Chapter 30: Seems like I'm missing something

"... Zhang Feng?"

In a room in the castle that Zhang Feng named the study, Caroline stood by the side pinching the corner of her clothes, her tone a little hesitant.

"What's wrong?"

Zhang Feng put down the sheepskin scroll about the tax of Hongye City in his hand. He was a little speechless at the messy taxation.

"Well, I want to ask, do you still have that medicated soap..."

Caroline's ears were hot, and she didn't dare to look directly into Zhang Feng's eyes.

"Medicated soap? For bathing?"

"Ok."

Caroline hummed softly.

Zhang Feng pretended to take out the mountaineering bag next to him and took out a bottle of shower gel.

"It's better for you to use this."

Zhang Feng briefly introduced how to use the shower gel.

"Oh."

Caroline sighed, seeing that Zhang Feng continued to look down at the sheepskin scroll again, ready to leave silently.

"Wait a moment."

Zhang Feng suddenly made a sound, and Caroline paused.

"Our taxes are a bit too complicated!"

Zhang Feng shook his head helplessly.

"Huh? Tax?"

Caroline didn't react for a while.

"Yes, I'm going to change the tax, all these messy taxes will be eliminated!"

Zhang Feng's tone was somewhat firm.

"Remove? But the main source of our Red Leaf City City Lord's Mansion is taxation..."

Caroline was a little puzzled. After all, her and Zhang Feng's modern thinking is still very different.

"Look at this toll tax, stay tax, maternity tax, single tax, wife tax, etc., what a mess! No wonder Hongye City is poor, and it has to pay taxes for everything, so it's better not to do it. Now, if it's me, I'm not motivated anymore!"

Zhang Feng was a little unhappy, and thought in a different position. If he lived in such a world, he would eat every day and wait until he died.

"Then how do you want to change it?"

Although Caroline couldn't understand it, Zhang Feng is now in charge of Hongye City. No matter what decision he makes, she fully supports it.

"There are only a few main taxes, the others are too complicated, and they can't collect much money at all. It not only wastes our manpower and material resources, but also increases the burden on the common people. The gains outweigh the losses."

Zhang Feng intends to transfer some of Blue Star's tax systems. The current tax is too unreasonable. Even Zhang Feng doesn't know why these former lords thought of such a bizarre tax.

"Well, I'll listen to you."

Caroline's eyes were a little surprised. She thought she was better for the commoners, and she didn't give up on them when Hongye City was the most difficult, but compared to Zhang Feng, she felt that she was still a lot worse.

She just wanted these commoners to survive, and Zhang Feng not only allowed them to survive, but also made their lives better!

The thoughts of the two people instantly reached a judgment.

Hongye City can welcome such a fraternity city lord, Caroline is sincerely happy for the people of Hongye City.

"Well, there is still a need to revise the household registration system. Starting tomorrow, the population of Hongye City will be registered, accurate to the number of people, and foreign population will not be accepted for the time being..."

"The conscription also has to be put on the agenda. Tomorrow, let's make the conditions first. If anyone comes, I'll tell you something else..."

"The city hall also has to recruit people, and I don't know if there are talents who are proficient in internal affairs. First, improve the treatment..."

"The salt and sugar in our hands also need to be dealt with. Let's see when we can get these big businessmen together. What's the point of making money from the common people. They are the big ones..."

"There is also the most important street hygiene problem. It's too dirty and messy. This must be rectified, ruthlessly rectified..."

"…"

Said it was a discussion, but it was actually Zhang Feng who said it. Caroline nodded like a chicken pecking at the rice.

It's not that she was perfunctory, but that she felt that what Zhang Feng said was right, and she had no angle to refute at all.

As soon as the box was opened, Zhang Feng felt that he was slowly entering the state of being a lord, but there were many things that needed to be changed in Hongye City, and he couldn't eat a fat man in one bite, so he could only write it down and improve it gradually.

After talking for a while, seeing Caroline standing beside her, her eyes were a little dazed, Zhang Feng knew that she had said too much, and it was difficult for her to digest it for a while, so she changed the topic.

"What do you want for dinner?"

"Well, you're right!"

Zhang Feng: "..."

Caroline: "…"

"Forget it, let's eat whatever you want."

Zhang Feng personally soaked two bowls of Laotan Pickled Cabbage Noodles, and then added ham, marinated eggs, large chicken legs, and a box of canned fish to each bowl.

Oh yes, there is also a bottle of Fat House Happy Water.

"Horrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!"

Caroline couldn't stop the extremely rich instant noodles.

Every time Zhang Feng sees Caroline eating, she thinks it's weird. She eats about the same as a man, but she doesn't look too thin, and she doesn't grow any fat.

However, weight is a personal matter, so Zhang Feng didn't feel ashamed to ask.

After eating and drinking, Zhang Feng asked his servants to throw out the garbage, Caroline's expression was a little awkward.

Zhang Feng naturally found out, he asked strangely:

"Do you need anything else? Just say it, if I have it."

"No, no, I, I..."

Caroline waved her hands quickly, her eyes a little flustered, but in the end she made up her mind to say.

"Well, in which room are you going to rest at night?"

As soon as these words came out, Caroline quickly lowered her head. If Zhang Feng observed carefully, she would find that Calorie's ears were all red, and the lake-like eyes were dripping with water.

But Zhang Feng obviously didn't notice it.

He thought a little bit in his heart, it's not good to have too many houses, and he has to worry about which room to sleep in every day!

"I just saw that there is a very big room next to the study. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com is also very well lit. I'll sleep here in the future. It's getting late, so you should rest early."

Zhang Feng was afraid of trouble. There was a good room next to the study, and it was far from the study to facilitate his work.

"…Oh."

Caroline bowed her head, her tone was flat, and she couldn't see her expression clearly.

Looking at Caroline who bowed her head and left with the shower gel, Zhang Feng rubbed his swollen temples.

"It always feels like I'm missing something..."

The next morning.

There was a group of people watching the bulletin board in the red leaf city square.

Everyone who is still here knows that the current situation in Hongye City is not optimistic. The reason for them not leaving is either because they have no money to travel far, or they are waiting for the last business opportunity.

I heard that a new city lord has taken office, and they all set their sights on the new city lord. Some people are full of expectations for the new city lord, but most of them still have no confidence.

Today, I heard that there is a new city lord's decree on the bulletin board. No matter what mood everyone has, they all come to watch it, although most of them are illiterate.

"Huh? New tax law!"

An old man exclaimed in surprise when he saw the font on the notice board.

"What? Is there another tax increase!"

"We can't live any longer, and we have to increase taxes! This new city owner..."

"It's over, I thought there would be a good city lord, but now it seems..."

For a while, the crowd was excited, but they were still restrained and did not insult the city lord, otherwise they would be caught insulting the nobles, but they would be imprisoned.

"Mr. Dobin, what the **** is going on with Nian Nian!"

Someone asked this old man for advice. The old man's name was Dobin, and he was one of the few literate people in Hongye City.
