Chapter 33 Sa Lao’s righteousness
……
"I want to know how much the annual protection fee is for Tiandou City." Nan Feng said.
Salas' eyes twitched, "Elder Nan Feng, this kind of thing..."
Snap!
Nan Feng slapped the papal decree on the table.
"How much?"
Salas' expression froze, "About one million."
"How much did you take?" Nan Feng asked.
Salas felt a little guilty, "Elder Nanfeng, I didn't..."
Nan Feng put away the papal decree, "How much?"
Salas breathed a sigh of relief, "Twenty, the rest will be distributed by other bishops and subordinates of Wuhun Temple."
"But please don't worry, elders, the work of Wuhun Temple has never fallen behind!"
"Nonsense!" Nan Feng was speechless.
“You’ve made so much money and you still don’t work hard, are you going to go to heaven?”
Although Wuhun Palace originated in the Age of Angel Gods 20,000 years ago and has a long history, its true growth only took place in the past thousand years. Due to the emergence of the Tiandou Empire and the Star Luo Empire, the establishment of a complete social system, and the official entry of the Douluo Continent Feudal era.
Before this, except for the soul master forces on the Douluo Continent, the society of ordinary people could almost be said to be in a semi-slave, semi-primitive society. There were countless small countries and tribes all over the continent.
Until more than a thousand years ago, the ancestors of the Tiandou and Xingluo royal families recruited some idle soul masters who had no affiliation and started a war. The big fish ate the small fish, and it took hundreds of years to bring Douluo Continent to the mainland. The annexation of small countries finally resulted in a confrontation between the two empires thousands of years ago.
The progress of the times has led to the exchange and development of information, as well as the improvement of social productivity. Human society has gradually prospered, and those powerful soul masters who have always been isolated from the world, such as Haotian Sect, Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus and other sects , and finally officially established contact with the outside world.
It's just that these sects attach great importance to the inheritance of martial arts and are not keen on absorbing outside soul masters. Only a few soul master forces represented by Wuhun Palace are willing to absorb external soul masters. After thousands of years of development, Wuhun Palace has The forces that now spread across the continent.
In terms of promoting the Douluo Continent era, Tiandou and Xingluo are the main forces, while Wuhundian is just a peach picker at best.
If Wuhun Palace hadn't been fighting in the middle, Xingluo would have destroyed Tiandou hundreds of years ago. Even now, as long as Wuhun Palace doesn't cause trouble, Xingluo would have destroyed Tiandou.
Xingluo, a highly centralized military empire, was on par with a noble like Tiandou, and even the imperial family had little prestige in its twilight years. There was no need to think about which one was stronger and which one was weaker.
Only when there is conflict can there be topics, and only when there is war can there be peace. Wuhun Palace needs the two empires to maintain conflicts in order to demonstrate its greatness.
White needs corresponding black to set off.
"From now on, it's five to five," Nan Feng said.
Salas was stunned, "Elder Nanfeng, I cannot decide this matter alone."
The one million gold soul coins were actually collected slowly from bottom to top. In the end, only 200,000 were received in his hand. Instead of saying that he got one million, he took 200,000, and then The remaining 800,000 were divided among the others.
He could give half of his 200,000 to Nan Feng as protection money for taking refuge, but he was not sure whether others would be willing, and he couldn't interfere.
"Is it difficult?" Nan Feng said.
"I haven't even asked for 30 or 70 points, and you're calling it difficult?"
Salas' expression froze, "Elder Nan Feng, the scope of this matter is too large. It almost involves all levels of the Spirit Hall in the Tiandou Empire. I really can't do anything about it at the moment."
< br>
"Wouldn't you let others do what you can't do?" Nan Feng said.
Salas was stunned, "What do you mean?"
"Your political and economic thinking is really bad." Nan Feng said with hatred.
"It's hard to move the money below the Wuhun Palace. You can use the money above. The kingdoms and principalities of the Tiandou Empire, as well as the Tiandou royal family and the nobles of Tiandou. You can draw strength from them."
"If they have no money, they will naturally collect money from below."
"In this way, we have taken the money. The Tiandou Empire is levying excessive taxes and the people are resentful. Wuhun Palace only needs to give a little benefit to the people below. The big stick is from the two empires, and the sweet dates are given by Wuhun Palace. Come and go, won't the people's hearts change?" Salas looked strange.
Okay, okay, no wonder he is already a celebrity in the Pope's palace and an honorary elder at such a young age. How can we achieve this kind of thinking?
They say nobles have dark hearts, but how can you be so dark?
"What's that look in your eyes?" Nan Feng frowned.
"Didn't Wuhundian do the same thing in the past?"
Where do the subsidies given to low-level soul masters come from?
The two empires grabbed it!
Wuhun Palace is also using the money collected from the two empires to make its own name!
Now, he has just amplified this point a little bit.
"Don't blame me for being cruel." Nan Feng sighed.
"Severe cases require strong medicine. Look at the people below. How many of them have become numb to the exploitation and oppression of the two empires?"
"If I want to defeat the most terrible evil, I will inevitably have to tear off the thin sugar coating of false justice."
"Only with a sharp knife that makes those people who have been numb for a long time completely unable to bear it any longer and leaves them with no way to survive, will they stand up and resist!"
"The struggle is bloody and cruel, but whether they want to be safe or live with dignity is their choice."
Salas' expression froze, "Elder Nanfeng, what you said...why is there something wrong?"
Push those civilians to death so that they have to fight back?
What the hell do you want to do? ?
If the people below rebel, Wuhun Palace will not have a hard time!
If you use this kind of trick, you will injure the enemy 800 and damage yourself a thousand!
"Something's wrong? Is there something?" Nan Feng stood up.
"The world needs to change. The stench of rotten meat has filled the sky. To completely eradicate this stubborn disease, a painful bone scraping is necessary."
“If you don’t have the courage to stand up, you don’t have the qualifications to stand up!”
How ridiculous! So crazy!
Salas looked at the man in front of him with some fear, "Elder Nan Feng, does His Majesty the Pope know about this?"
"Of course." Nan Feng said.
"She is the first advocate of anti-feudal, anti-landlord, and anti-hegemony ideas who was influenced by me!"
"You, the third one, Bishop Salas, are you interested in creating a new era for the continent with me?"
Salas' eyes twitched slightly, "Can I... not participate?"
He is so old! People who have worked hard to get to where they are today, and who will be buried in glory in a few decades, really don’t dare to do these things!
"Of course!" Nan Feng patted Salas on the shoulder and sighed deeply.
"It's just a pity that I lost a brave ally..."
lose?
Salas' expression froze, "Elder Nan Feng, I think I should participate!"
How the hell are you discussing this with him?
A naked threat!
"Bishop Salas, don't force yourself. Not everyone has this kind of consciousness of putting oneself in danger to survive. I understand you!" Nan Feng sighed.
You've already killed me by riding on your horse! !
Salas cursed endlessly, but he could only agree, "Elder Nanfeng, if I can do my part for such a great thing, I will have no regrets in this life!"
"Lao Sa is right!" Nan Feng looked in admiration.
"Nan Feng is the working people in the world who are oppressed by the feudal landlord hegemony class. I would like to thank Sa Lao!"
"Where, where..." Salas was about to cry.
He really doesn't want to cause trouble!
I just want to work hard until I retire! !
