Chapter 104 Ignored Points
He sighed softly in his heart, what else could he say?You are looking at me like this, what else can I do?
And even the leader [Concentrating Mirror] is dead, although the direct murderer is [Brother Flathead].
But [Brother Flathead] is one of the dwarves themselves, so in the end it is Mrs. Horton's fault, so killing Mrs. Horton is the end of the matter.
He also knew that many armies of the empire had the concept of massacre, just to shape the army's fierce atmosphere, and he didn't want to blame the surrounding townspeople because these dwarves lost their leaders.
Qiming, who made a full-strength attack, was extremely terrifying, as soon as he made a move, Madam Horton's dagger flew away.
"Wow, that's amazing."
"Look at others, and then [Brother Pingtou] will look at you."
[Brother Pingtou] looked at Qiming with some seriousness.
Mrs. Horton snatched the sword from her bare hands, and now Mrs. Horton's sword was picked up by Qiming. Doesn't this mean that he is not as good as Qiming?
Although he is really not as good as Qiming, but this comparison makes the gap even bigger.
Exhausted from fighting spirit and exhausted, Mrs. Holden knew that she was doomed to die. At this moment, her face was stained with stains, and she looked at these dwarves with sinister eyes, especially the self-conscious [Brother Flathead], if it wasn't for him, he would have escaped by himself.
"Master Viscount will not let you go, Horton will definitely repay me....",
Qiming didn't even bother to listen to Mrs. Horton's harsh words, and directly cut off her head with a sword.
"died?"
"Yes, dead, isn't it normal for people to die when they are killed?"
"That being said, this lady is a bit flat, but she is also a good rp. Isn't it a waste to just kill her like this?"
I thought it was some high-level theory [Mr. Tang] came up with these words.
"What are you thinking? It's useless to give it to you."
"Hey, don't talk nonsense, I am very strong."
"Well, yes."
"You don't believe it? It's not a problem if I leave you an address seven times a night." [Mr. Liu] couldn't stand the question and said face-to-face on the spot.
"No, no, no, I'm afraid my butt will hurt."
"If you think you can do it, don't you have another one? It's still hot."
You are more perverted!
A group of people didn't make any fuss about Mrs. Horton's death. Instead, they felt sorry for the loss of a good material, just as a system setting.
"What shall we do now?"
"What should I do? You still have the face to ask, [Brother Flathead] Didn't you kill [Spotlight Mirror], causing him to go back to the city to count the seconds now." [Sherlock Holmes Conan] said.
[Brother Pingtou] was stunned for a moment, yes, now that [Concentrating Mirror] is dead, wouldn’t the action of taking over the entire town be delayed.
[Brother Pingtou] who reacted also said: "No, isn't there still [Wind Language] here? He is also a member of [Spotlight Mirror], isn't he receiving the same thing?"
[Wind Language] He was speechless after hearing this. They are a team. The [Concentrating Magic Mirror] is a civil servant, and he is a combat personnel. This thing is a division of labor, but now that so many people are looking at him, he can't refuse, right? , Looking at the expectant eyes [Feng Yu] was a little embarrassed.
In the scheduled plan, I didn't expect that [Concentrating Mirror] would die, but even if he died, he would run here tomorrow morning, and now they are at night, so it should be too late, right?
Just when [Wind Language] wanted to talk about when to stabilize the situation, [Sherlock Holmes Conan] said: "Isn't there still a sheriff there? Catch him first and then talk. It is more important to divide the money."
"I agree with Sherlock Holmes Conan's proposal."
"He's right, and I agree."
Players unanimously believe that it is more important to divide the money first.
Seeing the anger of the crowd, everyone is eager to share the money, or what they said before to get things done is referring to this matter, and [Wind Language] can only do so under the watchful eyes of everyone.
"Okay, let's pry something out of his mouth first."
But at this moment, Qiming found something was wrong, he seemed to have missed something, when he looked around, and when he looked around, it seemed that nothing had been forgotten by him, his apprentice hammered him.
"What are you doing Hammer?"
"Master, look at the ground!"
"On the ground? What on the ground." Hearing what the disciple said, Qiming glanced at the ground, but saw nothing, only a few bloodstains.
Waiting for the blood, Qiming's pupils contracted. He finally remembered what he had forgotten. It was a corpse. Two dwarves had died just now. Why were there no corpses on the ground?Thinking of his heart stopping suddenly, "Gudong" swallowed his saliva and reminded [Sherlock Holmes Conan] who was interrogating Sheriff Jesse: "The corpse, the corpse disappeared."
"Then it disappears, what a big deal." [Sherlock Holmes Conan] replied casually.
Compared with Qiming's question, he paid more attention to interrogating the sheriff Jesse. After all, he can interrogate where the money is kept, and then he can pay the money to Qiming. Seeing that Qiming is so good at fighting, he can't let him go With Qiming, the contribution he will make in this operation against Liao Wenfa's family will be higher. This is a good opportunity to score points.
"But, but..."
"Oh, there's nothing wrong with it. I'll talk about it after I finish asking."
[Holmes Conan] interrupted Qiming's inquiry, stood in front of Jesse, and started asking him.
Qiming had no choice but to keep his doubts in his heart.Taking a breath, Qiming finally calmed down at this time.You must pay attention to this wrong point, but he suddenly thought of his disciple Iron Hammer, maybe he might have discovered something, after all, he reminded himself.
"Hammer, did you see anything?"
"Spots of light, they turned into dots of light, and then disappeared." Hammer said affirmatively.
Is it magic or magic?Qiming thought silently in his heart.His head was a mess, and he couldn't figure out the logic behind it.
On the other side, a group of dwarves surrounded Jesse and the coachman.
[Brother Flathead] He helped the coachman up casually, and the coachman who was lifted up was obsequious, especially when he saw Mrs. Horton's body, he was trembling with fright, and muttered: "It's over, it's over."
It's a pity that he was too frightened to run away at all.
"Speaking of which, this man is so tall."
Hearing [Brother Pingtou], Jesse fell to his knees and burst into tears with a "plop".
"Grandpas, I have seniors and juniors, and Baron Horton asked me to do everything. I was forced."
According to Sheriff Jesse's description, the crimes he committed were all commanded by Baron Holden. He was forced to accuse Baron Holden of his crimes. Under Jesse's description, Holden was heinous .
"and many more"
[Brother Pingtou] I noticed what he said at this time.
"You mean all the bums in town have been taken away?"
"Yes, yes, all the homeless people in the town were captured by Baron Horton and sent to the family castle."
"Did they say what they sent the homeless people to do?" [Brother Pingtou] just behaves like a gangster, but he is a smart person in essence. In other words, people under modern education are not really stupid. Figured out the key.
The reason why vagrants become vagrants is because their lost source of livelihood does not match the original society. To put it bluntly, their production and expenditure are out of proportion. So what is the purpose of Liao Wenfa consciously taking them to the castle?
It's really hard to understand. Is it just to make the territory safer? This is too ridiculous. No one would believe this reason.
"[Brother Pingtou], what are you talking about?"
"[Holmes Conan] keep asking, you don't want money, Brother Pingtou?"
"Yeah [Brother Pingtou] don't bother him." [Coke Chicken Wings] also helped
Two war reporters invited by [Spotlight Mirror] snapped wildly at Jesse who was kneeling on the ground. I have to say that maybe their behavior was unprofessional, but their technique was definitely professional. It looks like Jesse is very vicious and combined with [Pingtouge] dressed up, it looks like a brave general is interrogating an ugly nobleman.
Originally, this honor should belong to [Spotlight Magic Mirror], they want to promote themselves, but unfortunately everything has been fulfilled [Brother Flathead] Maybe [Spotlight Magic Mirror] is scolding him at the resurrection point in Gold Coin Town at this time
"Okay, let's not talk about his crimes, just talk about where he put the money." [Sherlock Holmes Conan] asked directly.
"Money?" Jesse blinked. He didn't expect these people to speak rudely to Viscount Liao Wenhua, but they asked him where the money was first. ?If you want Qian Ming, it’s okay to say no?
Isn't it the same to set up a mercenary group based on your power to collect protection fees?
But Magistrate Jesse only dared to complain in his stomach, and didn't dare to speak out at all, otherwise the two big punks would be indispensable.
"I advise you to cooperate honestly, or hum." While saying [Sherlock Holmes Conan], he took out the long sword and slashed the back of his hand twice, and red blood flowed from the wound instantly.
Kneeling Jesse saw this scene, the corners of his mouth twitched, his angle of view was just right enough to see the bloodstains on the back of [Sherlock Holmes Conan], if he didn't understand, he threatened to cut himself like this, as for?
"The money is all in the Houghton House, I don't have much here."
"Not much? Hmm~"
[Brother Pingtou] Immediately make a sound from the nose.
"No, no, I still have a little more, a little more." Jesse said immediately.
"Where is the tax?"
"Taxes?" Jesse hesitated when he heard [Sherlock Holmes Conan].
Seeing his appearance [Sherlock Holmes Conan] immediately gave [Brother Pingtou] a wink, but [Brother Pingtou] didn't see it.But [Coke Chicken Wings] saw this look and kicked [Pingtouge] in the back.
"[Coke Chicken Wings] Why are you kicking me? Didn't I just kill your old friend? As for such a big reaction?"
"You killed his old friend, and you've already given you face before he hit you." Qiming thought silently in his heart.He felt that he might go crazy if he stayed with these dwarves any longer.
"It's time for you to show off." [Coke Chicken Wings] said carelessly.
At this moment, I saw [Brother Pingtou] in my eyes and realized what I wanted to do.
"Humph."
Standing in front of Jesse wearing the blood-stained armor on his body, he stuck the long sword on the ground, and the floor exploded directly, and the debris splashed onto Jesse.
"If you don't want us to be tortured, then speak up quickly, otherwise your end will be the same as this place."
"Yes yes yes!" Jesse was threatened by [Brother Pingtou] and immediately said the tax collected this season.
Everyone was even more surprised when they heard that Jesse and the others collected taxes every quarter.
"I'll go, you actually collect taxes on a quarterly basis."
They really underestimated the decay of the feudal aristocracy. This Yuhui Town is not a modern society. The income of the feudal society is only abundant in autumn. He actually collects taxes all the year round.
"What will happen if they can't pay the tax?" [Wind Yu] asked suddenly.
"If you can't pay the tax, then you can offset their land and house." Jesse answered truthfully.
"If there is no land or fields, how can they pay next year's tax?"
"Those who can't pay for the next year will become homeless, and the lord will arrange for them."
Hearing Jesse's words [Wind Language] Now I completely understand why the town is so luxurious, because there are no bankrupt farmers in the whole town, and they usually become homeless after bankruptcy.
The refugees actually have to pay the poll tax with the Empire, but Viscount Liao Wenfa took these refugees away directly. I don’t know what he is going to do. Since there are no bankrupt farmers, there is naturally no turmoil and dilapidation, and the whole town is still Vibrant.
"I asked what to do now? Are we divided into two groups, and one group goes to the tax official's house to withdraw the money and then everyone divides it together, or do we first divide a wave of money from the sheriff here, and then go to the tax official's place?" How about collecting money?" [Sherlock Holmes Conan] turned around and asked everyone.
These words stumped everyone. If there is no choice, you can do whatever you want, but suddenly given a choice, forty or fifty people will chirp like ducks, which is really a headache.
What's even more troublesome is [Wind Language]. According to their original plan, the money is not going to be distributed to these players.
The reason is very simple, because they plan to use the money to buy people's hearts and control Yuhui Town to lay the foundation for further erosion of the surrounding towns in the future. However, if the money is distributed to the players, the money will flow to various shops, and they will There is not enough capital to subdue the townspeople.
Then the only way to control the town is by violence. How can violence achieve long-term stability?
It can only be achieved by making everyone in the town become a community of interests with them.It's a pity that these things should be done by [Concentrating Mirror]. He only provides combat power, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen in the middle [Concentrating Mirror] was directly stabbed to death.
It’s okay to let [Feng Yu] do it, but [Feng Yu] doesn’t know if he can do it well, and finally saw that these people are about to share the money, and it’s even harder to persuade them when they see the money, so [Feng Yu] 】Still stood up.
"Wait a minute, I have a proposal and I don't know if everyone can accept it."
