Chapter 423: Someone robbed?

The sales trend of Dukang wine is very good, which has added a lot of income to Ye Shengtian. With this money, Ye Shengtian vigorously reclaimed wasteland and developed agriculture. Agriculture is the top priority. Only when agriculture develops well can more civilians be attracted. Developing the economy is not something that happens overnight, so Ye Shengtian has been busy for a few months before he is successful.

In order to better attract people to come and live in, Ye Shengtian reduced or exempted taxes, enclosed a lot of land for construction, and then sent people to lobby those big chambers of commerce to come and invest in more business. For the development of Lahasya Province, Ye Shengtian took great pains, and the people in the city saw it in their eyes and sweet in their hearts.

On the other hand, Ye Shengtian asked the Tsing Yi Club to collect enough slaves, especially the orcs, elves, and winged human races. Anyway, the human race only bought strong boys and young women. These slaves were transported to Lahasya Province in batches, and Ye Xiang personally managed them.

The first is to give them some sweetness, such as giving them food, changing into clean clothes, letting them bathe, and then giving them two months' wages in advance and letting them go out to play for two days. After that, they are assigned their work, so that they can live a comfortable and comfortable life. Men do heavy work, women do light work. The able-bodied will be sent to the barracks.

Lahasya Province has carried out a series of reform measures, and the results are remarkable. Soon the life of Lahasya Province has become richer than before, and the population has also increased a lot. Many merchants saw that this place was profitable, and they sent people to open stores to invest. In this way, Ye Shengtian's preliminary economic plan has achieved initial results.

Ji Xiaoli's suppression of the bandits also saw initial results, and the bandits fled wherever they went. At the beginning, those bandits didn't take Ji Xiaoli seriously, thinking that Ji Xiaoli was an unknown junior who was just a general who got along through connections, but soon they knew they were wrong. Ji Xiaoli slaughtered the three bandits in one breath within a week, and his momentum was unstoppable.

Among them, there are more than 5,000 bandits, and dozens of them are magicians. They are very arrogant and domineering in this area, specializing in looting the camps of the past business travelers. When he heard that the official army was coming to attack, the bandit leader didn't take it seriously, and said to his subordinate: "Don't panic, our cottage is built by the mountain, with a cliff in the back and a big river in front. They came here. It's the army and not the navy, and they don't have ships, so they can't get to shore, so eat and drink, brothers, don't let these officers and soldiers spoil the happiness of our brothers. It's very literary."

It turns out that this cottage is easy to defend and difficult to attack. There is a river in front of it and a cliff in the back. It can be said that one person guards the gate, and ten thousand people do not open it. Ji Xiaoli is a senior member of the Tsing Yi Association, and Yu Tsing Yi's cronies have naturally learned the method of cultivation. During the day, Ji Xiaoli asked his soldiers to camp and rest. At night, he came alone to the river to perform magical powers and built a wooden bridge over the river.

When they returned to the barracks, they let the soldiers wrap their horses' hoofs in cloth and came to the river with a soft sound. When they found that there was a wooden bridge by the river, one of the soldiers asked, "I came here during the day, and I don't know when. I haven't seen a lonely bridge here, what's going on now?"

Ji Xiaoli knew what was going on, but he couldn't tell the truth. Anyone who wanted to practice immortality had to swear a poisonous oath not to leak it. Hearing this soldier's question, Ji Xiaoli smiled and said, "It must be this band of bandits who have done so much evil, which annoyed the gods, so they cast spells to build bridges and help us to destroy them."

Everyone else nodded after listening, and there was no other explanation.

The army crossed the wooden bridge safe and sound, and after that, things were very simple. When the bandits saw the army suddenly attacked, they were caught off guard and were defeated. They were killed overnight. A small number of people fled.

After killing many bandits, those bandits realized that the official army is not so easy to mess with, and the smart bandits rolled up their clothes and went to other places to develop. The unwilling bandits fought guerrillas with Ji Xiaoli and hid everywhere. Few bandits could escape Ji Xiaoli's pursuit.

Ye Shengtian did not relax the law and order in the province despite Ji Xiaoli's campaign to suppress the bandits. First, let the city defense troops patrol every half an hour, and then set up a similar agency similar to the Huaxia Police on the other side. This agency is used to maintain peace and order, investigate cases and handle cases. This agency was named by Ye Shengtian as the Public Security Committee , in fact, it is the police department.

At the same time, a spy agency was also established. The personnel of this spy agency were selected from the Tsing Yi Association. Now they are only responsible for Ye Shengtian. They are scattered throughout Lahasya Province and transmit important information continuously every day. .

Ye Shengtian has reformed a lot, but many have not reformed, otherwise it will touch the interests of some nobles and be detrimental to governance. Officials should try their best to select capable people. Nobles can buy officials, but they just give you an official name without real power, which means they give you an opportunity to show off to others.

On this day, Ye Shengtian was drinking tea and chatting with Yu Qingyi in a small pavilion. As for the seven daughters, they have returned to the imperial capital, and they have not returned yet. Ye Shengtian didn't need to worry about their safety, even if all the experts from the gods and demons came out, they wouldn't do anything to the girls. In fact, Ye Shengtian already knew where the gods and demons were hiding. The two people lived on the moon, and they just happened to see each other and were neighbors.

"Master, how have you lived these days?" Yu Qingyi asked.

"Yes, this lord's mansion is very well built, but it is a bit luxurious. There are many people who have opinions from the ministers in the court. Some people even slandered my Ye family, saying that my Ye family rebelled, hehe, but the old guy Longren will not Believe it." Ye Shengtian smiled.

"Longren just believes, and he won't take anything against the Ye family, so he would rather not believe it." Yu Qingyi said.

"Hehe, you're right. My Ye family has the current power, and I really don't need to rebel, otherwise the throne would have been replaced by my Ye family." Ye Shengtian nodded.

Ye Shengtian is right. It is not difficult to win the throne with the power of the Ye family, but what about getting the throne? Ye Shengtian has never thought about being an emperor. He will leave sooner or later. It is not his character to be a small emperor here. . In order to develop the economic development of Lahasya Province, Ye Shengtian can be very busy, but fortunately, there are so many capable people to help.

Now that Lahasya Province has entered the orbit, Ye Shengtian can rest for a while, and the following things can be done by others. Now Ye Shengtian's task is to rest. Ye Shengtian has made another major breakthrough in his cultivation base a year ago, and has already broken through to the realm of the Holy Infant. Now, even Daluo Jinxian is only dead in front of Ye Shengtian.

That breakthrough was hard for Ye Shengtian to forget, because that time he only broke through by stealing Shangguan Yanyu. It turned out that Shangguan Yanyu was a rare divine body in the world of self-cultivation. The two are compatible with water and milk, thus helping Ye Shengtian break through to the realm of the Holy Infant. As soon as he broke through to the Holy Infant realm, Ye Shengtian's cultivation had skyrocketed. Now he has reached the peak of the Holy Infant's intermediate level. As long as he is given a little more time, he can break through to the later stage of the Holy Infant.

While the two were chatting while drinking tea, a guard hurried in, gave them a salute, and said, "Report to the lord, several businessmen came to report the case today, saying that they were robbed, and they want the lord to give them to them. They have a say."

"Robbery?" Ye Shengtian put down the teacup softly and muttered.

I didn't expect that there would be people who would dare to rob under my own governance, which is too shameful for me. After all, he is also the lord of this Lahasya province. If he doesn't give his own face, he is not slapping his own face. Some time ago, he sent Ji Xiaoli to suppress the bandits, and he achieved remarkable results. For this, Ye Shengtian rewarded him well, and gave him an elixir, which made Ji Xiaoli smile all day long.

Now that they have just rested for a while, these bandits have come out again, and they will not kill them all. It seems that they do not let themselves be relieved. In other words, Ye Shengtian's suppression of bandits during this period has offended many important officials in the court, because these bandits are more or less related to them.

These bandits were either supported by their backing, or the bandits sent money and goods to them and asked them to take care of it. But what they didn't expect was that when Ye Shengtian came to take charge of the lord, he did his best to suppress the bandits. Most of the bandits were wiped out, a few were incorporated, and some of them left their hometowns.

Now what Ye Shengtian is thinking about is to organize the troops again and then go to suppress the bandits, he must clear the bandits. I have made such an effort, but I can't let these black sheep be destroyed, otherwise I will cry.

Ye Shengtian thought of this, and a ruthless look flashed from the depths of his eyes.

"Robbery? Such trivial matters also come to trouble the lord, go, let the security forces in the city go, they must be wiped out, and don't let anyone go." Yu Qingyi said.

Ye Shengtian and the others live in Lahasya Province. The provincial capital is called Volna, which is the richest and safest area in the entire Lahasya province, and of course the most complex area. It was just the arrival of Ye Shengtian that made these forces fearful and did not dare to be blatant and arrogant.

What Yu Tsingyi said is not bad, just let the security forces in the city settle things like bandit suppression, and don't have to report everything to the lord's mansion, otherwise the lord will have so much time to deal with these things. Ye Shengtian had just finished working on Lahasya's development plan, and now he finally took a rest, so he disturbed Ye Shengtian again. Of course, Yu Qingyi was a little unhappy.
