Several people were talking and walking towards the alliance, but at this moment, those selling vegetables suddenly became commotion.
Xiao Qiang was clearing away the roses on the table. When he heard the commotion in the distance, he stopped asking for the roses and pulled Xiao Yu away.
"Come on, the steward is here."
On the street where they were exchanging food, someone shouted something, and people suddenly became commotion.
"Stop, I'll break your legs if I run again."
There was a loud shout in the distance, and then more than a dozen men emerged from nowhere on both sides of the street and quickly blocked both ends of the street.
"Xiao Yu, leave quickly. These people are very vicious. Don't get entangled with them."
When Xiao Qiang saw the person coming, he immediately urged.
Xiao Yu was a little surprised. How could such a person appear in the family area of the alliance? Could it be that he was here to collect protection money?
Qinglong leaned against Xiao Yu and whispered:
"Don't conflict with them. These people manage the houses and security in the alliance. Although they are not very powerful, they can cut off water and electricity at home. If we provoke them now, they will take measures against our family members after we leave.
Revenge is not worthwhile."
Qinglong explained it quickly, and Xiao Yu finally understood that it is said that wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and this is correct.
Even here in the family area of the Alliance, there are still local bullies who harm one party.
"Isn't there anyone who cares? What do they mean by coming here to ask for protection money?"
According to the rules and regulations of the city management outside, they are not allowed to set up stalls casually, so as not to affect the appearance of the city. But this is a place where vegetables are exchanged, and no one is provoked. Why should they take care of it?
"If you want money, what else can you want besides money?"
Qinglong sighed helplessly.
“Although daily necessities are distributed here on a regular basis, there are always some things that cannot be bought, such as cigarettes and women.
These people are here mainly to repair and maintain the safety of the place. They have no income, so they can only extort some money from the family members, and then bribe the captain to go outside and bring them what they need."
Qinglong explained in a low voice, and only then did Xiao Yu understand.
All the people who were exchanging vegetables stood where they were, looking at the young people with anger and without words.
Those who went home after the exchange were secretly happy, but these people were not so lucky!
The men stood in two rows, all wearing black suits and sunglasses, like members of the underworld. The leader was wearing a white robe, with long hair hanging down his back, like a disciple of the Immortal Sect on TV, giving people a sense of
Very elegant feeling.
The man was very handsome, with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and a kind of arrogance that looked down upon the world.
"Don't you know that you pay rent every day?"
Next to the man in white, a short and fat little fat man looked at everyone and shouted with an unkind look on his face.
"I pay rent every day. My son hasn't come back for several years. How can I have money to pay you?"
An old man shouted angrily.
"That is, my husband has not been heard from for two years, and we have no income here. How can we pay the rent for you? Are you trying to force us to death?"
"You threaten my family members every day because of your connections. What kind of Taoist are you?"
Everyone was talking in a flurry of words, but from their eyes, you could still feel some fear.
"Hey, okay, you want to rebel? Come on, get the roster."
The obese man seemed to have been used to this kind of conversation for a long time, and said lightly to the person behind him.
Behind the other party, a woman wearing enchanting clothes walked out quickly and pressed a roster against it.
"Gao Tianfu was killed by Western Xuanmen forces last month when he was out in China on business...
Gu Hua was killed by a monster three months ago in Shiwan Mountain in Miao territory.
Zhou Ruiming, on the way to investigate the Ghost King, his soul was taken away by an evil spirit."
.............
The obese man read out the names of more than a dozen people in succession. Every time a name was read out, the crowd would cry.
"Do you understand, these dozen people are already dead. Since they are dead, they have no value to the alliance at all. You staying here is also a waste of food, so I'd better send you back to China as soon as possible to fend for yourself.
If you want to live here, then just pay your taxes on time and I can kick you out later, otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude."
After hearing these words, Xiao Yu felt extremely heavy.
The people who can come here are basically the same as me, they have contributed to the alliance, and they are all disciples of the inner alliance.
But when those Inner League disciples died, their families would be expelled.
When I returned to China, I had no guarantee of life, no home, no farm. I have to say that the reality is cruel.
"You are lying, my son will not die, you are lying."
An old lady was holding on to the fence beside her fearfully, crying loudly in disbelief.
"Huh, don't believe it? It's up to you to believe it or not, but you have to pay taxes and fees, otherwise tonight, all water and electricity will be cut off and you won't even be able to eat."
The short fat man shouted loudly, and several men behind him took a small basket and walked towards the crowd.
Xiao Yu and the others stood at the front because they had already prepared to leave, and the person collecting the money was the first to stand in front of them.
"Forget it, they just came yesterday, give them face."
Just when his subordinates were about to collect taxes and fees from Xiao Yu and the others, the man in white spoke calmly.
Xiao Yu and Qinglong both looked at the man in surprise. The two of them walked directly towards home without saying a word, but after taking two steps, they stopped again.
Because behind me, the cry of the old woman from before could be heard. The reason was that she had no money.
"You old man, your son just transferred one million to you last year. You think we don't know? How dare you say that you have no money. If you don't pay, I will throw you into the sea to feed the fish."
A man collecting taxes shouted sternly.
"If you don't have money, either kill me today or send me back to my hometown, otherwise I won't live."
The old woman sat on the ground and cried loudly. It was obvious that the sudden death of her son had caused a big blow to her.
"Then we'll see, I'll let you spend your days in darkness tonight."
The fat man sneered, and then looked at the others. Wherever he looked, everyone hurriedly lowered their heads, and some people began to take out money and prepare to pay taxes.
Xiao Yu frowned and looked at all this. If he hadn't come here in person, he wouldn't have known that this place was not as peaceful as he thought.
"Wu Ming, don't bully others too much. You have to know that if I go back and appeal to the alliance leader, you will be replaced in a minute. Don't think that just because your grandfather protects the elders, you can do whatever you want here."
Qinglong couldn't stand it anymore and stepped forward and shouted.
Xiao Yu and the ghost corpse stood on the side, looking at this group of people with evil eyes.
Hearing Qinglong's scolding, all the charging disciples stopped, and even the family members of the alliance showed expectant eyes.
"Leader? Humph, I mean Qinglong, although your protector's name is somewhat intimidating, it's of no use to me.
The alliance leader is only temporary. As long as my grandfather is willing, he can be replaced, so please cherish your current status. If you offend someone you shouldn't offend, do you know what the consequences will be?"
The man in white never spoke, but when he spoke, even Xiao Yu felt stressed.
