Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Dax had a bumper harvest this year and squeezed out a lot of date palm oil. Unfortunately, although this oil is cheap, it is still not within the reach of the villagers. At least a well-off family can afford it.  <-> Dax was not discouraged. He hired several mule carts from several wealthy households in the village, hired two young men, and also took the grease with him to a nearby town.  Sold.  This town is still a little far from the riverside village where Dax is. If you walk, it will take at least four or five days. This is because there is no one in the riverside village. Even if the gangsters occupy the village, no one comes.  The main reason for asking.  It is really the most realistic example that the sky is high and the emperor is far away.  Fortunately, there was nothing particularly dangerous along the way. Dax, with his men and the mule cart, hurriedly and slowly arrived at the nearest small town when it was dark the next day.  Although this town is small, it has a complete system. There are two lazy guards standing at the gate of the city. They are standing bored at the gate, preparing to close the dilapidated city gate that is almost vulnerable.  Dax hurried to the door, handed the two guards ten coppers each, and begged the two guards with a smile to let them in. It was just a few mule carts, and the guards would not ruin their business.  So all these mule carts, which were obviously from poor villages, were put in.  The Great Master http::// They chose the cheapest hotel and stayed there that night, spending the whole night speechless.  At dawn the next day, Dax began to sell the date palm oil he squeezed out at a very low price. Because the price was low enough, at first some tavern owners only wanted to give it a try.  I bought a small amount and found that this oil is not easy to catch fire.  The heat conduction is very uniform and the properties are very stable. Although the steak is not very fragrant, it is not easy to mess up, it saves firepower, and it does not have any toxic or side effects.  Wait until the next day.  All these tavern owners rushed over, one bucket after another, and soon they bought all the grease on the mule carts.  Dax made a lot of money this time, earning at least twenty gold coins!  This is a huge sum of money that the villagers will never see in their lifetime!  Even if they don't eat or drink, it will take at least ten years of hard work for a family to earn so much money!  How could you make money so easily!  Even the coachmen and young men hired by Dax looked at Dax with something a little wrong.  There are quite a lot of hidden problems when you are suddenly rich.  Dax was obviously aware of this problem. During the day on the third day, he gave the guys he had just hired a day off.  He quickly rushed to the blacksmith shop in the town and spent a lot of money to get himself a new set of equipment. This equipment was more than enough for even a third-level warrior. Dax also hoped that this  A set of equipment can make one's image more powerful and dispel the unreasonable thoughts of one's partner.  Indeed.  When Dax came back in armor and powerful equipment, his men's eyes were obviously a little timid.  This is certainly a good sign for Dax.  But when they returned on the fourth day, they encountered big trouble.  Because they met the tax collector.  When the tax official of this small town heard that some villagers who did not understand the rules came to the town to sell oil without paying taxes, he became furious and immediately took his tax collector with him.  He rushed to the group of villagers who didn't understand the rules in an aggressive manner, just as they were about to leave the small town.  "Guys in front, stop!" The tax official shouted and stopped Dax and his party.  Dax looked at the tax officer strangely. When he saw the clothes and code representing the tax officer on his body, he finally understood what happened.  "Dear tax collector. Hello! Don't you know why you stopped us?" Dax asked in a dignified manner, wearing the new equipment he had just bought.  Tax collectors are the most observant of people, because behind many industries in this town, there is a very deep backstage support. It¡¯s either a baron or a knight. If you don¡¯t have an eye for price, it¡¯s easy to be kicked out of the iron plate, and you will be unlucky.  The only one he can bully is himself, and those he can bully are ordinary townspeople and villagers in the countryside.  So when he saw this so-called country man wearing valuable equipment, he couldn't help but feel a little bit in his heart.  He had to look at this young-looking boy carefully again and again.  "Um, I heard that you sold more than a dozen barrels of grease in this small town?" The situation has been relatively tight recently, and the tax officer finally decided not to act rashly without knowing the details.  Dax¡¯s current intelligence is not too high?, the charm is also beyond the level of ordinary people, and when encountering this kind of thing, he doesn't show any panic.  When the other party appeared and asked this question, he judged what the tax collector wanted to do based on the experience gained from chatting with the tavern owners in the past few days.  "Dear tax collector, hello! I am here to sell a few barrels of newly pressed oil on the order of our young master. However, for the sake of confidentiality, I am sorry that I cannot tell my master's name." Duck  Si smiled mysteriously and bowed, intentionally or unintentionally revealing a small bit of the noble jewelry around his neck for the tax official to see.  At the same time, he slightly used the ability of the paladin, and a layer of light unique to the paladin covered his shiny armor, making him look very majestic.  After seeing the noble jewelry and the light of the paladin on Dax's body, the tax officer's expression changed, he coughed twice, and then said: "Well, since that's the case, then I won't ask more, uh, but the tax  You still have to pay it. You are selling cooking oil. So far, no one has been killed, so there should be no problem with the quality. As for the tax, it is based on the share stipulated by the law. Well, the 10% tax is based on your income.  10% will be taken out, uh, as tax." After the tax officer finished speaking, Dax was still a little confused. Is this necklace so effective?  The light on his body increased so much at once, and it made the nobleman so fearful. It was obvious that he had a lot of background.  But he didn¡¯t dare to test it anymore. The most important thing now was to go back to Hepan Village. He still had a lot of work to do.  So he handed over one-tenth of his income to the tax collector, then smiled warmly and left with his men and mule cart.  (To be continued.)
