Time flies.
Three years passed in a flash.
During these three years, Lin Yu has been working diligently as a waiter.
With Lin Yu's help, Cyclamen's business is getting better and better.
Manager Gao made a fortune.
It's a pity that he doesn't seem to have much interest in money now.
There is still no news about his daughter.
There are some things that you only know how to cherish once you lose them.
Manager Gao no longer pays Lin Yu's salary.
Instead, he gave Lin Yu 30% of the shares.
...
...
Lin Yu didn't want it.
Manager Gao did not take the money back, but just left it in the store, telling Lin Yu that he could take the money whenever he wanted.
The reason why Lin Yu didn't want it was very simple, because he ate too much.
In three years, Lin Yu's indestructible golden body was upgraded by two levels.
If this were to happen somewhere else, it would be impossible to improve so much.
Now, Lin Yu's indestructible golden body has reached level ten!
Lin Yu was completely unable to detect how strong his own defense capabilities were.
Lin Yu guessed in his heart that with this kind of defensive ability, even those orthodox cultivators might not be able to break through his defense!
Of course, the immortal cultivators that Lin Yu was talking about were those who had just started.
The two fighting figures that I saw after I just traveled to this world are definitely not among them.
Even thinking back on it now, that kind of strength was truly terrifying.
However, Lin Yu had only seen that kind of battle between powerful men once, and never saw it again.
Obviously, there are not many immortal cultivators in this world.
In these three years, Lin Yu gained three more attribute points.
Or are they all added to metaphysics?
Lin Yu's metaphysical attribute has reached 8 points.
In another two years, it will be able to reach 10 points just like physical strength.
Lin Yu was very excited.
But the excitement only lasted for a short while, and then it became quiet again.
After all, attribute points can only be obtained by spending time, and excitement and anxiety have no effect at all.
Just wait.
During these three years, many major events occurred in Sanxia Town.
Qi Wang retired.
He would come to the restaurant every day to chat with Lin Yu.
After a few visits, Qi Wang and Manager Gao became good friends.
The two of them often found a random seat in the store to drink and play chess.
Sometimes when Lin Yu is not busy, he will come and join in the fun.
However, when it comes to chess skills, Lin Yu cannot compare with the other two.
Another big thing is that the mayor died.
The mayor died of illness.
But the mayor is also very old, and just like the village chief of Zhaojia Village a few years ago, it can be considered a happy funeral.
The mayor's funeral was a grand affair.
Almost all the residents in the town went to pay their respects.
Although he did not make much contribution during his tenure as mayor, he still ensured the stability and prosperity of Sanxia Town, which was a great achievement.
On the day of the mayor's funeral, two strangers came to the town.
They looked to be around 40 or 50 years old and were two men.
The two men knelt down in front of the mayor's coffin, and then revealed their identities to everyone.
They are the mayor’s sworn brothers!
Some elderly people in the town immediately recognized the two men.
It is said that Sanxia Town was founded by these two people and the mayor.
This is also the origin of the name Sanxia Town.
The original will of the mayor was to let Qi Wang take over the position of mayor, but these two people suddenly appeared and took over the position.
However, Qi Wang didn't want to be the mayor in the first place. He had been looking forward to retirement for a long time.
In addition, these two people had legitimate reasons and no one in the town opposed it, so the position of mayor became theirs.
A mayor and a deputy mayor.
The mayor's name is Gao Sheng and the deputy mayor's name is Tang Hu.
The new mayor did not try to persuade Qi Wang to resign and agreed to his resignation out of hand.
Later, Deputy Mayor Tang Hu took over Qi Wang's position and concurrently served as the captain of the constable team.
Originally, this matter was nothing serious. Since the last incident with the cult members, nothing major had happened in the town. The constables only dealt with some daily trivial matters in the town.
but.
After Goldman Sachs and Tang Hu took office, they suddenly issued some new rules.
Among them, what was most difficult for the people of Sanxia Town to accept was that the new mayor increased taxes five times!
Not one times, not two times, but five times!
Originally, the tax rate in Sanxia Town was very low.
But the five-fold increase was indeed a bit too much for the town's merchants.
Many merchants organized themselves and wanted to go to the government office to seek leniency from the new mayor, but they were all turned away.
The new mayor even announced that anyone who dared not pay taxes on time would be expelled from Sanxia Town!
Sanxia Town is located in a relatively remote area, and the residents have lived here for many years. If they are expelled, it would be like they have lost their home.
Therefore, the vast majority of merchants still paid taxes on time.
Only a small part was submitted a few days late.
But the mayor did not actually expel them. Instead, he fined them, and the fine was said to be very large.
If you fail to pay the fine, you will still be deported.
…
This day.
As usual, Qi Wang came to play chess with Manager Gao.
As soon as he entered the door, Qi Wang made a strange sound of surprise: "Hey, your business is not very good today!"
Qi Wang came at noon.
I originally wanted to play chess and have a meal at the same time.
But unexpectedly, there was not a single table of customers in the store.
If it were normal, there would be at least five or six tables, and sometimes even full on good days.
Shopkeeper Gao walked out from the counter with a bitter face and said, "Not only is it not good, it's almost going bankrupt."
Qi Wang smiled and said, "Could it be that Lin Yu bankrupted them?"
Qi Wang also knew Lin Yu's appetite.
This was also the reason why he came to eat for free. After all, Manager Gao could afford to support a big eater like Lin Yu, so he probably wouldn't care about his small appetite.
Of course, Qi Wang is not short of money.
I just like to come and play with Manager Gao and Lin Yu.
However, when Manager Gao heard Qi Wang's joke, he did not joke this time. Instead, he straightened his face and said, "Ah, it's still because of the high taxes..."
"Oh?" Qi Wang's expression also turned serious, and he asked, "Can't you still hold on here?"
Cyclamen's business has always been good, so even if the tax rate is increased fivefold, it can still hold on.
This is what Manager Gao said a few days ago.
When Manager Gao heard Qi Wang's question, he shook his head.
"We were able to hold on before, but the problem is that other businesses in the town can't hold on. They can't hold on anymore, they have no money, and no one comes to eat..."
In fact, most of Cyclamen’s customers are merchants in the town.
Those merchants have no money, so naturally no one comes to eat.
This is a vicious cycle.
"Oh..." Qi Wang also sighed.
There was nothing he could do about this kind of thing.
Since his retirement, he has never returned to the yamen.
Now, he is just an ordinary citizen.
"Let's play chess, let's not talk about that anymore. I still have some savings, which will keep me going for a year or two and I won't starve to death!" Manager Gao greeted them and sat down by the window.
He was actually being modest.
His savings will easily last him five to eight years.
At this time, Lin Yu also heard the conversation between the two and walked out from behind.
Every day, Lin Yu would watch the two play chess and learn some chess skills at the same time.
"General!" Manager Gao danced with excitement.
Qi Wang scratched his ears and cheeks.
In this round, Manager Gao narrowly won.
"Come again, come again!" Qi Wang was not convinced and started to rearrange the chess pieces.
but.
At this time, the three of them saw through the window that two constables came outside.
Qi Wang was slightly stunned. He naturally knew these two constables. They were newcomers who had joined the constable group together with Lin Yu.
Of course, we can’t call you a newcomer now, it’s been several years.
"But what do the two of them mean by coming to the restaurant at this time?" Qi Wang was a little confused.
Under normal circumstances, the constables do not go off work at noon and will eat in the cafeteria of the yamen.
If you want to eat out, it can only be at night.
Manager Gao's face lit up with joy, and he quickly stood up and went to the door to greet them.
He thought there were guests coming.
"Dear guests, please come in!" Manager Gao greeted them with a smile.
Ever since Qi Wang, the old captain of the detectives, often came to the store to play, his store became a fixed gathering place for the detectives.
Therefore, Manager Gao is also very familiar with these constables.
However, the two constables looked unhappy, especially when they saw the old captain sitting by the window.
