"What? The girls who served me last night died? ”

On the morning of February 2, 1888, Wang Ziming, who had just appointed Angela as the new mayor of Reese, suddenly received a report from his subordinates.

The two pure and beautiful girls who served him last night suddenly died violently!

He was fine when he left early in the morning, and the two of them didn't even step out of the door of the room, why did they die?

The French line infantry has blocked the scene, and the two died in the well-guarded mansion of Prince Ming (formerly the villa of the elite city of Rees), and the French line infantry is full of inside and out, even high-level professionals cannot kill people silently!

What's more, if there really is a high-level professional coming, it should be Wang Ziming not far from the villa, instead of two inconsequential girls!

All the evidence suggests that the two girls were not murdered, but their terrified expressions before they died and their bloodied bodies reminded everyone that it could not have been the suicide of the two girls......

However, after Wang Ziming heard that the professionals found in Rees City speculated that it was likely to be a ghost, he stopped investigating the matter......

"Alas, what a work of iniquity......"

Wang Ziming looked at the corpses of the two girls who had been buried, shook his head helplessly and sighed.

Fortunately, Wang Ziming is a reasonable person, and he did not tear up the previous agreement with Angela because of the death of these two girls, let alone let Angela replenish himself with fresh pure maids......

Wang Ziming already had some guesses in his heart, and he didn't want to keep 'slaughtering beauty' because of his own reasons.

The most important thing is that Wang Ziming is worried that this is a warning from the female ghost Xiaoqian, if the female ghost is angered for some indescribable reason, Wang Ziming's talisman is likely to become a deadly thing!

Although the female ghost Xiaoqian did not show a trace of hostility from beginning to end, Wang Ziming did not want to pin his life on unfounded conjectures, let alone be crazy on the verge of death!

What if the female ghost Xiaoqian retains the 'common disease' of women before her death?

The death of the two girls was quickly suppressed, and with the help of Angela, the head snake, the city of Reese soon returned to a peaceful life with the axe gang holding the axe to maintain order.

Because of the gun ban issued by Wang Ziming, the Axe Gang has become a veritable Axe Gang, originally the axe is just a weapon used by the Axe Gang to show their identity and hand-to-hand combat, and the main combat is still a revolver and a Longzheng rifle.

But Reese City, which has now been banned from guns, naturally does not need the Axe Gang to help the people get guns, and it is enough to use an axe.

Angela is worthy of being a talented woman who was once attracted by the Yuwen family, and in just 3 days, the people of Reese City resumed their former jobs.

The land that should be planted, the work that should be done, the seller who should be a hawker be a hawker......

Big shops can never be opened, because big shops are actually supported by the powerful behind them, and without the powerful there will be no supply channels, so naturally they will not be able to sell ......

As a result, business activity in the city of Reece suddenly became sluggish.

Of course, Wang Ziming doesn't care about this, he just needs a stable environment for those ordinary people to honestly farm and produce all kinds of materials to feed his army!

In addition to Reese City, other towns and even villages also follow a similar method, selecting talents who are willing to work for them among the locals, and then directly arranging the position of town mayor and village head.

As for the large and well-established executive branch of the Federation, it has been completely reduced.

Only three basic and critical departments remain in the local administration.

The executive branch dominated by the mayor, town mayor, and village chief, the judicial department, which is limited in personnel to resolve civil disputes, and the sheriff with only a few people......

In cities like Reese, there are patrol houses, and a patrol chief leads dozens of patrols to maintain law and order.

Because everyone doesn't have guns, these dozens of gun-wielding patrols are quite powerful.

Not to mention the fact that there is a garrison of infantry on the French Line in the city of Reese!

The matter of force was left to the French infantry, and the role of the patrol was more to deal with civil disputes and track down criminals.

After all, the French line infantry will only fight, so it's not right for them to catch thieves!

As for the town-level administrative units, it is even more rudimentary, with only one sheriff with less than double digits of security guards.

If it is a large village, there is only one village-level magistrate, and in a small village, there is no magistrate, so it is up to the village chief to maintain the ......

Of course, all the local departments will not allocate funds, but they need to collect taxes under the supervision of the French line infantry!

Taxes are no longer money, but all kinds of living goods and important food!

Wang Ziming's military junta's favorite thing was food, and only when there was no food to hand in.

In addition, Wang Ziming also frantically set the tax collection deadline at once a month!

The hell that you have to pay taxes once a month, is there anything more cruel for the commoners of the Federation?

You know, federal taxes are only paid twice a year in this era!

Of course, the low number of tax collections does not mean that the tax pressure is light, but just that the federal government wants to save personnel costs when collecting taxes.

Tax collection is a huge project, and in this era without information technology, it is all up to manual inspection......

Therefore, Wang Ziming's monthly tax collection is actually asking for trouble for himself, which greatly increases the work intensity of the tax collectors, but fortunately, Wang Ziming can let the French line infantry go to the countryside to collect taxes compulsorily!

In front of the barrel of a gun, the efficiency of tax collection is still quite high......

Wang Ziming, who is worried about the number of troops, will use soldiers to ask for taxes by force!

And the tax collectors in the government actually do more like a kind of statistical work of clerks.

During the period when Wang Ziming established the rule of the Blue Coats Army in the colonial area of Reece City, the expansion of the infantry of the French line did not stop, and the magic stone mine in the colonial area of Reece City was easily received by Wang Ziming.

Except for the mine boss (nobleman) who escaped without a trace, the rest of the personnel were intact, and Wang Ziming's government only needed to change the management team to run immediately.

When recovering the magic stone mine, Wang Ziming found that the miners were all white Obarro, and they were based on family villages.

Their quarters were next to the mines, where there were no old people or children, and both white men and women were forced to work in the open field.

Even if you are exhausted, there will be no compensation!

Because these Obaro whites are two-legged livestock in the eyes of the Federalists, a cheap labor force that can be constantly replenished.

Interestingly, even as the mine workers continued to oppress these white Obarro, they were still reluctant to go back to where they used to live!
