At this time, there were nearly [-] civilians from the whole city gathered in the square. The civilians who were outside the city before have also entered the city one after another in the past few days.
The commoners were all eagerly waiting for Liu Feng's speech. They no longer asked the city lord to send someone to drive them to listen to the speech, as before.
As soon as Liu Feng's announcement came out, they came to listen to the speech spontaneously. With such a good city lord, it was too late for them to love him.
It was already around ten o'clock in the morning when Liu Feng got on the high platform. He looked at the surging heads, hair of various colors, and eyes, which made him a little nervous.
After coming to this world for more than a month, Liu Feng found out that he is the only one here with black hair and black pupils. Others either have black hair with green eyes or yellow hair with black pupils...
Mina stood beside Liu Feng, her long and slender fingers under her sleeves were holding a few sabers, her eyes sharply glanced around, and any actions that endangered the young master would be thrown by her with a saber.
Even if the surrounding area has been alerted by the Wolf Warriors special team, Mina does not dare to relax her mind, the young master is her and An Li's hope.
Liu Feng raised his hand and pressed it, and the commoners who were talking about them all quieted down and waited obediently to listen to the lecture.
"My lords, I am your lord, Baron Liu Feng, and the city lord of Xiyang City. I have called everyone here today because I have three things to announce."
Liu Feng was a little nervous at first, but after he started, he immediately entered the state.
"Everyone should know what happened a few days ago. Those unscrupulous grain merchants raised the price of wheat by several copper coins before the autumn harvest, and recklessly harvested everyone's copper coins."
"Even if everyone will starve to death, the unscrupulous grain merchants will continue to raise the price of wheat. They only care about their copper coin income, and they don't care about everyone's life or death."
Having said that, Liu Feng looked at the hated people below and knew that the atmosphere he wanted had already been achieved.
"Everyone knows that because I want to change Xiyang City, I recruit everyone to help me with the work. Because the City Lord's Mansion does not have many copper coins, there are only some remaining wheat, and the wheat can only be paid to everyone as a salary."
When these words fell, many civilians cheered.
"Lord Lord is a good noble!"
"We like a city master like you."
"Lord Liu Feng, just leave the work to us, and anyone who is lazy will be beaten to death."
Liu Feng looked at the excited civilians and knew that it was time for dinner. After waving his hand to calm everyone down, he said in a low voice, "Just because everyone can receive wheat as a salary from me, those unscrupulous grain merchants will not be able to sell the high-priced wheat. Get out and they blame me for everything."
"Even, such a black-hearted grain merchant actually wants to murder a nobleman and make everyone lose their jobs, and then they can go to them to buy high-priced wheat, coarse wheat for six copper coins per pound."
In the crowd, there were bursts of exclamations. Everyone was too impressed with the high price of wheat. For six copper coins per pound of wheat, few families could eat it for a few days.
"What? They actually dare to murder a noble, or a good noble like the Lord of the City???"
"Damn, a black-hearted grain merchant, who dares to murder Mr. Liu Feng, it's abominable."
"My lord, hang all those grain merchants, let them be punished, dig out their black hearts, let the wild dogs devour them, and be a piece of shit in the next life."
"Yes! Hang them."
"Hang them!!!"
The commoners all shouted in unison, and Niu Ben, who was beside him, made a gesture below, and immediately someone took the six grain merchants in black cloth bags to the gallows.
Liu Feng wanted to use public execution to establish the majesty of his city lord.
Chapter 0050 The right to buy and sell wheat.
Six grain merchants were put on the gallows, and the executioners put noose around their necks.
The faces of the grain merchants were ashen. The ghosts knew what they had experienced last night. Instead, they felt that the noose around their necks was a relief. They would rather die than go back to the dark and damp punishment room.
There are three kinds of executions in this world. One is hanging, which is hanging.
Then there is the burning at the stake, where people are tied to a cross and then burned to death.Of course, the last one is beheading.
"Bah! Deserving it, you black-hearted grain merchants will have today."
"That is, bah, you can't earn copper coins, but you dare to murder the Lord of the City. You really deserve to die."
The civilians scolded one after another, and those who were bolder and more willing smashed their shoes out.
In fact, what killed the grain merchants was the last point, that is, they wanted to murder Liu Feng.
If it's just high-priced wheat, Liu Feng can't say anything. They just sell wheat formally, but the price is higher. Whoever lets them have wheat, and there is no such thing as a price bureau in this world, whoever controls the grain has the right to speak.
But people's greed killed them. Even if there was no murder charge, Liu Feng would make it difficult for them to live. It was just that before the start, the grain merchant chose to murder Liu Feng.
Niu Ben was holding a roll of sheepskin, and now the City Lord’s Mansion used paper, and the sheepskin roll was only used for important decisions, or occasions like today’s trial.
"...These six people have been tried by Lord Liu Feng, and the following are their charges, one for disrupting market order, two for murdering nobles, three...four... Hereby, sentenced to death and executed by hanging."
This is a foreign version of an open judicial judgment. Of course, if the grain merchants don't keep their mouths shut, this trial may not be so quiet.
There was endless fear in the eyes of the fat grain merchant. Tears were like brooks, his nose was full of snot, and his nostrils kept expanding.
Why is this happening?I don't want to die!The grain merchants shouted in their hearts, the life they enjoyed has just begun, why is this happening.
The grain merchants looked at Liu Feng with hatred. They were all nobles like this madman. If it wasn't for him, maybe he wouldn't have to die.
Lord Baron Omar will avenge us, all the wheat is his, he will not let this Liu Feng go!
"implement!"
"implement!!"
"implement!!!"
Three executions, one higher than one, and in the end, all six grain merchants were hanged to death.
