Chapter 1216: tax collector family

Lin Surprised: "A baronial family can afford such ostentation?" Whether it's a senior magician who looks very experienced, eight well-equipped knights, or a family crest inlaid with gems, all these need to be paid for. Not cheap. And if a baron family relies solely on the territory to make a living, it really shouldn't be able to afford it unless the family has a mine. And it had to be a gold mine.

"Their family is dedicated to collecting taxes for my old man, the royal estate and the taxes of the knights directly under him. In other words, no matter who becomes the emperor, the Muhashabezi family is the one that is best at collecting taxes."

Well, this is better than having a mine at home.

Do you know which is the strongest law enforcement agency of Meidi? Not cia (Central Intelligence Agency), not fbi (Federal Bureau of Investigation), not pd (police department) everywhere, not usps (U.S. Postal Service), and of course not mib (...who else, just specialize in aliens group), but irs (Internal Revenue Service)!

It is said that the country on the other side of the Pacific Ocean is a country founded on capitalism, and the plutocrats control everything. Rich people represent omnipotence, even if it is a crime, no judge can convict them. Because of these funder fathers, they can easily organize an all-star lawyer team, and truly make big things into small things, and small things into nothing. But irs is specially used to deal with these rich people!

And no matter how brilliant the IRS is in the country of the Magnificent Emperor, or is it another **** organization that dares not touch a tiger's butt, but only dares to invade the middle class and below. The tax collector with the same role is lost in the land. He is definitely a fat job that everyone hates ghosts, but everyone yearns for.

Being able to occupy this position for generations, let alone whether their family is making a lot of money, they don't have any real skills, so they can't sit still.

The tax collector's first priority is to pass the battle. In addition to being able to "persuade" tenants and vassals to pay taxes with their fists when necessary, it is also necessary to ensure that the collected taxes can be safely sent back to the emperor's small treasury, instead of being robbed by people who robbed halfway. Then there is the sensitivity to money.

Hearing the other party point out the identity and background of his master, the old magician wanted to threaten the other party as usual: We are the people of the royal family, who has the courage to challenge the authority of the emperor. This kind of words can be choked to anyone, and it is not harmful, but it cannot be said to people in the royal family.

It is normal for a minister to rebel against the lord and be killed on the spot, otherwise there will be enmity. It doesn't matter if you lose your fat job, you are afraid that you will always take on some thankless tasks and you will always be put on small shoes. As the elder of the family branch, the old magician, in addition to taking care of the younger generation, of course cannot make such a mistake that would bring disaster to the family.

Not to mention the day when it was announced that the crown prince would take over as the prime minister of the empire, the old emperor's sincerity towards his fourteenth son made everyone dare not regard him as a prince who had lost power, and everyone could be bullied. On the contrary, as long as this person has the slightest will, he will be the next leader of the empire, and there will be no accidents, and no one dares to object.

The best situation is to let him live happily far away, so happy that he forgets that an emperor can be such a thing. Anyway, he himself didn't have this ambition at all, and he never had any coveting attitude towards the throne that everyone was rushing for. But I'm afraid of this whim. Everyone is afraid of this prince, isn't it because his character is unpredictable and no one can grasp it.

So the old magician regretted it. I regret that when this child of my grandnephew had thoughts about the beauties on the road, I said too much, the magic robe on that young magician is also a rare good thing. Although the beauty is beautiful, and the robe is precious, none of these can compare to the danger of that prince. I just hope that the other party saves the person, not to change other tricks to kill people.

Lin is not interested in the psychology of the old magician at all. Even if it is easy to detect the other party's thoughts when the box is in hand, Lin never thought of using the box to figure out everyone's attitude. He just patted the young man on the cheek and said, "So, young man from Baron Muhasbezi's family, may I know your name? Or are you going to sit here and not talk?"

This kind of action finally brought back the soul of this noble young man. He touched the place where he had just been kicked, and said in a daze, "You kicked me just now, it hurts so much."

"Well, I will pay attention next time. When a sword is about to cut your neck, I will watch it cut your throat with my own eyes, and then I will save you without stepping out." Lin stood up and turned towards Aza De said: "Well, now do you want to try it? I always say what I say."

"No. You want me to do it, but I won't do it." Azad refused, pouting his lips and puffing up his cheeks, in the posture of a little girl.

Someone feels the chill again. Resisting the urge to summon Shache Khan, he had the urge to hack this guy. On the one hand, it was also because the noble young man, who understood his situation, was holding on to the hem of someone's robe, and his desire to survive was strong. He forced a smile on his face, got up and said, "Your Majesty the Magician, I am from the Muhashebezi family... Well, I am the eldest son now. My name is Efren Muhashebezi. I wonder if there is anything I can do for you?"

Lin felt a little admiration for this strange person who ignored his wet pants and was able to speak seriously. Although someone had a little guess that he would do the weird thing before.

Such as the death of the elder brother, suddenly ascending to the position, and being in such a powerful family - even though it is just a fake tiger - and under the influence of alcohol, so I want to test whether the power in my hand can be used well. In the end, he just kicked the iron plate. But whether the facts are the same as his guess, Lin didn't want to verify it from the young man in front of him.

Anyway, this guy will only become a trick in his journey, so he doesn't need to fight with him, or even probe into his details, and ask what is going on in that stupid head. Lin asked directly: "I want to find the temple of the Goddess of Gold Coins, do you know the location?"

"Goddess of Gold Coins, Ke Yin? Yes, of course I know the location of his temple. Oh, no, it's not that I know, it's my family that has records. It's a small house that's only a little better than a slum, There are a few holy statues, a place where a few old priests bring a few young children. It's just that although she is the goddess of 'gold coins', in fact, their cash boxes are so empty that they can run mice. Your Excellency, If you want to replace it, there may be better choices of other weak divine powers. But if you insist on finding this one, please allow me to send my loyal family knight back to get a confirmed map message, and I will personally lead you go."

Look, this kid is not as messy as he looks, he is still a little smart. Lin nodded in agreement and said, "Okay, let's do as you said. Then should we stand here and wait now? Or?"

After getting the permission, the noble young man just waved his hand and asked the old magician to arrange people to go back. And this faction is the four knights returning home quickly, regardless of whether they are in a densely populated city.

And Ephron, a noble boy, waved his hand and invited: "Three, please get on the carriage. Before waiting for the news of my family's arrival, we are moving towards the xc area. All temples, regardless of whether they are big gods or small gods , are only allowed to be built in the xc area. There is no temple in the dc area."

A certain person's eyes could not help but drift towards a certain His Royal Highness who was leading him around the East City. "I heard that this is a place managed by your family."

"Yeah. But little things like this, I don't know it's a normal thing, okay."

What he said made a magician speechless. Fortunately, Lin never expected this to be a competent leader from the beginning. The real role of the fourteenth prince, Azad Kazarnia, is that he can show his face in this city.

Even if he is deprived of the emperor's right of succession and loses all his noble status, this is still the current emperor's own son. Especially when his mother is still there. A succubus princess, saying that she has no power in the palace, is like saying that a weasel in a chicken coop doesn't know how to eat chickens.

But just before Lin and Azad were about to get into the carriage, the great demon who walked past Evron, Starina grabbed the noble young man's neck with lightning speed and lifted him up, letting him leave. ground. The voice was still the same as the noise, and the corners of the mouth were filled with flames. Starina said: "He sent people to leave, he must be preparing to recruit people to ambush us."

The young man's face turned blue when he was strangled, he scratched and kicked with both hands and feet, but couldn't speak. The old magician anxiously wanted to stop a big demon, but he didn't dare to use powerful attack magic for fear of accidental injury. He could only say in a begging voice: "No, we didn't want to do such a thing~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Never! Put Evron down."

"Put him down, devil. There's no point in strangling him," Lin said aside.

The previous display of power gave the magician a certain amount of weight in the eyes of this gorilla demon. So Starina didn't dare to ignore what Lin said. But she still vetoed: "No, Your Excellency. It is fatal to trust a cunning human being easily. I will not let you make such a mistake. I also don't want to be surrounded by human armies in this kind of place."

Perhaps the latter is what this demon is worried about. Lin thought so. But he still said: "I know, we do have the possibility of being surrounded. But it depends on whether your man has enough face and strength."

"What do you mean, sir?" Starina asked puzzled. Azad seemed to have figured it out a long time ago, but he still looked displeased.

"Your man is the son of the current emperor of the empire. Although I heard that he was deprived of some rights, that kind of thing is harmless to people in the royal family, because blood cannot be taken away. And I also heard that he It is regarded as a natural disaster within the empire, and everyone fears it. If Azad is really as strong as he himself said, then it is best for those big men with military power to ignore this moving natural disaster. So for me, this opportunity is a test. To test how much face Azad has in this city, and this is related to my next move. I understand this matter, and Azad is also more than You get it. So put down that poor thing you've got."
