Chapter 1328: Target, Yingzhou Island
"Yes!"
The old man said: "But I am at the same level as the main city guards, please think carefully before beating me......"
Wang Yu: "......"
Grandma's, this old man is a pure hob meat, soft and hard, and I don't know what the game planners have experienced, so they designed the old man to look so shameless.
Just when Wang Yu and the old man butler were talking nonsense, Wuji suddenly asked out loud: "The pirates have occupied the harbor city for all these years, and the harbor city also has taxes." ”
"Huh?" Hearing Wuji's words, the old housekeeper's eyebrows raised slightly, his eyes suddenly became solemn, and then he stared at Wuji and said, "Not bad!" ”
"Huh!" Wuji smiled faintly, took out a bag of gold coins and said, "Then can you tell me who collected this tax?" ”
"Haha!"
The old man of the housekeeper laughed, took the money bag in Wuji's hand and said, "What a smart child." ”
After speaking, he didn't forget to despise Wang Yu and said, "It's like you, you still want to do it with me." ”
"Uh......" Wang Yu's despised old face turned red.
At this time, the old butler said slowly: "That's right, Harbour City has always had taxes all these years. ”
"A bunch of pirates still pay taxes?"
Hearing the old man of the housekeeper say this, everyone in the Quanzhen Sect was dumbfounded.
You said that if the legal city pays taxes, it is reasonable, and this group of pirates is just thieves who rob houses and houses, why are they so formal.
"Of course pirates don't want to pay taxes!" The old butler said: "But they just occupy Harbour City, and the city lord of Harbour City is not them, so they naturally have to pay taxes according to the rules." ”
"Oh...... I see! ”
When the old man said this, Wang Yu suddenly realized: "According to what you say, the seal of the city lord of Harbor City is on the person who collects taxes?" ”
Taxation, that is the right of the lord of the city, and only those who have the seal of the lord of the city are entitled to this right.
The old man in charge just said that there was no seal, and he didn't say who didn't...... It's still a bit difficult to fool Mowgli in this kind of word game of stealing concepts, after all, Mowgli is also an expert in this way.
"Not bad!"
Sure enough, the old butler nodded and said: "Three hundred years ago, Harbour City was attacked by pirates, and Karl, the former lord of Harbour City, left all the people of the city and fled alone with the seal of the city lord, and his whereabouts are still unknown. ”
"Missing?" Ming Du smiled on the side: "The whereabouts are unknown and you still pay taxes?" I'm afraid it's not being swallowed by you, an old man. ”
"If only that were the case!"
The old man in charge complained: "According to the system, the tax will be forcibly transferred to the account of the holder of the city lord's seal every month, and our public servants in Harbour City all live by the tax, and I pity my old handful of wages that have been owed for hundreds of years." ”
"Tut-tut"
Hearing the words of the old man in charge, Wang Yu couldn't help but sigh.
The setting of the system god is the rules, and the NPCs, as the natives in the game, have to abide by the rules, and they can't imagine that such a thing as wage arrears can happen in the game, which is hundreds of years.
Hundreds of years, meow, this old thing is really alive.
However, since ancient times, there has been no good end to those who have been in arrears of wages, thinking that Principal Jiang was in arrears of Taizu's salary, and in the end, even the world was robbed by Taizu, this is a vivid example.
It's no wonder that the pirates have been entrenched here for years, and the residents of Harbour City have not resisted......
"Young city lord." The old man of the housekeeper pleaded, "Can you help me get justice?" ”
System prompt: You triggered the third stage of the hidden main city quest "Dangerous Wall" "Lost City Lord Seal" quest Tier A, do you accept it?
"This ......"
Most of the tasks in the early stage of "Rebirth" are mainly battles, and the later they go, the more strange the mission mode becomes, especially the finding task, to be honest, Wang Yu himself is very disgusted with this kind of task.
Combat missions, at Wang Yu's level, no matter how difficult the task is, it is not a problem, but you can find something...... It's a bit of a pain.
The previous city lord of the pit father has been missing for three hundred years, not to mention the size of the world, how difficult it is to find a person who has been silent for three hundred years in the vast sea of people, and even if he finds it, he doesn't know how long it has been cold.
But Wang Yu also knows what the first two rings of this task are like, and he has to take this broken task if he doesn't take it, otherwise he may be pitted into something.
"Hey!"
Wang Yu sighed and picked it up casually.
System Prompt: You have accepted Tier A of the Hidden City Lord Quest "Dangerous Wall" Phase 3 "Lost City Lord Seal".
Quest requirements: Retrieve the seal of the city lord and repay the salary of the city master's family.
Tips: This task is difficult, please gather your companions to go together, the team is limited to 15 people.
Looking at the content of the task, Wang Yu asked the old man of the housekeeper speechlessly: "This world is so big, you don't plan to let me go through it, do you have any clues to hear, this is not only my business, but also your salary." ”
"Huh!" The old man of the housekeeper smiled faintly: "I heard from the pirates a month ago that I seem to have seen the city lord of Carl on Yingzhou Island, you can go there first." ”
"Yingzhou Island?" Wang Yu frowned and asked, "Where is that?" ”
"It's the Seventeenth District of the Brave Continent!" Wuji said on the side: "That is, the legendary Japanese service!" ”
"Wafu?"
Wang Yu was a little surprised: "Do you have to cross servers to do a task?" ”
"Hmm!" Wuji said firmly: "If I'm not mistaken, this task chain is the task chain that opens the national service and the Japanese service route." ”
Mowgli is a veteran player and knows everything about the game planners' methods.
The official announcement of data exchange roughly means that the servers that had nothing to do with each other before are now in the same world, but the routes between servers still have to be explored by the players themselves to do tasks.
The sea road that Wang Yu obtained in the last mission is the route between the national costume and the Japanese service, but in the background plot, the sea road has been idle for three hundred years, and now this mission eight achievements are set to open up the sea road.
"Then how do we get to Yingzhou Island now?" Ji Ao leaned over and asked.
The old man said, "There is a cargo ship in the port, which was intercepted by the pirates back then, and you may be able to go to sea on that ship." ”
Yes, even the ship is ready, and the nature of this task is really as Wuji said, finding the former city lord is secondary, and the main role is to reopen the sea road.
Out of the City Lord's Mansion, the Quanzhen Sect and his party found the cargo ship at the port location according to the instructions of the old butler.
To be able to be kept as a treasure by the pirates, this cargo ship is still very large, but it has been stranded for three hundred years, and it looks a little unoptimistic.
In order to highlight the broken characters of this three-hundred-year-old ancestral cargo ship, the planners have done too much, walking on the deck, everyone can hear the creaking sound, and Yin Laoer's cumbersome profession is afraid of stepping on the deck.
