The city gates were filled with people coming and going.

Although the Kaiyuan City was the smallest city in the Qi Empire, it had a resident population of no less than one hundred thousand. Adding this, there were probably one hundred and twenty thousand people in the business world.

"Halt!"

Su Qin was stopped by the guards at the city gate.

"Are you from outside the city? "You'll have to pay a silver fee of one silver to enter the city."

After Su Qin had lived in the Kaiyuan City for sixteen years, this was the first time he heard that one had to pay taxes, and it was even so much money.

Su Qin said unhappily: "Official, my home is in the Kaiyuan City, and I have not entered and left the city for a long time, I have never heard of someone paying after entering the city, do you think this young master is the hero?"

Upon hearing that he was not willing to pay, the city guard immediately picked up his spear to blast Su Qin away.

"Scram, this rule is issued by the new City Lord. If you have the ability, go and find the City Lord to argue."

One court member and one court official, Kaiyuan City had changed to a new city lord, and one tael of silver was nothing to Su Qin, there was no need to argue over one tael of silver.

Just when Su Qin was about to let him take the money without getting angry, he saw a scene that made him extremely angry. Other people would only need ten gold coins to enter the city, but the city guards told him to charge a silver coin to enter.

One tael of silver is worth 1,000 gold,

A normal family of three, a month's expenditure between 500 and 800 words;

"Wait!"

"I want you to give me an explanation. Why is it that other people only need ten gold coins to enter the city, while I want a tael of silver. I think you are maliciously blackmailing me."

The soldier looked embarrassed from the beginning and said guiltily, "You said that you are the eldest young master, but can you compare yourself to those village men? If you think the city tax is too expensive, then don't go into the city! " This person was also an old cunning old fox. He was sure that Su Qin would obediently offer the silver.

Su Qin was completely furious.

"Hmph. I'll give you convenience. You really treat it as whatever you want. I do want to see who dares to stop me." Su Qin was prepared to barge in, the Su Family's position in the Kaiyuan City was high, even if the new City Lord were to set a tax on entering the city, if he really wanted to apply for the Su Family's name, these bunch of retards would not dare to do anything to him.

"You dare!"

As long as Su Qin dared to take a step forward, he would not hesitate to stab into Su Qin's heart.

He drew his sword and the situation went out of control, attracting the attention of the general on duty today.

"What are you guys doing? Rebellion won't work! There are a lot of people waiting to enter the city! Wang Xiaodong, tell your father what happened!" Zhang Xian was a hundred man general. He was currently in the pavilion, and was being woken up by his subordinates.

"General Zhang, someone disregarded the new rule of the mayor and did not pay any taxes. This subordinate tried to persuade him, but was unable to find any results, so he still had to force his way in. Since you have come at the right time, this kind of person who disregards the new rule should be arrested and sent to the prison.

Zhang didn't say anything, but he didn't object either. Wang Xiaosi's words were standard, without a single flaw. In the past, those who didn't pay the city tax were all thrown into prison to get their families to pay for bail.

"Well, as you say."

"So Young Master Su is you. I already said that whoever dares to ignore the rules of the new City Lord, the First Young Master of the Su Clan entering and leaving the city, who would dare to ask for money?"

Wang Er, you blind bastard, this is the first young master of the Su Family. You dared to make him pay the tax, I think you must be tired of living, quickly apologize to Young Master Su. If Young Master Su doesn't forgive you, you might as well run into a wall and die!

Wang Xiao Er really did not know Su Qin's identity. He was a personal soldier of the new city lord, otherwise he would not need to be in charge of this dirty errand.

The Su Family's position in the Kaiyuan City was high, and Wang Xiaodong was only the personal soldier of the new city lord. Even if he offended the young master of the Su Family, the city lord would not protect him.

"Pa Pa Pa!" Wang Xiaoshang slapped his face three times as he said, "This little one has eyes but did not recognize Mount Tai. Since I offended the young master of the Su Clan, please treat me like a piece of sh * t!"

The contrast between their expressions made Su Qin feel disgusted.

As a modern person's soul, Su Qin never relied on power to bully others, he had always been well-behaved, so everyone knew that there was a young master trash in the Kaiyuan City, and not a bully.

If I wasn't the first young master of the Su family, and if I was just an ordinary rich young master, then wouldn't I be at your mercy and not be able to defend myself? When I went out, I didn't hear about the tax if I entered the city, and if your words were better, then we would all be safe.

"Take off one of his arms and break his dog legs, and see if he still dares to use his power in the future."

"Ahhh!"

When his gaze met with Zhang Xian's, he looked away and did not pay any attention to Wang Xiaosi. As long as he was not a fool, he would make the right decision to offend the young master of the Su Family for a soldier.

"No, I have a huge secret about the Su Clan. In exchange for Young Master Su's life that is so generous." Wang Xiaodong thought back to five days ago, when he was at the City Lord's side. The City Lord had said something when he was drunk, he was originally going to rot inside his stomach and bring it into a coffin, but he had no choice but to betray the City Lord for the sake of his own life.

"If you're not angry, I'll say it a second time."

Su Qin didn't believe what Wang Xiaosi said at all. This kind of person didn't dare to speak nonsense in order to live.

"It concerns the life and death of the Su Clan. If Young Master Su doesn't listen, you will regret it for the rest of your life. If, if Young Master Su still wants to break my legs after I've heard it, I'll admit it."

Su Qin did not dare to ignore it, it concerns the Su Family's life and death, could it be that something really happened to the Su Family when I was not here?

Wang Xiao Er did not dare say it out in front of the crowd, he brought Su Qin to the teahouse in the city and asked for a private room, saying what he heard with his own ears five days ago as if he was pouring beans.

You said that the new city lord wanted to join hands with the Zhang family to eradicate my Su Family, but how could that be possible? You even said these kinds of lies, and from what I see, you don't know the relationship between Su and Zhang Family, my father and Uncle Zhang have once lived together, and the Zhang family will join hands with the city lord to deal with the Su Family. Su Qin didn't believe it at all.

The Su and Zhang Families had even joined hands to fight against the previous City Lord, resulting in the City Lord's Mansion being just a decoration in the Kaiyuan City.

"Young Master Su, I am speaking the truth. The new City Lord heard that your sister is a first class Spirit body, so he went to ask for marriage with the Su Family, but was rejected by Patriarch Su. The City Lord felt the desire to join Zhang family to deal with the Su Family."

"I heard that the City Lord gave the Zhang family a Spirit master stage Barrier Breaking Pellet as a reward. After the matter is settled, the entire Su Family's business will be taken over by the Zhang family. The City Lord only needs your sister;"

"The new mayor wants to marry my sister."

Su Qin's sister was only eleven or twelve years old. Although there were many married couples at the age of twelve, he would definitely not allow his sister to get married at such a young age.

"Good, very good. New city lord, if you are safe and sound, then we will have nothing to do. If you dare to touch my sister, I will chop you into eighteen pieces, destroy your entire family, and tear down your city lord's mansion."

Su Qin said after venting his anger, "You can scram now. I have to remind you, if you dare to divulge what I've said to you today, I will hunt you down no matter where you go."

He had to quickly return and tell his father about this matter. The City Lord Palace and the Zhang family conspiring against the Su Family was not a small matter.
