know what it means to have a magistrate with flowing water and an iron-clad yamen? Do you want to kill the whole village?"

Chu Qiguang's eyes flashed. According to Ergou's memory and the intelligence collected by Chu Qiguang, according to the system of the Han Dynasty, the county government was responsible for managing the county town and several villages within its administrative region. Wangjiazhuang and nearby villages were all owned by Qingyang. County jurisdiction.

The administrative structure is very similar to the Ming Dynasty on Earth.

The situation in the county flashed through Chu Qiguang's mind like lightning, and he couldn't help but have an idea in his mind: 'The county government structure of the Han Dynasty is very similar to that of the Ming Dynasty, and it is no different when they collude with each other to exploit the people. Will this world be a parallel world? ’

But when he heard Butler Wang's accusation, Chu Qiguang didn't care. Judging from Ergou's memory, the Wang family, a small landowner, had very limited financial resources and connections. Most of the time, the Yamen was used to bluff people. of.

Feeling the relief of physical symptoms, Chu Qiguang said slowly: "The rich households in the village are evading taxes and labor, why should we come to make up for it?"

Steward Wang said in a cold tone: "Just wait. If my husband hadn't been kind and kind over the years and bought your land, you would have been arrested in the county, your property confiscated, and then exiled three thousand miles away!"

With that said, Butler Wang had already led two boys and walked towards the outside of the house.

The head of the village also stood up, looked at Ergou's mother and said, "The county is still waiting for a reply. There is still one month left for the payment deadline. By then, the food and tax revenue requested by the superiors will not be enough, and no one can even think about it. Better off."

Seeing the two people preparing to leave, Ergou's mother became a little panicked. Aunt Chen on the side said, "If we don't collect enough food tax, the folks in the nearby villages will be punished."

However, Chu Qiguang became more and more radiant as he talked, and all the symptoms of discomfort were gone. He simply continued: "Let the county investigate and find out who has the problem."

The head of the village glared, pointed at Chu Qiguang's face and said, "Just make a fuss. It's best if the whole village is implicated and everyone is finished together!"

…

In the earthen house, Ergou's mother watched everyone leave and became worried: "Gouzi, this is going to cause trouble in the county, what should we do?"

Chu Qiguang patted his mother on the shoulder: "Don't worry, mother, this matter won't cause trouble in the county. The Wang family concealed Ding Tian the most and evaded taxes the most.

There were no scholars or scholars in their family, so they relied on their past tyranny in the countryside and bribed a few scribes to hide it.

Even if we don't pay, they will collect the food tax. They didn't dare to expose the matter to the new magistrate. In that case, they would have to spend more money to buy the notice to the county, which would be much more than the few acres of land and the few taels of silver that our family can squeeze out. The Wang family is so petty that they are reluctant to part with it. "

Chu Qiguang shook his head: "They will definitely choose to resolve this matter in the village. According to their approach in previous years, they are just trying to convince people."

Ergou's mother was no less worried: "But if this happens..."

Chu Qiguang smiled, Chengzhu said in his chest: "It's okay, I have my own way."

Looking at the disappearing figures of Butler Wang, Chu Qiguang felt relieved. The original anxiety and boredom were instantly swept away. He stopped sweating, his legs stopped shaking, and there were no signs of the illness just now. Now, I feel like I can do it again.

Chu Qiguang thought with comfort and helplessness in his heart: "Sure enough, this is the problem... I am paying attention to dependent personality disorder. Apart from me, I have not found another person with this mental illness."

"Well, once you get addicted, if you don't criticize a few people who don't like it, or if you don't get some limelight, you will die of pain."

"Gan!"
