The head of Zhujia Village was set up with a table. The tax collector sat behind the table, and the villagers leaned forward with laughter. When the tax collector saw Huo Chong also among the crowd, he frowned.

Huo Chong also knew that he had really met the tax collector this time, and he was very reluctant. But when things came to this point, he could only walk over and salute the tax collector, "This official, I want to pay taxes to some people here."

The tax collector had already opened the famous book. After hearing what Huo Chong said, his eyebrows stood up, closed the famous book with a snap, and glared at Huo Chong and shouted: "What are you going to do?"

Huo Chong laughed and said, "The people in the village have given me money to get a fortune, and they ask me for taxes. I think it's better to pay taxes to the government all at once. I don't have to be bothered by them anymore. If everyone hadn't forced me to do so, I wouldn't want to sway in front of the government."

The tax collector glanced sharply on Huo Chong several times, and suddenly sneered: "Haha! I just heard that you are just taking money from others, and I have never heard of paying back money to others! OK, okay, I don't care anymore, it depends on you paying back the money!"

After saying that, the tax collector opened the account book again and began to name the name book. Huo Chong also took out a piece of paper, which also had many names written on it. The tax collector read one. If there was a record on the paper, Huo Chong would mark it with a charcoal pen. When the tax collector read out the tax that the person was to pay, Huo Chong quickly recorded it.

After reading the tax collector finished speaking, he stopped talking and stared at Huo Chong. This gaze made Huo Chong feel like he was thorning on his back. But at this time there was nothing to worry about.

Huo Chong hurried to the table in the distance and asked the villagers who had helped grow money to come over and calculate based on the recorded data.

Liujia Village, Zhujia Village, and Lijia Village. There are more than 400 people in three villages. Uncle Liu is very capable of Tianli Sect, and more than 60% of the people have invested money for planting fortunes here. The standard for planting fortunes is 100 yuan, and most ordinary villagers have invested 100 yuan, and a few have invested 200 yuan.

According to the information Huo Chong found out, Shandong is a trial operation area for "spending calves to a mu". The so-called tax is the capita tax. In the past, every tax was required to pay bank. After the tax system of spreading calves to a mu, the tax as the capita tax was cancelled. All of this tax money was distributed into the land tax.

The farmers with land sighed when they saw the increase in land tax this year. But sighing was useless. The tax collector followed the officers. Seeing that they were holding ruthless sticks of water and fire, carrying iron chains that locked people around their waists, they didn't dare not pay.

These land-affiliated farmers came to Huo Chong, and based on the content recorded in Huo Chong's account book, the tax money to be paid this time was reduced to the money invested in Uncle Liu's side, and gave the remaining money to Huo Chong. After Huo Chong collected the money, he calculated the total amount of silver these people had to give. Then he took the list and the silver to the tax collector.

The tax collector looked at Huo Chong's trouble disdainfully. When Huo Chong arrived in front of him, he sneered: "Have you figured it out?"

"The official said I'll calculate it, and I'll calculate it." Huo Chong said with a smile.

After hearing this, the tax collector began to reconcile accounts with Huo Chong. After counting it one by one, the arrogance on the tax collector's face gradually disappeared. When he made a calculation, he finally calculated a total number. It was a pair with Huo Chong's numbers, and the tax collector's face was not good.

"Give me that paper." The tax collector said with a calm face.

Huo Chong delivered his accounting paper with both hands. The tax collector took it over and looked at it for a while, and said with a stern face: "This word is like a dog crawling!"

When Huo Chong was said this, he was angry and smiled bitterly. He must not be more complicated, this is certain. No matter how angry he is, he will have to bear it. Moreover, the tax collector said nothing wrong with Huo Chong's words. Compared with the brush calligraphy in the famous book, Huo Chong's charcoal brush calligraphy is like a dog.

Perhaps because Huo Chong used a lot of Arabic numerals, the tax collector looked at it for a while with doubt before slapping the paper on the table, "Give it money."

Huo Chong quickly gave the prepared silver. After distinguishing the color and weighing the weight, the tax collector began to collect taxes to the villagers who were not within the scope of Huo Chong's payment.

The big guy breathed a sigh of relief. Huo Chong took back the bill. When he arrived at a place where the tax collector could not see, the landless people were already waiting here.

After the policy of levying the resident into the acres was implemented, tenants without land did not have to pay tax on taxes and land taxes. The Qing Dynasty did not charge corvee labor, which was equivalent to not paying taxes at all.

After collecting so many copper coins from land-free farmers, Huo Chong happened to have enough money to repay all the landless farmers' blessing money. But after seeing so many copper coins, the landless farmers had a smile on their faces.

When a bunch of copper coins were sent to them, the smiles of the people were even brighter. However, the glory did not last long. The rich people in Zhujia Village were already blocking here and began to ask these landless tenants to pay back the money quickly. The smiles dissipated, and the sorrow and helplessness returned to these people's faces again.

When I was in Lijia Village, Huo Chong had seen this scene once. When I first saw it, Huo Chong was so happy. Especially the guy who shouted "I want to beat Huo Chong" was blocked by the rich people in Lijia Village and actually pushed away the debtor and fled in panic. Huo Chong felt very happy and almost laughed out loud.

But the resentment dissipated, and Huo Chong felt that this kind of fortune money was probably the only living money that the villagers could still get. After using this money to deal with this year's taxes and pay back some debts, he didn't know what they could do next.

At this time, all the money for growing fortune in Zhujia Village was paid back, so Huo Chong seized the time to pack up his things. It was not too late yet, and Huo Chong felt that if the tax collector left quickly, he could still arrive in Liujia Village.

After paying back the money for the common villagers in Liujia Village, Huo Chong broke free from the debt trap. Of course, there was still a gap in the money. After Huo Chong paid back the money that Uncle Liu borrowed by the ground, he wanted to pay off the first round of money first. This would be unnecessary to be collected by the wealthy households during the end of the year. Unexpectedly, he was run away this time, so he could only pay off all the money from Lijia Village and Zhujia Village first.

After this, Huo Chong's money was only enough to pay back the ordinary villagers in Liujia Village. Those rich families had to owe them first.

Just as I was considering how to deal with the debt collection of goods like Liu Laowu, someone was crying in front of me, "Isn't it just owed 70 cents, wait for me for a few months!"

Faced with the begging of the farmers who owed debt, the rich man who collected the debt cursed: "What are you waiting for? Look, Huo Chong, a liar, knows that he is not as good as him?"

This made people laugh around him. Huo Chong raised his head and saw that he was a little familiar with him. Perhaps it might be Mr. Zhu’s subordinate. Judging from his figure, he must have been beaten by Huo Chong in the previous wine tasting conflict.

The laughter of those onlookers made Huo Chong feel that evil started from his heart and angry with courage. If possible, Huo Chong wanted to beat this guy up again. But Huo Chong carried the packed things and took his third junior brother to get up and leave.

Behind him, the guy continued to scold: "In the past, the liar Huo Chong cheated you of your money, and you asked him for interest! If you can get the interest, you can pay it back!"

Hearing this vicious instigation, Tie Niu turned around and scolded: "What did you say!"

Huo Chong grabbed Tie Niu and pulled him away. Tie Niu refused to leave, but he actually wanted to break free. Huo Chong was so angry that he scolded: "Tie Niu! They just want us to get angry. We are not angry. We have already paid back all the money. Do you still want to stay here and wait for someone to treat you to a meal!"

After hearing what Huo Chong said, a burst of laughter came from the crowd. Tieniu was not as strong as Huo Chong, and he was pulled and staggered with Huo Chong out of Niujia Village. After leaving the entrance of the village, Huo Chong let go. Tieniu pointed to the direction of Niujia Village and jumped and cursed, "What's the matter! xxoo...xoxo..."

The incompetent anger made Huo Chong feel both angry and funny. However, with Tien Niu scolding, Huo Chong also felt that he was in a much better mood. Huo Chong remembered that when the platform was first built, he encountered extremely bad investors. At that time, Huo Chong also had to call and answer the phone. For this reason, the platform also specially built a completely sound-proof and sound-absorbing "swearing room", which allowed employees who were angry with customers to come inside and curse and vent their anger. Huo Chong himself actually

Hearing Tie Niu's scolding, Huo Chong felt better. Thinking back to the embarrassment of those poor people being recovered by rich people, Huo Chong no longer had sympathy in his heart.

These people have set their minds on the money for money to grow fortunes, which means they really have no spare money. So many descriptions of the cruelty of the landlords in the Qing Dynasty are not fake. Although Huo Chong has never seen it with his own eyes, Huo Chong expects that this is true. At the latest by next year, these guys will know that life is getting worse and worse, which is their destiny!

He felt cruel in his heart! Huo Chong felt that thinking about the miserable future of these people did have a great effect. Tie Niu was also tired of scolding at this time, so Huo Chong called Tie Niu to go home quickly.

Sure enough, as the sun sets westward, with the sound of the gong, the tax collector arrives at Liujia Village.

I ran to three villages in one day, and the tax collector seemed to be very tired. He brought people to Lijia Village last night and started collecting taxes at dawn today. Perhaps with Huo Chong's cooperation, the tax collection process was very smooth. In addition, the distance between the three villages was not far, so the tax collector ran so far like a god's warranty.

When I arrived at Liujia Village, I saw Huo Chong coming again. The tax collector had no emotional reaction at all. He shouted the name and tax money as he read the script.

Huo Chong worked quickly and finally settled all the money for the poor to grow wealth before the evening.

After getting through these things, Huo Chong hurried home and closed the door tightly. At this time, the tax collector brought a lot of money, and Huo Chong dared not provoke these people again. If they proposed to stay at Huo Chong's house, they suddenly said that the money was lost the next day. No matter how the county government judged it, Huo Chong's fate would inevitably be lost.

Those tax collectors live wherever they like, as long as they don’t come to Huo Chong’s house to live.

That night, Huo Chong went to bed early but couldn't sleep.

Things during the day kept replaying in my mind, and Huo Chong was thinking about what to do in the future.

Xu Youlin probably cooperated for a while, but Huo Chong did not want to rely on this guy. Not to mention Xu Youlin's slender eyes and hooked nose, he looked like he was not a good person.
