"Have you heard of the letter to all the people in Naran?"

"Shh! Do you want to die? The imperial court forbids everyone to talk. Stop talking! I don't want to be caught in the dungeon!" The man looked around.

Another person also looked worried and didn't dare to mention it again. He changed the topic and talked about the new tax problem: "this year's tax has been increased again, and except for pure female households, every family must have a man to perform military service! I just hope the imperial court can quickly capture Nalan!"

"It's not. I thought that even if it was to increase taxes, it would start next year. After all, this year's taxes have been paid! I didn't expect to make up!"

"There's nothing we can do about it. How many more soldiers has the imperial court added now! Don't the soldiers have to eat? Anyway, every family has children to perform military service, and the extra tax should be regarded as rice for the children at home!"

"Only think so. I just hope the war will end as soon as possible, otherwise it will be sad in the future."

"It's nothing. If the imperial court gets the breeding method of producing thousands of kilograms of rice and wheat per mu, it's nothing to pay such a little more tax!"

Listening to their conversation, he said in a very low voice, "it seems that Beiming does not allow the people to spread the book of the people."

Nalan Jinnian nodded: "well, it's smart."

He thought that the king of Beiming had read such a letter to all the people. He sneered and would not care.

I didn't expect that the king of Beiming cared!

However, if Beiming didn't allow the people to spread, wouldn't they?

The northern Ming Dynasty's Lacrosse is not allowed, and the more he wants people to spread it!

Warm thought of something with bright eyes: "I didn't expect that Beiming country would increase people's taxes so soon, which is a good thing for us!"

The grain she brought can be sold at a high price!

"Yes." Nalan Jinnian also thought that Beiming Congress would increase taxes next year. After all, it is the end of the year.

"The king of Beiming is ambitious. According to this, it is estimated that he will launch a large-scale aggression against Nalan in the coming year! Now there are a large number of conscripts and more soldiers, and the expenditure of the imperial court will be large. If you don't increase taxes in advance, you can't support a large-scale war."

However, it was really good for them that the monarch of Beiming increased taxes so quickly.

The team moved forward slowly. Not long later, it was their turn to accept the inspection and enter the city.

Xia Xuan took out the household sticker.

The soldiers guarding the city took a look: "Lv's rice shop?"

The LV family's rice shop is only a small one in the city. No one cares.

He took another look at the carriages behind him. Sure enough, there were only a few!

Not much grain!

"Is it all grain?"

Xia Xuan kept a low attitude and said in a very low voice, "yes, officer! There are some groceries bought from everywhere. Officer can check them."

The soldiers guarding the city checked the goods of several carriages behind them, found that most of them were grain, and let them go.

At present, the transportation of grain out of the city is relatively strict. There are still no restrictions on selling grain to enemy countries and transporting grain into the city.

Warm several people smoothly entered the city.

Then in the civilian area of Anfeng City, the backyard of a shop stopped.

The backyard is a small yard with two entrances.

The rice shop is located in the civilian area of Anfeng city.

The cities of Beiming state are similar to those of Nalan state. Each living area of the city has the functions of dividing power, expensive areas, rich areas, civilian areas and poor areas.

In Beiming state, these regions are completely different, and there is a great gap between the rich and the poor.

The residences of powerful and rich people cover a very large area.

The people's houses in the slums are low, and they are Adobe houses. Generally, they are a family of several generations, several brothers and sisters, a total of more than a dozen people crowded in a small courtyard.

Civilian areas are better. They are between the rich and the civilians. They are people who open small shops and do small businesses in the city.

Most of the yards are one or two.

Of course, people who can live in two yards here are small rich families who don't worry about food and drink. They are better than the top.

Xia Xuan stepped forward and knocked rhythmically on the lacquered wooden door.

Hearing the rhythmic knock on the door, the people inside hurriedly asked, "who is it?"

"Lv Shu, it's me. The two young masters have returned from the grain collection. Open the door quickly!"

The door opened with a squeak.

Inside, a 17 - or 18-year-old man came out and stood there
