Mecha Star Wars

Hafiz did not have any grudge against the farmers, but someone else.

The story begins earlier when the Gods solicited beauties from the people.

Although this world is dominated by the gods, they don't care much about civil affairs.

As for ordinary people, they have recognized the rule of the gods and entrusted themselves with enfeoffment and self-government. Most of the time, I just regard the Gods as my faith and don’t bother them much. Only when demons attack and it is impossible to resist, will the gods be reported for support.

This slightly divided ruling relationship has reached a certain balance over thousands of years.

Because the gods have a heavenly emperor, the people are not divided into territories, only city-states.

In a sense, the relationship between cities here is similar to the small countries in Central Europe on Lanxing. It's just that above the city commander, there are higher gods, real gods.

Because the Protoss spent most of their time in the imperial capital to resolve internal matters within the Protoss, and did not play with the people among the people, ordinary people also had few opportunities to come into contact with the Protoss.

But since there is a true God, who doesn’t long for the true God’s favor?

Therefore, the conflicts between various city-states that should have been intensified due to the existence of the gods are hidden in weak competition.

A city commander like Hafez naturally spared no effort to show off, spending hundreds of thought on each tribute.

Os City is a trading city built on a transportation thoroughfare. Among all cities, its economic development is one of the best.

Hafiz wants money and money, and treasures and treasures. But every time a tribute gift was given, the reward he received from the Gods was no different from the old guy from Fording City next door who only gave me fruits, vegetables, and those worthless agricultural products.

Lin Fan suddenly thought of a story about Lan Xing, which was probably about two people offering sacrifices to the gods in heaven. A farmer sacrificed his crops, and a sheepherder sacrificed his lamb. As a result, God preferred the sacrifice of sheep and was more biased towards the sheepherders, which led to the final bloody tragedy.

From this point of view, the attitude of the gods here towards the people is quite fair.

But can Hafez be happy? Definitely not! His many gold, silver and jewelry are worth much more than fruits and vegetables!

But this is a manifestation of God's equal love for all living beings, and no matter how unhappy he is, he cannot express it. And knowing that giving rice, noodles and fruits would get the same appreciation, he still had to prepare enough soft treasures every time. You can't tell which time you showed your face in front of the Gods?

It’s just that as time goes by, it’s inevitable that I will feel resentful towards the city commander of Fording City.

But the city commander had always been naughty and would retreat when trouble came. It was not easy for Hafiz to find trouble.

Therefore, for so many years, although Os City and Fording City are adjacent to each other, their relationship has become extremely cold.

It would be fine if it continued like this, but the God Clan issued a recruitment order to recruit beauties in large numbers from the public, which broke the balance.

Hafez seemed to see the ladder to the sky approaching, and immediately sent his men out to search for beautiful women, hoping to take advantage of this opportunity to show his face to the Gods.

If the adults of the God Clan can remember him, Hafez, his future success will be just around the corner...

Another arrest! Lin Fan frowned, then quickly let go, looking at Hafez who was half-blocked by Antonio with a blank look on his face.

Antonio twitched the corner of his mouth and looked sideways at the city commander who was kneeling at his feet holding a wine bottle: "You went to arrest people in their village and were stopped?"

"How can that be possible?" Hafez shook his head decisively, "How can there be beautiful women in their remote areas? There is no such thing."

He only said that there were no beauties, but he did not deny the arrest...

Hafez is really an upright guy...or is this kind of behavior actually normal here? Lin Fan held his breath and pondered.

"Then how can you, a city lord, have any conflicts with the peasants?" Antonio asked, "You still say that you are a good city lord, but this is not something that a good city lord can do!"

"My lord, you have misunderstood!" Hafez quickly explained, "They are not my subjects of Os City. Although the territory is close to us, they are actually under the management of Fording City."

The old man saw that the adults of the God Clan were looking over and nodded quickly: "Yes, we people in Fording City are good at farming. This is a talent inherited for thousands of years."

Antonio didn't expect that there was also the issue of territorial division. He didn't know what to ask for a while, so he just nodded and said to Hafez: "You continue."

When Hafez saw the protoss in front of him, there was no obvious change in his expression. It was not like he meant to reprimand him. He calmed down a little and continued: "Os City has extraordinary financial resources. It is not difficult to find beautiful women. This time, I will buy beautiful women. Wearing clothes and jewelry, dressing up carefully, and carrying jewelry with them into the imperial capital, full of confidence that they want to take the lead..."

Hafez had already begun to imagine the glorious life after being appreciated by the gods, but he did not expect that the beautiful women sent there were all killed, and the money and jewelry sent along with him were not even a trace. Not only did he lose his wife and lose his troops, he was loudly reprimanded outside the palace in front of other city officials.

"Oh...you violated that person's taboo..." The corners of Lin Fan's lips curled up slightly.

She was happy when Hafez was unhappy, but when she thought of those people who were killed, the corners of her mouth suddenly dropped again.

"Sir!" Hafez turned slightly and half-crouched on the ground to reply to Lin Fan, "Hafez did something wrong and angered the Emperor of Heaven, but he still managed to save his life. It is really thanks to the blessing of the true God..."

Lin Fan's expression froze. Even though this is the case, I still don’t forget to show my loyalty to myself. She didn't believe that Hafez wasn't feeling aggrieved.

It was obviously a collection order issued by the Gods, and I worked hard to get it done, but in the end I didn't get any benefits, I only got a lot of scolding. If it were her, even if she was too weak to do anything, she would definitely greet the eighteenth generation of the other party's family in her heart!

How could Hafez not complain? I paid money and I also hired people. Much of the effort he put in was not visible on the surface. It was so humiliating to be treated like this. If the other party was not a god, how could he make the other party feel better?

In fact, all the city commanders who sent beautiful women were reprimanded, and he was not the only one. It's just that he gave away the most beauties and suffered the biggest losses, which made him feel even worse.

What's even more disgusting is that the old man in Fording City couldn't find any beautiful women, and he was afraid that sending nothing would be too abrupt, so he still sent agricultural products as usual.

It was originally a helpless move to make up the numbers, but I didn't expect that because there was no beauty, I got a reward.

"Ha!" Lin Fan couldn't help but sneered, "You are really... thankless for your hard work..."

"Who says it's not the case!" Hafez didn't dare to complain about the Gods, but he didn't have so many scruples about his own people, not to mention that he had long-standing grievances with Fording City.

In the past, when everyone was the same, even if there was some resentment in their hearts, it would not burst out too obviously. This time is different. When no one is getting any favors, the person being rewarded is too conspicuous.

Some of the other cities are far away from Os City, some are so strong that Hafez can't touch them, but he can't handle Fording City, a soft persimmon? All the anger was directed at the old man.

"What does that have to do with these farmers?" Lin Fan frowned slightly.

Although Hafez's anger was somewhat unreasonable and vexatious, Fording's city commander was the head of the city after all. He was better at dealing with Hafez than these unarmed ignorant peasants, right?

"That's the point I want to say." Hafez sighed again, "That old guy is really nothing. He said that the crops that were awarded were all grown by them."

He turned around and spoke to the old man who was kneeling outside the carpet: "He said that every grievance has its owner and every debt has its owner. It's none of his business to ask me to seek revenge from them..."
