Chapter 7: The Duke!?

"Men!?"

I was puzzled for a while, and Ah Zhai explained to me: "Our ruling system here is like this, the emperor will collect money from the nobles on weekdays. In order to bear the emperor's taxes, the nobles would collect the rich as their subordinates, and then collect taxes from the rich. ”

I was shocked and said, "The cost of living here is already indescribable, and they still have to collect taxes?" ”

Azhai nodded: "Yes, but there is an advantage that you can also be blessed by the nobles." There is also a lot of intrigue in the rich area, and if there is a nobleman who can protect you, it will be a lot less trouble. Rich people who do not have the protection of the nobility generally live a miserable life. Master, you can also recruit some civilians as your subordinates and collect taxes with them. ”

I kind of understand, this is the boss recruiting the younger brother!

I smiled wryly, "And then the commoners and slaves are taxed?" ”

"Not really, how can slaves have the money to pay taxes!"

That...... That's just as well.

"Get out quickly, master, don't let the nobles wait for a long time."

Azhai urged me, I nodded, after all, I have almost understood the strength here, and the nobility is definitely something I can't afford to provoke for the time being. I had no choice but to walk out of the villa, and as soon as I came to the door of the villa, I saw an extended version of the luxury car outside, and I bowed and said, "I've seen Baron Aoyagi." ”

A beautiful slave opened the door of the luxury car, only to see a man walk out of it, this guy is really disgusting, a big man, he is wearing leopard prints all over his body, and he also shows his bronze muscles.

He glanced at me and said to me slowly: "Jiang Cheng, you are really a big face, you have made me wait for so long." ”

I hurriedly said, "Lord Baron, please atone for your sins, I have just arrived and I don't understand anything. ”

Aoyagi said indifferently: "Okay, I'm too lazy to gossip with you." Today I saw your performance in the Colosseum...... Hmm, it's barely enough. I look up to you, and from today onwards, you will mess with me. ”

With that, Aoyagi was going to sit in the car again. I coughed and said, "I'm sorry, Lord Baron, I'm not going to follow you. ”

Aoyagi's body was already halfway inside, and it was very embarrassing for me to let him in or out.

Finally, he turned around and said with anger in his end, "What did you say? ”

"I mean, I don't intend to follow you,......" I said politely, "I think I've made it clear, Lord Baron. ”

"What a guts!"

Aoyagi slapped the roof of the car and shouted angrily: "I want you to give you face, Jiang Cheng, you really don't understand anything!" Did you know that if you didn't have the protection of the aristocracy, you would have a very miserable life in this rich area! ”

I nodded and said, "I know." ”

"Then you still dare to resist me!?"

"Lord Baron, pay attention to your words, what you just said is that without the protection of the nobles, I would have lived miserably. But the problem is, you are not the only nobleman, if you don't protect me, it doesn't mean that other nobles won't protect me......," I said softly, "I, Jiang Cheng, am not a person who toasts and doesn't eat and drink, I just hope that Lord Aoyagi-sama can understand what I want...... Not following a baron. ”

"Oh?"

Aoyagi suddenly lost his anger, and he asked, "What do you want?" Viscount? Don't say you want to follow the Count, just like you......"

I thought for a moment and said, "Marquis...... The Duke is the best, although I don't think it's possible. ”

"Huh!?"

Aoyagi's eyes widened, he was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly laughed: "I was annoyed by you, but now I'm not angry. Because you're the ...... Hahahaha, you're so funny talking...... Hahaha. I really wondered, what kind of thing are you, you thought that the Marquis would take you? ”

I shrugged my shoulders and said, "Not necessarily. ”

"Viscount Lin Wei drove to ......"

At this moment, a voice suddenly shouted. We turned our heads to see another luxury car slowly driving over. Aoyagi's face suddenly became not very good-looking, and he hurriedly bowed and said, "Lord Viscount, what kind of wind blew you here?" ”

From the luxury car, suddenly a luxuriously dressed woman stepped out. She smiled and said, "It's the wind of three rich people." ”

"Three rich men!?"

Aoyagi's eyes widened suddenly, and he said in astonishment: "How can this be ......?"

I shrugged my shoulders and said, "So I said, I'm a bit demanding." ”

At this time, Cao Da and Yun Mozi also walked out one after another, Lin Wei looked at us, and then smiled: "It's the three of you, right?" I won't treat my subordinates badly, if you want to do well in the rich area, follow me......"

Before Lin Wei could finish speaking, another voice suddenly sounded: "Lord Count Xie An has arrived!" ”

"Earl!?"

Lin Wei and Aoyagi's faces changed, and at this time, I saw a sports car slowly driving towards this side. Lin Wei and Qingliu hurriedly rolled their cars to the side, and then stood obediently on the side of the road, and said with a smile: "I've seen Lord Xie An." ”

Out of the car, a man of about thirty years old came out. He glanced at Qingliu and Lin Wei, and said indifferently: "You two, dare to come and rob three rich people?" ”

"Don't dare, don't dare to ......," Lin Wei hurriedly said, "How dare we rob you." ”

Xie An nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll ...... these three people."

"Lord Earl has arrived!"

At that moment, a shout rang out again. Xie An's expression suddenly became not very good-looking, and Aoyagi and Lin Wei were also dumbfounded.

We looked at it, but we couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

On the other side of the road, I saw a horse slowly walking towards this side, which formed a vivid contrast with the luxury cars of these nobles. There was a middle-aged man sitting on the horse, he was wearing armor and holding a missing sword in his hand, but it gave people a fierce momentum.

And beside him, a boy leading a horse was shouting. This grade really makes people can't believe that he is a nobleman.

"Yo, I thought it was an earl who robbed me of someone...... Xie An saw someone coming, and immediately sneered and said, "Isn't this Earl of the evening breeze?" I said Wanfeng, how poor are you now, and you dare to come here to rob people? If you want me to say, can you afford this money? ”

The evening breeze rode on his horse and said coldly, "I can't afford it, but I still want to try." ”

At this time, Ah Zhai approached me and whispered in my ear: "This person is the Earl of Evening Wind, nicknamed the Lord of War. Every nobleman can have his own territory and subordinates, which can be regarded as an army. The nobles could attack each other, and the Earl of Evening Wind, because of the courage and skill of his troops, almost no one in the count was his opponent. ”

I frowned and said, "Then how did he get mixed up like this?" ”

"Being able to fight doesn't mean being ......a steward," Azhai said with a wry smile, "Even though the ruling legion led by him can't find an opponent, they are all masters of wisdom in war, and they don't know how to manage the economy at all, and no matter how much territory they fight, it's useless, and in the end it becomes what it is now." ”

It dawned on me that at this time, the evening breeze jumped off the horse, and he walked towards me, and when he came to me, he stood up straight and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Jiang Cheng, Mr. Cao Da and Mr. Yun Mozi, are you interested in joining my command." I will not collect taxes from you, we all share the blessings and the difficulties. ”

I was surprised: "No taxes? ”

Wanfeng nodded and said, "Soldiers, you shouldn't bully your own people." Solidarity with the outside world is the true character of a soldier. ”

"Don't brag about it, although you don't have taxes, what are you all mixed up with......," Xie An sneered, "All of them are so poor that they can't even afford to go to nightclubs, I heard that you still stay in taverns?" Tut-tut, the iron-like Adjudicator Legion back then could only hide in a tavern and drink beer, and couldn't even afford to order a cocktail. Jiang Cheng, don't listen to him, my taxes here are not high, and I collect ten catties of gold every month. But I promise, if you follow me...... Sneer, we are big fish and big meat, and we are definitely much better off than this poor army. ”

Wan Feng glanced at Xie An, but ignored him, but whispered to me, "I came with the best sincerity. ”

"This ......"

I was hesitating, but a shout of anger shouted: "Get out of the way!" Duke Boren's butler has arrived! Jiang Cheng, Cao Da, and Yun Mozi, why don't you come out to meet you soon!? Don't you want to follow the duke yet! Let the new Ye Yu and Yuanhai also hurry over! I don't have time to waste on you! ”

"What!?"

Our eyes widened, and we were stunned.

Public...... Duke!? ()
