Chapter Seventy-One: Everyone's Girlfriend

"So you are Ping'an! I still remember you!" Yuan Zheng and Joanna also followed Ping An into the barracks, and when they saw this scene in front of them, Yuan Zheng suddenly remembered that night four years ago, wasn't it the little guy named Ping An who rushed to the city of Kolos alone to report the news! Four years have passed in a blink of an eye, and the little guy back then has grown so big and powerful. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 Listening to the meaning of their words, the Holy See people lying outside the City Lord's Mansion were all killed by him, and when he thought of this, Yuan Zheng was more and more shocked.

"By the way, who are the two people behind you?" Originally, all the people in the barracks were surprised by the change in Ping'an, and they didn't notice that two more people came in behind Ping'an, and at this time, Yuan Zheng suddenly interjected, which immediately attracted everyone's attention. Everyone was confused, and Master Kane asked Ping An.

"They are ......"

"Master Kane, it's me! I knew you were here a few years ago, and I often came to visit you!" Hearing Master Kane's question, Master Yuan Zheng also knew that his scattered hair covered his face, so Master Kane didn't recognize it, so he quickly pulled away his messy hair to reveal his face, and replied safely.

"It's you! Why did you suddenly disappear a year ago, and now you're dressed like this, and you're still with Ping An?" Bachelor Kane saw Bachelor Yuanzheng's face exposed, and immediately recognized it, and couldn't help but wonder.

"Hey... Do not say... It's all a good thing done by the Holy See!" I told Ping An and them not long ago, and now I was asked by Master Kane again, and Master Yuan Zheng was very sad and didn't want to mention it more.

"Let me tell you about it, here's how it happened......" Seeing this, Ping An told everyone all the things that had happened since he returned to Kolos City today.

"And who is she?" After listening to Ping'an's narration, everyone was still digesting, but the second egg, who had a lot of things, jumped out at this time and pointed to the beautiful woman behind Ping'an and asked.

Joanna didn't understand the relationship between the people in this barracks and Ping An until she heard them talking, and when she heard someone ask her, she was a little embarrassed for a while, and quickly hid behind Ping An, hoping to rely on Ping An's body to cover her.

"Who else could it be, it must be the woman who Ping An brought back from outside!"

"Yes, yes, Ping'an has such a great ability, and suddenly disappeared for four years, and when he came back, even the people of the Holy See dared to beat him, and he must have brought a woman back!" Hearing Erdan's words, the villagers began to coax.

"Ping'an, let's talk about it yourself!" Ping Lei had already noticed the young woman standing beside Ping'an, she had purple-blonde hair, a delicate face, and she was also wearing a long dress with purple lazuli dotted with emeralds, revealing only two slender calves. As soon as I saw this dress, I knew that her back was not simple, so I asked Ping An in person.

"Uh... She... She was... She's my girlfriend!" Suddenly asked this question by his father, Ping An suddenly became embarrassed, he couldn't say that Joanna was the princess of the Aerys Empire who fell from the sky! After stumbling for a long time, peace was in a hurry, so he introduced.

"Girlfriend?" everyone couldn't help but wonder at the same time, because they had never heard of the term "girlfriend" in this other world, so they didn't understand the meaning of it.

"Uh... Name implies... Girlfriend is the meaning of a female friend!You can simply understand it as a friend!" Seeing everyone's confused looks, Ping An was annoyed that he suddenly said this title with a deep meaning in his previous life, but he said it all, and it was not good to take it back again, so he could only explain it with a whim.

"Oh oh oh, so that's the case! Since it's Ping'an's girlfriend, it's also our girlfriend!"

"Erdan is right!"

"Yes, yes, don't see outside!" the villagers echoed.

"Now let's talk about why you were arrested by the Holy See yesterday, I don't know the reason until now!" Ping'an heard Erdan take the lead in saying this, and felt that the whole person was not good for a while, but fortunately, they didn't know the true meaning of "girlfriend" in Ping'an's previous life, otherwise, the misunderstanding would be big. So he quickly changed the topic and asked.

"Why?, then I'd better tell you what happened in the city of Kolos County in the year that Master Yuanzheng suddenly disappeared!" Hearing Ping'an's question, Master Kane replied.

"Teacher, please speak!"

"A year ago, since the Holy See took over the city, in order to prevent the civilians in the city from continuing to flee, the Holy See began to forcibly collect money at the city gate, as long as one person goes out, he must pay a papal coin, otherwise he will not be allowed to leave the city. The Holy See is equivalent to using the county seat of Kolos as a cage, making the civilians still living in the city pay endless high private taxes. You must know that a pope coin is almost half a lifetime savings for ordinary people, and now they have to pay a papal coin even when they go out of the city, how can those city residents who have been forced to pay high private taxes many times still afford. However, the Holy See also stipulated that every household should also pay a tax of one papal currency a year, and after collecting it for several years, those who could not pay it ran away, and there was basically not much left of those who could afford it. A family usually has eight or nine people, and now if they want to leave the county seat of Kolos together, they will charge a capitation fee for leaving the city, which will cost as much as eight or nine papal coins. But if you don't leave, as long as you stay in the city, you will have to pay this private tax compulsorily. If they can't come up with the money on the day set every year, they will be taken away by the Holy See, and it is said that the Holy See will arrest those who cannot pay the private tax and sell them to other places as coolies in exchange for papal coins. ā€

"There are still more than 100 people left in our village, all living in this barracks, and the people who came to collect the private tax from the Holy See came, so as to say it, and set a standard for us to pay 10 papal dollars in private taxes a year. At that time, we still had 18 papal coins in exchange for smelting the Medal of Auxiliary Scholars, which we had to pay in advance when the Holy See levied a private tax in the first year. Later, your Uncle Feng You opened a blacksmith shop in the city, and the big guys helped together, and they also earned more than ten Pope coins in the past three years by relying on this blacksmith shop. After paying the private tax collected by the Holy See in the third year, we no longer had a single papal coin in our hands, and at that time the Holy See suddenly took control of all the city's defenses, controlled the city gates, and set up an exit fee, and we just didn't have time to leave. ā€
