“I guessed it. However, the mayor compromised. It should be because Zhang Xiaotian is stronger than us.” Tang Wen said.
“I know, right? I’ve only just entered the early stage of the mortal realm, while Zhang Xiaotian is a master of the great circle of the mortal realm. Furthermore, there are a large number of experts in the xuanxi city who can crush our Xuanwu city. ” Xi Kongming said.
“Don’t we still have the zone leader?” Tang Wen asked.
“You have a domain lord, but I don ‘t?
I’ve reported this to the governor, and he has ordered us to settle this on our own.
Moreover, the order stated that no war was allowed. Otherwise, he’ll kill us first. ” Xi Kongming said with an embarrassed look.
“How much do they want?” Tang Wen asked.

“There’s quite a number of them. ” Zhou Quan stuttered.
“How much do you want?” Tang Wen asked.
“This is the list, you can take a look.” Zhou Quan took out the list and blew it over. Tang Wen took it and glanced at it. His face turned black.”This is robbery!”
“I know this is a robbery, but what can I do?” Xi Kongming said.
“But the amount they want is too much. For example, you see, 30 large-scale air fans, 5000 small-scale air fans, 20000 bathrooms, 200000 electric lights … All of these, even if I were to pay 10%, I’d have to pay so much that I’d have to take off my pants.” Tang Wen said.
“You’ve pasted too little, but our city Lord’s mansion has really pasted too much. ” Xiangyun said angrily.
“City Lord, we can’t continue like this.” Tang Wen said.
“What else can we do? They have big fists, we can’t afford to offend them. ” Xi Kongming said.
“If we give it to them, they’ll come to us today, tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow. We won’t be able to afford it even if we go bankrupt, city Lord.” Tang Wen said.
“Of course we know that, but what can we do? let’s deal with the xuanxi region first. Otherwise, once the Western mystic region is attacked, the entire Black Tortoise region will be gone. ” Xi Kongming said.
“Is our Black Tortoise region so weak?” Tang Wen asked.
“Elder Tang, you may not know this, but our Xuanwu region’s territory is less than 30% of the Xuanwu West region ‘s.
In terms of location and spiritual energy, the xuanxi region is better than us.
That’s why the number of experts in their region is several times more than ours. There’s one thing you might not know, but our Black Tortoise region has to offer a batch of our special products to the Black Tortoise region every year.
In truth, it’s not just us. It’s the same for the xuanling and xuanyang regions.
If we follow the ancient saying written in novels, our Black Tortoise region is equivalent to a vassal state of a big country.
The mysterious Western Region is equivalent to a large country, and we’re just a small vassal country.
How could a vassal state fight against its own vassal state? this is simply impossible. ” Xixi Heluo, the Vice City Lord, said.
“Sigh … Who asked us to be so weak? Taking mortal realm Warriors as an example, our Black Tortoise region has a few, but the Black Tortoise region has at least thirty to forty.
Spiritual perception realm cultivators can be considered experts in our Black Tortoise region, but there are too many of them in the Western Region, at least a few thousand.
How do we fight this battle? it’s like throwing an egg at a rock. ” Xiangyun sighed.
A weak country had no diplomatic ties …
“City Lord, it seems like there’s no way to resist it.” Tang Wen said.
“If we can, why don’t we? Even I want to die with them. But what could he do? You can see your strength. ” Xi Kongming’s brows raised. His murderous aura was mixed with sadness, helplessness, and unwillingness.
“City Lord, can you calculate how much silver I need to pay for this list?” Tang Wen asked.
“We’ve already calculated that if we convert all the spirit stones and gold you’ve bought into silver, the city Lord’s mansion will have to pay 100 billion taels.
Our city lord’s estate’s annual tax revenue is only about five to six hundred billion.
After losing 100 billion, he didn’t know how he would live this year.
At that time, he would probably not even be able to give out the rewards for the servants, handymen, and the various Hall Masters.
For example, elder Tang, your remuneration will be halved, so you should be mentally prepared in advance. ” Zhou Quan said.
“It’s better for elder Tang to earn money, but we’re in a miserable state. At that time, the whole family will be out of food. ” Wan Fuyuan sneered.
“Just as housekeeper Zhou said, I’ll have to pay another 10% after deducting the profits. That’s close to 50 billion. I’ll be bankrupt if I do that.” Tang Wen said with a long face.
“It’s not that serious. Who doesn’t know that you’ve earned a lot of money recently, elder Tang? you’re just paying 50 billion, but I think it’s just a waste of time. You can still earn it back in the future. ” Wan Fuyuan said.
“First elder spoke so easily, you can just come.” Tang Wen said sarcastically.
“Kid, don’t mess with me!” Wan Fuyuan suddenly slammed the table and stared at Tang Wen with a fierce look.
“What, first elder, are you going to hit me?” Tang Wen sneered.
“I’m hitting you!” Wan Fuyuan was infuriated. He had long been dissatisfied with Tang Wen, and he finally exploded at this moment. A terrifying green light shot out like a dragon toward Tang Wen.
Bang!
Tang Wen hurriedly greeted him with his fists. However, Wan Fuyuan was an expert with perfect divine sense. Tang Wen had just entered the intermediate stage, so he was naturally not his match.
Shua shua shua …
Tang Wen retreated seven or eight steps. In the end, he couldn’t hold it in and spat out a large mouthful of blood.
However, even so, everyone in the hall was shocked.
That was because, in their hearts, Wan Fuyuan’s punch with 50% of his strength was nothing.
Tang Wen definitely wouldn’t die, but he would definitely be sent flying. Who would have thought that this kid would only take a few steps back?
