This article comes from [% Green] Cleaning Tax and Greening Tax (% Green)!

Lin Qi and Long Cheng walked slowly and squarely to the door of No. 1 Shenghui Street. When they heard the tax officials speaking out the names of these two tax types in a serious manner, they almost burst out laughing. . WwW. QUanbEn-xIAoShUo. cOm That Titian guy is indeed not a good citizen. These two taxes are really remarkable.

As the son of the deputy prime minister of the empire, Titian naturally had a strong influence in the empire's civil service system. I don't know how many civil servants wanted to flatter him. As the nephew of the Imperial Finance Minister, Titian had a terrible control over the empire's tax department. Titian even personally arranged for the father of one of his young lovers to be the chief tax officer of the Imperial Capital Taxation Department.

So it is only natural that these tax officials appear here.

Lin Qi told Titian last night that since Elham and the others seemed to be in financial crisis, then before they could solve this huge trouble, he would add insult to injury and make their already withered money Let it dry up completely. Created troubles for them, all kinds of troubles, forcing them to bow to Titian.

If they did not bow to Titian, but chose to leave the imperial capital, then Lin Qi would be happy to see what happened - Uncle Barr and Aunt Lily's fighting power in the wilderness was not something ordinary people could compare to. Moreover, there are no obstructive dragoons or copper hats in the wilderness. Lin Qi can easily eradicate this group of men and women who are malicious to him.

The door of No. 1 Shenghui Street slowly opened, and a handsome man wearing a black robe leaned half of his body out of the crack in the door. This man is the mage who used to use frost magic at the Green Rose Hotel, and he is also the number one mage around Elham, Torin.

Looking at the tax officials coldly, the cold air released from his body made several tax officials shiver.

"What do you do?" Tolin's voice was as cold as his expression.

The tax officer leading the team said in a low and majestic voice: "We are affiliated with the Imperial Capital Taxation Department. We specially collect a special cleaning tax of two thousand gold coins from you. The greening tax is 120,000 gold coins, totaling 122,000 gold coins. Please pay the tax immediately. Please don’t waste our time.”

It was obvious that Thorin was stunned. He stood there with stiff eyes for a long time without moving. After a long time, Torin stammered and asked: "What? What special cleaning tax? What green tax? What is this? Are you kidding me?"

The tax official said solemnly: "This is definitely not a joke, young man, please ask your master to pay the tax quickly. Otherwise, the Imperial Capital District Court will file a lawsuit against you for violent tax resistance, and you are likely to get into big trouble."

Torin's lips turned gray and he shouted sternly: "I have never heard of any special cleaning tax or greening tax. I have never heard of such taxes in the entire Western Continent!"

The tax official looked at Thorin sternly. He said calmly: "Young man, this is a new tax just formulated by the Imperial Taxation Department yesterday. It is winter, the snow is very thick, and the workers hired by the Imperial City City Hall have maintained the cleanliness of Shenghui Street, and there is not even a trace of dirt on the ground. There is no snow, and the special cleaning tax is just to increase their salaries and benefits."

With a cold snort, the tax official said sternly: "Such a long Shenghui Street can be kept spotless throughout the winter. Do you need the imperial finance to pay for this expense? A special cleaning tax of two thousand gold coins per household. , all residents on Shenghui Street must pay this tax."

Torin was at a loss. This seemed to make sense. Not only Shenghui Avenue, but also the dozen or so branches of Shenghui Avenue had been swept clean and there was no snow at all. To be able to do this in the cold winter of the Western continent, where blizzards often blow, the city hall has invested a huge amount of manpower and material resources. …,

It does make sense to levy this tax.

He received a closed elite education since childhood. Torin, who had never seen the ghosts of people's hearts, asked blankly: "So, what about the green tax?"

The tax officer smiled reservedly. Seeing Tolin's expression, he knew that this young boy had accepted the special cleaning tax. Then the rest of the things will be easier to handle. He put his hands behind his back and said lightly: "Greening tax? The entire Shenghui Street. No. 1 and 2 Shenghui Street are backed by the Botanical Garden of All Nations. Obviously, the Botanical Garden of All Nations has It has become the backyard of your two families!”

Torin was stunned again. It seemed reasonable? The backyard of No. 1 Shenghui Street is basically connected to the Botanical Garden of All Nations, and the ancient trees on both sides are connected by branches and leaves. There is no distinction between them at all. On weekdays, standing on the terrace of No. 1 Shenghui Street, one can see the endless lush trees of the Botanical Garden of All Nations. It is a pleasing sight!

"So, you understand? In order to keep these trees evergreen in winter, the empire also has to invest a lot of money. As the two residences at No. 1 and No. 2 Shenghui Avenue that enjoy the benefits of the Botanical Garden of All Nations, you must pay the green tax! You must pay taxes because of the greening fruits you enjoy!" The tax official tapped the heel of his boots with his cane proudly, smiling so hard that his eyes narrowed into a straight line.

Just when Tuolin was at a loss, the door of No. 2 Shenghui Street suddenly opened, and a well-dressed and graceful old man walked slowly towards this side under the protection of several guards. Walking to several tax officials, the old man took out a gold ticket of 122,000 gold coins from his pocket and handed it to the tax officials: "I heard that the Imperial Taxation Department is going to levy special cleaning tax and greening tax? As an imperial citizen, We must lead by example and support the Empire's correct decisions."

The old man nodded and said with a smile: "These two taxes should have been collected a long time ago. Sirs, please send my tax receipt to my office later. You know my office address, don't you?"

The old man smiled and nodded to Thorin, then walked away slowly, surrounded by guards, with his head held high like a proud old rooster.

Thorin was completely stunned. This old man actually took the initiative to pay a tax of 122,000. Obviously these tax officials did not lie. The empire had indeed begun to collect these two special taxes. But hell, where will Elham and the others find 120,000 gold coins now

Ya and Ling lost all their funds. This matter was still top secret. They did not tell anyone about it at all.

This is how to do? How to do this? Should I ask for help from my family? God, what would the other brothers, sisters, and competitors think of Elham and his group? They had fallen into this situation just a few days after leaving home, and they could no longer raise their heads.

But, the tax amount is 122,000!

Torin's head felt heavy, and he said feebly: "Please wait a moment, I, I'll go, I'll make an announcement."

Behind a bush of flowers and trees across the road, Lin Qi was laughing so hard that she couldn't stand up straight. (To be continued)
