Chapter 206 Huowa's Betrayal

Chapter 226 Huowa's Betrayal
The roe deer Cao clasped his fists and said: "I would like to report to the lord, the old minister thinks that the original government functions should be taken over immediately, and the agricultural tax and commercial tax should be levied, one out of ten. Then the city entrance tax and the city exit tax will be collected. Although Yizhou City is small, But it is more than enough to support a team of a thousand people."

"Is there any more?" Widow Chen nodded.

"My lord, it's actually not that difficult to raise money." Fatty Fang bowed and saluted, "The county government has money and grain depots, and they just need to open them up. In addition, the Golden Barracks have been destroyed, and their wealth should be ours. Also, although Yizhou City is small, there are still dozens of big families inside and outside the city, if they are summoned, who would dare not make offerings?"

One prime minister and one general, one civil and one military, one advocates taxation and the other advocates forced donations.

Although the method is a bit simple and rough, it is expected in this era.

Throughout the dynasties, those who did not directly rob were already conscientious bandits.

"That's okay too?" Widow Chen's eyes lit up, and she deliberately leaned towards Fatty Fang.

"A group of people who are greedy for life and afraid of death, why not." Fatty Fang said confidently: "The Jin people did this, the Liao people did this, and the Song people did the same. Of course we can do the same .”

"It makes sense, this is my city, and everything here is mine!" The widow Chen clapped her hands happily, and said with a smile, "You two lovers, come, come, let's discuss the details."

"Yuzhu!" Jiang Xiaobai couldn't stand it anymore, and pulled the widow Chen.

On the first day you entered the city, you tried every means to squeeze the money of the common people. This doesn't seem to be your original intention, does it?
Besides, is it that difficult to raise money?

Although it only takes half a day to enter the city, what Jiang Xiaobai sees is a world full of gold. Here, every brick and tile, every cup and every cup, even if a table and chair are antiques, they can all be found in the future world. In exchange for a lot of money.

You can earn millions, tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions by simply swiping and pulling something.

There are only a few thousand people in the city of Yizhou, and even counting the people in the surrounding villages, there are only a few thousand people. There is no need to collect their taxes, let alone rob them. Jiang Xiaobai can definitely raise them.

"Brother Xiaobai, this is my city!" Widow Chen knew what Jiang Xiaobai was going to say, and immediately pouted and said, "You said it, everything here is up to me."

"But you can't ignore the life and death of the people!" Jiang Xiaobai said: "It's not easy for them to survive in the war-torn era. I guess most people can't eat enough. How can I give you spare money?"

"Brother Xiaobai, you still don't believe me?" Widow Chen dangled Jiang Xiaobai's arm and said, "Don't worry, I graduated from high school, I have done small business, and I know a little bit about political economy. I Guaranteed, within a month, Yizhou City will become prosperous, the people will live and work in peace and contentment, and become the most prosperous and richest metropolis with a radius of hundreds of miles!"

The ambition is not small, but it is just lip service.

Jiang Xiaobai still wanted to persuade him, but the widow Chen secretly pinched Jiang Xiaobai's leg and said, "Brother Xiaobai, you'd better go. You are here, and the civil and military ministers are at a loss. It's too awkward."

What do you mean, are you trying to drive me away?

"Brother, you have a lot of things to do!" The widow Chen said again: "For example, have you found your cheap old man in the west? For example, the guy with the gun in that small building should go back? For example, the one at the West Suburb Passenger Station Lao Pang, hurry up and wait? You don’t care about so many big things, and you don’t have to worry about these little things.”

Jiang Xiaobai got a little angry and said, "I'm here to protect your safety!"

"Don't worry, I'm a god. Anyone who dares to harm me will be struck with a thunderbolt." The widow Chen took out a pistol, slapped it on the table, and said confidently: "With this treasure in hand, don't worry about it." What kind of master is he, Dou Huang Dou Di, all of them are instantly killed."

Although the widow Chen was crazy, her words still made some sense. She wore a stab-resistant suit, held a small pistol, and was surrounded by Huowa and sixty or seventy soldiers to protect her. There would be no major safety problems for the time being.

Unless Fatty Fang rebelled.

But now it seems that although Fatty Fang is not very reliable, he will not turn his face immediately.

More importantly, what the widow Chen just said is obviously not sincere. She clearly knows that the things here can be exchanged for money in the 21st century, but she is enthusiastically discussing taxation and robbery with the roe deer Cao and Fatty Fang. She must have other intentions.

Forget it, let her torment, Jiang Xiaobai really has a lot of things to solve.

As a last resort, Jiang Xiaobai whispered a few words in the widow Chen's ear, mainly telling her that if she was in danger, she should immediately go to the small building more than 100 meters northeast of the county government office to take shelter.

The widow Chen nodded to show that she already knew, and then ordered Huo Wa to send Jiang Xiaobai away.

After going in and out for more than an hour, Fuqian Street changed again.

The corpses piled up under the big flagpole have disappeared, and several government officials are directing more than 100 people to take brooms, dustpans, and buckets to clear the blood on the street.

It is estimated that it will return to normal in a day at most, and no one can see that more than 100 people have died here.

At the end of the steps, when Huowa was about to turn around, she said, "Master, my wife asked me to tell you that she will not act recklessly, let alone bully the people in the city, so you don't have to worry."

Jiang Xiaobai was really not worried about this, the widow Chen's words just now were obviously just to tease those two ancients.

"My wife also asked me to tell you that I want to go to the Presidential Suite of Shengshi International to discuss military affairs at night." Huowa scratched her head and asked in confusion, "Where is Shengshi International, why haven't I heard of it?"

"That's a place in the sky, how could you know that." Jiang Xiaobai walked around Huo Wa and said with a smile, "Unexpectedly, you betrayed Master so soon?"

"How can I?" Huo Wa's body softened immediately, and said: "Master and wife are equally important in my heart."

"Then why are you helping her speak?" Jiang Xiaobai stared deliberately.

Huowa was an honest child. Although he was nervous, he still mustered up his courage and said, "Master, I have been with you for so long, and you haven't taught me a single trick. But my wife is different, she said...the lady said I want Give me the fire-breathing artifact."

Huo Wa betrayed him with just a pistol, Jiang Xiaobai could only sigh silently.

In terms of playing tricks, Jiang Xiaobai is really no match for the widow Chen.

Fortunately, she is only the deputy head, and her largest range of activities is only in Yizhou, so let her go.

"Go back and protect the teacher, or come and see me!" Jiang Xiaobai ordered, and strode towards the small building.

The street was deserted, and there could be no guests in the small building. The old bustard squatted behind the door with a sad face, observing everything outside the door in horror.

The moment Jiang Xiaobai pushed open the door, the old bustard knelt down, not even daring to say a word.

Jiang Xiaobai went straight to the second floor, pushed open the door of Pan Jinlian's room, and found Feng Tianbao holding a gun, sitting on the window sill and shaking his head at Jiang Xiaobai.

Jiang Xiaobai walked over and said with a smile, "Isn't it exciting?"

"It's exciting, but..." Feng Tianbao sighed suddenly, jumped off the window sill, pointed to the window and said, "You... you better go and have a look, I can't solve the problem over there."
