Chapter 672 The Emperor’s Sword Li Qingxian

The mud walls are high and the gravel roads are paved.

Several people stepped up the wooden stairs and walked into an office room.

The three of them stopped.

"Mr. Fu, the two noble men have arrived." Xu Changren said respectfully.

Li Qingxian looked inside and saw a dim magical light shining in the deep night.

Behind the large desk, there is a person wearing a worn fourth-grade official robe, with a red hat on his head, and a white gauze hanging down from the hat, blocking his face.

Through the white gauze, it was faintly visible that the person inside was wearing a black mask. The mask had a word "福" written on it, and only his eyes, mouth and nose were exposed.

"Ye Han, the director of the Night Guard Patrol Division, has met Mr. Fu." Li Qingxian simply cupped his hand.

"Zhou Hen." Zhou Hen remained motionless.

"Hehehe... Please sit down, both of you. We are all going to the mountainous area, so there is no need to be so divided."

Li Qingxian crossed the threshold and sat on the chair by the door, with Zhou Hen standing next to him.

Xu Changren's eyelids twitched when he saw Zhou Hen standing instead of sitting down.

Li Qingxian said: "Ye came here just to do a small business with Mr. Fu. We will be granted the status of a town citizen, and you will get a medium-grade magical weapon."

Mr. Fu sighed softly and said: "Ye Si is a cheerful person. In the past, when I saw two people who were the best, they would not trade anything, so I directly received the certificate of good citizenship and took them to the mountainous area for a walk. After meeting a friend, the mayor gave him a temporary identity in the mountainous area. But in recent years, fierce dragons crossing the river have entered the town one after another, often causing trouble. In order to avoid accidents, everything must be done according to the rules. Yesterday's King of Chu , noble status, right? You haven’t paid 20% of your wealth honestly. Of course, I heard that Mr. Zhou is a top-grade martial artist, and as long as he passes the test, he does not need to pay any wealth. You...sigh..."

Li Qingxian looked at Mr. Fu.

Mr. Fu continued: "You are the chief minister of Qi State. Logically speaking, you should not accept it, but the King of Chu has already taken it. This matter is not easy to handle."

Li Qingxian smiled and said: "I am an impatient person, so let me tell the truth. If the King of Chu really handed over 20% of the wealth, and there were no other matters, I would not hesitate. However, if the King of Chu did not really hand over 20% of the wealth, 20% of the wealth, just to say that I handed over 20%, or to return it after handing over, is there any trick, then I feel uncomfortable. I believe that Mr. Fu and the mayor are fair and equitable, so be it, you ask Emperor Huangquan , Wu Niangniang and Emperor Guicheng swear an oath that I will immediately hand over 20% of my wealth."

Xu Changren was so shocked that his pupils trembled. Can those three names be spoken randomly? Do you really think this is a lucky town?

Mr. Fu remained motionless, gently stroking the penholder with his right hand.

After a long time, Mr. Fu sighed and said: "Mr. Ye, you are also an important member of the imperial court. It is true that the dirty tricks here cannot be hidden from you. But, what can we do? As the manager of the lower district, should I stand up and shout The nobles in Shangshan District are this and that? It’s wonderful, I can’t even dream of it, but can that be said? In front of you, let me tell the truth, this Xu Changren is my dog, and I am only in Shangshan District It’s just my dog. You are an important member of the party, and Master Zhou, a high-ranking official, is not something I can afford to offend, but... I have to listen to the mayor."

"I think there must be some accommodation." Li Qingxian said.

Mr. Fu said helplessly: "As long as the mayor opens his mouth, everything will be easy to handle."

"Please contact me." Li Qingxian placed a medium-grade magic weapon on the table.

Xu Changren looked over and saw a small copper pot with a carp pattern, which shimmered in the night and could not be seen.

However, Mr. Fu's eyes lit up and he said slowly: "The spring kettle continuously produces clean water. Here, the value of this thing is far beyond the ordinary high-grade magical artifacts."

Xu Changren took a slow and deep breath. There was no natural drinkable water in the whole Fu Town. Everyone's water was given by the magic weapon in the mountainous area.

Any such magical weapon will ensure the long-term prosperity of the family in Shangshan Mountain.

"If this matter is resolved, it's yours." Li Qingxian said.

The white gauze in front of Mr. Fu moved slightly and said: "As expected of Sizheng of the Night Guard, his actions are extraordinary. It is absolutely impossible for me to disobey the mayor's order, but with such a touching treasure in front of me, I It's also difficult to control. How about this, you and I each take a step back. You hand over some of your belongings to me, put them in the Yamen, count them and register them. Then, ask someone from the Yamen to check. After they leave, you take away the belongings, and I Burning down the warehouse once and for all."

Zhou Hen narrowed his eyes.

Xu Changren's heart skipped a beat.

Li Qingxian smiled and said, "That's right. How about I take out ten low-grade magical artifacts, two medium-grade magical artifacts, and ten thousand taels of cash in cash?"

Mr. Fu laughed and said: "Ye Sizheng is joking. Any magical weapon you have is better than these. We are only keeping it temporarily, and it will be returned to you in the end. Why don't you hand over some hard goods?" "

"What if I don't pay?" Li Qingxian smiled.

"Ye Sizheng, you have to understand that this is Fuzhen, not Qi State. You can call the shots in Qi State, but here, you still have to follow the rules. I wonder if Changren told you that in Fuzhen, the most important thing is The most important thing is not the rank, nor the own strength or weakness, but the rules of Fu Town. The biggest rule of Fu Town is the mayor, followed by the notices."

"Tell me about the notice, I'm very interested." Li Qingxian said.

Mr. Fu said: "Once upon a time, a great man came to Fu Town. He was a second-grade man. Not to mention in Fu Town, he was also a great nobleman in Qi State. That man disobeyed the mayor and wanted to seize power. As a result, What? The mayor spent a full ten notices to weaken his strength to the middle level, and then killed him. To be honest, not to mention the second level, even the first level is not worth the mayor's notice."

"Whoever has more notices will be the biggest hilltop in Fu Town?" Li Qingxian asked.

"It can be said that, therefore, I advise you not to act rashly, it is not worth it. What's more, the things that arrive at the yamen will ultimately benefit all the townspeople. It will not be a loss if you take some out. You can't accept the favor of the town. But you don’t get a dime, right?” Mr. Fu said.

Li Qingxian nodded and said: "I will also take a step back. In this way, I will take out 20% of my wealth and gradually distribute it to the townspeople who need it most within a year. Your town government can supervise and verify, but it is not allowed to interfere in any other way. how?"

"You're joking."

"How can this be called a joke? The mayor and you, don't you keep saying it's for the town and the townspeople? I am willing to use my wealth for the townspeople and the town, why can't I do it?"

"In Fu Town, only the mayor is qualified to make decisions and allocations." Mr. Fu leaned forward slightly.

"I am an official of the imperial court, Sizheng, the patrol officer who protects the people and the country. I am the emperor's sword. I only listen to the emperor and follow the national laws. Whether you are a Fuzhen or a Guizhen, only Emperor Taining of Qi can decide and allocate !" Li Qingxian said, holding his hands in the air.

Xu Changren looked confused. Could this be a foolish and loyal official?

Zhou Hen drooped his eyelids.

Mr. Fu stared at Li Qingxian, speechless for a long time.
