"How long are you going to truce?" The mayor asked.
"It takes three months to recuperate, otherwise the whole thing will not be able to recuperate." Duan Qiu replied.
"Three months?" The town mayor looked at Duan Qiu with an incomprehensible expression, "For three months, you don't do any work, you want to eat up the Holy Flame City." We can't afford to support so many of you here. It's easy for you to say, do you know how much less tax you pay in three months? β
"Mayor, listen to me." Duan Qiu said, "We have been working continuously for half a year, and nearly half of the casualties have been reduced. As I continue to fight, all my family resources are gone. There is no choice but to rest for three months, and there are currently less than 100 people in the Holy Flame City, so as to minimize the disturbance to the city. β
"If it's just that people are tired, you can recruit people. It's hard to recruit people these days, you can hire robots. Robots are not afraid of death or tiredness, but they are more effective than these brothers you hire. Duan Chang suggested, "You can't do this and stay idle for three months without going out, how can this work?" β
"Mayor Mare!" Bai Silu said with a smile, "We mainly used these three months to rest and train, and if we don't strengthen our business skills, how can we face future challenges." And after three months, there will be a technical assessment, and the best will be eliminated. β
"If you say that, you'll understand." The mayor was still not satisfied with them stopping work, "By the way, how many times have I said that you can't bring a stranger here, why bring him here today?" These two don't look like good people at first glance, fat with oil and thin with bones. β
The mayor said that he didn't look like a good person, and Yuan Shou took out his ruffian temperament and squinted at the mayor. What I mean in my heart is that there is a kind of trying to pull Lao Tzu away. Don't embarrass me, the laws left by the Holy Flame City for thousands of years cannot be broken.
Seeing that Yuan Shou was not convinced, the mayor did not trouble him, but turned the spearhead in other directions.
"Say a few words to you, and take out this gangster." The mayor complained, "I think you two are very familiar, and you are probably the most wanted criminals recently." If I don't check, my heart is not at ease. β
"How is that possible!" , Bai Silu immediately stepped forward to greet him, and now he can only secretly take money to settle this matter, and always let the town be entangled here, and he has to do something. The thick bill was taken out and handed over to the mayor who suddenly appeared.
"What is this for?" The mayor said angrily, "Want to settle this matter with money? You're looking for the wrong person. β
Today's mayor doesn't know what is going wrong, so he has to come here to trouble them. What can usually be settled with money has become a big trouble today.
"Tell you, if you're like this, don't blame me for being unkind. You know, you're paying bribes. The mayor's face changed suddenly.
Yuan Shou, who was watching the excitement on the side, was very interested, and he really couldn't imagine that the three guys who were calling for wind and rain were still afraid of a town mayor. The three of them were like little mice in front of the mayor, in addition to saying polite words, they also had to give big gifts, not only did they not appreciate it, but they also had to track it down to the end, and the three of them were so frightened that they didn't dare to come out.
Seeing that Bai Silu wanted to use money to exonerate the two, there must be something wrong with these two people.
Either they have a criminal record or these two people are being arrested, and they take the money to let me leave as soon as possible, no need to ask, they must be plotting some criminal activities.
The mayor insisted, "Who is he, I'm going to make a record here." β
The mayor of the town is unreasonable today and wants to check the identities of Shaokang and Yuan Shou. If you don't come up with an identification card to prove your identity, the mayor will still have his eyes on it.
"My mayor." Bai Silu pleaded, "We are all villagers in the village, and we are all neighbors who live nearby. There really is no such thing as a bad person. β
"It's hard to say." The mayor insisted, "Recently, the empire has been purging bandits, and many bandits have been scattered around, and as the mayor of a town, I must think about the installation of this town." Don't recruit scattered bandits in the name of expanding your staff. β
"Mayor of the town, please rest assured, we recruit anyone, it is impossible to recruit bandits, they come don't say you have a headache, my head hurts even more. These people can't be managed. "Guanshan has been enduring his emotions, and when he saw the mayor's strength to live and die and not let go of his soft and hard mouth, he wanted to come hard, and he casually dealt with it and wanted to do it behind the mayor's back to end him.
His behavior was stopped by his eldest brother Duan Qiu, and Duan Ye didn't want to turn his face with the mayor at this time. It was really very unpleasant for the two sides to quarrel, and it was impossible for the Holy Flame City, which was the rear base, to stay for a long time. The only way to find a new place to live can be negotiated and resolved by force.
Duan Qiu asked with a smile, "Brother! What are you here for? β
"Routine!" Mayor Mare, "You two show your identification cards. Don't get close to me, you can't talk about friendship in business. β
The mayor reached out and asked for the identification cards of the two.
Yuan Shou, "I didn't bring my card, scan my fingerprints!" β
Yuan Shou slapped his big hand on the table, and when he saw Yuan Shou's big hand, the mayor was a little embarrassed.
"I don't have a fingerprint scan device here, I can only look at the identification card." The mayor said arrogantly, "If you two don't have one, you can only come with me." β
"Mr. Mayor, you can look at me." Shaokang handed over his identification card.
The mayor swiped the information on his broken hand-held identification machine, and swiped it several times before reading the information. The monitor finally showed the information he wanted to see, and the mayor's eyes suddenly lit up when he saw the information. And then the attitude immediately changed.
"Are you Shaokang?" The mayor asked.
"Exactly!"
"Is that the one who is famous all over the world, Shaokang's predecessor?"
"Strange people can't talk about it, but they live for a long time."
"Look!" The mayor twitched his mouth and said, "I have eyes and don't know gold and jade, and I ask His Holiness not to be angry." β
The mayor immediately stood up and bowed to Shaokang in apology.
"I didn't expect you to be the famous Shaokang senior." The mayor of the town said with a smile, "This is really a big flood that washed the Dragon King Temple, and the family doesn't know the family anymore." β
Mayor Mare looked excited, "Guys, you know. Senior Shaokang is an immortal, if you invite him over, the Holy Flame City will shine. β
"I didn't think you knew Venerable Shaokang too?" Duan Ye was unexpected.
"Of course! Not only do we know, but we have always worshiped the lives saved by Shaokang's predecessors, and we have always worshiped them. The mayor immediately got up and gave up his throne to Shaokang to sit down. The mayor of the town sat up respectfully and respectfully, and let Shaokang be here with a very humble attitude.
"You're welcome!" Shaokang said, "Now that everyone has their own position, what else to move, let's sit down and talk slowly." β
Hey! The mayor's smiling face bloomed, "I said, how do you look familiar?" It turned out to be Shaokang. I don't think you can come to the Holy Flame City, I should invite you to come and sit at home, and we should have a good chat. β
"Mayor Mare? How did you meet him? Duan Qiu asked.
The mayor replied with a smile, "He used to treat me when I was young. This time I will never forget. It's just that I was too young back then, and I only remember my appearance in a trance, and I have forgotten the others. β
Hey! Mayor Mare still smiling awkwardly, "I don't know, you're always here." Look at you guys talking about private matters, I'm not an outsider. You talk first, I'll avoid it first. β
"Mayor Mare!" Duan Qiu, "It's all my own family, there is nothing private about it, since you're here, don't go, sit down and have a light meal together." β
"I'm not involved in this, after all, it's your private food, and it's not appropriate for outsiders to participate. You eat first, and when you are finished here, I will definitely invite Shaokang seniors to rest at home. I will not stay with you at night, but will go to my house to rest. This is not like a place for men to live, come to me to rest and be quiet. I'm in charge of food and shelter. Eat a few of you, I'll take my leave first. "The mayor of the town invited Shaokang to live in their house,
The mayor came and went fast. The false alarm just now was finally temporarily resolved, but let Shaokang go to live at the mayor's house, Bai Silu was really unwilling to do this.
Mayor Marew wouldn't come here for no reason, and I really don't know what brought him here. Duan Qiu began to be suspicious of the mayor.
"Big brother!" Bai Silu suggested, "We will discuss his matter later, and we will solve Shaokang's matter today." β
The two of them whispered and discussed that they would settle the current matter for the time being.
"I'm really sorry Venerable Shaokang!" Sent the mayor away, Duan Qiu immediately came back to accompany Shaokang.
"Venerable Shaokang? Do you have an impression of this man? Duan Qiu asked.
"There are tens of millions of people healed, how can you remember such a person." Shaokang, "is nothing more than an admirer." If I were to take you to the place where I often practice, there would be more people who know me. β
"Venerable Shaokang, where do you often practice medicine?" Bai Silu asked from the side.
"In the past, the desert was all my place to practice medicine, and in the past two years, I have been practicing medicine in Tuliang. Although the road is a little farther, there are friends over there who can stay for free. β
"I see." Duan Qiu can quite understand.
"Venerable?" Duan Qiu said, "You'd better go back to your original position, right?" β
Shaokang smiled, "Don't go, it's cold in the high places, it's good to sit here, at least no one will come to twist, sit steadily." β
"That's fine, it's easy for everyone to talk."
"Venerable, you have seen that it is really not easy for us now." Bai Silu explained to Shaokang, "Every time the mayor comes, he wants to loot a lot of us. At least 200,000 at a time, and when there are more, millions can't be beaten. β
"If you encounter such a mayor, you can kill him, and you can still allow him to be presumptuous." Yuan Shou.
"Brother said lightly, how about you kill a mayor?" Bai Silu complained, "He is a mayor with legal status, a mayor who is protected by the laws of the Grand Alliance. Whoever dares to touch him, killing him is tantamount to being the enemy of the Grand Alliance. Hundreds of us are not so bold. β
"Look at your cowardice, he didn't stand on my head to and pee, if he dares, be the first to break his neck." Yuan Shou boasted.
"Venerable?" Duan Qiu asked, "Since you have a one-sided relationship, can you talk to us and be accommodating." If the mayor can reduce some of the taxes, you've helped us a lot. β
"If my face is really so big, I'm willing to help."
"Thank you, Your Holiness." Duan Qiu said, "You must have a few kind words to the mayor. β
"It's not clear whether it will be successful or not, so I don't need to thank you first." Shaokang is very modest. Just then, someone suddenly barged in, "Report? "This man ran in in a hurry, and I don't know why.
Duan Qiu didn't know what it was, and he was afraid that what this person said when he came in was confidential, so he didn't dare to let him announce it in public, so he pulled it aside and found a corner before asking. That's when he knew. It turned out that the mayor of the town sent someone to pick up Shaokang and his party. is in such a hurry, obviously because he doesn't want to let himself have extra time to talk to Shaokang.
It's a good thing to leave now, and while the iron is hot, maybe we can talk about taxes and fees, and maybe the mayor of the town will reduce some of the fees for the sake of favors. Thinking that there were still a lot of things that I didn't ask Ming Shaokang, how could I let him go easily.
Shaokang suddenly became a hot item, I really don't know what the mayor wants Shaokang to do. It's definitely not because I thank Shaokang for saving my life back then. It must be something to ask for, or to see if there is a disease. It's a little reluctant to let Shaokang leave now, and he can't afford to offend the mayor if he doesn't leave.
"Big brother! People are urging them to hurry up, and if they slow down, I'm afraid they'll break in. β
"Don't worry, you go and appease them first, give more money, give more gifts. You said that you were changing clothes for Venerable Shaokang here, and Venerable Shaokang had to attend the banquet in formal attire. β
"What's wrong with Big Brother?" Bai Silu came running and asked. Duan Qiu originally recounted this incident.
"Big brother! It's all my fault! Bai Silu had no choice but to admit his mistake, "If I didn't let you make a big fuss, how could I attract the mayor here." β
"It's too late to say this, we need to think of a solution." Duan Qiu, "What now?" Send Shaokang out, I don't know if I can't come back? β
"Big brother! Shaokang wants to leave, so let him go. Isn't it good that someone accepts him now? Now that we have all the letters, what's the use of keeping him? Bai Silu asked.
"This thing is just a layer of skin, the internal muscles and skeleton, we don't have it."
"Muscles and skeletons?" Bai Silu didn't understand what he meant.
"What did you say, could it be that you forgot?" Duan Qiu asked, "What we need is history and culture, and more inheritance." We've found the name now, but do you get his history? Know their culture? You don't know this, how can you brag to people that you have a history. β
Bai Silu finally understood, "What the eldest brother said is very true, now he didn't say these things, let alone give us any documents and classics. β
"Now no one knows what the mayor is thinking, I'm really afraid that he will detain Shaokang in his mansion."
"Big brother, you're too worried, how can it be?"
"Second brother, you can think of the mayor too simply." Duan Qiu said, "Why did he suddenly break in, it was nothing more than to confirm whether the person we invited was Shaokang." If so, he now begins to execute his second step plan. At first, I thought that the mayor might have a premeditated plan with Shaokang, but now it seems that the mayor may have something to ask Shaokang. β
