After being silent for a while, Xiao Chuchu asked, "Have you practiced the Tongtian Jue? What's the effect?"

When it came to the skills, Chen Huanran's expression became much better, "After practicing for a month, everyone has improved to varying degrees. The most powerful one has already risen to two levels. This is without the aid of elixirs. We have sent people to big cities to purchase the medicinal materials needed for Bone Pill, but they haven’t come back yet.”

Hearing that the technique was so effective, Xiao Chuchu's face softened. Maybe it was because the qualifications of the human race here were too good. Being able to advance twice a month was definitely an amazing talent.

What's more, this place is located on the edge of the world of beasts, and the spiritual energy is not very strong.

While the two were talking, the mayor pushed open the door and saw the two siblings waiting for him in the yard.

When the mayor saw Xiao Chuchu, he didn't say anything, but turned around and left.

Xiao Chuchu was confused, "He doesn't want to see me?"

Chen Huanran shook his head, "No, I should be greeting people."

"Why are you greeting people?"

"Thank you, Sister Chu Chu, you don't know that all the people are very grateful to you for the exercises you gave to the town. Recently, people always ask me when you will come so that I can thank you in person."

Xiao Chuchu understood that she had been oppressed for too long. Once she had the ability to resist, she would naturally feel like a serf and sing. It was normal to express her gratitude to the person who gave her the skills.

However, Xiao Chuchu was still frightened when he saw the sudden influx of people outside the courtyard. Everyone bowed their heads without hesitation and knocked their heads on the ground with a thud.

Subconsciously, he suddenly jumped into the air and avoided everyone's bows.

The education Xiao Chuchu received could not accept the behavior of a group of people kowtowing to her.

"Lord Chen Chu has given us the kindness to rebuild our town. We have nothing to repay. From today on, our town will only follow Lord Chen's lead." The mayor said impassionedly.

The people behind him, as well as the people outside the courtyard who were gradually arriving, were all bowing to Xiao Chuchu in mid-air. He shouted, "Master Chen is the only one who is following the lead."

Xiao Chuchu was stunned for a while, "Everyone, get up first."

The mayor wanted to continue kowtowing, but Xiao Chuchu looked at him coldly. The pressure of the strong man in the pill formation suddenly made the mayor panic. Could it be that he had offended Mr. Chen?

"Mayor, please get up quickly. Our sect doesn't like this. Don't go back and make my sister unhappy."

The mayor sheepishly stood up first and asked the people behind him to get up.

Xiao Chuchu lowered his height so that he could see everyone clearly, and also so that everyone could see him clearly.

"The law of the jungle is the eternal truth. Only by becoming stronger can we escape the fate of being hunted. I hope everyone will work hard to cultivate and become stronger as soon as possible to protect themselves and their families."

Amidst the cheers of everyone, Xiao Chuchu landed and signaled the mayor to evacuate everyone. She was a little uncomfortable with so many people surrounding her and looking at her with fiery eyes.

After everyone left, the mayor was still very excited. Rubbing his hands, he paced back and forth in front of Xiao Chuchu.

"Mayor, please sit down first. Let's sit down and talk." Chen Huanran suppressed a smile and asked the mayor to sit down.

"Mr. Chen, you don't know that since practicing the technique, everyone's strength has increased very quickly. Because of this, they can easily block the attack of the Barbarian Bull Clan. But they will not give up. Maybe the attack will be more fierce. , dense.”

Xiao Chuchu breathed a sigh of relief and said it was better to get down to business. She really didn't like the idea of ​​cultivating a personality. When the time comes, a group of people who admire you will ask you to do something. Of course, you can choose not to do it, but there is obviously no need to let others have it. As expected, to put it bluntly, Xiao Chuchu just didn’t want to give anyone the chance to morally kidnap him.

"Mr. Mayor, do you have anything to ask of me today?"

The mayor was stunned for a moment, touched his chin and thought for a while, "Not yet. The war has been going well recently, and I can barely support it. The children have been settled, it seems..."

Xiao Chuchu couldn't hold it in any longer. She was a villain, but she still wanted to talk about some things up front, so as not to raise a group of unfamiliar people. "Mayor, if you have anything to do in the future, please tell me directly. I don't want what happened today to happen again." .”

The mayor was a little puzzled. He looked at Chen Huanran and didn't get any enlightenment. However, since Mr. Chen said it, he naturally followed it. "Don't worry, Mr. Chen, it will never appear again in the future."

Xiao Chuchu decided to say a few more words, "Mayor, although I have brought exercises to the town, everyone has to walk their own path. If you don't work hard, everything will be in vain. The most I can do is give you a chance to become stronger. , No matter how much I can give, once you make everyone think that I am omnipotent, it may make many people's determination to become stronger become weak, and my ability is limited. If there are some things that I can't do, wouldn't it make everyone despair? "

The mayor looked confused. He couldn't figure out what was wrong with thanking a benefactor. "Isn't it our benefactor who gave us a chance to become stronger? A benefactor can't take care of everything. He can eat, drink, and have sex." Never mind, why are you so desperate?"

The corner of Xiao Chuchu's mouth twitched, "Ahem, let's change the topic. Mayor, have you ever thought that the Barbarian Bull Clan might merge with the Kaigoat Clan to attack?"

The mayor waved his hand and said, "Impossible. If that were the case, they would start fighting."

Xiao Chuchu raised his eyebrows, he was indeed from the Ten Thousand Beast Clan, and his brain circuit was very clear.

"What about you? Have you never thought about annexing them?"

The mayor still waved his hand, "If you annex them, you will have to pay taxes. How good it is now that you don't have to pay taxes and will pay subsidies every hundred years."

Xiao Chuchu was speechless. Is there something different in the composition of the air in this place? It was really unbelievable to her that humans could have such simple thoughts.

"Pay taxes? How much?"

"Well, for the area of ​​two towns, you have to pay taxes. It's about a hundred spiritual stones per year. If there are three towns, it's two hundred spiritual stones per year. It's really too much. One in and one out is two hundred. A spiritual stone." The mayor fell into the difficult logic of settling accounts.

Xiao Chuchu couldn't stand it anymore. One hundred pills per year or ten thousand pills per hundred years are equivalent to one spiritual source. That is to say, if you don't expand, you will be given one spiritual source every hundred years, but if you expand the area, you will have to pay one spiritual source every hundred years. It is indeed a bit uneconomical. This may be the method of the Ten Thousand Beast Clan to limit its expansion.

"If we only destroy them without occupying their towns, does that mean we don't have to pay taxes?"

"No, as long as you take action, no matter whether the other party is destroyed or expelled, it is yours. If you don't occupy the place, it is your business, but the taxes are yours."

Xiao Chuchu nodded to indicate that he understood. A hundred spirit stones were not too expensive. Although the income from the last spirit stone mine was used to contract source stones, the few storage bags intercepted by Mr. Xu were indeed quite rewarding.

Xiao Chuchu guessed that it was most likely the minerals from several nearby veins for a period of time, and there were about 40,000 spirit stones. Unfortunately, no spiritual source was found in it.
