Du Wenzhong and Du Shisanlang's recent mood is not bad. He is Du Wenyu's legitimate brother and is not proud of the Du family in Kaifeng. Because he likes to mingle with the strong men in the Imperial Boxing Gym, he has been delayed in calligraphy and painting, and he cannot compare with his own sister Du Wenyu at all. However, he is good at practicing his body and riding horses and shooting archery, but he is far from reaching the level of high-level martial arts and not very good at literary talent. He will definitely not be able to pass the imperial examination for a martial arts Jinshi, which is a bit like not being able to do so.

He was even more dissatisfied with his sister Du Wenyu being given as a gift to Wu Haogu, who was born in Panlou Street. He even quarreled with his grandfather Du Yongde for this, and his status in the Du family became even lower.

However, after two years of hardship, Wu Haogu, the "miss" of his sister Du Wenyu, was extremely developed. His sister also became famous and found his brother and asked him to go to Jiehe Shangshi to help manage the calligraphy and painting business. However, Du Wenzhong was rough and did not have any good intentions in the business of calligraphy and painting business. After working for a year, he was no longer interested. So Du Wenyu arranged for him a fat person to be a tax official in Jiehe Shangshi Finance! No matter how fat he was, the girl really took care of him.

The tax officials lack mainly fat in two aspects: one is that their salary is high, with a monthly salary of up to 30 pieces of silk, and an annual income of 360. In addition, there are free and spacious housing, and the monthly payment of 20 pieces of silk per month is office expenses, car and horse fees, etc. If you can't spend it, you can put it in your own pocket. If you don't have enough money, you won't give it to me.

Second, there is enough oil and water! There are many opportunities to accept bribes! Because the system of Jiehe Commercial City is relatively strict and the supervision of the Senate is also effective, there are many clean yamen. However, because of the "conference tax" system, taxation is one of the few fats. There are four activity officials in the taxation, each activity official is responsible for the "tax negotiation" of 22 guilds.

This power is so great! Now the main income of Jiehe Commercial City is tax, local tax and ship tax, among which tax is the big one. It collected no less than 200,000 in the second year of Jianzhong Jingguo! I am afraid that I will receive 300,000 this year. In other words, the tax that each official has passed is between 50,000 and 80,000. Although Zhang Xizai, who is in charge of the Finance Department, will finalize an indicator, the power of the official is still very large. He can get a few thousand pieces of silk after stretching out his hand.

As for treating food, drink, and escorts, it is not a big deal for the tax officials. This job is really a waste! The only problem is that it is easy to capsize... The job in the public business of Jiehe Commercial City is not a bad idea! As long as you catch the grandsons of the Senate, you will definitely lose your job and get it out and you have to redeem it with money! And it is impossible to buy the position back after spending money, and you will never hire it!

So it's still a bit risky to be greedy for this money...

Du Wenzhong actually has no shortage of thousands of pieces of silk per year. His girl is Du Wenyu, the true master of Wu Haogu’s paintings! Now Wu Haogu has no time to draw, so he gave Du Wenyu the printing he used in paintings and asked Du Wenyu to imitate his handwriting. She sold several masterpieces in the name of Wu Haogu a year, but she earned tens of thousands of dollars.

In addition, Wu Haogu also gave Du Wenyu several pieces of land in Jiehe Shang City, and asked her to invest in land and participate in several brothels and restaurants. Now she has 20,000 to 30,000 yuan in dividends every year.

Du Wenyu was also very generous to her only legitimate brother, and she didn't feel sorry for her at all.

But Du Wenzhong is a very freshman, and it’s not a good idea to rely on girls to raise him! So Du Wenzhong still wants to be self-reliant. And when he sees the beloved yellow and white things and silk coming up, who can recommend it?

Wu Haogu made money differently back then? And not only did he make money but also women, wouldn’t he be the best girl belong to him?

Besides, the surname Wu is a nepotist in Jiehe Shangshi! How many people with surname Wu, Ximen, Murong, Pan, and Mi used them. The Su brothers, Lin father and son, Huang brothers, Zhang Xizai and Hua Manshan who followed him in his early years, and the relatives and disciples of Zhao Zhong, are they all their own people? What are you afraid of if you are the Du family?

Relying on the "someone in the court", Du Wenzhong had no worries. He had blackmailed all the 22 guilds under his jurisdiction. Even Yan Po'er's slutty lady was in the brothel tiles shop at the head of the business!

Others are afraid of Yan Po'er, but he is not afraid! He knows that Wu Haogu and Yan Po'er are just having sex. If Bai Feifei comes, he is still a little scared. Yan Po'er is a man of old beauties. Yan Po'er is so "forced" by him that he really gives him three thousand pieces of silk.

In addition to the brothel tiles shop, there are three other major guilds under his jurisdiction, namely the winemaking shop, the shipbuilding shop and the rice and grain shop. The winemaking shop is the dominant immortals in the wine industry. This is a deal held by Wu Haogu and Pan Lou. Du Wenzhong cannot mess with it. The rice and grain guild was hosted by Su Anli, a veteran of the market, and there is nothing to say. He is not only Wu Haogu's confidant, but also the veteran of the Senate. How can he blackmail? So the shipbuilding shop became Du Wenzhong's key blackmail target.

By the way, at the beginning of the shipbuilding in Jiehe Commercial City, there was only one of the Jiehe Boatyards under Jiehe Shipbuilding School, which was not a big industry. However, because the wood in Jiehe Commercial City was very cheap and the quantity was sufficient, it attracted many merchants who built Inland River Basket and became bigger in less than two years. The Jiehe Boatyard, which was controlled by Wu Haogu, did not control the shipbuilding guild because it had no business and no profit.

This shipbuilding guild doesn't seem to have any backstage, so Du Wenzhong is not polite. The lion opens his mouth and asks for a bribe of 8,000 pieces of silk! If he doesn't give it, then the tax on the three years of Jianzhong Jingguo will be doubled at least 30,000 pieces of silk!

However, those shipbuilders were obviously not as comfortable as Yan Po'er. They dragged on for a long time for eight thousand pieces of silk, but they refused to take it out. Du Wenzhong was a little impatient when he waited.

Yesterday he asked his deputy to make a harsh statement that if the pickled goods from the Shipbuilding Guild did not take out the silk, he would report the Shipbuilding Guild's crime of tax resistance.

Jiehe Commercial City is not without compulsory means! According to the bill passed by the Senate, the municipal government's ownership of the municipal government imposes penalties on the tax object for expulsion, confiscation and auction of property if the entire guild resists tax, the penalty will be imposed. If it is a single merchant's tax resistance, the bank will report it, and the municipal government will verify it and punish it.

Although the person being punished can still appeal to the Senate, the Senate does not need to spend money to clear it?

As for reporting or something, Du Wenzhong was not worried at all. In Jiehe Market, how many veterans would not give their sister face?

So when Lin Chong appeared in front of Du Wenzhong with two police inspectors and told him to be detained and investigated, Du Shisanlang could not believe his ears.

"Lin, coach Lin, are you right? I'm Du Wenyu's brother!"

Lin Chong looked at Du Shisanlang in front of him and was a little amused. How could Du Wenyu's brother be useful? If you are Pan Qiaolian's brother, then Wu Haogu would have to protect him.

"Brother Thirteenth, don't panic, go with me, you won't make things difficult for you." Lin Chong said kindly, "Even if it is done, at most it will be fined for the Ge... Madam Du will definitely pay you."

"Wu Dalang, does the officials of Wu Da know about this?" Du Wenzhong still didn't give up.

"I'm here to get yours with the order of the head of state." Lin Chong said warmly.

"He, he actually..." Du Wenzhong was so angry.

How could Wu Haogu not recognize his relatives! He is so unrighteous... No, he looks down on others too much! Ximen Anguo and Murong Mu also made more money than him, so he has already covered him up? Aren’t they the relatives of Ximen Qing? They are also concubines, and their sister is not as good as Ximen Qing?

Du Wenzhong, who became more and more angry, was unhappy with Lin Chong at this time. However, Lin Chong could not beat him, and the Lin man also brought two helpers, which seemed to be bothered.

"Teacher Lin," Du Wenzhong had been living in Kaifeng Prefecture's market. His mind was just active. He immediately said to Lin Chong, "I have to deal with it. If you are worried, ask someone to follow me."

The place where Lin Chong led people to "accusate" Du Wenzhong was the Jiehe Shang Municipal Finance Office, which is a three-story brick building. The official room of Du Wenzhong's office is on the second floor, and the stables are downstairs.

Lin Chong looked into the official room and saw a small room with tables, chairs, bookshelf, and some private miscellaneous items.

"No need," Lin Chong smiled, "We'll watch at the door."

"Okay..." Du Wenzhong responded, turned around and pretended to walk to the desk placed by the window. When he arrived at the desk, he pulled out the chair. Instead of sitting down, he suddenly jumped onto the chair, then went up to the table, and then broke through the window and jumped out!

Is this... committed suicide by jumping off a building?

Lin Chong was a little stupid when he saw this scene! Isn’t it just a few thousand pieces of silk? As for the purpose of committing suicide?

When he was stunned, a sucking sound of horses came.

"Master Lin, there is a stable below. The one named Du is about to run away!" A subordinate of Lin Chong shouted at this time.

"Damn it!"

Lin Chong cursed and ran to the window to see that Du Wenzhong was indeed riding on his horse and was about to run out.

"Grand official, bow and arrow!"

Following Lin Chong, a police inspector handed over a bamboo and wood longbow! Lin Chong's arrow shot very well, and he was sure to shoot Du Wenzhong with one arrow... But that was Du Wenyu's brother!

After a little hesitation, Du Wenzhong had already galloped out of the yard of the Finance Institute.

"Chasing!"
Chapter completed!
