Chapter 27

Xiaoyao Teahouse.

An officer and soldier came to Xiaoyao Teahouse with two of his men.

There were quite a few guests drinking tea in the teahouse, but when they saw three officers and soldiers coming in from outside, they all ran away in fear.

"Who is the boss? Come here." The leading officer said loudly.

When the proprietress Shi Youyao saw the three officers and soldiers, she didn't know what they were doing, and she was beating a drum in her heart.

"I am," Shi Youyao hurriedly walked over with a smile on his face, "I wonder what the three military masters are doing here. Do you want to drink tea?"

"Let me ask you, who asked you to open a teahouse here? Has it been approved by our government? Has it been filed? Has it paid taxes?" The leading officer asked her several questions in succession.

Shi Youyao saw the speaker. He was wearing the official uniform of a Qing Dynasty officer and an official hat. He had a long knife on the left side of his waist and a spear on the right side. His face was full of flesh, he had a beard, and he had a loud voice.

"Not yet." Seeing his momentum, Shi Youyao guessed that he was a boss and felt a little scared.

"No? Then why are you open for business when you haven't completed the formalities? It's really unreasonable!" The officer said, "My name is Huang Shiyi, and I am in charge of this street. To open a store and do business, you must get our approval. The procedures are all in place.

, you can open your business, and you have to pay taxes. These are the most basic common sense, don’t you understand?”

"Master Huang, I'm really sorry. I didn't know there were these rules. We'll make up for the relevant procedures later. Do you think that's okay?"

"Complement later? Then you are breaking the rules. If everyone is like you, killing first and reporting later, wouldn't it be a mess?" Huang Shiyi said, "Well, your attitude is pretty good. I'm sorry it's your first offender.

Pay the fine first, then the tax.”

"I wonder how much the fine is? How much is the tax?" Shi Youyao asked.

"The fine is two hundred taels of silver and the tax is one thousand taels." Huang Shiyi said.

"Ah? You want so much!" When Shi Youyao heard this, he was so frightened that he slumped down on his chair, "I am a small shop with a small profit. Even if I am busy all year round, I will not be able to earn so much money.

ah."

"What! Is this still a lot?" Huang Shiyi said, "Who are you fooling? Do you think I don't know the market? Do you think I don't know your tea is a huge profit? After you brew the tea you bought with one tael of silver,

They all sell for ten taels and twenty taels. If calculated according to this, the fines and taxes we collect would have to be doubled to be reasonable."

"Master Huang, in these days of war and chaos, how many people come to drink tea? It's just to earn a small amount of money and barely survive. How can there be such a big profit? I just sold this teahouse at a discount.

I can’t make up this number.”

"Really?" Huang Shiyi rolled his eyes at her and said with a lewd smile, "If you really think this number is a bit too much, I have a way to reduce it by half. I wonder if you are willing?"

"What can I do?" Shi Youyao asked timidly.

"I think you look pretty good. As long as you sleep with me for two nights and serve me comfortably, that's all." Huang Shiyi stared at her, wishing to look into her flesh, and said with a lewd smile: "I don't know what you mean.

How about next?"

"You!" Shi Youyao pointed at him, trembling with anger and speechless.

"Why, you don't want to?" Huang Shiyi said, "I heard that your man is a sick man, not to mention extremely ugly, and he is probably a useless person. If you stay a widow with him, you might as well live happily with me."

"You gangster!" Shi Youyao never cursed anyone, and he couldn't control his emotions at this time.

At this moment, there was a crisp "pop!" sound, and Shi Youyao received a heavy slap on the left side of his face, which immediately caused him to become swollen.

Shi Youyao covered her face, looked up and saw that the person who hit her was none other than her man, Wang Guanqiao.

I don't know who came to the gambling den and told Tai Sui that something happened in the teahouse. Wang Guanqiao hurried back after hearing this.

"You bitch! How could you insult the military master like this? You are so audacious and lawless. Let's see if I don't beat you to death today!" Bing Taisui said, raising his hand and wanting to hit her.

A female store clerk came over and stopped her.

Shi Youyao looked at her man in confusion, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Who are you?" Huang Shiyi saw a thin old man coming in front of him, with a hunched back, a yellow face and a thin face, and he kept coughing. What is strange is that his head looks like that of ordinary people.

It's different, it's flat, but the face is oval, pointed at both ends, wide in the middle, with a double mustache under the rosy nose.

"I am Wang Guanqiao, who is sick Tai Sui. This woman is a bitch. I have offended you just now. I hope you can forgive me." After saying that, sick Tai Sui knelt down to Huang Shiyi with a plop, "She is not sensible.

Mr. Wang Junye has a lot of things. You don’t remember the faults of villains, so don’t get along with her."

Huang Shiyi stared at Wang Guanqiao for a long time. He was a little surprised at first, and then said with a smile: "It's really a flower stuck in cow dung! I really can't understand how a big girl who is as beautiful as a flower can be like this."

I found a monster like you."

"Master, you are right, I am just that cow dung, I look a bit shabby," Bing Taisui said with a dry smile, "Master, please be kind and show mercy. The fines and taxes are too much, we really have to bear it."

I'm sorry."

"Wang Guanqiao, we act impartially. Everything else is easy to say, but the fine of two hundred taels and the tax of one thousand taels of silver are indispensable. These must be turned over to the government," Huang Shiyi said,

"I'll give you ten days. You can collect the money and hand it over. If you can't collect it, I'm sorry, but your teahouse will no longer be open for business."

After saying that, Huang Shiyi left with his two men.

"No wonder people say that women are a disaster. It's true! You said that if you don't do your job well all day long, you'll just cause trouble for me!" The sick Tai Sui began to criticize his woman again, "Come on, Lord Jun!"

It's just a joke. If you get a little advantage, just let him get it. I don't think anyone has done anything about it, so why do you need to open your mouth and curse people? Don't you even know how to speak human words? "

When Shi Youyao heard this, he was so angry that he lay on the table and cried.

"Cousin, what you said is wrong! Does it mean that you have to wait until someone takes off your sister-in-law's clothes to be considered rude?" At this time, the female clerk couldn't stand listening and stood up to speak.

Her name is Lin Qingyu, a cousin who is sick in Tai Sui. "As a man, your own woman has been bullied by outsiders. Not only can you not protect her, but in turn you beat her and scold her. What kind of man are you? Then Huang Shiyi is a

How can you pay such high fines and so many taxes to scoundrels who want to extort money and take advantage of others? If you don't argue with them, you will only act mischievously at home."

"No wonder people say that women have long hair and short knowledge. Today, it turns out that it is indeed true," Bing Taisui pointed at the two of them and said, "You women are really ignorant. Haven't you heard that fighting against the sky and fighting against the sky is not true?"

Do you mean you can't fight with the officials in the land fight? If you offend the officials, what's the benefit? Is this teahouse still in business? Do you all want to lose your job?"

"It doesn't matter whether I'm unemployed or not, my salary is just a few taels of silver a year," Lin Qingyu sneered, "Then you just kowtowed to others, so what? Did they promise you to collect less money?"

"If this bitch hadn't scolded me, I would have charged less."

"Come on, cousin, what are you going to do next?"
