v9 Chapter 34: Depressed Massims

The kingdom's comments on his death are also intensified, especially after his will was announced that he would “donate most of the estate to the kingdom”, the elders no longer have any objections: the statue was in the Pantheon, and at the same time A statue of him in front of the finance department was also approved.

Even for his funeral, even the opening of the Greek Scholars Conference was postponed a few days later.

A few days later, the Senate again announced an important news: the only governor of the Kingdom of Dionia, whose term of office lasted more than four years, stepped down, and the veteran Bagulle took over as governor of southern Iberia. The Senate also added a rotating chairmanship, which was transferred from Haka to Turui.

Important changes in the politics of the Kingdom of Dionia have not attracted much attention of ordinary people. The hottest thing in the streets and cities of the Kingdom today is whether the citizens of Dionia should pay more taxes to increase the military expenditure of the Kingdom. To solve border security issues.

From the fierce controversy at the beginning (most of the registered freelancers and reserve citizens supported the need to pay more taxes, while the vast majority of citizens opposed it), many citizens began to think "as long as we can not let them experience long-term pain, It is worth paying more taxes ", and nowadays, the main topic of debate among the people has become the question of" how much more taxes should be paid ". The entire evolution process has only gone through more than ten days.

The ability to make such rapid changes is, on the one hand, the result of the full promotion of the intelligence department, and the other main reason is that the vast majority of citizens are first-generation citizens of the Kingdom of Dionia. They are all in the process of establishing and rising the kingdom. Participants and founders who used sweat and spears to promote the growth of the Kingdom of Dionia, and at the same time, under the influence of Dionian law and the temple of Hades, a strong feeling in their hearts When the kingdom does encounter difficulties and needs them to sacrifice a little of their own interests and provide help, they can finally make a reasonable choice.

In the street taverns, diners are still arguing fiercely: "I hope that the direct tax paid by citizens should be 15%. Since people like Athens, Corinth, Thebes ... these traditional Greek city-states can serve the city-state. In the public interest, paying such a high tax, even some tax rates are higher than this. Dionysian citizens who claim to be 'most patriotic' have a lot of land and should accept this tax rate calmly. "

"15% is a bit high, and it was originally only 1%. Now suddenly I want to receive 15%. This change is too great. I guess many people can't stand it. Seven or eight percent should be more reasonable."

"I said that you are so happy to discuss the issue of paying taxes here, have you considered that formal citizens will increase and we will increase the same tax!"

"I am single and pay as much tax as I can make a living. I don't have the trouble of starting a family for the time being, so don't worry."

"Of course I have considered this issue. I think the more the tax is paid, the richer the kingdom will be, and it will be more beneficial to us, free people and prepared citizens, because after paying military expenses, the kingdom can use more surplus money to build Better public facilities, buying more food to stabilise food prices, subsidizing hospitals to reduce their medical expenses ... and these benefit us more than formal citizens. After all, they are already rich enough and don't care much. . "

"That makes sense, so I decided to change my mind and support a 15% tax."

...

A group of people were having a good chat, suddenly listening to the chef shouting, "Mathims, you are coming!"

"what……"

"Or a beer?"

"Correct."

The diners came over immediately, and someone with good things asked immediately, "Massims, how are you going to find a job today?"

"I said you were stupid. Do you still need to ask? You can tell by looking at him that he didn't succeed."

Maximus squeezed out a bitter smile and reluctantly explained: "In fact, at the interview, the head of the library already wanted to hire me as a writer, but the people next to me said a few more words. Knowing that I was ... after the liberation of Roman slaves, he hesitated and said to me, 'If I come back in a few months, and when that event subsides, he will definitely hire me' "

"I said, Maximus, don't blame the Turiya officials for not hiring you. The Romans' conspiracy and rebellion are not over. They want to assassinate the great King Daphs. This is a big thing. The Turui City Hall is so close to the Senate and the Royal Palace, just in case ... I mean, in case they really hired you, as a result, what happened to you, they will all be affected, so For the sake of security, of course, they dare not risk hiring you. That person said nicely, 'After a few months' ... Hehe, I don't think that the Turui City Hall will dare to hire Romans again in one or two years! "

The words of this diner made Massimus' face look a bit ugly for a moment.

"Don't talk blindly." Another diner comforted: "Massims, don't listen to him, things are not so serious, everyone knows that Davis will always treat all races in the kingdom equally and will never allow it This kind of thing happened, so this kind of thing is only temporary, you do n’t even have to wait for a few months. You look at it, and you will get better soon, because Turui ’s new chief executive is about to take office soon. Lilius Pribius, a true Roman, how could he allow the town hall to discriminate against his fellow citizens in this way! "

"You don't understand!" The former diner countered: "Pubulius's appointment as the chief executive of Turui has been very controversial. In order to avoid suspicion and security, on the contrary he is likely to be in Turri in the early days of his administration. The city controlled the Romans ... "

Massimus listened, and his heart became more and more embarrassed: the assassination of Davers also involved the eldest son of Pbulius. Whether he reported it or not, his past colleagues were sure It was ruined once, not only couldn't go to him for help, I'm afraid I had to hide from him, so it seems that Turui City Hall can't go, and he doesn't want to go back to the slave camp, is he really going to Tuli Looking for something to do in Iraq? But in this way, there will be fewer opportunities to shorten the period of full citizenship as soon as possible ... "

Massimus was thinking bitterly, and another diner sighed, "These **** Romans! Oh, Massimus, I'm not saying you ... they made such a big thing that this year's academic conference The security protection is much stricter than in previous years. It is much more difficult for us to listen to the lectures of academics if we want to enter and leave the school freely. "

"What is nice about those speeches, and we don't understand them. Instead of sitting there blindly, we might as well use this time to make more money and come here to buy a few more drinks!"

"That's right! That's right!"

"You do n’t understand. I do n’t understand most of the lectures given by scholars, but you can meet some celebrities you usually do n’t see at this conference, such as veteran Ansitanos, Matisse Patriarch ... wait, of course, our great King Daphs, many of you may not have seen our King in person once, but I can see it every year, if you are lucky, you can still enter him At the venue where I was listening to him at close range, it was really ... "

The diner's intoxicated appearance made others feel a little bit tickled when he saw it. Someone asked eagerly: "Tell us, what does Her Majesty the King say at the academic conference?"

"Uh ... this ... Her Majesty is a descendant of the **** Hades, who has been inspired by God. Some scholars in private have called him omniscient. His speech is so esoteric, how can I remember it, I just remember Before the speech, he thanked everyone for coming to listen to him ... "

"Don't all the talks in our kingdom start like this at the beginning, how could the great king be like them, and I think you're just talking blindly, in fact, you have never heard your majesty's speech at all!" A diner questioned , Others also hissed, they were dissatisfied with the complacentness of this person before, and took the opportunity to coax.

The diner was anxious: "Of course I have heard Your Majesty's speech! I tell you ... I ... I tell you ... This year's academic conference also happened a very interesting thing! Not only did His Majesty the King make a speech, And Prince Apox took the stage and gave a speech-"

"Prince Apox? I remember that he was the second son of Her Majesty Davis ~ www.novelhall.com ~ It should be under 18 this year." A diner apparently doubted this.

"You don't know now. Although Apox is still young, he is a descendant of Hades. He was favored by the gods. He was very smart since he was a child. He graduated from the Turui school in advance. It is said that Dionia The colleges of the academy scrambled to ask him to study in his own college, and he also fought hard. As a result, Apox became a formal student of the School of Mathematics and the Faculty of Arts at the same time. This has never happened since the establishment of Theonian College. "" Said the diner, with a high toe, "he has been studying in the academy for several years, and now he can give a speech at the academic conference and express his own opinions. What ’s so strange!"

"We're just a little curious ... after all, young ..." said the diners who questioned before.

Seeing that the other party had already been subdued, the diner did not take advantage of the pursuit, but expressed his understanding: "In fact, not only do you think so, some scholars at the venue also think so. People also tried to make Prince Apox difficult. As a result, don't look at Prince Apox's young age, and his deliciousness is also very sharp. Soon, the Tarantum people were silent. Cheers for him! You haven't seen Tarantum's frustrated look, that's really annoying! "
