Such memories made the tension on Mayor Xian's face finally subside completely. He nodded, with a rare smile on his lips, and said: "I see, um... Now that I think about it, it's true.

There was a time when young people were full of energy, and I can understand it now."

Seeing that the mayor's tone began to relax, Ai Luo continued to speak more intensively: "Well, it would be really great to get the understanding of the mayor! So, as the guild president, I will now officially add this little girl of our guild to you.

I sincerely apologize to you for the trouble. Mayor Xian Diggong, I am really sorry!"

With that said, Ai Luo stood up, placed the pet cat in his arms on the sofa, and immediately bowed to the mayor in front of him.

Seeing that Ai Luo was so sincere now, the last trace of vigilance in Mayor Xian's heart finally dissipated. He quickly stood up, waved his hands with a smile on his face, and said: "Oh my! I didn't expect the president of Mermaid Song to be like this.

The basic knowledge! No, no, no, no need to be like this! You are really too polite."

After bowing, Airl stood up. After a polite exchange of words, the two parties sat down again.

Ai Luo smiled and said: "Mr. Mayor, you can forgive the recklessness of our guild's little girl. I really admire your courage! It's really amazing that Bloodyan Town can have such an excellent mayor like you."

What a blessing these people are~~~”

Mayor Xian laughed, his face flushed with laughter, and he waved his hands quickly: "Oh, what are you talking about! My management is really not very good. Sigh... After all, I have been really good at managing this town recently.

I am getting more and more tired. These untouchables have become more and more disobedient to me recently, so much so that I have to kill two people to scare them. You say, can't they live quietly? As a person, I

The mayor is also reasonable, and I won’t make it impossible for them to live at all! Tell me, President Arrow, it’s impossible for me, the mayor, to work in the fields myself, right? If the taxes I want are too high, let them all

If I can't hold on anymore and I run away or die, then who should I ask to do the work for me? Should I go to the ground myself?"

Ai Luo clapped his hands and laughed, nodding his head and saying: "It's just that, we people provide a place for the people below to work, but they don't know how to thank us properly, but they feel that we have done something to them."

Oppression? This is simply unreasonable! They have never thought that without your magic, Mayor Xian, where would they get so many crops to harvest? By then they will not be able to eat enough, how can there be so much nonsense?"

With a snap, Mayor Xian patted his thigh hard. Looking at Ai Luo, his eyes seemed to reveal a color as if he had seen a lifelong confidant. He gave Ai Luo a thumbs up, kept making gestures, and said loudly.

: "Yes, yes! President Ai Luo, what you said is so right! I see, I just let them eat too much! Only when they eat too much can they have the courage to resist me! In their eyes

, I live so freely as the mayor, it seems that every spring and summer I just need to cast some magic and things will be over, and the rest of the time I will be in a daze in my office. Where do so many good things come from? I am also very busy.

Is it okay? I also have a lot of pressure and a lot of things to deal with!"

As soon as he mentioned the troubles he encountered, the mayor immediately moved his seat, sat down on the sofa next to Ai Luo, and said as if he wanted to pour out his bitterness to his friend: "President Ai Luo.

You know what? In fact, I don’t want to keep raising taxes. If I am alone, what is the use of raising taxes so much? Where can I spend so much money? But, I can’t use it, but I have to get through it.

Guanxi, the association requires a lot of money!"

Ai Luo was stunned for a moment and said: "Association? Royal Magician Association? Oh, you joined this association."

Seeing that Ai Luo was not very clear about the association, Mayor Xian was even more sure that the president in front of him was not a magician. Since he was not a magician, he felt more at ease and continued to complain: "Yes! The association!

ah."

"Actually, if I really want to say it, there are really many benefits to joining the association. We magicians are born as civilians. If we want to climb up, the only way is through the Royal Magician Association. But if we climb up here, it is also

It requires a lot of funds!”

"If I can successfully become a court magician, my income and status will be completely different! Who am I to be a small town mayor? Then I will be eating the royal food directly, and I won't have to take care of anything at all.

To give birth, you just need to take good care of yourself, and then do your best to cultivate your own magic power!"

"Well, my magic power is not very strong, and I don't have much time to practice, so I don't want to be a court magician. But on the other hand, even if I am not a court magician, I still want to be able to have something higher-level.

The magician title status! Didn’t they announce the magician grade system last year? So I thought if I could get a higher-level professional title, so that I could get a little more money from the royal family every year, and it would be bright.

It’s also a bit honorable to come out.”

Ai Luo smiled and said, "Professional titles? Well, I've heard of them too. They seem to be divided into five levels, right?"

Mayor Xian nodded and said: "Yes, there are five levels: magician, special magician, magician, great magician, and great magician. And each level is divided into three levels: upper, middle and lower. The first few

Last year I was still a lower-level magician. It was because after such a rank was announced, I wanted to improve my level, so I raised the tax. This year I have been promoted to the upper-level magician. Wait until next year, if I work harder,

If I can obtain the special professional title of "Earth Magician", I can obtain special funding from the royal family. At that time, I can even generate some appeal to attract more people to live and travel in our Blood Swallow Town.

When I get the special appropriation, I can also repair the roads in our town. This kind of thing is a good thing for everyone! But those untouchables don't understand this. Instead, they fight with me all day long.

Go ahead! Sigh... I'm really helpless."

Ai Luo nodded very sincerely and then said: "Mayor Xian, I think you may have some responsibility for your townspeople's opposition to you."

"Huh?" Mayor Xian's original expression towards his confidant suddenly changed, and he seemed a little excited.

But this was what Ai Luo wanted. He continued to put on a smile and said, "I said this because Mayor Xian can have a good conversation. I treat you as a friend, so you may be a little angry when I say something."

If so. Then... I think so. You have always felt that all the townspeople are against you, and you even want to kill a few resisters to make them listen to you. But in this case, on your side,

You alone are really weak."

"If you can give some benefits to some people in the town who support you, for example, as long as they can work hard, do not oppose you, and are obedient, you can get a reduction of about 5% to 10%.

tax, this may immediately make some townspeople change their attitude towards you, and start working harder, regardless of opposing you."

"In addition, you also need to cultivate your own power. Of course! I understand! For a magician with upper-level magic skills, it doesn't matter even if the entire town's citizens rush over to attack you.

!But this is too tiring, right? So, it would be better if you can deliberately win over some people who are willing to work hard for you, and just give them a little favor to get them on your side. In this way

First of all, if someone opposes you, the first person to jump out to defend you will not be yourself, but those losers who have been bribed by you."

"Furthermore, it would be better for you to restrain yourself from committing evil acts in the future. Ah, I am not saying that you should be timid, but I am saying that all acts of committing evil acts should be left to those who are on your side.

Just do it. On the contrary, you have to show an amiable, fair and selfless appearance in front of other townspeople."

"In this way, I believe that the townspeople who were all against you will be divided into two groups, and you can act as a mediating role to appease both sides. I believe that it will not take long, and you can

Maybe he will become a good person in the eyes of all the residents of Bloodyan Town!"

After Ai Luo finished talking, Mayor Xian in front of him was already stunned, with his mouth half open, unable to say a word.

After calming down for a long time, the mayor suddenly stood up, put the staff in his hand aside, and at the same time took off his hat and magic cloak and hung them on the staff, and saluted Ai Luo again.

.

"Dear President Arrow, it is the luckiest thing in my life as a fresh digger that I can meet a friend like you! Could you please tell me your true identity?"

Seeing Mayor Xian's sincere attitude, Ai Luo became a little nervous. He waved his hands repeatedly, but did not stand up. He smiled and said: "It's okay, it's okay! That's all I said. My true identity? Oops.

, I don’t have any real identity, at most I am just a graduate of Lao Teng Shu Academy.”

"Oh! It turns out he is a top student from Lao Teng Shu College!"
