Chapter 2299 Trouble at the city gate(1/2)
This Mr. Ross is really too much. These people here are working hard for you to make money, but you can't even solve the personal safety of these people. What kind of noble man are you? Why are you so selfish? Li Hu made up his mind that if he had the ability
He will definitely give Mr. Ross a hard time. Li Hu touched the sign in his arms. This thing should make Mr. Ross listen to him seriously. Yesterday, Xiaoni blew the cowhide so loudly. What if it doesn't work?
There was something to laugh at him, but how could a man live on what a little girl gave him? Li Hu quickly put that idea aside. We have to rely on ourselves. We have nothing to fear.
.In fact, the status of a magician’s general is still very high, at least much higher than the highest officer on their planet.
When we entered the area around Zhenzi, the speed of the car had slowed down, and it was almost like walking with people. This was the first time that Li Hu saw so many people. There were tens of thousands of people walking towards the town in all directions. This place was said to be a
A small town, but from a distance it looks like it covers an area of at least a dozen square kilometers. This is the largest trading market within a radius of thousands of miles. Tens of millions of people will want to sell their things here. Here
There are naturally a lot of people here. Although there are some towns in other areas, because Mr. Ross lives here, the popularity here has always been the highest.
"Pay attention. When you get off the car, you have to pay an extra ten yuan per person. This is the protection fee collected by the army just now. If you don't have any change, come to me to change it. You will have to pay it when you enter the town later.
Money. The people over there won't give you change." The guy driving the car stopped a few hundred meters away from the town wall, directed everyone to get off the car, and began to collect the protection that the troops had just collected.
fee.
"Daddy, why do you have to pay money to enter this town?" Li Hu's head was immediately confused. Why does it cost money to enter? Is there any reason for this? It seems that everything you do here requires money, and there is no money.
You can't do anything directly.
"This is also Mr. Ross's rule, but I heard that this rule is everywhere. It's not much, it's only ten yuan per person, but if we can't leave at night and want to live in it, it will cost more. That's a lot of money.
Hundreds and thousands." Old Bart can only save a thousand dollars a month. It would kill him to have him stay here for one night.
"Damn it, you want to sneak in, come on, brothers, catch this kid up." While the two men were talking, they heard a sergeant guarding the city kicking a teenage boy.
It turns out that this kid didn't pay the ten yuan entry fee and wanted to sneak in. He was discovered. This is not bad. The equipment Mr. Ross has can tell how many people have come in. If these soldiers don't put the original number
Hand it over. They have to take out the money, so the young man in front of him has no way to live. Mr. Ross's decree, let alone the tax arrears, is to pay ten yuan less in the city entrance fee. As long as he
A powerful person must be hanged immediately, and his body must be dried on the city wall until someone like him replaces him.
Before the two men could understand, the boy had already been chopped with a knife and lost his life. Then several people worked together to hang the boy up. The whole process only took a few minutes. It seemed that these people were already very strong.
I'm very familiar with the road.
"Let's go, we can't take care of this kind of thing. Mr. Ross's word is the best here." The old man pulled Li Hu, who was still looking at him. This kid is a fool. If he can take care of everything, he must be that one.
In the end, he was just a son, so nothing could happen to him. Old Bart took Li Hu and paid the money and prepared to go in.
"Wait a minute, old man, have you seen it clearly? This guy is still a slave. He also pays ten yuan? For a slave to be like you? Stop being wordy, fifty yuan, otherwise... hehe." Still.
The sergeant who had killed just now saw Li Hu and knew that it was another time to make extra money. Master Ross only said that one person would cost ten yuan, but did not mention the price of the slave. Judging from the appearance of the two people in front of him, they must be related.
It's unusual. You must have freed this guy from his slaves before he went in. This is like unequal treatment on your last day as a slave. This guy knows that Old Bart is not from the town, so people outside have no foundation.
, you can let them hold it and play with it casually, and this person will not have any complaints.
"It clearly says it's ten yuan per person, why should you charge me fifty yuan?" Li Hu spoke first before Old Bart could speak. He had been suppressing his anger all the way. He didn't expect these few days.
How can a person be so shameless? What's the difference between this and an open robbery? It's not as good as those robbers. After all, those people work hard on their own. These people only know how to bully the poor, but they dare not do anything to the powerful.
"Oh, kid, I don't dare to say that, I don't dare to say that." Old Bart was startled. He watched closely but still couldn't catch this kid. Now he was in big trouble.
If the sergeant killed this kid, it would be okay. Didn't you see a low-level citizen kill him just as he asked, let alone the slave in front of him?
"Damn it, you dare to speak again, you are looking for death." This guy is usually used to bullying others, but now he sees a slave who dares to confront him. Wherever he puts his face, he just kicks him.
After passing by, Old Bart wanted to block Li Hu, but he couldn't move his steps, and Li Hu didn't move either. The guy's strength seemed to be quite strong. If he kicked Li Hu this time,
If it was on Hu's chest, Li Hu would be immediately disabled. Everyone closed their eyes and didn't want to see this scene. These sergeants went too far.
"Ah? It's broken, help." Unfortunately, the scene they thought about did not appear. However, the sergeant was now several meters away from Li Hu. His arm seemed to have been bent and deformed. He hit the city wall and broke it.
Yes? Everyone else thought so, but Li Hu said in his heart, I am new here and don’t like killing people. Let me cripple one of your arms to see if you still dare to be arrogant.
The sergeant looked at his bent arm in surprise. He would never have thought that he would be the one injured. He had been bullied by such a country bumpkin not once or twice. This had never happened before. According to his own
I imagined that my kick would definitely destroy this kid, but in the end, he was fine, but my arm was broken.
"What? How dare this kid fight back? What does this idiot Da Zhou do for a living? How come he can't even deal with this guy? He really disgraces us people from the second battalion. Let's go, let's see what this kid is capable of." Others.
Some of the sergeants went over to help the guy up, but more still surrounded him.
This is not a trivial matter. If word spreads, who would take those people who have a few tricks in their hands and take them seriously, the oil and water will definitely be reduced a lot, so the kid in front of you must kill him, otherwise in the future
There have been no days since.
"Several gentlemen. Several gentlemen. My son has been in the slave camp since he was a child. But he has never seen anything. I am really sorry. How about I pay for this military master's medical expenses?"
Bart didn't have any scheming at first glance. In fact, these people were a little scared. This kid destroyed Da Zhou with one move. You must know that in terms of skills, Da Zhou is a good hand, although he is not a warrior level.
, but among ordinary people, he is unparalleled. This guy defeated Da Zhou with one move. What may be the origin of this? I don’t know a few of them. There are so many people in this town. Maybe one of them is the best.
What about the characters? Those few words I just said were just for the occasion. Who really wants to find a scene for this big Zhou? Now I heard Old Bart say this, it turns out that he is someone from the slave camp. If this is not good
How can a small sum of money be worth it? But these people don't think they can get much money from a person who came from a slave camp. How much money does the richest person there have?
"Old man, what are you talking about? When the military commander here is injured, you can only pay for the medical expenses. Why are you looking at this? I haven't seen it before. Who wants to see me handcuff you all and put you in jail?
Look slowly." This guy seemed to be at the level of a squad leader, and while talking to Old Bart, he drove away other people around him.
When Old Bart was still about to beg for mercy, Li Hu stopped him, "Silly boy, if we don't beg him at this time, we will be in misery." Old Bart knew how cruel these people were, and it seemed that Li Hu didn't have any.
A man who was causing trouble quickly said.
"It's okay, godfather, these people just want money." Li Hu whispered, pulling Old Bart behind him. He had just arrived in the town, and he didn't know what was going on here, so it was better not to make a fuss.
It's better. When we get to know each other later, none of these people will be able to escape. Although we are not hateful people, we can't let go of those who have offended us.
"Isn't it just a matter of paying the medical bills? Then tell me how to resolve this matter?" Li Hu glanced at these guys sideways as he spoke. There was a coldness in his eyes, as some of them were used to seeing big scenes.
The soldier actually felt himself trembling all over. Such a thing had never happened before, not even when he met Mr. Ross.
Several people looked at each other, and when they saw each other's soldiers' uniforms, they felt a little more courageous. What's wrong with you guys? This guy is just a slave. Why are you so frightened by this guy?
"How to solve this? Of course there are many ways waiting for you. It depends on how you choose. Do you want to calm down the matter or make the matter worse?" Several more sergeants came around, a dozen or so.
The sergeant surrounded a child, but they were not as scared as before.
"I don't know that there are so many other ways. What should I do to calm the trouble? What should I do if it gets too big?" Li Hu walked straight to the place where several sergeants were resting and stood at the gate of the city to talk about things and delay others.
Entering the city, Old Bart also followed his son in with a look of fear on his face. He didn't understand why a boy who used to look very honest was so bold today. If he knew that his son, even William, was so bold
If you dare to provoke others, you won't be so surprised by what is happening in front of you.
"Haha, what we want most is to put things to rest. You two have things to do when you enter the city, and we also need to be gatekeepers. In this way, I think his injuries are not very serious, just five.
What if we can settle the matter for 10,000 yuan? But if you don’t pay, we will have to deal with official matters, and then you and your father will not be able to survive. Of course, unless you can run to where
Thousands of miles away. Outside Master Ross' territory, no one can do anything to you." The leading guy said with a smile. In fact, twenty thousand yuan was about the same for such a thing in the past, but he felt that the man in front of him could get it.
I wanted to come out, so I asked for 50,000 yuan.
Fifty thousand yuan? Old Bart fainted then. He had only saved 20,000 yuan over the years, and the 20,000 yuan that Uncle Pang gave him a few days ago, but these money are all useful.
I paid 10,000 yuan to change this kid's identity, and I paid 20,000 yuan in the hope of finding him a good job. But the matter at hand costs 50,000 yuan. Wouldn't this cost my life?
Li Hu had another idea. Isn't it just 50,000 yuan? He didn't have a deep concept of money. He still had more than 100 million of William's money in his inner world. He didn't know how much those other things were worth.
I don’t know. Anyway, he still knows the cash. Besides, he also has a priceless treasure with him, but he can remember to give that thing to that girl’s master, so what he says is not nonsense.
"Dad, you go to Uncle Grut first and see if he can think of a way to tell us. I'll stay here." Li Hu said to Old Bart that he didn't care about the money, but he still couldn't let these things go.
My godfather saw it, otherwise it would be very difficult for me to just explain it.
Yes, why did you forget that Grut? His reputation in this town is not small. Old Bart quickly told those military masters. At this time, he was not stupid, saying that he had no
I need to go to the city to find a friend to borrow the money, so my son will deposit it here first. Originally, these guys didn't think they had 50,000 yuan, so naturally they asked one of them to stay and the other to go.
The person who took the money immediately told him to go back quickly, but Old Bart disappeared from the corner of the street. Li Hu took out five bills from his arms. This was the highest denomination, ten thousand yuan each. It was estimated that the entire city
There are only a few companies here that have big money.
"Boss. Boss, this guy has such a note in his hand. Is he... from that family?" One of the sergeants was so sharp-eyed that he was so frightened that he couldn't speak smoothly. They were just errands from that family.
But this is the most powerful family in the town. If we offend their family members, it will be a disaster for a few of us.
After all, this leader has seen the world, and the immaturity of the boy in front of him can still be seen. He is definitely not from that family. The money must have come from unknown sources. Even if we accept this boy, it will definitely be wrong.
If you dare to show off, I guess the person who left just now didn't know that this guy had so much money. Thinking of this, this guy's heart became more stable.
"Boy, you're on the road. We've accepted the 50,000 yuan. Let's go quickly." This guy only has money in his eyes at this time, so he doesn't think much about other things. He gave Da Zhou 20,000 yuan.
For the medical expenses, I will get 10,000 yuan, and they will divide the rest. In total, I will get the most, and I can stay in Piaoxiang for a few days.
I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with these guys when I go there. It's better to leave here early now. These guys are all fools. They are just guys who recognize money but not people. If a few sharp-eyed people recognize it, they will be in trouble for themselves.
Trouble is, I don’t know if the money I gave you can be spent. If there is any mark on the money, there may be William’s enemies.
After Li Hu went out, he walked along the street. He remembered that his godfather once told him that the young master of the Ross family was not far from the city gate. Uncle Grut was that person's entourage and should be there.
, he turned around and asked someone to find out where it was. It turned out that Mr. Ross had nine sons in total, all living on this street, and the mansion at the back belonged to his youngest son.
It seemed that Old Bart hadn't gone very far, and Li Hu saw him when he turned around.
"Godfather, wait for me." Li Hu shouted, causing people on the road to look at what this kid was shouting on the street. But when he looked back, Old Bart enjoyed this very much. He finally saw someone in his lifetime.
He chased me on the street and called me daddy, but then he thought about it, this kid couldn't have escaped, and the sergeant just now didn't lie. If he really offended them and put a wanted order on them, the two of them would really
You can only live in other masters' territories, and you will be forced to death here.
"What's going on? Why did you get out? Did you escape?" Old Bart quickly lowered his voice and asked.
"No, godfather, didn't I kill a wild boar in the past few days? I just happened to have some internal organs from the wild boar. Who knew that guy said it was a good thing? As long as I give him that, he won't hold me accountable.
, and there are such good things?" Li Hu looked silly, making it impossible for others to tell that he was lying.
"Silly boy, I guess that is really a good thing, but no matter how good it is, it is not as important as our lives. You kid can't be so reckless in the future. This is not our place. Anyone can be better than us."
Much stronger, don't think these are just ordinary sergeants. But there are tens of millions of people in Mr. Ross's territory. There are only hundreds of thousands of sergeants, and they are not ordinary people." Although Old Bart also regrets that he doesn't know
What a wild boar baby, but that was nothing compared to his son's freedom. He immediately took Li Hu and introduced some of the situation in the town.
"That is the residence of the young master of the Ross family. Wait for me here. I will go over and ask you if Uncle Grut is back." Old Bart put Li Hu in a place not far from the gate. Like Li Hu
Slaves like Tiger are not allowed to go near there, otherwise they will be beheaded immediately. The treatment of slaves. The people here are not so kind.
Li Hu agreed and started looking around. For him who had only stayed in a slave camp, everything here seemed so new. He didn't know there were so many interesting things before.
