Dongjun is located in the north of Yanzhou, bordering Weijun in Jizhou.
The administrative seat of Dongjun is in Puyang County. Today's Dongjun is quite prosperous and business is very prosperous. The reason is very simple. After the train was connected to Qi State, there was a huge demand for coal mines.
Especially trains, a mechanized product, handle a large amount of coal every day. Together with the rest of the industries, which are now beginning to mechanize, a large number of coal mines are needed.
So coal mines have become a pillar industry.
Puyang County is rich in coal mines, rich in mineral deposits, and even open-pit coal mines. This is the reason for the prosperity of Puyang County.
The economy of Puyang County is very prosperous.
It is true that Dongjun also prospered because of the coal mines in Puyang County.
Yang Xiong, the governor of Dongjun, also has considerable political achievements in Yanzhou because of the prosperous business in Dongjun and the ability to pay a large amount of taxes. After all, a large number of businesses are generated and a large amount of taxes are paid to the state.
Taxation also represents political achievements. However, Dongjun's prosperity is superficial. Because economic development has not benefited the local people, except for food and clothing, their lives are actually not very easy.
That is to say, they live on sweet potatoes, corn, and other grains. Anyway, they will not die of hunger.
There are only the most basic guarantees.
There are more others, but there are none.
In the main hall of the Beicheng Prefecture in Puyang County.
Singing and dancing continued, and even more melodious sounds were played, echoing in the hall.
Yang Xiong was wearing a thin Shu brocade robe, sitting casually on the main seat, with two charming women waiting beside him. The weather in April and May was quite warm during the day. The woman was not wearing much clothing, and her thinness highlighted her figure. Even the secret parts of her body were looming, making people feel a little uneasy.
The singer in the hall dances gracefully.
On both sides of the hall are a group of businessmen, all of whom are big businessmen from East County. These people are all relying on Yang Xiong to live their lives.
Yang Xiong was extremely heroic. He picked up the wine bottle and exchanged glasses with the others in a very lively manner.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, the atmosphere was in full swing.
Yang Xiong waved his hand, and all the singers in the hall retreated. Everyone also put down the wine bottles in their hands in a tacit understanding, knowing that something was coming.
Yang Xiong sat up straight and stopped teasing the singer sitting next to him. He looked around at everyone, with a very serious expression on his face, and said slowly: "Everyone, it is already the end of April and May is about to enter. This year, several months have passed. This month's taxes should be collected again. I hope Can you please give me more support?¡±
Among the businessmen below, the leader is named Wang Changxi. He is a large businessman who has a stake in the coal mine. He is also the leader of the gang in Puyang County. He is a partner with Yang Xiong and is also a person who specializes in coal mines.
Wang Changxi had a smile on his face and said with a smile: "Prefect Yang, all taxes due will be paid truthfully according to the old rules, and there will be no deductions. Please rest assured, Grand Administrator."
"Yes, yes, sir, please rest assured."
"When we work under the rule of the Grand Administrator, we will abide by the rules and laws, and we will not exceed any limits."
"Please don't worry, sir."
Businessmen one after another expressed their opinions.
Everyone¡¯s attitude is the same, they are all supportive.
After all, paying taxes has to be done.
¡°Otherwise, Yang Xiong will not be able to pass this level.
When Yang Xiong heard everyone's words, they all nodded. With a smile on his face, he stroked the beard under his chin and said slowly: "Everyone, if you are paying taxes normally, I won't say anything. What should I do?" Just do whatever you want.¡±
"It's just that the situation in Yanzhou has changed at the moment. The state pastor of Yanzhou, Lord Ling Jiuxiao, is preparing to retire because of illness. According to the news, Lord Ling will assess the officials from the following counties and select suitable people to recommend to the imperial court. Please consider it at the court¡¯s discretion.¡±
"After all, the imperial court still has to consider the recommendation of Yanzhou's state pastor. And to govern Yanzhou, it is most appropriate to select from grassroots officials below Yanzhou."
"I have quite a lot of political achievements in Yanzhou, and there is still some hope. But to take over this position, I need more outstanding political achievements. And what does the official's political achievements come from? It comes from taxation."
"This time, I sincerely ask you all to help me."
Yang Xiong flicked his sleeves, shook his sleeves and robe and said: "As long as I accomplish the task, I will not treat you badly afterwards. This is my promise, please help me."
Wow! !
In the hall, there was a discussion immediately, and everyone was talking about it.
Everyone understood Yang Xiong¡¯s intentions.
It also became clear what Yang Xiong was thinking.
This is to allow them to give more taxes and achieve a beautiful political performance. Of course, according to Yang Xiong's greedy nature, Yang Xiong would definitely withhold part of the taxes they handed over secretly as his own.
Wang Changxi said in a deep voice: "If Governor Yang can go further, we will go all out to support it. Doubling the tax on our Lingshan mine this month will be regarded as doubling this month's production. Everything will be done." It¡¯s to support adults.¡±
¡°I also doubled my taxes.¡±
"Me, too."
¡°Here, too, I¡¯m doubling my taxes and doing my best to support you.¡±
Businessmen one after another expressed their opinions.
Everyone supports Yang Xiong.
Faced with such a situation, Yang Xiong also showed a smile of approval on his face, very satisfied with everyone's answers.
He stroked the beard under his chin and said with a smile: "You all have a sincere heart. I would like to express my gratitude here. As long as I can take a step further, I will live up to you in the future. Again, if you have money, let's make money together. Blessed, let¡¯s enjoy it together.¡±
Wang Changxi gave a thumbs up and praised: "Mr. Yang, you are so righteous. You are my good parents in Dongjun. No, you are my good parents in Yanzhou."
As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately praised him.
Everyone admires them.
The expressions on everyone¡¯s faces were filled with joy and expectations for the future. Once Yang Xiong becomes Yanzhou Shepherd, they will definitely get many benefits, and it will be easier to make money in business.
Businessmen make too little money by doing business through ordinary means, so they hope to go through the back door and have Yang Xiong take care of them, which will be easier.
"Report!"
At this moment, an attendant hurriedly entered.
When Yang Xiong saw this, he immediately frowned and scolded: "Why are you panicking? How can you look like you are panicking?"
The attendant said: "Sir, a group of people came outside Puyang County. When we were at the gate of the city, our people asked about their identity. The other party said that the Intelligence Bureau was handling the case, and they barged in directly. They couldn't stop them at all."
Yang Xiong snorted and scolded: "The Intelligence Bureau is responsible for thoroughly investigating state secrets, and it has nothing to do with us. They want to investigate, so why do you care about this? As long as it is not the action of the Supervision Department, there is no need to care about anything."
The attendant said: "Your Excellency is wise."
"Report!"
At this moment, another attendant came in hurriedly, shouting: "Sir, something serious has happened."
Yang Xiong looked gloomy and said, "What's the matter?"
The attendant said: "The people from the Intelligence Bureau arrived outside the prefect's mansion and directly surrounded the prefect's mansion."
Boom! !
Yang Xiong¡¯s mind exploded.
I was completely confused.
how come?
How could people from the Intelligence Bureau surround the Prefect¡¯s Mansion?
You must know that the Intelligence Bureau is responsible for information related to national affairs, mainly external spying information. When it comes to the supervision of officials, it is the responsibility of the Supervision Department.
Why would someone from the Intelligence Bureau come?
Yang Xiong recovered and looked around at the people in the hall. Seeing people talking in a panic, he immediately scolded: "Why are you panicking? We don't have any problems. What are you afraid of? Now, it is most likely just an interrogation. Call me all." Be alert and don¡¯t make any mistakes.¡±
Yang Xiong stood up, with sharp eyes, and said: "Since the people from the Intelligence Bureau are here, let's go meet the people from the Intelligence Bureau. Let's see, what are the people from the Intelligence Bureau doing?"
When everyone heard this, they felt a little relieved.
The crowd all followed Yang Xiong and went outside the hall together. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
