"You!" There was no one else around. Alice seemed to feel that she could not deal with Meng Han, and she was angry and anxious. However, she immediately realized something and asked in shock: "You, what did you just say?"
"Sister, my lord said that he has a way to resolve the curse of twins." After watching the show for a while, Grace, who was anxious but unable to reach out, finally found a chance to interrupt: "Besides, my lord also made it rain here yesterday.
.”
"Raining?" It was obvious that this extraordinary celestial phenomenon caused Alice to fall into a state of trance.
When Alice recovered from the shock, Meng Han had already taken out the letter of appointment signed by the King of the Principality from his pocket and presented it to her. At the same time, he also took the letter of appointment within ten years.
Proof that all taxes have been paid.
"Are you really the lord?" Alice was completely stunned when she saw the letter of appointment. She couldn't believe it. However, when she saw the tax payment certificate at the back, her eyes instantly lit up: "Two hundred
A gold coin? My lord, you actually paid a tax of two hundred gold coins?" As soon as she said this, even Grace looked at Meng Han with a hint of a fool.
"Sir, one year's tax here doesn't cost even one gold coin!" Grace became bolder when she heard about money-related things, and quickly interrupted, reminding her anxiously.
"Do you think I am willing?" Thinking of this, Meng Han became angry. The two hundred gold coins that His Majesty the King rewarded him were just for him to keep warm on the road, and then they were all snatched away by the Earl. Now.
The two women brought up old matters again, which naturally made him feel even more unhappy.
However, Meng Han just had this idea flashing through his mind, but did not say it out. There was no expression on his face that showed that he was in a helpless mood. Instead, he looked relaxed and snorted: "Two hundred
One gold coin buys ten years of taxes, which is a great deal."
At this time, Grace and Alice didn't say anything anymore, they just exchanged glances. This lord was talking nonsense, could he be a lunatic?
"Alice, what is our main income here? How much can we earn every day?" Meng Han asked Grace, and Grace said that her sister Alice is responsible for these things, and she is only responsible for arranging everyone's life here. As a lord,
Why should we care about the fiscal revenue of the territory?
The lord asked the question, and Alice had to answer. However, she was afraid that if she told the real situation, the young lord would not be able to accept it. After all, a lord who could lift the curse of the twins and make it rain here would be very important to this place.
It's really important.
Since Meng Han was taught a lesson by the Earl last time, he knows that if he is not careful here, he will die in hell. Although he doesn't know if there is a realm of hell here, but it is better not to die. This kind of strong
His sense of crisis was even more urgent than when he couldn't find a job in his previous life, so observing words and emotions became a compulsory homework for him every day.
"Don't worry, I have the worst plan." Meng Han immediately guessed the reason for Alice's hesitation. He already knew that the territory's income was low, he just wanted to know how low it would be.
The lord's smile made Alice forget her embarrassment that she had just suspected her, and her worry that telling him the truth would make him retreat. She lowered her head and reported to the lord in a low voice: "Every day we can only
We hunted down very few monsters, all thanks to felled trees. We went to the market every three days, and because of the curse of the twins, the prices there were very low. On average, we here earn less than three silver coins a day, and we all buy the lowest quality ones.
There is not enough food to eat.”
As she spoke, Alice's voice became lower and lower, and her head lowered lower and lower, as if she had shrunk into her arms. She didn't dare to raise her head to see the face of the lord in front of her, and she didn't know if the lord would.
She would turn around and leave. Although she suspected Meng Han was a liar at first, but now that it was confirmed that he was the lord, she began to fear that after finally having some hope, it would immediately turn into despair.
"Three silver coins!" Meng Han couldn't help but sigh when he heard this number.
He touched the gold coins. A gold coin weighed about one or two pounds, fifty grams. Calculated at two hundred yuan or one thousand New Taiwan dollars per gram, one gold coin was about ten thousand yuan or fifty thousand New Taiwan dollars.
.One hundred silver coins is equivalent to one gold coin and three silver coins, which is an income of about 300 yuan or NT$1,500.
"How many people are there in Huangsha Town?" Meng Han asked again about the population.
"There are eight hundred and forty-two in total. Among them, there are fifty-six who are too old and weak to cut wood and hunt every day. Every time we go to the market, it takes three days to go back and forth, and there are fifty people transporting them on the road." Imagine.
The scene of the Lord escaping quickly did not appear. Alice regained some composure, raised her head and answered quickly. She had already memorized these numbers by heart.
More than 800 people have to live on three silver coins a day. Indeed, they don't even have enough money to buy food. They can't even eat enough, let alone improve their accommodation. There is a house here that can accommodate people, which is already very good.
"Is hunting and logging what you do every day?" As a lord, Meng Han needs to understand the source of income from his territory, so this question must be asked clearly.
"Yes, sir." This time, it was Grace who answered. It seems that Grace is the one who arranges the work in the territory.
"Thank you for your hard work." Looking at the thin appearance of the two sisters, Meng Han couldn't help but feel sad. It is not easy for them to bear the pressure of so many people at such a young age: "From today on
Let me start worrying about these things!"
"Yes, sir." This time, the two women answered in unison.
"Ten years of taxes have been paid, and no matter how much money we make in the future, it will be ours." Meng Han suddenly became enthusiastic: "Starting from scratch, is there anything more exciting than this process?"
Grace and Alice looked at each other again. They didn't know what the lord meant, so they could only remain silent.
"I said that Huangsha Town will become the richest place in the world in the future, so that no one in the world will discriminate against you. Do you believe it?" Looking at the performance of the two women, Meng Han laughed.
After getting up and laughing, he said something that made the two women even more confused.
