Chapter 65 Protection fee, do you really think I'm a fool? 【Please vote】
early morning
The glow rises from the sky
Wei Han left the small courtyard feeling refreshed, with three yellowed secret books in his arms, leaving behind only a mess in the courtyard and Tie Lao, who was drinking so much that he was doubting his life.
The old man just couldn’t figure it out!
Wei Han is such a drinker that he gushed down dozens of bottles of wine as if he was risking his life, yet he still walked steadily without any problems.
In the end, he could only watch him take the secret book away. The old man swore in his heart that he would never drink with this monster again!
"The Secret Book of Blue Luan Blood Refining, The Nine-Transformation Heart Sutra of Sunflower Water, The Beginning of Taming Beasts!"
Wei Han looked at the three secret books in his hands, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
The first two volumes of Blood Refining Realm techniques are definitely rare masterpieces in Qingshan County. Tie Lao, this money-grubber, actually gave them to him without confiscating them for only one or two taels of silver. This is a great favor!
And they are just as Tie Lao said!
You need to swallow the essence and blood of a designated type of monster to practice.
Wei Han hasn't yet completed the skin refining, so he's not in a hurry to tinker with it.
On the contrary, "The Beginning of Beast Taming" is very interesting. This is not the method of training hawks and dogs used by ordinary hunters, but a secret of a martial arts sect called Wanshou Villa.
It is said that it is a simplified practice of some kind of immortal secret technique!
Through special communication techniques and the refining of some pills, they have trained tigers, leopards, birds, falcons and other animals since childhood, so that they can communicate with their owners and be controlled by them.
Although Wanshou Villa is not considered to be the most powerful among the martial arts sects in Pingzhou Prefecture, its animal taming skills alone are enough to inspire awe. It is said that many of the carrier pigeons and falcons used for messaging on the market are also tamed and sold by them.
Once it is upgraded to the maximum level, it will be easy to realize Wei Han's idea of training an eagle, and it might not be difficult to train a few monsters.
“Interesting!”
Wei Han still has two empty slots at the moment.
So I hung it up decisively.
【bite! "The Beginner's Guide to Beast Taming" has been successfully included. Currently in normal idle mode, proficiency: entry level 1/20000, increasing by 1 point per hour! 】
"Huh? You need 20,000 proficiency points to get started?"
Wei Han was a little dumbfounded. This was more than the average Skin Refining Realm technique.
Moreover, the increase is only 1 point per hour, and the gain of 100 times is only 2,400 points per day. How long will it take to reach the maximum level?
"It seems that this beast taming technique is not simple!"
Wei Han thought about it and decided to turn on the 100x idle mode.
Now he has tens of thousands of silver notes in his hand, and the 100x mode only makes 50 taels a day. He still doesn't feel bad about the money.
Anyway, he is not in a hurry to use the beast taming technique now. No matter how difficult the technique is, he will eventually fill it up if he keeps using it.
…
Next Steps
Wei Han started another busy day.
He first went to Jufu Restaurant to start preparing medicinal food, presided over the work, and instructed the chefs to practice preparing new dishes.
At three quarters past noon, he returned to the pharmacy and started seeing patients again!
Although he stayed up late and drank all night last night, for a warrior like Wei Han, not sleeping for several days and nights has no effect. He can still be full of energy and has no worries about sudden death.
Noon
Wei Han finally found some free time and went back to Courtyard No. 3.
After a night of hangover, he reeked of alcohol. He washed up and changed into new clothes, and then he felt refreshed.
However, just as he walked out of Tianbao Lane and was about to go back to the pharmacy to see patients, he saw many neighbors gathered together, making a lot of noise, as if something big had happened.
Among the crowd, there were seven or eight burly men in brocade clothes!
They were all tall and had fierce eyes. They had short knives on their waists and a black cloth tied around their left arms. They looked very imposing.
"What is this?" Wei Han was confused.
"They are from the Black Mountain Society." The fat lady at the side reminded in a low voice with disgust on her face: "Doctor Wei, don't provoke them, the Black Mountain bandits have entered the city!"
"hiss!"
Wei Han took a deep breath and his eyebrows couldn't help but twitch.
The last time the young man in white entered the city, he used the Qin family as an agent to win over the hearts of the people and raised funds for food in a high-profile manner, which was already exaggerated enough.
Now the Black Mountain bandits are even more reckless and have marched directly into Qingshan County. It seems that they have reached an agreement with local gangs to directly enclose the land and collect protection fees?
Don’t the government dare to do anything about it?
"Damn it!"
Wei Han secretly snorted, knowing the answer without even thinking about it.
The government and major families were probably already secretly colluding with the rebels. The Black Mountain Bandits suddenly became the Black Mountain Society, which was probably the result of their secret negotiations.
"Dear neighbors, these streets will be taken over by our Black Mountain Association from today on. From now on, our Black Mountain Association will expand vigorously. Anyone who has some ability and is not afraid of death can join us at the East City Headquarters!"
"In addition, every month in Tianbao Lane, every household will pay 2 taels of silver as protection fee, each person will pay 5 cents as head fee, 5 cents as night fragrance fee, and each household will pay 1 tael as garbage fee."
"We are new to your place and although we don't have a big name, we are not to be trifled with. I advise you to cooperate with us. Otherwise, if something goes wrong, it will not look good for everyone. Do you understand?"
A small leader of the Black Mountain Society announced loudly.
Several of his men even openly posted a promotional notice. Their arrogance caused the neighbors to look at them in disbelief.
"Sir, are you crazy? There is no way to collect protection money like this. We don't do business or set up stalls. We have already paid rent for our residence. Why do you still charge protection money?"
"That's right. Our garbage is cleaned up by the government. Why should we pay protection money?"
"This is going to drive us to death. How can we ordinary people get the money to pay such high taxes?"
"You are not the government, so why do you post notices and collect money? Don't the government care about our lives?"
The neighbors were filled with righteous indignation and started to criticize the incident.
The burly men of the Black Mountain Society looked gloomy and glanced over with cold eyes. The little leader threatened in a cold voice, "Why? You guys think that our Black Mountain Society's name is not loud enough and you don't want to give us face, right?"
"Sir, please calm down! We really don't have that much money. A family of seven or eight needs several taels of silver a month. Where can we find it?"
"Yes, we are struggling to make ends meet. Where can we find so much money?"
"Gentlemen of the Black Mountain Society, please be kind. This is Doctor Wei from Chen's Pharmacy. He also lives on this street!"
"Doctor Wei, please say something. Tell them that we really don't have that much money!"
The neighbors pleaded anxiously.
Many people saw Wei Han and were ready to push him out for negotiations.
Upon hearing the words "Chen's Pharmacy", the Black Mountain Gang's small leader's expression became serious, but before he could say anything, Wei Han had already thrown a few taels of silver over.
"The Black Mountain Society is very powerful, and I am just a weak doctor. I dare not offend or hinder them. Please forgive me!"
Wei Han bowed apologetically and turned away.
Do you want him to be a shield and confront Montenegro?
Are you kidding me? Do you really think he is a fool? Do we know each other well?
"Doctor Wei, please don't leave!"
"Oh! You better hand it over. Even Doctor Wei couldn't bear the pressure. Who among you dares not hand it over?"
"Damn, this bastard! I thought he could have some face by relying on Chen's Pharmacy, what a coward!"
"These beasts in the Black Mountain Society are trying to force us to death!"
The neighbors cursed in low voices with gnashing teeth.
Amidst waves of sighs and groans, one finally had no choice but to pay the money.
At this time, the scene in Tianbao Lane was being played out all over the city.
Before the rebels arrived, the Black Mountain bandits had already raised their sickles for harvesting. After harvesting the wealthy families in the city, they could not wait to harvest the ordinary people.
