After ten years of sharpening the sword, one sword shocked the sky!

Chapter 110 [Small test, governance of Zhaoxia City]

"Your city master Zhaoxia has been captured."

"Pass down the order of King Xia, the soldiers of Zhaoxia City put down their weapons and don't kill them!"

Cui Hao stared at the soldiers who wanted to rush over again, and spoke loudly, and under the blessing of vigor, his voice almost spread throughout Zhaoxia City.

These soldiers all knew that they were going to surrender the city to King Xia today, and their fighting spirit was not high at first. Coupled with the destructive performance of these peerless masters at this moment, they didn't want to seek death even more.

After hearing Cui Hao's shout, they all put down their weapons obediently, and knelt down on the spot with their heads in their hands to show their sincerity.

Soon, the people at the gate of the city were dispersed and controlled, and the army began to enter Zhaoxia City in an orderly manner, controlled the gate of the city, and then began to spread towards the entire city.

After a while, the entire city was taken over by the army.

Many civil servants began to post Anmin notices, preaching the policies of King Lin Linxia's army.

"Fair, just, the army and the people live in harmony, and Qiu has committed no crime."

"Kill people to pay for their lives, debts to pay back money, everyone has clothes to wear, and everyone has food to eat."

This is the basic value of Xia Wangjun.

It can also be regarded as a simple ruling program that is advertised to many ordinary people with little culture.

After completing the control of the entire city, the next step is naturally to search for loot.

First of all, the Xie family's wealth accumulated over the years, as well as the material warehouse used to maintain the operation of Zhaoxia City, were the first to be controlled.

The next step is to launch an intelligence investigation, asking the masses to report and report, to see if there are big dogs and profiteers in the fish and meat town who usually do evil.

If there is, according to the seriousness of the crime, it should be fined and killed.

After the order is rectified, the military control can be released next, and Zhaoxia City can be restored to its previous appearance.
-
At the beginning, the residents of Zhaoxia City were panic-stricken. They didn't believe a single word of the policies and ruling program promoted by King Xia's army.

In the past years, their ancestors have heard and seen many similar beautiful policies, but unfortunately none of them have been truly implemented.

The law of the jungle and the struggle to survive are the eternal themes of this era.

Down to the ordinary people, up to the big households and many warriors are worried about the chaos of King Xia's army.

If this is the case, then they are doomed.

After all, King Xia's army's combat strength cannot be resisted even if everyone is added together, they can only be slaughtered.

As a result, everyone later discovered that what Anmin said in the announcement was actually true.

In addition to not being allowed to go out for the time being, these soldiers actually did nothing wrong with the people. They camped outside the city without occupying the houses of the people, and they also controlled the former soldiers of Zhaoxia City.

Even some low-income or no-income people such as Lifu, children, and beggars who were confined at home and lost their source of income and began to go hungry.

The official warehouse in Zhaoxia City was opened, and some food was boiled into gruel and distributed. Although they couldn't eat enough, at least they wouldn't starve to death.

This action has greatly reassured the hearts of hundreds of thousands of residents in Zhaoxia City, allowing them to stay at home and cooperate with King Xia's management without thinking wildly.

But what happened after that was even more unexpected by many residents of Zhaoxia City.

Some wealthy households, profiteers, and those who used to do evil among the soldiers of Zhaoxia City, the gangsters who bullied the people, were successively murdered by officials of King Xia's army to pay their debts in the next period of time. The universal value of paying back money is on trial.

Under the eyes of everyone, some ordinary people who were bullied by these people accused these people of their crimes with blood and tears, which aroused the empathy and anger of many people.

After the crime was read out, these people were killed as they deserved and punished as they deserved.

This measure instantly greatly improved the recognition of the people of Zhaoxia City towards King Xia, an outsider, and allowed him to win the support of the overwhelming majority of the people in this newly occupied city.

All the residents of Zhaoxia City feel that they have seen some light.

I feel that under the leadership of King Xia, maybe we will get real fairness and justice, and live a stable life.

And at this time, it was already the fifth day since Zhaoxia City was occupied by the army.

After that, the military control ended, and Zhaoxia City returned to normal order.

Merchants resumed their business activities, and people started their own lives.

But at this time, people discovered even greater changes.

The first is the entrance fee, which was cancelled.

In the past, if people wanted to enter and exit Zhaoxia City, they had to pay a fee of one penny to enter the city, but now they can enter and exit as they please.

Of course, if you want to transport goods into the city for sale, you need to pay taxes.

However, those merchants who do business near Zhaoxia City found that the tax rate is much lower. Commonly used daily necessities such as grain and salt are subject to a tax rate of [-]% to [-]%. Medicinal materials and other items are also taxed at a rate of [-]%.

In the past, the tax rate for these things was at least twice as high as it is now.

In the city, there are also clear rules and regulations for the taxation of various shops. Xia Wang officials all collect according to the rules and regulations, and absolutely do not take a penny more.

There are many more soldiers patrolling the streets. As long as these shops pay taxes normally, if they encounter some troubles such as someone stealing and extorting, they can ask the patrol soldiers for help.

Many unemployed vagrants and beggars in the city also have new jobs of their own.

All the idlers around Zhaoxia City were swept away.

They were organized, the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled to clean up the many garbage and dust in the city, making the whole city clean and tidy.

The older young and strong are engaged in production, starting to plant the farmland outside Zhaoxia Mountain, and there are still surplus manpower to start building public facilities such as water channels and roads, and more people are called to the mine. Mining some minerals.

The work of these people is not free of charge. In addition to being able to eat enough, they also have a salary of no more or less, which is paid on a daily basis.

Such a mechanism has fully mobilized the subjective initiative of all the people and made them work extremely hard.

After getting the money, it is natural to consume, and the sales of various daily necessities ushered in a new peak.

Under such a mechanism, it didn't take long for the entire Zhaoxia City to regain its past prosperity, and even began to become more prosperous.

This is where commerce and capital flows come into play.

After preliminarily governing Zhaoxia City, Lin Lin began to spread the army and many officials to the surrounding towns and villages centered on Zhaoxia City.

What they have to do is to spread the order in Zhaoxia City.
