In the evening, an invitation was sent to the Lord's Mansion. At night, the moon was covered by thick dark clouds, and it was impossible to see the outside. Tianxing led a team of guards to the largest restaurant in Qingshui. At this time, the restaurant gathered all the powerful minds of Qingshui.
.Soon the restaurant became lively with the arrival of Tianxing.
"Congratulations to the lord for taking over the power of water purification. However, lord, don't do things too harshly. As the saying goes, leave a fine line in everything. I really want to see you in the future. You are doing a great job to Mayor Hu. There is no credit but hard work. After all,
He has also been the mayor here for more than ten years."
This time, both Viper and Warcraft were present, and Viper was the first to attack.
"Oh! Isn't the gang leader too arbitrary? Everyone knows how much money Hu Li has embezzled during his eight years in power. Everyone knows how much money he has embezzled. He bends the law for personal gain and contradicts his superiors. These are trivial matters. He can harbor fugitives or bully civilians.
I have killed him several times, but I have gone too far just by deposing him. I wonder what the gang leader thinks is not too much? Is it not too much for me to make him the lord?"
Tianxing looked at Viper mockingly and said calmly.
"The lord is really eloquent. As expected of a noble man, he could not speak at that time. However, your steps are so fast that none of us can keep up with you. This is not good. Originally, we
It’s also an attitude of keeping things within reach, but you have crossed the line.”
Viper was obviously choked by Tianxing, and then said in a nonchalant manner.
"Gang leader! I can go wherever I want in my own territory. This is the full strength given to me by the Kingdom. I have the final say on everything in my territory. I don't understand. What qualifications do you, a Maple Leaf person, have to say anything about me?"
Is it over the border? It seems like your hand is stretched too far? This seems to be the land of Canglong."
Tianxing felt very ridiculous when he heard what the poisonous snake said, and couldn't help but feel sarcastic.
"Okay! Very good! If you don't have any shame, go to hell!"
Viper knew that Duzui was definitely no match for Tianxing, so he slammed the tea cup on the ground. This was a signal to attack. Upon hearing the sound, the men ambush outside would rush in and cut Tianxing into pieces. This time, Viper carefully planned it.
During the Hongmen Banquet, Tianxing’s strength grew too fast.
The country bumpkin who used to be useless in his eyes has exploded into a powerful fighting force after several months of training in Tianxing. After the last incident, Viper knew that dozens of servants in Tianxing could actually steal his maid from one of his sub-helms.
Not only did he injure all his dozens of subordinates, but he also suffered any losses. Viper felt the danger. He didn't know how Tianxing did it.
Originally, he was going to hire a killer to assassinate Tianxing without anyone noticing, but unfortunately Tianxing took action before him. He not only took control of the military camp but also drove away Hu Li. Tianxing's actions forced him to take action in advance, so he had
I attended today’s Hongmen Banquet, but for some reason, I didn’t see any of my men coming in for a long time.
"Throw it down! Keep throwing it down! All your men are probably sleeping in the prison now. Viper, this is Canglong, not Maple Leaf, and this is my territory. You, Viper, don't have the qualifications to kill me."
Tianxing looked at the confused Viper and said with a smile. As if to verify his words, countless soldiers suddenly rushed in from the outside and quickly surrounded the Viper and the Warcraft, while the wealthy businessmen quickly moved away from them. In an instant, the Viper and the Warcraft
It became clear that they had been betrayed.
"I'm sorry! Venomous snakes, monsters, and the lord once approached me alone. We are all serious businessmen, and the lord represents the kingdom. In order not to be wanted by the motherland, I only need to wrong you."
The president of the Chamber of Commerce said tactfully that when he returned to the bedroom that day, he found that Tianxing was already in his bedroom at some time. After the Tianxing peace talks explained their strong relationship and promised many benefits, he knowingly chose to join Tianxing. After all, there are
Due to the existence of poisonous snakes and wild beasts, their profits are pitifully small, and most of their annual income is turned over to protection fees. Now that the lord Tianxing has taken the lead in getting rid of the other two forces that are more powerful than him, he is of course ecstatic, so he has no intention of doing so.
He hesitated and betrayed the viper.
"Okay! Well done to you!"
Seeing that the form was not good, the poisonous snake looked at the Warcraft, a fierce light flashed in the eyes of the two of them, and they suddenly became angry. Unfortunately, when they mobilized the fighting spirit in their bodies, they suddenly found that the fighting spirit in their bodies could not move. In an instant, several glowing lights appeared.
Han Guang's weapon was placed on their necks, and the surrounding soldiers immediately swarmed in and trapped them tightly.
It turned out that Tianxing had been tipped off by the president of the Merchant Alliance, and Tianxing used this Hongmen Banquet to put on a good show with the president of the alliance. He used drugs to charm the men of Viper and Warcraft, and at the same time, he was poisoned in the tea of Viper and Warcraft.
After taking the San Gong San, the poisonous snakes and Warcraft would definitely not be able to transport any fighting spirit within three hours, so they were quickly subdued, and the money they brought to collect is now among their allies?
Soon the soldiers sent by Tianxing and the Alliance began to purge all the Snake Gang and Beast League members in Qingshui. Groups of soldiers rushed into the headquarters and branches of the Snake Gang and Beast League, filling the town.
They were arrested and all the people were arrested, and the only ones who escaped were the gangsters in other places.
In the end, Tianxing completely blocked the town of Qingshui. In the following days, they continued to capture and capture the returning gang members. The two most powerful forces in Qingshui were quickly wiped out with the cooperation of Tianxing and the Chamber of Commerce. In the beginning, Qingshui was completely wiped out.
The civilians of Water Town discovered something was wrong, and members of the Snake Gang and the Beast Alliance suddenly disappeared from Qingshui.
A few days later, Qingshui Town was boiling. The evil forces that had been entrenched here for more than ten years were eliminated by the great lord overnight. I heard that hundreds of people were arrested this time, most of whom were wanted by the Kingdom and Maple Leaf.
Prisoners, these people will be escorted to the Kingdom or Maple Leaf soon. I heard that the lord is sending people to negotiate the corresponding matters. For a while, everyone started to celebrate as if they were celebrating the New Year. After all, the two major forces have done all the evil things here.
It was finally cleared away, as if a mountain weighing on everyone had been lifted.
At the same time, the lord announced that he would be tax-free for three years. These were great benefits. Tianxing's name was instantly on the lips of all the people in the territory. At this time, Tianxing was counting his property. He had gained from annihilating the two forces.
The cash income is enough to support 10 years of taxes, not counting their other properties and countless materials. It can be seen that the two forces are wealthy, so Tianxing is happily exempted from taxes for three years.
"Due to the existence of poisonous snakes and monsters, everyone's interests have suffered a lot in the past. Now I have completely eliminated this cancer from Qingshui. I have called you together today mainly for two things. The first thing is
, I have decided to hand over the properties they left behind to your management through bidding. Those who are interested in these properties can go to the government office to register later."
As soon as Tianxing's words fell, everyone was excited. In the past, due to the monopoly of poisonous snakes and monsters, they could only do small businesses that these two forces did not do. Now the lord actually put this big cake up for auction. Can you be unhappy?
?
"The second thing is that you all know that the territory is very barren and is not suitable for growing various crops. In order to be able to complete the tasks assigned by the kingdom every year, I have decided to impose a tax on heavier goods entering and leaving the territory. I have tentatively set a 20% tax rate.
Regarding taxes, if you have any suggestions, you can put them forward now and discuss them with us."
Looking at the crowd who were excited by the first good news, Tianxing came up with the idea of levying taxes. Although they had levied taxes in the past, they were only for small caravans passing by Qingshui and civilians in the territory. Today, Tianxing first
He proposed to distribute the remaining properties of Viper and Warcraft in the hope that his tax proposal would be passed smoothly.
"Lord, we have no objection to taxation, but is 20% too high? Do you think it can be lowered a little?"
When they heard that Tianxing was going to tax, everyone discussed it and the president of the Chamber of Commerce made a suggestion. They still couldn't accept the increase in taxes, but they thought that in the past, they had to hand over profits that were much higher than the tax to Viper and Warcraft, and now 20%
They can still reluctantly accept it, but businessmen are all about maximizing profits, and they still hope that Tianxing can reduce taxes.
"Everyone! I also know that 20% is a bit high, but you also know that because of my madness, I exempted the people of the territory from agricultural taxes for three years. Therefore, all the income of the territory can only rely on taxes on circulating commodities. This is the lowest
The standard is too high. If you think it is too high, then I will have no choice but to form a caravan myself to raise insufficient taxes."
Tianxing said with an embarrassed look on his face. It obviously means that lowering taxes is okay. Then the conditions just now are waived. I will lead a team of people to take over the business of Lone Wolf and Warcraft, and you will have no share. It’s not that Tianxing doesn’t want to, but that
He simply did not have the strength to accept the business left by Viper and Warcraft. There was no source of goods, not to mention no sales, and the most important thing was that he had no business talents. Tianxing couldn't lead people to do it by himself, so he had no choice but to give up the cake.
.
"Then Lord, you cannot use other reasons to increase taxes in the future. If you agree to our conditions, we will accept 20% of the taxes."
After hearing what Tianxing said, everyone was anxious. What would they do if Tianxing organized a caravan on his own? Everyone immediately compromised and put forward another condition.
"Okay! I promise you this. Qingshui Town will not increase other taxes for you."
Seeing that the tax issue was settled, Tianxing generously agreed to their conditions. After all, Tianxing still had a lot of things to do. As long as the tax issue was settled, everything else would be easy to handle.
