The county government!
Yuan Huan sat at the head of the table while Lu Liang, the Clan Leader of the Lu Clan, stood proudly below him. The members of the Lu Clan beside him were all aggressive, looking as if they were hoping to tear down the county government.
The two people opposite him were the patrol leader recruited by the county and the farmer who was beaten up. The farmer was a little timid and hid behind the patrol leader. The patrol looked at him coldly. Even though he was in the county office, he was not afraid at all!
Yuan Hen glanced at the patrolling soldier and praised him in his heart. He was indeed a hero. Before he could shift his gaze, he heard the system's beautiful voice!
Ding!
"Congratulations to user, scan successful. The general information is as follows!”
[General: Zhou Tai]
[Characteristic: Thick Skin (Zhou Tai has extremely strong defense. He can reduce damage from enemy units by 60% and can convert up to 30% into his own strength!]）
Weaknesses: 1. There are loopholes in the saber technique, and there are blind spots in the lower body defense. 2. Dare to charge and fight, but not have a strong sense of the overall situation; 3. Abhor evil;4.
It was Zhou Tai?
In fact, when Yuan Huan first entered Xiacai, he had already found Zhou Tai through the people function near WeChat. It was only because Zhang Zhao and the others were too eye-catching that Yuan Huan ignored Zhou Tai.
But it didn't matter. He had been summoned back by Yuan Huan. Even Sun Wukong couldn't escape from Tathagata's grasp, so how could Yuan Huan let Zhou Tai escape?
At this moment, Lu Liang bowed and said,""Young Master Yuan, I am Lu Liang, the head of the Lu Clan of Lower Cai. I am suing this person for killing my clansmen in broad daylight. I hope that Young Master Yuan can enforce the law impartially and follow the law!”
"Of course!" Yuan Hen replied indifferently. This Young Master will ask you, what is the name of your clansmen? Why did they argue with the farmers who opened up wasteland and even beat them up!”
"Young Master, this is what happened!"
The person in charge of collecting food from my Lu family is my cousin's son, Lu Ba. He is seventeen years old and is in the prime of his life. In the process of collecting food from this person, he did not expect to meet with a calamity!
I hope that Young Master Yuan can return my Lu Clan, the dead Lu Ba, and justice to the people of Xia Cai!”
Yuan Huan waved his hand to signal Lu Liang to stop, then turned to Zhou Tai."Do the two of you have any objections to this?”
"Master," Qin Ning said timidly,"I have no choice. The Lu Family's land tax is too high. Sometimes, the grain we grow every year isn't enough to pay the tax!"
The little one had no choice but to escape and register at the county government to open up wasteland.
Not only did they get paid every day, but they could also have their own fields. More importantly, the taxes were low. Such a good opportunity, even if I had to risk my life, I would still want to take a chance!”
Zhou Tai waved his hand." I'm just carrying out an order. Anyone who dares to obstruct the reclamation of wasteland will be killed without mercy!"”
"Good! Very good! Very good!"
Yuan Huan nodded with interest and gave Zhou Tai a thumbs up.
Lu Liang thought to himself," What an idiot. He still dares to put Young Master Yuan in front of him at this time. It seems that I, Lu Liang, will definitely win this lawsuit!"
After I win this lawsuit, I, Lu Liang, want to see how your new policy of opening up wasteland will be implemented! At that time, it won't just be my Lu family alone! Humph!"
Unexpectedly, Yuan Huan turned to Lu Liang and asked,""The imperial court has a clear rule that the land tax of the aristocrats cannot exceed five tenths. But according to what I know, your Lu family's tax has already reached eight tenths, right?”
While he was thinking, Yuan Hen continued to ask,""The imperial court has a clear rule that an ordinary family can raise up to 30 tenants, but according to what I know, your Lu family alone has hundreds of tenants!”
Lu Liang replied vaguely,"This…"
Yuan Huan ignored Lu Liang and continued to ask,""Dare I ask, Master Lu, do you know that the imperial court has a clear rule that forbids private land annexation and trading? According to the rules, your Lu family seems to be unable to exceed 100 mu of fertile land!
But what about you? According to the information filed by the county government last year, under your name alone, there are 138 mu of paddy fields. The other 46 people in your clan have a total of 1,537 mu of fertile land, right?”
Instantly, Lu Liang felt his mouth go dry and his entire body became uncomfortable.
This time, Lu Liang finally couldn't hold it in anymore.""Young Master! My nephew, Lu Ba, was indeed wrong to hit someone, but he did not cripple him for no reason. There was a reason!”
Without thinking, Lu Liang blurted out,"It's because this person didn't pay enough land taxes, so my nephew…"
"Oh!" Yuan Hen cut him off. In other words, the Lu family collected eighty percent of the land tax from the common people? Lu Liang, how dare you do something beyond the rules. The current Emperor only collects two-tenths of the land tax, but you dare to collect eight-tenths?”
Qin Ning mustered up her courage and retorted,"Ten Five? I've stayed in your family for more than ten years, and I've never lowered my eyebrows. The most infuriating thing was that during the year of the bumper harvest, the land tax was as high as ninety-nine tenths!”
There was an uproar outside the county office.
"What is it? The imperial court stipulated that they could only collect a maximum of five tenths of the tax? His Majesty only took two-tenths?"
"I've never paid a five-tenths of the land tax in the Lu family. All of it is more than eight-tenths. What a profiteer!”
"Bastard! Lu Liang, you're really too ruthless!"
“......”
Instantly, all kinds of curses drowned out the entire county government.
"Lu Liang, what else do you have to quibble about? The eyes of the masses are bright!”Yuan Hen suddenly stood up and said,"Men!"”
Dian Wei immediately appeared and cupped his hands."Young Master!"
"The Lu family has broken the rules and disobeyed the laws of the imperial court. Immediately send troops to confiscate the family and take all the gains.”
"Shock Points from Lu Liang 1000!”
In an instant, the crowd was furious and the mountain shouted for good!
Naturally, Zhou Tai was acquitted in the court. He was promoted by Yuan Huan as the captain of the patrol team. He was responsible for assisting Li Cunxiao in overall management, supervision, and inspection!
Ding!
