dandy city lord

Chapter 6 Fudge and intimidation!
Yang Hu waved lazily at Qing Kui: "Check out the belongings."

Dozens of soldiers began to get busy, rummaging through the items confiscated like a hill.

Money, gold and silver jewellery, house deeds were sorted out and put aside, Yang Hu walked to the side, picked up a house deed and looked at it, with a few sneers on his face.

Just looking at these, he can also guess why his city lord's mansion is so desolate.

It is really a miracle that the former city lord who only knows how to live a lustful and licentious life can bring his family down to this extent!

The soldiers picked up more and more items, and the collected belongings were full of two big boxes. Seeing Yang Hu's increasingly gloomy face, Qing Kui cried out inwardly.
Sure enough, Yang Hu with a sullen face grabbed the dozens of house deeds and threw them to Qingkui: "Sell the money into cash. By the way, inform the merchants in the city that the tax will be increased by [-]%. There will be no more price in my city. Even if the goods are transported to other cities, I can also send troops to escort them."

Hou Qingkui by his side shivered suddenly when he heard that, the tax rate in the city is already ten to four, plus [-]%, those merchants are still eating farts!
But the latter thing about sending troops to protect the merchants was beyond his expectation.Lord City Lord, isn't this a way to send troops to escort, trying to swallow up the merchant's bones?
Want him to send troops to escort?Who would believe it!
But he didn't dare to make a sound, took the deed from Yang Hu's hand, and led a few soldiers to the gate of the mansion.

Looking down at the confiscated property, Yang Hu explained to Qing Kui without raising his head: "Tell them, don't dislike my high tax. I will keep them safe forever."

Qing Kui, who was stepping out the door, almost fell down, his face twitched, and he cursed secretly in his heart: "Keep your life safe, you bastard."

He quickened his steps a few steps, and rushed out of the city lord's mansion with his brothers, not daring to listen to the absurd words that the city lord said.

Yang Hu had already seen the disdain hidden on the faces of the soldiers around him, and couldn't help but snorted again.

If you fight against the outside world, you must first settle down inside!In my current situation, not to mention that the soldiers in the barracks haven't been dealt with yet, it's just that my house is in a mess. If I don't clean up these things first, how can I have a chance?

With these guys who can escape in battle, he will have a chance?What an international joke.

When the next three years come, I must lead my troops to the Tongtian Tower, and I must take my first step firmly and make a blockbuster. I, Yang Hu, are not a soft persimmon to pinch.

In fact, it's not just the soldiers who look bad, those servants who have just had their homes raided and have nothing are even worse. Thinking about the cost increase of the city lord, they are full of fear, and they don't know their fate yet!
Yang Hu looked at the terrified servants with disgust, and waved to the soldiers guarding nearby: "Drive them out, drive them all out of Linzhou City Mansion, and never come back again. Yang Baogui and the accountant pushed out and hacked .”

As soon as he gave an order, those servants immediately collapsed to the ground and began to cry and howl. The soldiers who received the order from the city lord, regardless of these, dragged, pulled, punched and kicked, in a desolate Amidst the shouts, the servants were driven out of the mansion.

After getting rid of these rubbish things, Yang Hu hadn't been in a hurry to clean up for a moment, and there was another burst of heart-piercing cries from outside the mansion...

Needless to say, it must be the order issued by Qingkui that excited the merchants in the city.

Yang Hu frowned, stretched out his hand to rub his face, and muttered in a low voice, he walked towards the gate: "These things don't make people worry."

Yang Hu, who strode out of the city lord's mansion, looked at the crowd crowded in front of the whole city lord's mansion, and then looked at Qing Kui and the others who were pretending to block the merchants, he sneered.

When the merchants saw the city lord coming out, their crying stopped abruptly.

With a flick of his legs, Yang Hu jumped onto the statue of the alien beast in front of the mansion, squatted down, and looked down at the merchants with a full face: "Are you dead? Why are you crying in front of my mansion?"

One of the bold merchants pushed out the crowd and wailed at Yang Hu who was squatting on the statue: "My lord! The more than [-] merchants in Lincheng prefecture have already contributed [-]% of their profits to you. Add another [-]%. But I can’t survive! Please forgive me, my lord!”

"If you can't live, you will die!" Yang Hu, who was full of doves, waved his hand, shouted violently, and interrupted the merchant's cry arbitrarily: "Linzhou City Mansion needs your contribution now. The order has just come down, you Dare to come and make trouble? Do you really want to live?"

Yang Hu pointed at the timid merchants: "I will give you a place to do business. My city, the soldiers will keep you safe for the rest of your life, what are you talking about?"

"After the tax is raised to ten to five, as long as it is Lao Tzu's city, your tax will not be raised again, and when you transport goods to other cities, I will send troops to escort you. You just earn a little less, but you enjoy peace. protection. What else can’t you figure out?”

"Protect us, even you, the good-for-nothing city lord, can protect us?" A woman's voice jumped out of Yang Hu's heart.

He has already activated the garbage skill given by the city system, and now it is in handy, he can listen to the voices of these people.

Seeing that the faces of the merchants below became hesitant, he waved his hand: "My city soldiers guarantee the safety of your goods and personal safety. You just paid a little more money in taxes and don't need to pay extra. He Le Instead of?"

Yang Hu sneered, and drew a big cake for them: "Your abacus is only based on immediate benefits. If I have ten, one hundred, one thousand cities in the future, how much can your goods earn in a day?" ?”

Unfortunately, his words backfired!

With the traits and influence of the city lord remaining in the hearts of the merchants, how is this possible? I am afraid that the city lord wants to swallow up everyone's property, and that is the real idea, right?
Thinking of this question at the same time, the merchants below panicked, each of them lowered their heads to avoid Yang Hu's wolf-like eyes, and shuddered.

There is only one thought in their minds now, to go home immediately, pack up their things, and move out of Lincheng Prefecture to find another place.

There are not many profit-seeking women in the merchants, and most of the money in the merchants is also in the hands of their own mothers-in-law. Yang Hu has already heard the voices of these women clearly through the garbage skills bestowed on him by the city system.

He looked at the merchants with his eyes, and sneered: "You remember what I, Yang Hu, said today. The tax increase this time is to protect you, and it will not increase again in the future. As long as it is in my city, you all Pay according to the taxes set by each city. But..."

When Yang Hu said this, the dove in his eyes was very strong, and he said to the merchants speculatively: "I have written down your appearance, as long as you move out of Lincheng Prefecture today, I can't guarantee that you will leave my city." You are safe. And never to enter my city again."

Taking advantage of his arrogance and arrogance, Yang Hu gave these profit-seeking guys a warning, and Yang Hu didn't give the merchants a chance to speak and argue. There are so many people, he doesn't want to mess things up.

After speaking, Yang Hu glanced at the merchants below, watching their reactions with a sullen face, while listening to the innermost thoughts of the merchants' wives.

"This waste city lord, why is he so strong today?"

"Yeah! In the past, as long as we made a fuss, he would back down. This is the case."

"I have to call the old man home to discuss what to do."

"This useless city lord dares to threaten us. I'll let the old guy move out when I get home. After we leave, let's see if he can still be majestic for a few days."

... A series of chaotic messages jumped out of Yang Hu's mind.

Yang Hu, who looked at the merchants with contempt, sneered in his heart: "It's easy to leave, but it's not so easy to take the goods with you."

He waved his big hand to Qing Kui and other soldiers standing on the sidelines, and ordered in a domineering and cold voice: "You take a team of brothers and take note of their appearance, and prepare a case for anyone who wants to leave. If you are unkind, don't blame me for being unrighteous." , People can leave immediately, but the things in the shops in the city can't leave, just treat me as your support for my Lincheng state capital. No one can take away a stitch."

"Drive them away. Let me hear the howling again, and you guys will be punished!" Yang Hu glared at Qing Kui and the other soldiers, then turned around and jumped off the stone sculpture and walked into the mansion.

Behind him, there are merchants who are scared to death!
Leave, nothing is left!If you don't leave, you will still be exploited by this useless city lord... This will make you alive!
After some effort, the mournful merchants were still dispersed by Qing Kui and the others from the front of the city lord's mansion, and each went home to plan their way out.

That night, the two merchants disregarded the city lord's warning, and led the shop assistants to quietly empty out the goods in the shop, and went out of the city overnight. Before walking half a mile, they encountered a group of robbers.

A dozen people were all killed, and the goods were robbed...

Everyone knows that even if the Lincheng state capital is only the lowest bronze-level city, it is impossible for robbers to appear in that kind of place. As for who did it, they can't say clearly, and each of them is more and more afraid of this useless city lord's method.

When the lights came on, the hall of the city lord's mansion was brightly illuminated. The city lord, who was called trash by the people in the city, was looking at a piece of paper marking the location of his Linzhou city mansion under the flickering candlelight.

Yang Hu made a good plan, most of the affairs in his mansion were settled, and the merchants who were the main force in the city were also settled. Then, in addition to the people in the city, the soldiers in the battalion and his city were stable. thing.

Looking down at the map, Yang Hu's face became calm and dignified without the hostility and arrogance before. His tiger eyes were flickering, and he was concentrating on the city's properties, range, mountains, and roads marked on the map.

Yang Hu even had the illusion that he had returned to that huge city made of steel and concrete, and was making an assassination plan for his next target.

Yang Hu leaned over the map, combined with all the things in his memory, looked up at the dark night outside the lobby, with a hint of ferocity on his face: "It seems that this is also a place that cannibalize people without spitting out their bones!"
