"What's it about?"
They couldn't understand anything, so they just gathered together and talked about it.
"Your Majesty wrote it? Or did the little immortal write it?"
"Sir—"
A guard who was posting the notice bowed and said, "Don't worry, fellow villagers. Once my brothers and I have posted it, we will tell you."
They were very polite, which stunned the exiled people.
In the past, these officials carrying big swords were all ferocious and greedy.
When collecting taxes, these cruel officials will also have to take a share of the blame.
It's really painful.
But why are these people from Dazhao who are wearing big swords not different at all?
Not only are the people different, but even the roads are very clean.
Is it because of the little god?
Yes, it must be because of the little god.
When everyone was excited, another noise was heard.
Flattery is expensive, so ox carts are more commonly used nowadays.
Yue Tangning and Yan Lingxun (Princess Wanning, the one who practiced Taoism) were driving an ox cart. Seeing the large crowd here, they simply jumped off the cart.
"The prince is recruiting workers, both men and women, anyone with the strength can apply. Those who are accepted can take their food and leave on the spot, waiting for the start of work!"
Xie Ruyi was holding up a trumpet-shaped object, and the sound was deafening.
When the guards saw them, they stopped and said, "Greetings, Princess, and Lady Yue."
The crowd was in an uproar. Princess?
The emperor's biological sister?
Hundreds of eyes suddenly glued to him. Yan Lingxun was used to it and waved his hand: "No need to be polite. I'm just here to recruit workers today."
Yue Tangning also nodded, and then he set up tables and chairs and started recruiting workers.
The two of them were walking back and forth, busy as a whirlwind.
The crowd of people were stunned.
They looked at the notice, then looked at Yan Lingxun, somewhat hesitant.
These are all things that the little god wants to say, which one should I listen to?
"Dad, you go and recruit workers, and I'll go and post the notice!" Sang Ji looked around and made a quick decision.
The first person to do this is always conspicuous. Yan Lingxun glanced at Sang Ji and said to Yue Tangning, "You are quite smart. You have said it obediently. You can recruit any child! As long as they are twelve years old or above."
Yue Tangning rolled his eyes and said, "Be good, be good. Who told you to let the little fairy behave well?"
The prince’s aunt is amazing.
She came to do the good job as soon as she said she would.
What did Ruyi say? Oh, the damned relatives!
Once they move, other people will move too. If they can't make decisions on their own, it's easy for them to learn from others.
The little gods will not harm them, the thick Laba porridge, the soft buns, and the fragrant meat.
Your Highness must live long, long, long, long live His Highness.
With this in mind, everyone split into two groups.
"By the Will of Heaven, the Emperor declares, 'Now, the people shall enter our Great Zhao, without distinction... The Crown Prince Yu, benevolent and virtuous, loves the people, and all taxes in the world shall be collected from the Great Zhao.
The tax rate is calculated based on the amount of land used. For the first year, no tax is levied, and grain can be borrowed for planting. For the second year, the tax rate is 50%, for the third year, 40%, and for the fourth year, 30%.
The tax rate will be one in thirty, and there will be no further increase! All nations under heaven should follow this, without error.
I hereby order you."
The noisy place suddenly became quiet, and the people's mouths opened and closed like fish dying of thirst.
There was complete silence.
Some people poked their ears, some rubbed their eyes, and some slapped themselves.
No one could believe that such a good thing could happen.
It's more believable than pie falling from the sky!
"Sir, you can't say that." The learned man stared with his eyes wide open, and it took him a long time to utter these words.
Yes, in such a cannibalistic world, people are not treated as human beings.
A world where massacres are common.
The people just dared to believe that someone was teasing them.
Why is it that even though the little fat boy’s reputation for kindness has spread throughout the world, there are still many people who doubt him again and again?
Because the people have become numb and accustomed to it.
Accustomed to the government's bottomless demands and accustomed to being oppressed.
Is it possible to ask someone who has never seen the sea to describe its vastness?
It was not until they arrived at Dazhao that they realized that this place seemed to be the paradise that monks often talked about...
(By the way, everyone should learn more about history. The people really suffered a lot. If the author could travel back in time, he would immediately hang himself...)
After hearing this, several guards waved their hands, their faces flushed. "The imperial edict is our witness. We dare not lie!"
Seeing that the expressions on their faces did not seem fake, a group of people in the crowd suddenly fell down.
But no crying was heard.
Everyone's eyes were red and they kept wiping away tears.
It turns out that there really is an emperor who treats us ordinary people as human beings.
"Don't just stand there, fellow villagers. Taxes are taxes. We are also recruiting workers here. You can take away the grain if you like." Yue Tangning shouted unrestrainedly, attracting the crowd.
After such a sudden huge impact, the fainted person actually woke up again.
They rushed towards Yue Tangning and Yan Lingxun, waving their arms.
"Girl, is my son okay?"
“How old are you?”
"Thirteen."
“Take it away!”
"Girl, can I?"
Yan Lingxun glanced at the timid woman and thought, "Hmm, her fingers are rough."
After doing a lot of work, you can tell he is very skillful.
"Take it away!"
When everyone saw this, regardless of gender or age, they all shouted frantically: "Woman, look at my daughter, she's six years old! She can work, give her a bite to eat!"
