These two men were victims of the blood tax system.
Feng Wu was curious. What did the exploited people of the Dongsang Kingdom think of the blood tax system?
In order to truly become a citizen of Dongsang, Feng Wu had to integrate with them and understand their thoughts and opinions. Therefore, she would try to learn more about them whenever she had the chance.
Feng Wu listened attentively to their conversation.
Lou asked Chow, "Have you thought about what you'll do after you leave the army?"
Chow was silent for a while and smiled bitterly. "Who knows? Anyway, we've saved up some money over the years. We can always buy a few acres of fertile land and live comfortably."
Lou said, "It's a pity that we're only 40 years old. There's still so much time after we retire. The money we've saved up is still not enough."
Chow smiled. "There will be enough if we don't spend too much."
