The castle is located on a small hill not far from the emperor, with beautiful scenery and beautiful surroundings, a manhole carved and winding moat around the city, and a small town outside the city, which is inhabited by about a few thousand people.

With this place, Chen Hao doesn't have to think about marrying Fan Qihei, he can make an industrial chain by himself, and those thousands of people are not joking.

"Hmm...... OK. ”

Chen Hao stood in the town with hundreds of people, looking at the scenery of the castle, followed by him in addition to the four beautiful girls, the others were housekeepers, maids and the like, these were hired with the help of Pink Cut Black and Franklin, of course, there is also the management of the Celestial Restaurant Group, and their current office is in this town.

After all, the big bosses have all come to settle here, and they don't want to come there.

The Atlas has a communication crystal ball, so there is no problem with remotely controlling the subsidiaries in the Imperial Capital and other places.

The surroundings were crowded with local people, and they were a little afraid to look at Chen Hao's eyes, because the sky was high and the emperor was far away (although it was less than ten kilometers, but out of the imperial capital, the emperor could only listen to the local officials' nonsense), in addition to the tax officials, the only ones who could control their life and death were the "lords", or the landlords here.

Besides, the bigwigs who can buy real estate here are always either rich or expensive, and the tax officials don't dare to provoke this kind of person, so who else is the real emperor except the landlord?

According to the rules, the mayor had to "offer" a batch of silver or other equivalent to welcome the new lord.

Therefore, our townspeople do not like to change landlords very much, after all, it means that they have to pay an extra amount of money.

No, the mayor has been waiting for a long time, just waiting for Chen Hao to get off the monster (tank), and then go up to pat the fart.

"My lord, as a small gift, please raise your noble hand and accept it. ”

It may not be a bag of broken silver for thirty taels - to put it mildly, Chen Hao's deduct is worth more than this.

"Excuse me. ”

Chen Hao threw the silver bag back to the mayor.

He didn't come here to scrape the ground, he just bought a house and sent it to the town, and it didn't cost a lot of money to be nice to those townspeople.

And these people are real labor, before coming Chen asked the local tax officer, there are more than 4,700 people here, more than 1,000 households, including more than 1,900 men.

More than 1,900 young and middle-aged laborers! Chen Hao's head was about to laugh crookedly.

Besides, he pit those black gauze hats and waists purely because they deserve it, but it is too much to pit the common people, and the thing of scraping the ground is so untechnical that Chen Hao feels disdainful for those ancient emperors.

The mayor looked at the silver bag in his hand and was at a loss, thinking that the landlord was unhappy because he gave too little, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

"Old man, how much tax do you pay each year?"

Chen Hao leaned on the head of the tank with a smile and asked.

"If you go back to your lordship, you will have two stone of corn per year. ”

Chen Hao had actually asked the local tax officer a long time ago, and of course this tax officer was also brought along.

This tax didn't even come to a penny, and even if Chen Hao helped them pay it all for a year, he would only have less than three hundred taels of silver.

This is not money in Chen's eyes.

"Alright, Tax Collector!"

Chen Hao called the little black gauze hat that followed him to his side, and then took out a stack of silver tickets.

"Their ten years of taxes and conscription are exempt from tax, a little bit. ”

In order to highlight the visual effect, this product also deliberately exchanged all the silver tickets for fifty taels of denominations.

The tax official already knew what he was going to do, and he also knew that Chen Hao's ticket was at a premium of 20% - this is the transfer money, usually 10%, and Chen Hao gave a little more.

But those little people who are surrounded by three circles inside and three circles outside don't know!

They thought that there was a Yama lord, but they didn't expect that it was a living bodhisattva!

Someone knelt down on the spot.

The mayor of the town was more thoughtful, he was afraid that Chen Hao would suddenly make some difficult requests.

"Your Excellency, what are you?"

"Don't worry, I don't have any other requirements, I just hope that your money bags will bulge, your life will be better, and your life will be happy. In the days to come, you don't need to pay me food, I will buy the fruits of your labor at wholesale prices, and at the same time I will arrange jobs so that everyone can eat!"

Chen Hao's face was selfless, and Ling'er was about to believe in this product.

Now the mayor of the town completely dispelled his doubts, it seems that the landlord this time is a great good man, and he actually wants to let these small people eat enough, what is this not a good person?

In this way, most of the goal of buying people's hearts was completed, and our "good man" Chen Hao came to the castle under the cheers and embrace of the people.

The tax collector had been driven back, and the executives had gone their separate ways to find a house in the town, leaving only Chen Hao and his harem, Franklin and his fiancée, and the housekeeper and maid.

The tank was parked at the gate of the city wall, like a stone lion to ward off evil spirits, staring motionlessly at the bridge that had been pulled up.

Don't ask me how the chariot came over, this thing comes with a simple bridging system, which is self-produced and sold, quite Chen Hao's style.

"You're really rich with a hammer!"

There were no outsiders here, so Franklin joked with Chen Hao.

"It's like you don't have any money. ”

Chen Hao gave him a roll of the eyes, but it was also the first time he experienced the life of a super-rich man, anyway, just looking at the scenery in the city wall made him feel like a dream.

There are mountains, rivers and rivers, lawns and garden fountains, boats in the middle of the lake, prayer rooms in the center of the lake, sculptures that are expensive at a glance, and large houses with people living in the middle and around them.

Just one word: the trench is inhumane!

The girls were dumbfounded, the fastest reaction was pink cut black, this girl has seen a little bit of the world, and the rest even Ling'er is confused, not to mention Erica and Sylvie, one middle-class and one low-level, I haven't seen this kind of place in so long.

Glancing at their expressions, Chen Hao felt very satisfied, and he had face.

"Girls, play by yourself, remember to go to the main house for dinner at noon, the butler come with me, Franklin, you will go boating by the lake with your wife!"

Chen Hao briefly explained what everyone should do, and then beckoned the half-old man who was waiting for the order on the side.

This old man's name is Adolf Stalin, and he has a bit of a skewer, but it's okay, this old man is very shrewd, and it's really like a combination of the two.

The walk from the main gate to the main house takes about a quarter of an hour, and there are several barriers in between—this is the facility used for military defense, and even if you play the CQB, you can drink a pot of alcohol.

The defenses on the walls are more complete, with heavy crossbows, mage towers, archer towers, and trebuchets.

Under normal circumstances, the city can accommodate thousands of soldiers, so don't even think about taking this small but well-equipped castle without taking tens of thousands of people.
