Back in the inner courtyard, Cao Chong told Zhen Mi in the inner courtyard about related things, and then played with Zhen Mi, Guan Feng and Zuwan Zhang's family, and the daughter of the Wuwei Cao family who made him a concubine, and temporarily emptied his dizzy head.
Unfortunately, happy times are always short-lived.
Because Guo Xiao was already waiting outside the gate of the inner courtyard.
Cao Chong tidied up his clothes, immediately pulled his emotions back, and his face became serious again.
"You guys play first, there are some things for the husband, and I will come back to accompany you in the evening when I have time."
Of course, the four girls were a little reluctant on their faces, but they didn't keep Cao Chong.
If Cao Chong lingered among them all day long, they would look down on Cao Chong.
This is a woman, that is, she wants her other half to be a capable and statused man, but on the other hand, she wants her man to accompany her more, but she doesn't know the truth that you can't have both.
After saying goodbye to the beauties of the inner courtyard, Cao Chong walked outside the door of the inner courtyard, and sure enough, he saw Guo Xiao waiting for him.
"Coming here at this time, is there something troublesome in the third house?"
Guo Xiao is in charge of the affairs of the Third Hospital, and now he is looking for himself, naturally because of the affairs of the Third Hospital.
I didn't want Guo Xiao to shake his head and said, "There is nothing going on in the Third Hospital, everything is going well." ” The third courtyard is going well, what are you doing here in a hurry, and you don't allow Ben Hou to steal a floating life for half a day Cao Chong's mood suddenly became a little bad.
"Then what are you doing here?"
"Cao Shuo is here."
Cao Shuo Cao Chong was stunned for a moment, and some of the emotions in his heart quickly dissipated.
Cao Shuo chose to go to Guzang at this time, which is somewhat interesting.
"He's Alone" Guo Xiao shook his head and said, "Most of the families in Dunhuang County are here. ” It's kind of interesting.
"Then let them wait in the lobby of the outer mansion, Ben Hou will go in a moment."
Guo Xiao saluted Cao Chong again and said, "Junhou, the Dunhuang family has brought a lot of things here, probably to show weakness to Junhou. ” Cao Chong nodded, indicating that he knew, and was about to step out, Guo Xiao's eyes rolled, but he said again: "Ling Humei also wants to see the prince." ” Linghu is charming Cao Chong turned his head and glanced at Guo Xiao as if he had something to do, but let the latter lower his head.
Ling Humei wants to see herself, what are you Guo Xiao saying Of course, although Cao Chong had some doubts in his heart, he quickly put them down.
"See you later, let's settle the matter of Dunhuang first."
Cao Shuo came to Dunhuang at this time, and he also brought these gifts, which in itself illustrates a certain problem.
He was trying to show weakness.
If the Dunhuang Cao clan shows weakness, then Dunhuang County is naturally easy to control.
However, there are downsides.
The Dunhuang Cao family showed weakness, and the Dunhuang family showed weakness, so Cao Chong could not find a reason to deal with these families.
In other words, there will be remnants of the family in Dunhuang County, and after a few years, it may not be impossible to become a powerful family again.
But That was years later.
And Cao Chong will not give these families a few years later.
The foundation of the family is the system of the Han Dynasty, as long as Cao Chong draws on some systems in the Song and Ming dynasties, he will instantly arrange these families clearly.
The top priority is not to fight with the family, but to return to Yecheng as soon as possible.
The Dunhuang family saw the situation clearly, and what could they do if they let him linger for a while With the Luoyang Chamber of Commerce, no one in the entire Liangzhou can withstand the wind and waves, and so are these families.
If these families want to do something, then the dark guard will definitely teach these families to be people.
After Guo Xiao left for half an hour, Cao Chong walked from the inner courtyard to the outer lobby.
The reason why Guo Xiao is half a quarter of an hour slow is naturally to want to dry this Dunhuang family for a while, so as not to let these families know their thoughts.
If you let the Dunhuang family know that you also have the heart to take them in, the ability of these families to sit on the ground and raise prices is definitely not bad, and Cao Chong doesn't want to be earned by these families in vain.
On the contrary, Cao Chong still wants to exploit these families fiercely, and then set some harsh rules, so that the family will not be able to turn over the storm in a short time, at least ten years.
Negotiation is a technical job in the first place.
When he arrived at the outer compound, Cao Chong saw a group of people from the Dunhuang family.
Different from the previous momentum, these current families are much more honest, and after waiting for Cao Chong for half an hour, they don't dare to complain at all.
Cao Chong coughed twice, and then sat down on the main seat.
"You have come from afar, and you don't know what to say."
Cao Shuo saw that Cao Chong was elegant on the surface, but in his heart he knew that this Luoyang Hou was more barbaric than the robbers, and he didn't dare to show the slightest contempt in his heart.
"The prince is the pastor of Liangzhou, this Qianghu rebellion, if there is no prince, the four counties of Liangzhou are almost insecure, and I will come to see the prince, naturally it is not necessary."
Cao Chong nodded slightly, but Cao Shuo couldn't see what Cao Chong was thinking now.

"Well, I will also tell you about military exploits by the way, you have resisted Qianghu and made great achievements, and this point, Benhou naturally wants to reward and punish clearly."
Hearing Cao Chong's words, except for Cao Shuo, everyone else had smiles on their faces.
Originally, when they saw Cao Chong so strong, they thought that the so-called military exploits were something that could not be seen, so they didn't dare to mention it when they came this time, but they didn't expect that this Luoyang Marquis was a little interesting, and they didn't mention these military exploits.
Many people's feelings about Cao Chong have changed a lot better.
Unlike other people's innocence, Cao Shuo's brows were tightly furrowed, and he seemed to have a lot on his mind.
Cao Chong did not forget his military exploits, so he naturally won the hearts of the Dunhuang family, but with Cao Shuo's understanding of Cao Chong in these days, he knew that Cao Chong would not have such a step.
From the Qianghu Rebellion, this Luoyang Marquis looked at three steps in one step, and ate the family to death, how can this military merit be as the family wishes Cao Shuo felt that there must be fraud in this matter.
Of course, although he felt that this matter was a little bad, Cao Shuo didn't dare to say anything, so he had to follow everyone to salute Cao Chong.
"Okay, that's all for the polite words, can you tell Ben Hou about the purpose of coming here?"
Cao Chong asked like this, Cao Shuo couldn't say anything, he stepped forward, first bowed to Cao Chong respectfully, and then said: "It's not a secret, Dunhuang is tired, coupled with the policy of not collecting taxes for three years in Wuwei, so that there are fewer people in Dunhuang. ” Make your own decisions Cao Chong was stunned, but the expression on his face was not very good-looking.
"What does it mean to let Ben Hou make decisions for you?"
Cao Shuo was stunned for a moment, and immediately knew that what he said was a little vague, and hurriedly continued: "What we mean is that the prince sent officials to govern Dunhuang County, and if Dunhuang can be made without collecting taxes for three years, it will naturally be excellent." ” The calculations of these families are very loud Cao Chong sneered at the corner of his mouth, and the words were also spoken.
"Wuwei County has not collected taxes from the people for three years, that is because there is still some grain and grass in Dongcang, and Wuwei County can still operate, but Dunhuang County can have Dongcang to allow Dunhuang County to operate without taxes."
"This" When Cao Chong said this, Cao Shuo's speech suddenly became stumbling.
"This, you need the relief of the prince."
Ask me for relief Isn't that daydreaming?
Cao Chong also understood Cao Shuo's thoughts.
The tax system of this era can be said to be extremely strict.
The so-called taxation actually has many categories, which can be roughly divided into two categories, one is taxation and the other is taxation.
It is well understood that the tax is handed over to the zhèngfu, for the zhèngfu office operation, for the support of the officials and the army, and in the taxation, the tax is the big head.
And the endowment is for the emperor, and the emperor's internal money, that is, private money, is collected by endowment.
Of course, in this era, Fu was finally handed over to Cao Cao, not to Liu Xie, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty.
If Liu Xiezhen can still receive the endowment, he will naturally not be as embarrassed as he is now.
Of course, without Cao Cao, not many people in the land of Kyushu would pay taxes.
The state pastors and county guards of all states and counties are all soil emperors, where will they hand over their private money to you for nothing Cao Chong gave Wuwei County three years of tax exemption, mainly because Wuwei at this time gathered the financial resources and grain of the four counties of Liangzhou, so no matter how Wuwei County squandered it for three years, it was still possible to stick to it, and there would even be a surplus, which is why Cao Chong gave Wuwei tax exemption.
And if the Dunhuang family wants to be exempt from taxes, the reason is naturally simpler.
Originally, they didn't have to pay taxes, but now that Cao Chong is here, they naturally have to pay taxes, and the original family has been seriously damaged, and it will naturally be even more difficult to pay taxes again.
However, your Dunhuang family is even more difficult, what does it have to do with me Cao Chong "It's not a secret, everyone, it is difficult for Benhou to maintain Wuwei for three years without taxes, how can Dunhuang be exempt from taxes" Seeing Cao Chong's appearance, although the Dunhuang family's face was a little disappointed, his face did not change much.
The reason for this is that the Dunhuang family never thought that Cao Chong would agree to this.
Where there is no hope, there is naturally no disappointment.
Cao Shuo glanced at Cao Chong, and after thinking for a moment, the words came out.
"Since the prince is unwilling, then we are naturally not reluctant, but Dunhuang County is in ruins at this time, let alone to pay taxes, the people can't even survive, since the prince is benevolent, even if he doesn't want to exempt Dunhuang from paying taxes for three years, then it is always okay to be exempt from taxes for one year."
It is natural to be exempted from paying taxes for one year, but for Cao Chong, it is the one who suffers.
Therefore, Cao Chong shook his head and said, "One year is too long, I can exempt Dunhuang County from paying taxes for half a year." ” Hearing Cao Chong's words, although Cao Shuo's face showed a bitter color, but his heart was happy, originally he didn't think about tax exemption, let alone half a year, even if it was a month, Cao Shuo didn't think about it.
It seems that this Luoyang Hou is in a good mood now.
Cao Shuo hadn't finished being happy, but Cao Chong's next sentence made the smile on his face gradually converge, and even became a little dark.
"It's okay to be exempt from taxes for half a year, but Benhou has to re-investigate the population of Dunhuang County."
Re-survey of the population of Dunhuang County Not only Cao Shuo, but everyone present had a dark face.
You must know that the existence of the family is the income of those slave tenant farmers, that is, the legendary black households.
These black households do not have to pay taxes, and all their income goes into the pockets of the family.
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the tax revenue was not as good as a year, in addition to the war and the withering population, more of it was hidden by the prefects and families in various places.
During the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were tens of millions of people, but in the Western Jin Dynasty, there were only a few million.
Tens of millions have turned into millions, although there is a natural disaster, but it is very related to the fact that some people have become black households without household registration.
The population on the surface of Liangzhou, the population registered on the household registration, is absolutely different from the population of Liangzhou in fact.
This is illustrated by the fact that each county can pull out an army of 50,000 men.

If the black households are investigated, the population on the bright side of Liangzhou will increase greatly, and correspondingly, the tax revenue will naturally increase.
However, these families will not be willing to give up their interests to Cao Chong in vain.
The scene became a little dull for a while.
For such a dull atmosphere, Cao Chong didn't care, but fiddled with the wine glass in front of the table, looking very interested.
At this time, it was the Dunhuang family who came to ask for themselves, not to ask for these families themselves, and the priorities still had to be clearly distinguished.
Such a dull atmosphere did not last long, Cao Shuo and these family representatives looked at each other, and immediately stood up to speak.
"It is natural for the prince to investigate the population of Dunhuang County, but the family has been hit hard, and the prince must give some compensation."
It is rare for Cao Shuo to say such concise and clear words, Cao Chong nodded, and said: "Naturally, I will exempt Dunhuang County from paying taxes for half a year, and I will allow you to send your daughters over and marry your family, in addition, if you are in trouble, Benhou will help immediately, in this case, you can still be satisfied."
Cao Shuo shook his head.
"Qiyu Junhou, Cao Shuo feels that it is still a little insufficient."
Not to mention that it is not enough, Cao Shuo squirted wildly in his heart, these benefits of yours are directly an attic in the air, who knows how true or false the words in your mouth are.
"The prince can investigate the population of Dunhuang County, but he also has to give the family some privileges, such as in terms of taxation, such as in terms of entering the office."
This Cao Shuo is really good to think about.
Cao Chong thought for a moment and said: "I can agree to the entry of the family, but I will not give you any privileges, as for whether you agree or not is your business, the current Dunhuang County is like a wasteland, and you will always have a time to ask for this Hou in the future." ” Cao Shuo has already made his words clear enough.
But Cao Chong said it more clearly. was said by Cao Chong, and the face of the Dunhuang family seemed to be choked after eating too much.
It's hard to see the extreme.
At this moment, it was the first time that the families encountered such a situation, and they were deeply impressed by the first encounter.
What can they do revolt Don't be funny, a deserted Dunhuang, the family has no people, how to maintain their luxurious life But if you don't resist, do you want to let the Marquis of Luoyang slaughter The family thought about it for a while, and it seemed that there was really no second way to go except for letting the Marquis of Luoyang slaughter:
