As the current king of the Lu Yi Kingdom, Lu Yi personally received the tax officials of the royal family, because this time it is related to the tax situation of a kingdom, so this time it is the tax minister of the royal family who led the team!

The Luyi Kingdom is the 201st kingdom in the world, and as a kingdom, it is necessary to pay taxes to the royal family, otherwise, why should the Holy See and the royal family seal the title?

In fact, the so-called king is equivalent to the princes of the earth, although they dominate the military and administrative power of a place, but they still have to pay taxes to the imperial court. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Although on the surface, the imperial tax and the Holy See's tax seem to be the two major taxes, but in fact this is not the case, the royal family is actually the Holy See's agency, instead of the Holy See to govern the world, the so-called imperial tax is actually the Holy See's tax, and the Holy See itself does not collect a penny of taxes.

However, in fact, the imperial tax is divided into two, of which eighty percent must be handed over to the Holy See, and the remaining two percent will be reserved for the development and construction of the royal family itself.

Under Lu Yi's hospitality, the tax collector of the royal family inspected the entire Lu Yi Kingdom, the area of the Lu Yi Kingdom is not large, and there is only one main city now, but the area is about a hundred miles, so after a week of inspection, it has ended.

After the inspection, the tax officer closed the door and calculated, and it was not until a week later that he finally came up with the final result and set the tax amount for the Luyi Kingdom!

After handing over the final tax form to Lu Yi, the tax envoy did not stop, and left the Lu Yi Kingdom directly by boat and rushed back to the imperial capital.

Not to mention the actions of the royal tax officials, on the other side, in the palace of Lu Yi's kingdom, Lu Yi sat on the throne with a pale face, holding a piece of leather paper in his right hand, and Lu Yi's hands trembled very badly in the uproar.

According to the regulations, the newly established kingdom has a three-year tax holiday, and now that the three years have passed, Lu Yi has nothing to say about collecting taxes, after all...... The current identity and status are all given by others, and it is also appropriate to pay some fees, but the problem now is that the amount of this tax is too exaggerated.

The Luyi Kingdom has only been established for three years now, and there is only one royal city, according to the provisions of the tax law, it is not impossible to collect taxes, but it must be collected according to the actual situation of the kingdom.

But the current situation is that the taxes set by the royal family are really high and terrifying, and when there is only one royal city, the other party actually charges the same taxes as other large kingdoms!

Take the Kingdom of Camby as an example, it is a superpower, with nearly ten principalities under its banner, and there are hundreds of big cities with a population of more than one million alone, so even if the taxes are high, if they are evenly distributed, there is actually not much, and everyone can still afford to pay them.

However, there is only one city in the Luyi Kingdom now, and the population is less than 100,000, but the taxes that need to be paid are twice as much as those of the Kambi Kingdom!

This is no longer a problem of not being able to pay it, this is obviously bullying people, even if Lu Yi can afford to pay so much money, but this money is not such a payment method, and it can still get everyone's favor when it is used as a gift, but it is just a tax to pay, and it is all done.

A small country with a population of less than 100,000 needs to pay taxes, but it is exactly the same as a large country with a population of one billion! This is really too exaggerated, and to be precise, Lu Yi really can't afford to pay this tax, which is beyond the limit of what he can bear.

So far, Lu Yi has basically spent the money on hand, although the income from selling villas is hundreds of billions, but don't forget that Lu Yi is now laying a supermarket system across the continent, for the time being, it is a bottomless pit, how much money is not enough to throw in, in other words, the more money, the faster the development.

Looking at the huge number on the list, Lu Yi trembled angrily, two trillion! Two trillion taxes a year, this is simply a fantasy! You know...... The Kingdom of Kambi is so prosperous, and it is only two trillion taxes a year, and the Kingdom of Luyi now has only a small city with a population of less than 100,000, what do you use to pay this money?

In the Kingdom of Luyi, there are actually 10,000 real residents now, and the rest are just warriors sent by each household, with the current tax rate, it is equivalent to saying that each household has to pay 200 million gold dong in taxes every year, a price that even the rich cannot afford.

Having said that, in fact, if you insist on everyone paying for it, everyone can pay it out, but if you really want to take it out, who will still stay here? Two trillion a year, it is better to break away from the Luyi Kingdom and pay the road fee directly, after a year, the road fee will not even need to be 100 million gold dong, who will be stupid to stay here and pay 200 million gold dong?

"Draw salary from the bottom of the kettle!" Looking at the form in his hand, Lu Yi finally let out a sigh of relief and ...... ruthlessly It's really too ruthless, this tax rate is certain, you have to pay it, if you don't pay it, you will go against the royal family and the Holy See, and you will inevitably be attacked, but if you want to pay, what will you pay?

"Bang!" slapped on the table in front of him, Lu Yi sneered, the other party did too much, he simply didn't give others a way to live, since he had been forced to a dead end, there was nothing to say, Lu Yi wouldn't pay this tax!

After making a decision in his heart, many things had to be prepared in advance, and after pondering for a while, Lu Yi finally made a decision and convened a meeting of all wealthy businessmen again.

During the meeting, Lu Yi announced the news that every rich merchant living on the surface of the earth would get a set of underground castles for free, and when a foreign enemy invaded the royal city, the rich merchants could enter the underground castle through the secret passage and take refuge there...... It is absolutely safe, even if the enemy sends tens of thousands of tenth-order masters, it cannot threaten the people in the underground castle.

However, the underground castle can be built for them, but how big it is and what materials are used, this Lu Yi doesn't care, if you don't want to, you can not build it, but once there is danger, then everyone will not even have a place to hide.

After listening to the description of the underground castle in detail, all the rich merchants were very tempted, building an underground castle, in fact, the cost is not high, if you just want a simple underground castle, ten million gold shields are enough.

However, who is qualified to sit here who is poor? It is all a famous businessman, who doesn't want such an underground castle after making sure that the underground castle is absolutely safe?

After a lot of discussion, the final result was reached, and everyone unanimously approved this proposal, the entrance to the underground castle is in the above-ground castle, once a foreign enemy attacks the Luyi King City, then the rich merchants will enter the secret passage as soon as possible, and arrive at the underground castle to hide.

If the enemy tries to pursue, they will have to dive underground, and there they will ...... Lu Yi's army is no joke, no matter how many you come, all of them will die!

With such a safe place, the wealthy merchants were overjoyed to not only keep their families safe, but more importantly, to build their own vaults and treasure warehouses underground, and there was no safer place than here.

However, although everyone is ready to build an underground castle, Lu Yi will not interfere with what kind of construction it will be, how large the scale, and how much money will be invested, and everything will be left to the construction corps of the Lu Yi Kingdom.

After the meeting, Lu Yi did not stop, and directly drove the Abyss Demon Worm to the depths of the underground world, where ...... An army that Lu Yi has trained for six years is cultivating hard.

In a huge underground space tens of thousands of meters deep from the surface, a cruel battle is going on at this moment, and tens of thousands of abyss demon insects are frantically fighting and fighting...... Ten thousand! A full ten thousand ninth-order abyssal demon insects, like sharks that smelled blood, were tearing and fighting desperately, and a violent roar shook through the underground space.

These 10,000 ninth-order abyssal demon insects were the army that Lu Yi had carefully prepared for more than six years, in fact...... These abyss demon insects have all been summoned by summoners, and they are ten thousand earth soul beasts of eighth-order summoners!

The eighth-order summoner is considered a high-level martial artist, but because he has not broken through the ninth order, he has not broken through too much in strength, and compared with the ninth-order master, the gap is very large, more than twice as large as the gap between the tenth and ninth orders!

Every time the third order, sixth order, and ninth order, the strength of the martial artist will increase by leaps and bounds, so ...... Although these eighth-order summoners are powerful, they are certainly much stronger than the sixth-order because they have not passed the ninth-order, but their strength is on the same level as the sixth-order, the only difference is that the spiritual power is much stronger and the energy is twice as much.

The ninth-order master has always been the target of the major forces, but the eighth-order master who is only one order apart is not the case, although it is only one order, but the value of the eighth-order master itself is more than a hundred times lower than that of the ninth-order!

If it is said that someone is willing to spend 100 million gold shields for a ninth-order master, then for an eighth-order master, one million gold shields is the limit, one million and 100 million, this is the difference in value between the two.

Ten thousand eighth-order summoners, each of them summoned a ninth-order abyssal demon worm, a full ten thousand ninth-order demon worms, if placed on the surface, their powerful defense, they were almost impossible to defeat. Once they entered the underground world, even a tenth-order master would die tragically at their hands.

In the underground world, 10,000 ninth-order abyss demon insects can easily slaughter 10,000 tenth-order masters, without the need for ontological attacks, with the control of the earth alone, they can crush tenth-order masters into meat sauce at any time!

Of course, Lu Yi's plan is not so simple, these 10,000 abyss demon insects are not randomly selected, with the help of the Vision of God, of course Lu Yi will have a choice.

In terms of potential, these 10,000 abyss demon insects are all full of potential, and they can all be promoted to the tenth order smoothly, and in the realm, they are not the ninth order primary, but the ninth order late stage, which is only one step away from the tenth order!

After three years of training, since three years ago, there have been abyssal demon worms that have broken through the ninth order and reached the early stage of the tenth order, and now, among the tens of thousands of abyss demon worms, more than 1,000 have broken through to the tenth order! And in the next year, these 10,000 abyss demon worms will all break through to the tenth order! By that time...... In the underground world, Lu Yi is already invincible, even if the world's tenth-order masters jointly attack, they are not Lu Yi's opponents in the underground world, the underground world, Lu Yi King!
