Zhao Hanzhang turned her head to look at them, "County Magistrate Fan has died in battle, and the household registrations were lost; this is your one chance to be reallocated land."
An old man couldn’t help but ask, "And the taxes..."
Zhao Hanzhang replied, "Xiping has been through such a calamity, and we’re still pleading with the court for relief grain, so where would we have tax grain to turn in?"
Zhao Hanzhang made the decision directly, "All tax grain for this autumn is exempted."
Joy erupted in the eyes of the people; even those who had handed over treasures no longer felt uneasy and embraced each other joyously.
Zhao Ju had his troops collect all the valuables on the ground and followed Zhao Hanzhang away.
The youths were in a daze watching, then quickly caught up to Zhao Hanzhang and said, "Miss, they haven’t all turned in their finds; I know there are several families who picked up pearls and gold pieces."
"Really? That’s quite unfortunate," Zhao Hanzhang replied casually, stopping to look back at him, "What’s your name?"
