Chief don't slap in the face

Chapter 240
After offending Xia Xiang, Xia Ye has changed his mind, and will not let Xia Lingyue stay in the tribe anymore. Buying this former residence is just to satisfy his sister's wish for many years.

After resting for a day, Xia Ye went to the refugee area the next day.

The refugee area is one mile away from the Xia clan. As the name suggests, it is a living area where refugees of all ethnic groups gather.

Among these people, some are unwilling to join the Xia Clan, and some of them are too poor to be accepted by the Xia Clan. In order to survive, they can only settle down here.

People who are not from the tribe, the patriarch naturally does not allow the refugees to live in the inner city out of safety considerations.

"It stinks!"

As soon as he stepped into the refugee area, Song Guo pinched his nose, an indescribable stench permeated the air, and all kinds of dirty and disorderly things caught the eye.

Here are all shacks built randomly with thatch and branches. There is no plan at all, not to mention excrement and urine. People who are a little conscious know to go outside the refugee area to solve it. Those who are not conscious will defecate anywhere.

The people who live here are quite poor in energy and spirit, and they are all disheveled.

"There are still taxes in this place?"

Ghost Lord was stunned, he saw a team of tax collectors asking for money from door to door.

"some!"

Xia Ye's face was embarrassed, and Xia's eating was too ugly.

The refugees also have no choice, the wild is too dangerous, and all kinds of ferocious beasts are rampant. Only by attaching themselves to the city wall can they be safe, and not everyone can hunt, like those women and children who died of men, they can only be found when they enter the city. A job for a living.

"My son has been sick for a few days recently, and all the money has been spent on medicine. Please, give me a few days of grace?"

A woman knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the tax collector.

"I've seen a lot of people like you. In a few days, I'll still use this same rhetoric!"

The tax officer kicked the woman away, impatiently, and shouted at his subordinates: "Drive her away, tear down the shack!"

This is to make an example to the monkeys, otherwise there will be more tax arrears in the future.

The servants acted very roughly. After entering the shack and throwing out the sick and half-dead child, they pushed down the shack.

If it weren't for the fear of causing a fire, it would be burned down.

The refugees living nearby all watched this scene with numb expressions.

"Too cold-blooded!"

Song Guo complained, rushed over, took out a knife and coin and threw it at the tax official: "Is this enough?"

"Where did you come from, you son of a bitch?"

Seeing a little girl in bear skin humiliating himself, the tax officer was annoyed, and just about to lose his temper, he saw Xia Ye and his party walking over.

"Humph!"

The tax officer was in contact with the low-level people, and his eyesight was not bad. When he saw a person like Xia Ye, he couldn't afford to provoke him, so he picked up the knife and coin, and prepared to leave.

"and many more!"

Xia Ye called out.

"What do you want to do?"

The tax officer became nervous. Could it be that he wanted the money back?

"What talent is there here?"

Xia Ye snapped his fingers, Master Gui understood, took out a vitality stone, and threw it over.

"My ancestors, I met a local tyrant!"

The tax officer immediately put on a smile: "You are asking the right person, I am most familiar with the situation in the refugee area."

Because of the reward, the tax officer worked extra hard.

"The man in this family is Liu Tong, he can forge, and he is currently working in Hagar's weapon shop!"

The tax officer introduced, and then shouted: "Liu Tong, don't sleep, come out quickly, the big man is here."

Soon, a man yawned and walked out naked.

"Are you looking for me to build a weapon? You pay for the materials, and prepare another hundred knives!"

Liu Tong rubbed the corners of his eyes, and wiped the gum on his shorts on his hands.

"How about going to my tribe to be a swordsmith, one thousand dollars a month?"

Xia Ye offered a price.

"what?"

Liu Tong and the tax officer were surprised at the same time.

"Your tribe?"

The tax officer was surprised by Xia Ye's identity. Whose family is this child? Does he already have his own tribe?

"One thousand dollars?"

Liu Tong's eyes lit up, but then he frowned again, looking at Xia Ye suspiciously: "You can make the decision?"

"Nonsense, my elder brother is the great chief, so he can be the master!"

Song Guo pouted.

"Great Chief?"

Liu Tong's expression changed: "Your tribe is not in the wasteland, is it?"

"Correct!"

Xia Ye didn't hide anything.

"Don't go!"

Liu Tong refused cleanly, going to the wasteland, wouldn't that be death?
"I will guarantee your personal safety!"

Xia Ye promises.

"This one……"

Liu Tong rolled his eyes: "Unless you give me three thousand dollars a month!"

"You're too big a lion, aren't you?"

Before Xia Ye could speak, the tax officer became anxious: "Even those swordsmiths from Xia Jia's family can't get so much money in a month. Who do you think you are?"

"My craftsmanship is worth so much money!"

Although Liu Tong spoke forcefully, it was actually just a random price, and he didn't even think about going to the wasteland, but through this price, he could increase his worth and reputation, and when he went to the city to find a job in the future, he could justifiably ask his employer to raise his salary.

Some people gathered around to watch the fun, figured out what was going on, and immediately started mocking.

"Liu Tong, you dare to ask for three thousand dollars? It's too shameless!"

"This great chief, don't believe his words. Although this guy has some skills, his character is too bad."

"Be careful of being tricked!"

"roll roll roll!"

Liu Tong cursed and forced Xia Ye: "If you can't get the money, just leave quickly, don't disturb my sleep!"

"If you can prove your craftsmanship, I can give it!"

Xia Ye is not short of money.

Hey!
Hearing this, the onlookers made a noise and looked at Xia Ye in surprise. How could he be a local tyrant at such a young age?
"how to prove?"

Liu Tong sneered: "If you don't believe me, forget it, get out! I'm not a trick artist!"

After finishing speaking, Liu Tong grabbed his belly and prepared to go back to the shack to catch up on sleep.

"This guy wants to use us as a springboard!"

Gui Ye was furious, this Liu Tong had no intention of going to the barren land at all.

"Do you want to take him away?"

Song Guo pinched his finger bones, refugees are not protected by the Xia Clan.

The rapid sound of horseshoes suddenly sounded, and a knight shouted while charging.

"The Taiding Tribe recruits people. Anyone who has a craft will pay one hundred knives a month, and ordinary refugees will pay three knives a month!"

The refugees were excited and ran over to inquire. For them, joining an affiliated tribe was also a good choice.

Such affiliated tribes will not force the refugees to change their surnames. The location is relatively safe, and because of the lack of people, the treatment is considered generous.

"Me! I'll go! Someone offered [-] dollars to poach me just now!"

Liu Tong immediately yelled, with his skills, he was not well-known in Xia City, but he went to the Taiding Tribe, and the competition was small, so he might skyrocket.

"This guy!"

Xiao Siguo was very angry.

"never mind!"

Xia Ye was a little upset, but it wasn't enough to break someone's leg because of such a trivial matter.

Because the Xia Taiding tribe was recruiting people, Xia Ye's recruitment plan fell through. Even though he offered a high price, it was too dangerous to go to the wasteland. When they heard about it, they backed down.

"There is no pioneering spirit at all, no wonder I can only wait here to die!"

Master Gui shook his head, if it were him, he would rather die than fight.

When Xia Ye returned to the slum, he saw many neighbors gathering at home, taking the time to chat with Xia Lingyue and get closer.

"It's good to be moving!"

"Let me just say, Xia Ye is the most promising kid in our slum!"

"Is his current tribe very rich?"

Everyone was chattering, complimenting and inquiring about the news. Everyone was envious of Xia Yehao buying a house for [-] dollars.

You must know that many people here have almost no chance of moving in this life. The one who had the best chance to move out of the slum was Xia Qi's family, but now, Xia Qi is completely cold.

After dinner, Xia Ye told Xia Lingyue her decision.

"Didn't you agree? Why did you suddenly let me go to Chaoge again?"

Summer months are puzzled.

"I just provoked Xia Junrui and Xia Xiang, it's too dangerous for you to stay here."

Xia Ye considered his words.

"Forget it, I'll go with you!"

Seeing her younger brother's tangled appearance, Xia Lingyue chuckled and gave up: "Many refugees and poor people are living in hardships. I want to persuade them to go to Chaoge and increase the population, which is mutually beneficial. If that's the case, forget it."

"They are too timid to go!"

Song Guo counted today's events and was very angry: "That Xia Taiding's subordinate shouted, so many people rushed to sign up!"

"I went to Chaoge, don't despise me for idle food!"

As a sister, Xia Lingyue wants to contribute to Chaoge.

"will not!"

Xia Ye smiled: "We, sister and brother, are of the same heart, and their benefits can cut through gold!"

After convincing Xia Lingyue, Xia Ye no longer has any sense of belonging to Xia City. After buying some goods, he set off early.

Mo Wuheng is also a vigorous and resolute person, and he has already prepared supplies, with a total of ten carriages consigned.

"Finally we can leave here!"

Xia Cheng was no longer visible, but Xia Lingyue was still looking back, with a difficult expression.

"Next time, we will enter this city as conquerors!"

Xia Ye comforted.

"Ok!"

Summer Month Prayer: "Father, You Bless Us!"

The convoy was not moving fast, because Xia Ye led a small team to Taohuayuan and moved everything.

When the two sides reunited again, the three members of the Songguo Girls Group gnawed on a piece of sugar cane each.

"sweet!"

Rem smiled wide-eyed.

"In the future, the Peach Blossom Garden will be filled with sugar cane!"

Song Guo really wants to eat candied fruit.

Xia Ye ordered a rapid march, and at noon five days later, everyone found a convoy in front of them, because there were too many supplies, and the road was crowded.

"I'll let them make way!"

Song Guo volunteered.

Xia Ye was worried and followed.

"Is it the two of you?"

When Xia Xiang saw Xia Ye, his face turned blue with anger, and then he laughed again, there is a way to heaven if you don't go, and there is no way to hell for you to break in.

"Boy, I didn't expect that we will meet again so soon!"

Xia Xiang glanced at the convoy behind, there were not many people, and then looked at his side, there were a total of three hundred soldiers.

"Hmph, steady!"

Xia Xiang looked at Xia Ye jokingly, thinking about how to fix this guy who made him lose face.
