Yang Shaofeng is definitely a gentleman. If we talk about the world's understanding of Confucianism and various schools of thought, we may not be the second person to think of him. A gentleman wants to be quick-witted and slow to speak. This means that if he can do something, he should not force himself.

Since the saints taught this, Yang Shaofeng certainly would not use tricks such as treating guests to the Hongmen Banquet or other secretly sending people to block the door. Instead, he rode directly on the snow and then took a group of horsemen to the shop of the Daiwang Mansion.

As soon as he arrived at the shop door, Lin Yu, behind him, pointed at Liu Shaoze, the eunuch of the Daiwang Mansion who was sitting on the chair at the shop door of the shop, and said, "Brother-in-law, this is Liu Shaoze, the eunuch of the Daiwang Mansion who was the chief eunuch of the Daiwang Mansion."

Yang Shaofeng looked at the fat man in front of him, and the anger in his heart was burning wildly, but he dared to sneer? His fat face was almost squeezed into a slit, and he was still pretending to be here?

Liu Shaoze also looked at the group of people in front of him, and couldn't help but sneer.

Yang Dianma isn't he? If you have the ability, you smash the shop to see if the prince will smash your dog's head with a small hammer in his sleeve!

Seeing that Liu Shaoze looked at him with disdain, Yang Shaofeng sneered: "It's just that you, a dead eunuch, corrupted His Highness Dai Wang's reputation, did not pay commercial taxes, and tried to provoke the relationship between the Tian family? Come and take the person!"

After Yang Shaofeng finished speaking, two border city yamen runners walked towards Liu Shaoze with shackles. At this time, Liu Shaoze's face turned red, and he didn't have the smiley look like he was just now. In his rage, even his voice became sharp: "Who dares! Our family is from the Dai Prince's Mansion!"

The two yamen runners stopped immediately and even began to secretly regret why they hadn't taken a vacation, such as the mess of fighting between gods. It would be hard for anyone to get involved!

Seeing that the two yamen runners were scared, Liu Shaoze couldn't help but sneer: "Yang Dianmai, our family knows that you have a good relationship with the royal family, but you have to know what the world's surname is!"

Little by little, Liu Shaoze walked towards Yang Shaofeng and sneered: "This world is the surname Zhu! Our Dai Wang is the brother of today's son. Your surname is Yang. You have to see your identity clearly. Don't even know how you die at that time."

Yang Shaofeng took out his ears and sneered: "Are you finished talking?"

Liu Shaoze snorted coldly and said, "Our family is for your own good! If you take our family today, it is equivalent to slapping His Highness Dai in the face, which is equivalent to slapping Daoshi in the face. Our family asks you, do you want to rebel?"

Yang Shaofeng laughed loudly, then directly pulled out Shang Fang sword and swung it towards Liu Shaoze. Until a big head soared into the sky, Yang Shaofeng sneered and said, "Zi said, a gentleman wants to be quick and slow in his words."

Looking at Liu Shaoze's head without any worries, Yang Shaofeng turned his head and ordered, "Why are you still standing there? As soon as you take all the accounts and check the accounts, take the tax bank you should pay away immediately and send someone to the Prince's Mansion to send a message. If you send such a dead eunuch here, one will come and I will kill one!"

As the saying goes, a timid soldier was a timid man, Yang Shaofeng killed people and established his authority in a straightforward manner, and directly screamed all the yamen runners, following Lin Yu and Wu Ming, rushed into the shop of the Dai Palace, and began to search through boxes and cabinets.

It was not until a long time later that Yi Xiao and Bai Geng walked out with a few accountants and a few yamen runners carrying tax silver that Yang Shaofeng opened his half-closed eyes, pulled the reins in his hand, and ordered: "Next, the shop of the Duke of Wei!"

There is no secret in the small border city, especially those shops that are very close to each other, which can be seen from a distance. There is no need to send someone to inquire about the news before Liu Shaoze is completely lost. The news that Yang Shaofeng killed the eunuch in charge of the Daiwang Mansion on the street was already known to everyone.

The remaining itinerary was very smooth, and no shopkeeper dared to sit in front of the shop with a big golden knife, and no shopkeeper dared to speak wildly again. Instead, he honestly prepared all the books and waited for Yang Shaofeng to come and check it on the spot.

It was not until the sun set in the afternoon that Yang Shaofeng ended the tax collection action.

After returning to the tutoring department, Yang Shaofeng called Liang Jinglun, Qi Mutang and others directly. After the two double-flowered red sticks Wu Ming and Lin Yu who arranged the tax silver were all arrived, Yang Shaofeng said directly: "This tax will be collected in the future!"

Liang Jinglun, Qi Mutang, and Cheng Han, who were frightened by the head, looked even worse than crying. Liang Jinglun forced a smile and bowed to Yang Shaofeng and said, "Yang Tiju, this tax will be easy to collect in the future. At least these princes and nobles will not have the courage to resist the tax again."

Seeing Yang Shaofeng nodding, Liang Jinglun plucked up his courage and continued: "But you also need to know that you killed the dead eunuch Liu Shaoze today, where is His Highness Dai?"

Yang Shaofeng half-squinted his eyes, as if the one who killed people in the street was not him at all: "If the King Dai had the courage to bring his army to the border city, he would be rebelling.

If he doesn't have the courage, what am I worried about him? Worry about him complaining to His Majesty? Or are he worried about him sending someone to assassinate me?"

Besides, I, Yang Shaofeng, was my turn to make trouble, and Zhu Gui's evil man complained first? When he knew that the dead eunuch Liu Shaoze was killed, I guess before he finished writing the memorial, my memorial had already reached Zhu Laosi's hands!

Seeing Yang Shaofeng's appearance of indifferentness, Liang Jinglun couldn't help but frown and said, "The lower-ranking official is the deputy of the border city. He is responsible for the emperor's order. He has reported this matter to the emperor in detail, so that Yang Tiju will never be wronged!"

Qi Mutang also nodded and said, "Yes, it was originally the thief Liu Shaoze who relied on His Highness Dai's name to be rampant. Yang Tiju had no choice but to kill him. This was to eliminate harm for the country and to preserve His Highness Dai's reputation. Naturally, we cannot sit idly by."

Seeing the two of them picking Yang Shaofeng cleanly in a few words, and by the way, they also add countless auras of not fearing power, focusing on the country, strong points, etc., Cheng Han was immediately impressed.

No wonder I am just a ninth-grade official, and these two bigwigs have already reached the top of the fifth-grade high. This is the gap.

Seeing that Qi Mutang and Liang Jinglun both turned their eyes to him, Cheng Han, who felt under a lot of pressure, smiled and said, "Secretary thinks so too."

Yang Shaofeng said with a smile: "No hurry to write to Your Majesty for the time being. Today we will strike while the iron is hot and set this rule first."

After considering it, Yang Shaofeng said: "The new commercial tax rate, the court has already stated in the official documents, and there will be no such thing as scholars and nobles exemption in the future. We cannot control the other places, but the city here must be handled in accordance with the rules of the Ming Dynasty.

The tax collection will be the same as today. Liang Tiju or Qi Tiju brought the account room to check the tax, and then transported the tax bank back directly. If anyone dares to take any airs to resist taxes, he will directly ask Wu Ming to bring the yamen runners or Jinyiwei people to talk to him.

However, I think after Liu Shaoze’s incident, no one will dare to resist taxes in the future, right?”

Liang Jinglun nodded and replied: "Yes. After today's incident, I believe everyone will pay the tax honestly in the future."

Qi Mutang said, "How to deal with this tax and silver is a big problem."

Seeing that Yang Shaofeng looked at him and knew that Yang Shaofeng had no experience in doing odd jobs in six households, Qi Mutang explained: "My Ming Dynasty has always collected taxes in spring and autumn. In autumn, the autumn must be escorted to Beijing before the end of the year. Now the spring taxes collected are actually already in the 14th year of Yongle. Before all these taxes and silvers are escorted to Beijing, they are usually found in the treasury of various places.

However, our border city is neither under the jurisdiction of Wanquandu and Xuanfu. I think this tax bank can only exist in the Curry of our border city.

And most importantly, some of the tax bank do not need to be escorted to Beijing. They are usually intercepted according to the previous year's plan to report to the court to be used for various projects and other expenses."

After Qi Mutang said this, Yang Shaofeng understood.

Taxes are collected, but they cannot be sent to the court. They have to leave some to deal with local expenses, such as bridges and road construction.

More importantly, there is no treasury here in the border city. This small city is still far from the specifications of the treasury to be built.

But the problem comes when the city of the border city does not surrender to the Tianfu, the martial arts do not surrender to the Wanquandusi, the Honglu Temple outside, and the Ministry of Rites inside. This is a freak directly under the Ministry of Revenue.

To solve the current problem, you must first build a warehouse for tax and silver storage in the border city with the approval of the Ministry of Revenue, and then arrange temporary workers like Kuding to officially deposit the money.

Before that, how to store these silver has become a big problem.

If you put these money directly on the yamen of the tutoring department, it would be equivalent to throwing all the risks on Yang Shaofeng himself. Any mistakes would be all the responsibility.

As for storing it in other places, let alone whether it can be obtained after storage in places like Shuntian Mansion and Wanquandusi, no one is willing to take this responsibility alone.

After a while of silence, Yang Shaofeng said, "Storage it first in the Tujusi Yamen, Wu Ming arranged for people to guard it. I will write a memorial book now and try to solve the matters of the Dean Wang and the Treasury.

In fact, Yang Shaofeng could already imagine the expression when Zhu Laosi received his memorial.
