Douluo: Justice Under Fire

Ning Ke really didn't expect Ning Rongrong's mobilization ability to be so powerful.

In just one day, Ning Rongrong attracted nearly half of the people from nearby villages to the college.

College dean interior.

A middle-aged man looked at Ning Ke sitting on the chair and asked hesitantly: "Do we really get any money if we join the farmers' association?"

After hearing this, Ning Ke immediately understood how Ning Rongrong pulled these people over.

One word: money!

But this is normal, after all, no one has trouble with money.

But it is impossible for Ning Ke to attract people who come for money to join the farmers' association.

"Fellow folks, there are indeed many benefits to joining our farmers' association, but we also have thresholds. You must have the correct political and ideological consciousness to be eligible to join the farmers' association."

"What is political and ideological consciousness?" someone couldn't help but ask.

Ning Ke said: "Does your baby take classes in our college?"

"Both my eldest and second child are here."

"My little Dan'er is here too."

"My baby also goes to school here."

Everyone immediately started talking.

Ning Ke said: "Then you can borrow a book from them and read it, which is their textbook "Politics and Thought"."

Everyone looked at each other, whispered to each other, and talked endlessly.

The condition for joining the farmers' association is actually reading a book?

Soon, someone asked his question on the spot: "But we don't know how to read."

"You can ask your children, or come to the academy to audit. We don't charge tuition for auditing."

After hearing Ning Ke's words, some people suddenly showed expressions of disinterest.

In their hearts, they instinctively think that attending lectures is a troublesome thing!

They would rather work in the fields all day than touch a book once.

There was nothing Ning Ke could do about this situation.

He can only pin his hopes on other parents.

At this moment, a middle-aged woman hurriedly ran in.

Of course she was not looking for Ning Ke. Instead, she immediately walked up to a middle-aged man and said, "Master, it's bad! Officials from the Balak Kingdom have come to collect land rent from us!"

......

At the entrance of the village, a group of officials and soldiers from the Barak Kingdom stepped into this land with great pride.

In front of them was a group of villagers with frightened faces.

"You untouchables, it's been half a year, why haven't you paid the rent?"

The villagers were a little angry at the officials' arrogance.

But most of them dare to be angry but dare not speak out.

But there was another young man among them, who couldn't help but said:

"Are you looking down on people? Why are you rolling your eyes at me, huh!"

The official glanced at the man in surprise, then laughed.

"I just look down on you, so what can you do? A group of untouchables who don't even have soul power, what qualifications do we have to look up to you?"

"You!" The man's eyes were red with excitement.

"What? You still want to fight with me?"

The official sneered and showed off his martial spirit.

His martial spirit is a red dog.

Although the quality is not high, he can still be regarded as a fighting soul master.

Along with the appearance of the martial soul, two soul rings, one white and one yellow, also appeared next to the official.

This official is actually a second-level soul master!

The expressions of the villagers suddenly changed!

Maybe the great soul master is not that powerful, but it is not something that ordinary farmers like them can defeat.

What's more, the other party is an official of the Barak Kingdom.

For a moment, the villagers couldn't help but take a step back.

The official sneered and kicked the young man who had just talked back to him to the ground.

"You untouchable, don't you want to fight with me? Why don't you?"

The young man was furious, but he knew in his heart that he could not take action.

Because the other party is an official and I am a citizen.

And with the strength of the opponent's great soul master, even if he takes action, he may not be able to defeat him... No, he will definitely not be able to defeat him!

At this time, the village chief came out to smooth things over for the young man.

The village chief handed a cloth bag to the official's hand and asked in a low voice: "Sir, this child is ignorant. Please be patient with him."

The official weighed the bag and was obviously quite satisfied.

The village chief took the opportunity to pull the young man away.

Then, the village chief smiled apologetically at the official and said, "Sir, didn't we just pay the ground rent? Why do we have to pay the ground rent again?"

The official snorted and said seriously: "What you paid before was for the province of Fasno. We haven't paid the land rent for the Kingdom of Barak yet!"

The village chief asked tentatively: "Sir, we are farmers in Fasno Province, not farmers in the Kingdom of Barak. Why do we have to pay land rent to the Kingdom of Barak?"

The official sneered, "Why, you don't want to pay?"

"No, no." The village chief sneered quickly: "We are just asking. If we hand over the matter without authorization, if the provincial governor blames it, it will not be easy for us to explain, right?"

"How do you explain it? What does it have to do with me?"

The official sneered again and said: "Our King of Balak Kingdom and the current Emperor Xue Ye are brothers! Our Balak Kingdom is the barrier of the Tiandou Empire and has always been protecting the safety of the Tiandou Empire, but now you refuse After handing over the land rent, are you still patriotic? Do you want to rebel?"

"This..." Upon hearing this, the village chief was choked and speechless.

Not only the village chief, but other villagers also expressed dissatisfaction.

Because no matter what, they shouldn't pay land rent to the Kingdom of Barak.

Seeing that the villagers were still dissatisfied, the official took out a piece of paper from a soldier behind him and said, "We are not here to collect taxes without basis. The land deed in my hand was issued by the Kingdom of Barak, and There is also the seal of Fasno Province. If you don’t hand it over, you are being unpatriotic, you are fighting against the Tiandou Empire, you are fighting against the Balak Kingdom, and you are rebelling!”

This call immediately made the villagers even more angry.

A middle-aged man couldn't help but said: "We are from the Fasno Province. How could you, the Barak Kingdom, have the title deed of our village? This was clearly done by you yourself!"

Hearing this, the official's face turned green and he sneered: "Okay, you are going to rebel one by one, won't you even listen to what the government says?"

In the crowd, a middle-aged man was heartbroken and immediately said: "We really don't have any friendship today!"

"Have you really thought it through?"

The official's tone was cold, and he once again showed his two soul rings, one white and one yellow.

"You don't need to tell us what will happen if you go against the soul master, right?"

"Sir, please calm down!" The village chief sighed and quickly ran to the official again.

He bowed and quietly winked at the other villagers, "Sir, we didn't say we wouldn't pay! It's just that the Governor just collected the tax once, and we really don't have any money. Can you give us some delay?" ?”

The official snorted and said: "Our Balak Kingdom is the gateway to the Tiandou Empire! If you don't pay, we will have no military spending. If the Star Luo Empire comes over, you will be guilty of delaying the war!"

After the official finished speaking, his tone became lighter and he added: "Actually, I still take good care of you. If we were in our Barak Kingdom, you would be jailed for this attitude!"

The officials had reached this point, and the village chief had no choice but to nod and ask, "Sir, how much land rent do you want to charge?"

"One gold soul coin for one acre of land."
