131. Dare to charge management fees?
The commoners didn't buy much, more merchants, and after Bogut and Ruma made an agreement for three thousand bottles of refreshing oil, another merchant immediately ran over panting, pointed at Bogut and scolded, saying that he was not credited and wanted to divide the market of the desert kingdom alone, and then he rushed to Ruma again, and said with a smile that he would also order three thousand bottles.
Wang Dong believes that as long as a normal person sets up a stall, the selling price will not be lower than the production cost, so the larger the trading volume, the more the orcs will earn, which can be seen from the increasingly bright smile on the kobold's face.
Wang Dong counted, there are at least a hundred kobolds who come to sell goods today, if they are here to do tentative trading today, then tomorrow, there should be more orcs, more goods and more coins here, as this market continues, the communication between orcs and humans will be more in-depth, until they are fully integrated into the city.
"Whoa!"
The sound of things tipping over broke Wang Dong's thoughts, and he saw several city guard soldiers standing in front of the stall of the first kobold out of the city gate with spears in their hands, shouting something.
"Hurry up and pay your taxes, or get out!"
The kobold excitedly pointed at the short city guard soldier in the lead and said loudly: "You obviously said that you have paid the tax of ten gold coins for one gold coin, why do you charge two gold coins?"
The leader of the city guard sneered: "That's just on paper, you ask those who rush to the market, as long as there is a market, you will have to pay twenty percent of the management fee, and you will have to pay the inspection fee for the first gold coin, but the city lord said that you have just come here, so this money is free, you sold ten gold coins today, and you will pay the management fee in the morning first, and the management fee in the afternoon will be paid in the afternoon." ”
Wang Dong was stunned, Marat's tax was so high, the normal 10% tax plus 20% of the management fee, as well as a large amount of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, April's was simply scraping two layers of oil off people's bodies.
"!"
The kobold was immediately furious, picked up a beast bone flute from the stall and smashed it at the leader of the city guards.
The thin and long bones smashed the head of the leader of the city guards, and a stream of blood flowed down his cheek, and he wiped the blood on his face, a fierce light flashed on his face, and he waved his hand at the kobold: "Arrest him for me!"
Behind the leader, five or six city guards immediately swung their swords and lunged at the kobold, as if to cut the sharp weapons in their hands at the kobold.
"Roar!"
Wang Dong heard the kobold behind a stall beside him let out a low roar, and his mouth opened upward, revealing two rows of sharp teeth.
"Mom, I'm afraid!"
A little girl was immediately frightened when she saw the kobold like this, and quickly threw herself into her mother's arms, her delicate little face turned white with fright.
Wang Dong suddenly chuckled in his heart.
"Oops. If the kobolds make trouble here, the newfound rapport between orcs and humans will be shattered, and it will be difficult to establish it again. ”
Hurriedly handed Peter over to Rebecca, who came with him, and asked the housekeeper to hold the little one, Wang Dong immediately aimed at the city guards who were getting closer and closer, and sent out a magic missile the size of a ping-pong ball.
The missile slammed into the first city guard soldier with a scimitar, and the kobold, who had no weapons at all, subconsciously blocked his head with his hand, and the bright blade was about to cut off his hand.
"Boom!"
The magic missile exploded on the surface of the knife, shattering the scimitar in all parts, and the small shockwave directly shook the soldier's helmet into the air, and the hair stood back like a storm.
"What kind of person, aren't you afraid of being arrested for obstructing the official duties of the city lord?"
Amid the fierce roar of the leader of the city guards, Wang Dongtie stepped forward step by step with a blushing face, and said coldly: "Is April crazy for money? Doesn't he know how difficult the good situation in front of him is?"
Maybe he didn't know Wang Dong, the leader of the city guard said with a face full of flesh: "Don't tell me these big truths, we have to eat as soldiers, without this money, what will the city lord get to pay his salary!"
Wang Dong felt that he had asked the wrong person, how could these people understand April's thoughts.
Wang Dong also thinks that he is a good comrade, and he will correct his mistakes when he finds them, so he no longer speaks.
Two magic missiles shot out from his left and right hands, hitting the two soldiers next to the leader of the city guards, and after a bang, the two soldiers looked like they were smoky, their bodies were charred black, and their hair was gone.
"Magician?" The leader of the city guards was stunned for a moment, and immediately pulled out a bow and crossbow from behind his back and aimed it at Wang Dong and shot out.
I don't understand why the enemy hasn't fled after knowing his strength, but Wang Dong didn't have time to think about it again, and another magic missile was aimed at the arrow, but this arrow actually pierced the magic missile strangely, and it also dissolved the white bright ball of light and continued to shoot this way.
Hurriedly flashed to the side, fortunately, although the arrow broke the magic missile, the speed was slowed down, allowing Wang Dong enough time to dodge.
"Help the Legionnaire!"
With a roar from Ruma, the kobolds rushed out from behind the stalls and rushed to Wang Dong.
"Stop!" Wang Dong stabilized his body with the help of a wooden box next to a stall, made a stop gesture with one hand, and sneered at the leader of the city guards: "Demon Breaking Arrow, what's the big deal!"
He suddenly flicked his right hand, and his straight arm was elongated and sharpened, forming a sharp long sword.
The leader of the city guard quickly turned pale, and said in disbelief: "Knight, it turns out to be a magician and a knight!"
After speaking, he suddenly threw the crossbow at Wang Dong, turned around and ran, and didn't even give orders to the remaining three subordinates.
Wang Dong sneered, after having the talent of knighthood, his speed had already surpassed ordinary people, and he quickly rushed in the direction where the leader of the city guard army had fled, and he did not forget to cast a light spirit technique on himself to make himself faster.
Flying past the three stunned city guards, one punch hit them in the temple, it didn't matter if Wang Dong was dead or stunned, his goal was very clear, that is, the leader of the city guard army in front.
Rushed to his back in three or two strokes, Wang Dong kicked him in the back violently, his short body rolled twice on the ground like a ball, Wang Dong held his sword against the throat of the leader of the city guards, and one more finger was enough to pierce the throat.
"Who told you to collect the management fee?"
"What are you doing, don't come here, I'll tell you, I'm the neighbor of the city lord's brother-in-law, if you dare to threaten me, I'll go tell the city lord's brother-in-law and let him kill you!"
