"The person in the hibernation chamber suddenly woke up, grabbed my hand, and started biting me. Blood was pouring out. Look, Senior Shen, the scar is still so deep."
Eh~ I can’t bear to look at it.
I heard that the bacteria in people's mouths are just as abundant as those in cats and dogs, and it's easy to get a serious bacterial infection. I don't know if my junior sister has had a rabies vaccine.
"Why did he bite you? Was he so hungry?"
"He stuffed the lord's order into my hand and asked me to join the company with just a drop of blood! I couldn't refuse." If Lin Tiange's tears could turn into pearls, she would definitely become rich.
The document only stated that Lin Tiange obtained the City Lord's Order by chance, but the word "by chance" was obviously not vivid enough.
Such an adventure is worth writing an article like "StarCraft: I was forced to become the lord of a deserted planet" or "After picking up a big guy, I finally don't have to pick up junk in the interstellar space". Of course, "StarCraft: Everyone wants to be bitten" also looks very good.
What followed were the miserable days of being a lord.
The desolate planet suddenly had a lord, and the empire system automatically started to assign her various tasks every day.
The first and foremost thing is paying taxes!
Wow! The people on the desolate planet are so miserable they can't even afford nutritional supplements. They rely entirely on gathering and hunting. Their monetary system is on the verge of collapse, and you want them to pay taxes? Lin Tiange wanted to hand it over in kind.
"What are the consequences of not paying taxes?" Not paying is definitely not an option, but if it's not a serious matter, is it okay to just be a deadbeat?
"Of course not. If you don't pay taxes on time, you'll incur interest. There will also be severe penalties." Zhou Chang's cheek muscles twitched. "Or maybe Lord Lin should just speak for himself."
"Senior Shen, this villain of the Empire actually put the blame on the Lord!"
Huh? This isn't right!
Isn't everyone a taxpayer? If you can't pay your taxes, at most you can hold the lord accountable for the administration, but why should you charge the lord for the money?
Then the lord would not be the chief executive, but a legitimate slave owner.
"Zhou Chang, is this the law of the empire?" Tianjiu found it a little hard to believe. No wonder Zhou Chang didn't know what to say.
She's also a lord, so wouldn't she be the one being taken advantage of? How could this be tolerated?
Zhou Chang quickly denied it. If this was the law, it would be a disgrace to the empire.
"No, it's just that when the number of taxpayers in the territory falls below 500, the taxes are charged to the lord's personal account."
Wow, for a moment, everyone looked at Lin Tiange with pity.
A large planet with less than 500 inhabitants? The rest are all illegal residents.
The clans and tribes in primitive society were probably stronger than this.
So she has to work hard to support these 500 people?
Tianjiu was very sure that for the less than 500 people in the territory, even having children would be counted as a KPI, for fear that if the number exceeded 500, they would have to pay taxes for the lord.
At this moment, Lin Tiange had collapsed on the ground in despair, grabbing his hair and wanting to hang himself.
"Senior Shen, I've looked up all the laws of the empire, and I can't even resign. The only options are death or dismissal! If I don't pay my taxes, I'll be thrown in jail! I'll be held accountable even in jail!"
Haha! The lord can only die, or commit suicide!
One word, absolutely.
As he spoke, Lin Tiange suddenly stood up on his knees and begged Zhou Chang, "Please, can you think of a way to keep me out of jail? Exile me! I'm not afraid of exile. I've already lived in exile! But if you arrest me, what will happen to my mother?"
It was so horrific that Wei Cheng couldn't stand it any longer. "I've never seen a territory star like this before. Old Zhou, why don't you take another look?"
Zhou Chang just accepted everyone's hopeful gazes, searching hard with his head down, sweat pouring down his forehead.
These related ancient laws were mainly intended to restrain the lords of the great families and to bind the threats in this way.
With the head of the family captured, the family had to work hard to run the business. There were probably not many lords like this one who were left alone to lead the army in the history of the universe.
Everyone was silently waiting for Zhou Chang's result, but Zhou Chang found nothing and wished he could bury his head in Xing's brain and let him go.
Finally, he paddled for a while and shook his head.
Alas, there is really no way.
"Then why did you come to the military academy? What about your family?"
When asked this, Lin Tiange seemed to come alive a little.
"Ah, this is because of the Empire's education policy. The Empire requires that every planet's education infrastructure meet standards. For a planet like mine, the proportion of educated people must be at least 30%. The Empire also gives preferential policies to the top-ranked, including scholarships and commuting expense reimbursement!"
Tianjiu understood. This was a typical example of getting rich through studying.
"There were no schools on the territory planet, so I had to ask my mother to set up a school. But no one had time to study, so I was the only one who graduated successfully, got the money, and came to the capital planet."
"The last time you participated in a singing competition..." That was how Tianjiu got to know her.
"That's right! Senior, that prize money could cover my taxes for three years. But I don't know which young lady deliberately played tricks on me and prevented me from getting the money. But thankfully, Senior is helping me with my tuition, and I'm feeling a lot less stressed."
Lin Tiange was truly grateful to Tianjiu. At that time, she had nowhere else to turn. The money she earned from singing in a bar outside was repeatedly deducted by the head waiter, leaving her with very little.
She has no other skills and it is difficult for her to make money.
If she ran out of money, she would have no choice but to find a job in the black market.
It's really miserable.
Tianjiu thought of the former African working emperor! He opened a car repair shop in the United States and supported an entire country.
Wow, history always repeats itself in an amazing way.
"However, Lord Lin, according to the system records, your excellent tax payment record has triggered a system warning. If you cannot provide a reasonable explanation for this round of performance review, you may fail."
Lin Tiange, who had been looking pitiful all the time, suddenly froze: "Excellent, excellent isn't even acceptable?"
Her panicked look made her lose her image as a good girl.
She retracted her hands and feet, not daring to touch Tianjiu's skirt again, and seemed to want to escape.
Tianjiu's heart suddenly changed from sympathy to sympathy for herself.
I feel like I have been cheated.
This might not be some innocent little white rabbit struggling to survive in hardship. This might be a wolf that only eats the wronged.
Yes, she is the one who is simple.
How could it be possible for a little girl who could feed 500 people by picking up garbage on a deserted planet to be so simple?
"Lord Lin, please tell the truth. Otherwise, there is no need to report to the Lord. I can send you directly to prison."
Zhou Chang finally showed some strength. After that day, he had almost lost all the face of his position as the Deputy Chief of Staff of the Imperial Army.
Lin Tiange was reluctant to speak and even tried to kneel down in front of Tianjiu, with his brows lowered and tears in his eyes, begging pitifully.
Although Tianjiu was a little angry, she was still angry with herself. As for Lin Tiange's fate, it was in her own hands, and she would not interfere.
"Just tell me. Even if you don't, they'll always find a way to make you speak. By then, you might not be as respectable as you are now."
Tianjiu pulled back the hem of her skirt and turned slightly to the side. There was nothing she could do. What ability did she have? She herself didn't even know what the Territory Star was like.
After much hesitation, Lin Tiange twisted his hands together and almost broke his fingers, but finally he told the truth.
"I, we'll go to the radiation zone and move the garbage. Then we'll find some skilled craftsmen to create secondary works and recycle them to the environmental protection company that regularly collects the garbage..."
Hiss~~~Making and selling arms, she put it so nicely.
The little girl is so amazing, she is actually an arms chief!
"An environmental protection company? There aren't any environmental protection companies that regularly visit the Yalai system. Can you confirm the full name of the environmental protection company?"
Zhou Chang cannot use this authority to directly investigate the territory star privately.
"It seems, it seems to be called Ninghai Environmental Technology?"
Huh? The one from the Shen family?
