Douluo Continent: Homecoming

Chapter 14 The nobles who beat their bones and marrow

Bi Yuan went out happily. He looked back at the Wuhun Palace where he was born and raised. He couldn't help but recall what happened in his previous life. In his previous life, he studied and worked without leaving home too far. He had to leave home for a year and a half to get rid of his curiosity and expectations. I feel a little sad without realizing it.

As early as a few years ago, Bi Yuan secretly inquired about the whereabouts of Xiao Gangzi, so that he could write a bloody Qiong Yao drama about the experience of Xiao Gangzi, the heir to the future family of the blue electric Tyrannosaurus Rex, the innate soul. He is a waste with only half a level of strength. His family has been cultivating him for many years regardless of the cost, but he has not been able to break through the bottleneck of level 29. After that, he went to Wuhun City and left Wuhun City. After he left Wuhun City, he met and fell in love with his sister. On the night of the wedding, he left his sister to run away alone. Damn, this is what this person did.

Douluo Continent, southwest of Tiandou Empire, Fasnuo Province.Notting City is where Xiao Gangzi is currently located. Notting City is just a poor town with a small population.

Bi Yuan was walking on the road full of mud and saw an old man taking care of the farmland. His skin was dark and sallow, and his muscles were thin like an old cow being squeezed day after day. For them, it would be great if they could produce a soul master among their descendants. Without the hope of turning over, the talent of the offspring is felt by the parents. This hope is very slim for them, just like a drowning person climbing on grass to survive. If there is no hope, he must seize this opportunity.

Seeing the scene in front of me, the planting methods were still very backward. Six years ago, under Bi Yuan's suggestion, Wuhundian began to select high-quality grain seeds, and most of the grain output increased.However, traditional planting methods are still used here. The nobles are not short of food, and they all have power and soul, so they don't need to spend time in this place.Moreover, the people at the bottom did not bear the risk of research failure. If they failed and could not pay for food, the whole family would starve to death.

Bi Yuan unknowingly turned his head away and sighed: "I don't know how many people like this there are. How much of the food in the fields is theirs after working hard for a whole year."

Bi Yuan walked to the farmland and said to the old man: "Old man, how much tax do you pay on the fields here every year?"

The old man looked at Bi Yuan's gorgeous white clothes. The frame of the clothes shone with gold and the dazzling gems on his belt.The person in front of him was either rich or noble, and he knew very well that he would never be able to afford any scraps from his outfit.

"Puff!" He knelt down directly in the field. He didn't care about the soil splashing on his clothes because he knelt down. He said tremblingly: "Sir, I have to hand over [-]% of this field every year. The third floor is already barely It’s barely enough to not starve to death. I beg you, sir, please don’t raise taxes any more.”

Bi Yuan was very angry when he heard that he had to pay [-]% next year. In the feudal society of Bi Yuan's generation, he couldn't do this. [-]% means that there is no surplus food in the family every year, and he has to sell his children in the event of a disaster. Girl, no wonder there are so many check bars in the cities we pass by on the way.It verifies the words of the old Tokugawa turtle Ieyasu: "You can't let the people eat too much, otherwise they may cause trouble, and you can't let them starve to death. This will only shake the foundation of the rule and make them starve to death even if they don't have enough to eat." , then you will be busy making a living and have no way to do other things.”

Bi Yuan looked at the old man who was kneeling on the ground and crying. The old man's body trembled slightly and said, "You misunderstood. I am not the lord or an adult here. I was just passing by to ask out of curiosity."

After hearing the explanation, the old man raised his head, because the dirt on his knees touched the dark old face.

"Lord Soul Master, the land I receive here is based on this standard."

"Old man, are you being lazy? Believe it or not, I will take your granddaughter in now. I have liked your granddaughter for a long time because she is so pink and tender. I even wanted to send her to awaken her martial soul so that I could defy heaven and change her destiny. I have long warned the people in the village that no one in the village is allowed to send her to awaken her martial spirit on my family’s land, not to mention that this year’s awakening time has passed, and it will be the same every year in the future, unless you agree to my request.”

I saw a yellow-haired boy speaking arrogantly, and his arrogance could be described as very arrogant.
