"Who are you? Why have I never seen you before? I have already paid the management fee." After seeing these three guys, the old man looked nervous and held the storage ring in his hand tightly.
"Old man, stop talking nonsense. I am Yao Zhenying's man. I am here to collect taxes. The management fee is different from the taxes I collect. Pay it quickly, or else, don't blame me for being rude."
The three big men, exuding a cold aura, spoke harshly to the old man. At the same time, they exuded murderous intent and locked onto the old man.
The old man's face suddenly turned pale.
Of course he had heard of Yao Zhenying. In fact, Yao Zhenying was one of the managers of this black market, and Yao Zhenying's uncle was the real owner of this black market. The master whose cultivation had reached the ninth level of Yuanhun Realm was called Yao Haisheng.
Since these three big men dared to collect taxes under the banner of Yao Zhenying, it was obvious that they must have obtained Yao Zhenying's consent. Otherwise, these three big men would never dare to act so unscrupulously.
This old man had already paid the management fee before setting up the stall, and this management fee would eventually fall into the hands of Yao Haisheng.
However, the taxes collected now will undoubtedly fall into Yao Zhenying's pocket.
The old man thought about it and didn't dare to offend Yao Zhenying. He asked with a bitter face: "Three bosses, how much tax do you want to collect?"
"Thirty percent of the transaction amount." said one of the big men.
"This is too much." The old man felt so distressed that he wanted to cry. A 30% tax was simply cutting into his flesh.
"Stop talking nonsense. This is a favor from Master Yao. He lets you pay less. If you ask around in other black markets, you'll find that they all charge a 50% tax. Be content, old man." A big man said in a cold voice.
The old man looked at the three big men. Finally, he gritted his teeth, put on a bitter face, and paid 30% of the magic crystals in full. Then, he stayed away from the three big men as if he was avoiding the plague.
Then, the three big men surrounded Chen Lei and said, "Boy, it's your turn. You still have to pay tax when you buy things here, 30%."
Chen Lei looked at the three big men. All of them were at the first level of Yuanhun Realm, but the murderous aura on their bodies was quite alarming. It was obvious that they had killed and robbed many people in the past.
Chen Lei looked at the three big men and said, "What if I don't hand it over?"
After hearing what Chen Lei said, a big man sneered and said, "Don't hand it in, kid. If a few people die here, no one will know. If you don't hand it in, I can guarantee that you will never walk out of here alive. I advise you to be honest and hand in what you should hand in. This way, everyone will be better off."
Chen Lei said: "Really? Unfortunately, I am not used to being threatened."
"Boy, then you are seeking death."
After hearing what Chen Lei said, the three big men's expressions suddenly turned cold. One of the big men swung his palm and slapped Chen Lei fiercely, wanting to kill Chen Lei with one palm.
Chen Lei has never been one to be bullied, let alone being blackmailed by such a scum. Anyway, his purpose of coming to this black market has been achieved, so there is nothing to worry about even if he makes a big fuss.
