I am surrounded by beauties in the Gods and Demons Game Center

In fact, Zhang Wei was not very concerned about the rebellion in Rosales Town. After all, it was not his territory. Moreover, the king had gone to great lengths to kill him. Not only did he send out brave men, he even agreed to use level 9 forbidden shackles on Zhang Wei. He was not even worried that once this thing was leaked, it would arouse the brave men's vigilance against the royal family.

However, Rosales came to Zhang Wei three times a day to cry, which made Zhang Wei a little overwhelmed. In addition, Count Choudhury and Bloody Knight Ellison also kept coming to visit. They were worried that other territories would follow suit, and they all hoped that Zhang Wei could intervene in the rebellion in Rosales Town.

Zhang Wei was so annoyed that he had to accept the commission and lead the Dalinmu Guild to Rosales Town to resolve the rebellion.

The leader of the rebellion in Rosales Town was Carola Chaney, the newly elected president of the Roselles Chamber of Commerce. In order to prevent a bloody suppression by the kingdom, she did not kill Viscount Rosales and his subordinate officials, but expelled them from the town.

After driving away the local rulers and officials, Cheney organized a provisional government. He also sent people to infiltrate other viscounts and baronies, trying to incite the residents, merchants and adventurers of the noble territories to rebel, in order to share the pressure of suppressing the rebellion in the kingdom and make more allies.

Cheney knew that when Viscount Rosales arrived in Chaudhuri City, Count Chaudhuri and others would certainly send troops to suppress the rebellion in order to prevent other nobles from following suit. Therefore, Cheney had been actively preparing for war and had set up multiple defense lines inside and outside the town. In Cheney's view, Chaudhuri City was now facing internal and external troubles. As long as she could repel the first attack, Rosales Town would be able to achieve freedom and democracy like Raza City.

When Qian Ni learned that the people who came to attack were Zhang Wei and the Dalinmu Guild, she was shocked. She was not afraid of the Dalinmu Guild, but she was afraid of Zhang Wei. After all, she had first heard the news that Zhang Wei had defeated the Lionheart Knight outside the dungeon, and later heard that Zhang Wei was a vampire and was rescued by the goddess of reincarnation when he was burned at the stake. He was a messenger recognized by the goddess of reincarnation.

After thinking about it, Chaney decided to go out of the city to meet with Zhang Wei, because Chaney remembered that there was a rumor that Zhang Wei gained ownership of Rosales Town after breaking through the underground city. If the rumor was true, razing Rosales Town to the ground was not in Zhang Wei's actual interest.

Outside the town of Rosales.

"I'm Carola Chaney, the temporary commander of Rosales Town. I want to see Zhang Wei." Chaney brought several adventurers to the outside of the city and stopped the team of the Big Forest Guild.

"Oh, temporary commander, right? Self-appointed?" Zhang Wei walked out slowly.

"Mr. Zhang Wei, I think we could have a chat." Qian Ni invited.

Zhang Wei glanced at Qianni and the adventurers behind her, then nodded in agreement.

When Qian Ni saw that Zhang Wei agreed, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief. She asked her men behind her to wait there, and then she followed Zhang Wei to a big tree in the distance.

On the way, Chaney tried to convince Zhang Wei that for Zhang Wei, it didn't matter who managed Rosales Town. The only difference was who could provide Zhang Wei with more income.

"So you are sure you can provide more income?" Zhang Wei was a little curious about what Qianni said. It was indeed as Qianni said, Zhang Wei had no interest or intention in managing the territory. Otherwise, with his abilities, the territory would be easily obtained.

Seeing that Zhang Wei was interested in what he said, Qian Ni quickly expressed his own idea, which was that tax revenue could be increased by increasing trade. Although Rosales Town was not on the sea, the three baronies under its jurisdiction were on the sea. If maritime trade and international trade were increased, tax revenue would definitely be increased.

"Moreover, these tax amounts are definitely several times, dozens of times or even hundreds of times what farmers pay!" Chaney said, his eyes shining.

"Don't you know that the kingdom has a maritime ban?" Zhang Wei's words were like a bucket of cold water poured on Qian Ni's head.

"Sir Zhang Wei, this is why we have to revolt. The kingdom has become extremely corrupt, the classes are rigid, and the people have suffered from heavy taxes for a long time. The local nobles only know how to indulge in luxury and debauchery, but do not know how to be enterprising and innovative. They cannot even do the daily maintenance of official roads. Such a country will sooner or later perish!" Qiani said excitedly. She felt that she was experiencing history, no, she was creating history.

"Who gave you this illusion and courage? Lhasa City?" Zhang Wei looked at Qian Ni curiously.

Chaney acquiesced.

Zhang Wei laughed. He laughed at Qianni's short-sightedness and inability to see the overall situation. He said, "As long as the kingdom is willing, Laza City can be conquered at any time. What will happen to all those who follow suit? Do you really think your little tricks can shake the entire kingdom?"

Qian Ni was hurt by Zhang Wei's laughter. She lowered her head and said nothing, but she still felt a little unconvinced in her heart.

"You think the kingdom is so weak that it can change its flag in an instant if someone raises their arm. However, don't forget that the royal family has always had the strongest army in the country and has the most adventurer quotas. Even if the three dukes rebel at the same time, the royal family has the ability to defeat them. Not only because the royal family has four heroes, but also because their high-level combat power quota accounts for nearly the total number of the three dukes."

"So, the three dukes would rather fight openly or secretly than unite to overthrow the royal family. Because they know they can't win. And have you ever thought about why there are three dukes in the kingdom, and three marquises under the dukes, but only one earl under the marquis? And the earl has three viscounts, and the viscount has three barons. Why is there only one earl?"

"Is it intentional to leave a gap in the middle to prevent local nobles from banding together?" Cheney asked with a wry smile.

"You are quite smart. The kingdom is bordered by the Ice Empire to the north, the Desert Scimitar to the west, the Hundred Thousand Mountains to the south, and the Endless Sea to the east. Are all the nobles in the kingdom fools? Don't they know that opening up trade can make money? Then why does the royal family not allow border trade and crack down on smuggling, but none of the local nobles dare to speak up?"

"Because the royal family is afraid that the local nobles will become too powerful, they would rather make less money than let the local nobles and people become rich." After answering this, Chaney felt his heart bleeding.

"Now do you understand why the kingdom has ignored the Monster Forest within its borders and has always maintained heavy taxes on the local area?"

"In order to consolidate the royal power, weaken the people's wisdom, impoverish the people in the local areas, and make them busy just for a living, without the time to want more." Chaney stood under the big tree and reached out to touch the rough trunk.

"So, you just took over a viscountship that was temporarily ownerless due to internal strife, and you think you can really make history? I think you should have incited the people, merchants and adventurers in other territories to rebel together, but was it effective? As long as they still have hope of survival, why would they risk their heads to rebel with you?"

"No matter how heavy the taxes are, at least they won't starve to death. No matter how extravagant and licentious the nobles are, they can't see it. Working from sunrise to sunset at least means there's hope for survival. You think the royal family is corrupt, but you never thought that their methods of weakening the people are so vicious that the weak people don't even have the idea of ​​resisting."

Qianni: “…”

"Let me say one last thing. How do you know that Lazar City is not a trap deliberately set by the royal family to attract more potential threats to show up?"

Qian Ni was speechless. She slowly knelt on the ground. At this moment, she seemed to have been sentenced to death and no longer had the strength to resist.
