After the wedding, the vigorous Chengbei purge campaign was quickly launched.

More than 200 black cavalry soldiers plus 100 servants of Lei Ye were all stationed in the black market in the north of the city, and under the coordination of Rigana, many forces that were not stubborn were cleansed.

Naturally, the means of cleansing must be both soft and hard, after all, these people can also bring countless wealth to the city of plenty, and they must not be offended to death.

So Lei Ye issued countless blank checks, such as how many square meters of shops will be given to you after the successful construction of the north of the city, the lord's guard is about to be reorganized, and you can be incorporated into the guard to eat imperial food and so on.

Lei Ye didn't lie, these are all to be implemented in the future, except that the construction of the north of the city takes a long time, the reorganization of the lord's guard is imperative.

Under the means of carrots and sticks, 80% of the forces in the black market in the north of the city agreed to withdraw, and have already begun to act.

What surprised Lei Ye the most was that the old Bill's blacksmith shop was actually the property of Duke Edmund, and the other party said in the letter: "This time to give you face for the boy, remember to leave me a few shops in the best location, and they should be finely decorated." ”

What else could Renard say, he could only reluctantly agree.

Two weeks later, all the major forces in the north of the city were cleared.

If you don't go, you can't go, because the black cavalry has blocked the periphery of the black market, and no one is allowed to go out, and the mercenaries who come to trade dare to offend them can only leave in a huff.

Since there is no business, there is no need for these forces to stay here, and even the Blood Knight Mercenary Group admits it, where do they dare to argue with Count Heidi.

Of course, there are also many stubborn people who try to compete with force, but they are cut half to death and thrown out of the city of plenty.

Those who dared to take revenge with grudges were all sent to the minerals to eat soil.

Next is the exciting task of rebuilding the north of the city, the construction plan and design drawings have been prepared a few days ago, anyway, it is not a high-rise building, as long as the roads are clear, and there are no problems with drainage and garbage removal.

Before the construction, Renard decided to clean up the slum as well, and he was really upset by the mess there.

As long as they are willing to rectify, they will be given a subsidy of 50 silver coins per household, and they will also be resettled, and the strong laborers can join the construction team to help with the work, and the price will be calculated according to ten copper plates per day, including food and housing.

After the notice was posted, it immediately caused a sensation throughout the whole process.

"The lord shall rebuild the city of plenty, and shall recruit three thousand strong laborers, and pay ten copper plates a day. "Really, let's go and see!" "Hurry up, brothers, the opportunity to make money has arrived!"

Just two hours after the notice was posted, the gates of the town hall were crowded with people.

There are only 3,000 strong laborers recruited, and there are 60,000 or 70,000 refugees in the city of plenty, who have long been hungry.

"Choose me, choose me, I have a lot of strength, I can do any job. "Choose me, I have a craft, my family is an ancestral stonemason. "I know how to carpenter, and I can do brickwork. ”“......”

The staff in charge of recruitment at the city hall continued to persuade with simple loudspeakers: "Don't worry, don't worry, please line up first, not whoever comes first will be selected, we want to choose the best of the best......"

However, this is useless at all, the people who should be squeezed are still squeezed, no matter what you choose from the best, Lao Tzu will report first, after all, it is a big matter to fill your stomach. ”

The chaos lasted for half a day, and Heidi had to send guards to maintain order, and the situation improved.

She stood on the second floor of the Lord's Mansion and looked at the crowd in the direction of the city hall in the distance, with a helpless expression on her face: "Is this the good idea you have in mind, my city hall was almost demolished by refugees." ”

Renard teased Alex and replied with a smile: "Isn't it that it hasn't been demolished yet, you should be happy that they are so active in wanting to work." ”

Alex is the name of Renard's eldest son, which was obtained by Hammidon, and the name of a hero of the Alechoz dynasty is the same, and Lei Ye knows that this old guy has no culture and can't come up with such a nice name.

"Happy?" Heidi was a little depressed: "That's all money, do you know how much it costs us a day to do this?"

Renard roughly calculated in his mind: "If you only count the labor cost, it's not much, about five gold coins a day." ”

"Not much?" Heidi was speechless, "That's a whole five gold coins!"

What a good girl who is a thrifty housekeeper, Renard thought so, and then said indifferently: "It's only five gold coins, and it doesn't cost you any money, according to my plan, it will cost at least 100,000 gold coins to build this city completely." ”

When Heidi heard the number of 100,000 gold coins, she almost fainted: "That's our money." ”

"Do you finally admit that we are one?" Renard couldn't help but quip, and immediately handed Alex to Serena, stepped forward and patted her on the shoulder to soothe, "Money is our money, and the city is our city." ”

Lei Ye's tone was helpless: "If you don't do this, you still plan to raise them for nothing, if the food is not enough, these refugees may really tear down the city hall." ”

He gently took the other party into his arms, looked at the crowd in the distance and said, "Don't worry, there will be a steady stream of supplies and gold coins transported here, building a city of abundance is only the first step in my plan, and I will build two acropolis around me next." ”

"Acropolis?" Heidi opened her mouth in surprise, "Is it necessary?"

Renard's expression was silent, and he grabbed the other party's arm and suddenly used some force: "I hope the situation will not deteriorate to that point." ”

The reason why Lei Ye's attitude towards the demon plague changed was because Duke Edmund had discussed this matter with him, and according to the other party's words: "This demon disaster may spread to the entire northern continent, and no one will be spared, let alone stay out of it. ”

Renard believed that the other party would not deliberately scare him, after all, he was not a three-year-old, and the other party was not the kind of person who could not talk but have a brain.

Hearing his words, Heidi's expression was a little worried: "I have heard from the merchants who come and go that there are demons in other parts of the kingdom, many villages and towns have been destroyed, and people have been displaced. ”

She leaned closer to Lei Ye, her eyes were a little confused: "This demon disaster seems to be several times more serious than twenty years ago. ”

Immediately after, she raised her head and asked, "Do you know that your cousin Grace is stationed in Four Leaves Village with hundreds of cavalry." ”

Renard blinked a few times: "It seems that the kingdom has noticed the unusual nature of this demonic disaster. ”

He took a deep breath and said with a smile, "Then we just need to do our best to do our own thing, and let His Majesty worry about the rest." ”

Speaking of the king, Lei Ye couldn't help but think of Sylvia's beautiful and mature woman.

I'm sorry, Lei Ye is starting to pay attention again.
