Chapter 494 is low-key to the end

At the behest of several aristocratic youths with powdered faces, a man in the butler's costume jumped off his horse and ran towards Dip. Julia's guards hurriedly blocked the way, but the butler did not insist on approaching, he took out a handkerchief from his bosom, covered his nose, and said with a look of disgust: "Horse seller, ask you, how do you sell these two rabbit girls?"

Dipp's eyelids lifted and he looked at the men. He didn't want to argue, so he replied very directly: "Not for sale!"

"Not for sale?, is it a gift?" the housekeeper seemed to be talking to himself, "Which one is it for?" Can you reveal it, and my young master can also talk to him?"

"I won't give it away! Not sold. Dipu was still lying on the chaise longue, not moving at all.

"Ahem——!

Hearing a loud cough behind him, the housekeeper knew that his young master's interest had risen. He frowned slightly, took out a money bag from his arms, and threw it at Dip's feet: "This is a deposit, let's take the two rabbit girls." You can go to the Count's Court of Sardinia in the city and get the rest of the money. Rest assured, money will not be less for you. ”

The housekeeper felt that he was really "kind-hearted". Rabbit girls like Nilo and Nelly, the price in St. Louis City is nothing more than three or four thousand gold coins. It is that the supply is very small, and it has always been a tight supply. Therefore, the housekeeper was not prepared to bargain, and if Di Pu knew each other, he was ready to buy the two rabbit girls for 10,000 gold coins, and let this "horse seller and trader" hillbilly make more money.

"Eat, eat, eat——!" Julia's guards were all snickering. They all knew that Dipu was rich, and if nothing else, he could borrow more than 300 million gold coins with a single loan, and the people who came to his door were several famous banks on the mainland. How can they sell people? Tens of thousands of gold coins are not in the eyes of the first general at all.

Albert was winning, and the chips in front of him were piled up into a small mountain. So he was in a very happy mood: "Boss, pick that star! Those who are fighting on the street want your woman, you can also pay for it, and buy these horses from the street fighters." Hahaha...... Grass! dwarf winter melon, and peeking at the cards of labor?", and Niro and Nelly also took the opportunity to burrow into Dipp's arms, like two frightened little white rabbits. Rubbing, rubbing, rubbing.

"Hehehe!" Dipu didn't want to be verbose with the butler, "It's really not for sale, please go back." Dip motioned to the butler to pick up the purse. He really didn't want to be troubled, so he had a particularly good temper today.

The aristocratic youths heard the refusal. His face sank. But in front of the public, robbing the people's daughters? Maybe only Dipu, a slut, dares to do it, and these few still have to pay attention to aristocratic demeanor. So they lifted the reins in a huff and drove their horses away. And the butler didn't care about the money bag on the ground, he was a petty officer pulling the city gate, secretly giving orders......

"My lord, they might have trouble!" said Julia, whispering. These guards are all looking at the six ways. And it's much more responsible than the bastards of Hauff.

"Cut!" Dipu waved his hand, not damaging at all. Although he wants to keep a low profile, he will never be afraid, especially since the other party is just a butler of the earl's house and a petty officer guarding the city gate.

And Niro and Nelly are alive again. Nelly said to Niluo pitifully: "Sister, the master must keep a low profile, and the slave sisters will be sold!"

Niluo also had a playful face: "There's no way! The old man is bitter, and our sisters are even more bitter!"

So Nelly pretended to cry: "Master, you forgot about the slave sister——!s!

"Bang!" the two bunny girls were hit twice on their buttocks.

"Giggle——! master, the slave's little tail hurts, can you touch it?"

"Hee-hee-hee——! sir!

It seems that these days are spoiled, and the two rabbit girls are not afraid of Dipu at all. Dipu shook his head helplessly, and watched the two sisters snort with pampering. But at this moment. The petty officer came over with a couple of soldiers.

"Excuse me, are you the head of here?" the little officer's conversation was quite normal.

Dipu was still lying on the chaise longue, not moving: "Yes." What's the matter?"

The little officer frowned slightly: "Then collect the tax here first, and you can leave after collecting it!"

"Hmm!you'll count!" Dipu nodded.

Today's Dipu is very honest. In order not to be troublesome, he has strictly followed the rules of entering the city. Knights' spears, bows and crossbows, and other weapons that were forbidden to be brought into the city had long been included in the storage ring by Dipu. All they carried with them were short weapons such as swords and other protective weapons.

So the officer looked around and didn't find the slightest problem. So he deliberately made a mistake: "The entrance tax to the city will be drawn by one, and it will be given to ...... Seven Fire Cloud Horses!"

Dipu immediately frowned. Anyway, he was also a lord, and the amount of the tax on the entrance to the city. I also know a thing or two. One out of ten, this tax is already on the high side. However, considering that this is the imperial capital, it is barely acceptable. However, in general, there is one horse per person. Only a nominal toll tax is required. Moreover, there are only about 60 horses here in Dipu, or is there a mixture of pack horses and Huoyun horses, but I didn't expect to collect taxes on seven Huoyun horses? Obviously, Dipu was blackmailed.

After hesitating for a while, Dipu raised his hand, but still chose to back down: "Then pay the tax on seven Huoyun horses." You do the math, how much is it in total. ”

The officer was stunned. But after thinking about it, he gritted his teeth and said, "One horse is one thousand and two gold coins, a total of eight thousand four." ”

Another lion opened his mouth. Franco had just bought a horse, so how could Dip not know the market price of the fire cloud horse?

The people in front of and behind the convoy, they had already noticed this place when they had noticed that Dipu was able to cut into the city. I didn't expect the officer to charge such a high entry tax, so they all slowly gathered around and watched the show from a distance.

"Hmm!" Dipu continued to nod, "then get the tax stamps and complete the list of tax items." I'll pay right away. ”

"This ...... Sir!" the officer was immediately surprised. He reminded, "That's more than 8,000 gold coins?"

The reason why the little officer wanted to make things difficult for Dip was, of course, related to the butler just now. It is best for Dipu to raise objections and disputes, and then he can find out the bottom of Dipu by the way, and the housekeeper can also use both soft and hard to obtain the two rabbit sisters in the future. It's not that you have to charge such a high tax, or retaliate or anything.

And Dipp was too low-key this time. In fact, as long as he wears armor and shows a knight's spear or something, it is easy for people to confirm the identity of the papal knight, and the junior officer does not dare to be embarrassed at all. In other words, it is okay to find a certificate to prove that he is a nobleman. Because whether it is a papal knight, a human nobleman, or an official status, or a knight of the childish chrysanthemum, they all do not need to pay any entry tax, let alone queue, and it is not at all that this little officer can afford to provoke.

But today's Dipu, he is going to keep a low profile to the end: "Here! Find it!" Dipu stood up, took out a stack of golden tickets from his arms, deliberately took out a denomination of 100,000 gold coins, and handed it to the officer. It is impossible for Dipu not to be angry, and at this time he also wants to make a little trouble for the little officer.

"Uh......" Taking the golden ticket, the little officer was stunned. It's not that the tax collection office at the city gate can't find the money, it's entirely because the little officer has never seen such a large gold ticket!

"Why? I've never seen so much money, poor soldier!" Dipu finally couldn't help but use his taunting skills. He snatched the golden ticket, "First open the tax bill, and then move the money you found." When I go to meet His Majesty, I will ask, has the empire become a den of bandits? Oh, don't worry, I won't talk nonsense without evidence, I'm afraid that someone will sue me for slander. ”

Saris on the side glanced at Dipu, "leaned", and threw away the bad deck of cards in his hand.

Dipu spoke loudly, and more and more people gathered. The little officer was sweating on his forehead, how could he ...... this? He already knew that Dipu was definitely not a horse dealer. With such a big tone, he was able to "meet His Majesty"! Now it is no longer a question of finding out the bottom of the matter, but a question of helping oneself.

However, the little officer was indeed experienced, and seeing that Dipu and his party were dressed as foreigners, the little officer was in a hurry and shouted: "You have so much money with you, and there are a few aliens, and you are still lining up in the back, so I have long suspected you." Just now it was a temptation, and you were full of horses' feet. Honestly, come with me!"

In fact, the little officer was a little clever. In public, he did not ask about Dip's identity. As long as Dipu followed him into the office of the tax collector's office, he would admit afterwards that he had made a mistake. And the reason why such a high tax is levied is a kind of temptation! To put it more ugly, if Dip's status is indeed very high, then the petty officer, whether he kowtows to apologize or slaps himself, will not be able to save a little face in front of everyone.

But is Dip so talkative? He asked with a smile, "Then what do you suspect?" Say, say it out loud, let me also increase my knowledge!"

......

At this time, at the gate of the city, two teams of people walked out one after another. The first team was led by Director Leo of Library Division 2. He took a dozen people with him, ready to greet Princess Chenel, who would arrive two days later. In fact, when Princess Chenel entered the territory of the Verona Empire, the second library had already sent more than 200 secret guards to protect it in secret. And Leo's departure from the city this time is mainly for the last protection.

If the second team is dark, then the other team is brighter. More than 40 reporters were in the carriage, and they were also there to greet and interview Princess Chenel.

And in one of the carriages, Charlie, who was the first to come back, was carefully teaching Felicia, an intern female reporter who accompanied him this time: "When you meet Her Royal Highness the Princess, don't be anxious. There are some things that I can't ask too deeply because of gender, but you're different, so you have to ...... from various angles."

"Yes, Senior Charlie!" Felicia, who had a weak literary face, nodded earnestly. (To be continued.) )
