Looking at so many spiritual stones, some people even had the idea of snatching them.
Cao Meng dared to put so many spiritual stones here just to show them to others, so naturally he was not afraid of anyone coming to snatch them.
As long as he is in the Void Refining Stage, if anyone dares to snatch it away, don’t blame him for hitting him with a fist that is comparable to a sixth-level spiritual weapon.
When Ying Ling'er and the others saw this hill made of millions of middle-grade spiritual stones, their worries instantly disappeared.
Cao Meng has so many spiritual stones. If he still relies on their monthly money, don't blame them for rebelling and attacking Cao Meng, the city lord.
Cao Meng was a little sleepy. Yu Rui, the personal maid, immediately understood and asked Cao Meng to bring his recliner.
Cao Meng lay on the recliner and motioned Yu Rui and Min Xue to give monthly money to those people.
Yu Rui and Min Xue started paying monthly money according to the roster, starting from those on duty today.
After the Yingying Yanyans who had to go on duty received their monthly money one by one, they happily went on duty one by one.
As soon as I got the monthly money, I felt very motivated.
They are afraid that due to lack of motivation, they will lose their position and such a high monthly salary one day!
After receiving the monthly money, those city guards who were not on duty wanted to leave and go spend money.
But they were all stopped by Min Xue, who told them that Cao Meng had something to announce.
In fact, these people can no longer spend money after receiving the monthly money, because Cao Meng gave them medium-grade spiritual stones.
If they want to maximize their profits, they have to find someone to replace the mid-grade spiritual stones with low-grade spiritual stones to earn more.
This means that those mid-grade spiritual stones should not be sold until a day or two.
After Min Xue paid out monthly money to others, it was finally her turn.
My monthly money is one thousand middle-grade spiritual stones, which is also one hundred thousand low-grade spiritual stones!
Now that I am at the eighth level of Nascent Soul, I can earn one million low-grade spiritual stones every year!
Cao Meng, who was sitting on the recliner, saw that Yu Rui had not received her monthly payment and said:
"Yu Rui, your current monthly salary is tentatively set at ten thousand mid-grade spiritual stones a month!"
"When you can manage Spring Wind City for me in the future, I will give you more!"
Cao Meng still somewhat recognized Yu Rui's abilities, unlike some useless vixen.
Although Yu Rui was enslaved by herself and became her maid, she still needed to be rewarded in order to keep her motivated.
“Thank you, Master!”
Yu Rui was overjoyed, because she didn’t dare to think about things like monthly money. After all, her life was in Cao Meng’s hands, how could she dare to be extravagant? Thinking about monthly money.
After Cao Meng paid Yu Rui a monthly payment, he took back the remaining spirit stones into the storage ring.
At this time, Hongqi, who was holding him in his arms, immediately lost his composure when he saw that he was not responsible.
Hongqi stretched out her little paw towards Cao Meng, asking for her share:
"Cao Meng, I also want monthly money!"
Hongqi felt that Yurui, a later guy, had monthly money, and her great Princess Hongqi also had it, even more than Yurui.
"Pink fur fox, you don't have one!"
Cao Meng saw that Hong Qi, a rebellious boy, dared to ask for his own spiritual stone, so he gave the opponent a stir-fried chestnut with a backhand.
"Why does she have it but I don't? You are treating her differently!"
Hongqi covered her head with one hand and pointed at Yu Rui with the other, making a noise.
Hongqi felt that she couldn't survive this day. She was taken advantage of by Cao thieves every day and was touched every day.
In the end, there was no spiritual stone at all, it was just too much bullying!
"Pink fur fox, you do nothing but eat, drink and have fun every day, and you think about rebellion every day, which is the next offense!"
"I feed you with good food and drink every day, you How dare you ask me for monthly money!”
Hongqi was dissatisfied with Cao Meng, and Cao Meng was also dissatisfied with Hongqi.
If it weren't for the other person's pink fur that looks good and feels good in the hand, Cao Meng would have kept the other person as a pet to relieve his boredom, otherwise he would have made the other person into a fox fur coat.
Of course, the main reason why Cao Meng raised Hongqi was because of the aunt he mentioned.
And this pink-furred fox has a lot of spirit stones in her hands. It’s already good that she didn’t ask her to hand it over. How could the other party have the nerve to ask me for the spirit stones.
“Hmph!”
Hongqi snorted coldly and said angrily:
“Who wants you to raise me? It’s obviously you who captured me. It restricts the freedom of this princess!”
Hongqi feels that it is not a good food and drink at all. This is clearly imprisoning the noble Princess Hongqi and restricting her freedom.
After Hongqi complained, she shut up. After all, if she continued to make trouble, she might be beaten or spanked.
What's more, Her Royal Highness Princess Hongqi is not short of this spiritual stone. There is no need to be beaten for this spiritual stone.
Hongqi thinks this is not cowardice, it is called a hero who knows the current affairs!
...
On Cao Meng's side, the monthly money was paid out, and after packing up Hongqi, the Dharma was revealed.
“The Dharma of Lord Cao Meng is more than 600 feet high.
It is rumored that Lord Cao Meng is at the sixth level of divine transformation, and it turned out to be true when we saw him today!”
A crowd of people Seeing Cao Meng's revealed Dharma form, which was more than six hundred feet high and extremely solid, I was immediately surprised.
“City Lord Cao Meng, after practicing for three years, he has already reached the God Transformation Stage. It’s so terrifying!”
“I think Cao Meng City Lord is not suitable for the God Transformation Stage. The title of the ancestor, he is too young, it would be better to change it to the powerful one!"
What surprised the melon eaters the most was not Cao Meng's cultivation, but that Cao Meng was too young and his cultivation time was too short! .
To put it bluntly, after three years of practice, anyone who can reach the golden elixir stage from a mortal is already a top genius.
In three years, Cao Meng cultivated to the sixth level of divine transformation. It is beyond description to be a top genius or a peerless evildoer.
The only thing that can be used to describe it is the talent of an immortal!
That is to say, Cao Meng was in the Hehuan Sect. If he were in the top sect of the Righteous Path, he would have been expelled to the world and the immortal descended to the earth!
"By the way, why did Lord Cao Meng reveal his Dharma? Is there an enemy?"
At this moment, someone finally came to his senses and discovered the key.
It’s impossible for Cao Meng to show off his Dharma appearance just to show off his Dharma appearance, right?
Now that the other party is showing his Dharma appearance, there must be a reason for it!
Cao Meng controlled the Dharma Prime Minister and looked around, scolding:
"Masters and uncles, I know you are all waiting and watching, just to see if I, Cao Meng, will be embarrassed. It's a pity to disappoint you."
Cao Meng has noticed some ants in the transformation stage, hiding in the dark and watching.
And these ants in the god-transformation stage are his uncles and uncles in the god-transformation stage.
Now that he is showing his Dharma appearance, he wants to intimidate those guys and warn them to think twice!
Sure enough, Cao Meng's wave of intimidation made those young people hiding in the dark restrain themselves a little!
"Yu Rui, these are the new rules of Chunfeng City. Please read them to everyone!"
Cao Meng threw the rules he made to Yu Rui. Now he is the city lord. The rules Nie Xuan had set before should be thrown aside.
"Obey the master!"
Yu Rui took the booklet thrown by Cao Meng, bowed, and then announced:
"From today on, the first half of Chunfeng City will be destroyed. All shops in the market will implement the new tax law, and the tax will be increased to 40%! "Cao Meng's first rule is to increase taxes!
If the city lord didn’t have the right to collect taxes, he wouldn’t be a city lord!
He became the city lord just to collect taxes and get spiritual stones!
"City Lord Cao Meng, isn't this tax too high?"
"City Lord Cao Meng, when City Lord Nie Xuan was here, the tax was only 20%!"
Lingshan The business leaders of the shops, wine shops, and spiritual weapon shops were immediately dissatisfied when they heard Cao Meng's rules.
You must know that Nie Xuan only received 20% in the past, and some of them had backers, so they basically did not have to pay taxes, or collected less taxes
Now Cao Meng has just taken office. In March, the tax was directly doubled.
The evil tiger, Cao Cao, has now revealed its claws and wants to eat their flesh and drink their blood!
“Fellow Taoists, I think this tax is not high, because I am not Master Nie Xuan. I will not work after collecting the tax, and I will not come to your territory to eat and drink for free!”
When Cao Meng said this, he looked towards the wine shop in one direction.
He could confirm that Nie Xuan was in the wine shop, so he could wait and see.
When Nie Xuan saw that she had been discovered by Cao Meng, she stopped hiding and appeared directly.
She didn't make any mistakes, so she didn't believe that Cao Meng could do anything to her.
"Damn thief Cao, you are slandering, you are framed!"
After Nie Xuan appeared, she angrily scolded Cao Meng.
When I wanted to be the city lord, I was so loyal to my duties and thinking about developing Chunfeng City all the time. How could I become what Cao Meng said was a dereliction of duty?
This is slander, this is naked frame-up!
"Uncle Nie Xuan, why did I expect you to keep hiding in the dark like a little mouse and not dare to come out?"
Cao Meng sneered when he saw Nie Xuan appear. .
“Thief Cao, you are the little mouse!”
Hearing this, Nie Xuan yelled back at Cao Meng.
I am naturally beautiful and elegant, yet this thief Cao actually calls himself a little mouse.
Is there such a naturally beautiful and elegant little mouse?
Even if this thief doesn't respect his elders, a dog can't spit out ivory.
“Uncle Nie Xuan, you say this is a false accusation, so let me ask you, after you collect taxes and take benefits, as a city lord, are you responsible for these cities?”
Cao Meng asked Nie Xuan sternly. If Nie Xuan dared to cause trouble for him in the first place, don't blame yourself for embarrassing her now.
“Of course I have taken responsibility!”
Faced with Cao Meng’s questioning, Nie Xuan responded confidently.
Among the four city lords of Feng, Hua, Xue and Yue, whatever the other three city lords do, they can do it themselves!
And every once in a while, I, the city lord, would put down my status and go to their city to investigate, give them guidance, and put forward some opinions.
Isn’t this called responsible? So what does it mean to be responsible!
If the enemies knew what Nie Xuan was thinking, they would definitely curse:
What kind of interviews and surveys, what kind of bullshit opinions!
Nie Xuan’s interviews and surveys are free of charge!
Nie Xuan’s suggestions are to tell you what she wants to eat and drink next time she comes, and what she needs.
The next time she comes, you have to prepare things in advance!
"So Uncle Nie Xuan's responsibility is to ignore them and let them suffer losses!"
Cao Meng didn't know why Nie Xuan was embarrassed to say such a confident thing.
“In business, it’s normal to have losses!”
Nie Xuan doesn’t think those people’s losses have anything to do with her. She is just the city lord, responsible for collecting taxes and keeping the city well. .
Cao Meng originally thought that he was already thick-skinned, but when he saw her today, he felt that he was still a little inferior compared to Nie Xuan.
Cao Meng turned his attention to the persons in charge of various markets and shops and assured:
"Everyone, I, Cao Meng, am here to promise that I will never let your taxes go to waste!
Next, I will carry out drastic reforms in Dongfeng City so that you can earn more spiritual stones! ”
Of course Cao Meng dares to guarantee this, and he is naturally confident.
According to his next plan, the traffic volume of Dongfeng City will increase at least ten times!
"Empty talk, you can say whatever you want!"
Nie Xuan felt that Cao Meng just sat and talked without back pain, and just blew it.
I think that when she first became the city lord, she also wanted to reform Spring Wind City, but in the end she was defeated by reality.
These people are hopeless, and they can only defend the city.
"Uncle Nie Xuan, you'd better keep your mouth shut, otherwise I can't guarantee whether I can keep my hands in check!"
Cao Meng felt that Nie Xuan just wanted to be beaten. , need to be cleaned up.
"Hmph!"
Nie Xuan snorted coldly at Cao Meng's threat, and then fled back to her territory.
There is no way, Nie Xuan is also afraid of being beaten.
After all, if she was pushed to the ground and beaten by Cao Meng in front of so many people, she would probably have no choice but to hit her to death!
After Cao Meng frightened Nie Xuan, a little scumbag, he said to everyone:
“If you don’t want to believe me and don’t want to cooperate in paying taxes, you can now transfer your property to us. If you move away, I, Cao Meng, will never stop you!”
Cao Meng thinks it’s okay for that person to move away. The previous move of Bai Yuxuan’s properties can be said to have freed up a lot of foundation for him to successfully recycle!
If these guys move away again, I can take back a batch of foundations.
You can rent it out later and collect a lot of spiritual stones!
Sure enough, many people left. Obviously they could not accept the 40% tax. This tax was really too high.
This is Chi Mengxun, the person in charge of Yanyu Tower, who came to Cao Meng with seven or eight people, bowed and said:
"Young Master, I wonder if our Yanyu Tower can not raise taxes?"
< br>Chi Mengxun and others addressed Cao Meng not as city lord, but as young lord.
"Young Master?"
Cao Meng was confused when he heard this title. When did he become Chi Mengxun and the others' young master? How come he didn't know it.
Chi Meng, the leader, was confused when he saw Cao Meng, and immediately explained:
"Young Master, all our properties are under the name of Duanmu Sect Master!"
Duanmu The concubine is the master of Chi Mengxun and the others, and Cao Meng is the disciple of Concubine Duanmu, so naturally he is also their young master.
The shops in Yanyulou were supported by Concubine Duanmu, and they have been helping Concubine Duanmu earn spiritual stones.
But because Concubine Duanmu hid it well, few people knew about the relationship between Yanyulou and Concubine Duanmu.
Now that Cao Meng had raised taxes by 20% in one go, Chi Mengxun had to expose the relationship between Yanyulou and Concubine Duanmu.
“Your Yanyu Tower is my master’s property, how come I don’t know?”
“My master is in retreat now, does your Yanyu Tower have any evidence to prove it?”
< br>Cao Meng was also surprised. He suspected that the other party was bluffing him!
Chi Mengxun took out a token, asked the immortal, and said:
“Young Master, this is the token given to us by the Duanmu Sect Master!
As well as me and the sect master on the Wenxian machine, and the situation I reported to the sect master!”
Concubine Duanmu left this token to Chi Mengxun in order to prevent anyone in Chunfeng City from making things difficult for them! , give them to Yanyu Pavilion just in case!
But Concubine Duanmu never expected that when Chi Mengxun took out the token first, it was not because outsiders were causing trouble for Yanyu Pavilion, but because her rebel disciple was causing trouble.
Cao Meng took the token and checked it. He could confirm that the token was the same as the one given to him and the wronged senior sister by the female devil. In both cases, this token really belonged to the female devil! (End of chapter)
