Quick Transmigration's Extraordinary Routine

Chapter 181 I am a dragon (23)

"Every person who enters the city pays 1 silver coin." The gatekeeper said loudly to those in line.

The people in the queue were noisy. They used to pay 10 copper coins, but now they have to charge 1 silver coin.

A courageous person said, "Why do you charge so much? Isn't it all 10 copper coins?"

The soldiers looked at them coldly, "The city lord stipulated that one silver coin per person. If you don't have money, don't go in."

Many people left with their belongings on their backs, and they didn't sell so many things in a month.

It seems that they can only go to Luoluo City, which is a little further away.

Wright said with righteous indignation, "How could this city lord do this. Squeeze the people's money."

"Let's go to the city first to see what's going on."

A group of people paid silver coins and entered the city.

Along the way, I heard many traders talking about it, saying that the city lord would send money from soldiers and traders every day.Said to pay taxes.

The merchants complained a lot, and the powerful merchants were going to change places.They can't stay in this Acropolis anymore.

Hall and the others found a restaurant and were waiting for the meal.

A troop of soldiers entered.

"The boss pays the money today."

"Master officer, didn't you already hand it in this morning?" The boss said timidly.

"Morning is morning, and it's noon now. You have to pay the noon tax, so pay the money quickly. Do you want to be closed?"

The boss sighed and took out 20 silver coins.

After receiving the money, the soldier went to the next shop.

The boss said tiredly, "Hey, there is no way out."

Hall and the others were angry in their hearts, why is the lord of the Acropolis like this.

How do ordinary people live like this.

After lunch, Hall and the others went to a hotel to rest.

At night, Hall and the others sneaked out of the hotel.Ready to go to the City Lord's Mansion.

Hall and the others entered the city lord's mansion, threatened several servants, and asked about the city lord's room.

Hall and the others went in and tied up the city owner.

After tying up the city lord, Hall and the others forced him to ask why the city lord oppressed the people like this.

The city lord was crying, "I don't want to squeeze the people's money, but His Majesty the King asked the Acropolis to hand over 1000 million gold coins within two months. Originally, due to the impact of the war, the Acropolis has not been restored this year. How can there be so much money?" Hand it in."

"I even took out my own property, and the servants also sold it. But there is not enough money, so I was forced to take money from the common people."

"If 1000 million is not handed over within two months, my family's life will not be saved. What can I do." As he spoke, the city lord was about to cry.He was really helpless.

Hall and the others suddenly realized that it was no wonder that when they entered the City Lord's Mansion, they felt that the City Lord's Mansion was too desolate.

There is not even decent furniture, and there are not many servants.

It turned out to be the case.

"Then City Lord, do you know why His Majesty the King charges so much money?"

"Hey, I don't know. It's not just my city. The other city owners have also been notified. It's just a matter of more money and less money."

"My lord, I offended you just now." Allen said apologetically.

"It's okay." The Lord City Lord also knew that these young people should be full of justice in their hearts, so they ran to the City Lord's Mansion to kidnap him.

Think about when he was young, he did many such things.

Hall and the others apologized to the city lord one by one.Then left the City Lord's Mansion.

"Let's go to the royal capital and find out why the king charges so much money?"

"Okay, let's go back and talk to Teacher Joseph and the others. Let's go now."

Hall and the others returned to the hotel and told Joseph and the others about the situation.

Everyone packed up their things and left the hotel.

I went to the magic teleportation array in the Acropolis and paid 17 gold coins.They teleported to the royal capital.

Because it was midnight, the soldiers guarding the gate were startled when they saw the person coming out of the magic circle suddenly.

"who."

Joseph walked over and showed the magister's badge to the soldier, "Officer, I am a teacher and I am traveling around with my students. Now I am going to take my students to the royal capital for a tour."

"Oh, to enter the capital, each person pays 50 silver coins. A carriage costs 10 silver coins."

Joseph handed the money to the soldier, and there was an extra 10 silver coins, "Officer, I'm bothering you in the middle of the night. This is to invite you to drink."

The soldier smiled for a year, and this mage was quite upright, "Just to remind you, don't wander around. If you stay in a hotel, you can go to Helen Hotel. This hotel is clean and cheap. And the owner is also very nice."

"Thank you, officer." Joseph led the crowd into the capital.

Many shops are open at night in the capital.

We found Helen's Hotel and checked in.

The boss is really nice and told them a lot to pay attention to.

"Boss, I wonder if we can talk alone." Joseph took out a level 7 magic stone.

The boss smiled and said, "Of course. The magician is here, please."

The boss took Joseph to the room in the backyard. "I don't know what you want to ask, magician?"

"We came from the Acropolis. The lord of the Acropolis said that His Majesty the King asked him to hand over 1000 million gold coins within two months. Does the boss know why the King wants to collect so much money?"

The boss turned his face, "It turns out that this is the matter, and there is nothing we can't say. Your Majesty wants to build a new palace."

"Thank you boss for telling me." Joseph handed the Philosopher's Stone to the boss, and Joseph returned to the room.

Hall and the others hurriedly asked, "Mr. Joseph, is there a reason for asking?"

"I asked, the king wanted to build a new palace, so he collected so much money."

Claire said, "The war has only passed for more than a year, how can His Majesty the King waste people and money."

Everyone was silent.

After a long time, Allen said, "I thought the war was over and the people could live a better life. Now that the king is doing this, it is not much better than the war."

"The master said that the monarch is like a boat, and the people are like water. Water can make the boat sail safely, but it can also sink the boat."

"The king does this because he is not afraid that the people will turn against him."

"Wright, keep your voice down. Walls have ears." Hall patted him.

After chatting for a long time, we each went back to our rooms to rest.

Hall lay on the bed, thinking.

war, peace.peace, war.

Thinking until dawn, Hall didn't come up with any results.

Hall talked to Joseph, and Hall returned to the Silent Forest alone.

"Master Qingyao." Hall found Qingyao who was planting trees.

"Hall, why did you come back suddenly?"

Hall told Qingyao what the king had done, "Lord Qingyao, why did the king do this? Are the people less important than his new palace?"

Qing Yao put down the hoe, "Hall, the king is also a human being, and everyone has selfish desires. The king may think that a splendid palace can show his dignity."

"But Lord Qingyao, the king is wasting money and people by doing this."

"He's going to do the same thing that wastes people's money? Then Hall, what are you going to do?"

"Me." What would he do, Hall looked at the land, what would he do.

He wants to resist, he wants to prevent this from happening.

"I'm going to stop the king from doing that."

"Hall, the king has thousands of troops, what do you have? What do you use to stop him?"

"Can you stop it alone?"

"Have you ever thought about how difficult it is for you to stop the king?"

"Even if you stop the king, the new king will do the same. What will you do?"

Hall lowered his head and thought for a long time.Hall said with firm eyes: "No matter how difficult it is, I will do it. The country should not be like this." He wants to build a peaceful country.
