This trick is called painting cakes to satisfy hunger, and it deduces people's hearts to the extreme. It can be said to be vicious.
Thinking of this, Yu Tong was about to report to King Kunpeng.
Suddenly there were heavy footsteps in the corridor.
"What's going on?" Yu Tong's heart skipped a beat: "Is it because of the tax issue that some strong people want to rebel?"
"Not good!" Yu Tong quickly took out the Wuling Mirror vigilantly, ready to contact God King Kunpeng at any time if he saw something was wrong.
After a while.
The door was pushed open, and hundreds of strong men from Mermaid City filed in. Their eyes were full of excitement, but there was no trace of murderous intent.
Yu Tong, who was good at observing people's words and emotions, breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this scene. He even put down the Wuling Mirror in his hand, and then shouted in a low voice to hundreds of Mermaid City strongmen: "What do you want to do? So many people gathered together, want to Rebellion?"
"If you don't want to rebel, get out of here!" Yu Tong waved his hand impatiently. As the lord of Mermaid City, he still has this dignity.
However, none of the hundreds of strong men in Mermaid City listened to him at all and did not go out. Instead, they laughed shamelessly.
Yutong was a little angry when he saw this scene: "Tell me, what do you want to do?"
"City Lord!" A tall and thin strong man stood up: "I heard that God King Kunpeng promulgated a new tax collection method. Among them, if you pay more, there will be rewards for magical powers and mysterious weapons. Is this true?"
"That's right, didn't the announcement say it all?" Yu Tong raised his leg and kicked the tall, thin and strong man: "Do you suspect that the announcement is still false?"
"It's not like that, it's not like that!" The tall, thin and strong man smiled charmingly: "I just asked about the situation, and then brought the spirit stone to pay the tax!"
"Really?" Yu Tong was a little surprised.
But I soon felt relieved. This tall, thin and strong man must have the same idea as Hu Yitian. He wanted to obtain some kind of favorite magical power or mysterious weapon by paying more taxes!
Otherwise it would be impossible to speak to him so politely.
Because the tall, thin and strong man in his impression was someone who had surrendered from Mermaid City and was usually unsmiling.
After thinking about it, Yu Tong suddenly felt confident. He pointed at hundreds of other strong men: "You came here together, do you also want to pay taxes and get rewards for magical powers?"
Hundreds of strong men listened to Yu Tong's question and spoke one by one.
"Yes, I want to obtain the cultivation method of the sixth heaven after the gods and demons refine their bodies!"
"I want to get that spear of Lord Lingtian!"
"Go away, Lingtian's spear is mine, no one can take it from me!"
"I don't want anything, I just want the training manual to cultivate to the realm of God King. If it works, then I can live for thousands more years!"
"Old guy, do you have enough money? If not, don't join in the fun. The training manuals for the God King realm are very precious!"
"Hmph! You don't need to worry about it anymore. I've sold all my mansions. Are you afraid that I won't be able to get the money?"
"Ouch! The old guy is here for real this time, but I'm sorry, I have to order the training manual for the God King realm!"
"you!"
…
Yu Tong couldn't stand listening anymore. He shouted to stop the restless scene: "Stop arguing. Since you are all here to pay taxes, then line up for me. If you are arguing, I will even pay taxes for you." No quota will be given to them.”
As soon as these words came out, the scene suddenly became quiet, and all the strong men lined up obediently.
Yu Tong took a very satisfied look, stretched out his hand to greet the guards on the side to start registration, but just in case, he still reminded: "Paying taxes is actually a good thing that benefits the country and the people. I am very happy that you can be so active. But there is one thing I must remind you, and that is the rewards for magical powers and mysterious weapons, which are awarded to the highest bidder. Do you understand what I mean?"
"understand!"
"We are not fools. If everyone can get a reward, then God King Kunpeng will go bankrupt!"
"City Lord, please don't worry about us. If we don't get the reward we want, we won't be discouraged. After all, we only lost some money, which is easy for us to earn!"
"I think so!"
"Haha... Me too!"
Hundreds of powerful people expressed their support one after another, expressing their understanding of Yutong and their support for the tax policy of God King Kunpeng.
Yu Tong laughed when he heard this. He really didn't expect that the strong men in Mermaid City could understand the righteousness so well. While feeling deeply relieved, he even said to the guard registering beside him: "Why are you still stunned? Register quickly! I'll wait. We still have to report the tax situation to God King Kunpeng!"
"Yes! Yes!" The guard nodded.
"Hahaha... I'll go first." A burly strong man took out a storage bag and handed it to the guard: "I will pay the tax of 10 million spiritual stones. If it is not enough, I can still find a way."
"Okay!" The guard quickly registered.
As for the strong men standing in the queue at the back, their expressions suddenly changed when they saw that this burly strong man was charging 10 million spiritual stones in tax.
Some strong men hesitated for a moment and then ran away.
Yu Tong saw it but did not stop him.
He knew that if nothing unexpected happened, the strong men who ran away would most likely go back to raise money instead of being scared away by the number of ten million spiritual stones.
Seeing the strong men in line paying taxes in an orderly manner, he quickly took out the Wuling Mirror, contacted God King Kunpeng, and told the progress of the taxation and the reactions of hundreds of strong men.
Princess Palace.
God King Kunpeng was extremely happy after listening to Yu Tong's report.
He really didn't expect that the progress of taxation in Mermaid City would be so smooth. The method Ye Tian came up with was really useful.
Just the thought of losing the bet with Ye Tian and having to drink all the nine-day nectar he had stored made him feel a little sick.
"This Ye Tian, did he already know that using his tax method would lead to this result?" God King Kunpeng smiled bitterly and shook his head. Only now did he feel that his IQ was not enough, and Ye Tian was everywhere in the calculation.
Fortunately, he was Ye Tian's friend, otherwise he wouldn't have died.
I was afraid that he would be sold by then, and he was still happily counting the money to Ye Tian.
Seeing that the tax collection in Mermaid City was progressing smoothly, he quickly asked the guards around him to start preparing the necessary mysterious weapons and various magical techniques for the reward.
Although these mysterious weapons and supernatural powers are relatively precious things in the original continent, compared with the development of the entire Guanghe County, they are not worth mentioning at all.
Because these mysterious weapons and supernatural powers are rewards for your own use, not for your enemies, so why not do it!
I just hope that there are not too many rich and powerful people in Mermaid City. If he really wants to exchange all the mysterious weapons and magical powers in his hands, it will be a bit more gain than loss.
