Although Powabut's voice was clear and the narrative was organized, Cang Shilan was still confused, but he felt that the fat shopkeeper didn't seem to want to blackmail him. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The city lord nodded again and again when he heard this, and praised Powabu for his general knowledge and knowledge of advance and retreat.

Listening to the accusation of the fat shopkeeper, the city lord took a book case: "The liar stepped forward." ”

Cang Shilan didn't dare to move, nonsense, if you take a step forward, you won't become a liar.

Seeing that Cang Shilan still refused to admit that he was a liar, the fat shopkeeper was not angry, and quietly gestured to his subordinates and asked them to take a big step back together.

There are two ways to get ahead, one is to step forward yourself, and the other is to retreat from others.

So, Cang Shilan appeared in front of the city lord so gorgeously.

When the city lord saw Cang Shilan's handsome appearance and elegant manners, he couldn't help but sigh: "You are a beautiful woman, why should you be a thief?"

Suddenly, the city lord looked down at the portrait spread on the table, it was exactly the same as the Cang Shilan in front of him, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Fortunately, I tried the case at night on a whim today, otherwise I really wouldn't know where to find this person.

The city lord originally wanted to come down and talk to Cang Shilan, but suddenly remembered that the case was not closed now, so he sat back in his place and patted the book case: "Powabut!"

Powabutt hurriedly stepped forward: "The villain is here!"

"The guest in front of you is dignified and extraordinary, and he is not a liar. Your previous dispute was nothing but a misunderstanding. I'm in charge, how about you both stop here?"

Powabut suffered heavy losses, how could he give up easily, and wanted to fight for it, so he said: "Your Excellency, ......"

"Huh?"

The murderous nasal voice of the city lord blocked all the words below Powabut.

"Thank you, sir!" Powabut said helplessly.

"Wait. At this time, Cang Shilan spoke.

He did not agree with such a closure.

He wanted to figure out the reason for all this, what caused him to be willing to pay the gold coins but was regarded as a bad man.

I don't know why, this time the city lord is very polite to himself, but will he be so lucky next time?

If you don't fully understand the mystery, Cangshi Blue may not be able to move an inch in the Pige Continent.

The city lord looked quite bad-tempered, but when he heard Cang Shilan's words, he not only didn't get angry, but said with a smile: "Yes, yes, Powabut framed you, and you should be punished. Do you want him to pay 10,000 or 20,000 gold coins, or confiscate the storefront, or wash away your shame with his blood?"

Hearing this, the fat in Powabut's deep body trembled.

When he came to file a lawsuit, he had already calculated all the results.

In the worst-case scenario, these people are really imperial spies, and in order to maintain the image of the empire and the prosperity of the market, the city lord will also force a few people in front of him to pay the bill.

After all, the words "Pijing Republic" on the city walls are not just slogans.

Moreover, as a big merchant in Changchun City, he contributed a lot of taxes to the empire.

For a while, he was full of tears in his heart, and secretly regretted that he had rejected Pig's neighbor's proposal ten years ago.

Ten years ago, he was still a young man, in his prime, tender and lovely.

The little girl next door took a fancy to him and asked someone to come to the door to propose.

And he flatly refuses because he can't stand Pig's flat nose.

Now that I think about it, it was a big mistake.

With a Pige wife, the husband is more expensive than his wife. He will no longer have to be idle by the guards, and it will be fairer for the Pige City Lord to deal with the problem.

It's a pity that everything is late.

Powabut kept bowing to Cang Shilan, silently begging Cang Shilan to let him go.

Cang Shilan didn't want to bully others, he just wanted to find out the truth of the facts, so he said, "No, no need." I just want to ask the shopkeeper one thing, I paid the gold coins, why do you still say that I eat overlord meals?"

The city lord breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he didn't want to deal with Powabut, if he really wanted to kill Powabut, who would pay the taxes?

Over the years, the stores in Changchun City have been opened and closed, and closed and closed. Who has a restaurant in Powabut that has been open for a long time, and who has paid more taxes than Powabut?

The city lord waved his hand and motioned for Powabut to hurry out, so that even if Cang Shilan repented, he would not be able to find someone to vent his anger.

Powabut understood, and hurriedly slipped away with a group of men.

Cang Shilan was willing to let him escape, and chased two steps and grabbed Powabut's collar.

The city lord said: "You don't need to ask that short-sighted waste this question, the city lord can tell you." ”

Cang Shilan let go of his hand, and Powabut's "whoosh" disappeared, and it was difficult for him to be a big fat man, who actually ran as fast as the wind.

The city lord continued, "The reason is simple, you are using illegal coins. ”

Cang Shilan took the gold coin from the mouth of Cang Xiaofeng on his shoulder, shone it at the light, and said, "But my money is real." ”

"It's because it's true. The lord of the city wiped the handful of his beard like Rendan with his finger and said, "The empire has decreed that anyone who receives, stores, and transports the coins of the former dynasty shall be punished for treason." ”

Cang Shilan's hand shook, and the gold coin fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

Cang Xiaofeng flapped her wings, jumped to the ground, picked up the gold coin, and flew back to Cang Shilan's shoulder.

Cang Shilan's heart was cold, it was over, he had become a poor bastard with half a bag of gold coins, how could he mix up on the Pige Continent in the future. Alas, how did he become the poorest rich man?

The city lord thought he was frightened, and said with a smile: "Those who don't know are not guilty, you don't have a heart, and there are people above you, they won't punish you." ”

Cang Shilan asked, "But...... But the gold coins of the previous dynasty were also full of red gold, so why can't they be used?"

The city lord's gaze was as cold as a blade, and he glanced at Cang Shilan.

But when his eyes fell on the portrait on the bookcase, he faded away the killing intent in his eyes and said: "This is what you ask, if someone else asks, it will be killed first and then tried." ”

Kill first and then triage, then you still try Mao? Left and right is to fabricate charges against the dead, and the dead will not defend themselves anyway.

The city lord continued: "In fact, the starting point of all this is all derived from the national policy of the Pige Empire - 'Puppet Republic'. ”

Hearing these four words, Cang Shilan hurriedly looked at Lilith, this woman seemed to have a grudge against Pig, and as soon as she heard the word Pig, she immediately gritted her teeth. And the four words of Pijing Republic made her even more crazy.

In case she snorts again and is heard by the city lord, I am afraid that it will cause great trouble.

Fortunately, Cang Shilan's eyes arrived in time and forced Lilith back with a soft snort.

The city lord didn't notice the eye contact between Cang Shilan and Lilith, and said to himself: "Actually, the world is peaceful, everyone has food, everyone has clothes to wear, and everyone has books to read. However, there are such some people who think that the present is not as good as the past, and they take the things of the previous dynasty as treasures, and use them to make a living, how can it really be reasonable!"

Speaking of this, the city lord suddenly became angry and slapped the table hard.

"Therefore, His Majesty the Emperor believes that everything that belongs to the previous dynasty should be confiscated. However, the previous dynasty lasted for thousands of years, and there were countless things left behind, and the workload of collecting all of them was too great, so His Majesty the Emperor ordered the abolition of the gold coins of the previous dynasty and strictly prohibited the circulation and use. However, some elves clinged to the inadequacy and stubbornness, and privately insisted on using the gold coins of the previous dynasty. Therefore, spies from all over the country have been dispatched to use the gold coins of the previous dynasty everywhere for consumption, and all merchants who are willing to accept the gold coins of the previous dynasty will be raided and wiped out the next day......"

The city lord gushed about the lessons of Changchun City in attacking the coins of the previous dynasty, and his expression was very proud.

Lilith listened silently, her fists clenching tighter and tighter, her nails sinking deep into the flesh.

The city lord didn't pay attention to Lilith hiding in the shadows, and kept staring at Cang Shilan.

He noticed that Cang Shilan's expression was very painful, and asked coldly, "It seems that you have a lot of affection for the gold coins of the previous dynasty." ”

Cang Shilan said with a wry smile: "I'm not an elf clansman, what feelings do I have for the gold coins of the previous dynasty." It's just that I came to the Pigg Empire from other places, and I don't know the current situation of the Pig Empire, and all the gold coins I brought with me are gold coins from the previous dynasty. Now that the gold coins of the previous dynasty are not allowed here, I am worried about what will happen to my life in the future. ”

The city lord's expression gradually softened, and after a little thought, he said: "Those who don't know are not guilty, if someone in the Pigg Empire carries and secretly hides the gold coins of the previous dynasty, it will naturally confiscate the property, and ask for the crime and kill the head." But if you are a foreigner, then I will open the door and exchange it for Pigge Gold Coins, and the exchange ratio will be two to one...... No, let's exchange it one-to-one. But now that the treasury is closed, let's exchange it tomorrow morning. ”
