Chapter 652 [It's All Yours]
The moon slowly sank, and standing on the city walls, you could see the first rays of sunlight emerging from the distant horizon, and the end of the dark night meant the beginning of human time.
The people hiding in the basement left the basement and returned to the surface.
Almost everyone had heard the terrible noise of yesterday, and everyone thought that what they had seen when they came out of the basement must have been a scene of destruction, but strangely they were not what they had imagined.
Aside from a small area of damage, the entire city is almost intact.
The defenses of the sky were still running, and there was a gap in the walls, but the gap had been almost repaired, and it would be all done in one morning.
Everything is fine in the city, except for a few houses that have collapsed.
They didn't even see the casualties.
What's going on?
Yesterday's overwhelming roar caused such a little damage? This is not like the damage caused by a group of demon beasts attacking the city at all, it is simply like the loss caused by a demon beast recklessly breaking into the city.
Also, they obviously heard the voice of an incomparably powerful demon beast, and his roar made people have a headache, indicating that the strength of this demon beast was beyond imagination, and it was unimaginable that such a demon beast did not destroy half of the city.
All the people in the city took to the streets.
Their eyes were extremely puzzled, and they couldn't understand why the huge feeling yesterday caused this loss that was hardly a loss, could it be that they came over to make soy sauce and went back the same way? This doesn't look like the style of a monster.
Howe's voice rang out in the city.
"I'm the city lord Howe, and I scared everyone last night. All of the monsters from last night have been killed by us. The danger is all over, and everyone can rest assured. Other than that. Today, all the city gates were opened, and the corpses of demon beasts piled up outside the city were at will. As much as you can move back is yours at no charge. And friends and businessmen, there is no tax for this batch of demon beasts to go out of the city, and you can take as much as you can. The only requirement is that no one is allowed to dispose of the corpses of demon beasts outside the city. ”
Howe's voice startled everyone in the city, but then everyone became excited.
Especially the caravans who were planning to leave the city, this was tantamount to giving them a free lunch.
As a businessman, can you not be excited!
Since it was free, it was definitely on a first-come, first-served basis, and everyone flocked out of the city.
They thought that this free monster was basically a fast hand and a slow hand, but the moment they left the city. Everyone who saw this scene in front of them was stunned.
The monsters that fell outside the city were like frozen waves, with no end in sight in waves.
These are the monsters that roared last night, right?
How did so many demon beasts die before they even got close to the city wall?
They are ordinary people, and they are not as enthusiastic about this kind of thing as they are about Xiao Cheap, although they don't know how to do it, but they can get all these monsters back now.
That's the most important thing for them.
Smaller monsters can eat meat, and larger monsters can be skinned and sold.
Since Huo Wei demanded that everyone must get the monster back to the city and deal with it, their first reaction was to quickly find the monster beast they liked and drag it back, and then how to deal with it.
After the first person acted, the second person immediately went into action. Then everybody got into action.
People in the dark world are only afraid of demon beasts in the dark night, but all the demon beasts they see during the day are basically dead demon beasts, so there is nothing to fear at all.
There were hundreds of thousands of people in the city, and the scene was spectacular. It's like a swarm of ants rushing to an elephant, one biting it, and then dividing the elephant.
It kind of ridiculous to see. But only in this way can the corpses of these monsters be disposed of.
The demon beasts of the dark world did not rely on the power of yin and yang to maintain their vitality, and the energy in their bodies would not disappear immediately after they died. Rather, it slowly escapes, once all this energy is gone. The corpse of the demon beast will decay as quickly as the ordinary human corpse wilderness.
If you don't dispose of the corpses of these monsters outside the city, it won't be long before the corpses of these monsters will begin to decompose, and then the stench will enter the city along with the air, and the defense layer that used to be above allows air circulation, which means that the city is likely to be destroyed by terrible diseases.
Once the corpses of the monsters began to decay, they were as devastating as their frontal attacks.
As a general who has fought in all directions, Howe is very handy at dealing with these things.
The reason why they have to deal with demon beasts in the city is because if they don't ask for this, they will definitely take the things they need directly, such as furs, minions and the like, and a large amount of meat will still be left outside the city, so it will not be such a situation if they take it back to the city and deal with it.
It is not allowed to throw away large garbage at will in the city, this is a rule, the common people abide by this rule all year round, once the demon beast is dragged back to deal with it, no matter what, they will try to dispose of what they don't want as much as possible, the merchant who needs the fur will buy the meat to the merchant who needs the meat, and the merchant who needs the meat will buy the fur to the merchant who needs the fur, and the common people can also keep the fur for their own use or sell it to the merchant, and the meat will be stored for themselves if it is cold, or roasted into jerky and stored for later eating.
As long as they can get it back to the city, everyone will definitely find a way to dispose of these demon beasts.
Yang Yi gave Huo Wei a thumbs up.
This guy deserves to be a general, quite powerful.
In this way, not only did it consume a large number of demon beasts outside the city, but it also brought an unprecedented benefit to the people and merchants in the city, as long as they went out of the city, there were benefits, which was definitely a big benefit.
Importantly, this will stimulate trade in the city.
Huo Wei only said that there was no tax on transporting these demon beasts out of the city, and he did not say that there was no tax for these demon beasts to trade in the city, so that a large number of transactions could bring a lot of income to the City Lord's Mansion.
And Howe can just use this money for the maintenance of the city.
He didn't know if Huo Wei wanted to, but Yang Yi could feel it from the contact with Huo Wei, this man regarded this city as his home, and the people in the city were his family, and he would definitely use the money in this family.
"General Huo, do you often face this situation?" Yang Yi walked down the city wall and asked.
Howe followed him down the wall.
"I've never encountered such a tricky situation today, but according to the general plan, it is a dangerous thing for a large number of demon beast corpses to accumulate inside and outside the city, so this can be regarded as a standard process." Howe Road.
Yang Yi nodded and didn't say anything.
It seems that the dark world has already formed a complete system of its own to deal with the problems caused by demon beasts.
"Master Horse, I didn't thank you for your rescue last night, but today no matter what, I must thank you on behalf of the people of the city, if it weren't for your help, this city would have been in ruins, at that time countless people were displaced, countless families died, countless children became orphans, it was Master Horse that you let everyone avoid this terrible result, so you must not refuse my kindness." Howe said earnestly.
"You've said that, can I still refuse?" Yang Yi smiled.
Huo Wei was stunned for a moment, and then laughed as well.
The two returned to the City Lord's Mansion.
"General, Master Pony." Xiaolan didn't sleep since she waited for Xiangyi to fall asleep, and finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw them come back.
"Xiaolan, immediately let the kitchen prepare the highest level banquet, I want to entertain the horse master." Howe commanded.
"Okay, I'll go right away."
Yang Yi and Huo Wei came to the atrium living room together, and a few waitresses went out after making tea.
"Horse Master, please." Huo Wei brought the tea to Yang Yi, took two steps back, knelt on one knee, and kowtowed three times without waiting for Yang Yi to react.
"On behalf of all the soldiers, all the people, and all the merchants in the city, I would like to thank the master for his rescue." Huo Wei clenched his fists with both hands and said solemnly.
Yang Yi took a sip of tea and smiled a little bitterly.
"Is that okay?"
"......" Huo Wei was stunned for a moment, also smiled bitterly, got up and sat down next to him, "Master Horse, it's not that I am polite to you, I Huo Wei must treat it solemnly with such a great kindness, otherwise I'm sorry for you blocking the monstrous demon beast flood for us last night." ”
"You said it on the way, so why bother." Yang Yi poured himself a glass and said, "If you really want to thank me, give me enough money when I leave." I didn't bring a penny with me when I came, and the princess is not a money-saving corner, and I can't let me steal it and rob her if I want this and that along the way. So you understand what I mean? ”
"The last general understands!" Howe naturally understood what he meant, and readily agreed.
The cost of rebuilding a city is quite staggering, but as long as Yang Yi has a little enough travel expenses, Huo Wei has nothing that he can't agree to.
And for Yang Yi, if he didn't really have the coins of the dark world in his pocket, he really didn't even want this money, but since he could, he wouldn't refuse.
"Does the military zone have its own place to forge weapons?" Yang Yi asked while sipping tea.
"Absolutely."
"Then why did you find the five of them?"
"I thought at the time that if you want to make such a powerful weapon as the horse master, you must have super high casting skills, and the horse master is honest, after all, the person responsible for casting weapons in the barracks is a mixed food profession, and it is difficult to produce a really powerful casting master, these people are different, they do things for themselves, and they earn more if they do well, so these people are naturally better and better in this regard." Howe was a little embarrassed. (To be continued......)
