Chapter 503: Exploitation
At this time, Mu Xiaofeng's eyes were quick, and he stepped forward with an arrow step to block the attack of this soldier with the white tiger shield.
And Jin Meimei and Kelina also protected Aya's body at this time, Jin Meimei pointed at the soldier and scolded: "How can the hegemon have a cruel and ruthless guy like you, don't you see that this is still a child?" You're going to kill him? ”
The soldier naturally didn't know Kim Mi-mi, he just told Kim Mi-mi not to meddle in things, he just acted on orders.
"How much is the tax money? I paid it for him. Mu Xiaofeng calmly faced this soldier, and he took out a small bag of gold coins from the Space Infinity Belt, which was his last old bottom.
The soldier snapped his fingers and calculated, "It's two thousand gold coins a month, and this guy has been owing three months, a total of five thousand gold coins!" The soldier then stretched out five fingers towards Mu Xiaofeng.
This is also what makes Mu Xiaofeng cry and laugh, this soldier doesn't even understand how much tax he has to pay, this month is two thousand, and three months is obviously six thousand gold coins.
But even if the soldier miscalculated, the five thousand gold coins were a huge amount of money, and Aya was just saying that he had not made up enough for his father's ransom, and if he handed over another five thousand gold coins, Aya didn't know how many years and months it would take to get the money together.
At this time, Mu Xiaofeng smiled at the soldiers, and then told him that he was the distinguished guest of the City Lord of Bai Yitian, and gave them a face, let go of this Aya today, and it was not too late to collect this tax tomorrow.
Then Mu Xiaofeng stuffed the small bag of gold coins into the soldier's hand, and then glanced at the soldier.
The soldier instantly understood what Mu Xiaofeng meant, he checked the bag of gold coins in his hand and put the gold coins into his pocket, and then said to Aya: "I'll let you go for the time being, you have to prepare before tax tomorrow, two, three or five thousand gold coins, not one is missing." Then the soldier snorted and left the shop.
After seeing this soldier leave, Mu Xiaofeng and the others were also relieved, they didn't want to cause trouble like this when they first arrived in Divine Sword City.
At this time, Aya began to pack up the remaining things in the store, he knew that this place could not stay any longer, he was going to leave Excalibur City to do some business somewhere else, and when he had scraped together enough money, he would come back to redeem his father.
Seeing that Aya wanted to leave, Mu Xiaofeng stopped him and asked what was going on.
Aya could only tell Mu Xiaofeng that Aya's father was the best craftsman in this Excalibur City, and the weapons made by his father were extremely sharp, so it could be said that everyone was willing to buy his weapons.
And it was because of Aya's father's excellent craftsmanship that he was jealous of the city lord Bai Yitian, and because of Aya's father, the sales of Bai Yitian's weapon shop plummeted.
So Bai Yitian secretly raised Aya's father's taxes, which were originally only twenty gold coins a month, but now they have become two thousand.
But Aya's father didn't know about his tax increase, and all the shops around him didn't tell Aya's father about it because of Bai Yitian's pressure.
Aya's father was dumbfounded when he knew that he had to pay taxes, and suddenly had to take out two thousand gold coins to come here, how could it be, Aya's father had just ordered a batch of high-quality materials to prepare for making weapons, and there was not so much money in this store at all.
Aya's father was very unconvinced, and he personally went to Bai Yitian's house to find him a theory, he didn't believe that other shops could afford this money.
However, Bai Yitian gave the details of the tax to Aya's father, and called several shops around to testify, and they all said that they had paid the 2,000 tax every month.
Aya's father was imprisoned by Bai Yitian because of this, and if Aya's father did not pay 20,000 gold coins, he would be imprisoned here forever.
And the young Aya obviously didn't know the sinister nature of this matter, he still honestly built weapons and pooled money to redeem his father. But every time this time it was almost time to get together, Aya had to pay taxes, and the monthly income was not enough for Aya to pay taxes, and Aya soon began to sell everything in the store, so Aya's store was empty, and almost all of the things in it were sold short by him.
But later Aya found out that the tax of 2,000 gold coins was a scam, although the surrounding shops paid their taxes on time every month, but the next day Bai Yitian returned 1,800 taxes to these shops, which actually paid 20 gold coins every month, only Aya's taxes were not returned.
After Aya learned the news, he also learned from his father to find Bai Yitian to theorize, but where did Bai Yitian look at this child, Aya was beaten by Bai Yitian and thrown out of the house, and since then Aya has never paid a penny of taxes, until today, this soldier came to the door to force Aya to a dead end.
Mu Xiaofeng and the others were very angry when they heard this, they didn't expect Bai Yitian to bully people like this.
But now that Luo Jianxin is not in Shenjian City, he rashly went to Bai Yitian to theorize that Bai Yitian would not necessarily buy it, so Mu Xiaofeng asked Aya to temporarily hide in the village next to him, and when Luo Jianxin came back, Mu Xiaofeng found a way to rescue Aya's father and let them meet again.
When Aya heard that Mu Xiaofeng wanted to help him, he quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Mu Xiaofeng three times, and said, "Thank you, sir!" If adults can save my father, Aya is willing to be a cow and a horse to serve adults for the rest of her life. ”
Mu Xiaofeng touched the child's little brain, and he promised Aya that he would definitely rescue his father.
Then Aya took out a pair of iron bracelets from his clothes, he handed the bracelet to Mu Xiaofeng's hand and told Mu Xiaofeng that this bracelet is the ancestral bracelet of their Aya family, the bracelet can sense the power of all weapons, and his father can easily make perfect weapons with this bracelet, and each piece of iron needs to be knocked several times to be very clear.
Aya's father also knew that he might be unlucky when he went to Bai Yitianfu, so he left this iron ring to Aya, and Aya was going to give this heirloom to Mu Xiaofeng now.
After Mu Xiaofeng took the iron ring, he carefully received the iron ring into his spatial infinite belt, and then the three of them sent Aya out of the city and returned to Bai Yitian's mansion.
And Luo Jianxin had just arrived at the palace of the overlord after the incident, she relayed Bai Yitian's request to the overlord, and the overlord was furious after hearing this, he slapped his throne hard, stood up and scolded: "Bai Yitian, this guy! How dare he open his mouth so wide, has he forgotten that he is my courtier? ”
"The overlord is angry, although Bai Yitian is excessive, but he does control all the weapons manufacturing of our overlord, if we don't meet his requirements, our soldiers will go into battle without blades and armor, how can this be a blood spirit immortal." Luo Jianxin tried his best to appease the overlord's emotions at this time.
"Then it's better not to send troops."
"The overlord is absolutely impossible, if we don't send troops, we will lose our trust in front of other countries, and who will want to deal with the hegemon at that time."
The overlord smiled slightly when he heard Luo Jianxin say this, he slowly walked to Luo Jianxin's side and bowed slightly, which made Luo Jianxin shocked, although this overlord was suppressed by himself on weekdays, but he had never made such a big gift.
At this time, the overlord slowly said to Luo Jianxin: "Lord Luo, if you say that all countries don't communicate with our overlord, I think your business will not be easy to do in the future, right?" Since Lord Luo has accumulated so much wealth, it is time to repay the country, why don't you let Lord Luo pay these 80 million gold coins? When the time comes, I will definitely preach the merits of Lord Luo to everyone. ”
After the overlord said this, it made it difficult for Luo Jianxin to ride the tiger, although he was unwilling to pay so much money, but if he didn't pay now, the overlord would not send troops, and it would be himself who would be hurt at that time.
Luo Jianxin could only pretend to squeeze out a smile at this time, and quickly knelt down in front of the overlord, she said that she was willing to give out the 80 million gold coins, and Luo Jianxin's heart was dripping blood when she said this.
Seeing that Luo Jianxin agreed, the overlord immediately laughed a few times, and then he sat back on his throne, and he handed Luo Jianxin a talisman, which could mobilize 50,000 soldiers and horses. The overlord wanted Luo Jianxin to go to Divine Sword City with 80 million gold coins and these 50,000 soldiers and horses, and when everything was ready, he could start a war with the blood spirit immortal.
Luo Jianxin returned to her home after receiving the talisman, and she asked the guards to count 80 million gold coins and load them into the carriage, which was a large amount, and the carriage alone was loaded with dozens of vehicles. Then Luo Jianxin set off for Shenjian City with 80 million gold coins and 50,000 troops.
And Mu Xiaofeng has been holding back the fire in his belly in Excalibur City these days, no matter how he looks at Bai Yitian, it is not pleasing to the eye, which makes Bai Yitian a little strange, I don't know where he offended Mu Xiaofeng.
Mu Xiaofeng now just wants to wait for Luo Jianxin to come back, as long as Luo Jianxin arrives, he will unite with her to go to Bai Yitian to complain.
Another three days passed, and at this time, Luo Jianxin arrived at Divine Sword City with a carriage full of gold coins and an army.
As soon as Mu Xiaofeng heard the news, he immediately rushed out of the city gate, and he went to find Luo Jianxin in person.
"Lord Luo, I have something important to discuss with you."
Seeing that Mu Xiaofeng was so polite, Luo Jianxin knew that this guy must have nothing good, so Luo Jianxin didn't agree first, but just used the excuse that he still had a major military matter to discuss with Bai Yitian, and then listen to Mu Xiaofeng after he finished dealing with these things.
After Luo Jianxin finished speaking, he hurriedly walked towards the City Lord's Mansion, and Mu Xiaofeng could only follow behind her.
At this time, after Luo Jianxin arrived in the hall, he asked Mu Xiaofeng to wait outside the door, Mu Xiaofeng was still very curious at this time, why Luo Jianxin didn't let him listen to what they were going to discuss.
Then Mu Xiaofeng thought about it, since Luo Jianxin wanted to participate in this battle against the immortality of the blood spirit by name, it didn't matter if he eavesdropped.
So Mu Xiaofeng tiptoed to the door of the hall and listened carefully to what the two were saying.
At this time, Luo Jianxin nodded slightly after seeing Bai Yitian, and she said: "Lord Bai, the 80 million gold coins you asked for have been gathered, please prepare weapons for Lord Bai, the overlord said that as long as everything is ready, you can set off to attack the blood spirit immortal."
As soon as Bai Yitian heard that the money was in place, he immediately stood up from his seat, walked to Luo Jianxin's side with a smile, and then pinched her shoulder and replied: "It's hard for Lord Luo to run in person, I don't know how many soldiers and horses His Majesty gave Lord Luo this time?"
"Fifty thousand." Luo Jianxin was twisted her body, and then pulled away a little towards Bai Yitian, she didn't want to be touched by this sinister guy.
As soon as Bai Yitian heard that the overlord had given Luo Jianxin 50,000 soldiers and horses, he stretched out his hand towards Luo Jianxin, and he asked Luo Jianxin to hand over the talisman in his hand and become the commander of this army himself.
