September 20th.

The prosperous scene in Shili City has been restored, and even more merchants come and go than before, which is also due to Wen Kaiyuan's opening of the shop authority of Shili City, attracting more merchants to settle in. Of course, it is also inseparable from the foundation of Shili City itself, because of its proximity to the border forest, Shili City's forestry and animal husbandry are almost unique in Half Moon Shenzhou.

After four days of continuous work, Ge Santian was finally liberated from Wen Kaiyuan and took to the streets alone again.

In four days, Ge Tiantian helped Wen Kaiyuan deal with a lot of things, including the pacification of wounded soldiers, compensation for the deceased, and meeting with foreign merchant groups.

The Liangshan bandits no longer care about them, and under Ge Santian's proposal, they directly issued a wanted warrant in the name of the city lord's mansion, with a reward of one hundred, and Tianji, the deputy leader of the Liangshan bandits.

They didn't have to worry about the families in Shili City, because Wen Kaiyuan interviewed the heads of the three major families and Tong Fengtai, the head of the minority family represented by Weihai the day after the infighting ended.

Of course, the Eastern family did not send anyone.

The content of that interview was very meaningful, and in the long run, it was definitely an important reform in Wen Kaiyuan's hegemony career.

Three days ago, the City Lord's Mansion of Ten Mile City.

Wen Kaiyuan calmly looked at the heads of the various families in their seats, and most of the heads of the families were stared at by Wen Kaiyuan and did not dare to come out.

"You don't have to be nervous, I'm not going to eat you."

Wen Kaiyuan smiled secretly, which made the heads of those small families even more nervous.

"You can all see yesterday's battle! In a battle, the number of dead and wounded soldiers exceeded a thousand, and it really saddened me, they were all the elite of our Half Moon Clan, because they had to take up arms and fight each other because they were with the wrong person. Wen Kaiyuan said in pain.

"Hearing the great mercy of the city lord, those soldiers who have passed away will definitely feel no regrets when they know it!" The head of a small family immediately flattered.

Wen Kaiyuan glanced at the man and said disrespectfully, "I haven't seen you before!" Which family are you the head of? ”

The head of the small family not only did not get angry, but smiled, "Beicheng misses the family, misses the stone saddle, the small family room, please forgive me when I hear the city lord." ”

"Homesickness! Well! Not bad! I remember you! Wen Kaiyuan nodded symbolically.

"Nian Shian, where did I just go?" Wen Kaiyuan asked Shi An.

"The city lord Wen just felt sad for the dead soldiers, and my mood is the same as that of the city lord." Nian Shi'an hurriedly replied, and did not forget to flatter.

"You are really good, as a half-moon clan, you have to think more about your own race, instead of worrying about your own selfish desires all day long."

Wen Kaiyuan praised him, and then the topic changed.

"Therefore, in order to avoid a recurrence of yesterday's situation, I have decided to impose a military restriction on the large and small families in the city."

"Tiezi, you read out the content of the military restriction order to all the family masters." Wen Kaiyuan ordered Tiezi to stand beside him.

"Yes!"

Tiezi took out a manuscript and read it out.

"For the sake of the stability and peace of Shili City, and in order to put an end to infighting, the City Lord's Mansion decided to implement a military restriction order for the whole city. The content is as follows, Article 1, the city's families, chambers of commerce, sects and other organizational forces are not allowed to recruit private troops, and those who have private troops must be dismissed within 10 days from now on. ”

As soon as Tiezi finished reading the first article, the head of the family below exploded.

"Please be quiet and keep listening!" Wen Kaiyuan tapped his fingers on the tabletop, and the noisy person immediately closed his mouth.

"Article 2: All organizations and individuals in the city are not allowed to privately produce or purchase artillery, bombs, and other weapons that are more harmful." Tiezi saw that the atmosphere had quieted down and continued to read.

"Article 3, all families, chambers of commerce, sects and other organizational forces in the city need to register with the city lord's mansion, and the families, chambers of commerce, sects and other organizational forces that have completed the registration are allowed to recruit guards, and the number of guards shall not exceed 100."

In fact, it is to transform the nature of the private army into a guard of the home and nursing home.

"Fourth, all families, chambers of commerce, sects and other organizations in the city shall not collude with each other and endanger the safety of the city."

"Article 5,...... Come to an end! ”

When everyone was listening intently to Tiezi's reading of the fifth military restriction order, he came to an end.

"Tiezi, when did you learn to joke coldly!" Wen Kaiyuan asked with a smile.

"Seeing them so nervous, I can't help it." Tiezi said expressionlessly.

"Excellent! Outstanding! (Wen Kaiyuan clapped his hands as he spoke) ...... That's the specific situation, everyone can say their opinions or suggestions, but that's it! This restriction order will not be changed. ”

Wen Kaiyuan clearly did not give these large and small families a chance.

"Wen City Lord, I can't disagree, my Zuoqiu family has a big business, if there are no soldiers, who will protect my Zuoqiu family's property? Who will protect the clansmen of my Zuoqiu family, is the city lord willing to do it for him? Wen Kaiyuan blatantly asked them to dismiss the private army, and Zuo Churchill left without slapping the table, which was enough to give Wen Kaiyuan face.

"Alas! I didn't expect the head of the Zuoqiu family to understand me so well, it seems that there must have been a misunderstanding between us before! You're right! From now on, all your families will be protected by the city army. ”

Wen Kaiyuan domineering side leakage.

Zuo Churchill couldn't have imagined that his sarcastic words turned out to be Wen Kaiyuan's real purpose.

"I'll tell you! I'm here for your good! Now that Ten Mile City is peaceful, it is useless for you to recruit private troops, it is just a waste of money, it is better to spend the money where it should be spent, such as cultivating cultivators. Of course, for the three major families, I will give you enough mercy and allow you to recruit no more than two hundred guards. Wen Kaiyuan persuaded bitterly.

The heads of the small families were all silent, because many of them couldn't even make up a hundred people, and this matter basically had nothing to do with them. And, Tong Fengtai and Weihai didn't dare to speak at all, they still remembered what Wen Kaiyuan said last time, and they fully believed that if they objected, then, within the next day, there would be no more Tong and Wei families in Shili City.

"Wen Kaiyuan, you are snatching military power in disguise!" Left Churchill finally couldn't help but burst out.

"That's right! I'm depriving you of your military power! You can leave now, but I can't guarantee whether it will be the three major families or the two major families in the future. "Wen Kaiyuan doesn't care about stalls.

Threats, naked threats, Left Churchill has reached the point where he can no longer bear it.

"I don't mind that there are only two families left in Ten Mile City! It would be better if there was only one left! Simon spoke coldly, and his two words aroused fear in all the heads of the family, including Churchill Zuo.

"Haha! Originally, I thought the same way, but I had already promised Liangshan to take care of the Dongfang family. Wen Kaiyuan laughed, this Ximen right is a ruthless person, he appreciates it very much.

"Ximen You, our three major families have always had the same hatred, you not only helped Wen Kaiyuan deal with the Dongfang family, but now you have to threaten me!" Left Churchill angrily rebuked Simon right.

"This is not a threat! The trend is the same, and I'm just going with the flow. Simon replied lightly.

"You are a traitor to the House of Simon! Ximen Qing! Why didn't Ximen Qing come by himself! Left Churchill shouted.

"Ximen Qing has already been killed by me, if you shout again, I will even kill you." Simon's right eye gleamed fiercely.

Zuo Churchill's body trembled, he was provoked, and at the same time he had already felt the killing intent of Ximen Right and Wen Kaiyuan towards him.

"It's not good to fight, kill, kill! Affect the reputation of our Ten Mile City! So! You all have to remember the rules and regulations of the military restriction order, and I will not give you a second chance to mend your ways. Wen Kaiyuan said ha.

"Alright, that's it, you can go."

The talk has already been discussed, and it is not interesting to keep these people any longer, so Wen Kaiyuan naturally sent them away.

In fact, this interview was premeditated, Wen Kaiyuan and Ximen You had reached a consensus before the interview, and in exchange for giving up the command of the army, Wen Kaiyuan allowed the people of the Ximen family to serve in important positions in the city lord's mansion and the city government army. As for the Zuoqiu family, Wen Kaiyuan has never had a good impression of them, so naturally he mainly suppresses them.
