Chapter 476: Taxes that go up and down


After lunch, Yin lay on the soft couch to rest with Qing Yan in his arms.

He opened his eyes and looked at the little man in his arms, feeling so beautiful. look "Master, the county magistrate is here," Su Peisheng said at the door.

Qing Yan opened her eyes and saw Yin frowning, her eyes looking coldly outside.

She was about to get up and accompany him to meet someone.

"Sisi, I'll go with you."

The county magistrate should have brought the county magistrate's wife.

Originally, Yin and Qing Yan planned to take a break, at least for two or three days.

"Su Peisheng, is the county magistrate's wife here?"

Yin asked.

"Master, the county magistrate's wife is coming," Su Peisheng said quickly.

Qing Yan blinked her eyes.

It was the first time she met a courtier who came to see him without his wife.

"My dear, sleep a little longer."

Yin got up, sat on the edge of the soft couch, patted the silk quilt on her body, and asked her to rest for a while.

She shook her head, stood up and lay on top of him.

"Sisi, let's go together."

He sighed and agreed.

After the two freshened up, they went to the main hall together.

The county magistrate looked at the people walking slowly and secretly regretted in his heart.

He should have let his wife accompany him.

The fourth master loved Si Fujin the most.

The courtiers had known it early.

I didn't want to resort to wife diplomacy, so I brought my wife here, hoping to gain more impression points.

"I would like to express my regards to Fourth Master and my regards to Si Fujin."

The county magistrate was very nervous.

On the first day when the masters came, every house was closed before the people had dinner.

He knew that this situation was obviously to pamper him.

Yin looked at the other party indifferently without saying a word.

The magistrate knelt on the cold tiles.

The master and others who followed him did not dare to show their anger.

They kept looking at Qing Yan, hoping that she could intercede for them.

"Master, the account books are here."

Su Peisheng respectfully handed over the county government's account books.

Yin quickly looked through it, and the rows of numbers on it gave him a headache.

Recently, the Account Department also used Qingyan's account book model, which is simple and clear.

Jiangnan obviously did not follow Kangxi's wishes.

The county magistrate regretted why he listened to the instigation of the governors of Guangdong and Guangxi and did not keep accounts according to Kangxi's method.

"My dear, please take a look."

Qing Yan opened the account book and looked at the Chinese characters one by one.

She got a headache.

These ledgers are the same as the previous ledgers, looking very confusing.

Yin read it carefully, and the county magistrate's heart became colder and colder.

Why did Kangxi send this uncle here.

Many powerful officials in the household department were pulled down by Fourth Master, which made him feel a sense of fear in his heart, fearing that his own faults would also be singled out.

"Yin Deben, you remember this account book?"

Yin threw the account book in his hand on the ground.

It was obviously an exaggerated accounting, without even the most basic vouchers.

"Fourth Master, after I took over, these account books have always been remembered by the master."

The county magistrate was from Zhenglan Banner.

He is considered to be the more capable among the Eight Banners.

He was able to achieve such an official position by relying on his own ability without using any of his own resources. power.

Yin Deben understood that the loopholes in the account books were too big and something must have gone wrong.

Officials in Jiangnan were making money from the account books, and not much money was really used on the people.

"Huang Ama allocated funds to clean up the environment in the towns in the south of the Yangtze River.

It was an eye-opener for me to come here."

Yin sneered coldly.

The county magistrate had people keeping an eye on the two of them, and Yin would definitely not let it go.

The magistrate's back was wet with cold sweat.

This master was really cruel and would never show any dignity to others.

"Yes, this slave is guilty."

The county magistrate quickly pleaded guilty.

He was from the Eight Banners and did not have any backers.

Li Xu was born in Baoyi Banner, but he had Cao Yin as his backer.

"Looking at the commercial streets in the county, the cleaning is good, but the rest of the streets are gone."

Yin looked at her, not missing any of his expressions.

The county magistrate trembled, this Li Xu clearly said that the masters only go to the commercial streets of the county.

Damn it "Elu, I'll leave it to you."

Yin didn't care about unnecessary things.

Huang Ama sent him here just because he didn't want him to let go.

After Elu saluted respectfully, he nodded quickly.

"Fourth Master, it's not what I mean, it's what Lord Li Xu means.

He said, Long live the Lord just looked at the commercial street in Xincheng, and the remaining silver coins were divided among them.

This time when we clean up the commercial street, there are still slaves in it.

Where do you get the silver from?"

The county magistrate quickly shouted that he was wronged.

Qing Yan pursed his lips and looked at the traces of Yuelai Inn and Linglong Pavilion.

Both of them were obviously heavily taxed, but the tax set by the government was much lower than what was recorded.

"Su Lan, ask the shopkeepers of Yuelai Inn and Linglong Pavilion to come over."

Qing Yan was annoyed.

Her stores were colluding with government and businessmen.

Her little face is getting greener and greener.

These people are obviously making false accounts.

At the beginning of the period, she was surprised that the taxes here in Jiangnan were much higher than those in the capital.

Now, she more or less understands the collusion between government and businessmen.

"Yes" Su Lan asked Xiao Sula to go out and find someone quickly.

The county magistrate's heart suddenly rose, and he wished he could give himself a slap in the face.

Li Xu did not say that Yuelai Inn and Linglong Pavilion belonged to this master.

If he had known, he would never bribe the accountant in their shop.

"My dear, take a look at this one too."

Yin clicked on the account books of the two stores.

There are two kinds of these four account books.

One is for officials who come to the court, and the other is their internal private accounts.

Su Peisheng took people over and searched all the places.

Soon, all the private accounts were found.

Qing Yan looked at the first few pages and placed the cup heavily on the table beside him, feeling heartbroken.

More than a quarter of the profits from the two shops here will go into the pockets of the officials.

If these can do something good for the people, she really will forget it.

"Che" Yin spit out one word. "" A reply came from the air.

The county magistrate trembled, and the Long Live Lord sent the dragon guards around him to several elder brothers.

When they needed manpower, the dragon guards' talents would emerge.

"I really don't know this," the county magistrate quickly begged for mercy.

Qing Yan looked at the account books of Yuelai Inn and Linglong Pavilion seriously with a small face.

She had to say that the records in these account books really opened her eyes.

There are not many people in the shop who can confuse the shopkeeper and be bribed by the government.

"My dear, let's put this matter aside for a while and interrogate it later.

It would be great if these silver coins come out to improve the environment for the people here."

Yin is not going to ask for these silver coins.

Qing Yan nodded and agreed with Yin's intention.

Kangxi kept staring at Yuelai Inn.

Both Ulanara and her had enough silver.

So, if these extra profits are donated directly, it can be regarded as a good deed for the family.

The county magistrate couldn't help but be secretly surprised when he saw the behavior of the people here.

The amount they got every year was not small, and it lasted for several years.

It really added up to a big windfall
