Chapter 27

In the gatehouse at the city gate, the young tax collector met Li Po again.

The tax collector felt that he had not seen this rather strange boy for a long time.

And Li Po also felt that the tax officer had changed a lot after not seeing each other for a few days, because the concierge was occupied by the tax officer. There used to be a corps commander here, but now the tax officer is alone. Later he found out that the tax officer simply moved the new corps commander.

The commander also rushed to the arrow tower.

Now the tax collector has the final say at the city gate.

When Li Po saw the tax collector, he was pouring and drinking leisurely in the concierge.

The wine has definitely changed, and the food is no longer so simple.

Overall, the changes are really not small.

However, the tax collector's attitude towards Li Po remained the same, cold and indifferent.

Li Po himself was still the same, with a smile on his face and a slight bow, showing respect, but he was cursing in his heart, this concierge is not a paradise that makes people miss him, so why doesn't this guy want to leave?

"What happened again?"

The tax official asked calmly while drinking wine. In one sentence, Li Po was a little embarrassed.

After thinking about the wording in his mind, he said carefully: "There was a murder in Renshi. You should have heard about it, right?"

The tax collector immediately frowned. The murder of seventeen lives occurred so close to the city gate. How could he not hear about it?

Not only had he heard about it, he also knew that it was true that the case was settled quickly, but the people and things affected were far beyond people's imagination.

He even knew that all the officials in the county government had been scolded by the county magistrate.

If this case had occurred earlier in the morning, it would have probably turned into a large-scale manhunt that affected the entire city of Mayi. Many people would have been unlucky because of this, and the case would never have been suppressed as quickly as it is now.

However, this case was not a small one. It happened in Ren City in the north of the city, but it had little to do with him, the city gate tax collector.

Moreover, what made him faintly happy was that the meritorious man with the surname Li was still out for fun. When he came back, he would definitely be stunned and anxious, which would be enough for him to endure for a while.

Naturally, he would not explain these things to the refugees.

"What does this matter to you? Do you know who the murderer is?"

Li Poxin said, not only do I know who the murderer is, but I can also kill you as a piece of shit if I make you angry.

But he smiled and said: "How can a villain know where those heroes are? I came to see you because I want to talk to you and find a place to live in the human market...

..”

"You also know that the villain is living here and his life is in danger. The villain now just wants to find a sheltered place in Mayi City to survive with his brother."

"There are a lot of vacant houses in the market. They are so idle. I feel a little distressed when I see them... Hehe, but I don't dare to take them by force..."

There is no big friendship, just come to ask for help, embarrassment is inevitable.

As for the benefits to people, Li Po thought it would be better not to mention them, but just looking at the tax collector's behavior, he couldn't give people exciting benefits.

In fact, Li Po had been thinking about talking to the tax collector for a long time.

It is not too difficult to find a living in the refugee market now. The difficulty lies in finding a place to stay. The thatched huts in the refugee camp are really not a place for people to stay.

However, if you want to occupy a room in the market, after much deliberation, you have to find this person. Even if Yuchi, Liu Wu, etc. are willing to help, it is not easy.

The tax collector couldn't help but feel happy. He glanced at Li Po and didn't think much about it. He just thought that this man looked quite smart. Why was he so ignorant now?

In his opinion, this matter is really not a big deal. It can be easily solved by asking the county government to break the seal and move in a few people.

But having said that, you come to beg me, do you think you can do it?

But when I thought about it again, I felt relieved.

Those who are on the verge of death will naturally burn incense and become Buddhas.

This is what he thought was right. Li Po came here with the idea of ​​​​shooting first if there is a date or not. Regardless of whether he agrees or not, he will give it a try first.

The tax official showed just a hint of contempt, and Li Po knew that this person was probably hopeless...

However, the tax collector took a sip of his wine, nodded and said, "It's an easy task, you can do something for me too."

Li Po blinked his eyes, but without much hesitation, he bowed and said: "You saved the lives of my brother, the villain, and I went through fire and water for you. I will do whatever it takes."

The tax collector frowned slightly. The details of the etiquette made him a little uncomfortable. Let alone the refugees, even if the county officials were smaller and benefited from him, they should kowtow to express their gratitude. However, this kid in front of him seemed to have never

I never saw him bend his knees...

Moreover, what he said... made him feel a little suspicious about Li Po's origin again.

However, in the end he waved his hand and said lazily: "Go ahead, choose a place, come to me and tell me, hum, I won't let you go through fire and water. I will send someone to look for you in two days."

After that, without any further words, Li Po left the concierge contentedly.

As for what he did for others, Li Po didn't care too much. When he arrived in Mayi, he already had nineteen lives on his back. What could be more difficult than killing someone?

As long as your own life is safe, don't worry about him.

That night, Li Po walked into the concierge again and soon came out happy.

After noon the next day, he went to the concierge again.

So, early in the morning on the third day, Li Po took Li Chun and called two more refugees, and swaggered into the market.

Four unkempt and ragged guys walking on the streets of the city attracted great attention.

If it had been normal, someone would have come up and asked him angrily, and they would have probably kicked and dragged the person into his own store to sell it.

When such people enter the human market, aren't they just obvious sheep?

But now, just after the storm, no one dared to do this. There were a few idlers on the street, but they all watched helplessly as a few guys walked by, unwilling to go up to force the business.

So, these people walked around the market without incident, and finally stopped in front of the big house where the murder had occurred.

What was shocking was that the half-grown kid at the head went up and tore off the official seal. He pushed open the heavy door as if he were entering his own home, and walked in with his people.

(Please recommend, please collect, and please reward.

Recently, Ah Cao watched The Road to Harvard, and then Good Will Hunting, and Mona Lisa Smile. After watching several films, I felt that no matter how people evaluate the education system of the East and the West, only the film itself, although there is art in it

The processed ingredients are there, but it’s enough to impress people.

Looking back on my student life, I feel so pale and ashamed that until I graduated from college, I actually didn’t form any thoughts worth mentioning. I couldn’t even mention the word “thought” until I was in my thirties.

Now, the outlook on life and the world have only taken shape, which has to be said to be a kind of sadness.)
