Golden Fox with System

To say that Theo is not surprised would be a lie.

When he used divine sense, Theo realized that they had entered a formation. This was done without his noticing, perhaps because it was harmless to them.

"Want to stay a little longer and find out what\'s going on in this town?" Theo asked as he turned and looked at his wife and children.

Little Theo looked thoughtful. Looking around, he noticed the formation his dad spoke about. Even he could break this formation, but he wouldn\'t do it without knowing the real purpose of it. Looking at the people who live in this city, even those who came from villages looking for shelter...

"Dad, are we going to stay and help if possible?" Little Theo looked at him.

Little Yumi was not against what Theo said. Little Emma was neutral, while Yuki wanted to indulge her children.

"Okay, we\'ll stay in this town for a while then." Theo smiled a little.

The man walked away from Theo and his family. He thought they were crazy because the conversation they had didn\'t make any sense to him.

\'What do you mean, stay a little in this city, what do you mean formation? What are these crazy people talking about?\' After walking away, the man shook his head and sighed, swearing to himself that he wouldn\'t get involved with them in the future.

.

.

Finally making their way into the city, they realized it was an even bigger rush within the city walls.

People were running around, and there were even some well-dressed people sleeping in the street.

It was a hopeless situation.

Theo, Yuki, and the kids saw some stronger ones using ships and spacecraft to float around the city and possibly used them as a dormitory. There were even some with large ships with several rooms using it as a hotel.

After they traveled around town a bit, even ate at a random skewer stand, they fished out a lot of information.

50% tax was levied on those who trade in the city and do not live in the city, that is, those who live in a village and come to seek refuge.

Even the profits they made for the year in their villages were collected to enter the city. If they tried to deny and lie about how much they earned, they would do public execution.

Even city dwellers paid high taxes, reaching up to 47% of the total profit, during monster hordes.

These hordes of monsters can last up to 1 month, and the longest it ever lasted was 3 months.

Yuki commented, "The lord of this town is a great villain. He\'s such an asshole, charging such abusive taxes... No wonder there are people living on the street. They must not have the money to even be able to rent a place to live in the city at times like this."

"This isn\'t just abusive. There\'s something clearly wrong with it all." Theo didn\'t think it was something as simple as a super high tax.

His senses went in all directions, and he felt that a certain area of ​​the city was trying to prevent him from seeing and hearing what was happening.

"Hehee..." Theo let out a cold chuckle.

Rights? Maybe, he didn\'t even have to listen to others\' private conversations, but it wasn\'t like he cared, especially if there were so many innocent people suffering and his kids were seeing it.

Soon, what prevented him was broken like a drop of water falling into the ocean, without making much of a ripple, not alarming the owner of the formation that created it.

"Oh, that was silent," Yuki muttered. She didn\'t have the confidence to do the same.

.

.

"Lord Winner, here\'s what we found."

Winner glanced at the man with green hair and deep dark eyes, then turned his attention to the papers that had been placed on the table.

"This family went from store to store, wandering all over town, getting new information..." Winner was not enjoying this at all, and the more he read, the more veins appeared on his forehead and neck, "From the information I got from fat Franck, this couple said nonsense things, like going to other lands, out of reach of the monsters..."

*Bang!*

Winner slammed his fist down on the glass table, shattering it into a thousand pieces of glass.

"These bastards... They came from outside the barrier." Winner\'s chest rose and fell as anger showed on his face.

Breathing, trying to calm down. He starts tapping his fingers on the arm of the chair.

After thinking, he said, "Get someone to clean this mess and bring me a new table, but before that..." His eyes showed cruelty, "Make the Iron Fist brothers test the strength of this family, they are the strongest gangsters in town, and they do everything for money. Give them a little money to fight them. If this family dies... Whatever, but if not, we need to make them stand by me or kill them!"

It wasn\'t the first time this had happened. However, none of them looked as strong as this family of five. Otherwise, he would have already killed them to silence them.

\'They can\'t let others know that there are other habitable lands besides this...\' Winner had a bad taste in his mouth. The feeling this family gave him was not good.

"Yes, Lord Winner." After that, the man left.

.

.

Theo frowned and told Yuki and the kids what was going on.

"Worm!" Little Theo wanted to hit this Winner guy in the face.

Since Theo had a town, Little Theo knew about running a town, and he knew his dad was kind enough not to charge tax. But, even if he was going to charge, knowing the dad\'s personality, Little Theo knew that the most he would charge would be 5%.

The only thing he charged was for land sales. Which was not unreasonable since if he didn\'t, the lands would easily be monopolized by the same person. There was even a limit of land that a person or family could own.

It all went to the city\'s profits and helped make it the most developed city in the entire Arcane Planet, and it\'s preferred by companies.

The same was true even for those who wanted to get rich because, since it was a free city, they didn\'t need to pay taxes to any country. Thanks to that, the profits all went to them. Those who were poor before now lived the life of the rich. Those who were rich got richer.

As for Theo\'s profit, they went to everything he built in the city. He knew that if he taxed them, he could make a lot more profits, but honestly? It would not be much for him, so there was no reason for him to do that. The formation he created across the fallen star island completely protected them from any danger. Even so, the biggest reason he created this was to protect the ones he loves. The rest was just a happy accident.

One good thing that came out of this is that the residents were constantly improving the city. They didn\'t feel at a loss doing this, as they felt they were part of the city, so by themselves, they created the best highways, pavements, and buildings to have better housing.
