Repeating a long list of names, Thorin looked puzzled.

"I know all the best mechanical masters in this world, but I've never heard of this name, where is he, I want to visit him in person when I have a chance, you'd better introduce him for me. ”

"This guy has gone to heaven. ”

Downing thought so and lied.

"No problem, I'll introduce you to him when I get a chance. ”

Looking at Thorin in front of him, he hesitated slightly, took out a bullet from his bosom and handed it over.

"Can you copy this?"

Thorin took the bullet and weighed it in his hand.

"Of course, as long as it's ironwork, I can copy it, and nothing can stump me. ”

Tang Ning introduced with a wry smile.

"It's made of metal on the surface, but there's some powder on the inside, and it's not solid. ”

Thorin was interested in research.

"How long will it take. ”

The urgency for revenge made Tangning not wait too long, and then he had to find the survivors who had returned here after being rejected by the underground civilization.

Suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps, and someone pushed open the tent and came in, fierce.

Thorin and Master Merlin didn't look very good, and they frowned as they looked at the three people who entered the door.

These people could tell from their swaggering actions that they were not Thorin's customers, and Downing looked at the three people who entered the door, all dressed in military uniforms.

The leader of the three scanned the tent and walked straight up to Thorin and stretched out his hand.

"5 dentes. ”

Thorin turned around and rummaged through a nearby cupboard, returning with five Dantes in his hand.

The little leader counted the five Dantes over and over a few times, put them in his arms with satisfaction, and then looked at Master Merlin at the mouth of the tent with a dissatisfied tone.

"Master Merlin, your brother Romero has not paid his taxes for three months in a row, do you have any news of him. ”

Master Merlin shook his head and shrugged.

"Now that I've cut ties with him, he's no longer my brother, and it doesn't matter to me whether he pays taxes or not. ”

The little leader smiled evilly, turned back and signaled to the two people behind him, one of them lifted the tent, and two men in uniform pressed Romero to the ground at the entrance of the tent, and Romero's mouth was gagged, and his face turned red.

"I just happened to meet him at the door, and according to the rules set by the leader, he will be banished. ”

Master Merlin's expression became nervous, staring at Romero, who was pressed to the ground and unable to move, and his mouth was gagged, and then got up after a moment.

"Well, how much money, I'll pay for him. ”

"Five dents a month, three months, a total of fifteen, but there are late fees, that is, fines, a total of 240 dentes, and now 200 dents have been found on him, and there are still 40 dents to pay. ”

After a pause, the man changed his words.

"By the way, and your 5 dent tax, a total of 45 dent. ”

"The late payment penalty for 15 dents reached 225 dents. ”

Downing couldn't believe his ears, and ...... Who are these people and why they can collect taxes, it stands to reason that this is now a civilian refuge and should not be charged.

Tang Ning was not the only one who was dissatisfied with the high late fee, and Master Merlin frowned.

"Are you sure that much is needed for late fees?"

The little leader raised his head and looked triumphant.

"Of course, this is a rule made by the leader himself, and if you doubt the reasonableness of the rule, you can talk to him. ”

For Master Merlin, 45 Dent was not a small number, and he looked embarrassed and whispered a plea.

"I don't have enough money, can I hold off and I'll pay his arrears next month. ”

The little boss sneered.

"If everyone owes debts, others will follow suit, which is not conducive to the implementation of the tax law, in my opinion, you don't have to pay the arrears for him, so that the younger brother who is not angry might as well throw it out, which can save a lot of trouble. ”

It can be seen that he is very dissatisfied with Romero, but he still can't let go of this family relationship in his heart.

Downing stepped forward, took 45 Dant out of his money bag and handed it over.

"I'll pay their taxes. ”

The little leader looked at the 45 dent handed over, looked at the young man who had been there all along, and after a while, snatched the 45 dent, counted it a few times, put it in his pocket, and let out a cruel grin.

"It's a bit of a face, I've never seen you. ”

Master Merlin and Thorin were about to speak, but Downing had already responded in advance.

"I'm just here. ”

The little leader smiled and pulled a piece of parchment from his bosom.

"It's the rule for new residents, take a look and pay if you don't have any objections, if you don't have money you will be arrested and thrown out of the dark market at night. ”

Tang Ning hesitated for a moment, and took the parchment paper, on which a lot of collection items were written.

For example, new fees, security fees, cleaning costs, and wear and tear fees, etc., in short, there are as many as a dozen charging items, and the total amount added up to the first payment for newcomers to enter here is 340 dents.

The hero didn't suffer the loss in front of him, and he didn't understand the situation, Tang Ning took out the money bag, counted 340 Dantes and handed it to the other party.

The little leader was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses, snatched the money and counted it, and put it in his arms.

"It turned out to be a rich man, welcome you to the new world, and prepare 5 dents a month in the future, we are very welcome here for rich people like you. ”

After that, he turned around and signaled, and the two uniformed attendants holding Romero outside the tent immediately let go.

Romero moved his muscles and removed the blockage from his mouth, stopping the little boss who was about to leave.

"According to the newcomer tax he paid, he can get a shop. ”

The little boss stared at Romero, and after a moment took a piece of parchment from his bosom and threw it on the ground, before leaving with his entourage.

The tent fell silent, and Romero looked embarrassed when he saw Thorin, and raised his hand to signal.

Thorin shook his head, turned and continued to study the pistol bullet he had just gotten.

Tang Ning asked with confusion.

"Who are they?"

Master Merlin sat down in his chair in a dejected tone.

"It was Cruzeiro, owner of the gold and gemstone badges, who fled here when the end of the world was abandoned by the king, and over time gathered a mob of taken in, formed a provisional government, and declared his rule over the place. ”

Downing was a little confused.

"Didn't you resist?"

Romero relented at this time, picked up the parchment on the ground and handed it to Downing, and continued to explain.

"Of course, all the supernatural power owners here have joined forces to negotiate, this is a temporary shelter, everyone has the right to take refuge here, and this place belongs to the Magical Society, and it is not their turn to make the rules anyway. ”

Cruzeiro initially agreed, canceling his plan for a provisional government, but when some of the Magical Society's supernatural power owners went out in search of survival resources, he led people to close the entrance to this place, and most of the supernatural power owners were locked outside, and he became the strongest supernatural power owner here, and no one was his opponent, so his rebellion was victorious and he became the ruler of the place. ”

He opened the entrance a month later, and the owners of the supernatural powers were nowhere to be seen, and this month he had gathered a lot of thugs, and no one dared to resist him, so he could only accept the facts. ”

Downing had wanted to ask that most of the people here were being exploited, and that if they were united, it would not be a problem to deal with the thugs and Cruzeiro, but he eventually dismissed the idea.

If the disadvantaged could easily unite together, there would not have been so much tyranny from ancient times to the present day.
