Chapter 253 Must be collected
The disciples of Zixiao Mansion standing inside have fallen to pieces. This is what Tang Yue learned in Wuji Mountain. She can release her pressure in a targeted manner. She can already target a single person. Personally, I have used my coercion.
To knock down a group of people now is of course intentional, just to knock down the people of Zixiao Mansion with one stroke. When the Qionghua Pavilion disciples behind Tang Yue saw how arrogant the young pavilion master was, they felt reassured and looked on. He also became stern and arrogant, as if this trip was not to collect taxes, but to defend his honor.
"Tang Yue, what are you doing? Put away the pressure, or I will be rude." After all, the master of the palace could not let go of the dignity of the monk who transformed into gods, and used pressure on a little girl. Although this little girl He has a higher level of cultivation than any of his disciples present.
The Nascent Soul cultivators in Zixiao Mansion are all high-status stewards and elders, so they will not participate in such things that are emboldened by the crowd.
Tang Yue put away the pressure and bowed to the master of the palace, "Master of the palace, I am here today to collect taxes. It is legal and legal. Not only did the disciples of your mansion refuse to pay taxes, they also questioned us, Qionghua. After the law enforcement power of the pavilion is spread, how can we collect taxes from the merchants in the city and ensure the stable development of Kunwu City? So I have to take this step and take action against your high disciple. I hope the palace master understands my difficulties? "
"You brought so many people to my house to cause trouble and used coercion to intimidate my disciples. You want me to understand your difficulties?"
"I know that the master of the house treats me. My mother and I are so prejudiced and intolerable, but please think about Kunwu City. Taxes are used for public affairs in the city, such as raising disciples in your house; building bridges and paving roads to facilitate travel; and relieving the poor. People, let them live. All this requires money, and the money comes from taxes in the city, so everyone has to pay taxes."
Cao Yanjun listened to her and silently paid it to himself. He was slapped with many hats and said angrily: "When did I target you mother and son? When did I say I wouldn't pay taxes?"
"Everyone has not forgotten that the Zixiao Mansion disciples brought The disciples of the aristocratic family blocked the entrance of Qionghua Pavilion and made trouble. It was me who tried my best to stop them and made sacrifices to prevent the matter from getting bigger. How can you forget that? "
"You still dare to mention that matter?" What about sacrifice and sacrifice? Tang Yue threatened the safety of the family son and allowed him to give up such a huge benefit in Zixiao Mansion. It was completely done in her mouth. Good thing.
"Master, I mention this to tell you that my mother may still be a little scrupulous and maintain a false peace with you, but I am young and impulsive, and I can't bear it. I hope you can Haihan, pay all the taxes you should pay, otherwise I don't know what I will do if I get anxious."
Cao Yanjun understood that Tang Yue was going to be a rogue to the end, "We Zixiao. The government will take the initiative to pay the taxes, and you don’t have to come to collect them.”
“That’s not necessarily the case. You have not paid the taxes for two years, and you still have various debts that range from six months to five years. It's past the repayment date. In the past, my mother might have forgiven you, but I can't. During the two months I served as the Young Pavilion Master, the city's losses were all borne by me. I can't afford this. Money, so you must pay the taxes and debts today."
Tang Yue asked the brothers to bring two account books, "This is the account book that records the taxes you should pay and the debts you owe. Please bring out the account books of the mansion to check with us. Palace Master, please rest assured that our Qionghua Pavilion only accepts what we deserve."
"This is unreasonable. It is too much to bully others. Our Zixiao Mansion will never be in such a humiliating situation. Hand over the money. "
Cao Yanjun is also smart. He doesn't talk about reason, but only talks about face and shame. The current situation is a bit embarrassing.
"Master, what you said is wrong. It is only right to pay back the money you owe, especially if you still owe money to Kunwu City. How can you not pay it back? Zixiao Mansion is the yearning of the monks in the city. This school is an example, how can it leave the impression that the people refuse to pay taxes and are arrested for repaying loans? Do you want to encourage the people in the city to follow suit and refuse to pay taxes, causing trouble? The heart of Kunwu City? "
"Nonsense, I, Zixiao Mansion, have worked hard for Kunwu City, how can I mess with Kunwu City?" He really wanted to kill this woman with one blow, but he still had to worry about it? Tang Yue's identity and backing meant that he didn't even dare to use his spiritual power.
“I believe that the master of the palace does not have this intention, so I took the initiative to collect taxes at your door to help you eliminate this stigma. I am also worried that after the interest of your mansion is compounded, you will not be able to pay off the debts. I really have good intentions. Ah.”
"I just refuse to pay taxes today, what will you do?"
Tang Yue looked cold, "According to the laws of Kunwu City, those who refuse to pay taxes will have their homes confiscated to compensate for the taxes. If there is anyone who hinders the confiscation of their homes, they will be punished." He was arrested on the spot and executed on the spot for his strong resistance." Master Zixiao laughed angrily, "You want to execute me?"
Tang Yue bowed, "I don't dare, it's just for protection. The sacred legal dignity of Kunwu City. In order to maintain the culture of paying taxes on time in the city, I, the monk of Qionghua Pavilion, intend to fight to the death. The head may be cut off and the blood may be shed. The dignity of Kunwu City cannot be lost. Our reputation is the most important thing. Soldiers, we will defend our city and our homeland to the death.”
A senior brother who also likes to make noises heard this and took the lead in shouting: “Defend our homeland to the death and defend the honor of Kunwu City. !”
The monks behind him shouted together, and the sound was loud enough that everyone outside Zixiao Mansion could hear it clearly. They were wondering: Could it be that a large number of enemies appeared in Zixiao Mansion, and everyone is fighting now? middle?
Otherwise, what are you defending in Zixiao Mansion? Shouldn't it be at the city gate?
Some people saw that something was wrong and wanted to report the situation to the city lord. Tang Yue had already prepared for this and had already sent people to guard and intercept those who wanted to report.
There are not many people who can communicate with the city lord. Cao Yanjun, the master of the palace, can, but he is unwilling to ask for help from the city lord in public. In this way, he will lose all face in front of his juniors.
He felt desolate amidst the thundering shouts. All kinds of face, favors, and interests were of no use in front of a "newborn calf not afraid of tigers" like Tang Yue. She didn't want face and was not afraid of offending him. Want spiritual stones.
He also refused to fight with the other party's people. Qionghua Pavilion collected taxes as a matter of course. It would not benefit Zixiao Mansion if they caused a quarrel. It might also prove their crime of refusing to pay taxes and damage the prestige of Zixiao Mansion.
Furthermore, a god-transformation monk was forced into a fight by Nascent Soul Child. After word spread, he no longer had to hang out in the world of immortality.
After thinking about it, Palace Master Cao gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, I will give you taxes and debts today, and I will also remember what you did today."
"Thank you, Palace. The Lord understands justice well. It would be great if you could remember to pay taxes on time in the future, so that we can do less proactive tax collection in the future, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive and delays a lot of work.”
Cao Yanjun couldn't listen anymore. He was afraid that he would be angered and his Taoist conscience would be damaged.
Tang Yue gained a lot from this trip. He moved boxes of spirit stones and materials back. Tang Wenhua still wants to plot against her? Let's first take a look at how many things your dear senior brother has embezzled from the city. This is just tax evasion and does not include corruption.
Next, Tang Yue went to various aristocratic families to check their accounts, collected taxes for three days, and asked them to make up for the taxes. When the big family saw that Zixiao Mansion had surrendered, they also obediently surrendered.
There was just a lot of resentment in my heart, and I thought darkly: If Miss Tang has offended a group of people, sooner or later someone will deal with her, let alone support her rise to power. Let's see how many more days she can be arrogant.
Tang Yue looked at the tax money in his hand and felt that it would take a while. The key is to prove that collecting taxes from big families is feasible.
He called all the senior brothers, "Let's discuss it. Let's get rid of the head tax and change it to a commercial tax."
