Chapter 166: Taxation

Chapter 166 Taxation Zhuo Yi's words are very clear.

Uncle Du Guo fought for Chu Linguang to get the opportunity to enter the training ground to practice, and he needed Chu Linguang to get the top ten results in the provincial examination in return.

If you don't have such confidence and ability, you shouldn't go to the trial field, but choose to go to the academy to practice.

But Chu Linguang didn't care much about the importance of the training opportunity in the trial field. At this moment, he just wanted to know whether getting the top ten in the provincial examination would help Guo Wei become a grandmaster and let Guo Wei go to Langgu Pass to redeem people, thus giving back to Guo Wei. favor.

if it is possible.

Chu Linguang was willing to owe Uncle Du Guo a favor, go to the training ground to practice, and take the provincial martial arts test nine months later. Even if he didn't get into the top ten, he would have to pay some price for it. Chu Linguang was also willing to fight for Guo Wei.

Guo Wei couldn't make a decision for a while.

He taught Chu Linguang with his own hands, and he knew his character well. He looked at Zhuo Yi and said: "Master Zhuo, if Lin Guang's training results in the trial field are not satisfactory to Lord Guojiu, Lord Guojiu will put him to death." How about it?"

"Master Guo is joking. Master Du is eager for talents. Chu Linguang has entered the trial field. No matter what his results are, he will be Master Du's disciple from now on. How can Master Du make things difficult for him."

Zhuo Yi smiled.

Guo Wei fell silent again. Zhuo Yi's words had already shown that as long as Chu Linguang entered the trial field, Chu Linguang would become a member of the Du family in the future. Regardless of whether he could get the top ten, he would have to serve the Du family in the future.

If you can get it, the conditions will be favorable in the future, and you will be given more training resources, allowing Chu Linguang to rise rapidly in the officialdom.

If you can't get it, you have to act as a cow and horse, charge into battle for the Du family, and solve problems.

There is no free lunch in the world.

Even when Guo Wei taught Chu Linguang, he hoped that Chu Linguang would one day help him become a master after he became famous.

But he is different from Du Guojiu. If Chu Linguang can complete it, it is destiny, and if he cannot complete it, it is fate. Guo Wei will not criticize him harshly.

But Uncle Du Guo was different.

If Chu Linguang entered the trial field and the result was not satisfactory to Uncle Du Guo, Chu Linguang would have to pay a lot of price, but Guo Wei couldn't bear to let Chu Linguang take this risk.

It's just a training opportunity in the trial field...

"Master, if I go to the academy to practice and take the provincial martial arts examination nine months later, do you think I can get among the top ten in the provincial examination?"

Chu Linguang asked.

"The Taoist examination and the provincial examination are a watershed, especially among the top ten in various places. I don't know how many people are hiding in hiding. Even your senior brother Wang Chao failed to pass the exam several times in a row."

Guo Wei sighed.

Chu Linguang knew what Guo Wei meant, so he asked again: "What if I go to the trial ground?"

"With your current strength, there is no doubt that you will be on the list, but top ten... is difficult!"

Guo Wei thought for a moment and said seriously.

Chu Linguang was silent. He had blood all over his body, a blood dragon elephant, eight main vein dragon elephants, three levels of Dharma, and understood the superposition of double potential energy. Even if he went to the training ground to practice for three months, he wanted to get the top ten in the provincial examination nine months later. A, it’s very difficult in Guo Wei’s eyes.

Chu Linguang thought of Yan Zhen.

Yan Zhen, who was so talented, did not take the rural martial arts examination at Qiling Governor's Mansion a year after winning the first place in Jincheng, but waited until this session.

It is rumored that he was dormant for one term because he wanted to get Jieyuan in this rural examination.

Now listening to Guo Wei's evaluation of the rural examination martial arts examination, Yan Zhen may have to prepare for a few more years if he wants to obtain the provincial examination Jieyuan.

"Master, let your disciple go to the trial field!"

Wanting to understand the degree of difficulty, Chu Linguang took a deep breath and said, no matter how difficult it was, he had to give it a try. He wanted to repay Guo Wei's kindness, but he also didn't want to miss this rare opportunity.

Since experiencing the Samba battle, Chu Linguang has deeply understood that not everyone is like Guo Wei and Er Gu, who are full of expectations for him and will never leave him.

If you want to gain a foothold in this world, earn more favor points, continuously improve your strength, and obtain dazzling results in martial arts exams, this is a relatively reliable method.

Although the person who topped the list in Nancheng and the one who won the Taoist examination were both martial scholars, their treatment was very different. He could go to the academy to practice for a month, and made friends with people like Feng Junyi, Liu Wan, and even Li Dayao, as well as aristocratic families such as Emperor Yue Xuan and Chen Jin. The disciples mingled together.

But Black Tiger, who also made the list, can only stay in Baiyang County and continue to practice in the martial arts hall.

With dazzling results, you can not only gain advanced breathing skills in a legitimate way, but also make more meaningful brothers and friends.

Chu Linguang knew that his stage should not be just in Baiyang County. Ever since he took the martial arts exam, he thought that one day he could compete with the world's heroes and become famous in a real sense.

If you are in a high position and have a lot of responses, you can gain more favor points.

Liujiagou is an example.

Just a Samba, before he even fights, can make him experience betrayal and separation. If he meets a more powerful person in the future, if he does not have stronger strength and more network resources, I am afraid that the other person will let him down with just one look. He returned to before liberation.

Let it all go to waste.

Favors are reciprocal, even if it is Guo Wei, Chu Linguang must let Guo Wei see that he can feed back the favors, so that he can learn more from Guo Wei.

"it is good."

Guo Wei saw that Chu Linguang was resolute, and he also had hope for Chu Linguang, so he finally nodded.

"Thank you, Master."

Chu Linguang breathed a sigh of relief. If Guo Wei didn't let him go, he couldn't disobey Guo Wei, even if Guo Wei had good intentions.

"Master Zhuo, when will Lin Guang leave?"

Guo Wei asked.

"Let's give him two days!"

Zhuo Yi smiled.

"Thank you Master Zhuo."

Guo Wei cupped his hands and said, knowing that Zhuo Yi had finally arranged these two days and wanted them, master and disciple, to make more preparations.

Then Guo Wei asked Heihu to book two superior guest rooms in Fengyue Tower and arrange for Zhuo Yi and Master Xu to stay there. Zhuo Yi released a homing pigeon in front of Guo Wei and told Uncle Du Guo that Chu Linguang was about to enter the training ground. , let Uncle Du Guo handle the follow-up matters.

Guo Wei knew that from today on, Chu Linguang would be Uncle Du Guo's disciple.

He immediately explained Chu Linguang's precautions seriously.

He also told Chu Linguang in detail about the factions in the imperial court and the camp that Uncle Du Guo was in. Chu Linguang learned from it that Uncle Du Guo and Wei Yongguang were in different camps. Although the two did not clearly support a certain prince, they had mutual feelings for each other. There has always been competition between the two.

Partisan strife has existed since ancient times.

If Chu Linguang wants to gain a foothold in the court, he has to overcome this hurdle. Fortunately, he is just a martial arts scholar now, so he doesn't have to worry too much. The only thing he needs to pay attention to is to seize this rare opportunity and obtain the Dazzling results.

During Guo Wei's explanation, Chu Linguang realized that even noble children could not easily enter the training ground to practice.

If he had not defeated Samba and invisibly helped the Yuan Dynasty, and Du Juan had witnessed it with his own eyes, Uncle Du Guo recognized his potential, otherwise he would not have been able to take this opportunity to successfully enter the training ground to practice, and Only three months.

At the same time, Guo Wei also explained that in the trial venue, listen more, watch more and talk less. Don't worry about offending people inside. You should do everything you can to get good results, but when you come out, you should forget about the honor and disputes inside.

After the trial, Guo Wei will take Heihu and Wang Chao to pick him up.

Chu Linguang wrote them down one by one.

Then Guo Wei took him to Fengyue Tower to entertain Zhuo Yi and Mr. Xu. After having a full meal, Chu Linguang bought daily necessities and some gifts in the wine street.

This time he will be away for three months. Chu Linguang wanted to leave something for his second aunt's family and buy something for Guo Wei. He bought a brocade box and put the Great Return Pill in it.

This Great Returning Pill was given to him by Du Juan and was worth thousands of gold. It could not only replenish Qi and blood, but also enhance the power of the Dragon Elephant. Chu Linguang wanted to leave it to Guo Wei.

Guo Wei treats him as his own son. Apart from letting people know that Guo Wei has taken on a good apprentice, he has not brought any substantial feedback to Guo Wei.

This Great Return Pill is the first feedback.

Early the next morning, Master Xu and Zhuo Yi came to the martial arts hall. Guo Wei personally received them. During the tea break, Master Xu handed a roster to Chu Linguang and said: "Master Chu, although you have not been awarded the title of martial arts examiner by the imperial court this time, However, you can get the status and treatment of a military examiner, and an additional one hundred taels of gold. As for this roster, as long as you write whose name information, you can exempt them from taxes and corvee. After you finish writing, give it to me. Today I Let the people from the Yamen handle it and send the documents and laws to those people."

"Okay, thank you Mr. Xu."

Chu Linguang was extremely grateful.

The Yuan Dynasty had detailed regulations.

Military examiners can exempt others from taxes and corvee, but there is a quota limit. In addition to immediate family members, the number cannot exceed ten households and the number of people is within fifty.

Although the second aunt Zhang Chu's family is related, according to the court rules, they cannot be regarded as direct relatives. Chu Linguang had to record the identity information of their family in detail.

Then Chu Linguang first wrote about his second aunt and his family.

Then he looked at Heihu, smiled slightly, and also wrote down Heihu's family. According to Heihu's qualifications, even if he fails to pass the provincial examination nine months later, he will definitely pass the next one, even if he doesn't help this time. Heihu's family was exempted from taxes and corvee, and in a few years Heihu would also be exempted from taxes and corvee for his own family.

But at this time, helping Heihu's family to be exempted from taxes and corvee is the icing on the cake. What's more, Heihu and Zhang Linghua are dating now. As an uncle, he can help at a critical moment, so how can he turn a blind eye.

Even without Zhang Linghua's relationship, Chu Linguang would have filled in the gap for Black Tiger based on their brotherly relationship.

Heihu stood aside and served Mr. Xu and the others tea. After seeing Chu Linguang get the roster, he began to write it on the spot. He couldn't help but peeked at Chu Linguang.

When he saw the names of Zhang Linghua's family, he secretly thought that when the two got married in the future, the Zhang family could give them more dowry. When he saw the names of their family, Heihu was startled at first, and then he felt that Chu Linguang's back became like a mountain. My mind was rapidly thinking about which of my other cousins ​​were waiting to be married, and I had to introduce one to Chu Linguang.

Finished writing The Black Tiger Family.

Chu Linguang fulfilled his promise and included Zhang Dahu's family.

Then he thought of Butcher Hu and Chun Ju's family.

Hu Tutu has always valued love and righteousness, and is impeccable in terms of human sophistication. During the battle with Samba, he gathered the wine street bosses to cheer for him at the entrance of the martial arts gym. He was not afraid of being ruined and being implicated if he lost. .

Chu Linguang kept this friendship in mind, and now was the time to repay the favor, so he also wrote down the members of Butcher Hu's family.

As for Guo Wei and Guo Fang, they have long been separated from the civilian category.

After thinking about it carefully, Chu Linguang wrote the three characters Li Yishan behind the names of Hu Buthu and his family.

Although Li Yishan has good martial arts skills, he is limited to ordinary people. Although he has participated in martial arts examinations, he has not passed the exam.

Now he works as the guard commander of the Li family in the north of the city. The taxes he usually pays are only a small part of the monthly money he earns.

But being able to help him avoid it is just a favor, not to mention that he also asked the other party to help take care of the Zhang Chu family. An extra favor will make the other party more concerned.

As for why Guo Wei is not allowed to take care of the Zhang Chu family, first of all, there is an obvious difference in identity between the two, and secondly, if Li Yishan can solve the problem, why bother Guo Li Yishan can't solve it, Guo Wei knows that there is something wrong with the Zhang family, and Guo Wei will take the initiative to help without having to explain it.

Finished writing Li Yishan.

Chu Linguang thought carefully and wrote Uncle Niu's name behind Li Yishan.

That day, Uncle Niu's goat was taken away by Zhang Dahu. After Chu Linguang wrote a note asking for the goat back, Uncle Niu then sent a large bowl of goat milk.

Of course, a bowl of goat milk is not enough for Chu Linguang to give back so much. The key is that when he returned to Liujiagou that day, his neighbors avoided him. Only Uncle Niu greeted him. Chu Linguang helped Uncle Niu exempt himself from taxes. Let other villagers remember.

At the same time, because of this, Chu Linguang only wrote Uncle Niu's name, but not all of Uncle Niu's family.

He was able to exempt ten families from paying taxes, and he was able to ask Mr. Xu to take back the legal documents after the exemption, and only write about Uncle Niu. This was not only for other villagers to see, but also to test Uncle Niu's conduct as a person. If he understood the meaning of this, Due to the wisdom of the world, it was not too late for Chu Linguang to write down the names of his family members.

If Uncle Niu felt resentful because he only wrote about himself and did not include the names of other people in his family, and there was a matter of favors and enmities, then Chu Linguang would cross them out.

Now his identity is different from before.

If others feel that the favors given are taken for granted, Chu Linguang can take them back at any time, and he will not be as helpless as before.

Only in this way will everyone be in awe of him and know how valuable his favor is.

Chu Linguang is not in a hurry for the few households that are vacant. There will be plenty of opportunities to fill them up in the future. It is even necessary to let people know how many permissions he still has left, so as to earn another wave of favor points.

After finishing writing, Chu Linguang handed the list to Master Xu.

Mr. Xu immediately ordered the arrester to go to the county government to handle the matter. Before tonight, documents and decrees exempting tax and corvee would be sent to every household on the list.

evening.

The wine street is as lively as ever.

In Butcher Hu's butcher shop, there were still several kilograms of sun-dried three-layer meat hanging. He used a piece of cloth to drive away the flies on the stall.

"Hey, Lao Hu, it's been a few days, why don't you see anyone from the martial arts exam coming to see you?"

Liu Sanqian, who sells grain and oil next door, joked that he was a villager from Liujiagou and relied on Chu Linguang's reputation to open a small grain and oil shop on the wine street more than two months ago.

"What do you know? Brother Chu is busy these days. He will naturally think of me when he is free."

Butcher Hu said dissatisfied.

"Brother Chu saved our mother and son. Even if he doesn't come to see us, when he is free, we should take the initiative to see him and say hello to him."

Chunju was sitting in the shop with her Linguang saved her back then. She was pregnant and gave birth to a fat son for Butcher Hu. Now she is pregnant again and is already three months old.

The couple had always been thinking about Chu Linguang's kindness, but they didn't expect what Chu Linguang would bring to them after his brilliant rise.

"People's hearts are not equal. If I were Chu Linguang, after winning Samba that day, I knew that you and your wife were willing to give away hundreds of pounds of meat. Even if I didn't have time, I would still find something to do to see you. To tell you the truth, Since he won the samba, he has never returned to Liujiagou."

Liu Sanqian said sarcastically.

"Hehehe, although Sanqian's words are unpleasant, they are reasonable and reasonable. Chu Linguang is not what he used to be. He no longer lacks the meat of your old Hu family. You two should be more careful and don't disturb others. In case you are rejected. It’s you who are embarrassed at the door.”

Boss Huang, who was selling porcelain and selling porcelain across the street, joked.

"boom!"

"Brother Chu is not the kind of person you say he is."

Butcher Hu was furious and struck the boning knife on the chopping board.

"Okay, just think I'm talkative, I didn't say anything."

Boss Huang knew that Butcher Hu was angry, so he returned to his shop with a smile. He and Liu Sanqian looked at each other, shook their heads and smiled bitterly, secretly cursing Butcher Hu that he was a fool.

It is really wishful thinking for a butcher to want to climb a high branch.

"Don't get angry with others. It's good that Brother Chu understands our feelings. It doesn't matter whether he comes to see us or not."

Chun Ju quickly comforted her.

Butcher Hu nodded. He had been running a butcher shop for so many years and had seen all kinds of people. He was naturally open to it, but if Chu Linguang just forgot about him, he would inevitably feel a little unhappy in his heart.

"Is this Butcher Hu's butcher shop?"

At this time, two official servants came to the door of Butcher Hu's shop. Butcher Hu had just sat down to rest, thinking that there was business in the shop. Unexpectedly, he got up and saw two official servants. He hurriedly greeted with a smile: "Yes, sirs, I am Hu butcher."

"Are you two officials here to buy meat?"

Chun Ju said nervously, and the couple felt uneasy. It was generally not a good thing for official officials to visit.

Liu Sanqian, Boss Huang and the nearby neighbors all noticed the two officials and gathered around to inquire, thinking that Butcher Hu had committed something.

"Boss Hu, don't be nervous. We are here to deliver legal documents. From now on, your old Hu family will no longer have to pay taxes, let alone worry about being taken away to work as a corvee."

The leading official smiled and sent the documents and decrees to the butcher Hu.

Everyone was shocked when they heard this and looked at the two officials in disbelief.

Butcher Hu's hand that he had just extended was so frightened that he quickly retracted it and said incoherently: "Ah... these... two adults, what are the virtues and abilities of my old Hu family?"

"Two officers, we are just ordinary people. Are you correct in this legal document?"

Chun Ju asked in disbelief.

"That's right, it's your family. It's clearly written on it. Mr. Xu also specifically told us to hurry up and deliver it."

The official replied.

"what?"

Butcher Hu and Chun Ju had dull expressions on their faces, and the couple nervously took over the legal documents.

Another official explained: "Don't worry, you two. You can be exempted from taxes and corvee. It is a document issued by Mr. Chu, the future military examiner, to Mr. Xu to issue for you."

"Master Chu defeated Samba and gained some momentum for our Baiyang County. The imperial court awarded him an extraordinary reward. Although he is not yet a martial arts scholar, he is better than a martial arts scholar. Not only can his immediate family members be exempted from taxes and corvee, but also ten families can enjoy the same benefits. Treatment, you are one of those families.”

The leading official added.

"It turns out they are all brothers Chu. I knew he would not forget me, Lao Hu."

Butcher Hu burst into tears when he heard this.

"When can we repay Brother Chu's kindness?"

Chun Ju also wiped away tears.

The couple summoned the wine street shop owners that day to cheer for Chu Linguang at the entrance of the martial arts gym. At first, the other owners were reluctant to go, for fear that Chu Linguang would be implicated if his reputation became the end, the couple promised that as long as everyone went with them, no matter whether they won or lost, they would give each person a pound of meat, so everyone went with them.

Although Chu Linguang was busy these days, he never came to see the couple when he appeared in Fengyue Tower several times. Although the two did not say it, they felt more or less resentful in their hearts.

Now that they saw Chu Linguang helping them exempt them from taxes and labor, the couple realized that Chu Linguang had never let them down and had always been thinking about them.

"Young Master Chu has a bright future. We are both envious of you for being able to make friends with him. Master Xu said that he will leave Baiyang County tomorrow. If you have time, remember to see him off."

The leading official said again.

"Okay, thank you sir, sir, please wait a moment."

Butcher Hu wiped away his tears, wrapped the remaining kilograms of meat in the shop with reeds, and handed it over to the two officials. He said enthusiastically: "You two officials have worked hard. I hope you can accept it if you are kind to me."

"This... haha, thank you very much, Boss Hu."

The two officials looked at each other and smiled, and finally understood why Chu Lin Guangneng was thinking about a butcher shop owner.

"Close the stall and go home."

After seeing off the official, Butcher Hu said to Chun Ju.

"Eh."

Chun Ju nodded, Chu Linguang would be leaving tomorrow, and the couple had to go home and prepare.

"Did you hear that, Chu Linguang exempted Boss Hu and his family from taxes and corvee?"

"This is a great favor. My descendants will not have to suffer in the future."

"Hey, it's all our fault for being undecided. If we could have supported Chu Linguang like Lao Hu did at that time, maybe we could also benefit from it."

"Did you all hear it? The two officials said that Chu Linguang can exempt ten families from tax and corvee. The whole wine street is only owned by Boss Hu and his family, so the quota must still be vacant."

The shop owners on the Liquor Street were talking a lot, and they all looked at Butcher Hu and his family with envy.

Liu Sanqian and Boss Huang didn't come to their senses for a long time. They had just tried to persuade Butcher Hu not to have any whims, but they didn't expect the slap in the face to come so quickly.

Not only did Chu Linguang not forget about Butcher Hu, he even exempted Butcher Hu's family from taxes and corvee. This kindness was much more valuable than visiting him in person.

"Hey, it's all my own fault."

Boss Huang sighed and returned to the shop dejectedly.

Liu Sanqian also returned to the grain and oil store and sat there, looking as if he had missed out on a huge sum of money. He even forgot to entertain the guests.

Zhangjiagou.

The Zhang Chu family also quickly received the document and decree exempting them from tax and corvee. Although the family had already thought that after Chu Linguang was elected, he would definitely help them exempt them from tax and corvee as soon as possible, but when they received the document and decree, they still controlled I couldn't help crying with joy.

"Our family owes Lin Guang a lot."

Zhang Da said with emotion that Mr. Hei had just made him the foreman of the tile factory, and only Hei Hu's second uncle was above him in the entire tile factory.

Wages are also twice as much as before.

Unexpectedly, before the joy was over, Chu Linguang sent another big surprise.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Lin Guang is one of his own family now."

Zhang Chu reminded.

"You bitch are right."

Zhang Day was startled, then cried.

"A written decree exempting you from taxes?"

"Yes, Mr. Chu exempted you from this."

The official sent the document to Zhang Dahu. Zhang Dahu couldn't believe it at all and was so excited that he couldn't speak. Chu Linguang did what he said, which made him feel like a dream.

"Master Guo has taken on a good apprentice."

Mr. Liu learned from Zhang Jiating that Chu Linguang exempted her daughter and her family from taxes, and sighed sincerely.

He is a private school teacher, and the imperial court gives preferential treatment to people like him. He does not have to pay taxes and perform corvee, but he cannot help Zhang Jiating avoid it. Now with Chu Linguang's help, his daughter and son-in-law can also live a good life.

Liujiagou.

A large number of people gathered at the door of Uncle Niu's house.

"Hehe, let's have another bowl!"

Uncle Niu also received a written decree. Although it only exempted him from taxes and corvee, it also reduced a lot of burdens and gave him more time to graze sheep in the mountains.

He squeezed two bowls of milk to entertain two official servants.

"No, Uncle Niu, it's getting late, we have to go back first."

The two officials walked slowly.

Uncle Niu gave them a ride.

When he came back, he saw Aunt Liu and others looking at him with unpleasant expressions.

"Uncle Lao Niu, Chu Lin Guangming can exempt your whole family from taxes and corvee, but why only you are exempted?"

Aunt Liu said sarcastically.

"I usually don't do much to help others. It's already a great kindness to exempt me from taxes and corvee. At least for the rest of my life, I don't have to work early and late as before. I have to repay this kindness."

After speaking, Uncle Niu returned to the sheep shed and threw the fresh fodder into the sheep pen.

"Looking at his proud look, isn't it just that he has been exempted from taxes and corvee?"

"If I were Chu Linguang, if I wanted to be exempted, I would be exempting their whole family."

Someone shouted sourly.

"If I had known better, I should have believed him in the first place, and maybe I could have benefited from it."

"I heard that he was able to help several families exempt themselves from taxes and corvee."

"Now that he doesn't even come back from Liujiagou, it's all our fault."

Some people regret it too much.

"Hey, Liu Sanqian is back."

"Three thousand, did you know that Chu Linguang exempted Uncle Niu from taxes and corvee?"

Aunt Liu said to Liu Sanqian.

"Oh."

Liu Sanqian glanced at Uncle Niu who was enjoying himself in the sheep shed and nodded dully.

"Don't you want to talk about it?"

Seeing that Liu Sanqian didn't respond, Aunt Liu led someone to ask.

"Chu Linguang also exempted Butcher Hu's family from taxes and corvee."

Liu Sanqian replied.

"what?"

Everyone was stunned, it turned out that Chu Linguang still remembered Butcher Hu.

Aunt Liu suddenly thought of the scene when Chu Linguang came back on horseback that day, greeted him at the door, and closed the kitchen doors and windows himself.

If I was as enthusiastic as usual that day, maybe Chu Linguang could also help his family avoid taxes and corvee. After all, I was ungrateful, and Aunt Liu couldn't help but cry when she thought of this.

Many discerning people realized that Chu Linguang exempted Uncle Niu from taxes and labor to remind them that Chu Linguang had a clear distinction between grudges and grievances. He would neither forget everyone's good deeds nor forget everyone's deeds. Only if he takes people's favor seriously, he will also take everyone seriously.
