Chapter 859

After all the ink, paper and inkstone were taken, Zhao Qixiu spread out the paper and asked: "the harvest in Jiangnan is not good these two years?"

The leading bandit shook his head and said, "the harvest of Chengdu in the past two years is good, and the weather in Jiangnan is good this year, unlike the frequent sea breeze in previous years!"

"Since the harvest is excellent, why are all the people in the city pale and skinny? Why don't Chengdu hide the grain and not eat it? Afraid of being robbed? " Zhao Qiwu didn't even think about it. He said a few words he heard in anbihuai this morning.

The voice just fell, met Zhao Qixiu mercilessly a violent chestnut.

Zhao Qiwu didn't understand what he had said wrong, which made his elder brother unhappy. He immediately looked back at Zhao Qixiu.

Because of his young age, the little bandit saw that the general, who was always respected by the world, would also be beaten. If he wanted to fight himself, only he, like them, would be beaten.

"What are you laughing at? What's funny? Just ask what you want. Do you understand?" Zhao Qiwu lost face, just can't find the steps, see this little gangster dare to laugh at himself, immediately roared at him.

The little gangster's son was no longer afraid of them, and believed that they would not do anything about themselves, so he boldly said: "I have never seen a majestic general taught, so I can't help laughing!"

"You --" Zhao Qiwu's face was like the black charcoal in the kitchen. He stretched out his hand to beat the little bandit.

The little bandit hugged his head and said, "it's the general. You can answer whatever you ask just now. Will the villain be beaten if he answers?"

On one side, Zhao Qixiu knocked on the table to signal Zhao Qiwu not to make any more noise. He looked at the silent bandit leader: "since the harvest is very good, why can't the people eat enough? Is there something else in it?"

When he said that, the bandit leader clenched his dry lips and muttered: "taxes!"

Taxes? Jiangnan is located in a remote area. The emperor did not order Jiangnan to pay too much taxes. As far as he knows, the taxes in Jiangnan are only 30 stone grain a day. It is reasonable to say that as long as there is no disaster, they can be paid. How can it be because of taxes.

Without waiting for him to ask further, the leader of the bandit told the story: "you don't know something. The taxes in Jiangnan are not only the grain collected in the fields, but also the fish taxes by the sea. No matter whether we people go fishing or not, as long as your family is here, you have to pay five liang of silver every year."

For the common people who dig food in their fields, the five Liang silver, even if they sell all the grain for a year, can not be taken out, so it has the present situation.

"How can this anbihuai dare to do such a thing without telling the emperor?" Zhao Qixiu fiercely clapped the table and stood up. His move startled everyone.

Zhao Qiwu also accumulated a stomach of anger, picked up the sword across the table and rushed out.

Seeing that he was so reckless, Zhao Qixiu immediately took him by the arm and said, "don't you scare the snake when you go to him at this time? We need to grasp his evidence to effectively bring him to justice. You don't understand this truth, or you are really like Luo Haitian. You can only lead soldiers to fight."

Being taught by his elder brother, Zhao Qiwu can't find other words to defend himself for a while, but just like Zhao Qixiu said, he really only acts rashly.
