Chapter 0093: Take control of Pingsha City
After some spiritual baptism, when the major power lords followed Bai Qi back to the castle guard mansion and stepped into the main hall of the castle guard mansion again, they were extremely docile. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The power lords secretly thought, it's not okay if you are not docile, don't you see that the natural disasters have to retreat in front of the killing star, what are the stubborn people of their own group!
In the afternoon, Bai Qi announced various decisions about Pingsha City.
First of all, those who actively kill people and eat meat, one counts as one, and all of them are executed.
Second, the fighting forces under the command of the major forces must be handed over and the unified establishment must be re-disrupted. The leader of the force must not have more than ten armed forces of more than ten people!
The non-combat members under the protection of the major forces will be divided into households and become the first batch of official villagers in Pingsha City, instead of being the logistical members of the major forces.
The city guard mansion was officially opened, and Bai Qi was the commander of the Blood Massacre Army, and at the same time temporarily replaced the Pingsha City Guard.
Among the members of the new army who fought with the major forces, 3,000 people were selected to become members of the Blood Massacre Army, and the rest were selected to be used as county soldiers.
All this is only a temporary framework for formulating a major topic, and the specific matters must be slowly improved.
It takes a lot of time and energy to count the population, summarize the materials, etc., and it really can't be done for a while.
Luo Hongxiang intended to stay in Pingsha City, and Wu Bai decided to make her the city lieutenant, and the power to take charge of the county soldiers was handed over to her.
Mo Yutang Hall Master Jun Mo said that although there are small flaws, it can be useful, and it is still okay for him to assist Bai Qi in handling some housework.
With the end of this incident, Pingsha City was officially incorporated into the rule of Canglong City.
After three busy days, Bai Qi compiled the details of Pingsha City into a book and handed it over to Wu Bai for reference.
The population of Pingsha City greatly exceeded expectations, and the actual number of registered people reached 63,759. It has more than 20,000 more people than Zhenhai City, more than double Wubai's estimate.
Farming was completely paralyzed, and occasionally people went into the mountains to hunt and go to the sea to fish. But it is not large-scale, and it is a drop in the bucket for the demand gap of more than 60,000 people.
From this, you can imagine what kind of life the people of Pingsha City lived in the past.
Seeing this, Wu Bai was a little puzzled, impossible! If so, how do the big forces keep running?
Flipping through the pages, I finally found the basis for the survival of the big forces. It turns out that some of these big forces can go to the sea to collect pearls, and exchange them for food and daily necessities for daily needs.
When Wu Bai saw that a pound of pearls could only be exchanged for five carts of grain, he couldn't help but shoot the case, black! It's so dark!
With Dazhen Market, even the most ordinary pearl of the East China Sea, the value of one is by no means less than a thousand taels of silver. A pound of pearls must have ten to twenty pieces, that is, more than 10,000 to 20,000 taels of silver.
How much is a cartload of grain worth? Even if it is the best rice, a cart is worth only five or six hundred taels of silver.
I don't know that it is the merchant family who is trading with Pingsha City, for so many years, just with this pearl of Pingsha City, I am afraid that it can be rich and rival the country.
As soon as he thought of this, Wu Bai immediately summoned the person in charge of the secret guard and instructed him: "Immediately ask the major power lords about the merchants who trade the pearls, and be sure to ensure that they are detailed and true!" ”
The person in charge of the secret guard was ordered to leave, and Wu Bai was wary of this merchant force in his heart. The huge profits brought by this pearl are impossible for anyone to give up easily. If you want to pacify Dongmu County, this merchant force will inevitably be another roadblock, and it is not small.
Suddenly discovering such a huge omission, Wu Bai did not dare to relax in the slightest when he read the follow-up content again.
Fortunately, the rest of the content is all general information, and there is nothing surprising about it.
After Wu Bai finished reading the intelligence information of Pingsha City, less than a moment, the person in charge of the secret guard hurriedly came and reported to him to inquire about the situation.
"My lord, after the major forces have said that the forces that trade pearls with Pingsha City are very mysterious, I don't know where they come from, but one thing is very clear, that is, every time this mysterious merchant force sends people in charge of trading, they are all red-haired and blue-eyed, and they look weird!"
When Wu Bai heard this, an ominous premonition suddenly rose in his heart, but he couldn't grasp it for a while, so he could only suppress this feeling in his heart first.
Then he asked the person in charge of the dark guard, "Do you know what the accent of their way of speaking is?" ”
"Hui Lord, my subordinates have indeed asked the major power lords, according to them, these red-haired and blue-eyed weird people are all fluent in official language!"
When Wu Bai heard this, his heart suddenly struck. The language of the Central Plains in this world is not much different from that of the earth, and the information implied by the alien barbarians can master the official language fluently, and they can also conduct such a huge transaction with the people of the Central Plains without making mistakes!
And the main thing at the moment is that I don't know anything about them, and that's the most terrible. Whether these people are from the Sixteen Kingdoms or the infiltration of foreign forces is very different.
Although Wu Bai's goal has always been to accumulate enough points, he can't tolerate the alien barbarian states to raid the Central Plains, the original sixteen countries are enough to cause headaches, but I didn't expect such a mysterious force to suddenly emerge.
Regardless of what happens in the future, the most important thing at this time is to find out the origin of this mysterious force.
Wu Bai doesn't like things beyond his control the most, and the unknown indicates variables.
After thinking for a moment, Wu Bai summoned a shadow guard and immediately ordered: "You immediately rush back to Canglong City to pass on my order, and let Wu Yue go all out to explore the red-haired and blue-eyed merchant forces who traded the Pearl of the East China Sea with Pingsha City!" Make sure I find the clues when I get back! ”
……
In the next few days, after Wu Bai was busy perfecting the general layout of Pingsha City, he handed everything over to Bai Qi.
He took the Shadow Guard, Old Man Wang, and all the members of the Twelve Swords Hall of the Swordsman Family to prepare to return to Canglong City.
The purpose of the Twelve Swords Hall of the Swordsman Family, Wu Bai had other plans in his heart, and he didn't think about leaving them in Pingsha City.
The second is to prevent the Twelve Daotang of the Swordsman Family from being unrestrained. Pingsha City was initially decided, and it couldn't leave too much trouble for Bai Qi.
The Twelve Swords Hall, a family force that regards the law as nothing, is more at ease to stay by his side.
In the early morning of the ninth day of the eighth month, Wu Bai will leave Pingsha City with the shadow guard and the swordsman family.
Bai Qi, Luo Hongxiang, Jun Moyu and others saw them off. Wu Bai solemnly explained to Bai Qi: "These days, I am not in a hurry to purge the bloody army, and I will control the overall situation first." When I go back, send Wen Ruo over, and then you will clean up the blood slaughter and plan the remaining two cities!" ”
Bai Qi knew these situations in his heart, and the most important thing at the moment was to stabilize Pingsha City and hold the first place in Dongmu County in his hands. in order to plot against the other two cities.
He replied solemnly to Wu Bai: "Don't worry, my lord, understand the priorities!" ”
After saying goodbye, everyone stepped on the war horses and left, the target - Lanling!
