Chapter 1608: Additional Levy
The patriarch of the Tian family is still relatively calm, knowing that it is okay to complain, but it is not possible to take it seriously, Jinjiling Town is not something they can provoke, seeing that the Tian family is full of righteous indignation, and he can't wait to settle accounts with the person who urged the levy, he hurriedly said: "What are you doing here?" Do you think that there are not enough things in our Tianjiazhuang? There is a reason for the levy, how can we refuse? ”
The old patriarch said a word, and the Tian family immediately closed their mouths, the highest strength in their Tianjia Village is also a Qi refining cultivator, and the family members in Jinjiling Town are foundation building monks, they can't afford to provoke them at all, and it's just a matter of complaining in private, and now there are people in the village who are sent by the town to urge the conscription, if they are heard by the other party, they may bring disaster to the village.
Seeing that everyone was no longer talking, the patriarch of the Tian family said: "Tian Lisong, you first take the Qingyang Little Brother Dao guest room to rest, and the others should also go home, and the person who urges the levy will be handed over to me to deal with." ”
After finishing speaking, the patriarch of the Tian family said to Qingyang again: "Little brother, I must personally deal with the matter of urging the levy, you go to rest with them first, please forgive me for the neglect." ”
Qingyang understood the other party, and was about to leave with Tian Lisong and the others, when he saw a middle-aged man from the ninth layer of Qi refining suddenly walked over, saw the Tian family patriarch and the others, and said, "Tian family patriarch, you asked me to wait?" Why don't you see anyone for so many days? It can't be to avoid me, right? ”
The head of the Tian family recognized this person, called Ji Zhenglin, because his sister was quite beautiful, and was accepted as a concubine by the mayor of Jinjiling Town, so he had some status in the town, this person was not easy to deal with, and the town sent him to Tianjiazhuang to be a person urging the levy, and I am afraid that things will not be easy to do.
But no matter how difficult it is, it has to be done, the patriarch of the Tian family hurriedly said: "It turned out that the Ji steward was here, it was really disrespectful, and the Ji steward also knew that our Tianjiazhuang was so poor that it was clanging, and the town suddenly added levies, and the village was not enough to worship, so I had to take them to hunt demon beasts." ”
Other people can not give face, but the patriarch of the Tian family has to give some more, after all, he is also a ninth-level Qi refining monk, as the steward of Jinjiling Town, Ji Zhenglin also knows the situation of Tianjiazhuang, these should be the truth, so he said: "I see, I don't know how to gain from this trip?" ”
The patriarch of the Tian family said: "In order to get enough spirit stones, this time our group went farther, it took half a month to go back and forth, and we also encountered danger of life on the way, and almost wiped out the whole army, but fortunately, God blessed, and finally made up enough for this offering." ”
Looking at the relaxed face of the patriarch of the Tian family, Na Ji Zhenglin couldn't help but roll his eyes, and said: "It seems that Tianjiazhuang has gained a lot of money this time, it is in vain that I waited for you for three days, since this is the case, please ask the patriarch Tian to hand over this offering to me, so that I can go back as soon as possible to restore my life." ”
The patriarch of the Tian family knew that this person was not too easy to mess with, and wanted to send this person away as soon as possible, so he didn't go back to the village, and directly opened the talisman, took out the things collected this time, and began to count them one by one, and estimated them into spirit stones according to the value of the materials, so that they could be handed over to Ji Zhenglin to take away.
If these things are brought to Jinjiling Town or Funiu County, the price will definitely be higher, but Ji Zhenglin is in a hurry, and the Tian family has no chance to go to Funiu County, so they can only suffer a little loss and give it to the other party at a discount. After some inventory, the demon beast materials and spirit grass harvested by the Tian family this time can be discounted by about ninety-five spirit stones, and there is still some surplus after paying the offering, mainly because the material value of the fourth-order demon beast is relatively high, and the harvest has exceeded expectations.
During this period, Qingyang did not leave, but stayed behind to watch the excitement, and he found that whether it was demon beast materials or spirit grass, the price they converted was very low. The price is actually very low, because scarcity is expensive, the most important thing here is the demon beast material spiritual material, and there is no way to sell it in the village, so it can only be cheaply converted to others, but Qingyang feels that this conversion price is too low, many of them are only a fraction of the Kyushu Continent and the Gufeng Continent, or even a few tenths, especially the spirit grass, the spirit grass of the same year, it may take hundreds of spirit stones to buy it in other places, but here it can only be converted into a few spirit stones, and the low price is a bit outrageous.
The reason for this is either that the high-level people here are too dark and deliberately push the price to this extent, or there are too many spiritual grasses here, and they can't sell it at all, if it is the latter, it is good news for Qingyang, and when they encounter the right opportunity, they will definitely have to purchase it on a large scale, and the value of the materials used in alchemy will be almost negligible in the future.
Qingyang didn't think about it for the time being, after the patriarch of the Tian family converted the materials, he divided the materials worth twenty-seven spirit stones, pushed the rest to Naji Zhenglin, and said: "Steward Ji, this is our Tianjiazhuang's offering, a total of sixty-eight spirit stones, please take it." ”
Na Ji Zhenglin looked at the materials on the ground, but did not immediately put them away, but looked at the patriarch of the Tian family and said: "Patriarch Tian, you have paid the additional offerings, but what about my labor fees?" ”
"What labor costs?" The patriarch of the Tian family was puzzled.
Ji Zhenglin sneered and said: "In order to collect the labor fees levied by your Tianjiazhuang, I rushed all the way from Jinjiling Town, and I was delayed in your village for three whole days. ”
Hearing this, Tian Dazhuang immediately exploded, and said angrily: "What do you want to do? Your town said that the levy will be increased, and the levy will be levied as much as it says, and now that we have paid all the necessary fees, we still have to give you any labor fees, which is really too deceitful. ”
Tian Dayong couldn't help but say: "Yes, these things are what you should do, and we didn't let you come, why should we pay for labor services?" Does this still make us live? ”
In the face of the excited Tianjiazhuang people, Ji Zhenglin was not afraid at all, not to mention that he had a ninth-level cultivation of qi refining, few people here could beat him, just the identity of the steward of Jinjiling Town made him bold, and shouted: "What do you want to do?" Do you want to rebel? Patriarch Tian, is this your attitude towards the town? Believe it or not, I'll go back and sue you. ”
Other people can do things recklessly, but the patriarch of Tian can't help but consider, there are not a hundred or eighty villages like Tianjiazhuang under Jinjiling Town, and one more or less will not have any impact on Jinjiling Town, if it annoys the people in front of him, Tianjiazhuang is afraid that there will be a disaster of extermination, he hurriedly said: "Ji steward is angry, these children in Zhuangzi have always lacked discipline, if there is a place to collide, please also ask Ji steward to have a large amount, and the matter of labor fees is easy to discuss." ”
