Chapter 17 Souvenirs [5600,

What Xu Muzhi said was a bit unreasonable.

But if you really want to say what he said is wrong, you can't.

Although the wolf demon just said that he lost, you should get off the ring if you lose.

As long as you are still standing in the ring, theoretically it can be considered that you have not lost yet.

Of course, all these are reasons, mainly because Xu Muzhi had to find an outlet.

Xu Muzhi's attack was not heavy, so the wolf demon that was kicked away quickly got up from the ground.

Xu Muzhi was angry, but he still couldn't do such a thing as taking advantage of others' danger.

Although it's not a big deal, this shame is something that the wolf demon cannot accept.

Just as it was about to transform and rush forward to fight Xu Muzhi to the death, it was pulled back by the Jackal King.

The wolf demon turned around with a ferocious face and bared its fangs, and saw that it was the Jackal King, and immediately put away its fangs.

At the Jackal King's signal, the wolf demon retreated to the back.

"Today's insult to my country, Ten Thousand Monsters, will be recorded." King Jackal threatened in a cold voice.

"let's go!"

After the Jackal King finished speaking, he turned around and prepared to leave. The people from the Buddhist Kingdom in the Western Regions did not say anything harsh and turned around to leave.

"Slow down!" Just when they were about to leave, Wu Zhao called out to them.

The Jackal King and the leading third-grade Arhat looked back at Wu Zhao. The Jackal King was the first to speak: "Emperor Wu Chao, aren't you still planning to let us go?"

Wu Zhao ignored the teasing and threats in King Jackal's voice and said in his usual tone: "Since you lost the battle in the arena, you should submit the contract and transfer the management rights of the shopping town."

This is also a normal process, but it happened to me at this moment, making both the Jackal King and the third-grade Arhat feel depressed for a while.

But no matter how depressed they were, they lost the battle in the ring, and they lost completely.

Especially the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Monsters was tortured twice.

The Jackal King and the Third-Rank Arhat, after completing a series of rights transfers and submitting contracts, directly left Fengjing with their huge envoys in the past few days.

The envoys from both sides left, and everyone on the Wu Dynasty side was happy.

Wu Zhao also immediately announced that the thirteen states of the Wu Dynasty would be exempted from agricultural taxes for three years.

When a new emperor ascends the throne, it is a basic duty to be exempted from taxes.

This was also done when Emperor Shun ascended the throne.

It's just that Emperor Shun's situation was a little worse back then, so he was only exempted from agricultural taxes for half a year.

The situation in Wu Zhao was somewhat better than that of Emperor Shun.

First of all, Emperor Shun is gone, and the expenses for Emperor Shun's cultivation are left.

This money can be fully subsidized into taxes.

Of course, the bulk is still the income from the two shopping towns.

This time, the Wu Dynasty not only gained pricing power, but also management power.

These two things can increase the Wu Dynasty's income by three million taels of silver every year.

Therefore, Wu Zhao is fully confident in exempting agricultural taxes for three years.

Wu Zhao has another consideration for exempting agricultural taxes for three years.

Support farmers.

Although Minsi's farm has made great progress.

But whether it is the renovation of water canals, the renovation of farmland, or the construction of reservoirs.

These all cost money.

The court can fund the construction of the reservoir, but the farmers have to pay for the part that continues downward.

When farmers are asked to invest their own money without seeing any benefits, the resistance will inevitably be very great.

But now that you are exempt from taxes for three years, won’t you have money to invest yourself?

So Wu Zhao seemed to be exempted from agricultural taxes for three years, but in fact, what Wu Zhao wanted was much more than this small amount of agricultural taxes.

Three years is enough time for Min Si to make all the promises made by the farmer beforehand.

By then, food production will double and the population will grow rapidly.

Wu Zhao still needs to worry that there will be no agricultural tax revenue?

Wu Zhao's decree was announced live directly through the formation.

So it is conceivable how much public support and public opinion Wu Zhao was able to gain once such a decree came out.

For the general public, it is more of a surprise for a woman to become emperor.

More in-depth things can only be used as conversation materials after dinner.

But the three-year tax exemption provided by Wu Zhao directly enriched their pockets.

The meaning is completely different.

Whoever can bring them benefits and more generous income will definitely be supported to the death.

As for whether he is a man or a woman, it doesn't matter anymore.

Suddenly, whether it was within Fengjing or the other thirteen prefectures, the sound of the mountains calling for long live could be heard.

In this first step after ascending the throne, Wu Zhao was completely on the ground.

When Wu Zhao accepted the call from everyone, the most disappointed ones were the eldest prince and the third prince.

They already knew about Wu Ang becoming the master of business before entering the capital.

What's more, I didn't see that Wu Ang was shouting most energetically right now?

After the events in the arena were over, Wu Zhao also prepared a banquet for the officials.

The banquet was in the evening, and it was only noon now.

So everyone still has a few hours of free time.

Of course, this was also the time Wu Zhao deliberately left for them.

Let them think carefully about how to assist themselves, and ask some of the ministers who have placed chess pieces outside to contact them about the chess pieces they have placed outside.

Ning Chen has no such needs.

Ning Chen is alone.

With plenty of time, Ning Chen also met Hui Jing's previous request.

I took Huijing on a shopping spree in the east and west cities.

"Sister, you've been here for so long, and I haven't taken you around Fengjing properly yet. Just take a look at what you need and just pick it up." Ning Chen said to Bai Yaoyao.

Bai Yaoyao obviously didn't have much interest in these common things.

However, Bai Yaoyao told Ning Chen something else.

"After the arena is over this time, I will return to Marquis Dingguo."

As soon as Ning Chen heard that Bai Yaoyao was leaving, he immediately pressed three buttons to express that he could not accept this fact:

"Sister, if you leave, who will protect me?"

After Bai Yaoyao waited for Ning Chen to finish speaking, he said: "Our Lord Marquis said before that each of us will protect you for three months.

If there were no events in the arena, I should have returned to the Great Wall of Righteousness by now."

"Senior sister, I can talk to Mr. Hou. I believe Mr. Hou will give me this face?" Ning Chen took the initiative to propose to Bai Yaoyao.

Bai Yaoyao said: "I can choose to listen to the order of the Marquis, or I can choose not to listen."

What he said really saved Ning Chen's face.

After taking a look at the disappointed Ning Chen, Bai Yaoyao said: "The people on the other side of the Great Wall of Righteousness need me even more."

After hearing Bai Yaoyao's words, Ning Chen suddenly became clear: "Senior sister, I am actually very important too. If I successfully establish a hundred schools, I might be able to solve the problem of the Great Wall of Integrity."

Although Ning Chen doesn't even know what the Great Wall of Righteousness is, he still has this confidence.

Bai Yaoyao did not deny Ning Chen's words: "If you can really successfully open up hundreds of schools, the problem of the Great Wall of Integrity may really be solved."

Before Ning Chen could speak, Bai Yaoyao changed the subject and said, "But now, the Great Wall of Righteousness must not tolerate any mistakes. If there are any mistakes in the Great Wall of Righteousness, it will be the end of the human race and the holy way."

Ning Chen continued to work hard to persuade him to stay and said: "Senior sister, in fact, if I work hard, I can open up a few more holy paths. My ability to open up holy paths is quite good."

"Even if you can really open up hundreds of holy paths, when these holy paths grow, someone will still need to guard the Great Wall of Integrity."

Bai Yaoyao said this, what else could Ning Chen say.

"Senior sister, when are you leaving?" Since he couldn't keep him, Ning Chen could only think of a way to make up for it in the next period of time.

"I will go back after the Marquis confirms the person who will protect you." Bai Yaoyao said.

When mentioning this, Ning Chen immediately said: "Senior sister, anyone can do it.

Xu Muzhi is not good, he wants strength but not strength, he wants ability but not ability.

Senior sister, you also know what kind of temper Xu Muzhi has.

It would be nice if he didn’t bring me any trouble of death.”

Xu Muzhi, who was accompanying him, did not expect that while he was walking, the pot fell from the sky and hit the bull's-eye.

"Even if you ask me to protect you, I won't come." Xu Muzhi retorted decisively.

Ning Chen immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "If you say that, I will feel relieved."

"you……"

Xu Muzhi was furious on the spot.

"Old Xu, it's not that I don't look down on you. You said your strength is only level four.

And I have to rely on the weapon path I opened to break through.

In terms of ability, it would be unfair to say that you have almost no ability.

But to say that you have outstanding abilities is to tell lies.

I guess you, Lao Xu, are on Mr. Hou’s side, mainly as the leader of the atmosphere team.

Whoever wins, you are responsible for helping arrange a celebration banquet, making the atmosphere more lively and so on.

Of course, we should talk about it or not, you are still lucky..."

Before Ning Chen could finish speaking, Xu Muzhi walked away with his sword.

Looking at Xu Muzhi's retreating figure, Ning Chen murmured: "I really don't have any eyesight at all. You have to let me tell you to leave."

When Xu Muzhi walked away, Ning Chen turned around and said to Bai Yaoyao with a smile on his face: "Senior sister, the eyesore is gone, let's have a nice stroll."

"Okay." Bai Yaoyao nodded and agreed.

Ning Chen took out one of his waist cards and handed it to Xiaodouding Huijing.

"If you want to buy something with my badge, just tell them to go to my house and get the money."

Before Xiao Douding could get happy, Ning Chen gave Xiao Douding a patch: "Look at the flowers yourself. If there are too many, I will say that you stole the badge. When the time comes, they will send you to the government, and I will

do not care."

This basin of cold water immediately extinguished half of Little Douding's hopes.

Xiao Douding pursed his lips and asked, "You said you paid for everything."

Ning Chen said: "Yes, I will pay for everything that is reasonable. If it is beyond my ability, how can I pay for it? You can't just say that you want to buy Fengjing City, and I will also pay for it for you."

Xiaodouding thought for a moment and felt that Ning Chen was right.

"Then you have to give me a number. Otherwise, how do you know what is reasonable?" Xiao Douding added.

Ning Chen said: "You can control this yourself. If I tell you the number, you will think I'm cheating if I don't give you the number. So you can control it yourself."

After finishing speaking, Ning Chen added: "It's less than an hour before the market closes. You don't have much time to discuss with me. Why don't you take some time to shop."

Huijing raised her head and glanced at the sky, then turned around and ran away.

After sending away the other light bulb, Ning Chen finally became quiet.

Only Ning Chen and Bai Yaoyao were left.

"Senior sister, I will buy you some Fengjing specialties and take them back with you when you go back." Ning Chen said to Bai Yaoyao.

Bai Yaoyao nodded, and then followed Ning Chen all the way to the place where Fengjing sells specialties.

The place that Ning Chen calls selling specialties is actually Baibaolou.

Baibaolou is a place that sells various items and exercises needed for practice.

The boss behind Baibaolou is actually Wu Ang.

Of course, Ning Chen is now considered the boss of Baibaolou, but it has not been announced yet.

Although Bai Yaoyao didn't know what Ning Chen planned to do, she still followed Ning Chen in.

"Hey, Uncle Champion, you're here." For a potential big customer like Ning Chen, the shopkeeper of Baibao Tower must know him.

"Take me to your Treasure Pavilion." Ning Chen said directly to the shopkeeper.

Naturally, the shopkeeper did not dare to neglect, and quickly led Ning Chen and Bai Yaoyao to the Treasure Pavilion behind the Baibao Building.

This is the place where good things are really stored. Most of the things are good things that are only auctioned and not sold.

Of course, for big customers like Ning Chen, the auction can be left alone.

After entering the Treasure Pavilion through a complicated formation, the shopkeeper asked Ning Chen: "I don't know what you need, Uncle Champion. I'll help you find it."

"Help me find a full-body armor, one that is light and has the highest defense level." Ning Chen said to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper was also a discerning person. When he saw Ning Chen's request and then looked at Bai Yaoyao next to him, he knew that Ning Chen was not asking for it for him.

"Uncle Champion, please wait a moment, I'll go and help you right away."

Bai Yaoyao stopped the shopkeeper of Baibao Tower and said to Ning Chen: "I don't need any armor. And for those who fight with me, ordinary armor will not have any effect."

After listening to Bai Yaoyao's words, the shopkeeper said: "Girl, you are looking down on our Baibao Pavilion. Our Baibao Pavilion collects treasures from all over the world, and the things in the Treasure Pavilion are even more precious among the precious. How can they be ordinary?

Armor."

After a pause, the shopkeeper said: "Girl, if you want to say that there are things that can protect against first- and second-level attacks, our Zhenbao Pavilion really doesn't have them. But for treasures that can protect against third-level attacks, our Baobao Pavilion can still come up with one or two.

.”

"Girl, I see that you are young. No matter how powerful you are, you are only at the fourth level. I still have many treasures in the Treasure Pavilion that can protect you from the fourth level."

Ning Chen heard the shopkeeper speak so confidently and said directly: "Bring me two pieces of armor that can protect against the third grade."

When the shopkeeper heard that Ning Chen asked for the third grade, he couldn't help but remind Ning Chen in a low voice: "Uncle Champion, the armor that can protect against the third grade is the treasure of my treasure pavilion. I think the fourth grade..."

Ning Chen interrupted the shopkeeper and said: "My senior sister is of the third grade. Anyone who can fight with my senior sister must also be of the third grade. If you give me someone who can defend against the fourth grade, do you think it will be useful?"

The shopkeeper trembled when he heard that Bai Yaoyao was a third-level master.

Regardless of the third level of that system, they are already in the extraordinary ranks.

And I just turned a third-grade person into a fourth-grade person.

This was completely seeking death. Fortunately, Bai Yaoyao didn't care about this matter with herself.

Otherwise, I would be cold by now.

But now there is another difficulty.

"What's wrong? You were just bragging and deceiving me." Ning Chen asked with a calm face.

The shopkeeper quickly shook his head and waved his hands and said, "I can't fool anyone, but I dare not fool the champion uncle."

"Since I don't have you, just bring it to me."

The shopkeeper explained awkwardly: "Uncle Champion, it's not that I won't let you get it, but it's because you need the boss's nod to use this treasure."

Ning Chen thought it was something, but this matter was nothing to Ning Chen.

"You mean Wu Ang, right? Contact Wu Ang now and tell me to come to the store to buy something." Ning Chen said to the shopkeeper.

When the shopkeeper heard Ning Chen call Wu Ang by his name, he also understood that the relationship between Ning Chen and Wu Ang was unusual.

In this case, the shopkeeper has nothing to hesitate about.

"Uncle Champion, please wait a moment, I will contact my boss right away."

"Hurry up, I'm in a hurry."

The shopkeeper trotted off to contact Wu Ang.

"Boss, the champion has come to the store and wants to buy third-grade armor." The shopkeeper also reported to Wu Anghui briefly and clearly.

After hearing what the shopkeeper said, Wu Ang thought for a moment and asked, "Did he come alone or with someone?"

The shopkeeper said: "Uncle Champion brought his senior sister with him. I see that the third-grade armor seems to be bought for Senior Sister Champion."

After hearing these words, Wu Ang had a plan in mind.

"Remember, all our future properties will have Ning Chen's shares. From now on, you will treat Ning Chen just like you treat me. You don't need to report to me what Ning Chen wants."

The shopkeeper knew about this for the first time and said quickly: "Yes, I know. I will go and apologize to Uncle Champion right now."

Wu Ang said: "There is no need to apologize this time. Just give him the armor as normal later and sell it to him at the normal price."

The shopkeeper stopped Wu Ang from making such an arrangement and didn't understand why Wu Ang made such an arrangement.

"My boss, didn't you say that Uncle Champion will also be our boss in the future? Then why do you have to..."

Wu Ang interrupted the shopkeeper and said, "If you don't understand this, just do as I say. You can just send the money to my house when the time comes."

"Yes. Boss." Although the shopkeeper didn't know why Wu Ang did this, since it was Wu Ang's order, the shopkeeper just followed it.

When the shopkeeper came back, he already had a precious garment as thin as cicada wings in his hand.

"Uncle Champion, this is the treasure of our Zhenbao Pavilion. The Tiancan Treasure Clothes.

This is the silk spun by the second-grade silkworm, mixed with deep-sea iron essence.

It took hundreds of craftsmen five years to make this precious garment.

This garment is impervious to water and fire, and has no fear of cold or heat.

It can block a third-grade warrior's full-strength attack twice, but after two times it can only weaken a third-grade warrior's attack by one-third."

Ning Chen was very satisfied with this treasured garment and asked directly to the shopkeeper: "How much does it cost?"

The shopkeeper said: "The prince said that this is the treasure of the store. Even if it is sold, it should be auctioned normally.

But since you want it, Uncle Champion, the prince said that you can transfer it to Uncle Champion for two million taels."

Ning Chen took out a box from his life stone. Inside the box was the profit that Wan Hong had given Ning Chen before.

"This is a two million tael banknote, please click it." Ning Chen said to the shopkeeper.

"No need to order, Uncle Champion, you won't go wrong with the money you gave me," the shopkeeper said flatteringly.

"Okay, in that case, I'll leave first."

Ning Chen took Bai Yaoyao out of the Baibao Building. Ning Chen handed the treasure clothes to Bai Yaoyao and said, "Senior sister, a local specialty."

Bai Yaoyao looked at the treasured clothes given by Ning Chen and said, "You need it more than me, so keep it for yourself."

Ning Chen shook his head and said: "Senior sister, I have someone to protect me here. You are different, so this thing is more suitable for you. And I said, do you have to bring some local specialties back to me, senior sister?"

"This is not a local specialty." Bai Yaoyao said.

Ning Chen said with a smile: "Senior sister, everything in Fengjing is a local specialty of Fengjing, and this is no exception. Just take it, senior sister. If you take it, I can feel more at ease."

Bai Yaoyao thought for a moment, took the treasure clothes, and said, "I bought this."

"Sister, you don't have to be polite to follow me, not to mention that I am now Wu Ang's shareholder.

He had to give me back a lot of the money I spent.

So, senior sister, you don’t have to be polite to me.

If you're polite, senior sister, just think of me when you wear this precious garment in the future." Ning Chen jokingly said to Bai Yaoyao.

Bai Yaoyao nodded.

Seeing Bai Yaoyao accepting his gift, Ning Chen also laughed: "Senior sister, let's continue searching to see if there are any local specialties that are suitable to take back to Marquis Dingguo and the others."
