Chapter 306: The Tax Collector Arrives
Chapter 306 Tax Collector Arrives
Sure enough, many people leaned over from the entrance of the village, and behind them, Lin Feng and Qian Lingxue could clearly see that a group of people were walking towards the village.
This group of people are all wearing armor, and judging from the fluctuations of soul power emanating from their bodies, their strength is not weak, probably around the same level.
This made the expressions of Lin Feng and Qian Lingxue become strange, because the two of them couldn't tell what the identities of these people were.
But they quickly understood.
The expressions on the faces of the surrounding villagers became strange, and among the group of people who walked in from outside the village, one of the tall men had already stepped forward and stood in front of these villagers, and the group of villagers were all looking at the tall man at this time.
At this moment, the tall man had already raised his head and set his eyes on the village chief.
Immediately after, the tall man said to the village chief in a cold voice, "Village chief, shouldn't you pay the taxes in your village?"
"It's been so long, and the war taxes in other villages have already been paid, aren't you going to pay them?" 藲礿尛裞網
The man in charge was very polite when he spoke, and the expression on the village chief's face really changed somewhat.
Qian Lingxue and Lin Feng glanced at each other, and they both read strange looks in each other's eyes.
This tall man didn't look like a good thing, and it could be seen from the expressions on their faces that everyone was thinking about what they should do in their hearts now.
The village chief also stood up at this time, showing an embarrassed expression, and looked at the man in charge: "Lord Charlie, although we also want to pay the war tax, we have encountered some troubles in the village these days, and many people have died because of it some time ago.
The village chief said this, and was about to explain what had happened to the village in the past few days to what he called Lord Charlie.
But the man who the village chief called Master Charlie frowned at this time, his face became distorted, and he said even more viciously, "What's the matter with me? But the war tax is what the king has said, and everyone must pay for it, and if you don't give me the money, are you going to let me pay for it myself?"
"I'm giving you two hours, and if you can't give me the money after two hours, don't blame me for using force to ask you for money."
When Charlie said this, he shook his fist in front of them, and when the fist was clenched, the bone joints rubbed and made a crackling sound like popping beans, which sounded very scary.
Seeing this scene, the expressions of Qian Ling Xue and Lin Feng became strange.
What the two of them didn't expect was that in the territory of the Heaven Dou Empire, there would be such a person.
Looking at the appearance of these people, they should be officials of the Heaven Dou Empire, but what they do is not at all like an official, not only do they not care about the people at all, but they also want to expropriate and extort tyranny, where does such a means look like being an official.
The village chief's face turned pale, and his heart began to panic.
Seeing this scene, Lin Feng finally couldn't sit still, stood up suddenly, and looked at Charlie viciously: "Do you officials of the Heaven Dou Empire treat your people like this?"
When he said this, he showed an angry expression.
The matter of collecting taxes within the Heaven Dou Empire had nothing to do with Lin Feng, but the way they collected taxes was indeed a bit excessive, which made Lin Feng feel very unacceptable.
It was precisely because of this that when Lin Feng looked at the people in front of him, he also showed a cold expression.
Charlie didn't expect that in such a place, someone would dare to stand up and refute himself, and after hearing Lin Feng's voice, he also looked at Lin Feng at the same time.
But when he found out that the person he was talking to was a teenager who didn't look like he was a teenager
, and when there was no soul power fluctuation in his body, he was stunned for a moment.
Then there was a dumb laugh.
"What are you qualified to stand up to me?"
"But you look pretty handsome, and if I can arrest you and give it to those dignitaries to be servants, it would be a good choice."
Charlie said this, and the other subordinates behind her also understood at this time, and quickly stepped forward to come to Lin Feng's face.
But Lin Feng had already felt very unacceptable about this, so he naturally didn't spare his hand at all, only to see him suddenly sneer, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and an invisible aura instantly flew towards the surroundings with his body as the center.
This powerful force fell on the people around them, only to hear the sound of an explosion in the air, and a moment later, the tax collectors behind Charlie only felt as if they had been hit hard by a sledgehammer in their chests, and they all flew out upside down, falling heavily to the ground, and actually brought up a cloud of smoke and dust.
Charlie was also stunned for a moment at this time, he didn't expect Lin Feng's strength to be even stronger than he imagined, he looked at Lin Feng again, and his eyes became solemn.
"You're not a villager in this village, who are you?"
Charlie can be sure that although all the people in this village have a kind of tiger martial spirit, which can be regarded as a very good martial spirit, but the eyesight of the people living here has never been very good, so there will definitely be no such masters.
And they have been here several times before, and every time they collect taxes, they have not seen such a strong person appear, and now that such a strong person suddenly pops up, Charlie is naturally logical and can conclude that Lin Feng is definitely not from this village.
In the face of Charlie's inquiry, Lin Feng had no intention of concealing it, but he didn't bother to explain to Charlie: "What kind of identity I am has nothing to do with you."
"The purpose of my coming here is just to tell you that from now on, if any of you dare to come here again to collect even a single Copper Soul Coin, I will not let you go."
"Then the Snowy Night Emperor needs money to fight, then let her sell the things in the treasury by herself, if he can't get the money, he will find a way to do it to ordinary people, don't blame me for when I was unkind to him."
When Lin Feng said this, he already showed a cold expression.
When the words fell, everyone present was stunned, but at this moment, Qian Lingxue had already reacted.
