"Lao Liu, let me tell you, this is impossible, if we want to pay the double tax for them, I think you are old and confused. Huo Nianhua said loudly.

"Liu family master, indeed, why do we want us to pay that part of the tax for a few of them, since they have all become the heads of the family, it means that they already have the strength to take on their family's business, if they don't have this strength, it will be swallowed up by others sooner or later. Tu Ci echoed on the side.

"Why not? It's like bringing us newcomers, right? What's more, the Jin family's weaving and spinning in Bian Qu Town was burned by the Huo family's relatives, and they didn't feel so distressed when they saw him, oh, wrong, it was a distant relative. As for the head of the Huo family, it is even more powerful, obviously it is his distant relative, and he has to visit the head of the Jin family in person to apologize. Wang Yufan said.

I saw Jiang Haihan use the corner of his hand and mouth, but said in a volume a little louder than the normal volume: "Wang family master, then do you know how much money he spent on the apology?"

"Oh, that's a lot. A whole thousand taels of ingots. Wang Yufan raised a finger and gestured.

The fat man looked at Wang Yufan and Jiang Haihan on the side, chatting sentence by sentence, and then looked at Jin Chengguang and Huo Nianhua next to him, one gritted his teeth, and the other was so angry that his whole body was trembling.

And at this moment, He Xinmin gestured again, and the volume increased a little: "Let's stop for a while, there is still a document here, everyone can read it first, and you can know why you want to increase your taxes." Makutaka, hand over the information. ”

After everyone took the second information sent by the curtain eagle, their expressions became more solemn, and the fat man quietly came up, and in an instant, he finally knew why the expressions on everyone's faces became solemn.

The document reads: The national teacher watches the stars at night, and the moonlight is blood red, which is a bad omen. It is estimated that in the next time, there will be a catastrophe coming, and I hope that the major families in each city will make a modest contribution to deal with the catastrophe.

It's just a line or two, but it reveals a lot of information. After He Xinmin saw the expressions of the masters, he said, "So, this is also the reason why everyone pays so much tax. If the real catastrophe comes, I am afraid that I will lose even more in the future. In this way, the document also said that if you do your part, if twice is too much, then double, this time is not too much. ”

"If there is a reason to speak of it, it makes sense for us to contribute a little more. If it is doubled, our Wang family will donate a little more materials to the front line and get ready. Wang Yufan said.

"It's the same with my Mu family. ”

"So is my Jiang family. ”

"I don't care. ”

"Okay, thank you for your support, then there are still the Jin family master, the Tu family master, the Huo family master, how about the three of them. These young people have set an example. He Xinmin looked at the three of them and said.

"Since the country is in trouble, it must pay a force, and I am also in favor. Jin Chengguang said, doubling is at least better than tripling.

"I'm definitely in favor of contributing to the country. Huo Nianhua said so righteously that Wang Yufan didn't know how many times he vomited in his heart. Tu Ci also agreed, and just like that, the meeting ended with a few words per person later.

As soon as she walked out of the door, Mu Qingfeng was stopped by someone, and the person who stopped her was the daughter of the head of the Liu family, Liu Qiangrose. She was wearing lilac clothes, a slightly chubby face, and her pair of swords-like hairstyles, and she really couldn't help but want to pinch her face. She is also said to be in her early thirties. But now no one knows her strength.

Liu Qiangrose glanced at the fat man. The fat man immediately understood, and hurriedly said, "You guys talk first, I'll wait for you outside." ”

Mu Qingfeng looked at the surroundings and saw that there was no one to command, and immediately took Liu Qiangrose's hand: "Sister Rose, when did you come back?" ”

"It's also recently, I've also listened to the things of your family and the Wang family. In the past few years, has my old man helped you? "When Liu Qiangrose was young, she went to the Mu family to play all day long, and the relationship was still very good at that time, but after Liu Qiangrose went to other places to practice, the Liu family rarely communicated with the Mu family. Only when Liu Qiangrose came back occasionally did she go to Mu's house to play.

Mu Qingfeng shook her head, Liu Qiangrose looked at this little girl, becoming the head of the family, supporting the whole family, very distressed, touched Mu Qingfeng's head and said: "It's okay, you won't be alone in the future, sister is back, if there is anything in the future, come to sister, sister will definitely help you solve it." As for the old man in my house, ignore him. Let's go, let's go back first, Yuhao is still waiting for you outside. ”

After the fat man sent Mu Qingfeng home, he also returned home, most of the people in the house went back to the room to rest, and only Wang Li, Wang Yufan and the fat man were left in the hall.

"What do you think this catastrophe will be?" asked the fat man.

"I guess someone from the Demon Realm attacked it. There have been rumors before that someone in the demon world has escaped, so if you want to capture that person back, maybe start a war by the way. There must be one or two reasons. Wang Li held his head in his hands and looked at the roof beams and said. "According to what you said, He Xinmin still has a bit of a plan. ”

"Indeed, tonight, everyone has been calculated by him, and if he had shown us the document of the Great Tribulation first, we might not have discussed the question of raising taxes so violently. Wang Yufan said.

"If he hadn't done that, how would he have seen what you family masters were thinking, and he now knew you a little bit better. The fat man said.

"But to be honest, Huo Nianhua also has to take precautions, although what he did before has been mixed up, but I feel that he will have the means to use it later, and the city government is still very deep. Wang Li got up and added a little tea to their cups.

"Beware, beware, what is the matter you said before?" the fat man asked Wang Yufan and Wang Li, because they said in the letter that this matter had to be completed by him.

"That's right, eldest cousin, because of the two tricks played by the Huo family before, we have to stay in the city and can't move casually. Then, there was something wrong with Brother Wang Ye's side, and his temper was notoriously good. Wang Li spread his hands out to express his chagrin.

"What's the matter, our two smart people can't solve it. ”

"It's just that there was a little conflict with the people over there, you go and take a look, big brother, anyway, Brother Wang Ye only listens to you. Wang Yufan yawned and said.

"Okay, okay, after I go to Qingya Pavilion tomorrow, I'll go to Brother Wang Ye to have a look. It's getting late, let's go back to our rooms and rest. ”

The next morning, the fat man came to Qing Ya Pavilion and couldn't help but sigh, he hadn't been here for a long time, and he still missed it a little. But looking at it, there are no people, according to the past at this time, there should be a lot of people to drink morning tea. I went in and asked Xiaogui to find out that after the proprietress left here, it had been the two brothers and Zitong who had been taking care of it here, but a few days ago, Lian Qian came, saying that he was going back to the Liantian Continent, and asked Zitong if he wanted to follow him, and Zitong agreed. Moreover, the three children had to go to school in the morning, and only the two brothers were there, so they were too busy to come, so they delayed the opening of the door a little later.

Hearing this, the fat man was a little stunned, and quickly interrupted Xiaogui's words: "Wait, wait, this, this is unreasonable." What do you mean by asking Zitong, and Zitong will leave with someone immediately? Xiaogui, are you telling a story?"

Xiaogui was also helpless, and said with a wry smile: "You don't know anything, Brother Yuhao." At that time, when the proprietress left, she said that if Zitong wanted to leave, let her go. said that her greatest wish now is to become an excellent forger, so that her grandfather can see in the spirit of heaven. ”

After listening to this, the fat man just nodded, and didn't say anything, everyone's pursuit is different, and it can't be changed just because Chen Qixian disappeared. Or conversely, it is because Chen Qixian disappeared that he chose to leave and change himself. When you are in trouble, I will have the strength to help you.

Subsequently, the fat man helped the big money and Xiaogui in Qing Yage, and then turned around and set off to go to Brother Wang Ye. The tea farm managed by Brother Wang Ye was near the village that participated in the second round of the Chosen Heaven Competition, and Wang Ye had a little quarrel with the local villagers.

After a long time, the fat man rushed to the tea farm managed by Wang Ye. After Wang Ye saw the fat man coming, he gave the fat man a big hug as soon as he ran up: "Hahaha, Yuhao, let's go and drink a cup of tea first." ”

The fat man couldn't refuse Wang Ye's hospitality. was dragged into the house by Wang Ye in this way, Wang Ye directly took out a pot of hot water, took out a bag of tea from the cabinet, and said excitedly: "Come on, come on, try this new tea, my new creation." It should be possible to break through the blue and quiet, so try it quickly. ”

Hearing what Wang Ye said, he probably knew the ins and outs of the whole thing. Wang Ye is a person who is born with an emergency, and it is easy to conflict with others. However, he is particularly fond of tea and researches new varieties. Bi Youqing was researched by his grandfather, and his grandfather's brother was the fat man's grandfather.

The fat man looked at his movements when making tea, and the movements were simply smooth, clean and neat. Soon, the tea was brewed, and the fat man picked up the cup of tea that Wang Ye poured for him, the color was lighter than the color of Bi Youqing, but the taste was very different, if you said that when you drank Bi Youqing, there was a quiet and comfortable feeling, which was just the opposite, and this feeling was like the comfort that a wind blew to you after you finished exercising. In this way, the Wang family's tea industry has one more way out.

After the fat man tasted it, he said to Wang Ye: "Brother Wang Ye, this tea is indeed very good, and it can also be compared to your grandfather's blue and quiet." Maybe it's because of this that you got into conflict with the villagers here, right? ”

Wang Ye said dissatisfiedly: "This creation of new varieties must be to increase the land, and it's not that they don't give them money, and I don't know why they have such a big temper." ”

The fat man smiled and said, "I think you are in a hurry with others first, so let's do it, I'll stay here for a few days and help you get it done." ”

After Wang Ye heard the fat man say that he would help him get it done, he was very happy, and hurriedly asked the fat man to drink a few more glasses to see what was lacking, and asked the fat man to rush out immediately.

In this way, the fat man stayed here in the tea field for a few days, helped Wang Ye solve the conflict with the local villagers, and also invited some villagers to work as workers. After the fat man saw that these things were resolved, he planned to go to Qing Ya Ge to help.

On the way back, he stopped at the place where Chen Qixian hunted the fire spirit crow, since He Xinmin told them that there was a catastrophe, everyone kept to themselves, and there were no other small actions, he felt that this kind of life could be said to be ordinary, there was no intrigue, no defense, and there was still time to study new tea varieties here, this kind of life he enjoyed.

But he didn't know that during the time he stayed, a pale white circle of light slowly enveloped him, gradually becoming smaller, forming a coin-sized sign, carved into his arm, and gradually disappearing. It is for this reason that the Great Tribulation will come sooner.
