Behind me is the earth

"Master, we instigated the tax collector to go to the Ren Mansion, and the Ren Mansion actually beat him out! His nose was bruised and his face was swollen, how pitiful he is!"

"Okay, okay!

The villain becomes rampant when he succeeds! If God wants it to perish, it must first make it crazy! Ren Zhengsheng is really getting more and more crazy, and he probably thinks that no one in Qingcheng Town can control him! "

Xie Yanwu stomped his feet happily: "The Ren government slaps the tax collector, which is equivalent to a slap in the face of the county magistrate. Ren has offended the county magistrate this time, and he will suffer the consequences.

After this, we will slowly encroach on his property. "

He was so excited.

"But will it make the tax collector Wang unhappy?"

The subordinate asked worriedly.

"No matter what, we didn't treat him well every time he came to Qingcheng Town, and he didn't take away the money every time. It's clearly recorded in my account book. He doesn't help us with such small things, no matter how good it is. Why give it to him?

Besides, with the wealth of Ningxiangzhai, how could Tax Collector Wang not want to take a hand in it? It is full of rich oil and water! "

Xie Yanwu didn't care about Tax Collector Wang's feelings.

First, Xie Yanwu understood Wang’s tax collector’s character. Like him, they were both money-loving people.

Secondly, although the king's tax collector is called a tax collector, like him, he is not a member of the imperial court system. He only serves as an aide to the county magistrate, and that's all.

He was even inferior to Xie Yanwu in terms of status. Behind him, he had the support of the entire Qingcheng Town gentry class, while Tax Collector Wang had only the county magistrate behind him. Honor and honor depended on others.

"However, why has there been no movement on Tenglong Mountain? Without Master Wu around, I feel uncomfortable for many times, and I am a little unsure about many things."

Xie Yanwu felt that something was wrong with Tenglong Mountain, but he couldn't figure out what was wrong.

But the subordinate quietly curled his lips, thinking that of course you feel uncomfortable. Besides Master Wu, who has a treacherous look on his face, who else in our town's government office can make such a disgusting and shameless flattery?

In Ren Mansion, the sun shines on the black roof, casting a faint light.

When Tax Collector Wang led the beaten tax collector to the main hall of the house with great anger, he couldn't help but rub his eyes and suddenly saw an old man in civilian clothes sitting in the guest seat.

There was nothing surprising about an old man in civilian clothes.

But he recognized the man's identity at a glance.

"The butler of Mr. Zheng's family!"

He was secretly frightened. He had mobilized his troops and prepared to come to the door to question him. Now he rubbed his face and showed a spring-like smile. He quietly put his right hand behind his back and waved it crazily towards the man with a bruised nose and a swollen face behind him, who looked like a pig's head. Wave your hands.

"Wang heard about Mr. Ren's virtuous reputation in the county town. When he came to Qingcheng Town, he thought of visiting Mr. Ren's house. Unexpectedly, Butler Zheng was also there, and Wang was disturbing him."

The taxman under his command looked confused as he walked towards the main hall of the Ren family with a smile as bright as a spring breeze. How could he look like he was here to ask for guilt?

He smiled brightly and spoke nicely.

The pig-headed taxman showed a bitter expression and quietly hid in a corner.

"Since Mr. Ren has a guest, Mr. Zheng will not disturb you. Mr. Ren will be waiting for you in the house the next morning."

Butler Zheng stood up and said goodbye.

"Uncle Zheng, walk slowly and you will definitely keep your appointment on time."

Ren Pingsheng stood up to see him off.

Tax collector Wang also smiled along with him and went to the gate to watch Butler Zheng get into the car and leave.

After returning to the main room and taking a seat, Tax Collector Wang was still thinking about how this government could have anything to do with Mr. Zheng.

Although Zheng Gong is far away in Dongyang, his influence exceeds dozens of counties in five provinces.

However, in his hometown, he has never had much contact with outsiders.

Therefore, he was shocked when he met the housekeeper of the Zheng Mansion as a guest in the Ren Mansion.

In particular, the housekeeper of the Zheng Mansion also invited Ren Pingsheng to be a guest at the Zheng Mansion. This is definitely not a personal acquaintance of the housekeeper of the Zheng Mansion. From this point of view, the relationship between the two families appears to be extraordinary!

"Xie Yanwu is harming me!"

Tax Collector Wang hated Xie Yanwu very much in his heart, but he couldn't show it at this time. Instead, his smile became even brighter.

He said some nice words for free, and his little mouth was as sweet as honey, which made Ren Pingsheng very happy.

He himself didn't know that he was so good, and he felt a little embarrassed when he was praised.

The pig-headed taxman outside occasionally heard disgusting compliments carried by the wind, and occasionally a burst of hearty laughter.

This atmosphere made him feel that he should not be in the courtyard, but in the soil.

"Since Mr. Wang is here, let's have dinner here before leaving."

When Tax Collector Wang proposed to leave, it was already evening, and Ren Pingsheng spoke to persuade him to stay.

Tax Collector Wang waved his hands repeatedly and said: "No, no, next time, we have to rush back to the county office to pay the errand. The county magistrate is still waiting for us."

"The tax collector Wang can't come in vain. Ren must also do his best to serve as a landlord. Ruhua, bring up the gift I asked you to prepare."

Ren Pingsheng shouted Ruhua.

Soon, Ruhua walked into the house carrying a tray.

Ren Pingsheng lifted up the red silk covering it, and the light suddenly shone! The originally dark room suddenly became as bright as day!

A plate full of free money!

Moreover, the quality of the silver was surprisingly good, as if it could reflect light. The dazzling light was like a magnet, attracting the tax collector Wang's dark eyes and making him unable to move away.

That’s two hundred taels! ! ! And judging from the quality and purity, it is definitely top-grade silver, probably worth more than two hundred taels.

He spent all his energy and waved his hands with difficulty: "No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, how could Wang accept this..."

"Master Wang, just accept it."

Ren Pingsheng picked up the tray and poured the money into a cloth bag.

The dazzling light faded away, and Tax Collector Wang's rationality returned to his head a little, but his eyes could not help but glance at the cloth bag embroidered with Yin and Yang fish.

"Lord Wang, I'll tell you the truth. I heard that the county magistrate is worried about the living corpse. It just so happens that Wang also has some bodyguards, all of whom are good hands and are willing to help the county magistrate solve his problems.

The county captain also knew about this and advised me to train for the Qingcheng Town regiment, so that I could clear away the living corpses, relieve the worries of the county magistrates, relieve the people's problems, and relieve the worries of spring plowing.

Mr. Wang is the person in the pocket of the county magistrate, and the county magistrate also has great trust in you. If you are asked about this matter, please convey the truth to Mr. Wang.

If this comes to pass, Ren will still be grateful. "

Ren Pingsheng said and handed the bag in his hand to Tax Collector Wang.

After hearing this, Tax Collector Wang stretched out his hand and held a bag of silver in his hand.

Oops!

So heavy!

The heavy silver made his heart beat.
