Interstellar Apocalypse: I lead players to dismantle spaceships

The purchasing team took five cars in total. Chu Hang's car turned around and headed for the West City Gate, while the others continued to the Palace Hotel to transport luggage and contact the auction in advance.

Alka did not get off the car, but followed Chu Hang and the others to go out of the city.

He was a veteran after all, and he did not take the challenges he might encounter in the slums too seriously. Instead, he thought it was an opportunity to observe Chu Hang.

The hovercraft arrived at the West City Gate soon.

When they got out of the door, there was a modern farm belt that could be seen at a glance. Yes, the word "belt" was used because this green belt was like a buffer zone, separating the beautiful and prosperous capital from the dirty and dilapidated slums.

On the border between the farm and the slum, there stood a 30-meter-high wall with towers standing on it, monitoring and guarding against the population in the slums like a prison.

Everyone looked at everything in front of them in shock, and Fanxing suddenly felt inspired.

"If a king fears his people more than foreigners, he should build a castle; if he fears foreigners more than his people, he should destroy the castle."

"Indeed, the rulers here have already treated the people as thieves..."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Suddenly, Sugar Frost interrupted at an inopportune time.

"But they are indeed thieves and robbers!"

Everyone was choked and looked at Sugar Frost helplessly. The little beauty blinked her big eyes with an innocent look.

Well, there was nothing wrong with what she said.

There must be something hateful about pitiful people. Not to mention that outsiders do not like the Barat people, even their rulers dislike their own people for being useless.

There is no solution to this problem.

The hovercraft quickly drove into the military zone outside the west gate. The old housekeeper thought about it and finally arranged three armored vehicles and a squad of soldiers for Chu Hang and his team.

After all, he had just received a report from his subordinates that this group of fat sheep from the Federation brought a full 300 million copper coins. If he could not let them leave all the money in New Delhi, it would be his dereliction of duty.

After thanking the old housekeeper, Chu Hang and his party took a wheeled armored vehicle into the slums.

There is a wide main road in the slums, but it would be difficult to enter the settlements on both sides. At least the size of the armored vehicle would knock down many "illegal buildings".

"Let's not go in, otherwise we will be thrown Molotov cocktails!"

The squad leader who was traveling with him was nervous and obviously very resistant to going deep into the slums.

With just a few people like them, they would not even get a small bubble if they were thrown into the slums. In less than half an hour, even the armored vehicles could be demolished by the unruly people there!

Chu Hang nodded in agreement.

He did not come here to experience the suffering of the people. To be precise, he came to find someone.

After arriving on this planet, the Fire Seed System that hacked into the planet's main network found a lot of interesting information for him.

For example, there are traces of Xianzhou people's activities here, and for some unknown reason, they seem to be in conflict with the Barat authorities.

Chu Hang values ​​these former brothers of the Star Forging Empire very much, so even if there is only a slight possibility, he will try to find them.

The difficulty lies in the fact that the population of Barat is too large and the environment is complex. There is almost no network except for a few cities. If the Xianzhou people are hiding in countless slums, not to mention Chu Hang, the Barat government can't find them.

But Chu Hang has an advantage, that is, psychic power.

His current psychic power level has reached the peak of level 6, which is very close to level 7. Once he becomes a high-level psychic, he can sense low-level psychics within a radius of several kilometers.

With the psychic talent of the Xianzhou people, awakening psychic power is not a difficult thing.

As long as the psychic is found, it is much easier to find the Xianzhou people from them than to find a needle in a haystack.

As for now, Chu Hang just didn't give up and wanted to see if he could catch a dead mouse with his current psychic level.

Unfortunately, he thought too much.

The slums outside the city were much more complicated than expected, and the Barat soldiers driving were so timid that they had to spend a long time to scout at each intersection, which greatly reduced Chu Hang's search efficiency.

"Why don't you drive the hovercraft out?"

Finally, Chu Hang couldn't help asking.

The squad leader who was traveling with him had a big black face and a constipated expression and said: "There are anti-aircraft guns, anti-aircraft missiles, and even EMP launchers hidden in the slums. More than half of the low-altitude targets will be shot down by the rebels and then decomposed into nothing."

Everyone was speechless.

Good man, this is the capital of an interstellar regime? Are you sure it's not an occupied area?

"Do these people pay taxes?"

Gray Wind suddenly spoke.

The squad leader nodded as a matter of course.

"Of course they have to pay taxes. They are citizens of the Republic. Paying taxes is their obligation!"

Everyone rolled their eyes immediately.

This is the first time I've seen such a relationship between officials and the public. The problem is that you haven't done anything after collecting the money!

"Then how do you collect taxes? Won't the tax collectors be shot in the back?"

Everyone looked at him curiously.

The squad leader laughed and said proudly.

"No need to be so troublesome! We divide the area outside the city into blocks, and each block has its own elected district head. The district head will help the government collect taxes. When the day comes, we can just drive the warship over to take the taxes away. It's very safe~"

Lin Yuexi raised her eyebrows.

"What if the district head can't collect taxes?"

The squad leader spread his hands.

"That only means that this block is full of mobs, or lazy maggots. There is no need for them to exist. We will directly bombard it with naval guns. Don't worry, in less than a week, a new community will be built on that vacant land, and the residents who migrated here will work harder than their predecessors."

Oh my god.

Everyone was stunned, even Alka.

In order to collect taxes, their federation has specially established the Internal Revenue Service and the tax fleet. The law enforcement priority is higher than that of the police. Even so, there are still so many people evading taxes.

I didn't expect that the tax system in the Barat region would be so... "advanced".

Let the local tyrants do the dirty work. If the local tyrants do a good job, they can continue to do it. If they don't do a good job, they will be overthrown by the people. If a block is full of garbage and even a decent leader can't be elected, then the entire block will be formatted and replaced with capable people.

Although the lower class of society is exploited and oppressed, hatred is often only directed at those local tyrants. Whenever public grievances break out, killing a district head can often solve most of the conflicts.

The mayor was killed, and no one else can be blamed. Either he collected too much tax, or he was incapable of leading the entire block to generate income. The government was happy to help the block build a low-end production line. If he couldn't make money, he deserved to die.

Performance appraisals that will kill you if you don't meet them, just ask if you are afraid.

This goes on and on, and eventually maintains a deformed dynamic balance.

It saves time and worry, and you can get money. The federal consortium is crying with envy!

Seeing everyone's stunned and shocked expressions, the squad leader shook his head proudly and teased: "It's getting late, we have to return. I guess you don't want to experience the night outside the city~"

You have done so many immoral things, you must be a ghost to dare to walk on the night road!

Everyone complained in their hearts.

"Go back."
