Chapter 617 Big Mouth Western Australia

Zhang Xing ignored their pretense and walked inside.

Bu Fan hurriedly caught up, half a body behind Zhang Xing, and introduced him as he walked.

The other elders of the family followed the officials, silently daring not to speak.

An hour later, when Zhang Xing and the others came out of the mine for inspection, they saw a large group of people gathered around the entrance of the mine, seemingly arguing about something.

Glancing at Bufan, Murphy looked unhappy and said, "Chief Bufan, there are so many things going on in your mining area."

Bu Fan's face immediately darkened: "I'll deal with it right away, right away!"

He knew exactly what was happening outside, and it was the Abner family who was looking for trouble again.

A hundred years ago, the relationship between the two families was still very good. Since the discovery of the sapphire vein, the two families began to fight openly and secretly for their own interests, until they were incompatible with each other.

Since mining is done underground, the boundary between the two families is not easy to define, and mining is often over-exploited, so the two families often fight.

I have to fight once a month almost every month, and I have been fighting for decades without solving the problem.

"It's so noisy, what's going on?"

Bu Fan put his hands behind his back and stepped forward to ask.

"Hmph! Bu Fan, you are indeed here, I just came to talk to you."

The crowd outside the gate thinned out, and a man in his fifties walked out.

The visitor is the patriarch of the Abner family, from Western Australia.

"Xia Duo, what are you doing to me? If we have anything to say, we can just beat him if he refuses to accept it."

Bu Fan sneered.

We are really enemies on a narrow road. I didn’t expect to meet Xi Ao Duo here. Could it be that he also heard some news and came to see the Lord of the City?

"Let's fight. We are still afraid of you. We will definitely fight today, but we have to make it clear."

"You, the Abel family, went too far this time. You even collapsed our mine. Do you still follow the rules?"

"If we play like this, no one in our family will be able to mine clear jade."

Xi Aoduo was wearing a black robe, holding a jade staff in his hand, and said with anger.

"What? Why didn't I know this happened?"

Bu Fan looked surprised and turned to look at Steward Marlow.

When I heard that it was such a trivial matter, I felt relieved. As long as I didn't come to see the Lord of the City, I could talk about anything.

"Master Patriarch, this happened and I haven't had time to report it yet..."

Marlowe's face was still swollen, so he forced out a smile.

"I think this was an accident, and we didn't do it on purpose. I promise it won't happen again in the future."

Bu Fan waved his hand and vowed.

"You promise? Bu Fan, you are putting it lightly. You don't know how much a mine will cost. You will have to pay the taxes paid to the city lord's palace in the next ten years!"

Many Western Australians showed disdain and spoke harshly.

"Ten years? That's more in Western Australia. As you can imagine, if you clean up your mine and you can continue to mine, you won't lose much. This is a bit excessive!"

Bu Fan said coldly.

"Hmph! The profits and taxes for ten years are not much, less than your profit for one month. There are two ways, either we destroy one of your mines, or you pay the taxes for me!"

Western Australia's face turned red. The more he spoke, the louder his voice became. I'm afraid everyone on the ground in the entire mining area could hear it.

Bu Fan's face turned pale in fright at these words, and he kept winking at Xi Ao.

What a mouthful you are, Western Australia. This has caused you great harm. The Lord of the City is listening right next to you.

Ten years of profit and tax is less than one month's profit. What do you want the city lord to think when he hears this?

But Xi'ao Duo could not understand his actions and looked at him with a strange expression.
