"Cousin, is there something on your mind?" Zhou Zhongmao asked.
Lin Fan smiled, "I'm fine. I'm fine."
Constitution: 18
[Internal Strength: 0]
Mental Cultivation: None
Cultivation Technique: Vengeful Tiger Blade Technique (Basics)
Rage Points: 655.
This was his current situation.
His physique rose to 18.
Since he did not have any internal energy, he probably did not cultivate any mental cultivation method.
To put it bluntly, he was now a brute with brute force.
Currently, if there was something on his mind, it would be Manager Chen.
He was panicking.
His mind was still thinking about that woman from before.
If it was really the Su Family, then it was really big trouble.
At this moment.
They were already on a small path in the farmland.
The heat scorched the earth.
Cracks appeared on the ground.
In the distance.
Many commoners saw Administrator Chen.
But they didn't come over. Instead, they ran into the distance.
"Why do I feel that we're like a plague? Everyone else is afraid when they see us. What's going on?" Lin Fan asked.
His rage points were accumulating, and he would slowly add them when he returned.
Manager Chen had a ferocious look on his face. He felt that these commoners had caused him to lose face in front of the Young Master, so he had to teach them a lesson.
"Don't worry, Young Master. I will immediately let these scums line the streets to welcome you," said Manager Chen.
Lin Fan waved his hand and said unhappily, "What lowly commoner? Don't call me that. It's so vulgar."
Manager Chen looked at Young Master with a weird expression.
She felt that Young Master's words were a little weird.
"Yes, young master is right. I will change." Manager Chen said.
But in his heart, he still felt that these people were scum. If it wasn't for the Lin Family giving them food, these people would be like the refugees outside of You City.
Gou 'zi's good impression of Young Master broke through the limit.
The Young Master was indeed the Young Master. He was different from those flirtatious Young Masters.
As a servant of the Lin family, to put it bluntly, he was half a peasant.
On a small path through the farmland.
In front of him was a village. There were many houses, but they were too old. There were straw huts and mud houses.
The outer walls of the mud huts had many cracks.
He even suspected that if there was a heavy rain, it was very likely that these houses would collapse.
In the village, the civilians all stood there waiting.
Some of them lowered their heads in silence, while others were filled with despair.
"What should I do? What should I do? I can't hand it over."
"Manager Chen is here. If we don't hand it over, we will definitely be scolded and beaten."
When Lin Fan walked into the village, all the sounds disappeared. The entire village was extremely quiet.
Even those naughty children hid in the corner of the wall in fear.
Manager Chen coughed lightly. Then, he took out a soft whip from his waist and slammed it on the ground, leaving a deep mark.
"Is everyone here? This is the Young Master of the Lin Mansion. Hurry up and greet him. "Manager Chen said sternly.
To deal with these lowly commoners, one had to make them afraid.
Only when they knew fear would they work hard.
"Sir Lin."
"Sir Lin."
Their voices were intermittent and uneven, and they were generally very soft.
Patter!
Manager Chen lashed out with his whip and landed on the ground again. His expression was extremely ugly as he said sternly, "Did you not eat? Speak louder. "
"What are you doing? What do you want to do? Keep your whip. If you have something to say, then say it nicely. Who are you trying to scare? "Lin Fan frowned.
An evil landlord.
This little steward had performed incisively and vividly.
Manager Chen, who had a fierce expression towards the commoners, was much more docile in front of Lin Fan. He kept his whip, "Young Master is right."
The villagers in the village all looked at Lin Fan.
This was the Lin Family Young Master; they had never seen him before.
They didn't understand why such a person would come to such a place.
Zhou Zhongmao wasn't interested in what was happening here.
He was just accompanying his cousin.
Other things didn't have much to do with him.
Gou 'zi was a little helpless.
This time he came to collect taxes.
However, with the weather this year, the harvest would be really small. They probably wouldn't even be able to pay the taxes, much less fill their stomachs.
However, he was just a servant.
His words didn't carry much weight, or one could say that he was useless.
Manager Chen felt that Young Master didn't like how evil he was, so he restrained himself and said, "Have you prepared this year's taxes?"
No one spoke.
The villagers exchanged glances with one another and felt really bitter.
Farm taxes?
How would they have extra?
However, if they didn't pay, the consequences weren't something they could bear.
"Eh?" Manager Chen frowned. What was going on? These people didn't want to pay taxes?
Young Master followed him over, and if he didn't do this well, how would Young Master look at him?
"Manager Chen." At that moment, an old man walked out from the crowd.
He was really old, and the wrinkles on his face were not much different from tree bark.
"We will definitely pay taxes, but this year's harvest isn't good, so can we pay less? Or we can owe it." The old man said.
He was the village chief of this place.
He really had no choice with the situation this year.
However, he knew that the reason wasn't important to the Lin Family. As long as they could pay the taxes, everything was fine. However, if they couldn't, the consequences would be catastrophic.
Manager Chen's expression slowly changed.
The way he looked at these people changed.
"Village chief, my Young Master came today and you told me this?" Manager Chen said solemnly and then looked towards Lin Fan, "Young Master, I will solve this matter and won't let the Lin Family suffer any losses."
Lin Fan raised his head and looked at the sky, fanning himself.
"The weather is really hot."
"There are signs of a drought."
Till now, he didn't know how his family collected taxes.
Also, this small support system was really humane.
It didn't bully normal people.
The farmers present were definitely furious, but they didn't get any rage points.
"Gou 'zi, how do you collect the taxes?" Lin Fan asked.
Gou 'zi replied, "Young Master, based on mu, 150 kilograms per mu."
"What?" When Lin Fan heard that, he was stunned like he didn't understand. He asked, "How do you collect it?"
"Young Master, based on mu." Gou 'zi said.
Lin Fan was stunned.
This was even higher than the Qin Dynasty taxes.
This was obviously not giving people a chance to live.
"How much is one mu of land now?" Lin Fan asked.
"Young Master, one mu of land yields around 200 kilograms." Gou 'zi said. This was You City's tax, leaving a little for the farmers and the rest as taxes.
"Scary! Which b * stard came up with this tax? He's just not giving anyone a chance to live!" Lin Fan cursed out.
However, when he said those words.
Not only was Manager Chen shocked.
Even the farmers were dumbfounded.
Gou 'zi hurriedly whispered into Lin Fan's ear, "Young Master, this is the tax that Old Master set."
"Okay, no matter who set it, this farm tax is just insane. Change, we have to change it. As the Lin Family Young Master, I will set the new farm tax."
"From today onwards, there will be no harvest per mu, only 10% of the annual harvest will be collected."
Lin Fan said.
This kind of deranged behavior must be stopped.
As the rich son of a landlord, he had to do something.
"Young Master, you can't." Manager Chen reacted and stopped him.
This was a life threatening matter.
If the Old Master were to find out about this, the entire sky would collapse.
The villagers stood there in a daze.
They opened their eyes and looked at Lin Fan.
What did Young Master Lin say?
Lin Fan didn't bother about Manager Chen. He looked at the sky and the ground before opening his mouth, "This damn weather is terrifyingly hot. It is considered a drought, so this year's farm tax will be exempted."
"Young Master …" Manager Chen wanted to spit out blood.
"Are you the Young Master or am I the Young Master? Are my words useless? I will take responsibility for this. If my father doesn't agree, then tell him to find me. "Lin Fan said.
Riches were found in danger.
When it was time to gain rage points, he couldn't show mercy.
He had to fight head-on.
Do you really think you can hack my only son to death?
Putong!
Just at that moment.
The villagers all knelt down.
The village chief knelt in front of Lin Fan, tears flowed down his face, "Thank you Young Master, thank you Young Master."
He hadn't studied before.
He wouldn't say too many words of gratitude.
But his true feelings were revealed.
There was no falsehood at all.
Lin Fan walked forwards and helped the village chief up. He persuaded, "Village chief, in the future all of you have to farm well. Whether or not I can enjoy life depends on all of you."
Those words sounded a little weird.
But to the villagers, that wasn't the main point.
"Don't worry Young Master, we will farm well and pay the taxes next year."
Lin Fan nodded his head in satisfaction.
"Let's go, let's head back."
Manager Chen looked towards his Young Master in despair.
Something huge was about to happen.
