Chapter 301 Two million gold soul coins? It smells great!
After breaking up with Norman on bad terms, Dares immediately returned to the city lord's palace and ordered one of the four great soul masters who followed him to Fallen Star City to go outside the city to find those who had received his instructions. And the escaped guards and maids.
"Master Dales, what should we do after we find it? Directly——"
The great soul master raised his hand and wiped it on his neck, which was self-evident.
"No, let them disguise themselves as fallen people and go to Luo Xing Slope, fifty miles outside the south gate of Luo Xing City."
Falling Star Slope.
It is said that a meteorite once fell near Falling Star City, squeezing the rock formations and forming an undulating hillside.
There used to be a bandit village there, composed of rural villagers who could not survive. They often robbed passing merchants and travelers, and were later led by the previous Lord of Fallen Star City to destroy it.
It was a crisp autumn day. After the banditry was exterminated, the former city lord wanted to burn down the bandit stronghold, but he was worried that the fire would take advantage of the wind and ignite the surrounding woods, so he left the matter alone.
“The bandit village there still exists. In recent years, many people who have offended nobles and soul masters have nowhere to go. They gather there and even start collecting tolls.”
Dales ordered, "You order those people to go to the bandit stronghold and gather the refugees. By then, all the degenerates and bandits will be caught in one fell swoop. It is all my credit."
"Sir, you are wise!"
This great soul master flattered me.
"Don't rush to compliment me. Do you know why I just asked you to come here?"
In an instant, the smile on the great soul master's face froze - he was one of the four great soul masters. Among the soul masters, Dares trusted the most, but he was also the only one who knew the relationship between Dares and Hu Fangyuan.
But he never expected that this trust would now become his talisman!
“Have you forgotten who saved your life in the first place?” Seeing that the great soul master was actually shaken, Dales shouted in a low voice.
"It's you! My lord!"
The great soul master immediately knelt down and knelt down to worship Dares.
“Get up.”
Dales helped her up, "Don't worry, I will take good care of your wife and daughter. Moreover, I have contacted Elder Zhong and said that it is impossible for your daughter to go to Xingluo Academy for further study."
" I am willing to do my best for you!”
“Okay! I read that right. You!"
Dales was overjoyed, "However, after establishing a foothold in Luoxingpo, I also ordered someone to look for Hu Fangyuan. I need to confirm whether that guy really ran away. "
"What if he really ran away?"
"That would be even better. The higher-level Wuhun Palace will send people over to find out that they are not degenerates, and then they will not care. And if they don't care, I can also secretly promote the Wuhun Palace's inaction. Let the people in the city be disappointed with Wuhun Palace. Finally, I can take advantage of this opportunity to make a lot of money! I will definitely be punished by the above, and my salary will be deducted! Even my property in Xingluo City will be confiscated! I have to make up for these losses from other places..."
After that, Da Les ordered the great soul master to take action immediately, and he himself summoned the nobles and soul master families in the city to discuss the crusade against the fallen.
“Why is there one family missing?”
Dales looked at the list and found that among the five noble and soul master families in the city, only the Yu family had no one coming, but then he thought, The heir of the You family, You Hui, temporarily left Luo Xing City with Zhou Qing.
“Forget it, it’s just a little girl, it doesn’t matter.”
"The purpose of inviting you all to come here at this time is to annihilate the Fallen. I have found out that the Fallen's gang is hiding on Luo Xing Slope."
The four major families present knew this very well. , the so-called fallen person is most likely really connected to Dales, otherwise how could it be found out so quickly?
But they don’t want to dwell on this point. They just want to understand what Dales wants to sell.
“To go out of the city to exterminate the fallen, you need a lot of money to buy weapons, armor, supplies, etc.”
Dales glanced at the four people present and got straight to the point, “Therefore, I hope the four of you here can..."
"Lord Dares!" A man stood up and interrupted Dares directly, "In order to get rid of the corrupted people and protect the stability of Luo Xing City, my Li family has a duty, but we are really short of money and can only fund 100,000 gold souls at most. Coins.”
“I can only donate 100,000 yuan.”
When the first person speaks, the second person will naturally speak.
“I also have one hundred thousand.”
"One hundred thousand."
Dales glanced at the four people, "haha" sneered, and said: "You guys look down on me too much, right? It's only 400,000 gold soul coins, not to mention the expenses, even people They can’t even get it together.”
The four of them looked at each other, their faces twitching——
This Dares doesn’t even want to lose his face! He himself had no money to spare, he just wanted to pluck wool from them, and even wanted to drink sheep blood!
So, in this thought, these four people have already made up their minds. If Dales really dares to cause their family to bleed, don’t blame them for joining forces and killing Dales now. , and bribed Norman afterwards to blame it on the fallen man.
They have now discovered that the excuse of being a fallen person is really useful!
As for the threat of the Fallen?
Joke!
Now that the incident has happened, how can the Fallen dare to come to the city to cause trouble in a big way?
If those civilians die, they are dead. It doesn’t matter. It won’t affect their own family anyway.
"I wonder what the Lord of the City thinks?" It was the Li family who spoke first, signaling to the others with their eyes that they were ready to take action at any time.
Can these four great soul masters defeat a thirty-level soul master?
"Of course -"
Dales remained calm and said two words: "Be a role model, pay taxes and donate."
"Well ···Want to hear the details.”
The members of the Li family looked at each other and the other three families, temporarily restrained their soul power, picked up the tea cup, and just put it to their mouths, but they immediately realized and put it down, fearing that the tea was poisonous.
“Now, there are degenerates gathering outside the city, threatening the safety of the people in the city. I want to raise taxes and raise funds to exterminate the degenerates. As the four of you are prominent figures in the city, you naturally have to do something for those stupid people. Set an example and pay first. Only if you pay, they will follow suit."
Dales grinned and said, "When the matter is completed, I will pay you back in full. How about we divide the money paid by the stupid people 64%?”
“We each get 10%?” The Li family members narrowed their eyes.
“10% is quite a lot.” Dales took a sip of tea and chuckled, “How many people are there in our Falling Star City? Around 20,000. Calculated per head, each person must pay at least one thousand gold souls. Coin, 10%, is two million gold soul coins!”
In an instant, the four people present were not calm anymore.
Two million?
There are so many!
"One thousand gold soul coins, isn't it a bit too much?" It was the Li family member who spoke first, "One thousand gold soul coins is not a problem at all for us, but for the people in the city, it is It’s the savings of most of their lives, and it’s calculated on a per-capita basis. Can they survive?”
“Brother Li, you are worrying too much”
Dales chuckled, "Our Starfall City is no better than the countryside. Among the civilians who can live in the city, who doesn't have eight or nine thousand gold soul coins in savings?"
"You can't die!"
< br>"If they really can't pay it, they can use the house as a mortgage. Afterwards, I won't let them sleep on the street. They will still live in the original house, but they have to pay me on time every month. No, we will pay part of the rent."
The members of the four major families all took a breath of cold air, secretly despising Dales' madness, but the two million gold soul coins——
It smells great!
