Chapter 1464 Compulsory Expropriation

Lucini looked back at the young male priest!

Lin Chuan is sure that he definitely saw it, and Lucini made this action.

And the male priest also nodded slightly, and then Lucini turned his head, although this movement was very slight and subtle.

But Lin Chuan was sure that he saw this action.

What is the identity of this male priest? It doesn't seem low, is it the favored person of Saint Edwin?

so?

Lin Chuan's guess was fruitless, because he didn't know the situation inside.

But obviously, the identity of the young male pastor is not ordinary.

And Lucini also began to say: "Lord Lin Chuan, the Dark Kingdom has made a huge mistake and committed a huge crime that is not tolerated on the entire continent. The Star-Moon Kingdom is about to attack the Dark Kingdom."

So?

What does this have to do with me?

Fortunately, Lucini didn't need Lin Chuan to ask, and she didn't have a good sense of Lin Chuan, so she took the initiative to say it: "The kingdom needs to collect a part of taxes for every lord, to target the dark kingdom military action."

Maybe it's not that simple?

The Io Continent has a system of enfeoffment, and in the territory, the lord has the final say.

Of course, what Lucini said just now did not violate this rule, but the kingdom collects part of the tax from the territory every month.

This is already the maximum extent that the kingdom can achieve, no matter how big it is, it is not allowed by the kingdom's laws.

"so?"

Lin Chuan asked back: "What can I get?"

There must be rewards for giving, and even the kingdom cannot simply let itself hand over taxes.

The monthly tax is the condition of the kingdom as a protected territory.

And this extra tax must also have additional returns.

"What a greedy and cunning lord!" Lin Chuan heard the young male priest moan.

Lin Chuan immediately smiled and said, "In other words, the temple will forcefully collect the lord's tax, but it will not compensate at all? Besides, can you repeat what you said just now? I think it can be raised in the noble council of the kingdom. carry."

The male priest's face immediately changed drastically, and his face was very ugly.

Lucini didn't like Lin Chuan very much either, but she was also a little displeased with the words of the male priest behind him.

This is stipulated by the laws of the kingdom, although the status of the temple in the kingdom is supernatural.

But this is still not a reason for the Temple to impose taxes without compensation!

But at this time, it's not good to have an argument with Lin Chuan.

What a fool, Lucini is also speechless to the pastor behind, if you are like this, you come by yourself, why did you drag me here?

"Pay attention to your words, otherwise, the next thing will be done by yourself!" Lucini shouted, who wants to come here?

Lin Chuan is not so easy to get along with, do you think he is easy to bully?

Moreover, you serve Saint Edwin, don't you know the delicate relationship between him and Saint Edwin?

When the time comes, the gods will disappear, so don't blame me for not reminding me.

Well, I really didn't remind you.

After yelling, Lucini turned around, and her expression was not very good for Lin Chuan.

The relationship between the temple and the dynasty has always been very delicate.

On the one hand, the temple is a tool for the gods to shepherd all living beings, representing the gods, and their status is naturally high.

And many elves, including the lord, are believers of the gods, so they should have the greatest faith in the gods.

It is a pity that the greatest interest of the lord is the territory.

No one doesn't like wealth, and the temple also needs wealth to develop.

Even the priests of the temple like wealth very much, but these wealth belong to the lord.

There is no way for the temple to make the lord willingly hand over all his wealth.

This is impossible, everyone has their own thoughts.

Everyone has a different degree of belief in gods.

Not everyone can surrender everything, including their soul, without reservation.

This is the biggest conflict between the divine power of the temple and the royal power of the dynasty!

The world is full of prosperity, all for Lilai!

Lucini took out a map, spread it out, and said to Lin Chuan: "Of course, this is a document. There are marks on the map, you can take a look. Those green places are the territories you can choose .Of course, this requires you to hand in enough wealth. Besides, forget it, think for yourself.”

Lucini was about to say something, but in the end, she glanced at the male priest, and the two exchanged a look.

Lucini chose not to say anything in the end, and then Lucini said goodbye to Lin Chuan: "After you make your decision, please come to the temple as soon as possible and submit your decision. The choice of territory is going on every moment. If you The place you like is chosen by others first, then you need to choose again."

Seeing Lucini and others leave, Lin Chuan frowned.

This situation is different from what I thought.

"President, what's going on?" Sister Yao stepped forward and asked.

From Sister Yao's point of view, she naturally knew that this matter might not be easy.

The Star-Moon Kingdom is going to attack the Dark Kingdom?

Also, to impose taxes?

Why?

Lin Chuan shook his head and said, "I'm also confused now. I thought..."

Lin Chuan originally thought that it was about the underground world.

The abyss invasion has also been going on for a while, and it is in full swing.

At this time, shouldn't it be organized to attack the underground world and close the gate of the abyss?

Pick up the map, on it are all the places, towns, and minerals in the Kingdom of Darkness.

There are many places on it, which are circled by red circles.

Lin Chuan guessed that this should be the upper-class nobles of the kingdom, who had delineated a part of the land in advance.

In every battle, as long as there is a new territory, this is a new benefit.

For a lord, nothing is more precious than territory.

And there are many quasi-lords who hope to have a territory and become a real noble!

The territory is like a mineral that will never be exhausted, and it can generate endless benefits.

Not to mention, the minerals in the territory itself belong to the territory.

Lin Chuan looked at this map, and most of the towns were circled.

Soon, Lin Chuan set his sights on one place.

Youdu?

Lin Chuan's fingers tapped on the map unconsciously, and he was still thinking about what Lucini wanted to say before.

This matter, no matter how you look at it, is a little weird.

All of a sudden, he came to himself and said, to collect taxes.

If he hadn't asked himself what he needed to get, the temple would be more than happy to contribute for free.

Afterwards, he made a request, and Lucini took out the map, but later, he hesitated to speak.

This has something to do with the young male priest. What does the other party have to do with Saint Edwin? Why do you have to make trouble with yourself?
