Chapter 496 I Want to Collect Taxes
After thinking for a while, Wang Lang looked up at Zhu Xiyue.
"What you just said does make sense. Let's put it this way. In the future, I will connect all the creation pillars or separate permanent teleportation formations placed in your Ming Empire to the Shanhai Dahuang World in advance. But..."
Zhu Xiyue was very excited after hearing Wang Lang's words. However, after hearing the word "but", her face fell again.
At this time, Wang Lang continued speaking.
"But it is connected. You can only enter the world of Shanhai Dahuang through these teleportation arrays at critical moments. I will block these teleportation arrays at normal times. This is the biggest concession I can make. If you can accept it, then accept it. If you can't accept it, then so be it."
"Accept it. I can accept it."
Zhu Xiyue felt very sad, but she could only accept it at this time.
If you don’t accept it, what can you do?
The teleportation array was created by Wang Lang, and he was the only one who could connect the teleportation array with the teleportation array in the Shanhai Dahuang world. The initiative was in his hands, and he could do whatever he wanted.
"Thank you Brother Lang for your understanding. Thank you Brother Lang for thinking so much about us."
After a slight pause, Zhu Xiyue continued speaking and directly asked about what she was most concerned about at the moment.
"I wonder if Brother Lang has other Creation Pillars in his hands. We can buy them. There are more and more magical beasts in the Ming Empire, and their cultivation strength is getting stronger and stronger. When a large number of magical beasts frantically attack the settlements, those reinforced concrete walls can no longer play a big role. Now we urgently need to rely on the Creation Pillars to build safer settlements."
As she spoke, Zhu Xiyue was full of anticipation.
Without further ado, as long as there are four or five Pillars of Creation, everyone in the Ming Empire can be protected.
"No, after I installed this Creation Pillar, I only have one Creation Pillar left, which is for the Tang Dynasty."
After hearing what Wang Lang said, Zhu Xiyue's face fell again.
In just a short while, her mood has gone through ups and downs several times. Fortunately, she is in good health, if she had a heart attack or something, it would have passed long ago.
Just as Zhu Xiyue was about to speak, Wang Lang's voice rang out again.
"However, I do have three temporary defense formations in my hand. I can give them to you, but the price is not cheap."
"It's okay, it's okay, Brother Lang, I understand. A lot of materials are needed to refine a temporary defense formation. You told me about this. If we only calculate based on those resources and materials, the price is not cheap. Brother Lang, I want all three temporary defense formations."
At this time, Zhu Xiyue's mood improved again.
Since we can't get the Pillar of Creation for the time being, it would be a good idea to set up some temporary defensive formations first.
"Well, after we have installed the Pillar of Creation, we will go to your place to discuss the price. I will also collect the supplies you have prepared."
"Once the Pillar of Creation is installed, I can enter the Ming Empire at any time. Your Highness, please arrange for people to prepare supplies. It's time to settle our accounts."
Every time, the cultivation resources, weapons, protective equipment and various kinds of elixirs that Wang Lang brought to Zhu Xiyue were all extremely valuable.
But the total price of the supplies obtained from Zhu Xiyue each time was not very high.
After all this, Zhu Xiyue had already owed a lot of debts.
"Okay, no problem. When we're done, we'll check the accounts, and I'll arrange for someone to replenish the supplies as soon as possible."
As she spoke, Zhu Xiyue glanced at Wang Lang with a seductive look.
The look in their eyes was self-explanatory; when the two of them checked the accounts, it was definitely more than just checking the accounts.
Zhu Xiyue's eyes were full of seductiveness, but Wang Lang didn't dare to look at her. Qi Manguli was still by his side, so he didn't dare to be too presumptuous.
Wang Lang was afraid that if Zhu Xiyue continued like this, Qi Manguli would find out, so he immediately brought up another topic.
"Once the Pillar of Creation is installed and the Ming Empire and our Great Wilderness of Mountains and Seas are connected, the cultivators in the Ming Empire can enter the Great Wilderness of Mountains and Seas to practice and improve their cultivation strength, go out on adventures to explore and tame exotic beasts, or collect and mine various resources and materials. Ordinary people can enter the Great Wilderness of Mountains and Seas to take refuge, and at the same time, they can better strengthen their bodies and awaken their talents."
"I don't mind the transportation fees, house rental fees, and protection fees. But I can't let you take away the powerful beasts that the monks have subdued or hunted, the mineral materials, plant materials, beast fodder, herbs, and fruits and grains that they have collected and excavated, which are full of vitality."
"After all, all the things I'm talking about are from my Shanhai Dahuang world, which means they all belong to me. Since they belong to me, I definitely won't let you take them away for nothing. I think you should understand this, right?"
"Understand, understand!"
Although she said she understood, Zhu Xiyue was actually complaining in her heart.
You dead man, I said I don’t understand, are you willing?
After a slight pause, Zhu Xiyue spoke directly.
"I can understand this. Brother Lang, do you mean that we still need to pay for these things or provide materials?"
Zhu Xiyue had cursed Wang Lang countless times in her heart. At this moment, she really wanted to reveal her relationship with Wang Lang directly to Qimanguli next to her.
It didn't matter what the status was, she just wanted Qimanguli to give Wang Lang a good beating.
"No, no, no, you misunderstood. Although those things all belong to me, after all, they were brought back by those monks who risked their lives to explore, collect and dig. How could I let them buy them in full?"
"What I mean is that I want to collect taxes! It's like corporate income tax or personal income tax. No matter what the monks who go out on adventures and explorations get, they need to estimate the overall value and then pay taxes in proportion."
"Ah, that's no problem. Brother Lang, what is the ratio?"
As she spoke, a smile appeared on Zhu Xiyue's face again.
At this moment, she felt that Wang Lang in front of her had become much cuter again.
Zhu Xiyue muttered to herself.
Damn man, you still have some conscience. I will reward you well later.
hum...
Suddenly the buzzing sound that had been ringing all day started.
Then, a crack appeared in the air not far to the side. A huge amount of blood, spiritual energy, and demonic energy gushed out of the crack crazily.
A space crack appeared!
