Valley Emperor

Vol 2 Chapter 449: This is simply destroying the bribery market!

In view of the increasing size of the tax inspection team, and its role is becoming more and more important, it must be known that the current supply of military rations in the Datang Dynasty is supported by the Ministry of Taxation, and the Ministry of Taxation collects taxes.

The tax collection for ordinary farmers and small businessmen is relatively smooth, but the tax collection for those big businessmen and landlords has never been so smooth, especially in some newly occupied areas, the big landlords and businessmen conceal their income and evade taxes. That is universal, and armed resistance to taxes is not uncommon.

At this time, the tax inspection team is in use. If the tax inspection team is not enough, it will request the assistance of the local robbery camp, and in the end, they will often fail!

The tax inspection team is so important, so Li Xuan must pay attention to it. He has specially ordered the tax inspection team under the Grain Collection Department to continue to expand its scale and set up according to the region. Initially, each county will set up a team. There are dozens to hundreds of people in the establishment, and they are directly under the dual leadership of the government tax officials and the higher-level tax officials.

In view of some counties, large populations, or relatively developed businesses, the size of the tax inspection team can be increased to hundreds of people accordingly.

However, only the local tax inspection team is directly set up at the county level, but not at the prefecture or even smaller town and village level, because the tax inspection team of the Tang Dynasty mainly targeted local landlords and Big businessmen, a few tax inspection teams at the town and village levels are useless. If they are set up in the prefecture, it is difficult to understand the details of the following counties. Therefore, the activities of the tax inspection teams are mainly concentrated at the county level, the prefecture and even higher levels. Most of the tax collection work above the province is coordinated.

The main job of these tax inspection teams is to assist tax officials to carry out tax work and combat tax evasion.

Because most of the members of the tax inspection team are from the local green-skinned hooligans, they are more familiar with the local situation than the outside Datang tax officials.

When encountering a company that refuses to pay the tax, you can immediately lead the team to kill you, and then come to a classic saying of the tax inspection team: "Fellow, open the door!"

Now in Xingquan Mansion and Liping Mansion, people, especially those merchants and gentry landlords, are not afraid of the local officials of the Tang Dynasty, and they are not even very afraid of the army, because whether they are officials or the army, they all want to Those who follow the rules will not harass the place at will.

But they fear and hate tax officials, especially the tax inspection team under the Ministry of Taxation!

In the words of those gentry landlords, the tax inspection team is even more hated than the worst corrupt officials of the Ming Dynasty!

Looking at it this way, the tax inspection team is simply outraged!

Why? Because many gentry landlords and merchants have been raided by the tax inspection team for tax evasion and tax evasion.

So much so that the local gentry in Xingquan Prefecture tried to write to the Tang Dynasty, saying that the people of the tax inspection team harmed a lot of people, and asked for a strict investigation!

As a result, within two days, people from the tax inspection team came to him, and then took out a lot of evidence of his tax evasion and tax evasion, and directly arrested people and ransacked his home!

Now, in Xingquan Mansion, many people know that in this part of Xingquan Mansion, you can secretly call Li Xuan a rebel, you can even be a spy of the Ming army, but you must not evade taxes, otherwise those who eat The bare-bones tax inspection team will be there tomorrow.

Usually at that time, it is often the end of the dead and broken, and there is no exception! Because few people's butts are clean, almost all of them will have tax problems, and it is guaranteed that one will be caught, but most of the time, tax officials will turn a blind eye to this, after all, not all Killed it all.

After the famous tax inspector stationed in Huaiyuan County, the first thing was to recruit troops and horses, and then to sort out the list of big businessmen and big landlords in Huaiyuan County. What will they do next? Naturally, they will collect taxes one by one according to the list !

What, you said that the autumn food has been handed in?

Shit, the tax you paid before was handed over to the hypocrites, what does it have to do with our Tang Dynasty, and your family has hundreds of acres of land, all of which have to be taxed, what, you said that the owner of your family has Famous, gentry tax-free? Don't worry, we, the Tang Dynasty gentry, pay taxes as one, and you have to pay as much tax as you have!

Besides, if you don't look for you big landowners to collect taxes, is it possible that I still have to look for those poor people who can't squeeze out a few copper coins to collect taxes? In this way, when will the taxation quota of Laozi be completed, and Laozi will go there to make money!

Pay the autumn tax in a hurry, or I will let you know how powerful our tax inspection team is!

And at this time, these landlords often come up with money to bribe!

And of course you can't expect the integrity of the tax inspection team from these green-skinned hooligans, they will accept the bribe at the first time, and then they will instantly turn their face and say: "Bold, you dare to bribe the tax officials of Datang, and you are impatient. Come on, raid the house!"

After all this tossing, you can always receive satisfactory taxes, and the members of the tax inspection team who go to work are also bulging in their pockets!

Why are so many scumbags actively participating when the tax inspection team recruits soldiers and horses, because being a clerk in the tax inspection team has a great chance of making money!

Moreover, the high-level officials of the Tang Dynasty turned a blind eye to the actions of the tax inspection team. The memorandum of impeachment of the tax inspection team could fill a room, but Li Xuan never read it, and basically stayed in the middle and did not send it!

It is worth noting that because the scumbags of the tax inspection team often receive bribes, not only will they not do things for you, but some black-hearted people will turn their faces on the spot and ask for more money on the charge of bribery, which is now Xingquan. The ordinary people on the other side of the government are now learning to be smart.

Few people would foolishly pay bribes to the tax inspection team. If you pay taxes honestly, the tax inspection team will naturally come to you for nothing, but if you evade tax, you still want to pay bribes. Let the people from the tax inspection team let you go, I'm sorry, they never take too much money, but after accepting a bribe, they will charge you a bribe in minutes. , and then ask for more money, no? People will copy your home in minutes!

Taking bribes, how can there be so much oil and water in raiding homes!

The practice of these scumbags from the tax inspection team that they take money without doing anything, and immediately turn around and raid their homes in order to make more money after receiving the money, is simply destroying the market for bribery and making many Datang officials miserable. , these tax officials who killed thousands of knives, the rules have been broken by you, how can I take bribes in the future?

The small Huaiyuan County welcomed local officials from the Tang Dynasty, and began local governance, recruitment, and taxation.

On the Rong County side, it will soon no longer be under military control, and will be handed over to the civilian officials. However, this time, among the main officials of Rong County, there is one more official who was demoted in the Ming Dynasty. That is the county chief of Rong County. When he was in the city, he also tried to escape, but after being caught, this person simply acted on the spot and expressed his willingness to swear allegiance to the Tang Dynasty.

In order to buy people's hearts, Ma Wei, the prefect of Liuzhou Prefecture, made a decisive decision, and after consulting directly with the officials of the Ministry of Personnel, appointed him as the county magistrate of Rong County.

Rong County's aftermath should naturally follow the example of Huaiyuan County!

The army attacked the next city, and then the civilians took over and started to establish rule. This has formed a set of procedures and rules in the Tang Dynasty, and there are not too many problems.

Before the army went south, the personnel department had already selected the county magistrates of Liuzhou counties in advance, and Li Xuan personally appointed Ma Wei, the prefect of Liuzhou Prefecture, which means that Hao Bainian had not yet captured Liuzhou Prefecture. However, the Tang Dynasty has already prepared officials above the county level for the entire Liuzhou Prefecture.

Of course, some low-level officials did not go all the way. Some of them were recruited directly from local scholars, some of them were chosen to be demoted from the Ming Dynasty, and some of them were chosen directly from retired soldiers and officers.

Although it is said that most scholars nowadays look down on the Tang Dynasty, and many people are afraid of death and do not dare to have a relationship with the Tang Dynasty, but there are always people who are not afraid of death and want to take advantage of the chaos to gain a fortune. Overall, surrender Although there were not many scholars of the Tang Dynasty and officials of the Ming Dynasty, there were still some.

In Liping Mansion and Xingquan Mansion, the situation is even better. It has been more than half a year since the Tang Dynasty established its rule in Xingquan Mansion, and the imperial army has not seen the counterattack coming back, and the scale of the Tang Dynasty is still growing. The bigger he was, and he defeated the imperial army several times, which made many people have strange thoughts.

Especially after the news that Tang Wang Shi defeated Zhu Zhihai's department and almost wiped out the 50,000-60,000 army in Guizhou Province was sent back to Xingquan Mansion~www.wuxiaspot.com~ There were many scholars in those days. Take the initiative to run to apply for an official of the Tang Dynasty.

This time, many of the officials who came to Guangxi with the army, many of them were scholars who had just been recruited to serve Datang!

The personnel department has already told Li Xuan that the current situation is quite optimistic. As the army continues to defeat the Ming army, more and more scholars have begun to devote their allegiance to the Tang Dynasty and devote themselves to the great cause of reviving the Tang Dynasty.

If it weren't for the fact that many scholars took refuge in a short period of time, the Tang Dynasty might not be able to arrange enough people to serve as officials in Guizhou and Guangxi!

After Huaiyuan and Rongxian were successively brought under Datang's rule, Hao Bainian also brought tens of thousands of troops to the city of Liuzhou!

Looking at Liuzhou Fucheng in front, Hao Bainian was not in a hurry to launch an attack, because he knew that there were many Ming troops in the city.

Moreover, the Battle of Liuzhou was directly related to the key to whether the Tang Dynasty could gain a foothold in central Guangxi, but it should not be sloppy.

He didn't want to capsize in the gutter just because he underestimated the enemy!
