Chapter 282 Taxation [Please Collect and Subscribe]

Tiandou Empire, Tiandou City.

Inside the Imperial Palace.

Countless ministers were watching the show, all with a feeling of grief, to see who would win.

Prince Xuelong was speechless. He raised his head tremblingly and looked at His Majesty Li Xiao. For a moment, he didn't know how to explain, but things had come to this point. What was the point of explaining?

It was to make them afraid and let them understand what a real king was. The weak could only survive in this world by relying on the protection of the strong, otherwise only death would await them in the end.

"Why, are you afraid now? Aren't you very arrogant? Don't you want to be king?"

Prince Xuelong's expression was distorted. In the end, he could only give up the idea of ​​taking all the funds in the treasury away. He nodded heavily and said:

Prince Xuelong's actions were undoubtedly splitting his own empire and leaving it with no way out.

Therefore, whether the Tiandou Empire wins or the Wuhun Empire wins, it does not mean much to ordinary people. Instead, whoever collects less tax will be the leader of the empire. This is what the people think.

"Little brother, I see you are wearing gorgeous robes, so you should be a soul master."

Li Xiao glanced at the ministers in the field and said in a flat voice: "You should also be honest and stop causing trouble, otherwise..."

Li Xiao nodded. It was true. If he could completely unify the entire continent in the future, he would definitely abolish this so-called tax agreement. The people's money is the people's money, and the people's land can only be used by the people.

Only the ministers were left there wiping the sweat from their heads.

"We know."

Everyone knelt on the ground in a hurry. Who dared to disobey the orders of Li Xiao? It would not be a wise choice to offend him because of this.

"This matter is over, so what should be done? What should not be done? You'd better have some idea in your mind. Besides, you control the military rations of the Tiandou Empire, right? Why don't you send troops to deliver the rations now? When will you wait?

If you delay any longer, in my opinion, even if the Wuhun Empire does not take action, the grain and grass of the Tiandou Empire will not be able to support it. At that time, it is unknown whether you can continue to sit in the position of the prince."

……………………

"That's great. If there is no tax, we can save a lot of money this year. Moreover, this tax is half of the income we get from work. It is really nothing for those rich people, but for us poor people, one gold soul coin is enough to support the family. If half of it is handed over, then the family will not be able to make ends meet."

If His Majesty Li Xiao had not appeared here in advance, I am afraid that Prince Xuelong would definitely kill them directly, and by that time, there might really be chaos in the world.

As Prince Xuelong left, all the ministers on the scene subconsciously exhaled a breath of hot air.

The boss sighed when he said this. He didn't think such a thing would happen. Whether it was the Tiandou Empire or other Wuhun Empires, the Xingluo Empire had such a policy. It was not something that could be said casually.

That's why Li Xiao did this to suppress Prince Xuelong's momentum again, so that he could be a good prince and not think about unifying the entire Tiandou Empire one day. This was not what he should think about or do.

"The ministers and royal family of the kingdom were slaughtered, but for us ordinary people, this is just a change in taxation. It's still the same taxation and the same life every year, so it doesn't matter to us. It doesn't matter who wins."

Prince Xuelong exhaled a breath of hot air, raised his head with difficulty, and said: "Your Majesty, I know, I will never do this again next time."

Otherwise, his head would really be lost. If a large number of people died of starvation and thirst in the military camp, he would really have to pay a painful price.

At this time, Li Xiao also exhaled a long breath. Although he didn't know what his future would be like, he promised Qian Renxue that they would make the world peaceful and contented.

The shop owner next to him walked over carefully and asked curiously.

In Tiandou City.

Li Xiao stood there alone, looking at the beautiful mountains and rivers in front of him, and then exhaled a breath of hot air and said: "So many years have passed, and I am still alone..."

After hearing this, Li Xiao's eyes shifted to the shop owner. For ordinary people like them, this is indeed something that cannot be described in words.

The shop owner said with a smile: "For ordinary people like us, no matter who wins, it has nothing to do with us, just like the kingdom a few years ago."

"Sir, you have been sitting here for a long time, what do you want to eat?"

"Boss, if there is no tax in this world, the people live and work in peace and happiness, what do you think?"

As for those high-ranking officials, if they want to be responsible for others to work for them in another way, then there is no need for them to exist.

Li Xiao stood up slowly, looked at the people in front of him meaningfully, and then the whole person disappeared on the spot.

So no matter what his realm is, no matter whether he will die in the future, but things have come to this point, it is obviously impossible to admit defeat.

Looking at Prince Xuelong's subservient appearance, Li Xiao also snorted coldly. In the face of absolute strength, everything is just in vain.

"I really thought this matter was a little too simple. When the matter is over, I will discuss this matter with you. Thank you, His Majesty Li Xiao."

Prince Xuelong was shocked and felt cold sweat running down his face. He immediately arranged for people to escort the military rations and must transport all the rations to the military camp on the front line of the Tiandou Emperor in a short time.

Hearing this, the boss also accepted the gold soul coins handed over by His Majesty Li Xiao, turned around and returned to the store to start busying himself.

Li Xiao recovered, took out a gold soul coin from the soul guide and put it on the table, and then said: "Just take whatever you want."

Li Xiao looked at the prosperous Tiandou City and asked: "Boss, who do you think will win this war?"

That's how it was. For them, even if the Wuhun Empire won, it would only change one person to collect taxes.

"I guess so."

Li Xiao nodded and smiled.

"Haha, soul masters are valuable nowadays. I'm afraid that many soul masters will be killed or injured in this battle." (End of this chapter)
