Yanluo District.

A black armed car drove in.

This place is located in the commercial circle of Black Light District. Within a three-kilometer radius, there are three branches of the Steam Association, two Black Light religious churches, and a branch of the city-state guard office.

Public security, medical care, and consumption are all close to urban standards.

Ordinary people with open eyes can be seen everywhere here. They imitate the successful models of the big shots in the inner city, learn from them in business, communication, and drive the fog people, and have achieved considerable success.

Guide chains were spread out around the streets, and some fog residents were cleaning garbage on the streets.

The vehicle was parked and the fog people heard the hum of the car. In their training, this sound meant "big shot" and "danger".

On the other hand, these two warnings mean that you should not approach.

"This is the Yanluo District. The place you are responsible for covers a three-kilometer radius. It is a relatively lively place in the Black Light District."

In the car, Luo Hua chuckled at Xu Shen.

Xu Shen looked out the window along the way. Although it was not as prosperous and clean as the urban area, it was indeed much livelier than the suburbs, and there was no peculiar smell in the air.

"This is Lao Xu's previous office, and it will be handed over to you now."

In front of the two of them was a small building. The red bricks on the outside were a bit old. Luo Hua brought Xu Shen in. The inside was only three meters wide, with a counter and a woman with messy hair lying behind it.

Luo Hua knocked on the table.

The woman woke up from her nap, looked up, and immediately recognized Luo Hua, and stood up hurriedly: "Luo, Mr. Luo..."

"Old Xu is gone. This is the new Xu Shen, who manages Yanluo Street." Luo Hua said indifferently.

The woman looked at Xu Shen and found that he was younger than Luo Hua, less than twenty. She quickly said: "Hello, Mr. Xu!"

Xu Shen quickly waved his hand: "You're welcome."

Some are not used to being treated with such respect.

Luo Hua smiled at Xu Shen and said, "I'm leaving. Just ask her if you have any questions. If you can't solve it, you can also come to me."

"Thank you." Xu Shen nodded and walked him to the door. He looked away after seeing him get in the car and drive away.

Turning back to the small building, Xu Shen saw the woman still standing behind the counter, looking very reserved.

"What do you call me?"

"Master Xu, just call me Zhang Liyao." The woman said obediently, while looking at Xu Shen in front of her... very handsome, but also a bit childish.

There was a secret joy in her heart.

"Sister Zhang, are you someone sent by the bureau?" Xu Shen asked curiously.

"Yeah, but I'm from the Civil Service Department, and I'm here to help you manage your affairs."

"Then what do you mainly do?"

"I will collect taxes from here and give it to you, and when the market beast appears, I will notify you as soon as possible." Zhang Liyao said with a smile, and her reserved look gradually relaxed as we chatted.

"Are you alone here?"

"Um."

"How would you know if the Ruin Beast appeared?" Xu Shen wondered.

Zhang Liyao sat down and said with a smile: "Your Excellency, you must have just come to the first echelon. These managed areas have all installed ruin beast alarms. Once there are traces of ruin beasts, an alarm will be given. If some ruin beasts are good at

Hide, if a murder occurs, the inspection office will report it to me, and I will notify you as soon as possible."

Xu Shen suddenly realized that he had long heard that there were beast sirens in the city, but he didn't expect that there were such sirens.

"Is there a siren nearby? Take me to see it." Xu Shen asked curiously. He had never seen what a beast siren looked like.

Zhang Liyao was stunned and a little embarrassed: "Well...I have been living here alone recently, and I don't wear much makeup."

"Make up?" Xu Shen saw her disheveled appearance and thought of Su Shuang's words about women who must wait patiently and not rush when putting on makeup, so he immediately said: "Okay, then I'll wait for you."

Zhang Liyao didn't expect Xu Shen to be so easy to talk to, and was a little surprised. Seeing Xu Shen's young and delicate face, she couldn't help but snickered in her heart and said, "That's all, Sir, I'll be fine soon."

After 30 minutes, Xu Shen waited for Zhang Liyao.

When Zhang Liyao went downstairs, she was startled by Xu Shen holding a sword. She thought that the newly arrived adult was angry. After all, he had not figured out Xu Shen's temper yet.

But when she saw that Xu Shen was just practicing swinging his sword, she was relieved and secretly angry. These guys from the combat department were really surprised.

"Sir, I'm fine."

"Then let's go."

The two set off, and in a busy commercial building, Zhang Liyao showed her ID and asked for the key to the building's defense room. Xu Shen also saw the appearance of the beast alarm, which turned out to be a metal ball the size of a fist.

When he flipped to the other side of the metal ball, he suddenly smelled a faint rotten smell from the circuit connection port inside.

He got closer and smelled it, and the smell came from the metal ball.

Xu Shen couldn't help but be slightly startled, feeling like he wanted to take it apart and take a look.

There seems to be a piece of rotten flesh and blood inside...

"Is this thing expensive?" Xu Shen asked curiously.

"Expensive, tens of thousands each." Zhang Liyao said.

Hearing this, Xu Shen thought for a while but still didn't open it.

After leaving the commercial building, Xu Shen asked her to take him around the Yanluo neighborhood. After all, it would be an area under his jurisdiction from now on. If the Xu incident broke out, he would at least rush there as soon as possible to avoid the danger.

When I got it, I was unfamiliar with the route and got lost.

"Sir Xu, why don't we take a bus and ask the driver to drive slower?" Zhang Liyao stepped on high heels, her feet were obviously sore from walking.

"Well, will the driver agree?"

"You must agree, otherwise you won't be able to enter our place in the future." Zhang Liyao said domineeringly, while quickly stopping a taxi.

"The fare..." Xu Shen hesitated.

Zhang Liyao was a little speechless. She was transporting a beautiful woman like herself, but she actually had to pay for the fare?

"Of course I'm the one who paid for this small amount of money." She said quickly, smiling like a flower.

"That's really embarrassing." Xu Shen looked embarrassed, but quickly sat on it.

"Drive slowly and stop when you are told."

"Who are you? If you like to sit around, get out of here!" the driver said domineeringly.

But as one of Zhang Liyao's inspection hall identification cards hit him, the driver's brother suddenly changed from a brown bear to a little raccoon, and respectfully handed it back to Zhang Liyao with both hands:

"Sister, you can drive it any way you want me to, including driving it backwards. Just think that the fart I just farted was talking, oh no, the words I just talked are farts."

"Let's go!" Zhang Liyao snorted coldly.

Xu Shen was surprised and said: "Why do you have a certificate from the inspection office?"

"They gave it to me. It's convenient for doing things." Zhang Liyao immediately changed her smile.

"Can you get one for me later?" Xu Shen also wanted it a little bit. After all, the secret of the ruins is too mysterious and ordinary people like the driver may not have access to it.

"It's not a big deal, I'll ask them to deliver it later." Zhang Liyao chuckled.

Soon, the two of them were driving slowly around Yanluo Street in a taxi.

After getting familiar with the situation everywhere, Xu Shen returned to the small building and asked about taxes.

"Here are the tax status of each company. Take a look." Zhang Liyao handed a book filled with forms to Xu Shen.

Xu Shen looked at it twice and felt a little confused: "I don't understand this very well. Just tell me how much the monthly tax is."

"Thirty thousand."

Zhang Liyao looked at Xu Shen's expression.

Xu Shen was startled. He remembered that Captain Mu Xue told him that the minimum was 50,000, but if managed well, it could be as high as 100,000.

"Only 30,000?" Xu Shen frowned and said, "Was it because the management was not good before? Didn't it mean that the deputy captain was in charge before?"

"My lord, you have misunderstood."

Zhang Liyao shook her head quickly and said: "It's not that the management is bad, it's that the previous Captain Xu managed it too well, so many companies have chosen to withdraw from the Ruins Bureau's protection list, and the tax revenue has shrunk as a result."

Xu Shen was stunned, what's the reason?

If the management is too good, the tax revenue will shrink?
