Chapter 99: Anna and the Warlock on
That's impossible! With so many ears, you must have collected them from somewhere else! Maybe...... Or is it a really dirty trick...... There is no way we have so many water ghosts in Towcente! Give you so much money and we'll go straight to bankruptcy ......"
Seeing the left ear of the water ghosts piled up in a small hill, the Principality's chief tax officer jumped up screaming like a little girl.
When he realized what these ears meant, his first reaction was to deny it! If it weren't for Shen Yan just grabbing the clean-up order, and there was more than one clean-up order issued back then...... He won't hesitate to grab it and swallow it!
"Fart! I'm giving you a chance to reorganize the language now! I'll talk about it for me! Shen Yan was furious, he grabbed the chief tax officer's collar with his left hand, and easily lifted this fat man of more than two hundred pounds! With a casual grasp of his right hand, a huge fireball appeared in his hand!
The fireball was so hot that it instantly scorched the chief tax officer's beard hanging in the air!
At the same time, Shen Yan's eyes were like fire, and the smoke around his body was filled, and the exaggerated sense of intimidation made everyone in the room tremble! Only two "ding" sounds were heard, and the guards guarding the door couldn't hold the halberd in their hands, and both fell to the ground.
"I ...... I need to ask to see Her Majesty the Lady Anna Henrietta. The chief tax officer wiped his sweat and changed his words.
"Hmph, then you hurry up, because my patience is limited!" Shen Yan put away his momentum, threw him away, and casually snuffed out the fireball in his hand.
He added with a sneer, "By the way, did you notice?" These water ghost ears are fresh, because they are all what I got in one night...... I don't think if you call a bunch of guards, they'll never end up better than those water ghosts! If you want to pay an extra pension, just call it! ”
"I understand, I understand...... Please be sure to give me time. The chief tax officer ran out sweating.
Looking at the back of the chief tax officer who had escaped, Shen Yan said to himself with some confusion, "Strange, how did he know that I mixed Skellig's water ghost ears into it?" The ears of the water ghosts in the two places are different? Hum! No way...... It must have been Assistant No. 1 who betrayed me! ”
Assistant No. 1 in the Land of the Dead, with a black cauldron shivering above his head.
Boss, why don't you teach me how to betray the summoner with a summon?
I'm not one of those guys in the abyss, I'm very disciplined.
In fact, even if the Attorney-General used the fastest speed, when he had completed the audience process, he asked the Lady to come to the Collector's Office...... It's already afternoon.
When Duchess Anna Henrietta walked in angrily, she was shocked to find that Shen Yan was sitting in the seat of the chief tax officer, with neat napkins on the dining table, and several delicious foods were served on extremely delicate disks and placed on the table.
Looking at Shen Yan's casual use, the metal tableware clanged on the dishes, and he knew that it was not just taken out to show off...... He's usually so rude!
Don't take good things for granted...... Damn it!
What surprised the Duchess even more was that the two of her Duchy soldiers on duty for the General Administration of Taxation actually stood aside like waiters, serving a glass of wine and serving Shen Yan!
The angry little flame in Duchess Anna's heart is burning more and more!
She pressed and pressed before she said in a normal voice, "Get out!" The two guards left in a hurry, and they didn't know why they did that...... The tax commissioner looked at it and followed him quietly.
As for the safety of Her Majesty the Lady Anna Henrietta, there was no need to worry about this, because four or five crossbows were already in place. There are also eight of the best knights of the principality, just outside the door, ready to rush in and grab people! As for the rest...... Then there is none.
The Duchy of Touscent is a small place, and there are not many powerful masters in the service of the Duchy. There was once a sorceress, Fringiravigo, a distant relative of the Baroness of Anna, who had served the Duchy for a time. However, since she was a member of the Sorceress's Hall, she is now living in the prison of Nilfgaard, enjoying free prison meals.
"Good afternoon, honorable ......" Shen Yan picked up the clearance order and read it according to the signature on it, "Her Majesty Lady Anna Henrietta, I guess you are here to pay, right?" ”
This contemptuous attitude once again aroused the Duchess's anger!
I'm not angry, I'm not angry...... Duchess Anna gritted her teeth in anger, she felt that she was being blackmailed! But holding a handkerchief in his hand, he was helpless in his heart...... The strength of the other party is not something she can imagine just by hearing about it, but the strength will never make her succumb!
If she's a selfish person, she'll hide in the distance to let the guards solve the problem, and even issue a bounty to the Ranger Knight; If it still can't be solved, then ask the suzerainty of Nifgaard for help!
So that the person who is in danger no matter how will not be her, and even she does not need to take responsibility for failure. But Duchess Anna also considered herself a ruler who loved her country, so she came in person, trying to impress the other party with words...... After all, Anna is unusually confident in her beauty, and she has the whole country smitten by it.
It has been said that the reason why Nilfgaard was so tolerant of Towson was because the Emperor Enshir Enrith was an admirer of Archduke Anna.
"You should understand that you are belittling a country! Even if she is only a principality, she is still an independent and complete country, and her dignity is absolutely not to be provoked! The Grand Duke raised her swan-like neck, revealing the most perfect side to shoot back at Shen Yan.
Her eyes stayed on Shen Yan's pointed ears for a second, as the second part of the counterattack!
Well, she is completely flattering and throwing it to the blind to see that she was just hinting that although Tao Sente does not discriminate against elves, but elves are by no means noble and cannot be knighted, and they are not worthy of being let her look at her at eye level, but Shen I am a rude modern person, and I can't get her point at all, and I think she is showing off coquettish......
So in line with the principle of not looking at the white and not looking at it, his eyes stayed on the white flower for at least ten seconds.
"Your Majesty, I have to solemnly remind you," Shen Yan frowned, raising the piece of paper in his hand, "This is your order, your price, I just did a little work...... Now that you say it's a mistake, are you going to break the promise you made? That's not a good thing for a country. ”
"But you're a warlock! I can't trust you! Duchess Anna blurted out, and since she had said it, she would simply pick it out.
"Don't think I don't know about the tricks and tricks of your warlocks...... These...... Vomit these filthy ears! Maybe you conjured it up with a toad, and you're going to use it to cheat out all the money in our treasury? Don't even think about it! ”
Shen Yan was really helpless, "Your Majesty, do you want to tell me that you don't even have a few thousand gold coins in your treasury, or do you want to tell me that your principality doesn't have the slightest magical power, and you can't even tell if these are toads or not?" ”
Duchess Anna opened her mouth and finally could only say stiffly, "I have money in my treasury!" But never to a fraudster! ”
"Also, Your Majesty, I would like to ask a question, did you send someone to the Sansredo Marsh while you were arguing with me?" Looking at the duchess's ignorant look, Shen Yan's whole body was weak. "Your Majesty, a strange woman like you, who is both beautiful and wise, must have sent someone to the swamp to check on the swamp before confronting me to make sure that the water ghosts had been cleaned up on a large scale, right?
After all, for you, whether the Sansredo swamp can be developed is the most important concern, and money is a small matter. ”
“…… Not...... That's right, you guessed it right. The Grand Duchess looked away with a slightly red face.
Damn, I really should have sent someone to check it out first! It's a shame now!
"Then so be it," Shen Yan waved his hand, and the food and tableware on the table disappeared instantly. "I'll stay in a hotel in the city, and we'll talk about pay when you're confident that you've checked the situation. Here are seven thousand one hundred water ghost left ears and forty-two swamp witch claws, you can send someone to count them slowly. It is believed that a few thousand crowns is really a small problem compared to the Sansredo swamps, which can be developed on a large scale. ”
The corners of Archduke Anna's mouth twitched, but she could only smile and nod in agreement.
It's a small problem, a fart! I just bought some paintings in the name of decorating the palace and can go public money, and now I can't come up with a few thousand crowns at all!
Waiting for Shen Yan to leave, Duchess Anna stared at the piece of ketchup left in the corner of the table, looking at it again and again.
She suddenly stretched out her finger and dipped it in her mouth......
Phew, it's really not an illusion!
