The Villain Knight Doesn't Want to Be a Hero
Chapter 212
If it were in the past, the other party would at most reprimand him lightly, and then slowly explain something to him.
Instead of the current situation, the two sides are just a cold relationship between superiors and subordinates.
—— Saiwu Josuke finally understood how those outsiders felt when facing his father.
"Or is it because you are afraid that I have a new love, so you are worried that your position as the successor to the next president will not be stable?"
"Father, what are you talking about!?"
Saiwu Josuke was shocked and felt cold in his heart.
But in a sense, this is not wrong.
Although it is hard to say what will happen now, if he joins "Qiwu Xuanzong" and really marries the Holy Emperor, and finally gives him a younger brother, his position will not be as stable as it is now.
However, what makes him feel cold is not because the other party said that there is an objective fact, but because the other party is on guard against him.
This has never happened before.
"Okay, if you come here just to talk about such trivial matters, then go back, I have made up my mind."
He waved his big hand towards the door and impatiently ordered him to leave.
Saiwu Josuke's throat moved, but he still couldn't make a sound.
He knew that his father was imprisoned for a period of time by the woman of the Holy Emperor for some reason when he visited the Tokyo area, so it was inevitable that he was angry.
But... forget it, it seems that war is inevitable anyway.
But just before leaving, he remembered something, stopped and turned back and said: "Well, father, don't you come back to see mother? Since you came back, you haven't been home yet..."
"Oh, it turned out that your mother asked you to come."
"...."
Saiwu Josuke stood there in silence, as if waiting for his answer.
In fact, he ran over in such a hurry because he was worried that Qiwu Xuanzong's proposal of political marriage would scare Qiwu's wife.
A big hat fell from the sky, that is really not something that ordinary people can bear.
Especially after Qiwu Xuanzong came back from Tokyo, he didn't even go home every day, it was hard not to think too much.
Lin Qiao pretended to be in the past of the meeting, then turned his back slightly to one side and sighed with a frustrated look.
"Okay, I know, you go back first."
"What about your mother?"
"Don't worry, I will take care of it at home... It's just right that you can go back to accompany your mother tonight."
"Yeah, I know."
It seems that because of talking about family matters, the tense atmosphere on the field has eased.
Saibu Josuke's brows relaxed and walked out of the president's office.
But after he left, from an angle that was not seen, Lin Qiao showed a meaningful smile on his face.
"Well, don't worry, I will 'handle' it."
Chapter 254 There will be no rebellion
Osaka's taxes are notoriously high... Of course, this can't be said.
The correct statement is that the tax rate in Tokyo is too low.
In addition to Tokyo, among the four cities actually controlled by Wuxianghui, although they are different due to different circumstances, the lowest tax rate is more than twice that of Tokyo.
The city was revived quickly after the war, but no matter how hard the residents worked, they could only struggle to make ends meet.
——It is not because of the Gosho Association that there are high taxes, but because this is the mainstream of this era.
But let's put aside these messy things.
To be fair, in Lin Qiao's opinion, if the group of unruly people in the Tokyo area are sent to Osaka, Hokkaido and other places as exchange students for a few years, they will definitely be quiet when they come back.
Still protesting against the "New Gastroenterology Law"?
It can be seen at a glance that they have lived a good life for too long and have nothing to do.
Otherwise, try to travel in Osaka!
But after saying so much, I don't mean to say how democratic and open-minded the Tokyo area is.
It's just that for some reason, the tax rate in Osaka has risen again recently.
"On the night before yesterday, President Qi Wuxuanzong and his family were assassinated by fanatics in their residence. Except for the president himself, all others were killed..."
The female host on TV announced a sad bad news, and the audience in front of the TV cursed in their hearts after hearing it.
How many times has this happened?
Can the assassin just use some strength to kill him?
Even if they wished that the other party would die sooner and replace him with a more open-minded person to relieve the pressure of life, for ordinary people, this is just a topic of conversation after dinner.
...If there is no follow-up development.
As mentioned above, in order to retaliate against the assassins who mixed into the people and the unruly people who sheltered them, "Qi Wuxuanzong" directly raised the already high tax rate in Osaka to 100%.
And this increase completely cut off the livelihood of ordinary people, and even some big families began to complain.
"Tsk, you're complaining about this? Believe me, I'll be very busy tomorrow!"
At this time, "Qi Wu Xuanzong" was in the presidential palace, suppressing the "sorrow" of losing his relatives, and discussing the details of the next tax with the Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Finance.
After hearing the other party's report, he curled his lips, paused, and continued: "No, it turns out that the current tax rate is still too low. I have to set up a few more names to raise military funds."
"But Mr. President, the current taxes are planned to be collected more than 40 years later, that is, in 2077. If this continues, I am afraid that the people below will..."
"So they must be taxed more heavily, otherwise if they have money, won't they be more dissatisfied?"
"...."
This is not just a simple matter of dissatisfaction.
The Deputy Minister of Finance was speechless for a moment, but he didn't dare to persuade the other party.
The two people who dared to persuade were directly killed by "Qi Wuxuanzong" in the first two times, and their families were severely purged, which made some people choose to shut up completely.
They don't know what kind of stimulation the other party received in the Tokyo area, so that a person's changes before and after would be so obvious.
If the previous Qi Wuxuanzong had talents that matched his tyrannical character and was a real lion, it would be dangerous to be around him, but it was also worth following.
Then after returning from Tokyo, there might be only tyranny left, and he would not tolerate any opposition in his eyes.
——This is not a good thing for those who originally followed the other party and wanted to make some careers.
But it is different for a borer like him who just wants to fish in troubled waters.
Anyway, it’s just collecting taxes, and in the end, only the peasants will suffer. People like them naturally have their own ways... and can even make a fortune from it.
"But recently there are many people who are dissatisfied with the tax adjustment. I sent someone to check and found that some of them were sent from Tokyo. Do you think you should...?"
As if he was asking for credit, he made a gesture of wiping his neck.
But he found that the other party's eyes looking at him became a little dangerous.
"You, are you teaching me how to do things?"
"No, no, no, how dare I!"
The face of the Deputy Minister of Finance turned pale, but fortunately Lin Qiao did not intend to pursue it.
"Okay, don't worry about this matter. I told them to do this. Just let the people below turn a blind eye to them in the future."
He snorted coldly and waved his hand casually, indicating that the topic was over.
He secretly muttered in his heart that the person the Holy Emperor found was not good enough. He was discovered just now - it was also fortunate that he had a backup.
The Deputy Minister of Finance wiped the cold sweat from his forehead: "Yes, follow your orders. I will go back and tell the people below not to meddle."
A trace of relief flashed across his face.
But since the president in front of him deliberately indulged, or even sent someone to disguise himself, that is to say, does he want to use this as an excuse to go to war with the Tokyo area? Or calculate someone?
But forget it, it's better not to think about these things. It would be bad if he loses himself in the future.
With the other party's permission, the Deputy Minister of Finance, who was brilliant in the eyes of outsiders, left the presidential palace like a refugee.
.....
"It's finally about time."
Just after the other party left, Lin Qiao closed his eyes, relaxed on the chair, and sipped coffee.
--In just a few days, the whole of Osaka showed signs of chaos.
All kinds of corruption occurred frequently, and the lower-class people lived a life of ease.
This was not only the result of his intentional indulgence, but also because he cleaned up all the officials who belonged to the Wuxiang Society but were actually doing practical things.
In Osaka now, let alone the lower-level Wuxiang Society personnel, senior members of the three wings and four wings, he basically killed them all, the kind of rooting out.
And for this, Lin Qiao was really assassinated in the true sense, the kind of professional one.
Although his strength was not as good as Tina, the other party's experience was extremely experienced... Then he twisted the assassin away.
And similar situations were not only happening in Osaka.
Sendai, Hakata, and Hokkaido, the three cities that remained after the original biological war, are now in a situation similar to Osaka.
——The ruler raised taxes like crazy and started the purge mode at the same time.
The people were enjoying a good life, while some people above them took the opportunity to eat and drink.
Therefore, the spies sent by the Holy Emperor found that the hard work they thought at the beginning was much smoother than they thought.
Even if it ferments for a while, it is not impossible that one call will be responded to.
"Mr. President."
There was a knock on the door outside, and the secretary who was responsible for reporting to him came in.
"The whereabouts of Tendou Kikunojo have been found. He and the diplomats in Tokyo plan to take a flight at 8 am local time tomorrow and return to the Tokyo area."
As he said, he put a small pile of documents on the desk in front of him.
"Is it because of Aldebaran that you can't sit still...?"
Waved his hand to let the secretary leave.
Although the Holy Emperor used many methods to delay the other party's return time as much as possible, after such a big thing happened, especially involving the secrets of the Tendou family, he can only choose to go back and take charge now.
But if this guy really goes back, can the now black and not completely black Saint Emperor really compete with this old thing?
"Come to think of it, I haven't seen my old friend for a long time." Half-closed his eyes, he made his own decision.
It's been a while since I saw him and Ziyuan Xianyi.
It's rare that I'm the president of Osaka now, so I have to invite them to be my guests - of course, I will definitely not send them an invitation.
These two days of work and rest have been too hellish. I stay up all night every day. I shouldn’t touch Wolong so rudely. I’ll adjust it today.
One hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred One hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred words one One hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred words, one hundred words
Chapter 255 The situation of the Tendo family
While the four cities of Osaka, Hakata, Sendai and Hokkaido are undergoing internal purges, restlessness and madness are also brewing in Tokyo.
"protest!"
“A protest against an incompetent government!”
"Further to the bottom and severely punish the national traitors!"
