Chapter 956

The leading tax officer came to the gate, stepped on a wooden chair, and said arrogantly: "It's time to pay taxes."

A young man clenched his fist, but was stopped by a middle-aged man. He stared at the tax officer and said with gritted teeth: "Lord Suo Xi, please wait a moment, I will go to inform the steward Walter."

"Hurry up."

The tax officer raised his eyebrows and said sarcastically: "I like to see you hate me and feel helpless towards me."

The young man clenched his fist tightly. If it weren't for his family, he really wanted to die with this bastard tax officer.

"Master, do you need me to deal with it?" Kyle asked.

Welin raised his hand and said: "No hurry, let's see how the steward of this dock will deal with this matter first."

As for Celeste, he stood aside and watched this scene coldly.

In less than a moment, a haggard middle-aged man walked out of the dock and looked at the tax officer Suo Xi with disgust in his eyes.

"Manager Walter, it's time to pay taxes." Tax officer Suo Xi looked at the visitor with a smile on his face and said.

Walter stared at the other party and said coldly: "We have paid all the taxes this year."

"Oh, look at my memory."

Tax officer Suo Xi patted his head with an exaggerated expression, then took out a tax order from his pocket, looked at it carefully, and then said: "By the way, it's not this year's tax, but next year's tax, a total of 25,000 gold coins."

After that, tax officer Suo Xi saved the tax order, looked up at the furious Walter, and said: "See if you pay all the taxes today, or wait for the army to come here to collect taxes tomorrow."

Walter suppressed the impulsive desire in his heart and said word by word: "Do you know whose property this dock is?"

"I only know that this is the port of Vilite in the Sudak Province of the Dawn Principality. Lord God is the city lord here and has the power to collect taxes. As for whose property this dock is, what does it have to do with me?" Tax officer Suo Xi said sarcastically.

"Okay, very good." Walter sneered, and then looked at his assistant, "Adam, go get 25,000 gold coins and let the tax officer take them back."

"Yes, manager."

Watching Walter's assistant leave, the tax officer Suo Xi showed a kind smile on his face and said with a smile: "Manager Walter, that's right!"

"As long as you pay taxes well, nothing will happen, otherwise you won't get a single ship repair order."

Ten minutes later, the tax officer Suo Xi took a stack of gold notes and left with two subordinates.

Looking at the backs of the three people, the manager standing behind Walter asked: "Manager, let's just let that bastard Gord bully us like this."

"Forbear for the time being, wait for the reply from above, and this bastard will be in trouble." Walter's eyes were filled with murderous intent, staring at the three people who left, and said coldly.

In the distance, Kyle watched the three tax officials leave, turned to look at Weilin, and asked: "Master, what should we do next."

"Let's go to the Pitman Shipyard first. I want to know what happened to the Eagle Chamber of Commerce of the Principality of Morning Light."

After that, Weilin walked up with a cold face.

After taking over the Eagle Chamber of Commerce of the Four Nations, these are his industries. Although he is only in charge, the income obtained is also his money.

It is normal to pay taxes normally and share profits with others.

But this kind of using power to take money out of his pocket, it doesn't matter if you don't see it. Now that you have seen it, don't blame him for being cruel if he doesn't spit it out ten times.

Walter, who was about to return to the shipyard, stopped when he saw someone coming.

"Sir, do you need to repair the ship?"

Hearing this, Weilin took out the eagle badge from the space ring slowly and showed it to the other party.

Seeing the somewhat abstract eagle badge, Walter's face changed drastically. He knelt down in front of everyone and bowed his head to salute, saying, "The manager of the Pittman Shipyard greets you, sir."

"Get up."

Welin put away the eagle badge and said.

After getting permission, Walter stood up and said with his head down, "Sir, please follow me."

Under the gaze of everyone, the three followed Walter and walked towards the stone building.

On the way, Weilin did not ask, and Walter did not speak.

When they arrived at the office, Weilin sat in the main seat, Kyle stood behind him, Celeste leaned against the door, and Walter stood in the lower seat, waiting to be questioned.

"Where is Robin?"

"To answer your lord, President Robin should be in the provincial capital of Sudak Province now."

"When did you last see him?"

"Eight months ago."

Walter did not dare to lie and answered truthfully.

Weilin tapped the table, looked at Walter, and asked in a deep voice: "That means you haven't seen Robin for eight months."

"Yes, sir."

Under Weilin's pressure, Walter's legs softened and he knelt down, with cold sweat on his forehead.

"So you don't know whether Robin is real or fake, or whether he is a thief."

"Yes... yes, sir, every time we send a letter, the reply always asks us to be patient. As long as someone from the Eagle Chamber of Commerce of the Holy Third Kingdom of Dawn comes, the matter can be resolved."

Weilin stared at Walter and asked word by word: "Eight months, don't you wonder why no one came to solve this matter?"

Under great pressure, Walter touched the sweat on his forehead and answered with some difficulty: "President Luo... President Robin said... said that the Eagle Chamber of Commerce of the Holy Third Dawn Kingdom is busy with business, and will send someone in May next year."

"Besides, let me... I don't want to look for him casually."

"Let me ask you again, how much profit does the Pittman Shipyard make every year?"

"Excluding all expenses, it can make a profit of 5,000... 30,000 gold coins every year." Walter knocked his head on the floor and answered tremblingly.

At this moment, he has realized that something is wrong.

"Hehe, I said that the annual profit here is only 30,000 gold coins, and the shipyard that occupies half of the assets has not even accounted for half of the profit. It turns out that it was eaten by thieves."

"Kyle."

"My lord, please give your orders." Kyle answered with a serious face.

"Take Walter with you and go to the capital of Sudak Province to bring Robin back to me."

"Yes."

Kyle bowed his head and came behind Walter, picked him up, left the office, and flew northwest.

Welin put his hand on the table, supported his chin, and began to recall Robin's information.

Robin, an Elia native, a mid-level gold warrior, was originally the deputy captain of the Blood Moon Count's guard. During the five-year war between the kingdom and the Is Half-Elf Kingdom, he was seriously injured. After being injured, he was demoted to the Eagle Chamber of Commerce of the Morning Light Principality as the branch president, responsible for managing the industry here.
