Chapter 1222: Mantuo City (2)
At this time, there was also a sound of praise at the bottom, the wine opened people's arms, a glass of wine was in the stomach, the aura was stirring, everyone's hearts were lively, and the atmosphere became much warmer!
Ji Mo was secretly happy in his heart, it seems that he invested money to buy Xingyun wine today, and it is really worth the money!
Now Mantuo City has almost been controlled by Fagan, and he, the city lord, is extremely aggrieved, almost his puppet, looting money and resources for him, let him drive, and desperately please him, otherwise, if you are not careful, you may cause a big disaster.
Since Mantuo City has been looted a lot by Fagan, the family background of all the forces in the city is not very thick, and there has been an insect plague recently, seeing that the date for the payment of this year's protection fee is approaching, and it is almost impossible for all the forces in the city to pay this money in full, which makes Ji Mo worried!
If you can't collect all this money, I'm afraid that Fagang will still find your head at that time, and give a small charge of incompetence, and be caught by him to insult a big thing, I heard that although this Fagang Chanzun is extremely handsome, he is a violent person, he likes to strip people naked and tie them up, whip and abuse, and ride and smoke all over the house, Ji Mo saw Fagang Chanzun staring at him several times, and his face showed an ambiguous and playful color, and his heart couldn't help but shrink!
If you really get toyed with by Fagan like this once, then you might as well die!
Or Master Lin Hai came up with an idea, first of all, regardless of whether those forces in the city can pay the protection fee, their life or death actually has little to do with Ji Mo, the most important thing is to please Fagang, as long as he gets his favor, even if he can't collect the protection fee, he can put the responsibility on them.
As soon as Ji Mo heard that it was good, he immediately organized this feast and spent a lot of money to buy Star Luck Wine.
Seeing that Fagang was in a good mood at this moment, Ji Mo filled another glass of wine and saluted Fagon: "I heard that Lord Gangzun has recently conquered Titian City and Baise City, and his power has expanded strongly, which is really gratifying!
Fagan squinted his eyes at him, nodded slightly, and drank the wine glass, but in his heart he was thinking about the scene of Ji Mo's abuse, which made him a little excited just thinking about it.
Although Ji Mo is a little fat, he is not false, he is also quite thoughtful, he is still a Nirvana realm, he must be tortured, and he is much better than those shrimp soldiers and crabs under his command!
However, Ji Mo is a city lord after all, and he is still doing things for himself, and I heard that he also has the support of the Venerable behind him, otherwise he would not be able to become the lord of a city.
But the Venerable One has not yet found out who Fagang is, and if he can't afford to offend, then of course he won't dare to abuse him.
Since Fagang's own cultivation is only in the early stage of Zen Venerable, he generally does not dare to offend other Venerables, but he dares to come to Mantuo City to claim the king, naturally because he has Zhiqing's support behind him, so he is not afraid of the people behind Ji Mo coming to the door.
Therefore, after Fagan came to Mantuo City, he was quite polite to Ji Mo, although he let him do things for himself, but on the surface he still respected him quite a lot, of course, the careful thought of abusing him was also put away by Fagan.
At this time, when the people below heard that Fagan had conquered two more great cities, they were a little shocked, and they all toasted and congratulated him, and their mouths were full of flattery.
However, these people came to this banquet today with a purpose, and seeing that Fagang was in a good mood, a middle-aged monk in a yellow robe said: "Lord Gangzun, juniors, please save us!!
"What's the matter?!" Fagan said with a smile as he put down his glass.
"My lord, the area around Mantuo City was plagued by demon locusts not long ago, and almost all the spiritual fields were lost, and those of us who are in charge not only cannot receive the rent, but also have to distribute seeds and spiritual tools to the people who rent the land, so that they can re-sow seeds, and the loss is huge! Seeing that the day of paying the protection fee is coming, where can we afford it now? I wonder if the adults can forgive some time, or reduce some of it, so as to benefit the people's livelihood?!"
"Yes, yes, my lord is the wisest!"
"It's really hard right now!"
"Alas, we can't even afford meat!"
"Adults are our Zen ancestors, and they will definitely care about our livelihood!"
“......”
Someone started the way, and there were many people with considerable virtue who immediately followed up.
The more Fagang Chanzun listened, the more his face sank, and he was about to speak, when he suddenly realized that his hand grabbed the void, only to see a letter in his hand, and he sensed it slightly, and found that it was Zhiqing who asked him to suspend the expansion, first keep the situation stable, and let him return to the temple to help during this time, it is best to catch Zhida's clone and take it back!
After pondering for a while, he spoke: "City Lord Ji, it seems that today's banquet is foreshadowing!"
Ji Mo was stunned for a moment, understood, and hurriedly said: "Lord Fagang, the situation this year is indeed a little difficult, and it is not easy for them, but I will definitely help the adults urge them to pay protection money!"
"Oh, are you sure?! You see that they are crying and crying one by one, and they are miserable, and I am afraid that if I slaughter them, I will not be able to cut a few catties of meat. ”
"It's... Sure, it's a little small, but I'll definitely do my best! I can collect as much as I can!" Ji Mo said stiffly.
"Haha, Lord Ji, in my opinion, what you say seems to be perfunctory to me, what can be collected and how much? Isn't this clear, will it not be able to be collected?!
"This... This..."Ji Mo's face turned red and he snorted.
Fagang Chanzun looked at Ji Mo meaningfully, and the careful thought in his heart flooded again, so he smiled and said: "Lord Ji, the deity can promise them to pay late, and even reduce the protection fee for one year, in addition, you can also be pardoned for the crime of incompetence, but..."
"But what?!" Ji Mo asked urgently.
"You have to promise to stay with me for one night, you don't have to ask me what I'm going to do, just promise that you'll listen to me!" said Fagang Zenzun with a smile.
"This..."Ji Mo's heart trembled!
It's coming, it's coming, it's coming after all!
Ji Mo naturally knew the meaning of Fagan's words, if he really stayed with him for one night and promised to do what he said, he would definitely be abused by this Fagan...
"Haha, City Lord Ji, the deity gives you three days to think about it, if you don't come to my palace after three days, then what I said just now will be counted as my words, come, drink and drink!!"
Fagang Zenzun raised his wine glass and drank with everyone, looking very close to the people!
After drinking the Xingyun wine, Fagang Chanzun found an excuse, left early, and left...
The City Lord's Mansion suddenly fell into silence!
"City Lord, you want to save us!" said the yellow-robed monk again.
"Yes, city lord, you can't die without help!"
"City Lord, isn't it just to accompany him for one night, I heard that it's quite exciting!"
"Yes, yes, yes, if the city lord tastes the sweetness, maybe he will like it!"
"That's for sure, I've tried..."
"It's really! I'm going to be abused every now and then!"
"Wow..."
The more these people talked, the more outrageous they became, and Ji Mo's white and fat face turned red.
Ji Mo got up and shouted, "Shut up! You are talking lightly! Then you go to Lord Gangzun by yourself, isn't it just to accompany him for one night? You can save a lot of money!"
Everyone was stunned and looked at each other.
The yellow-robed monk rolled his eyes and said cautiously: "City Lord, Lord Gangzun takes a fancy to you, not us, besides, if we go, then the crime of the city host's ineffectiveness will still not be able to escape?"
"This..."Ji Mo was stunned when he heard this, thinking that this was indeed the case.
If you go now, the main thing is to exonerate yourself and not to help these people, but according to Fagor, these people will also benefit from going by yourself.
Do you have to go?!
"City Lord, it's really not good, why don't you ask the Venerable One behind you to help?" the yellow-robed monk reminded.
"The Venerable? I've been out and about late..."Ji Mo was stunned and smiled bitterly in his heart.
That Venerable was actually made up by himself in order to make people feel like they had a backstage background so that they could keep the others at bay...
It seems that this catastrophe cannot be avoided...
When Ji Mo thought of this, his face couldn't help but be gloomy!
Master Lin Hai looked helpless on the side, knowing that Ji Mo must be abused this time, but he had a good brain, and said: "The city lord went to the appointment for everyone, for the people in the city, you must at least show something! If the city lord goes, your protection fee can be saved, now, in order to thank the city lord, each of you must offer a sum of money, otherwise, the city lord will not let Fagang Chanzun reduce your fees!"
When the yellow-robed monk heard this, he hurriedly said, "This is nature! The city lord sacrificed his life for us, and with this heart, I will be grateful to him!"
"Yes, I'm willing to give the city lord a sum of money to compensate!"
"Yes!
"City Lord, please rest assured, someone will send someone to send it soon!"
"Yes, the city lord is worthy of being our city lord! Everyone will follow you in the future!!
“......”
These people are more elves than one elf, when it comes to this, Ji Mo can't even think about it, he is burdened with so many people's love and money, as the lord of a city, he has an unshirkable responsibility!
Masochistic when it's time to be masochistic!
Ji Mo snorted angrily, flicked his sleeves, and turned inside!
Leaving a large crowd stunned.
"What are you doing in a daze? Why don't you hurry up and prepare the money?!" Lin Hai shouted.
"yes!"
Everyone suddenly realized, and soon became birds and beasts...
"City Lord, get rich!!Get rich!!"
Lin Hai rushed into Ji Mo's room like a gust of wind, shouting in his mouth.
"Fortune, what's going on?!" Ji Mo was preoccupied, and said strangely when he heard it.
"Oh, city lord, the money sent by those forces is countless, and I can't even look at it!"
"Really?!" Ji Mo was stunned.
"It's true! City Lord, come with me to see!"
The two of them soon came outside, and sure enough, they saw that the open space in the house was full of boxes, and the lids of the boxes were opened, blooming with a shining aura, and it could be seen that there were treasures inside...
