Great Tang's Talented Little Landlord

Li forgot to worry about hearing the speech, but he was not nervous at all. He kicked Li Heng with his foot: "go, you stubborn old man. There are people from the county government. Now it's too late for you to regret."

In fact, he had already made up his mind to protect his old housekeeper. Anyway, he has released all the slaves and maidservants, and the county government will not have to take the old housekeeper away for sale.

The old man is old enough to sell for two or three dollars at most. Surely the county government won't be so unkind?

"I don't regret it, the old slave doesn't regret it." Li Heng got up from the ground quickly, wiped his face carelessly, and then went forward to guide Li forgetful worry. They rushed to the front yard.

The front yard of Li's mansion was in a mess at the moment. The Yamen in the county yamen stopped all the slaves and maidservants who wanted to leave Li's mansion with their own packages on their backs, and none of them were allowed to leave.

Li forgets to worry that Liu Xiao, the county government secretary who visited last night, also came, following behind a middle-aged man in a light green nine grade official robe.

Datang is divided into two systems: Prefecture and county, and the county is divided into upper, middle and lower levels.

Huxian county is a middle County, and the county magistrate is wearing light green official clothes. Not surprisingly, this person is Yang Zui, head of Huxian County, and Yang Ming's house.

Li Qieyou hurriedly came forward and bowed: "Qieyou has seen Yang Mingfu. It's far from welcome. It's much to offend."

"Li Xiaolang, the county asks you, why do these slaves and maidservants leave the house?" Yang Zui asked with a bad face.

"Huiming mansion, because life in the mansion is difficult now, the boy can't afford so many slaves and maidservants, so he released them all early this morning. Let them find their own way to live, but I don't know why the Yamen guards stopped them?"

Li Lianyou's lies also came with his mouth open, but they were stunned by Yang Zuan and Liu Xiao.

Liu Xiao was even more stunned. Last night, he kindly reminded the Li family Xiao Lang how he did such a ridiculous thing again?

It's good to release the slaves and maidservants of the whole house. What is he trying to do? Why is this Li Xiaolang acting so recklessly?

Liu Xiao couldn't figure out the reason why Li forget you did so. As an official of the Tang Dynasty, how could he understand the idea of Li forget you as a modern man.

County Magistrate Yang Zuo threw his sleeves angrily: "ridiculous! Li Xiaolang, do you remember that your family owes the county government 2 million yuan?"

Li forgot to worry and smiled: "Huiming mansion, boy naturally remembers that it's just to save money to pay off the debt. I kicked out these bastards who eat white rice in the mansion so as to save money to pay off the debt."

"You..." Yang Zuo was so angry that he almost bit his tongue: "presumptuous, are you playing tricks on the county?"

"Boy, don't dare." Li forgot to worry and replied calmly.

He is also ready to rely on it. Anyway, he is young and is not afraid of what the county magistrate can do with him. There should be no blacklist of Laolai in Datang, right? I'll be an old man of the Tang Dynasty today.

"Then tell the county that you will transfer 100 mu of fertile land in the house to the Li clan and free the slaves as good. What will you take to pay back the two million yuan of the county government?"

Li forgot to worry, smiled and pointed to the main room behind him: "Ming mansion, why don't you go to the main room and sit down and talk about it in detail? Don't worry, the public money boy of the county yamen won't default. Why don't you ask the Yamen to let these slaves leave? They all have the release and exemption documents I wrote down, and they are good people now."

"Hum! The county has not naturalized them, and they are not my good people in the Tang Dynasty!" Yang Zuo snorted coldly and said with dissatisfaction.

"Is the Ming government ready to force Liang into a slave?" Li forgets to worry. He smiles.

The reason why Li forgets to worry about the county magistrate's refusal to release people is that soon after the founding of the Tang Dynasty, he experienced the chaos in the world at the end of the Sui Dynasty and the sharp decline of the population.

Both Li Er's attitude and the attitude of the government hope to increase the population as soon as possible. Slaves and maidservants do not pay taxes or accept corvee. They are only the private property of their master's family.

Therefore, the government is actually encouraging the people to release and avoid slaves as a good thing, but in the face of interests, no one will do like Li forgetful.

In fact, Li forgot his worries not because he was forced by the county government and was unwilling to take slaves and maidservants to pay off his debts, nor would he release all the slaves and maidservants in the house.

Now that these slaves and maidservants have the release and exemption document written by their master's house, they are already loved ones from the legal point of view. If Yang Zui refuses them to naturalize again, or even catches them for sale, Yang Zui's black hat will come to an end.

Li forgot his worry and was so angry that Yang Zuan shook his clothes and turned and walked to the main room.

"Li Xiaolang, you today... Ah." the chief bookkeeper Liu Xiao wanted to say something about Li forgetting to worry, but he didn't know what to say. He could only sigh, turn around and wave to the Yamen servants, motioning them to let them go.

Seeing the Yamen of the county government get out of the way, these slaves who were released from Li's house don't care to say more, for fear that the county government will change its mind and catch them back.

Hurriedly saluted Li forgetful again, then turned and left quickly. Seeing that all the slaves and maidservants in Li's house had dispersed, Li forgot to worry. Only then did Li grow a tone in his heart. Politely, he asked the Lord Bo LiuXiao to sit down in the main room.

At the moment, only the old housekeeper Li Heng was left in Nuo Da's Li house, but another person flashed out of the back hall. It was the little servant girl Peilan.

Without saying a word, she poured a bowl of water for Yang Zuan and Liu Xiao, and then retreated to one side again.

Yang Zuan looked at them and asked Li QIAOYOU, "are there only two slaves left in your family?"

"The old slave is the only one left in the Ming House. If you have the heart, take her away to pay the debt. I've already let the little girl go. The Ming House can't take her away." Li forgets to worry and replies with a smile.

The old housekeeper Li Heng also smiled and nodded, indicating that he was the only servant in the house.

"Hum!" Yang Zuan was half angry at his words again, and ruthlessly picked up the water bowls on several cases and drank them.

If he forcibly takes the old slave away from Li's house, he will sell it for two or three times to pay off his debt. It will really become a joke if it gets out.

"Li Xiaolang, it's not that the county wants to force you. Your family supervised Huxian before, and it's also the boss of the county. It's not that the county is unreasonable, but your family owes too much public money!" Yang Zuo saw that the matter was so far, so he had to stop.

"Go back to the Ming mansion and forget your sorrow. Thanks to the kindness of the Ming mansion, my adult has not come to the house to force me to pay back the money for more than a year. Forget your sorrow is grateful and dare not forget the kindness of the Ming mansion."

"That's how you repay the county?" Yang Zui asked discontentedly.

Li forgot to worry and smiled bitterly: "back to the Ming House, the public money was borrowed by my adult, and naturally I will pay it back. I'm really ashamed to resell the slaves and maidservants in the house to pay off the debt. That's why I did this absurd thing. I hope the Ming house will forgive me."

Seeing that Li forgot to worry, Yang Zui didn't say much. He sighed again: "Hey, Xiao Lang, you're confused. Now you've been removed from the clan and released your maidservants. What do you take to pay back the public money?"

Liu Xiao, afraid that Li forgot his worries and didn't understand, explained: "Xiao Lang, it's not because we don't show affection. It's all stipulated in the law."

He explained the regulations in the Tang law to Li niangyou, which stunned the relaxed Li niangyou. It seems that it's hard to be an old Lai of the Tang Dynasty!
