I Slay Demons in the Demon City/
Chapter 249: 50-50 Split
Liu Hai's move shocked dozens of office workers in the huge clubhouse. He showed his hand just now..
This is a very powerful hand, branding four words on Hu Han3 's forehead..
Those four characters seemed to be branded with a soldering iron, but Hu Hanshan didn't feel any pain, just felt very ugly..
So he quickly stopped Liu Hai:
"Immortal Liu, wait a minute! You branded four words on my forehead. How do you expect me to go out and meet people?
I'm also a dignified sect leader. If you ask me to go out and meet people like this, won't that kill me?"
Liu Hai smiled and said:
"I'm only responsible for carving on your face. As for how to clean it and how to remove these four words, only my master can do it..
You know what to do, right?
Alright, I still have something to do. I still have so many people to inform. Hurry up and go to the meeting!"
After saying that, Liu Hai turned 1 circle and disappeared in place..
"Wow, he's indeed a god-like existence!
Ma Ji's disciple is already so powerful, so I wonder how powerful Ma Ji and Immortal Master Ma are!"
" Don't you know that Ma Ji is a Jindan big shot? A Jindan big shot's brain is equivalent to the cultivation of the Nascent Soul Stage. How can we mortals compete with him?"
Ma Ji is an immortal cultivator, how can he interfere with the affairs of our mortal world?
Isn't there a rule that says that people from the cultivation world can't disturb our lives in the mortal world? Isn't he breaking the rules by doing so?"
"Foul? Is there any rules in this world?
Don't we also have Immortal Cultivators in our guild? This Nan Batian is just an Immortal Cultivator, but his cultivation isn't strong enough. What kind of state is he in now…
Do you see people?"
"I don't know where he went, but he still has the nerve to be here?
He should have been messed up here today. Now that he has become the laughing stock of the whole city, I don't know which corner he hid in and cried!"
Hu Han 3 stood there for 5 minutes before he recovered..
He suddenly shouted:
" Accountant Liu! Come here quickly!"
Accountant Liu is an old accountant. He walks with a limp. He can't go any faster..
He came over panting and limping, looking anxious.
"If you have any orders, tell us quickly! We have to hurry to the meeting. It's already 8:30..
”
Hu Han 3 calmly said:
"There's no hurry, there's no hurry. We have to discuss these matters from a long-term perspective!
If we go to see the new magistrate, we will see Ma Ji and Ma Xianshi. Are we going empty-handed like this?"
"Oh, Lord Sect Leader, you want to prepare a gift, right?
That's easy to handle. By the way, how much do you want to prepare for the gift? I'll do it right away.
”
"How much is the gift? You think too simply!
You think Lord Cao invited us to a meeting because he invited me to tea?
How can it be that simple?
Accountant Liu, hurry up and calculate the taxes that we should have paid to the Magistrate's Office over the past few years!"
Accountant Liu quickly said:
"Oh, I see. You want to make up for this tax, don't you?
As the saying goes, a new official will fire three times when he takes office. Perhaps Lord Cao will attack us!"
"That's right. You're finally enlightened now, aren't you?
We have to get this gift ready first. We've made enough money anyway. It's only right to give some tax money..
In the past, that Song Jiang, that Magistrate Song, he was too bad. We didn't take him seriously. But now, this Lord Cao is different. He has Immortal Master Ma backing him up!
For the sake of Master Ma, we should at least make up for the tax for the past three years before we can talk..
Otherwise, look at me. Do I have to go out and meet people with these four words every day?"
"Oh, okay, okay!
Got it, got it, I'll get the cash right away.
It may take two big boxes!"Accountant Liu hurried to prepare cash..
Hu Han3 took a deep breath. He felt that this matter was very important. Meetings were not that simple..
He's got some friends who are gang leaders. We have to say hello..
Otherwise, if they don't follow the rules, I'm afraid they will suffer a great loss. As the saying goes, their lips are cold and their teeth are dead. They suffer, and they are also unlucky. We are all grasshoppers on the same rope..
Liu Hai didn't inform the other more than 200 gang leaders after he walked out. How could he have time to inform them?
Now there is still half an hour left. If he walks there on 11, then I don't know how long he will take to go there..
Liu Hai was betting that Hu Hanshan was going to a meeting and understood what he meant.
This matter will spread out very quickly, let everyone in the city know that the new magistrate will ask them for a meeting when he comes to power, and then find Hu Han, the leader of the Salt Gang, first..
:.
: Moreover, he gave Hu Han3 a show of strength and tattooed four words on his forehead!
If the other gang leaders knew, who would dare not attend the meeting?
Otherwise, those four words will become a lifelong shame for them, and they will never be able to get rid of them..
Sure enough, by 9:00 a.m., all 208 gang leaders in the city had arrived, and none of them had fallen..
Hu Han3 wrapped a piece of gauze around his forehead, and then put on a hat. This kind of hat can block the four words on his forehead, barely covering his ugliness..
Cao Cao presided over the meeting..
It was inconvenient for Ma Ji to appear on this occasion. After all, he was a person from the cultivation world. It was against the rules to meddle in these secular affairs..
However, things happen for a reason. Ma Ji can't do it without doing so. Sometimes he needs to do things without following the rules.
Unexpectedly, all 208 leaders of this meeting prepared gifts. The gifts were all brought in boxes..
The boxes are full of hundreds of dollars, all of which are taxes they should have paid for the past three years..
But they didn't hand it in, and now they're all made up!
Song Jiang saw this scene and was filled with emotion:
"People are not the same as people, flowers are not the same as bonuses..
I've been here for 3 years, but I haven't gotten anything. And I'm still a man with my tail between my legs.
None of these gang leaders dared to offend them. They lived a miserable life..
Seeing Lord Cao take office, he immediately made up all the taxes he owed me. He earned a lot of money. The taxes for these three years should be mine!
alas.
It's better to learn from Lord Cao!
He eats meat every day. I can drink soup too!"
Cao Cao said loudly:
"I'm glad you're all here. It shows that you all have a sense of time and are well-behaved people..
As an official, I don't have so many rules. There's only 1:00. That means there's meat. Everyone eats together..
There's soup, everyone..
Don't be so selfish when the time comes. Don't ignore our government revenue..
As you know, the government does not allocate funds. We have to solve all our financial problems ourselves..
We're all here to make a living. Officials have official roads and businessmen have business roads..
Officials and businessmen should cooperate with each other.
That's why after I came here, I didn't do anything like three fires for a new official.
I just hope you guys stick to the old routine..
Keep doing what you did..
”
The leaders listened and calmed down..
Cao Cao continued:
"But if you make a profit, you just have to hand it over to the shopping authorities..
in that case, hello to you, hello to me, hello to everyone..
There's a lot of industries that, you know, were run by the government..
If we take all these industries back, you'll get nothing.
So 55 cents, tax-free, what do you think?"
" Ah!55 points, that's too much!"
"Our gang is a butcher industry. Since ancient times, this industry has been privately owned. It has nothing to do with your government, right?
You can collect some taxes, yes.
It's not 55 cents! Then what else are we eating?"
" Yes, yes, Sect Leader Zhang is right!55 points is too much!"
Many leaders stood up to protest..
Zhao Zilong, who was standing behind Cao Cao, coughed once, and the gang leaders immediately quieted down..
Cao Cao looked around the hall, his eyes like eagles, and then said loudly:
"Of course, most gangs are private businesses. We only collect taxes..
The 55 cents I'm talking about now refer to industries that we used to run by the government, such as banking, such as hydropower, salt industry, such as highway communications, etc..
These industries are very profitable..
Now I'm setting 55 cents, which is a compliment..
”
The gang leaders didn't say anything. They all looked at Hu Hanshan..
Hu Han 3 is the leader of the most powerful gang in the city.
If Hu Han3 agrees, everyone will definitely agree. If he disagrees, everyone will oppose it..
