Chapter 241： trouble
Boss Zhou returned with a smile, "No one died in the village, only a few people were bitten by wolves."
Zhou Lao Er replied, "However, the chickens in the village are basically gone, and there are still a few houses with low fences. After the pigs they raised were eaten by wolves, the rest were taken away, and one died in the village. Cow, there is not much left to eat, everything that can be taken away is taken away, only the head and bones are left."
The poultry raised in the village have basically disappeared.
Yang Dayong asked, "Didn't you kill the wolf?"
Zhou Lao Er shook his head, "No, this time the wolf came down the mountain and ran for the poultry. He didn't hit the door or the window to enter the house. The injured people were also bitten to save the poultry."
Zhulan knew that wolves had a strong ability to cooperate, listened to orders in particular, and was very deliberate. I really didn't expect that, seeing this in ancient times, this was premeditated!
Yang Dayong smoked a cigarette, "The wolves listen to the alpha wolf very much, and this alpha wolf is very smart, only staring at domestic animals, this is not a good thing, after one experience, the wolf learns quickly, and will continue to do this next time. , the good news is that the poultry in Lijia Village is gone, and Lijia Village is safe."
Bad news, other villages will suffer.
The rest of the words were not spoken, and everyone understood in their hearts.
There was no snow in the next few days, the road was clear, and the news could be exchanged. These days, as guessed, the wolves swept several villages one after another, and the poultry was basically dead, and Zhoujia Village was not spared, but no matter how powerful They are also beasts, wolves have died a lot, people have also died, and old people who lived alone have died.
After about seven days, it snowed again, and the snow was not small. In front of nature, human beings seemed very small. Especially in ancient times, there was no technology to predict and defend.
The heavy snow stopped for two days, and then it didn't fall again, and the road was cleared again after nine days.
Zhulan likes to stock up on supplies. She originally bought a lot of salt in the winter, but she went to buy some after the heavy snow last time. The road was clear. Zhulan asked Zhou Lao Er to go back to Lijia Village to see Xuemei and took ten catties. Meat and a few big bones, and a chicken, three of my own hens froze to death.
The meat was Zhulan's own pork. After Zheng Yang left, Zhulan killed both pigs in the family. She didn't sell any meat.
Zhou Shuren went to the county to inquire about news. In the afternoon, Zhou Shuren and Zhou Boss came back.
Zhulan asked, "What news have you heard?"
Zhou Shuren said: "Our side has suffered a small amount of disaster, and the disaster around the capital has been severely affected, but there are already ways to relieve the disaster."
What Zhou Shuren was most afraid of was that the Northeast and foreigners were severely affected. In winter, the northeastern frontier was already unstable. If it was really bad, the foreigners would definitely launch wars in order to survive. By then, the situation in the Northeast would not be stable, and the new dynasty would not be established yet. To improve, the main energy is to stabilize the domestic situation and improve the governance. There is no extra energy to completely solve the frontier issue. Since the dynasty established the frontier, there has been no stability.
Zhulan said: "How to solve the disaster? In the 12 years since the establishment of the dynasty, droughts and floods have been plagued by disasters. After a few years of good weather and rain, there has been a snow disaster. Big, the national treasury doesn’t have much money, and there won’t be much food, so how do you manage the disaster?”
Zhou Shuren relieved the cold air on his body, put his slippers on the kang, and said, "I don't know who came up with the idea to distribute the disaster relief food to each state, how much food each state produces, and then transport it to the disaster relief."
Zhulan, "It must not be the granary in Kaizhou City for disaster relief. The state city is distributed to each county, the county is distributed to each village, and each village is distributed to each household. To put it bluntly, the food is still from the mouths of the common people."
Zhou Shuren said: "The county magistrate has just received the official document, saying that there has been no tax increase in the past few years, and the past few years have been good. In order to be exempted from taxes, not only do you have to pay the grain of the land under your name, but the scholars also have to pay an additional 50 catties of grain, 200 catties of grain for a person, and officials all pay the grain equally."
Zhulan frowned, "What about the merchants in the county and those without land?"
"I don't know. I only know this. It is estimated that the grains paid by the merchants will not be less, and there should be not many people without fields."
Zhulan frowned, "This head doesn't open well. If it tastes the sweetness, wouldn't it be like this in the future? It's the people of the lower classes who will take the most responsibility."
Zhou Shuren sighed, "This time the emperor must have been forced to do nothing. Although he has just collected taxes, he can barely support the annual expenditures. No dynasty has collected grain. This dynasty is not bad, and the annual campaign has not increased. The land tax is not too much collected this time.”
Zhou Shuren continued: "I have analyzed the emperor, and he is a rare wise man. The policies in recent years have been good. After the snow disaster, the business that has been suppressed for more than ten years for tax purposes will probably relax a little. I guess the emperor originally wanted to stay. It is a pity that natural disasters and constant military chaos have to be done ahead of time, and once the policy on Shang is relaxed, it means that the frontier problems will soon be solved by troops."
Zhulan's mind reacted quickly, "The Zheng family and the Yang family have caught up with the opportunity, and now the small-scale wars are gathering military merit, and when the soldiers are really used, Wuchun and the Zheng family will not be small soldiers, at least they will be safer. If you really do meritorious deeds, you will not be afraid that someone will be greedy for meritorious deeds.”
Zhou Shuren calculated the amount of grain to be handed over, 130 catties. "Fortunately, this year's grain is not sold, and the price of next year's grain will definitely increase."
Zhulan lamented that it was not easy to survive in ancient times, "In recent years, food will not be cheap."
On the second day, Lizheng organized a donation of grain. After the grain was donated, the yamen was waiting for the harvest. Thanks to the good weather, although there were not too many complaints, the emperor's goodwill has also dropped a lot~www.novelhall. com~ Not all people are righteous, most people at the bottom only care about their own family, and never care about national worries.
Fortunately, there has been no heavy snow, and the disaster area in the capital has also been resolved. Half a month later, the villages are reading the letter of thanks written by the emperor from the county government, thanking the people for donating food to solve the disaster. This set of methods is deep enough. I don't know if the letter was written by the emperor himself, but the public opinion lost by a letter has increased a lot, and the people are excited. This is a thank you letter written by the emperor, thank them!
Zhulan listened to Zhou Shuren's letter, "Our founding emperor really knows how to play with people's hearts."
Zhou Shuren smiled, "Which founding emperor is simple."
When Zhulan thought about it, it was not easy to start a country, especially the founding emperor who rebelled.
Time flies, Zhulan has had a good winter this winter, there are no bad people, Wo Dong is the most comfortable, maybe Zhulan and Zhou Shuren are too comfortable, and seeing the New Year is approaching, big trouble comes to the door.
Zhou Lao Er replied, "However, the chickens in the village are basically gone, and there are still a few houses with low fences.
