Chapter 12

Liu Xiao's words made Li forget his worries and was stunned. He didn't quite understand what he meant.

Seeing Li's puzzled face, Liu Xiao patiently explained, "today you fell out with Li's clan? They expelled your family from the genealogy?"

"It's true." Li forgot to worry and replied honestly.

"Hey, Xiao Lang, you are confused!" Liu Xiao glared at him angrily, "how can you agree that they abolish your family tree?"

"Master Liu, it's not that I want to leave the clan. They've gone too far! They humiliate my adults wantonly. How can I sit back and ignore me as a child?" Li forgets worry and doesn't think it's a big deal.

"Xiao Lang, do you know that after you are expelled from the clan, you will not be a royal clan?" Liu Xiao shook his head and sighed.

"What's wrong with this?" Li forgot to worry. He didn't value the name of Li Tang clan.

"Confused! If you are not a royal family, you need to serve corvee, you know?"

Liu Xiao's words made Li forget worry and immediately stunned. Did he serve corvee?

He never thought about it. After a little thought, he suddenly realized it. NIMA, it's true!

In the early Tang Dynasty, the tax was rent and mediocre, which was a tax and servitude system based on the equal field system.

Every year, 2 stones of millet are exported to the state for rent; Silk conveying 2 Zhang and cotton 3 Liang are adjustable; Serving for 20 days is called regular service. Those who do not serve receive 3 feet of silk every day, which is mediocre.

Li forgot to worry that he didn't have to serve corvee because of his clan identity, but after he was removed from the clan, he became an ordinary household and needed to serve corvee.

If you don't serve, you need Na silk to offset.

Before Li forgot to worry about digesting the bad news, Liu Xiao continued: "There is also the public money borrowed by your family. It was originally for the sake of the royal family. In addition, there are hundreds of acres of fertile land in your family, so Yang Ming's house is not in a hurry to urge you to pay back the money. However, after learning that you have been removed from the clan, the hundred acres of fertile land will also be transferred to Li's clan, Yang Ming's house ordered that the guards will come to your house tomorrow to collect the arrears and pay off the debts."

Yang Ming's house in Liu Xiao's mouth is Yang Zuan, the county magistrate of Hu County. Ming's house is the respectful name of the county magistrate in the Tang Dynasty.

"I'll pay you back tomorrow? Where can I pay you back?" Li forgets to worry.

I'm poor now. Li Heng said that the remaining money in the house is only seven or eight times. Even the food expenses of slaves and maidservants in the house are almost insufficient. Isn't it a dream to ask myself to pay back?

"Xiao Lang forgot the slaves in the house?"

"Maidservant?" Li forgot to worry and was stunned. Then he stood up: "Master Liu, what does Yang Mingfu mean is to take my maidservant of the Li family to pay off the debt?"

There are still 23 slaves and maidservants in Li's house. Slaves and maidservants are private property. In fact, this is not a small wealth.

Datang slaves do not set up registered residence, no personal freedom and any rights, they are regarded as livestock and property, the legal status is far lower than the farmers, and the status of slaves will be passed down from generation to generation.

Slaves and maidservants in the Tang Dynasty can be bought and sold at will. Beautiful maidservants can be bought for hundreds of thousands or even millions of money. They can be bought for two or three years for old and sick.

On average, these slaves in Li's house can be worth about forty or fifty thousand yuan per person, and the slaves in Li's house can almost offset about one million debts.

Therefore, after learning that Li forgets you was removed from the clan, Yang Ming's house is worried and angry. Tomorrow, he is ready to let the servants come to the door and forcibly take away the slaves of Li's house and resell them to offset his debts.

Li forgot to worry. If so, the old housekeeper Li Heng and the little servant girl Peilan will be taken away by the county government and sold again.

He burst into a cold sweat again.

Li Heng had been asked to give Su Changqing a naturalization test. If it weren't for many things today, Su Changqing might have become a maid of the Li family and would be sold at once.

Li forgot to worry for a moment, his head was in a mess, and he didn't know what to say.

Casually thanked Liu Xiao who came all night to tell him about it and hurried back to the inner room.

In the inner study, Su Changqing was looking at the books on the bookshelf under the dim oil lamp. Seeing Li forgetful and dejected, he hurriedly asked him what had happened.

Li forgot his worries and sat down, telling the whole story about the visit of the county government secretary.

"Changqing, what should I do now?" Li forgets worry. I can't imagine the scene that the little servant girl Peilan was taken away and sold again.

In case of meeting a master who is inferior to a pig or dog, I'm afraid the little girl will live worse than death! In Datang, slaves and maidservants have no human rights at all.

How can I push such a lovely little girl into the fire pit with my own hands?

Li forgets worry and feels like Yang Bailao now. He has a sad feeling that he wants to take Xi'er to pay off his debt.

There are other slaves and maidservants in the house. Li forgets to worry. From the bottom of his heart, he feels disgusted and resistant to taking people as commodities. Even if he needs to pay back the money, he doesn't want to take these slaves and maidservants to pay off his debts.

Li Qieyou is not a moral guardian. He will enjoy the service of slaves and maids. Even when he first crossed, he bought a gorgeous Persian female slave to warm his bed at home.

But he was very contradictory. He personally sold these poor people as commodities. Li forget worry couldn't do it, let alone pay off his debts.

"This..." Su Changqing was at a loss about the dilemma Li forgets to worry about now. Even if she is smart and proficient in business operation, she is not an immortal. She can't change her money, and she doesn't know how to face the current situation in Datang.

They were silent. In the study, they could hear the light sound of oil lamps exploding from time to time.

For a long time, Li forgot to worry and suddenly took several cases: "I took the debt alone, and I won't give any slaves in the house! I'll release them all overnight tonight!"

Release good, that is, release free.

It is good for the Tang Dynasty to allow private slaves to be released. After the master of the slave's house gives a calligraphy, he can remove the attachment and release the slave from being a lover.

After Li Zhou's death, Li Qieyou is now the owner of Li's house. As long as he wrote the letter of exemption, these slaves of the Li family could break away from slavery and become lovers again.

"Forget your worries, do you think about it? It's easy for you to let go of your slaves, but if people from the county government can't get them tomorrow, you'll be in trouble." Su Changqing asked, staring into Li forget your eyes.

"Changqing, I've thought about it. I'll carry the debt on my own!" said Li, who cut the gold and iron, but made Su Changqing crazy.

"As long as you decide, I will support you." Su Changqing flashed a brilliant light in her beautiful eyes. At this moment, she found that Li forgetful worry was so manly.

Li forgot to worry about nodding, sat back a few cases, and began to pick up his pen to write the release and exemption documents. Su Changqing helped him grind, but from time to time he looked up at the boy who was writing carefully.

Under the flickering light of the oil lamp, Li QIAOYOU's side face was as beautiful as sculpture, which made Su Changqing's face slightly red.

Outside, the watchman's banging sound came. The night was deep and people were not asleep
