"Originally, our taxes were paid to Lord Grigori, a generous lord of the city, who collected only twenty percent of the harvest and left the rest to us, and our village prospered day by day. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info "Everyone sat or stood, sitting around the village chief's house, while Ye Yu was sitting opposite the village chief, and the village chief began to tell the story of the matter.

"However, one day, the tax collector under the Grand Duke of Ophel suddenly broke into the village and forcibly collected the tax, and since then the tax has been collected by the Grand Duke of Orpheir.

The Grand Duke of Ophir was a greedy man, and he took fifty percent of the harvest every time, and even levies it extra, and we had a bad harvest one year...... After paying the taxes, everyone went hungry. As he spoke, the village chief sighed again and said, "That year, if it weren't for Count Grigory's smuggling of some food, more than fifty of us would have starved to death. Since Grenade Gnavier took the throne, she has also sent a lot of food one after another, so that more than 20 of us did not go hungry before the harvest. ”

Speaking of this, the village chief sighed again.

The other villagers also looked at each other, with gratitude and frustration on their faces.

Since the arrival of the tax collector of the Grand Duke of Orphe, they have not had a good day, and they are busy every day, fearing that the crops will have three long and two short, and they will not be able to pay the taxes. At that time, the whole village is probably gone.

"I look at the houses outside, there are at least fifty or sixty people living here, and there is no one working outside......

"Because of dissatisfaction, they were all captured by the Grand Duke of Ophel, and these people are left." The village chief said.

Ye Yu frowned, and said in his heart: This is another robbery of taxes, but also of human resources, this is a good calculation of the Grand Duke of Ophel!

This Archduke Ophel is not a simple greedy idiot, he has a lot of brains. and powerful.

It is impossible to solve the problem of harmony! This kind of person knows what he wants and knows what is best for himself!

This boss is definitely not easy to fight!

"I know, village chief......" Ye Yu nodded, and just as he was about to say something, an arrogant voice sounded outside.

Very arrogant, empty-eyed voice.

"Taxes! Taxes are collected! ”

When he arrived, Ye Yu felt that everyone in the room was nervous, and looked at the village chief in unison.

"He's coming! It's Gilles! Chief. A peasant woman said.

The atmosphere at this time was completely different from the calm atmosphere of the village that Ye Yu felt when he first came, and now he really felt it.

Although the village looks rich, it is actually an empty shell, and the inside has been hollowed out.

Hollowed out by the greed of the Grand Duke of Ophel.

"Lord Grace......" The village chief looked at Ye Yu with a faint hope in his eyes, hoping that he could save them.

As for Grace, it is naturally a pseudonym used by Ye Yu, and now the name Ye Yu, many nobles should know, a viscount with a fief, after all, is very weighty. The major nobles should also understand.

The Offir Territory borders the Hubble Territory, and you should have heard of it. And this time Ye Yu is acting secretly, so naturally his identity cannot be exposed.

And he dealt with the problems of these villages as a viscount, which was even more troublesome. It will definitely attract the attention of Archduke Ophel, and at that time, it is estimated that he will directly use his power to make himself helpless!

Therefore, he can only carry out underground activities, as "Grace", as a foreigner or whatever, to solve the problems of the village.

Free the village from the grasp of the Grand Duke of Ophel.

"What about people! Come out! Come out! Taxes are collected! Taxes are collected! Along with the arrogant voice, there was an even more arrogant knock on the door.

No, it should be said that it was the sound of slamming the door.

At this time, a villager secretly looked out of the village chief's window, and his face suddenly turned pale: "The village ...... No, no, no, that Sir Longer is there! ”

"What? Sir Longer? Everyone took a step back in unison, and some even fell to the ground softly.

The village chief also turned pale, and hurriedly said: "Lord Grace, don't make a move later, collect taxes and collect taxes!" ”

Ye Yu frowned.

The attitude of the villagers has changed, this Sir Longer ...... It's so scary!

"Let's go, let's go out, get ready for taxes, let's go!" The village chief sighed.

"But the village chief, he is paying taxes, and there is not a grain of rice in the village!" The villagers were so anxious that they were about to cry.

"That's better than not dying too!" The village chief shouted angrily, obviously anxious in his heart, but there was nothing he could do, and his heart was on fire.

At this time, Ye Yu picked up the nameless sword, stood up, and said, "Don't worry, just leave this matter to me." ”

As he spoke, he was about to go out.

The village chief suddenly grabbed him and said hurriedly: "Lord Grace, don't! This Longer had fought with the Knights of the Round Table, and I heard that he had wounded one of them, so he was very strong! The famous generals of the kingdom can't beat him! Moreover, this person is cruel and murderous, and he has already carried a lot of lives on his hands...... Even many knights died at his hands. ”

Ye Yu gently removed the village chief's hand and said, "Don't worry about me." ”

"But ......" The village chief wanted to stop again, but Ye Yu had already pushed the door open and walked out. There was a sound outside.

"Who are you! What about the people here? ”

The village chief's face was like ashes, and with a long sigh of "sigh", he followed out with a cane, and the villagers looked at each other, and finally followed out tremblingly.

"The old immortal, it turns out that he is hiding here, pay his taxes quickly! Tax! A middle-aged man with curly hair dressed in aristocratic clothes looked at the villagers with contempt and pointed at the village head, Ma Dong.

And behind him, a person was more than two meters tall, wearing a full body armor, tightly wrapping himself, looking like a mountain of armor, with a big sword larger than a giant sword at his waist, and a pair of eyes looking at the villagers with fierce eyes.

It's as if a lion is watching a pack of prey.

It was Sir Long, and behind the two, there were some soldiers in armor, who at this time put down the work of knocking on the door, and gathered behind the two, numbering about a dozen people.

And Ye Yu looked at that Sir Longer.

The physical fitness is probably elite...... It's just one step away from becoming a hero...... Among the kingdom forces, it is indeed outstanding.

Ye Yu's upside-down eyes slowly returned to normal, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

However, in front of yourself...... It's really nothing! (To be continued.) )
