Chapter 934： Lady of the city

"Why did the champion Hou come to Biancheng?" Du Wenbian asked carefully.

The appearance of this great man in the border town brought the death of the sovereign?

"Just pass by and look at friends by the way."

Zhou Ran said indifferently that he would not tell the Lord of the Border Town about the Northland.

Du Wenbian immediately came to Lin Xuan and complimented, "Mr. Lin, I didn't expect you to be a friend of the champion Hou. What happened today is more offending. Please ask Mr. Lin not to mind!"

The lord of the town by the side of the town was actually polite to himself, a foreigner, and Lin Xuan was flattered.

All of this is Zhou Ran's credit. Lin Xuan did not know what Zhou Ran did, but one can imagine that Zhou Ran was only afraid of giving credit to King Guoli.

"Champion Hou, I will order the main palace to set up a banquet, and also ask Champ Hou and Lin not to shy away!" Du Wen nodded and bowed.

Zhou Ran was a bit tired from driving to Marlough. After coming to the border town, he had no place to stay. It was not bad to be able to stay in the main palace for a few days.

As for Lin Xuan, he will stay in Biancheng for a while. In order to ensure that Lin's business is safe and secure, he will not miss the chance of being close to Du Wenbian.

Zhou Ran and Lin Xuan both agreed, Du Wenbian was overjoyed and immediately ordered people to prepare wine and meat.

The host of the frontier city hosted a banquet in the backyard of the main mansion to entertain Zhou Ran and Lin Xuan.

Not only wine and food, but also dancing and dancing, the whole city's main palace is lively.

"Champion Hou, the border town is located in a remote place, with poor resources. Rough tea and light rice, Shan Ye Village, please don't mind, just make it!"

Du Wen made a toast while paying compensation to Zhou Ran.

Zhou Ran did not say anything.

The wine, singing and dancing in the border town are no longer good, and they are much better than those in the north.

Zhou Ran was enjoying himself, Lin Xuan took advantage of this opportunity and couldn't stop talking to Du Wen while talking about business matters.

Thanks to Zhou Ran’s friend, Du Wenbian's request for Lin Xuan was very precise and opened the door to convenience.

After three tours, a woman rushed into the backyard.

"Du Wenbian, you can't open the pot at home, you are still here to feast your guests! As soon as today is over, the main palace of the city of tomorrow will drink northwest wind!"

Zhou Ran and Lin Xuan were stunned, so good, why did this woman break in and say a lot of messy things?

Du Wenbian was furious, and said, "Come on! Let her blow me out!"

Several family members came to the woman and wanted to drive the woman out of the backyard.

But the woman was not reluctant, and chattered: "Du Wenbian, what's the use even if you kick me out? Do you really think you can carry everything down?"

Ding Ji's family's identity is not too much to block. All the words of the woman are heard in Zhou Ran's ears.

Zhou Ran curiously said: "Master Du, who is this?"

Du Wen, with a bitter face on his face, said: "This is my wife. His words are reckless and annoy the champion. Please forgive me."

Zhou Ran said: "Since the city's main palace is hosting a banquet, why did you keep your wife away? What she said just now, I am very concerned about the city master of Jingguobian, why can't the family open the pot? City master Du, let your wife come forward speak."

"Yes."

Du Wenbian had no choice but to order Jia Ding to release Mrs. Du.

Mrs. Du saw Zhou Ran, still a bad face.

Zhou Ran asked: "Mrs. Du, you said that the city's mansion will not be able to open the pot. What does this mean? The stately city owner has a solid family and should not worry about food and clothing, right?"

Mrs. Du sneered and said: "Champions, you are high up, where do you know that the border town is suffering? The border town is poor, and there is not much oil and water. My husband, as a city owner, can only live on a small salary. But now, the city's main palace He had to pay for the money, and he was already unable to make ends meet. Now, he is still feasting on the main palace. Once you leave the border town, the main palace will go up and down, and you have to go to the street to have dinner!"

Ms. Du said it really, and Zhou Ran also heard some ways.

"City Lord's Mansion with money upside down? What upside down?"

Ms. Du opened the conversation box, and naturally no longer concealed.

"Those who are not the tax bureau yet, the city's main government has to hand over the money to the tax bureau, so it is getting poorer!"

"Tax Department? Where does Jing Guo come from?"

Zhou Ran was confused.

Although he doesn’t know much about Jing Guo, he also knows about Jing Guo’s national institutions.

The city-states of Jingguo have always been highly autonomous. The city-states are responsible for their own profits and losses and pay taxes to the country on time. Within Jingguo, there is no such department as a tax department.

"Qingfengju, is the taxation department of Gyeongguk."

Lin Xuan whispered that he was a businessman and knew everything about the tax department.

Mrs. Du also heard Lin Xuan's words and said: "Yes, it is the tax department of Qing Guo! Since the newly appointed sovereign took office, Qing Guo monopolized the power and deprived the powers of the city-states! The tax department is directly under the sovereign of Qing Guo. Of institutions that collect taxes for their owners, they not only collect their own taxes, but also taxes of neighboring countries!"

"Why doesn't it matter!"

Zhou Ran dropped the wine glass to the ground.

Biancheng is a Jingguo city-state, and the Gyeongguk Tax Department dared to come to Biancheng to collect taxes.

Du Wen saw Zhou Ran angry at www.novelhall.com~ and quickly knelt in front of Zhou Ran.

"Championship, I am also helpless! The border town is remote. If Qingguo soldiers come to commit crimes, Jing Guoyuan will not be able to hydrolyze his thirst. I will only fear that my soul will be charcoal! So I subsidize the tax department with money from the city's main government. Tax, this is also for the tranquility of the border city, and merchants in the foreign and internal domains can safely do business!"

Zhou Ran's face sank and said, "Jing Jiaguan's battle, Jing Guo's army came back victoriously. You, as a lord of the border city, but doing the fools, really embarrassed Jing Guo!"

"Champion Hou Raoming! Champion Hou Raoming!"

Du Wen's kowtow, his head was knocked.

Mrs. Du no longer blamed, and began to plead for Du Wenbian: "Champions, the country is weak, the people are weak, if Jing Guo is strong in diplomacy, how could my husband be bullied? All this is caused by the inaction of the sovereign. of!"

Mrs. Du denounced the sovereign in public. Zhou Ran didn't blame. Instead, she looked at her face and opened a side to Du Wen's side net.

"City Master Du, looking at your wife's face, I will not dispose of you for the time being, but you have sent so much money for the Qingguo Tax Department, you must come back!"

"Want to come back? How come?"

Du Wen was trembling in frontier battles. The money he sent out was like splashed water. How could he get it back?

"Don't worry, this time, I will go with you! If you don't have to return all the money, you, the city owner, don't be a fan again!".

Zhou Ran's attitude was firm, Du Wenbian was helpless and could only declare the banquet stopped.

After that, Du Wenbian took Zhou Ran to the place of Qingguo Taxation Department.
