After Shen Feng and Yue Hengyi brought the food back, they continued to lie in the shrine. Now, no one has any objection to the two living in the shrine, because they found that at the critical moment, begging the Bodhisattva and gods is useless. Yes, it was two outsiders who could help them.
On the contrary, Shen Feng and Yue Hengyi are more like the protectors of these people, able to protect their safety at critical moments.
Two women followed Shen Feng and Yue Hengyi to the shrine, but ended up living with the children. The old man did not refuse the two women's surrender. It is the end of the world, and it is not easy to survive. The survival logic of the people at the bottom is Only by uniting can we have strength.
A gold button can weigh 20 grams, but it is only exchanged for more than 50 kilograms of rice and noodles. This kind of price is either suppressed, or the prices here are very expensive.
Shen Feng roughly calculated that the price of food has skyrocketed in the apocalypse. People will starve to death if they don't eat. Moreover, he is still in the Japanese country. There is very little cultivated land in this place. Now it has caught up with such a situation. As the years go by, the price naturally increases.
"Oh no, there are not enough gold buttons!" Shen Feng secretly thought in his mind that he had brought too little gold with him when he went out this time, and it would not be enough to cover his recovery period.
Shen Feng took out three buttons on his body, with a tangled look on his face. Not having enough money was the most helpless thing, especially now.
After thinking about it, Shen Feng looked at Yue Hengyi and said: "Xiaoyue, at this critical moment, we are probably going to do something big, otherwise we will have nothing to eat!"
Yue Hengyi thought for a while, and it was true that most of the food on the ship had been soaked and eaten in the past few days, and the remaining money was not enough to support the next expenses. After much deliberation, he could only go into it by mistake. Wrong way! I have to say, money comes faster if you go astray.
Even the ancients said that a man would not be rich without windfall, and a horse would not be fat without night grass. It can be seen that the ancient people were also very open-minded. As long as they can make money, nothing else matters.
"Are you going to cover your face then?" Yue Hengyi asked in a low voice.
Shen Feng thought for a moment and said, "What's the point of robbing the poor? Why are you masked? We'll rob whoever has the money, and we have to do it openly."
"How does this work?" Yue Hengyi was puzzled and asked immediately.
Shen Feng did not answer directly, but said: "Cultivation first, you still have money now, don't worry, I will take you to operate it when you have no money!"
In the next five days, Shen Feng and Yue Hengyi continued to rest. Every day, orphans brought food. If there was no food, Shen Feng would throw a gold button over and continue to go to the city to exchange for supplies. The city is still quite far away from the shrine, more than ten kilometers away. If you are a child, it will take half a day to walk.
After this period of cultivation, Shen Feng and Yue Hengyi have become much stronger. The muscles on their bodies have slowly grown out, and their faces have gained color. Although they are still very thin, they are no longer as scary as they looked before. It doesn't look like a corpse.
However, on that day, when Shen Feng and Yue Hengyi were still taking a nap, a group of people came outside the shrine. They were in suits and leather shoes, and were followed by security guards. They had pens and papers in their hands, pointing and pointing as they walked. The old man of the shrine is following him, following the instructions of these people.
Under normal circumstances, when Shen Feng and Yue Hengyi are sleeping, these orphans don't dare to make a fuss. Even if they are playing, the noise will be much quieter. They know that the two heroes sleeping in the shrine are very powerful. , we can't annoy them, but at noon today, the sounds outside the door are getting louder and louder.
Shen Feng couldn't bear it any longer. He opened the door of the shrine and saw that there were several young men in black suits who were giving orders. The orphans were so frightened by these people that they hid.
Seeing this scene, Shen Feng couldn't help but push
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
He pushed Yue Hengyi next to him and said: "Xiao Yue, don't sleep, don't you want to learn how to rob in an fair and just way? When the opportunity comes, these people must be better than me in teaching."
Yue Hengyi opened his eyes sleepily and looked outside the shrine, only to find a group of staff. He was immediately confused. These people were not bandits. How could he educate himself?
When Yue Hengyi looked confused, these staff members came over, pointed at the two people lying on the wooden floor in a condescending manner, and began to ask, "What do you do?"
Shen Feng and Yue Hengyi could not understand Japanese, so they did not answer.
The old man from the shrine came over and quickly explained: "These two adults came from China. Their ship was wrecked at sea. Now they are living here temporarily. They shouldn't have to pay taxes, right?"
When the man in the suit heard this, he said angrily: "As long as they are within our jurisdiction, no matter who they are, they need to pay taxes. There are no exceptions. Let Qingjia come over. Can't he speak Chinese? Let him Come translate!”
Soon, a man with glasses came over and started to translate in broken Chinese, "You are also citizens in our territory, and you also need to pay taxes. You two need to pay taxes every month." They are all strong laborers, and everyone needs to pay one liter of grain!"
When Shen Feng heard this, he felt dumbfounded. He pointed to the dry muscles on his arms and said: "You are, how do you think we are strong laborers? We are already so weak, and you still want to squeeze us. It’s amazing!”
However, these staff members ignored Shen Feng's excuse and directly threw two receipts to Shen Feng and Yue Hengyi, saying: "You must pay the tax before tomorrow, otherwise, don't blame us. You're welcome, I'll take you to work in the factory!"
Then, a group of staff looked at the old man and a group of children and said, "As for you, you didn't pay all the taxes last time. Now, you don't even want to live here. Come on, give me the house." Burned!"
After saying that, a security guard in yellow clothes came over with gasoline, poured gasoline around the shrine, and was about to light it on fire.
This move caused a group of children to resist, and they rushed to stop them. For them, this is their only home. If this place is burned down, they will really be homeless! So, children They don't want to sail to their final home, so they can only resist.
It's a pity that the security guards don't care about this and just punch and kick the children. It's a pity that the six or seven-year-old children have not fully developed their bodies. They have to face attacks from others and are immediately knocked to the ground. It looks like Very miserable.
A little girl saw the chaotic scene and started crying while sitting on the ground, while the old man knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing to the staff, looking very pitiful.
When Yue Hengyi saw this scene, he immediately understood and said to himself: "I understand, I understand. Sometimes, you don't need to use knives and guns to rob. You can also use paper and pen, and it is more efficient!"
After saying that, Yue Hengyi looked at Shen Feng and asked: "It seems that you have known that this kind of thing would happen. Is it possible that you did the same thing in Yuzhou? Are you the reincarnation of Zhou Bapi?"
Yue Hengyi's idea is very simple. You Shen Feng seems to have learned this trick a long time ago. In addition, you have always been the ruler in Yuzhou. Your butt determines your head. You can imagine how many Shen Feng will have in the position of city lord. A despicable move!
When Shen Feng heard this, he immediately became unhappy and said quickly: "You can't frame me falsely! How can you compare me with a bunch of moths? I took it from the people and used it for the people, building city walls and roads. Repairing hydropower stations and organizing farming, which one of these things does not create employment? Besides, I don’t charge taxes on the elderly and children. If I am a bastard, then there will be no good people in the world!"
"Then you still
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Living in a palace? Where does such a huge expense come from?" Yue Hengyi asked.
Shen Feng replied: "Nonsense, I can support a whole family. The apple trees in my home alone can produce several tons of apples every day. My wife can ripen plants and find a farm to produce hundreds of tons of vegetables." , it’s not easy to feed a family!”
"That's right, that's right. I forgot that your family is all superpowers. It's my fault that I misunderstood you!" Yue Hengyi quickly admitted his mistake.
Then, Shen Feng looked at the staff who could speak Chinese and asked: "Since you arrest people who don't pay taxes and force them to work, you might as well arrest these children too! Can't they also work? ?”
"Are you a loser? Do you know that these children are malnourished and if they are caught in the factory, they will die in two days!" Suddenly, the staff looked at Shen as if they were looking at a fool. Feng and Yue Hengyi.
At this time, some security guards had already set fire to the shrine's house. This dilapidated residence, which was barely sheltered from the wind and rain, was burned to the ground.
The raging flames rose, and the fiery red light shone on people's faces. The children were crying sadly. They had lost their parents, and now they had lost their last residence. They were so sad that they had to cry, and the people who lit the fire were The security guard stood silently, watching the billowing black smoke rising. This was not the first house they had burned, and it would not be the last. As for the staff who caused all this, there was a proud smile on their face. .
"Tell these two untouchables that if they don't pay taxes as soon as possible, these ordinary houses, not to mention shrines, will be burned down!" The leader of the tax collectors was shouting loudly. He believed that, His current actions have shocked these two foreign untouchables, and then made them pay taxes obediently.
The shrine is actually not very big, just a few square meters of space. Normally, it has no function other than enshrining the statue of the god. But now, Shen Feng and Yue Hengyi have invited the statue to the shade of the tree. The two of them are also facing The dilemma of paying taxes.
The translator repeated the boss's words. After Shen Feng and Yue Hengyi looked at each other, they both felt very funny. They didn't expect that they could do evil so openly, burning down other people's homes, extorting other people's finances, and finally assuming a condescending attitude. , it turns out that this is the master of human beings!
Yue Hengyi looked at Shen Feng and asked, "How to deal with it?"
"Have you learned? If you want to commit an honest robbery, you must first put a label on others, and then force them to give money. If you don't give money, you should show your strength and let the other party know how powerful you are, and just pay them back obediently. If you don't give money, you'll beat people up, and all of this is done under the banner of justice! The nature of the world has never changed, it's always been about the weak and the strong!" Shen Feng did not answer directly, but said to himself. .
Yue Hengyi suddenly understood and said: "I understand, Brother Feng, just watch, let me try and see if robbery is like this!"
After saying that, Yue Hengyi walked out of the shrine, pointed at the noses of a group of staff, and said arrogantly: "You have disturbed our precious rest time. I advise you to pay us two tons of grain as soon as possible, otherwise, we will have to Taught you a lesson!"
"That's right, your understanding is very high!" Shen Feng sat aside and praised.
This group of arrogant staff members have never seen such a scene before. They have always been extorting money, no, collecting taxes, and others can only treat them with respect. But now, there is a foreign untouchable. Dare to point to your nose.
The leader immediately became angry, reached into his breast pocket and pulled out a gun, and said fiercely: "You two untouchables, go to hell!"
Shen Feng also added at this time, "Speaking of which, these robbers will do one more thing, and that is to kill the disobedient people. In this way, the remaining people will all be obedient. !Come on!”
