Chapter 18 Dog bites dog (1)
Wang Hua thought too complicatedly. The Huang family offered a price of 3 million, but it was not that complicated. This was a sky-high price, and he paid back the money. Wang Hua went out twice and made a lot of money back, but no one knew how much he made. Even Wang Hua earned from the right path or the evil path, and some people were doubting it.
Now due to the increase in population, more and more privileged classes have emerged. They not only enjoy a large amount of land, but also have the right to exempt tax due to regulations (such as after passing the imperial examination, the family can remove taxes, and there are officials above the fifth rank, filial sons and grandsons, and charity husbands and polite husbands and polite husbands and women). However, the tax cannot be reduced, so they are distributed to other people. Moreover, when the government itself is insufficient in equal land, it has to rent two stones of grain for each Dingnu, and adjust two zhang silk for two zhang, and six zhang of mediocre silk. As for the ninth grade made by the Tang Dynasty, it is also a scam. Some wealthy families colluded with the government and actually paid the lowest tax, which means that the richest families paid the lowest tax. The government's total tax is unwilling to reduce, so they once again distributed these taxes to the common people.
In general, when Wu Zetian was in power, the Tang Dynasty generally moved forward, but the number of fugitives was also increasing rapidly.
These fugitives were unable to survive, so they fled to other places, and some worked in workshops like Kong Heizi. Kong Heizi is an exception. The workers at this time had a very poor status. They were not allowed to absent from work for a day, and they were absent from work when they were busy. They were deducted from work, and they were deducted from work when they were sick and had to work. They took care of themselves in the workshop, and damaged the tools in the workshop, and other regulations were equivalent to changing direction slaves.
Or they become tenant farmers and farmers, not only paying half of the harvest, but also helping landlords to work as handymen for free. It is just that the progress of society has improved and improved slightly compared to the previous tribes and tenants. But life is also extremely miserable. Even when marriage is done, the masters must allow blackmail. Some even have bad masters to kill tenants. This is still good. Some have become slaves and tribes. Tenants, and they will never think of being a human being in their lifetime.
Therefore, some people could not bear it anymore and finally chose to be robbers or even robbers. Tianling Mountain is close to Luoyang, and this situation is better. Going further away, to Dabie Mountain and Funiu Mountain, some robbers appear among the wild grass.
Some people suspect that Wang Hua’s origins are unknown, which is normal in this context.
Seeing that the Wang family was not moving, the Huang family became anxious. He came to the door and negotiated with the Wang family.
But at this time something big happened.
Wang Shen's family was stolen. On the night of the second day of the New Year, someone stole more than 20 taels of gold, more than 700 taels of silver and some jewelry from his room. This number is an astronomical number for the people in the mountain village.
Wang Shen's wife woke up early and found that she was stolen. She cried and called her mother. Wang Shen ran to the county government office to report the case. After hearing Wang Shen's report, the county magistrate first asked, "You are sleeping in the bed and you have someone open the box, but you don't even know."
Wang Shen was also frustrated and was not easy to answer. Then he said that the suspect was Wang Hua, but in fact he had no clue when saying this. God knows who did it, so he would bite it first. Regardless of whether it was Wang Hua or not, the kid's source of wealth was unknown.
When the county magistrate heard this, he seemed to have forgotten about this matter. Last time, the young man from the Yu family gave him some money to secretly deal with the devastated Wang family. He just raised the tax last year, but he has not taken the second move until now. This time, the boy from the Wang family came back and made a fortune. Regardless of whether Wang Shen suspected it was true or not, he would first ban the boy and then talk about it.
The county magistrate ordered the county magistrate to take the yamen runner to Wang Yi's house to pick up people.
At this time, Wang Hua was in the fermentation pit to see how much the bamboo was fermented. Several yamen runners rushed over fiercely and wanted to arrest people.
Wang Hua looked a little angry, and he flashed over quickly and asked, "I'm asking, this envoy, what crime have I committed? Do you want to arrest me?"
"Boy, I suspect you stole the property of Wang Erlang's family. Also, your property is unknown. Let's go back to the county government with me." Last time I was benefited from the Yu family. Regardless of whether Wang Hua was innocent or not, I mentioned that the county government beat dozens of boards and said that he could still explain to Wang Shen and the young man of the Yu family that beating Wang Hua to death would not mean that he would give them a breath?
Wang Hua said: "Li Hong, tell him how my money came about."
He had no choice now. Four yamen runners were catching him, jumping around the pit of fermentation. Wang Hua was smart and the four people were catching him, but they couldn't catch him, and were cursing. Originally, Wang Hua didn't want to reveal his identity, and he was not afraid of being stolen by thieves, but he was afraid of being missed by thieves. It's better now, burning new porcelain in the future, generating huge profits, and more jealous people. The above King of Yama is easy to see, but the following little ghosts are very difficult to deal with. It's better to tell them out of their identity and let them grind them one by one when they reach out.
Li Hong came to the county lieutenant, but no one stopped him. The county lieutenant looked at her with a pair of erotic eyes.
Li Hong felt a little angry when he saw it, and he held back his anger and whispered: "You really want to capture my husband, but you have to think about it. My husband is someone that the emperor appreciates. Now I have made it clear, you can catch him."
Twist his butt and stay away from him.
This sentence finally made the county lieutenant enlighten. Since he had a position as a county lieutenant, he would not have any dementia officials as they were portrayed on TV. They were all top figures, and even if they were deliberately pretending to be crazy. When he heard Li Hong say this, he still didn't understand that this king's painting was the king's painting, and he was still in vain. There were also a few big men and maids, one big and one small. After a comparison, it was not a young man who almost broke all the yamen runners in Yanshi County in order to find him?
They were at the upper level, and the news they heard was not the kind of news that the people were talking about. Although Wu Zetian did not appoint this young man, they appreciated it very much and even received two hundred gold medals. Wu Zetian did not appoint it, it may be because he took the initiative to leave Luoyang again.
In other words, although this young man is a commoner now, he has a bright future.
The county magistrate was shocked and shouted loudly in a sharp voice: "Stop, stop."
Stop quickly. Otherwise, the misunderstanding will be a big deal, and that will be a problem. Originally, Wang Hua's father sold the porcelain kiln a few years ago, and it seemed that his ex also played a disgraceful role in the middle. Now, because of the Yu family, since last year, the county has suppressed his family.
This child is not very good to the county officials. He is young now and hasn't remembered it yet. Maybe he will see Wu Zetian again next time and cry. People like him are waiting for bad luck. Not to mention that he may enter the officialdom, and he may become a big official because of Wu Zetian's trust. No matter which result, he cannot provoke this young man.
The yamen runners were puzzled, but why did the little girl just whisper and the chief immediately changed his mind. They stopped angrily. A few living people caught a child for a long time but failed to catch him. It was so embarrassing.
Wang Hua then came to the county magistrate and asked, "What do you call this envoy?"
The county magistrate replied politely: "Erlang, just call me Bai County magistrate."
"It turned out to be the Bai Shao Mansion. Can you ask, I have never done anything illegal before. Why did the Shao Mansion bring people to arrest me? He didn't even have the chance to tell me?" Wang Guo's tone was gentle, but the tone was sharp.
County Magistrate Bai is not easy to answer. I came here on purpose. As for what Wang Shen said was Wang Hua stole his property, is it possible? A lacquerware worth tens of millions, would he go to steal his family's money? Not to mention his source of wealth. Not to mention how much wages Baolinzhai gave, Guangwu Zetian himself had a bounty of two hundred gold. He had the intention to go back immediately this time and beat Wang Shen to death.
He said with a pile of laughter: "This is a misunderstanding, this is a misunderstanding."
After hearing this, Wang Hua continued to ask, "Oh, now you're not getting it wrong?"
The county magistrate nodded: "Now I'm not getting it wrong."
Wang Hua still said slowly: "But I think in my heart that there are many officials in Gongxian County who want to deliberately punish my family. Bai Shao Mansion, is this idea considered a misunderstanding in my heart?"
