Mushroom Town can only be regarded as a border town in the kingdom of D'Arena.

Because of the woods, there are no decent roads leading to the sea, so few people will land here.

According to Thea, their small restaurant usually has few customers and can barely make ends meet.

However, because the quality of the mushrooms in the town is very good, merchants from other towns and even the royal capital will come to buy them regularly, and then they can earn a little more and improve their lives.

The Kingdom of D'Erena is a member of the World Government, and even one of the 50 countries eligible to participate in the World Conference, and is not controlled by any pirates.

Thea's husband and the adult men of the town were absent because they had both been forcibly drafted into the army by the king.

The king here is a war maniac, and every time the farming season is off, he will recruit his people into the army and wage war against the kingdom of Gambo in the south of Hourglass Island.

Commoners were naturally reluctant to go, but the king made a law that men of the right age had to respond.

This is not without benefits, as long as someone in the family enlists in the army, most of the heavenly gold can be exempted, otherwise the annual heavenly gold will be doubled.

The burden of paying the heavenly gold as usual is already very heavy, and the whole family will starve to death if it is doubled.

There is no way, except for the nobles and some wealthy families, most of the civilians can only choose to join the army in order to reduce the burden on themselves and their families.

Under the strict laws, the kingdom of D'Erena surpassed the kingdom of Gambibo in terms of troops, and always received a large amount of booty and reparations in each war.

So much so that in recent years, whenever de Arena's army went to the border and showed up with sophisticated weapons, the Kingdom of Gambibo obediently sent the money.

If the kingdom of D'Erena is a little more aggressive, there is a chance to bring down the entire kingdom of Gambo.

But the king did not do that, believing that the number of troops required to be lost in the capture of Ghambo was too great, and that as the size of the country increased, so would the amount of heavenly gold that needed to be paid as the number of people increased.

And because of the special topography of Hourglass Island, even if you defeat neighboring countries, the possibility of rebellion is very high, and it is very troublesome.

It's better to maintain the status quo, at least without worrying about heavenly gold.

Although the Kingdom of Gambibo is richer than de Arena, there is no good way to buy sophisticated weapons, and the current king is relatively weak, so he can only break the bank and avoid disaster.

If nothing else, this situation will continue for a long time.

But this year is different, the Kingdom of De Arena has sent two groups of people to purchase weapons for some reason this year.

The first group of people was not heard from at all, and when the second group returned, they only brought back the first batch of people who went to sea, but they did not bring back any weapons.

The exact reason for Thea is not clear, and this is a secret that only the king and some of his ministers know.

In short, D'Erena was under-armed, and the Kingdom of Gambo didn't know where to get it.

As a result, this year's 'indemnity' was not collected smoothly, and if it weren't for the weakness of the king of Ghambo, he might have to pay the reparation.

"By this time of the year, Ark should have been back." Xia frowned, "But this year is still stationed at the border, although the trustee brought a message saying that it was okay, but ......"

Zhang Da also looked at each other, and when it came to the arms deal, they would first think of Doflamingo.

Coupled with the description of 'two groups of men sent out inexplicably', D'Elena was mostly unable to buy weapons because they had beaten Doflamingo.

As for Doflamingo's time before he became the Seven Martial Seas, it may have had other channels before, but they were all merged by Doflamingo.

When the flamingo fell, the king didn't think of anything else for a while.

"This king ...... It's quite an idea. Zhang Da also said, "At least he didn't completely rely on scavenging money from the people to pay the heavenly gold." ”

Jackie Chan said: "But his forced conscription of troops is very unfriendly to civilians, and it is also unfair to the Kingdom of Gambo that he robbed." ”

Wei Wei felt that Uncle Long was right, whether to join the army or not should depend on the personal wishes of civilians, and should not be forced by heavy taxes, and it is too much to start a war without authorization.

"Maybe, maybe the overall standard of measurement is lower." Ye Yan said, "Compared to the one in the Magnetic Drum Kingdom, he is already good. ”

Wapol's wanton mutilation of civilians was impressive.

Thinking about the scumbag kings of this world, the king of de Arena is indeed quite good.

However, this matter belongs to other people's internal affairs, and if the civilians do not resist, it will not be Zhang Da's turn to point fingers.

Although it is not the same as the imagined situation, Zhang Da is still willing to help a little:

"We're heading south to Ghimbo, should we cross the border, do you need help with a letter?"

"Is that okay? That's great! Thea was overjoyed.

Ark is in the barracks, and it is impossible to use the phone bug to communicate with his family, and it would be good to be able to ask someone to come back and report his safety, but during the war, no one would go to the border casually, and it would be difficult to bring a letter to the past.

Xia forgot for a moment whether the person in front of her was a big person, and hurriedly wrote a letter, even Langa went to write a few strokes, but she may not be able to write much, and her face was full of embarrassment when she held the pen.

Xia handed over the envelope with both hands, and there was a family photo of a family of three on it: "Yaketa was assigned to the Second Army in the West, the Seventh Musket Team, this is his photo, please!" ”

Langa bowed: "Please! ”

Zhang Da also took the envelope: "I will deliver it." ”

After having a meal, I took over a letter delivery task, and everyone was not too troublesome, anyway, by the way.

When Rui Mengmeng and Tom finished their work in the kitchen, everyone was full of food and drink, and Zhang Da also paid for the bill.

Thea said that there was nothing to give them back, so this meal was her treat.

"I got my heart, and if you invite us to dinner, you will go bankrupt." Zhang Da also said, "If you don't want to go, why don't you give us a little more mushrooms?" ”

"No problem!"

Thea took out all the mushrooms left in the house and filled a large basket.

Even Langa brought out the small basket and poured in the little mushrooms she had just picked today.

Thea picked one out with a smile and threw it out in Langa's distressed eyes.

Tom reacted very quickly, appeared in the path of the mushroom in an instant, opened his mouth and swallowed it in one gulp.

Xia was taken aback: "No! That's poisonous, quick, spit it out! ”

Tom's face turned green with fright, and he instantly fell to the ground with his throat clutched.

"Hey~~" Langa was also frightened, "Mom, what to do!" ”

Zhang Da also grabbed the tip of Tom's tail with one hand, and stroked up the tail with the other hand.

Burst!

A clean, never-before-seen mushroom squirted out of Tom's mouth, hitting the wall and then bouncing into the trash.
