Chapter 447 The Death of the Village Chief
"Wait." Huang Qi stopped Zhou Yu.

When Zhou Yu heard this, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then he turned around and asked, "What else can the village chief do?"

Huang Qi paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, and said with a slight sigh: "I went to the town a few days ago because the town official asked us village chiefs to go to a meeting. It was about taxation."

Zhou Yu didn't speak, just watched with cold eyes, wanting to hear what the old guy had to say.

Huang Qi walked around behind Zhou Yu and continued:

"After the meeting, the town official explained to everyone that because the demand for medicinal herbs in various places has increased significantly, and the supply is insufficient, in order to balance, the taxes of the pharmacies in each village have to be increased."

"Village Chief, can you just tell me how much it will cost?" Zhou Yu was too lazy to argue with this kind of person.

It's just that Huang Qi's face turned serious when he heard it, "What do you mean how much money I want? It's a tax."

Zhou Yu picked out his ears, "How much do you want?"

"You!" Huang Qi was furious, why did this kid speak so bluntly?He stared at Zhou Yu with a gloomy face: "Increase to 50.00%."

When Zhou Yu heard it, he was taken aback for a moment, thinking he had heard it wrong, "Village Chief, you mean it has increased by 30.00% five?"

"That's right. It used to be 15.00%, but now it's increased by 35%. This is the town official's decision." Huang Qi said solemnly.

"Are you trying to grab money? If you earn a hundred gold coins, you will receive fifty. You might as well say that we will share the money with you equally."

"Zhou Yu, what do you mean?" Huang Qi's face became more and more gloomy. "Don't you want to cooperate? Let me tell you, the other two pharmacies in the village have already been handed over. Do you think you will be spared?"

Sister, the bastard town official decided that unless this town official can cover the sky with one hand and has a lot to do with the people in the main city, otherwise this kind of death-seeking decision is absolutely impossible to make.

Isn't this old guy jealous of how much money he has made recently, and because he knows the details of "Green", that's why he changed his ways to make money.

Even if he went to the other two pharmacies to inquire, it must be the old guy who communicated with those two.

So there is no need to ask.Besides, in this village, who would dare to have trouble with the village chief?But this Huang Qi can be regarded as provoking the wrong person.

"Then the village head is going to force it?" Zhou Yu suddenly became indifferent.

"Taxation belongs to the state, and every business owner has an obligation." Huang Qi said with a calm face.

Zhou Yu asked calmly, "Well, how much will you pay this time?"

Huang Qi smiled at this moment, and his complacent expression flashed away, "This time, you don't need much, just 1000 gold coins. Next time, you need to check your account books before collecting taxes."

Zhou Yu's eyes flashed with murderous intent, "Okay, but I don't have that much money with me, wait until I come back from town?"

Huang Qi nodded, "It's okay, as long as you can pay taxes, it's not a problem to delay it for a day or two."

Zhou Yu glanced at Huang Qi, smiled slightly, then turned and left.

When Huang Qi met Zhou Yu's eyes at the end, he didn't notice the killing intent in Zhou Yu's eyes, so he was still immersed in his plan to succeed.

After leaving the village chief's house, Zhou Yu drove the carriage directly to the town, and seemed to forget about the incident at the village chief's house just now.

"Yo, the pharmacist is going out?"

"Yeah, I'm going to town, and I don't think I'll be back until two days later."

"Pharmacist, when did you come back? Why are you going out again?"

"Oh, I came back last night and I'm going to do some shopping today."

On the way, Zhou Yu greeted the passers-by one after another.At the same time, the car slowly left the village and headed for the road.

Noon, more than 1 o'clock.

Although Kaba Village is large, there are still many areas that have not been developed, so the people who live in it are biased towards one corner.

When the population increases, the land will slowly develop until the [-] square kilometers of land is fully occupied.

10,000+ people are distributed in one corner, which is relatively dense.The sun was so hot that there were hardly any people to be seen on the road.

In the east of the village, at Huang Qi's house, a family of four are having lunch.

After Huang Qi's two children finished eating and left, only the two parents-in-law were left talking.

"I said I'm not dead, I'm in a good mood, why, did you get the money again?"

Huang Qi's wife is also a "heavyweight" person. She is not tall vertically, but the trend of horizontal development is getting bigger and bigger. Now she weighs two to three hundred catties.

Huang Qi looked at the person opposite, a trace of disgust flashed under his eyelids, but it happened to be a shrewd wife, and he had nothing to do, and there were only so many residents in the village, so those who wanted to have an affair couldn't find it in the village, they could only find it in the town. There are two little ones on the house, and they go to town from time to time.

"It's nothing. I got 350 gold coins from that idiot Green in the morning. Counting the potion I gave my son last time, I earned 100 gold coins. The time is only a month. I'll find a way when he comes back from town." take money."

The money in the family is basically watched by his wife.But he will not be so stupid as to give all the money, so he also has his own small coffers, and what his wife takes is just a small amount.

So the 350 gold coins were given to her wife.

"Well, that's not bad. Where's the money? Take it out." Huang Qi's wife's eyes widened, and the flesh on her face trembled.

"Here." Huang Qi put a piece of meat into his mouth with the chopsticks in his hand, and at the same time threw the bag on the table.

However, the next moment, the legs of his chair swayed and bent suddenly, Huang Qi exclaimed suddenly, and fell to the ground on his back, forgetting to take out the chopsticks in his mouth.

With chopsticks in his mouth, he hurriedly put his hands back on the ground.

But the next moment, the moment he fell to the ground, the pair of metal chopsticks he was holding suddenly moved, quickly penetrated his mouth, passed through the back of his head, and caught it by the door behind his head.

Huang Qi's eyes were wide open, and his hands were already powerless to fall before he raised them.

When Huang Qi's wife saw her husband suddenly fall to the ground, she also exclaimed and was taken aback, but because of her weight, she could only open her hands and couldn't get up quickly.

However, when he got up and saw the scene of his husband's brain being pierced by chopsticks, he was shocked and screamed.

In a dark corner, a barely audible hum sounded, and then fell silent again.

At around nine o'clock in the evening, Zhou Yu flew quickly by himself, and finally arrived in the town.The carriage was put into the space by him, but he didn't take it out.

When we arrived in town, we first found a place to book a room.

After leaving the hotel, he walked to the place where the town official's mansion was located.

Houses for sale in towns or villages are basically listed at the village and town officials. If you want to buy, you can go there to inquire.

The village and town officials only need to charge some handling fees.Of course, if it is ownerless, the money belongs to the village officials.Just like Karami's dispensary, the money from the sale goes into the pocket of the village chief.

All the way to the town hall.

This place is huge, covering an area of ​​no less than ten acres.This may seem huge, but when considered in the entire town, it is also an inconspicuous size.

After asking a lot, I went to one of the offices inside.

I didn't see anyone outside, but after entering, there were five or sixty people gathered in the office of two to three hundred square meters.

There are quite a lot of these people.
