"This life is impossible, Baron Levi has to increase taxes again!

This greedy devil has taken away 60% of our food, but he has not let us go!

Poor my husband, since he became the devil's soldier, he has never sent a copper plate to his house..."

A woman with a vicissitudes of life and a vicissitudes of life cried at the entrance of the village.

"Oh, it's not just the one from your family, but my youngest son came home from vacation last time, and I realized that the stingy devil had never paid them military pay!

I asked my son to leave Baron Levi's private army, but he actually called me, the father who was ungrateful and defiled the glory of the devilish nobleman!

This child has been a soldier for less than half a year and has not received anything. He is still devoted to the devil Li Wei..."

"So too, my brother. I finally took a vacation and went home. I just complained that Baron Li Wei had too much tax, so he gave me a beat!

If it weren't for my mother stopping me, he would have tied me to the public security office...

I am his real sister!”

"You guys say, does Baron Levi have any witchcraft that can confuse people's hearts?

Otherwise, why did the people who served in the army have no military pay and admire Baron Li Wei very much?"

As soon as these words came out, the person sitting around suddenly fell into a strange silence.

At this moment, a group of more than a dozen soldiers suddenly came from outside, rushed over with bayonets and flintlock rifles, surrounding everyone present.

An officer with the rank of lieutenant wearing Gaobang military boots and walked to a group of old, young, women and children with serious faces: "I have received a report that someone here is criticizing the great Baron Levi, so you have been arrested.

If you don’t want to enter the labor service, just let your family take the money to redeem people.”

After saying that, the team of infantry soldiers in standard black military uniforms took away all the people gathered at the entrance of the village as they cried.

When one of the old men saw that one of the soldiers was his youngest son, he quickly shouted: "Child, it's me, your father, please help me plead with the superior."

His youngest son seemed to not know his old father, and replied in a cold tone: "I'm sorry, father, Baron Levi's honor is higher than anything else.

Don't worry, as long as you are honest, you won't have any worries about your life."

"Child, can you save me? The family has no money and no copper coins!"

"Father, you should know that I am fighting for glory for Baron Levi, and I have no military pay."

"Everyone, the sentence is doubled!"

At this time, the lieutenant glanced at the old man who was constantly shouting, and scolded in a cold tone.

Named by the Charles family as the center of the town of Charles, there is a noble villa with a height of up to three floors.

In the three-story bedroom, Levi Charles, a 16-year-old young traveler, was wearing a silk robe and holding a goblet in his hand. While slowly swaying the amber wine inside, he walked to the window overlooking the entire town of Charles.

"It has been half a year since we traveled through time, and it has a little bit of foundation. Today is May 8, 1789. If the history of this parallel world has not deviated much, the third-level meeting held by King Louis XVI should have failed at this time.

France is about to enter a chaotic world.

I don’t know if my parents in this world can protect themselves in Paris.

And my two sisters who only know how to spend money to compete and are addicted to the handsome guys with a white face, and have not found a suitable marriage partner.

Alas, my rights are still too low. Even as the legitimate son of the Charles family, my father would not believe me and insisted on staying in Paris to enjoy a rich life."

When Li Wei was thinking a lot, a soft body suddenly hugged his waist from behind.

Li Wei felt the plumpness and softness of a certain part behind him, and grabbed his delicate arms with a smile on his mouth and turned around.

"Young Master, do you need to prepare breakfast now?"

A pair of blue crystal eyes raised and looked at Li Wei and asked.

This is Anne, a close-fitting maid carefully selected by Li Wei. She is 14 years old and is like a flower. She does not have the body odor unique to French women, but she has proud capital at a young age.

"Okay, my little sweetheart."

When Annie's cheeks turned red when she heard Levi's intimate name.

A woman who can become a traditional aristocratic boy and get the tenderness of the other party is as glad as a beef pie falling from the sky for Anne, who is a civilian.

Until now, I have rolled over the bed sheets with Li Wei, and I still feel unreal, afraid that this beautiful life is just an empty dream.

Of course, although Anne is a civilian, she is not an ordinary civilian. Her father is the famous gun manufacturing workshop in Charles town and a powerful arms dealer in this area.

Only such a wealthy family can raise a girl with delicate skin.

However, no matter how rich Anne's father was, in today's France, he was also a inferior existence when he met nobles and monks from the church.

In the eyes of nobles and church monks, these rich merchants and capitalists are inferior bitches like the mud legs in the fields.

The only thing that the nobles and the church are interested in is the golden little cuteness in the pockets of these inferior people.

This shows how lucky Anne's family is to be able to get along with Li Wei, a young master who is a genuine and traditional aristocratic family.

The weapons used by the private army formed by Li Wei almost all came from Anne's father's gun workshop, and were basically sold and given away half.

Of course, Li Wei also reciprocates, and Anne's father became the first Lord promoted by Li Wei in Charles town.

The town of Charles and its surrounding villages are all fiefs of the Charles family. Li Wei's father is a veritable French sword nobleman and a noble earl!

Of course, Li Wei's father was not willing to return to the family territory to experience the "hard cold" life. He has always settled in the city of Paris, and is a traditional royalist party, holding an important position in the Paris city government.

If it weren't for Li Wei's request, he would have enjoyed the joy of the luxurious life and rights of the nobles in Paris at this time.

If there was no full-scale war system, perhaps Li Wei would have done that.

After all, many characters in this parallel world are different from the French history of the world in his previous life, and the French Revolution may not necessarily occur.

At least, Li Wei thought so when he first came here.

However, since receiving the news that King Louis XVI held a third-level meeting in Versailles yesterday, Levi knew that his thoughts were still too optimistic.

Fortunately, Li Wei, who has a comprehensive war system, has already made preparations in advance.

After breakfast, Li Wei came to the study on the second floor and was also in his office. The mayor of Charles town and the chief manager of the Charles family. An old man with a hunched back and a little hunched back had already been waiting here.

Levi looked up and saw that Joseph Charles, who was in his 40s, was as old as an old man in his sixties or seventies.

This is not because the other party is overworking, but because the technology level in this world is too low, people's average life expectancy is often very short, and early aging is the norm. In the 40s, it is already considered a long life in the civilian class.

Of course, Joseph, who is the chief steward of the Charles family territory, looks very good in spirit.

"Young master, there is still no one at the recruitment site. The people are very resistant to joining the army. Many people think that we have performed witchcraft and control the soldiers in the first phase of Charles training camp, which has led to their relatives not recognizing them..."

Joseph's tone was reported in a gentle tone.

This is not the first time he has reminded Li Wei!

Although Joseph didn't know what means Li Wei used to make those soldiers devote themselves to him, it was too deceptive to not pay military salaries. Not to mention the territory of the Charles family, even the town next door knew that there was a stingy man in the Charles family.

Of course, if he didn't do this, Li Wei would not be able to establish a front-line infantry regiment, with a total of a thousand fully armed front-line combat soldiers!

“Joseph, I heard that taxes in the territory have increased again?

I haven't issued this order.

As a part-time tax officer, do you have anything to explain?”

Joseph looked slightly surprised. He didn't expect that the 16-year-old nobleman who could not manage the territory at all and who only knew how to run into the military camp and play with women all day long would notice that he had added taxes in private!

Li Wei's tone of questioning was very calm, but he had already greeted Joseph's eighteen generations of ancestors in his heart.

If it weren't for the soldiers from the training camp built by the total war system who were loyal to him and reported in private, Li Wei would not have known Joseph's work!

No one reported this to Li Wei from officials to minor officials in the entire Charles family territory.

What does this mean?

Joseph's influence is much greater here than his listed young master!

If Joseph hadn't been his father's distant cousin and his father's confidant, Li Wei would have been unable to touch him and would have ordered the greedy old man to be arrested.

The other party increases taxes and increases taxes in his own name. In his own name, Li Wei knew that his reputation had been rotten in the entire Charles territory...

Joseph had prepared to take out a thick stack of documents and handed them to Li Wei. When Li Wei saw the dense numbers and tables on it, one head and two big ones.

What he hated most when he was in school was mathematics!

"Young Master, this is the financial statement for this year. It costs a lot to expand enrollment and form a first-line infantry regiment.

Even if there is no military pay, the soldiers' living expenses, the ammunition consumption under high-intensity training, the large-scale procurement of standard black military uniforms, etc., are all expensive expenses.

Moreover, the entire French Kingdom suffered a rare drought last year, and the grain harvest dropped sharply. Without tax increases, it would not meet the daily consumption of the front-line infantry regiments.

Master, I sincerely remind you that here, the private guards of dozens or hundreds of people are enough to protect your safety!
