Chapter 122 Obediently hand it over
"What's the matter? Look at how serious you said, brother," the people next to him saw the indigenous people in Shijia Village saying with a serious look on their faces, and felt a little nervous, so they immediately asked.
These people who fled to Shijia Village have just arrived for a while and have no idea about the situation here, for fear of something happening again.
You should know that among the three human settlements in Tianshui City, there are many rules and regulations, and if you are not careful, you may end up losing your life.
"I tell you, this morning, when Tang Tian went out, he had agreed that everyone within the Shijia Village would pay the head tax according to the level, that is, the gods and demon coins, and they would pay it every day. If you can't pay it, you have to get out." The indigenous people of Shijia Village threw a bombshell.
As expected, when these people heard the news, they were suddenly in an uproar.
These people were either questioning why Tang Tian asked them to pay the money, Tang Tian did not give them anything, and some were helpless and were uneasy wherever they went.
However, more people are sneering. It is reasonable for him to ask people to pay taxes. After all, these people are all on his territory, but they have to pay cap taxes according to their ranks. Can Tang Tian know the level of these people? Also, there are so many people and so chaotic that Tang Tian can successfully collect cap taxes?
Things will definitely develop in an extreme direction, and what kind of situation may occur.
This message seemed to have wings, and it didn't take long to reach everyone's ears. Everyone was waiting for the development of things, and almost everyone was talking about this topic.
For the indigenous people of Shijia Village and the people of Tianshui University who came here before, they have accepted this matter silently. After all, they have received the news in advance and have prepared, but it seems too sudden for those who fled here.
Tang Tian, who was on the side, quietly left after getting the information he wanted. He also listened to the topics people discussed. No matter what, the tax collection must be taken into action.
After all, this novice village was built by him, and those people do not have the right to enjoy safety for free.
"Sister Shen Yun, what should we do? There is no penny. If we can't pay the tax, will we be driven out by Tang Tian? How can we live like that?" In a corner of Shijia Village, Shen Yun and Babyface Bingbing curled up next to a small fire. Listening to the topic people are talking about not far away, the babyface beauty named Bingbing said with a worried look on her face.
"I don't know. I don't have to worry about working in a tavern every day, but I haven't received my wages yet. We definitely can't pay the tax. But I think that Tang Tian is not a heartless person, and I think he won't drive us away." Shen Yun looked up at the sky with helpless expression and said quietly.
When did she, as a daughter-in-law, fall to this point? Not only did she live on other people's faces, she also wanted money but no money, and she didn't even have a place to live.
Before the end of the world, she could not even imagine such a wandering life. But this world is so impermanent, and it changes as soon as it changes.
"Sister Chen Yun, if we are driven away because we can't afford to pay, at worst... At worst, I'll let Tang Tian sleep once, this is my first time. In this way, we should be able to exchange for the opportunity to live here for free. It's better to go out and eat the terrifying mutant beasts and disgusting zombies. I really don't want to die." Bingbing said with big bright eyes flashing with helpless and sad face.
"Silly girl, you are not allowed to think like this. Even if we die, we should not live such a humble life. Even if the world has changed, I don't believe that we can't live a name for ourselves. Besides, Tang Tian is not such a person." Chen Yun said firmly after hearing Bingbing's words.
At this moment, a bright look appeared on her beautiful face.
However, facing the endless night sky and listening to the faint roar of various mutant beasts in the jungle in the distance, her face suddenly became dim again, so helpless.
It can be said that it is difficult for them to gain a foothold in this chaotic world without any power.
This storm can be said to be a few happy and sad. Those who are self-reliant and powerful have gods and demons in their hands, and are not afraid of Tang Tian collecting taxes, but these people will not hand over it so obediently, while those who are weak are completely nervous and obey the arrangements of fate.
"It's almost time." After walking around the entire Shijia Village quietly, Tang Tian said to himself, and then he quietly walked back to the military camp again.
"Call the army and gather everyone together." When they came to the military camp, Tang Tian ordered the soldiers around him.
"Yes, lord", the soldier who received the order answered and turned around to arrange Tang Tian's order.
Woo~~!
Before Tang Tian's order was put on, a desolate horn suddenly rang out under the quiet night sky, and it seemed so suddenly.
As soon as the horn sounded, the entire barracks immediately started to run like a clockwork. Teams of soldiers wearing neatly dressed and holding distinct weapons were arranged in an orderly manner to rush out of the barracks and heading towards me, running in all directions.
The dispatch of these soldiers immediately caused the entire Shijia Village to explode.
The crowd ran around, roaring and roaring, and the crowd was scattered.
However, no matter how thorny the head is, when facing groups of soldiers with distinctly equipped and indifferent faces, these people have to be honest. If they cause trouble, they might be rushed up by these indifferent soldiers. It would be really not worth dying like this.
No one wants to make a move at this time.
Although the scene was chaotic, the action was going smoothly.
Because people were concentrated, soon everyone was concentrated in the open space in Shijia Village, and a blazing bonfire was lit around, illuminating the entire open space.
Looking around, under the night sky, more than ten thousand people gathered together, and the heads were filled with darkness.
On the side, all the soldiers in bright clothes and angry horses were surrounded, and no one could escape.
A simple platform was built in front of the crowd at some point. When people gathered together, Tang Tian was wearing a black cloak and surrounded by a group of soldiers with a cold face.
Tang Tian's appearance suddenly made the lower body silent. Everyone looked at Tang Tian quietly, waiting for his arrangement.
Under the night sky, although the gas bonfire was burned, Tang Tian inspected the crowd, but many people's expressions were not real. He organized a few words in his heart and looked at the dark crowd below, Tang Tian said, "I'm glad that everyone has come to Shijia Village, which is the novice village you mentioned. I won't say much. You should have enjoyed this feeling of not being worried, right? Unfortunately, I tell you that while you enjoy safety, this is not free."
"What do you want?" At this moment, no one in the crowd suddenly said loudly. Speaking at this time was obviously a trouble-provoking thorn.
"I knew things would not go so smoothly." While I was secretly speaking in my heart, Tang Tian was not angry and said calmly: "When you enjoy this kind of safety, you have to pay a price. Don't worry, it's not that serious, it's all within your acceptance range."
Tang Tian ignored the person he was just talking, completely ignored him and explained his words clearly. There was no need to spend time to worry about such small things.
"There are two ways in front of you now. One is to hand over enough gods and demon coins according to the level, and you can continue to stay here and enjoy this peace. Considering the different strengths of everyone, the conditions for obtaining mysterious coins are different. The regulations are as follows: each person basically handed in ten gods and demon coins, and then level one to five, and every level one is increased, one more gods and demon coins will be handed in five to ten, and every level one is increased, ten more gods and demon coins will be handed in every level one is increased! "
After saying that, Tang Tian glanced at the crowd below and said coldly: "Do you think there are a lot? Haha, I forgot to tell you that this is the amount you have to submit every day, and no one can be an exception"!
"This is too much, it's not something we can afford."
"That's right, everyone knows how difficult it is to hunt mutant beasts and zombies, and everyone knows how difficult it is to obtain gods and demons coins. What you stipulate is not something we can bear at all."
"If you want money, you have one if you want life, just come and get it."
After Tang Tian finished speaking, the next one was immediately ready, with all kinds of shouts, and they all accused Tang Tian of being too high for the taxation that they could not bear.
When Tang Tian heard the shouts of the people below, he was not angry, but instead signaled the soldiers below with his eyes.
Woo~~!
After receiving Tang Tian's instructions, the soldiers below immediately blew the horn again, and the desolate horn suddenly overshadowed everyone's voice.
Suddenly, the scene became quiet again.
"Hmph, you also know that God and Demon Coins are difficult to get? But do you know how much it cost to build this novice village? Joke, as long as you have the courage, mutant beasts of the same level are not undesirable to deal with. You can't pay for not paying money. There is a second way for you, that is, get out of Shijia Village for me now," Tang Tian said silently, completely without considering the emotions of those people.
Tang Tian also thought in his heart that although it was really cruel to collect such heavy taxes, he still had to do this. It was nothing more. The military camp and even the entire Shijia Village needed a large amount of gods and demon coins to be built, and all this money had to be paid on these people.
Moreover, Tang Tian was not afraid of these people leaving. He did not need these people like the forces in Tianshui City. As long as there were enough gods and demons coins, he could upgrade the military camp and summon endless soldiers. The existence of these people was simply dispensable.
In this way, why should you care about the emotions of these people?
"We have no money and strength, but we don't want to leave, what should we do?" After hearing Tang Tianlengbing's words, there was a person who had nothing to say loudly below.
"I'm waiting for this sentence..." After hearing this sentence, a strange smile appeared on Tang Tian's face!
