When everyone heard that the discount period was only for one month, they all quickly got up and walked back. Zuo Feng simply asked the Demon Hunting Guards to send them back.
Baozheng's policy of halving tax collection in the village and the fact that the Demon Hunter Guards completely took over the county government caused a stir in all the villages.
The villagers were overjoyed, but they also cautiously went to relatives' homes to inquire about the news. When they learned that the entire Cangbei County had been taken over by the Demon Hunter Guards, they also followed the same policy.
One by one, they no longer hesitated. After harvesting the rice, they exchanged it for silver and gold coins and handed them directly to the Demon Hunting Guards stationed at the entrance of the village.
After getting the receipt stamped with the Demon Hunter Guard's seal, he hid it at home like a treasure and kept it for future use when dealing with county government officials.
At the same time, the members of the Demon Hunting Guards began to chat with the villagers in their free time, telling the villagers about the grudges between the Demon Hunting Guards and the Xuanyuan royal family.
Since ancient times, the title of patriarch of the Xuanyuan Royal Family has been inherited by giants in the Immortal Realm. After all, the Xuanyuan Royal Family is the leader of the Six Great Traditions. If you don't have absolute strength, who will obey your leadership?
If there is no absolute strength, how can we lead the human race against the three major gods?
Therefore, the patriarchs of the past dynasties have stipulated that if you want to be the patriarch of the Xuanyuan Royal Clan, you must have the strength of the Immortal Realm. In other words, the patriarchs of the past dynasties will secretly cultivate a Taoist heir, and they will be trained from an early age. They must be martial arts A person with extraordinary talent in cultivation.
The current prince's martial arts talent was average, and his true god level strength was limited throughout his life. It was obvious that he was not the material to be the leader of the Xuanyuan Royal Family.
Xuanyuan Duzun has one hundred and eight sons of Tiangang Disha. Whoever has the highest martial arts talent is of course the Demon God King.
To be promoted to the God King realm at the age of one hundred is unique among the entire human race. In order to train the next generation of clan leaders, Emperor Wu Xuanyuan devoted all the resources of the Xuanyuan royal family to the Demon God King.
And in order to make him the legitimate leader of the human race, he was specially asked to form the Demon Hunting Guard, leading the masters of the human race to hunt monsters, expand the territory of Daxia, lay fertile fields for the people, and grow food to support their families.
Of course, the Demon God King lived up to expectations and led the Demon Hunting Guards into the Qilin's lair. He was just a hair away from destroying the Lord of the Demon Beasts and wiping out the entire Divine Clan of Demon Beasts.
However, at this critical moment, Xuanyuan Duzun chose to accept Qilin's bribe and got a Qilin cub for his own selfish reasons, in order to live forever and stay young, and to continue to live a life of luxury and promiscuity with many wives and concubines. Then he returned to the court and directly put the demon king who led the demon hunting guards into Qilin's lair into trouble.
In the end, the Demon God King was left alone and died tragically while being surrounded by unicorns and monsters in order to save his subordinates.
Tiger poison does not eat its own children. Emperor Wu Xuanyuan was greedy for money, lustful and greedy for power, but he did such a deplorable thing. How could he deserve to be the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty, the patriarch of the Xuanyuan royal family, and the human emperor of the human race? ?
The Demon God King refused to rest in peace and hid in the Lost Forest with a trace of his soul. He waited for three hundred years and finally found a disciple who was as talented as himself and could avenge himself.
Unexpectedly, the disciple's identity was discovered by the Emperor Wu's daughter because he won the championship of the genius event. In the end, Princess Wind Chime and the Golden Eyed Beast colluded with each other and used conspiracy and tricks to massacre his disciple's village and clan, leaving no one left in the village, old or young. .
Even Xuanyuan's grandson, Xuanyuan Yulong, the legitimate son of Prince Furong, was silenced by his own aunt for protecting his deputy.
In order to seek justice for his boss Xuanyuan Yulong, the apprentice of the Demon God King broke into the Xuanyuan Palace alone with a coffin. His Majesty the Emperor Wu was indiscriminate and wanted to eradicate the roots. In the end, the remnant soul of the Demon God King blocked it for him. .
Only then was he able to save his soul, and was finally reincarnated into the body of a grandson of the Southern Barbarian royal family who became obsessed with martial arts and became possessed by the Demon God King.
Finally, God opened his eyes and allowed the disciple of the Dang Demon God King to be reborn in the body of the direct grandson of the Southern Barbarian royal family.
This is the origin of the current young master of the Demon Hunting Guard, a man who only has the True God Perfection state, but can kill the peak God King.
A peerless genius with great abilities.
His master, the Demon God King, was killed by Emperor Wu, and his people were massacred by Emperor Wu's daughter who was as poisonous as a snake and scorpion.
I almost died.
A teacher is like a father. How can a man not avenge his father's murder and his family's hatred?
Since God won't let Ye Congwen die, then even God can't stand what Wu Emperor Xuanyuan Duzun did.
That's why Ye Congwen returned to the Demon Hunting Guard and became the young master of the Demon Hunting Guard. He led the 700,000 Demon Hunting Guard members who were persecuted by the Xuanyuan royal family and besieged by monsters. He sought revenge from Xuanyuan Duzun as their master and avenged his clan members.
Common people like to pry into the secrets of the royal family. When they have nothing to do, they pass the time by talking after cooking.
Everyone was discussing and discussing, and suddenly discovered a big secret. It turns out that these people are all one family!
The Demon God King is the next emperor appointed by His Majesty Emperor Wu, and this young master of the Demon Hunting Guard is the successor to the Demon God King.
The throne of Emperor Wu should be passed on to King Dangmo God. King Dangmogod had no children, so sooner or later the throne would be passed on to Ye Congwen.
The young master of the Demon Hunter Guard now wants to take back the fertile land that the Demon Hunter Guard conquered. That is reasonable. Others took back the fertile farmland. Even if he took back the emperor's position in his capacity, it would only be taking back what he deserved!
They are . What is the difference between us giving tax money to His Majesty the Emperor Wu and giving tax money to the young master of the Demon Hunting Guard?
To whom is it not given? The young master of the Demon Hunter Guard can be given less than half, but anyone with a brain knows how to choose.
Word of mouth spreads among the people, turning the dispute between the young master of the Demon Hunting Guard and His Majesty the Martial Emperor into a battle between grandfather and grandson. Since it is a battle between grandfather and grandson, isn't it clear who wins and who loses in the end?
Grandpa is half buried, can he survive his grandson? When grandpa stretches his legs, doesn’t all the family property belong to the grandson?
"My little grandson is a good man. He is considerate of the people and only collects half of the taxes. It would be better if His Majesty Emperor Wu died as soon as possible!"
"Hey, don't worry, this will happen sooner or later. He is already in his seventies and eighty years old and still accepts teenage concubines all the time. How long can he last?
Don't hesitate, everyone, support the young master of the Demon Hunting Guard as soon as possible, and stand with the little emperor as soon as possible. When he becomes the emperor of Great Xia, we people will enjoy the blessings! "
"Yes, yes, no matter whether he is a grandfather or a grandson, whoever allows us people to have food and meat to eat, we will support him!"
………………
There was a preferential period for halving tax collection, and within a few days, the people handed over all the tax money to the Demon Hunting Guards members without any penny.
Thousands of members of the Demon Hunting Guard rushed to Cangbei County with their tax money. When Zuo Feng exchanged all the tax money for gold bars and gold tickets and piled them in front of the county magistrate and the master, they were immediately shocked!
In previous years, 30,000 government officials were dispatched, and it took less than a month to collect all the tax money. Unexpectedly, these people only took three days!
The master fiddled with the gold bars and tickets with a face full of disbelief. It was not until an hour later that he discovered the problem and asked in confusion:
"Why only half? Where's the other half?"
When the county magistrate saw that the master had discovered the problem, he also questioned him.
"It's only half in the first place. We, the Demon Hunter Guards, always levy half the tax, so what is it if it's not half?"
Zuo Feng replied with a smile, turned to his two followers and said:
"Since the master and the county magistrate have confirmed the count, then our tax money has not been missed. You two, bring a few people, pack these gold bars and gold tickets into boxes, label the numbers, affix the gold bars, and move them to the county government office. Go to the warehouse.
I'm afraid people will keep it safe. The young master will come to see it with his own eyes when the time comes. "
"Captain, please don't worry. How can we mess up what the young master has told us? The two of us take turns guarding the warehouse to make sure not even a mouse can get in."
The two followers patted their chests and promised, and after saying that, they began to ask people to help sort the gold tickets and gold bars, and then packed them into boxes separately.
When the county magistrate saw that the Demon Hunting Guards dared to undermine the national policy set by the imperial court and halve the tax collection, he became furious and pointed at Zuo Feng and shouted:
"You are so brave, you actually dare to tamper with the national policy set by His Majesty the Emperor Wu and halve the tax collection!
The imperial court must pay 10%, and the county and prince's palace must pay 10%. These two percentages are unchangeable! You halve the tax and remove the 20%, leaving only half of the tax money! The three of us, the state capital, the county capital, and you, the Demon Hunter Guards, will share half of it. Will everyone drink the northwest wind at that time? "
Zuo Feng and the other ten captains, his legitimate sons and grandsons, looked at each other and laughed loudly:
"I'm about to take over the county government, and yet I'm actually paying 20% of the tax to the Xuanyuan royal family. Are we out of our minds?
In three to five years at most, we will break into the Xuanyuan Palace, kill the ungrateful king, his daughter, his ministers, and give them gold bars and gold tickets? Isn’t that capitalizing on the enemy? "
"What? You Demon Hunting Guards want to rebel? With hundreds of thousands of you Demon Hunting Guards, do you want to rebel against the Xuanyuan Royal Family?
Master, look at how childish and ridiculous these gangsters are. They actually want to rebel with hundreds of people? Are the masters of our Xuanyuan Royal Family just for show? "
The county magistrate said sarcastically, with a look of disdain on his face. In addition, the demon hunting guards looked young, so the magistrate stroked his long beard and reprimanded.
This made more than a dozen teams so angry that they rolled their eyes. They are already over two hundred years old, and today they were raped by a mortal in their forties or fifties. After being scolded by the children, everyone immediately became angry and shouted to the team members outside:
"Come here, take these two dog officials out, behead them and sacrifice them to the flag to deter corrupt officials!"
"Yes, Captain!"
Suddenly two burly men rushed in from outside the gate. These people had long disliked these two dog officials.
Facing the soul-refining mage, he actually dared to curse. If it weren't for the fact that they were mortals, he would have been beaten like that yamen servant and thrown into the river to feed the fishes.
Now after receiving the order from the squad leader, the guard who had tolerated them for three days raised his hand and dragged the two of them out.
The county magistrate and the master were still threatening arrogantly:
"How presumptuous! I am from the Prince's Palace of Haitang County, and I am the county magistrate conferred by the imperial court. You yellow-haired boys dare to go against the Prince of Haitang County and the Xuanyuan royal family. Be careful that His Majesty the Emperor Wu will punish your nine clans!"
"The law of Daxia stipulates that beating an official of the imperial court for no reason can range from a hundred sticks to a severe penalty of beheading.
If you dare to kill us, once the Xuanyuan Imperial Clan sends their masters down, not to mention your family members, not even one of your tribe will be able to survive!
Young people, I advise you to take care of yourself and don't embark on this road of no return at a young age! "
The master said calmly.
Zuo Feng saw that these two people were unrepentant and dared to use the banner of the Xuanyuan royal family to make tiger skins. It seemed that if he had not determined to kill a few corrupt officials, these arrogant people would still think that Xuanyuan With the support of the royal family, no one dares to touch them!
Immediately shouted towards the two people:
"Take out the flag of the Great Xia Dynasty and replace it with the flag of our Demon Hunting Guard. At the same time, gag their mouths and take them over to sacrifice the flag!"
Seeing that Zuo Feng was serious, the two of them were immediately dumbfounded. They were about to ask for mercy. Unexpectedly, before they could say anything, they were blocked with a cloth, their hands were tied behind their backs, and they were dragged out by their collars.
Outside the yamen, there were people from three floors inside and three floors outside. They all looked at the excitement and saw the Demon Hunting Guards member holding the magistrate and master in his left hand and a bright knife in his right hand.
When I thought that the magistrates and masters who usually showed off their power would be beheaded to sacrifice the flag, I immediately shouted:
"Kill the corrupt officials and let the people make the decision!"
The team members who were carrying the county magistrate and the master saw that the common people were all gnashing their teeth with hatred, and they immediately understood that these two guys didn't do anything good on weekdays.
When the demon-hunting guard's flag was raised, he raised the knife and dropped it. With a click, the two heads fell to the ground.
