"Hum! Is there less tax in this country? "
Bath''s face looked like a hero who was about to die——
"There is personal income tax when working, and there is a guild to pay tax when holding a guild. Housing tax, death and inheritance tax, this tax, that tax, all kinds of tax burden add up is not a small number! With so much money to take, why collect taxes on things that should have been sold to others? This is exactly the royal family''s wealth collection tool! If I say, these taxes should not have been collected! "
Now, cocoa began to regret that he was standing here, not his own president.
At the same time, she also more deeply understood why her president could win so many games so easily, and why she was willing to join the guild of mermaid song at the beginning.
It was also from this moment that the little girl began to deeply regret that she spent most of the past two years learning magic with Napa, the vice president, and often just listened to the knowledge of economics.
If she could understand why the country needed to charge tariffs, would she still be defeated now?
"Always... All in all!"
Cocoa''s little face can''t help blushing! She tried her best to stretch out the iron staff in her hand and waved it to bath in front of her——
"I advise you to be obedient and follow our president''s orders! Our president is not such a murderer, so if you are willing to be obedient, our president may not only not kill you, but also be willing to let you join our mermaid song... "
At this point, cocoa suddenly realized that she had said something wrong.
Why?
Because when negotiating, the most taboo is to confess what you want to achieve most.
And the little girl really confided her ultimate goal because she was in a hurry. It is conceivable that after hearing the news, bath''s face in front of him showed a strange expression.
"Do you want me... To join your guild?"
Bath''s face was full of doubts.
"Ah! no That... Can be regarded as! "
Cocoa quickly put on an indifferent expression, pouted and hummed——
"If you like, it''s nothing to join our guild! But the premise is to be obedient! In addition... If you join our mermaid song... "
The little girl turned her eyes and glanced at the lady almond cake next to her. She immediately had an idea in her heart: "if you join, the affairs of our guild members are naturally our guild''s own affairs. Maybe our president will help you find your son! Looking for it with the power of our guild is naturally more efficient than looking for it blindly by the two of you! "
When cocoa said this, the lady next to the almond cake was obviously excited! But as soon as she wanted to say something, she immediately received a very severe look from bath, and she couldn''t help shrinking back again when she just reached her mouth.
"Oh, so this is your condition?"
Bath''s head tilted back and leaned flat against the post, laughing——
"Think about it carefully. Although your guild has a powerful vampire and a terrible necromancer like you, in fact, your guild does not have a strong magic defense. Uh huh, so you urgently need a Paladin to join... So, you like me? Hehe, it''s interesting. It''s really interesting. "
Cocoa couldn''t help licking her lips, cheered her up again, highlighted her strong appearance, and said, "that''s right! So, what''s your answer? "
Bath lowered his head and glanced at the little girl in front of him. After his eyes rolled for several times, the corners of his mouth showed a smile involuntarily and said slowly, "today is too late. Please let me think again. I want to think more time. "
Although cocoa is only 14 years old, she has been very clear that the person in front of her is not considering at all, but beginning to bargain.
So... Obviously, the practice of exposing her old background in advance has put the girl into a passive position.
There''s no way. Now cocoa has to keep filling up his fat face and proudly say, "well, if you want to think, I''ll give you time to think! I''ll ask you again tomorrow. I hope you can give me a satisfactory answer then. Otherwise, although our president doesn''t like killing people, but there is no way, I can''t guarantee that our president will not make up his mind! That''s it! "
After saying these words, cocoa turned her eyes to the lady almond cake next to her again, as if she was making a final effort: "do you really don''t have to go to the bathroom?"
Mrs. almond cake still shook her head.
"Well, in that case, tie yourself with a rope again, and then I''ll let my dead soldiers tie your hand to the post. Then I''ll let my dead soldiers watch you all night. In this case, I can tie you loosely, and you can relax. Just, please don''t betray my trust. "
Say and do.
After tying the almond cake lady with Xiaobai, cocoa left the cellar door and went back to his room as if he had escaped.
After this duel, the Necromancer''s thoughts are probably only about his own trouble. He also hopes to disclose his background in advance, and try not to let the president''s brother know
But on the other side, in the cellar.
As the candle slowly went out, Mrs. almond cake also sat on the ground, leaned against the column, silently closed her eyes and said, "husband, I think... If we really join the mermaid song and can survive, we may..."
"Oh, can you live by joining the mermaid song? What do you think, stupid woman? "
In the dark, bath''s eyes looked very sad——
"Joining a guild requires formal registration. If our online knows that we have not only lost Du Lengjia, but also joined an inexplicable guild, what do you think will happen to us next? "
Mrs. almond cake looked very worried, but it was true that she could not refute her husband now.
"But... Husband..."
"Don''t worry, don''t they want me to join them? I already have a little idea. As long as the time is right, I will make good use of this method to escape. "

Early in the morning, after finishing his clothes a little, the first thing he did when he walked out of the door was to go to the cream room.
Knocked on the door, there was no sound inside. Arrow tried to push the door... The door was not locked.
When the door opened, the first thing I saw was sitting in front of the window and watching the cream of the sun shining on the street outside.
The assassin''s left hand was resting on the window edge. In the sunshine, the defect of the lost ring finger was highlighted.
After hearing arrow''s opening the door, cream didn''t turn his head immediately. He continued to look at the outside world as if he were dull. The assassin didn''t respond even after arrow gave a soft cry.
Turning around, I saw that the natural double blades were now sliding at the foot of the bed, which was obviously thrown down directly.
Ello breathed out a little, walked forward, picked up the two wooden weapons and looked at them again and again.
The wood is still the same as before. Even the little flower on the handle of the knife is still blooming naturally. Even the petals haven''t fallen.
After putting the two weapons on the table, ello thought about it and said, "I didn''t tell the members about yesterday. They just think you want to forcibly remove the dark forces in your body, hold the double blades of nature, and finally pass out in pain. "
Cream didn''t look back, but his eyes were still staring at the distance.
Arrow shrugged and continued, "but then we can cure you. It won''t be long before you can return to the peak of combat effectiveness! Because, everyone robbed a smuggling channel for you and robbed a lot of Du Lengjia for you! "
Seeing that the assassin still had no reaction, arrow frowned slightly and continued, "this is everyone''s intention! Of course, I also know that there are some terrible things about the efficacy of this thing. But as long as we are careful, we believe we can suppress your pain. Now I just need a little time to test which series of drugs these duranga belong to. So be patient and wait a minute. "
Seeing that the cream had no reaction from beginning to end, ello could only sigh, pretended that there was nothing, walked out of the door, left a word "come down for breakfast early" and closed the door.
After the door closed, cream''s eyes finally seemed to have a little reaction. He glanced in the direction of the door, then looked far away and looked at the sleeping mountains in the distance. His eyes also showed some different light
