(Third watch, please accept! Thank you!)

The Lord of Qinglan City is a Lord Viscount, and the land around Qinglan City for thousands of miles is the fiefdom of this Lord Viscount.

As a nobleman who owns a fief, as long as he wants, he can collect taxes and rents in the fief at will, because everything in the fief will be his private property.Of course, it is true to say so, but many big families living in Qinglan City have their own guards.Take the Wanjiang family as an example, its guards consist of 100 squads, each with 800 members, and [-] squads are [-] people.

This is only the protective force on the surface, no one knows how many are behind the scenes.One family has such power, and there are at least seven other families like the Wanjiang family in Qinglan City. If all the power is added up, there is absolutely no problem in resisting the [-] guards of the Hengcheng Lord's Mansion.

Therefore, if a nobleman wants his fief to prosper, he must act according to the rules and not mess around.Although Yin Duhan, the owner of Qinglan City, is a viscount and has absolute control over Qinglan City, he dare not offend so many families at the same time.

However, if Viscount Yin Duhan wants to collect Wu Huang's business tax, Wu Huang has no excuse not to pay it, because he is indeed in business.Moreover, it was a business that most families would be jealous of. It was definitely not without reason that people from the City Lord's Mansion came to talk to him.

After dinner, Wu Huang took Lu Lifu to the City Lord's Mansion.Go to the city lord's mansion to visit the treasurer, and the gift of the city lord will naturally not be missed.

As for what kind of gift to bring, it was naturally a basket of apples prepared by Wu Huang.Of course, if this blue apple is placed in Weijie, it can be transported by a large cart, and it is still a cart with two horses.Bringing apples is very convenient for Wu Huang, and it seems to be more face-saving for the city lord.

Because such a large fruit is really rare in the micro world.Although this apple was bought very cheaply by Wu Huang in Weijie, Wu Huang has cut off the supply of apples now. Although there is a great demand outside, Wu Huang still does not sell apples.

In this way, the value of this apple is reflected again, as the saying goes, rare things are valuable!

Wu Huang brought Lu Lifu to the gate of the city lord's mansion, and was stopped by the guards at the gate. Hearing Wu Huang said that Cage, the treasurer, had invited him, the two guards looked at each other and looked up at the sky, as if I didn't hear anything Arrived look.

Lu Lifu saw what they meant, ran forward, stuffed a gold coin each, and asked them to report with a smile.

Seeing the benefits, one of the two guards went to report.Wu Huang looked at it and shook his head in his heart. No matter where he was, this kind of food and cards were always inevitable.As long as someone has power, as long as someone has a need, then when asking for help, this kind of thing is not surprising.

It's no wonder that in this world, so many people will squeeze their heads to take the civil service exam.Sometimes there is a demand for one seat, and there are thousands of people who take the exam, and the ratio is even exaggerated to several thousand to one.The charm of rights is really different!

Not long after, the guard who went to report came out and said to Wu Huang and Lu Lifu: "Master Cage said, let Mr. Wu go to the front hall to speak."

Wu Huang nodded and said, "Brothers, this cart of gifts is for the city lord and the treasurer, I don't know..."

"Leave it! We will help you pass it on!"

Wu Huang nodded, winked at Mrs. Lu yesterday, and walked inside.Lu Lifu nodded in understanding, then stuffed a gold coin into each of the two guards, and said, "Brothers, that whole truckload of holy fruits was specially sent by our young master to give to the city lord and the financial lord's wives to try it out." Yes, please be careful when carrying it, the two elder brothers, if it is bumped, it will not taste good!"

"Holy fruit? What holy fruit!?" The two guards asked strangely.

Lu Lifu smiled and said: "Both brothers, please come with me... In fact, this kind of sacred fruit is just bigger, and the flesh is crispy and refreshing. If the two brothers are interested, you can go to the Bifu at any time. Our young master has always been Very hospitable."

When Lu Lifu was making contact with the two guards, Wu Huang had already entered the City Lord's Mansion.

The format of the City Lord's Mansion is similar to that of Wu Huang's house, but compared to Wu Huang's three-entry style, the scale of this City Lord's Mansion is obviously several times larger.In fact, in the entire Qinglan City, there is no building with the scale of the City Lord's Mansion, and no one dares to build a house larger than the City Lord's Mansion.

That's not showing off wealth, but challenging the authority of the city lord, it's courting death!

Crossing the gravel road in the front yard, Wu Huang came to a large hall, where a servant was already waiting.Seeing Wu Huang coming, he immediately greeted him, "This is Mr. Wu Huang, Mr. Wu!"

"It's right here!" Wu Huang smiled and clasped his fists, walked two steps, stuffed a gold coin into the servant without any trace, and said with a smile: "Please pass it on for me!"

Seeing Wu Huang's wink, the servant couldn't help laughing and said, "My lord, please come with the villain!"

Following the servant, Wu Huang walked into the lobby.The style of things in the lobby is very Chinese-style, with few traces of Western style.

But Wu Huang is no longer surprised. In Weijie, Chinese courtyard style and Western castle style are interspersed everywhere.It's just that what Wu Huang didn't understand was why this happened.It stands to reason that things like magic and grudges are completely Western-style, but not all Western-style prevails in this world, and Chinese-style styles are also very common.Just like eating, some people eat meat with a knife and fork, while others eat with chopsticks.

The birth of this kind of thing made Wu Huang have to suspect that someone should have obtained the stone beads before and introduced the Chinese style into the Weijie, so that the Chinese style and the Western style of the Weijie are now developed side by side and integrated with each other.Even the name of the person is a fusion of Chinese style and Western style. Sometimes it sounds strange, but it is not surprising.For example, the Wanjiang family uses the surname 'Wanjiang', and Xu Ang's 'Xu' surname.

If he saw the appearance of 'qigong' in the micro-world, Wu Huang estimated that he would be very calm.

While he was looking at the surrounding layout, a fat middle-aged man came out from the inner hall.The middle-aged man is not tall, with small eyes, and two mustaches on his lips. He looks very shrewd and not too wretched.

Following the appearance of the treasurer, a team of guards rushed in from the outside, with swords and long halberds directly on Wu Huang's body, holding his neck.Cage, the treasurer, snorted coldly as if changing his face, "Wu Huang, you are guilty!"

"Untouchable, don't kneel down to Lord Cage!" When Cage was questioning, a guard directly kicked Wu Huang's foot.

bah—

A nearly transparent ripple swayed from the bend of Wu Huang's feet, and a wind shield blocked the guard's foot.The magic shield was not broken, and Wu Huang was naturally fine.But seeing that Wu Huang could still use magic, Cage, the treasurer, frowned, "Are you still a magician?"

Although magicians are very rare, they can't be said to be so precious, unless they are high-level magicians.Because there were two junior magicians enshrined in the City Lord's Mansion, so although Wu Huang showed magical ability, Cage didn't take it seriously when he saw that Wu Huang was so young.

"You dare to resist arrest!?" Cage was furious. In this city lord's mansion, if there is still a kid who can't be dealt with, even the city lord will be ashamed if it gets out.

"Did the Lord City Lord teach you to treat his citizens like this?" Wu Huang sneered without fear, "Or you, the Minister of Finance, pretended to be a tiger, and used the name of the City Lord to bully the good!?"

"Hmph! Bullying goodness!? Are you worthy of being called goodness?" Cage shook his fat face, and shouted: "Let me ask you, you colluded with the Wanjiang family in Qinglan City, and did such a thing. Have you ever paid half of the tax for more than one business? You are such a thug, you don’t pay attention to the laws set by the city lord, and you openly challenge the majesty of the city lord. I will tear you to pieces, the city lord My lord will only applaud, and will not condemn me! Do you think that you are a magician, and we will have nothing to do with you? Come, please come and invite Lord Anthony the magician!"

Hearing this, Wu Huang was slightly shocked. If a magician came, he would be ready to run away.

For a magician, his magic apprentice is really not enough.Above the magic apprentice is the magician, and above the magician is the magician. Even if the magician is a junior-level magician, he is not the existence that the magic apprentice can resist.

But just running away like this, he is really not reconciled, he is just about to flex his muscles in this micro world!What's more, his running away will definitely hurt all the servants in the Wu family, including Lu Lifu and his wife, their son, and the two poor little sisters Gong Yugong.

So he yelled, "Slow down!"
