Liyue is the most prosperous and wealthy port in the entire continent of Teyvat, known as the golden port.

And this....

It's really that people have to die compared to people, and goods have to be thrown away.

The prosperous Liyue Port, compared with the depressed scene in front of him, Lei Dianshuo's original more timid mood of hometown turned into an uncomfortable feeling that was difficult to sheath.

Seeing the look in Lei Dian Shuo's eyes, Zhuzi also consciously lost his words and hurriedly bowed and apologized.

"Sorry, Lord Shuo, I didn't mean it, I didn't mean that, I mean..." However, the more anxious Zhuzi became, the more unclear she became, and Lei Dian Shuo helplessly interrupted her:

"You don't need to explain, really, can't I

still listen to a word or two of unpleasant advice?"

The pier on the outlying islands is not comparable to the Liyue pier at all, I know it.

The culprit behind all this is..."

Saying this, Lei Dian Shuo looked at the message board on the side.

Message boards are almost all over the continent of Tivat, and they are used to post notices to record messages, which is very convenient.

Now on this message board next to Raiden Shuo, there are many messages about Inazuma about the outlying islands.

There are countless trivial messages, and there is no need to read more.

The most eye-catching document posted at the top of the message board is indeed the official document issued by the survey of the outlying islands.

Lei Dianshuo's eyesight is excellent, even if it is three or four meters away, he can clearly see at a glance what is written on this official document

: Announcement: Recently, due to the impact of the war, in order to avoid crowding out the temporary military port, the berthing fee for foreign merchant ships has been temporarily increased to four times.

Announcement: If you have any comments, please report to the survey and pursuit office.

Announcement: The berthing fee for merchant ships shall be uniformly registered, collected and handed over by the "Universal Chamber of Commerce" as usual, and shall not be omitted.

Message: "What 'crowding military ports', it is clear that the soldiers are squeezing out commercial ports!" As a result, we have to bear the cost..."

Reply: I'm really sorry, but the departure is free.

And below.

Announcement: Recently, due to the protracted war, public funds have been slightly tightened. Foreign merchants were also invited to donate generously to the official family.

Announcement: It is determined that the adult will increase the rent of the shop by five times without authorization, and I hope that all the merchants will forgive me.

Message: "Hmph, we have received the government's office, who will help us?"

Whether it is raising rents or increasing taxes, this type of official document entry abounds, and it makes Lei Dian Shuo frown.

Excessive taxes and miscellaneous taxes, rampant expropriation, economic exploitation, such a combination of fists, outlying islands and docks can prosper and flourish is strange, depression and ruins are normal!

Seeing this, thinking of this, Lei Dianshuo's mood became more and more bad.

Zhuzi also leaned over to see these provisions, and her face became ugly, a little apologetic, and a little worried to look at Lei Dian Shuo.

Lei Dian Shuo collected his mood and walked forward:

"This is where to go, let's continue walking."

Soon, Lei Dian Shuo and Zhu Zi walked out of the wooden pier and landed on the land of the outlying islands.

On the side of the road that officially entered the interior of the outlying island, there was a supervision office of the Distant State Supervision Department stationed.

Among them, the inspector of Yingshan, whose duty is to register foreign merchants stationed in the outlying islands.

Of course, it is estimated that everyone also knows that after registering here, foreign businessmen will be transferred by Yinshan to Yurihua of the Distant Country Superintendent, and Lilyhua will handle the formalities for the merchants.

And Lily Hua, this young lady, is a typical kind face and black, and she will have millions of Mora fees for foreign businessmen when they open their mouths!

Even if it is not a foreigner who wants to enter, but an Inazuma person, because of the lockdown order, Kageyama needs to stop and register and check those who return to Inazuma in turn.

Of course, the so-called registration inspection is normal, and Raiden Shuo and Zhuzi are typical abnormal situations.

Lei Dian Shuo didn't even bother to take a glance at Li Yin Shan, and walked straight over with Zhuzi.

Zhuzi, as a girl from a good family, seemed to mind this move a little, paused briefly when passing by, hesitated for a moment, and immediately followed Lei Dian Shuo.

Sure enough, both Yin Shan and the sergeant next to him selectively ignored these two people with blindness, allowing the unmanned Raiden Shuo and Zhuzi to pass.

Why selective blindness?

Hi, no why.

Those who do their job want a vision.

Zhuzi is a little girl, unremarkable, as an Inazuma who wants to return to China under the state of the lockdown order, she must be stopped to check the registration.

But Lei Dian Shuo is richly dressed and has an outstanding temperament, and he is not an ordinary person at first glance.

So Zhu Zi followed Lei Dian Shuo, and no one dared to embarrass the two of them.

The sergeants in the supervision department did not dare to stop them because of Lei Dian Shuo's clothing and temperament.

And Kageyama has a serious position in the shogunate.

Although she didn't recognize Lei Dian Shuo's identity, she saw that Lei Dian Shuo had a good face, plus this person was not easy to mess with at first glance, and she was selectively blind.

The two of them went all the way, and as one after another very atmospheric red maples grew on the side of the road, the two of them also began to go deep into the outlying islands and enter the interior of the island.

Because business flourishes... Well, at least it used to be a thriving business, so the interior of the outlying islands was bustling with shops.

However, Lei Dian Shuo clearly saw that although there were many shops, not many were open for business.

It is true that people come and go, but it is bustling with locals from the outlying islands, and these locals have a good face and food, and their lives are not good.

Apart from them, almost none of the foreign merchants of the past can be seen.

Inazuma's commerce and business had deteriorated to this point, which was unacceptable to Raiden Shuo.

Whether business is prosperous or not is a symbol of whether a country's economy and finances are vibrant.

Just by looking at the decay here, you can roughly guess how bad Inazuma is inside.

It can't go on like this.

Thinking like this, Lei Dian Shuo continued to walk forward, not wanting to continue to look at the depressed scene of the outlying islands.

Without going far, Lei Dian Shuo stopped, and he keenly felt that something inappropriate was happening next to him.

Zhuzi was puzzled, and followed Lei Dianshuo's eyes to look over there, it turned out to be a food stall on the side of the road.

Since the shops on the outlying islands are all owned by the survey and pursuit, merchants who want to open shops can only rent these shops, and cannot buy them directly.

However, even if you rent a shop, the rent is quite high, and the rent alone dissuades many people who want to do business.

Therefore, compared with shops, there are still more stalls on the islands, among which such small carts and food stalls are the most common.

The one who opened this food stall on the side of the road was a wife with a young daughter.

This lady's appearance is touching, I see pity, her hairstyle is more dangerous at first glance, and she belongs to a more typical kind of wife.

I just don't know why housewives come out with their little daughter to set up stalls? Where did her man go?

The reason why Lei Dian Shuo frowned was not because of this food stall or because of this wife.

What he felt inappropriate was the guy standing in front of this food stall with a very arrogant arrogance.

This sanctimonious man, wearing the uniform of the survey, seemed to be the tax collector of the survey.

Even after some distance, Lei Dian Shuo clearly heard the conversation between them.

The tax collector stood there, holding his arm with an unsympathetic look:

"I said ma'am, this month's tax should be paid, right?"

And last month's tax, last month's tax, you should also make up. In

the face of the domineering tax collector, this lady was obviously very afraid.

She protected her little daughter behind her, and was very embarrassed:

"Adults can do it!"

Since the start of the lockdown order and the start of the war, the tax revenue on the outlying islands has been rising, and we are really overwhelmed!

If this tax continues like this, my daughter and I will not be able to survive! The

fierce tax collector automatically ignored the second half, and the guy's eyes widened, fierce and irritable:

"What? What did you say!?

Are you dissatisfied with the General's policy of locking the country and the war decisions of the adults above? "
