Starting Today, I’ll Work as a City Lord

"My lord, there are too many orcs in the territory. If you don't think of a solution, the wheat purchased from Xiyang City won't last long." Fox Maiden Ryan said loudly.

Recently, she has been tortured by the orcs and wheat in the territory to lose her hair, especially the riots in the territory from time to time.

"I'm thinking, don't rush." ​​Bella shouted in distress, her usual indifference had disappeared, and she was rubbing her brows with a headache.

"My lord, I suggest driving them away. Leaving too many orcs in the territory will only hinder the development of the territory." Ryan said with a serious face.

"No, I don't agree." Obi shouted loudly, "They are all orcs and our companions, how can we drive them away?"

"Obi Knight, can you get a lot of wheat?" Ryan widened his eyes and shouted unwillingly, "If this continues, even you will starve."

"I... will grab it." Obi hesitated and said, not very confident.

"Steal? Whose? Are you planning to rob His Excellency Liu Feng's goods? Don't you feel ashamed?" Ryan sneered.

"..." Obi was silent.

Thinking of the embarrassment when facing Liu Feng before, he couldn't help lowering his head.

"Tat Tat Tat..."

Tees stepped in, making the intense atmosphere a little bit more relaxed.

"Okay, let's go down." Bella smiled reluctantly, looking at Tees with dark brown vertical eyes, she didn't want the Horn Girl to know too much trouble.

"Yes." Obi and Ryan saluted and prepared to leave.

"Don't go yet." Tess said, and stepped to sit next to Bella.

"Is there anything for them to do?" Bella asked curiously, feeling that she owed Tess.

From the descriptions of Ryan and Obi, she learned about the prosperity of Xiyang City, and Disi could have enjoyed good things in Xiyang City, but now she is suffering here, and she can't even let go of her three meals.

"Yes." Tess nodded affirmatively, her face became serious, and she picked up the momentum she had when she was arresting prisoners in Xiyang City, and said in a deep voice, "Eldest sister, why don't you punish the people outside?"

"This..." Bella was at a loss for words, what could she do? There are more and more people. It was alright at the beginning, but it couldn't be cured at all later.

"Miss Tees, the main reason is that we don't have enough manpower and food." Ryan said to Bella.

"Insufficient manpower? There are so many people outside waiting to eat and drink for nothing." Tess turned her head to look at Bella, and asked with a serious face, "Could it be that the eldest sister has to support them for nothing?"

"But if you drive them away, Lord Bella's reputation will be rotten, and no one will believe what Lord Bella says in the future." Obi also made a sound to relieve the siege.

"But what I heard outside was complaining, complaining about not having enough to eat, lying on the ground complaining, and wanting to stretch out my clothes and open my mouth." Tess spoke louder and louder.

"This...how is it possible?" Bella's eyes widened in disbelief, "Are they complaining that I treat them badly?"

"Yes." Tess nodded affirmatively. She remembered a sentence the young master said, and said, "Don't pay blindly, that will make those people take it for granted. In the end, if you don't pay, they will resent you instead."

"..." Bella opened her mouth, turned her head to look at Ryan and Obi, saw that both of them lowered their heads, and immediately knew what Tees said was true.

"Sister, didn't the young master say that you can buy saltpeter? You send those people to dig ore for wheat, so that the territory can also have an income." Disti suggested.

The topic of digging saltpeter was mentioned when she first came to the territory, but she was rejected by Bella. She thought that the orcs should not be allowed to work hard to dig ore, and they could grow wheat to achieve self-sufficiency. It's just word of mouth.

"Can he really buy ore? You must know that the ore in that area is easy to mine." Bella thought about this question seriously for the first time.

"The young master said that it is possible." Tees replied without thinking.

"You..." Bella looked at Tees helplessly. The horned girl who used to admire her was gone, and now she became someone else's fan girl.

Her dark brown vertical eyes narrowed, and she returned to her cold look, and ordered to Obi and the others, "Drive those free eaters to mine ore, and receive wheat according to the amount of ore they dig."

"Yes." Obi replied respectfully.

"My lord, what if they don't go?" Ryan asked quickly.

"Drive away, I don't raise people who eat and drink for nothing here." Bella Yang waved his hand, full of murderous intent, "Troublemakers, kill!"

"Yes." Ryan's face beamed with joy. As long as she said this, she would dare to kill those bastards.

Obi sighed in his heart. Based on his understanding of Ryan's dark personality, many people must be in trouble.

Chapter 0697 alien version of cosmetics.

In Xiyang City's study room, An Li, Nicole, and Princess Lucy are all busy with their work.

An Li is dealing with government affairs, and now Xiyang City has hundreds of government affairs, large and small, for her to oversee, and there are dozens of them every day, especially when Liu Feng and Mina are not around.

"These people just haven't seen the world, and things like this happen every day." An Li was impatient and couldn't help complaining.

"What's wrong?" Nicole put down her abacus and flicked her wrist.

She manages the finances now, and every time she checks the bills of some stores and customs duties to see if there are any fakes.

"It's not that those people who just came here, especially those noble ladies, run to the gold coin supermarket every day, almost leveling the threshold." An Li made an indistinct sound with the tip of her pen in her mouth.

"Isn't this a good thing?" Princess Lucy put down her pen and stopped thinking about new novels. She has been thinking about new novels for the past few days.

Hearing the conversation between the two, she couldn't help but add that she admired An Li and Nicole very much, and felt that they were much better than her.

An Li manages so many things in Xiyang City, and she can manage them in an orderly manner; Nicole has calculated all the bills and can make very careful forms.

Comparing with herself, it seems that she can only write novels, except for her princess status, there seems to be nothing special.

"A good thing is a good thing, but they are almost living in the supermarket now. Now the gold coin supermarket is full of people, and the shelves are empty." An Li said speechlessly. It was the first time she understood that when a woman is crazy, there is nothing like a man. It's over.

Those noble ladies are a group of shrews, no, it should be said that they are a group of rascals, they are thick-skinned, they don't say anything harsh, they just hang on.

"Okay, the young master is coming back. When the young master comes back, they will have to leave after the meeting." Nicole reassured.

She knows that the goods are not insufficient, but are accumulating. The young master is warming up the market, giving people the impression that there are few goods, so that the mass shipments in the future will not lower the price.

"I don't know where the young master is?" An Li pouted, propping her chin with her hands, not even in the mood to change the government affairs.

The good news came seven or eight days ago, and she was so excited that she stayed up all night. Five days ago, those captives were also accepted by Xiyang City. The knights were sent to mine, and the nobles were all imprisoned.

And four days ago, there was another good news that the fourth prince had been captured; since that day, everyone in Xiyang City has been honest, and since that day, more and more nobles have arrived in Xiyang City. All the nobles who could come to the land came.

Now if I accidentally step on someone's foot in the city, the other person may be the lord of a small town, and the other person is still kind, afraid of offending the people in the castle, or Liu Feng.

Taking down the city of Somalia and capturing the fourth prince, she knew that the young master's reputation had reached the peak in the west, and no city lord dared to make Liu Feng upset.

"Soon, it should be just a day or two." Nicole said softly.

"I don't want to change the government affairs anymore." An Li closed the notepad and leaned back on the back of the chair like a boneless one.

She looked at the smiling Nicole, and the more she looked at her, the more she pursed her lips. She found that Nicole was getting more and more beautiful, her cheeks were less youthful and more charming. She looked like an intellectual big sister.
