Du Di'an was surprised and followed into the living room.

Besides Gray, there were two other figures in the living room. One was a middle-aged man with a fat body and a full belly. He wore three or four gold rings on his fingers, and he looked like a rich man. The other was a thin man dressed in a black gentleman. Suit, hair neatly combed, like an aristocrat.

"Grey, pay attention to your attitude!" When Du Di'an walked in, he just heard the screeching voice of the thin man.

Gray clenched his fists tightly, looked at him angrily, and said, "We bought this house, and the tax here has long been written clearly in the contract. If you want to increase the property tax, it is not legal at all. !"

The fat middle-aged man chuckled and said, "Illegal? You are a little tailor, what do you know about the law? This entire Linkang street is my territory. In my territory, what I say is the law, even if you I didn't even go to the court, and I welcome you to go anytime."

Gray gritted his teeth and said, "You guys are robbery!"

"Hmph, you are slandering, slandering, and you have already attacked me personally, I can sue you!" The thin man said coldly.

At this moment, Jula looked at Gray, who was blushing, and hurriedly held his hand, and said to the fat middle-aged man, "Give us some time to discuss this matter, we can't afford such a high tax. "

The fat middle-aged man said indifferently: "You are still sensible, but I have given you a few days. Today is the last day. I will come back in the evening. I hope you will give me a satisfactory answer." He turned his neckline, raised his head slightly, and walked in front of Gray.

"Wait a minute." At this moment, a figure stood in front of him, it was Du Dian.

"Huh?" The fat middle-aged man lowered his head, looked at Du Di'an whose head only reached his chin, frowned and said, "Little guy, who are you?"

At this time, Gray also noticed Du Dian, saw his completely changed appearance, and said in amazement: "Dian? You, are you back?"

Du Di'an nodded slightly, then looked up at the fat middle-aged man, and said, "I think it's very hard to run back and forth with your figure, it's better to talk just once, and we don't like being visited too much. disturb."

The fat middle-aged man was stunned for a moment and smiled: "Little guy, you are quite sensible. I heard that Gray has an adopted child, is that you?"

Du Di'an didn't answer him, but continued: "First of all, according to Article 6 of Chapter 3 of the Land Law, anyone who buys land and real estate at one time must pay the property tax and house rent at one time. When you buy this house, you have already paid for it, otherwise you won't get the property certificate for this house, then the problem comes."

"In the seventh chapter of the fourth chapter of the law, all the authority and taxation of the house belong to the owner of the house, and only the lord of the house has the right to take it back."

Du Di'an looked at him and said: "You said that the entire Linkang street is your territory? Can you see the certificate of your territory? Even if you want to collect taxes, you still need to go to the court and show you in the witness of the priest. Is it possible to obtain a tax contract?”

The obese middle-aged man couldn't help stunned.

The thin man who followed him was startled for a moment, his face gloomy, and said: "Little guy, what nonsense are you talking about, the lord's proof is what you want to see?"

Du Dian looked up at him and said calmly: "If you can't show the lord's certificate, please leave and don't bother again, otherwise, I will arrest you as the criminals who intruded on the residents!"

Hearing this, several people present were stunned.

The skinny man reacted and laughed: "Arrest me? Little guy, I think you are young and ignorant, you continue to talk nonsense, be careful I will give you directly to the guards."

"You don't have to, I am." Du Dian took out the guard medal with swords and swords, and said indifferently: "Just based on what you just said, I can sue you for slandering the guards and arrest you! As for the crime, I think about it, it is recorded in Article 7 of the law that if you maliciously slander a noble, you will be sentenced to three years in prison, and if you slander a guard, you will be sentenced to two years in prison, and if you attack a guard, you will be sentenced to death!"

"Which one do you want?" Du Di'an looked up at the two of them.

The fat middle-aged man and the thin man stared at the guard medal, their eyes widened with disbelief, and they were speechless for a long time.

The Jula couple couldn't help but be astonished when they saw this familiar medal. They quickly remembered the purpose of Du Di'an's three-year training. They looked at each other and saw the excitement and surprise in each other's eyes. I didn't expect Du Di'an to succeed!

"You, are you a guard?" The fat middle-aged man was still in disbelief. It was the first time he had seen such a small guard.

Du Dian said indifferently: "Are you questioning me?"

The fat middle-aged man hurriedly shook his head. Although he felt incredible, he still recognized the medal. Moreover, impersonating a guard was a serious crime, not as simple as beheading him directly.

"This is the first time I've seen such a small... such a young and promising guard." The fat middle-aged man laughed dryly.

Du Di'an said flatly: "This can only mean that you are not a real lord. There are many guards like me. Before reaching the age of sixteen, they will first join the nobles' guard team for training. After reaching the age, It will be transferred to guard the "Wall of Limits" and the giant wall. "The "wall of boundaries" he refers to is the high wall that separates each area, and among the nobles, it is called the "wall of rich and poor."

The fat middle-aged man looked a little embarrassed and said, "I, I am really the lord here. My grandfather used to be a great knight. He was sealed in this territory, but..." Having said this, he felt a little sad and didn't say any more. go down.

"It's just that this territory was given by the noble to your grandfather knight, and he is no longer there, so the territory also lost its legitimacy and was taken back. Of course, maybe the noble forgot to take it back, so you continue to use the lord's Self-identity." Du Di'an said indifferently: "But this is illegal, I think, if you disappear immediately, I can consider not pursuing it."

The fat middle-aged man and the thin man looked at each other, and immediately bent down and said, "Then we'll leave first." After that, he moved away from Du Di'an and fled away.

Before long, the carriage outside the door roared away in the pain of the whip.

Du Di'an just looked up at Jula and his wife. They haven't seen each other for three years. The corners of their eyes are a little wrinkled. Calculate their age. They are already thirty. About ten years old.

The Jula couple came back to their senses and looked at Du Di'an in amazement. They didn't expect that the trouble that had caused them to be devastated before was solved in just a few words from Du Di'an, and Gray said with joy: "Did you graduate successfully? My son is awesome! I didn’t expect that my Gray’s child would become a guard, haha, I will go to the factory tomorrow and talk to the workers, making them envious.”

Jula rolled his eyes at him, smiled and stroked Du Di'an's hair, and said, "You child, you are so tanned, you must have had a hard time in the past three years."

Du Dian smiled slightly and said, "It's nothing, but I won't be able to stay for long when I come back this time. I'll be on a mission in a few days, so I can't accompany you any more."

Jula was stunned for a moment, "Performing a mission? What mission, is it dangerous?"

"It's not dangerous, don't worry."

"That's good."

Gray smiled and said, "What danger can there be in being a guard? It's nothing more than walking around with the nobles. Now that the Holy See of Light is under the protection, how dare those evil demons show their faces."

Jula said angrily, "Just in case!"

Gray shook his head with a smile and said nothing.

That night, Jula prepared a very sumptuous dinner for Du Di'an to celebrate Du Di'an's return and becoming a guard. After the dinner, Du Di'an said to the two of them: "Auntie, I want to borrow some money, this time a little more."

Jula smiled and said, "Tell us what to borrow, how much do you want?"

"Ten silver coins." Du Dian thought for a while and said that the money should be enough to buy a lot of black powder raw materials. After all, he will go outside the giant wall next. In case of any danger, he has something to protect himself.
