Mingfeng County, outside the city schoolyard.

The taxi standing on the high platform of the school ground was wearing light armor and pressing the long sword around his waist. On the surface, he seemed to be watching the sergeant training below, but if you look closely, you can see that there is no focal length in his eyes. Obviously, he did not care whether these sergeants were training.

When Shizeng came to Mingfeng County, Shixie told him: "The ability of snake demons is not comparable to human power. What you need to do is not to kill snake demons, but to make an attitude of preparing for war to observe the emperor's reaction."

So, although the soldiers have been training troops for the past period of time and are posing as if they will attack Qingping County at any time, in fact, this is just a gesture, both for the people of Mingfeng County and for the emperor to see.

In normal times, Shipai will naturally pay attention to collecting information from Qingping County.

The information in Qingping County can be regarded as the easiest place to collect. None of them, it is really too simple. Not to mention sending professional spies, even if you just send an ordinary person over there, you can know the news about Qingping County by staying for a day or two.

Qingping County is completely like a sieve, with no intention of concealing it at all. It is just swaying on the open with no defense at all.

According to the news sent back, if there was no snake demon, the soldier would only dare to issue a military order. As long as he was given five hundred sharp soldiers, he would be able to pacify Qingping County within half a day. Maybe it would take half an hour, half an hour?

But there is no if in this world. In fact, there are snake monsters in Qingping County.

When the scholar only learned the specific information about the snake demon, he deeply agreed with what his father Shi Xie said. This snake demon is indeed not comparable to that of human power.

Knowing people and knowing people and things is even more powerful. If this is the case, it is not enough to be afraid. The snake demon can actually have the legendary spells. At present, there are at least four types of spells known. It would be nice if such a snake demon doesn't come to provoke people. Do you want to provoke it?

Therefore, even though Qingping County looks like a sieve on the surface and can be broken with one stab, in fact, the existence of the snake demon makes Qingping County solid, and the snake demon obviously knows this, so the snake demon has no movement. The scholar even speculated that the snake demon is actually completely fearless, but because the snake demon once said that the people of Mingfeng County are also their people, they did not take the initiative to attack.

As a family, scholars only learned some military tactics when they were very young, but the military books never mentioned how to fight a snake demon, such as soldiers without constant momentum, water without constant shape, such as speed as forest, and plunder like fire. The methods in these military books are completely nonsense. The snake demon is there, and no strategy is easy to use, because all strategies are to kill the enemy, but the key is that the snake demon seems to be unable to kill it.

"I feel that my father is really a little anxious. Facing such a snake demon, our family shouldn't be enemies with him. I just don't know what the situation of the third uncle in Qingping County, and whether there is still room for improvement in this matter."

............

The Dragon King did not know that just staying quietly in Qingping County would make the enemy feel scared and even have the idea that it would not be matched by human power.

As Tieyong came to the county town with the wine brewed, wine was also started to be brewed in the county town. However, winemaking alone cannot consume so many grapes. The raisins and daily consumption of everyone accounted for the majority.

At the beginning, when everyone heard that they could eat grapes, and they ate them casually, everyone was so happy. On the first day, many people had a bad stomach because these people were eating wildly and completely ate grapes.

After a few days of eating, everyone calmed down, and some people even didn't want to eat it anymore. After all, grapes really can't be eaten as food.

Bunches of fresh grapes were picked and dried on the dam. Conservatively, raisins could be made into tens of thousands of kilograms.

Other merchants cannot come to Qingping County, but the Jia family can. The Jia family has also become the main target of grape sales during this period. Batches of grapes were transported away by the Jia family to supply the surrounding county towns. The Dragon King felt that these grapes should also increase his reputation. If they accumulate slowly, other counties will be like Mingfeng County in the future. The Dragon King went over and shouted, and there were many followers.

"Master Dragon King, it's time to eat." Wang Yong shouted. After coming to Qingping County, he specifically took care of Master Dragon King's meals.

Tie Ling helped the Dragon King cut off the meat from the meat chop, and brushed the sauce finely, and delivered it to the Dragon King's mouth.

"What kind of meat is this?"

"Wolf Steak, the Fort Protection Team is playing today." Tie Yong replied.

"The wolf in the county has not been killed yet?"

"It's almost done. According to the Fort Protection Team, I couldn't see the wolf for several days. Today I was lucky and encountered a few heads by the forest and killed them all."

"I guess I ran to the mountains and told Tiewei and the others that even if I couldn't kill them, I would have to scare the wolves away."

"Um."

Zhang Xiaoyang was also gnawing on the meat chop, his mouth full of oil.

"By the way, Dragon King, I went to the Dragon King Palace a few days ago."

"Oh, what's wrong?"

"The peaches over there are ripe, but unfortunately they are all pecked by birds..."

"Ha, I forgot if you don't say it."

"Dragon King, you can get the luminous grapes back. Do you want to bring the peach trees here too?"

"If you want to do it, it's a bit difficult, right?"

"It's really a bit difficult to get the whole tree, but if you cut the roots and just move the stumps, it should be fine."

"Okay, but don't worry, when will you go back? Bring it here by the way."

"Um."

"Dragon King, the students have chosen some people and are ready to let these people help the students manage the county town. Please check the Dragon King."

"I won't take a look. Just make your own decision on this matter. By the way, what about Wang He? His heart disease has not been removed yet?"

"After the students' explanations over the past few days, Brother Wang seems to have a little more enlightened."

"That's good."

"Dragon King, there is something else for the student."

"explain."

"The autumn harvest will be in a few months. I wonder what the Dragon King should do this year's tax? Should I collect it or not? If I collect it, how much tax will be collected?"

Taxes? Liu Dalu pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Taxes must be collected, there is no doubt about this."

Taxation is an important source of fiscal revenue for each force, generally used for the salary and expenses of managers. Just like Quangang now, he is a management talent and cannot farm, but he also has to live. It is impossible not to eat. The role of taxation is for people like Quangang.

At the same time, taxation should also be used for infrastructure construction. For example, the ditches that Quangang called on everyone to dig are infrastructure. According to normal circumstances, managers should take out funds from taxation and hire workers to dig ditches by hiring them.

The fundamental theory of taxation is actually to take it from the people and use it for the people, to collect the people's money first, concentrate it together, and then return it to the people in some way.
