Zhizhou said that he was the deputy or successor of the magistrate, so he could manage everything, or nothing. This mainly depends on the attitude of the magistrate.

Maybe because song Yan avenged Su Bingwen, the other side's attitude towards him was more and more intimate. However, it still couldn't change the old problem. First, he took song Yan for an hour to talk about the article, and then talked about the business.

It can be seen that Su Bingwen does not have much attachment to power. If he changes to other prefectures, he will probably hang up his Prefecture magistrate as an idle job, but Su Bingwen actually gives him all the major and minor affairs of Liangzhou Prefecture.

This makes song inkstone a little speechless, also a little cry and laugh.

Naturally, money and power are the most attractive. Su Bingwen is neither greedy for power nor fond of silver. No wonder he will be ostracized and sent to this wasteland.

When the power came, song Yan didn't call the officials in the government, but first found some books related to Liangzhou to read.

He read very fast, but for most of the day, he read the relevant books of Liangzhou.

Liangzhou Prefecture governs three counties, one medium-sized county and two inferior counties.

The middle county is called Xifeng County, and the lower counties are called Longshan County and Fengyuan county.

Xifeng County has a population of about 100000, and Longshan County has a population of just over 50000, Fengyuan county is even smaller, with a population of only 30000.

Therefore, the population of the whole Liangzhou Prefecture is less than one million, only 600000.

Liangzhou Prefecture is a border city, bordered by black hawk, red wolf and Huhuo.

Among the three different races, the Black Hawk is the strongest, with a population of more than 3 million, followed by the red wolf, with a population of more than 2 million, and the last Huhuo has a population of more than 1 million.

Among the three barbarians, the red wolf is the most ferocious. They often come to Liangzhou to plunder. Because the Black Hawk cultivates their own land, they are not aggressive, but they have to go out for the last time every year.

It's the Huhuo. They live in the forest and are very good at taming beasts. They often drive the beasts to fight. Therefore, even the red wolf and black eagle dare not provoke them at will.

However, the Huhuo seldom attacked them. Only three years ago, a traitor bullied the Huhuo people, which led the other party to surround the city with animal soldiers. At last, Su Bingwen sent someone to catch the traitor and give it to the Huhuo people to calm their anger.

Therefore, among the three ethnic groups, the red wolf group has the greatest threat to Liangzhou Prefecture, followed by the Black Hawk group, and the Huhuo group has almost no threat.

Unconsciously, it's just a few days.

These days, song Yan has summoned officials of all sizes in the government, and has also learned about the tax revenue and the state of the Treasury this year.

To song Yan's surprise, more than six Chengdu taxes have not been collected this year. As for the empty warehouses, almost all of them can run away. In short, the execution of Liangzhou government is poor and poor.

According to his knowledge, the government officials have not been paid for more than half a year.

It has to be said that Su Bingwen is too fatuous as an official, but if you think about it, you can't give any right to a new Zhizhou. Only Su Bingwen can do it.

Because they didn't get the salary, all the officials in the Yamen seemed powerless.

It's just that before Song Yan can sort out these things, Xu Xing sent his deputy to the Yamen to ask song Yan for military expenses.

Not bad.

The military expenditure of the town should be in the charge of the magistrate's Yamen. Besides food and grass, 15000 liang of silver should be given every year.

But now yamen can't even pay the salaries of its own officials. Where can they afford military expenses.

"Lord song, if you don't pay for the military, you won't leave!" Wu Jingwei's posture is that if you don't give me money, I won't leave.

"It doesn't matter. Although the magistrate's Yamen is poor, several meals are still available!"

Song inkstone is light.

"You!"

Wu Jingwei is very proud of it.

"Come, please invite deputy general Wu to the wing room and serve him with tea. I have to work!" Two yamen servants came in: "general Wu, please!"

"You are so powerful, Lord song. I'll leave today and come back another day!" Wu Jingwei left with a melancholy sentence.

Then.

Song Yan combed the tax books and found many old taxes, and dozens of big tax payers, who owed more than 200000 Jin of grain and 30000 liang of tax money.

As for the tax grain owed by ordinary people, it is only tens of thousands Jin, and the tax money is also 56000 Liang.

In addition, the three counties have not paid all the official taxes for many years. They owe more than 400000 Jin of official grain and 60000 liang of official silver.

"Ah!"

Song Yan once again sighed that Su Bingwen was too stupid to be an official. It's no wonder that the Yamen was so broken. It's not that he didn't want to repair it, but that he couldn't get the money to repair it.

Therefore, song Yan called the officials to understand the situation of these dozens of large tax payers.

Only then did we know that these big tax payers are all squatters in Liangzhou, each of them has built fortresses, and there are private soldiers in them.With less than a hundred yamen servants, there's no way for those guys.

As for the officials who collect taxes, even if they can't enter the gate of the fortress, they also collect fart taxes.

In fact, Su Bingwen can ask Xu Xing for help, but the relationship between them is quite rigid. So, after so many years, they are allowed to evade taxes and evade taxes. The magistrate's Yamen can't help them.

Today's magistrate yamen can't make ends meet. If these taxes can't be collected, the whole yamen can't operate.

Therefore, the most important thing at present is to collect the taxes of those large households.

As long as big families are willing to pay taxes, those ordinary people have no reason not to pay them.

"Do you have any way to collect the taxes of these large households?"

Song Yan looked at the dozens of officials and asked.

As soon as his voice fell, the officials began to pour out their bitterness.

Some said they couldn't get into the door at all;

some said they were beaten back halfway;

others said that the other side not only didn't open the door, but also shouted insults at them.

When they had finished, song Yancai continued: "we all know what's going on in the Yamen. If this tax can't be collected, I'm afraid that everyone's salaries will not be distributed. Seeing the coming of the new year, we can only drink from the West and the north. Therefore, I have a proposal here. Each of you can collect taxes from those big families, no matter who receives the tax grain, or You can take one percent of the tax money, so you can have a fat year. "

Hearing this, all the officials were shocked in their hearts. Immediately, some people began to move their minds.

If they can receive ten thousand catties of grain, they will not have one hundred catties. If they can receive one thousand liang of silver, they will also receive ten Liang.

But soon, they put out the idea that the taxes of land tigers are so easy to collect.

Don't give them a percentage, even if they can't do a tenth, so they start to cry again.

Some people quarreled with song Yanfa about his salary, claiming that his family could not open the pot.

Seeing the behavior of these officials, song Yan felt disappointed. He really had no useful talent.
