Li Yuan opened his eyes when it was morning, yet he was still reluctant to get out of his bed. He wanted to enjoy an atmosphere he had not felt for a long time. He pulled his blanket again and continued his rest.
This morning in Huanxie City, news of the Black Cobra group's destruction had already spread. They were killed during an attack on Li Dan's family. This news suddenly ignited the agitation of Patriarch Li Cuan, his prestige as the Patriarch of the Li Clan continued to decline along with Li Dan's brilliance.
"Shelf!
The sound of the table breaking into pieces.
The insolent!
Li Cuan's jolt was full of emotions.
"Quiet the Patriarch" Li Chang said, trying to calm down Li Cuan, who was burning with emotion.
"Li Dan is getting brazen, he's already taken over our family business partner. Now his strength is also increasing" Patriarch Li said desperately.
Hearing Li Cuan's words, the entire room became silent. They all did not deny the words of Patriarch Li Cuan, Li Dan's development was indeed very rapid. Plus the destruction of the Black Cobra group made its prestige even more soaring.
The news of the five Sky Warriors killed was the most phenomenal so far. Some people started wavering to join Li Dan.
After a moment of silence, elder Li Chang said, "We still have hope, young master Li Ming and the others are disciples of the Laohu Sect. Later their presence will make the situation as it was" Li Chang said.
Then the atmosphere became a little calmer. Elder Li Chang's words had a point as well.
At noon in Li Yuan's room.
Li Yuan opened his eyes, he saw his surroundings it was already noon. He rested very comfortably this time, slowly he got up and headed towards the window in the corner of the room. Li Yuan turned his head, he saw the sun was already right above the sky. Soon she cleaned herself and put on her new clothes.
Li Yuan stepped towards the central room, looking at Li Peiyu who was waiting for him.
“Huh, old young master once slept” grumbled Li Peiyu with spoiled.
“Hahaha.. Where is the princess going?” li Yuan replied jokingly as well.
“Kak, I want to take a walk to the center of Kota” said Li Peiyu.
“Hmm.. Alright I will accompany you” Li Yuan said with a smile.
“All right we leave now just” said Li Peiyu.
“Is there nothing else? Ask Li Yuan
“It's ready, let's go! bring Li Peiyu
The two brothers set out for the city centre on foot, deliberately not using a horse carriage. The distance of their residence with the city center is not too far away, they reminisce about the times in the Yellow Bamboo Village when they were still in a difficult situation. Besides that Li Yuan did not want to be famous, he wanted to remain humble.
In Huanxie City, his father's family had almost certainly become the number one family defeating Patriarch Li. Li Dan's name is getting famous because the breakthrough of his business is very extraordinary.
Before long they walked, they got closer to the crowd. That afternoon the gust of wind in Huanxie City was so pronounced in Li Yuan's ears, making his flying desire suddenly appear.
Along the way Li Peiyu told him a lot about the progress of Huanxie City, she looked like a knowledgeable girl beside Li Yuan. Li Yuan was very happy to see the excitement on his sister's face.
Li Yuan was also briefly stunned several times, he did not expect the change of Huanxie City so quickly. Many new buildings as the business center of the city of Huanxie are neatly arranged, as a businessman his father also put forward aesthetics.
Across the street, Li Yuan found a small child. Her clothes were shabby with her skin slightly black from the sun. The boy smiled towards Li Yuan, swinging his hand about to call out.
On the streets there were pedestrians passing by, even among them there were those carrying swords hung on his waist.
While Li Peiyu looked at her brother with a sigh and said, Are we going to approach the boy”? ask Li Peiyu.
“Ya” replied her brother briefly.
Li Peiyu only nodded lightly as her brother was already approaching the boy. Beside the boy was a couple who were chatting. Li Yuan saw there was anxiety on the faces of the two married couples.
The boy shook Li Yuan's clothes, pulling his clothes as if pointing at the merchandise of his parents. Li Yuan looked at the neatly arranged sweets on the table. Without a doubt Li Yuan immediately said, “Bu, I want the sweets next to there” Li Yuan said as he pointed at the sweets in question.
“Good young master"
the woman replied while serving Li Yuan graciously.
Li Yuan received some sweets with his right hand, “How much does bu cost? li Yuan asked politely.
His right hand thrust out the sweets to Li Peiyu.
“Ten silver coins” replied the mother with a sigh.
In Huanxie City silver and gold became the main medium of exchange for transactions. Energy stones are used
for transactions of greater value.
Li Yuan was speechless, “Ten silver coins?” asked Li Yuan.
“Is too expensive” asks the woman a little confused.
“Not expensive” Li Yuan said with a bright smile. He took out a bag of money and handed it to the woman.
“It..This is too many young masters” said the woman after checking the money bag.
The merchant woman saw so many gold coins, even very
a lot for the size of people like him.
“Receive it, the rest you can use to open a more decent restaurant” said Li Yuan. He had heard earlier that the couple was complaining about economic hardship.
Shortly after, three men appeared in blue clothes. They approached the seller and surrounded him with a savage face.
"Quick! Take out your taxes" said one of them in a pushy tone.
"What tax again, sir?" ask the woman who owns the stall.
"Development tax" said the first person. The other two stood arrogantly.
Li Yuan who was about to leave became speechless. He held his sister's arm, gesturing her to stay. Li Yuan became a little interested in the word development tax.
"We are from the Life Resources Association, we are the tax collectors to build this city. Do you not see the existing development?" said that guy.
"Gentlemen, isn't that using Mr Li's own money?" said the owner of the stall while holding the hand of his young son.
"You want to pay or not? or we destroy your place" said the man in a threatening tone.
