"So you can't meddle in their affairs at all?" Mu Ran said.

"Yes, they are holding the lifeblood of Yuzhou City, and they have also formed an alliance, they can't move at all, once the workshops are closed, the peasant strikes and the cultivators leave, then Yuzhou will not be Yuzhou. Yu Hongming sighed, looking ashamed.

"Yuzhou sounds glamorous on the surface, but in fact the water inside is very deep and rotten. If it weren't for these, maybe Yuzhou's reputation would have been greater, and maybe it would have become the largest continent, and the money and resources handed over to the national treasury every year would have been almost less than one-third of the original income. ”

Mu Ran was surprised, there were so many, those people were really bold, "Aren't they afraid that the court will come to investigate?"

"The so-called mountain is high and the emperor is far away, as long as no one reports it, the emperor will not know, and there seem to be people in the court who help them, so they dare to act like this. ”

"Then since you said that the taxes here are very heavy and the people are not doing well, why don't you start here, what they threaten you is nothing more than a strike and a strike on the peasants, and if the people are facing you, how can they manipulate them. ”

"Alas, this is also the fault of the lower officials, when they were completely delegated to them, they had ambitions early on, and gradually installed people, many people were either developed into relatives or held the lifeline, and the lower officials were also weak, and it is understandable that the people did not dare to put all their wealth on the officials. ”

Mu Ran sighed.

Even the city lord can not shake his face, so she, the airborne big landlord, will naturally not shake his face.

I knew that it would be difficult to suddenly take over a place, but now it seems that it is even more than expected.

"Heh, the trouble is a little troublesome, but at least you are still the owner of this land, and you can meddle in everything here, you don't need to report it, and it's easy to act. Seeming to see her thoughts, Feng Jinxuan smiled.

Mu Ran turned his head to look at him, "Do you have a way?"

"It's not like there's no way. Feng Jinxuan smiled freely, "It mainly depends on which one you want, whether it is a gentle policy or an iron-blooded policy, if you don't obey discipline, you must always get rid of it, leaving these pests to have no effect except to find trouble." ”

"Let me know what you think. ”

"In fact, in the final analysis, it is nothing more than one, the problem lies in the cooperation of the people, as long as the people can cooperate with us, then everything will be solved, but as I just said, these people are mostly caught or threatened, in fact, this can also be seen as a benefit, because it shows that in fact, most of the people are not voluntary, but forced to helpless. ”

"When we came here before, we said that it would not work to control them for the time being, and that we had to shuffle the cards vigorously, and remove them all as I said. ”

"But what if they lead the people to strike or riot. ”

"That's why I said that I want to be gentle or iron-blooded. This comes and goes is nothing more than a good word, why the people will be grabbed by them, that is the relationship of interests, if you can allow them better interests, not afraid that they will not follow obediently, but in that case you are bound to bleed, and there may be drawbacks for a long time, pampered and arrogant, people's greed is unlimited, and if you are iron-blooded, you can suppress it strongly, and there are also drawbacks, that is, there are disadvantages. ”

"You can be violent first and then peaceful. Feng Linglang said suddenly.

Several people looked at him at the same time.

Feng Jinxuan nodded, "That's okay, but it will definitely take a lot of time and money to clean up the mess after that, and this mess is likely to make Yuzhou lose some of its reputation." ”

"Heh, I'm not afraid, there will be more opportunities to obtain fame in the future, as for time and money, it's not a problem, there should be no problem with the cultivation of spiritual grass in the north, and the most important thing now is the farmers and workshops. Mu Ran finally smiled a little, and peeled off the cocoon, in fact, as long as there are no worries, everything can be done, anyway, now this place is hers, whether she wants to close the door or build a car, she can say anything.

"Isn't there still a rich area, what about those people?" Lin Xiaoxiao suddenly interjected.

Several people were stunned.

"Ah, dear lady, what a timely reminder you have. Feng Jinxuan laughed out loud and raised his hand to pinch Lin Xiaoxiao's face, but she slapped it away.

Mu Ran also laughed, they really forgot about this part, this should be the point.

"What's the sales route of the people here, selling to outsiders or locals?" Mu Ran turned his head and asked the city lord.

The city lord also seemed to understand something, "Generally, it is sold directly to the merchants who buy it here at a low price, and it is rarely sold piecemeal, because the cost of the road alone cannot be recovered, there is still time, and the surrounding area may not be safe." ”

"It seems that they have found the lifeblood of the people. Feng Jinxuan smiled.

The atmosphere suddenly relaxed.

"In this way, Yu City Lord, you will send a message out, and the edict will be held at the City Lord's Mansion at noon tomorrow, and you will say......" Mu Ran turned his head to look at Feng Linglang, "Just say that the new state lord of Yuzhou will discuss the new policy of Yuzhou tomorrow, and he will not wait for it." ”

"Eh, what if they don't come?" the city lord looked at Mu Ran, and then at Feng Linglang.

"Heh, didn't you say it, it's outdated, by the way, don't forget to tell them that the new state lord is not King Lang, but me Ling Muran. ”

The city lord was stunned for a moment, a little stunned.

Feng Linglang bowed, "Later, take the title deed of Yuzhou and the like, and change it." ”

“...... Be. The city lord didn't say anything more, turned around and retreated, thought about it and said, "Then I don't know if Ming'er has done the handover together?"

"Don't be so formal, just wait for the name change on the official document and then draft some documents, I probably won't have time to manage this place all the time, you have been here for many years, you must know about this place, if you are willing to continue to stay and help take care of it, you can continue to be the city lord, if you don't want to, I can also help draft an official document to recommend you to be transferred." ”

Yu Hongming was surprised again, "Can Xia Guan stay?"

"Heh, no one said no. Mu Ran smiled, "To put it mildly, this place can also be said to be a country of its own in the future, and you people have already entered the nationality here, so naturally you also belong to the people here, you should have stayed and been transferred by me, and it is someone else to help you transfer." ”

The city lord nodded clearly, and then became happy again, "Then please ask the state lord to give Xia Guan a chance, after many years, Xia Guan has already made this place his home and does not want to leave." ”

"Then don't leave, as long as you do it well, I guarantee that Yuzhou City in the future will not be worse than before, but in this case, you will not be an official of the imperial court in the future." You need to think about it. ”

"Xia Guan has already thought it through. ”

"Alright then, as long as you don't regret it later. ”

The city lord bowed, and then respectfully withdrew, and at this moment he really felt that this Yuzhou had really been divided.

"Do you think this person is credible?" After the others left, Mu Ran suddenly asked Feng Jinxuan.

Feng Jinxuan raised his head and smiled, "Don't you already have the answer in your heart." ”

"Hehe, you have to have more guarantees to feel at ease. ”

In the evening, Siniang, who had been waiting in Yuzhou City for a long time, came to the City Lord's Mansion after receiving the news.

"Heh, I haven't seen you for a while, Siniang is much more beautiful, the spring breeze is full of faces, is there anything good?"

Mu Ran's words are not a joke, Siniang's changes are indeed quite big, with the increase of rank, the whole person has become more clear, and her spiritual water has gradually transformed her body, at least now the changes on the surface can be seen, her skin is fair and delicate, she looks more than ten years younger, and she is in charge of so many people, and now she also has a kind of momentum, and she is a strong woman, and she is a lot more confident.

Siniang said with a smile, "Thanks to the master's blessing, Siniang is given by the master today." If it weren't for Mu Ran's acquaintance back then, I'm afraid that today she would still be the poor woman who had to worry about her in-laws' seizure of land from time to time, worked hard to plant low-grade spiritual grass, and lived a life of not having enough to eat.

Siniang is a person who remembers her kindness, so slowly, she basically regards Mu Ran as her master, and she will serve her in this life.

"Heh, Siniang, don't be modest, I just led you into the door, you still worked hard to get it today, if you weren't good enough and hardworking enough, to be honest, I wouldn't have chosen you in the first place, and even let you participate in these things. Okay, let's stop being polite and go, let's sit down first. ”

"Heh, Siniang, is Xiangxiang good?" Lin Xiaoxiao looked at the two of them politely, and then asked with a smile, in fact, she was also frightened by Siniang just now, this change is really big, I used to see it often and didn't feel anything, but seeing each other after so long is simply earth-shaking.

"Miss Lin, Xiangxiang is also very good, that girl is much more cheerful now, and she likes to go to the fields every day to make trouble. ”

"Eh, they all said don't call me Miss Lin, call me Xiaoxiao, Mu Mu said that we are a family now, and we will be a big family in the future, so don't you want to be so identious. ”

"Hehe, Xiaoxiao is right. Mu Ran couldn't help but chuckle.

"This ...... Well, then I'm not going to squirm either. Siniang smiled lightly.

"Oh, Siniang, you are really a great beauty, I don't know how many men I am going to charm with this smile, just now Mu Ran said that something good happened, I think it is also, is there a good relationship with gold and jade, huh?" Lin Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows and smiled ambiguously.

Mu Ran also teased, Siniang's face couldn't help but be a little red, her face was uncomfortable, but she didn't deny it.

The two looked at each other and raised their eyebrows, "It seems that it really is." ”

"Ahem, that, master, let's talk about Yuzhou first. Siniang unnaturally changed the topic.

Mu Ran said with a smile, "Don't be in a hurry, Siniang why don't we talk about it, although others can't interfere with their own marriage, but it's okay for multiple people to help check it, Siniang is our most important flower, how can it be picked at will." ”

"Master, how are you, how are you ......?"

"Oh, Siniang, we're also old friends, it's a big deal for us to exchange, now that Mu Ran and I have a partner, it's better for us to learn from each other's experience." ”

"Poof......" Mu Ran couldn't help laughing, fortunately he didn't drink tea, otherwise he would have to spray.

Siniang was also surprised, look at the two of them.

The so-called three women in one play, this chat is endless, and the distance is also a lot closer after this chat, so men need so many brothers, and women also need so many girlfriends.
