Alien High Lord

……

"My lord, the slave merchants have arrived in Winter City, and the news about the family tax has been released. Now, there is no one who has come to pay the family tax."

The tax officer reported the news to Carton.

Carton nodded, everything was in his expectation.

But the tax officer said at this time: "But my lord, there are many civilians who can't pay the family tax. It seems that they plan to leave Cold Winter City and go to the sinful town. Shall we stop them all?"

"Sinful Town," Carton was taken aback, then said with a sneer, "I almost forgot that there is such a place."

Caton said to the tax officer without hesitation: "Since the slave merchants have been called, of course they can't be allowed to run away, and the city guards should seal the city gates and prevent anyone from entering or leaving."

When the tax officer heard this, he was a little embarrassed, "My lord, there are countless corpses in the city now, and they all depend on the civilians to deal with them. If no one is allowed to enter or leave, should these corpses be handled by the city guard?"

Unexpectedly, since the first battle of the beast tide, the city guards have suffered heavy casualties, and many of them were seriously injured. At this time, less than 1000 people are still intact.

If they let them deal with the tens of thousands of corpses in the whole city, not only would it take time, but there would also be complaints among the city guards.

In fact, Caton can also hire a group of civilians to deal with these corpses, but this time the family tax does not belong to half of the copper coins, which means that as many copper coins as he hires, he will lose as many copper coins.

Carton thought for a while, and then said: "Then allow those civilians who handle the corpses to leave, as well as the old, the weak, the sick, and the disabled, but those strong young men and women must not let them go, especially if they bring their families with them. You can never let them go."

Hearing this, the tax officer already knew what to do, and then he reported the last thing.

"My lord, there is movement in the church that you brought to my attention."

"Say"

"Today, the church adopted a large number of orphans, and also recruited many rich believers. I heard that each rich believer contributed a lot of gold coins to the church."

Carton frowned upon hearing this.

He can understand how to attract rich believers, but what is the use of adopting a large number of children?

Just for charity?

Maybe, after all, the church does such hypocritical things all the time.

At this time, Caton still has a lot of things to deal with, so he is lazy to pay attention to these small actions of the church.

……

"Going to Sin Town?"

Qixi looked very confused, but he couldn't make Qimi a slave.

Even as a commoner, he knew that slaves were no longer human beings. Qixi had often heard of slave owners beating slaves to death.

The empire doesn't care about this at all, because slaves are the private property of slave owners, and slave owners have the right to kill slaves.

"Kimmy must never be a slave."

Qixi confirmed her decision as she spoke.

"I went to Sin Town, and I will protect Curious Mi."

Thinking of this, Qixi hurriedly pushed the trolley towards home.

"Chimi, are you awake?"

As soon as Qixi got home, she opened the door carefully. If Qimi didn't wake up, he didn't want to wake Qimi up, so that he would have time to deal with Grandpa Tuqi's body.

However, when Qixi walked into the house, his expression changed suddenly.

There is no sign of Chimi at home.

"Qimi, where are you? Don't scare me. It's my brother's fault. I shouldn't have gone out while you were sleeping. Forgive my brother and come out quickly."

Kissy's loud calls got no response from anyone.

"Chimi, where are you?"

At this moment, Qixi's face had turned pale.

He ran to the street in a hurry, calling Qimi's name loudly.

However, he ran all over the street, but he still didn't see Qimi.

Qixi couldn't help thinking of the old beggar.

"Could it be that Qimi was taken away by those people?"

Qixi's pale face suddenly turned pale. If Qimi really fell into the hands of those people, the end might be...

Qixi didn't dare to continue thinking about it. He thought of the big knight, but he didn't know where the big knight lived, or even his name.

Even if he went to ask the city guards, the city guards would definitely not tell him the position of the great knight.

"chimi"

Qixi couldn't help but let out a cry of despair.

Chapter 151 Demonized Potato Seedlings

Just when Qixi was anxious like an ant on a hot pan.

Not far away, a middle-aged man walked towards Qixi.

The middle-aged man first glanced at the cart next to Qixi, and then asked Qixi, "Qixi, what's wrong with you."

Seeing that it was his neighbor, Uncle Gelu, Qixi hurriedly asked, "Uncle Gelu, have you seen Qimi..."

Then Qixi recounted what happened to her just now.

"It turns out that Tachi is also dead." A strange light flashed in Gru's eyes after hearing this.

He suddenly said: "I remembered that Qimi was taken away by Charity. Before she saw Qimi crying outside the house, she thought something happened to you too. It just happened that the family tax news spread, so she So I took Qimi and left Winter City."

"Is that so?" Qixi was slightly relieved when she heard that Qimi was not taken away by the beggar old man.

However, although Charity is a kind aunt who often gives them candies, Qixi is still very worried and is debating whether to catch up immediately, but what about Grandpa Tucci's corpse?

Seeing this, Gelu hurriedly said, "If you want to catch up with Qimi, you must hurry up. Now most people are forbidden to leave at the gate of the city. It just so happened that we used a trolley to pretend that we were going out of the city to bury Mr. Taki, and then we went out of the city together. .”

Upon hearing this, Qixi immediately nodded in agreement without any doubt.

Wait until Gru loads Tucci's body onto the cart.

Just as Qixi was about to push the trolley, Gru stopped Qixi suddenly.

"Wait a moment"

Qixi looked at Gru suspiciously.

But Gru showed a trace of cruelty in his eyes. The next moment he picked up the shovel on the trolley, raised the shovel and threw it at his left leg.

"what……"

Gru let out a scream, and his legs twitched continuously.

Qixi was stunned for a moment, and then asked a little at a loss: "Uncle Gelu, what are you doing?"

Gelu smiled wryly, and said to Qixi: "The city guards are guarding the gate of the city now, and young and middle-aged men and women are not allowed to leave. I will pretend to be a lame later. You remember to smooth things over for me so that we can leave the city together."

Qixi nodded quickly.

Gru grinned at the corner of his mouth, and together with Qixi, they pushed the cart with difficulty and walked towards the gate of the city.

……

Sin Forest, inside the valley.

Halfway through the construction of the new town, a temporary suspension of work was announced.

The lack of food caused everyone to temporarily put down their work and start land reclamation.

Most people in the valley don't understand this. Even if the land is reclaimed, they don't have seeds, and even if they have seeds, they don't know when they can harvest.

Far water cannot quench near thirst.

Li Fan didn't explain too much about this.

Fortunately, Anna and the others all chose to support Li Fan, and the people of the three clans didn't ask any more questions when they saw this.

Anna and the others didn't really trust Li Fan unconditionally, but many of them knew some miraculous deeds of Li Fan.

For example, making the space ring bigger.

They believed that Li Fan was also prepared this time, so they rushed to let them cultivate the fields.

Anna and the others were very curious about what Li Fan's plans were, but unfortunately Li Fan didn't tell them.

It's not that Li Fan wants to be mysterious, it's just that all the magical crops are exchanged on a per-acre basis.

Li Fan can't just waste an acre of seedlings just to satisfy their curiosity.

Anyway, they should be able to plant the magical crops in the next few days, and then they will not only be able to see them, but also have to plant them themselves.

After one day passed, they cultivated a total of more than 100 mu of fields.

The number is not large, because the area close to the interior of the valley has no activities all year round, and there is a lot of vegetation, and even a lot of big trees have grown, which is extremely inconvenient to clean.

Fortunately, more than 100 acres of fields are temporarily enough for them to use.

Li Fan looked at his bond value, the accumulation of these days brought his bond value to 3880 points.

Li Fan spent 2000 bond points in exchange for 100 acres of seedlings.

All the seedlings he exchanged were enchanted potato seedlings, because enchanted potatoes matured the fastest among all enchanted crops.

When Li Fan took out these demonized potato seedlings from the space ring, everyone including Anna was stunned.

They had no idea when Li Fan got these seedlings.

With so many seedlings, a full harvest can sustain them edible for a long time.

The only problem is that the seedlings take a long time to grow, and the food they have left will not support the seedlings to maturity.

Li Fan still didn't explain this, and there was no need to explain it at all.

According to the system's introduction to the demonized potatoes, it only takes half a month for the demonized potato seedlings to be harvested from planting.

So in the next time, they will see this demonized potato grow at a speed that subverts their cognition.

At that time, they will naturally no longer doubt Li Fan's decision.

……

It took half a day for everyone to plant all the demonized potato seedlings.

These fields are fertile enough in themselves, and don't need fertilization at all, just a simple watering once.

Watering is a little troublesome. There is no river in the valley, and they usually rely on the mountain spring water left on the cliff for food.

These mountain springs are definitely not enough for watering.

Li Fan used the space ring to fill 50 cubic meters of river water for watering.

He personally watered the demonized potatoes in front of him, seeing how they were swaying due to the current, Li Fan couldn't help looking forward to what they would look like tomorrow.

The next day, Li Fan ran to the field early in the morning to visit these demonized potato seedlings.

Everyone was a little disdainful of Li Fan's eagerness.

How can there be crops that have changed just one day after planting.

Even the 30 unicorn wolf cubs that are very edible, it will take ten days and a half months to see obvious changes.

But since the lord Li Fan is so enthusiastic, these subordinates can't be too indifferent, they can only accompany Li Fan through the journey.

Aoki and the others were actually a little worried, but what they were worried about was whether these seedlings would survive. After all, the current weather is not the best time for planting, and it is normal for the seedlings not to survive.

But when they got to the field, everyone was stunned.

I saw that the fields that were a little bald yesterday were already a large green area today.

Overnight, those potato seedlings were not only alive and well, but compared with yesterday, each seedling grew at least 10 centimeters taller.

At this time, if someone said that he was mature, some people would believe it.

Aoki and the others were so shocked that their jaws were about to dislocate.

The Magic Continent also has potatoes, so they naturally know how potatoes grow.

Although the growth rate of potatoes after germination will be very fast, the growth rate of these potato seedlings in front of them is too fast.
