Fang Baibai was surprised and asked, "Grandpa, how did you know we were going to bring people here?"
Grandpa Fang waved his hand and said, "Chengcheng, take him out to play."
"Okay."
After the two children left, Grandpa Fang poured them tea and said with a smile, "I wonder which of you two has obtained the Lord's Order of Fangshan Town? I am Fang Zhounan, and I am honored to meet the Lord of Fangshan Town."
Chen Wangping didn't hide it. He took out the Lord's Order of Fangshan Town and said, "Mr. Fang, you're too polite. Your level 4 strength is not bad. Why do you stay here and become a tea-making old man?"
Fang Zhounan was a little surprised, but then he realized that the two people in front of him were hiding their strength. They looked to be level three, but in fact they were two level fours.
With such strength, he is only capable of being a small city lord in a remote wilderness. Why would he be interested in the inconspicuous Fangshan Town?
He sighed inwardly, cupped his hands, and said with a smile, "Town Master, you're joking. Making tea is also part of cultivation. I hope the Town Master can explain why you came to Fangshan Town."
Chen Wangping was just picking up the teacup at this moment, and said with a smile, "Town Master, that sounds too awkward. Just call me Xiao Wang. Let me try this tea first."
Fang Zhounan quickly changed the address and said, "Mayor Wang, please come and enjoy it."
Chen Wangping took a sip carefully and found that the tanning method of this tea was similar to that of green tea. It took the fragrance of tea leaves and tasted good. After drinking it, he felt much more refreshed.
He got straight to the point, "Don't worry, Mr. Fang. My purpose in becoming mayor is simple: to find some peace and quiet and to relax. I also have a few questions for you, Mr. Fang. How much tax does Fangshan Town collect now? And to whom does it pay?"
Fang Zhounan immediately replied, "Since the position of mayor has been vacant for a long time, the Thunder Source Land has temporarily assigned me as the tax collector. Currently, Fangshan Town's tax revenue is the minimum standard required by the Thunder Source Land, which is a five-cent tax."
Tang Xihe was surprised and asked, "Five cents tax? And that's just the minimum standard? How are your crops?"
Fang Zhounan smiled bitterly and said, "It's called a five-cent tax, but in reality, in a small town like ours, people from the Thunder Source Land wouldn't come to investigate. As long as I can pay fifteen gold coins every year, I'm considered tax-free. You've seen the situation in town, and when it's not enough, I always use my belongings to cover it."
Chen Wangping smiled and nodded. This situation was not bad. Fang Zhounan had voluntarily stayed here to protect the people of Fangshan Town.
Otherwise, if you rely on selling coal mines, you may not be able to earn fifteen gold coins in a year.
"Taxes are not the problem. Tell me what's going on inside the mine."
