"We are not familiar with the land of the void and the creatures of the void. We can only judge from the breath of the void that we feel on this spiritual weapon. Maybe they can get along because they belong to the same void!"
Touching the spiritual weapon in his hand, Bai Luo judged with an uncertain tone that this spiritual weapon should also be born from the void, so that the purple light man can blend with the spiritual weapon.
After finishing speaking, Bai Luo saw a thoughtful look on Yicheng's face. Could it be that the inference he said triggered Yicheng?
In the sea of consciousness and the world, a ball of blood filled with void energy that had been extracted from the body of the void snake-man was flowing.
After being purified by the power of the mantra of the universe with the word "sword", this blood has been completely used by Yicheng and placed in the world of consciousness sea. If Bai Luo hadn't reminded him, Yi Chengdu would have almost forgotten this blood!
According to Bai Luo's speculation, if the purple light and the spiritual weapon can be fused because they both have void characteristics, does that mean that he can make good use of this blood to control the spiritual weapon!
With this idea, Yi Cheng couldn't wait to retreat and verify whether his idea was correct.
"Bai Luo, nothing happened in Weilan Star recently. If there is nothing important, then I will retreat for a period of time to refine the spiritual weapon!"
In the battleship dock, he turned his head and glanced at Yuancheng in the distance, thinking of the fat-bellied and oily-faced envoy from the principality.
Bai Luo said unhappily: "If you haven't come back, I was just trying to contact you. The principality sent an envoy. He is now living in Yuan City. He has been clamoring to see you. He has lived in Weilan Star for several days. Oh my god, I won’t leave if I say I can’t see you!”
"Messenger!" After being conferred as a baron and acquiring the territory of Weilan Star, Yicheng had never seen an envoy from the principality.
This time I lurked in the Void Family, and as soon as I got some benefits, these flies smelled the smell and came running?
Yi Chengcai did not believe that the envoys from the principality would do any good. Although he was not familiar with the politics of the Shanlai principality, Yi Cheng had heard of the bad reputation of these envoys.
In the past, Weilan Star was a poor place with no money to make money. Naturally, these annoying guys would not waste their precious time coming to Weilan Star to plunder them.
During the trip to the Void Land, I think the Demon Eye Legion saw that Weilan Planet had so many interstellar battleships, and revealed this to these annoying guys, and they came to suck blood!
No need to ask Bai Luo, Yi Cheng knew that it must be what he thought, otherwise Bai Luo wouldn't be so unhappy.
"Did this messenger say what he wanted to see me for?"
Thinking of the envoys from the principality, Bai Luo became angry and couldn't drive them away. When Weilan Star was in the most difficult time, when it was invaded by void creatures, these guys didn't come forward to help.
When Weilan Star pacified the Void Land, these guys came over!
"If anything good can be done, it's naturally for taxation. You also know, Yicheng, that every lord must pay an appropriate amount of wealth to the principality every year. In the past, Weilan Star was located on the edge, and there were no good things, and there was no such nobleman. We are willing to come here, but there is no money and water. The principality turned a blind eye and did not ask us for taxes. Now I don’t know where I heard that we have dozens of interstellar battleships, so we came here to collect taxes!”
It’s exactly what I thought!
Yicheng smiled at Bai Luo and said, "It's okay. You don't have to be angry. It's not like you don't know the virtues of those nobles from the Shanlai Principality. They will come back sooner or later. If the soldiers come, they will be blocked, and if the water comes, the soil will cover them up!"
Pulling the angry Bai Luo, Yi Cheng put away the spiritual weapon and walked towards Yuancheng.
Along the way, when the residents of Weilan Planet saw Yicheng returning safely, they cheered and welcomed Yicheng's return. Except for a few close friends of Bai Luo, the ordinary residents of Weilan Planet did not know that Yicheng had gone there. The home of the Void family.
But this does not prevent them from being happy to see Yicheng return. No matter where Yicheng is, he has already become the backbone of the residents of Weilan Star.
The cheers one after another attracted the envoys from the Principality out of Yuan City. The envoys flew out of Yuan City and saw Yicheng surrounded by the crowd.
By comparing his appearance with the portrait information he obtained, the envoy recognized Yi Cheng as the lord of Weilan Star.
From a distance, he said to Yicheng in a sinister manner: "Oh, our lord is back. He is a small baron. He is so powerful. I kept the messenger waiting for so long. I didn't know. I thought you were independent of Lanxing." Now, even the envoys sent by the principality dare to avoid seeing him!"
Across the crowd, Yicheng looked at the fat envoy from the principality. His greasy appearance and vulgar eyes made people feel bored at a glance.
"You are the envoy from the principality. Why do you insist on seeing me? You have nothing to do, but I have to run around for a living. Of course, I don't have time to chat with you!"
With his eyes widened, the messenger snorted coldly: "If you dare to talk back to the messenger, slap your own mouth ten times, and I will forgive you for the crime of disrespect!"
When they meet, they have to show off their power, and the envoy doesn't even look at whose territory he is currently on.
Without Yicheng saying anything, Xinji and Bai Luo jumped out of the crowd and said fiercely: "On Weilan Planet, it's not your turn to be so arrogant!"
"Hey, are you going to rebel? I am an envoy sent by the principality. How dare you attack me?"
Being stared at fiercely by Xinji and the others, the envoy was so frightened that he couldn't help but take a few steps back. He realized that he was actually frightened by these unruly people from the remote countryside.
Pointing at Yicheng, he said coldly: "Baron Wei Lan, is this how you manage your servants? If you dare to be disrespectful to the envoy, you are not afraid that the duchy will deprive you of your title of baron!"
He signaled to Xinji and the others not to be impulsive. Although the fat man was annoying, he was indeed a messenger sent by the principality. He could not beat people blatantly.
Let's see what he has to say!
"On Weilan Planet, there are no servants, only brothers and sisters. If the messenger doesn't know the situation, please be careful with your words, so that you don't get beaten without knowing why?"
"You...!" Pointing at Yicheng with trembling fingers, the envoy calmed down his excitement and looked at the people surrounding him with eager eyes. After all, he was no match for these unruly people.
A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. He suppressed the anger in his heart. The envoy thought viciously that he was here because of tax this time. He would collect more in the future. He must severely teach this group of unruly people who do not understand the rules.
"I won't quarrel with you. I have a noble status and have nothing to say to you bunch of unruly people!"
After mocking Xinji and the others, the envoy pointed his finger at Yicheng and continued: "It's just you, Baron Wei Lanxing, your name is Yicheng, right? I am sent by the principality to collect taxes. You pay the taxes. This is a terrible place." , I don’t want to stay any longer!”
Business matters are business. Although Weilan Star was previously barren and there was no need to pay taxes, tax payment was indeed a regulation set by the principality for all lords with territories.
When enjoying the benefits brought by the principality, one should naturally assume corresponding obligations. Weilanxing is the territory given to Yicheng by the principality. Even if he does not like the envoy, Yicheng is willing to abide by the rules of the principality.
Even though the Principality has never fulfilled any obligations to Weilan Star!
"How much is the tax, whether it's materials or money, you give me the bill details, I'll take a look and have someone prepare it for you!"
Stretching out his hand, Yicheng asked the messenger for the bill.
According to the Shanlai Principality's tax law, at the end of each year, the lord's total income from the territory for the whole year is calculated, and 30% of the total income needs to be paid to the principality.
In the past, Weilan Star was barren, with no production, no rare items and ore mining. The total annual income was zero, 30% of zero, still zero, so no payment was made to the principality.
It has not been a full year since he was granted the title of Wei Lanxing. Yicheng didn't know what standards the envoy was going to use to collect taxes from Weilan Xing!
The envoy narrowed his eyes slightly. He didn't expect that Baron Wei Lan was quite sensible. He originally thought that it would take a lot of words to convince him, but he didn't expect to be so obedient. It seemed that he was afraid of himself!
With a big belly, the envoy felt that he was really powerful!
Taking out the bill that had been prepared for a long time, the envoy's tone was much more high-spirited than before, and he threw it to Yi Cheng and said: "This is the tax bill. Let someone prepare it quickly. I'm going to go get some sleep now. Get ready for someone to call me!”
Throwing the bill to Yicheng, the messenger turned around and prepared to leave. As soon as he took a step, he was stopped by Yicheng who took the bill.
Looking at the dense supplies on the bill, Yi Cheng was so angry that he couldn't help laughing, and asked the envoy: "It has been less than a year since I was granted the title of Wei Lanxing. Are you extending the term of the previous Baron Wei Lan? It’s all on me!”
"Also, the total annual income of Weilan Planet is so much. Why didn't I know about this mithril, the thousand-year-old tree spirit, and this mountain giant? Do you think these things exist on Weilan Planet?"
Rubbing his belly, the envoy looked at the interstellar battleship dock and said disdainfully to Yicheng: "I've forgotten it even if you don't tell me. If you can't hand over these things in a short time, then take away the twenty-odd interstellar ships on the battleship dock." Leave the battleship to me and take it as interest, and I can intercede with the principality on your behalf to grant you a few more days of grace so that you have time to prepare!"
As the words continued, the envoy saw the smile on Yi Cheng's face getting brighter and brighter, and the envoy thought that his generosity had won the admiration of Baron Wei Lan.
Even the messenger felt that he was really too kind, actually thinking about the person who was disrespectful to him just now!
A stiff smile appeared on his fat face, and the messenger continued to Yicheng: "You don't have to thank me, as long as you give me all the warships on the dock as interest, I guarantee that I can definitely get you these things on the collection bill. , the time it takes!”
Pooh!
With a smile on his face, Yicheng spat hard at the messenger. He was so shameless. How could he have the courage to come to him with this bill to collect taxes.
Why not just come and grab it!
how!
It's obviously a robbery, but you still have to give yourself an order!
"You're like a pig, who gave you the courage to blackmail me!"
The smile on his face froze, and the messenger tried his best to open his eyes wide. He couldn't believe that the little baron actually dared to insult him!
