Chapter 621: Scum!
The reason why Qianniu Town is called Qianniu Town is because of its extremely developed cattle farming, and the town's standing beef cattle reserves reach thousands of heads, which is the main source of the town's economy.
But after Muyang came here, not to mention the cow, he didn't even see a piece of cow dung, which is quite strange, and now it seems that it is very likely to be related to this new city lord.
"The new city lord, named Chen Qing, was originally a big family in Qinzhou City, and last year, the Ju clan challenged the original Zhao family city lord's mansion and seized the position of city lord. ”
Mu Yang squinted his eyes and fell into thought, although he didn't know about this matter, but he knew that the cities under the jurisdiction of the Falling Moon Valley, or small countries, allowed power struggles to exist.
Only when there is strife can there be pressure, and only then can those in power be forced to work harder and achieve better development, and for the rest of the forces, allowing them to seize control by strength is in itself an incentive, and a balance and constraint will be formed between all parties, and each other will be promoted to become stronger.
Therefore, Chen Qing challenged the Zhao family, which was not inappropriate and reasonable.
There is nothing wrong with this system itself, but it is inevitable that there will be people with bad intentions, and after gaining power, they will get carried away and do whatever they want.
There are too many places under the jurisdiction of Falling Moon Valley, and it is impossible to check them one by one, so it is common to have some stains.
Thinking about this Chen Qing, it may not be a good species.
The woman continued: "Since Chen Qing came to power, he has been profligate and unscrupulous, and has ordered a threefold increase in taxes on all subordinate villages and towns! ”
Speaking of this, the woman couldn't help it, and shed tears of grievance, "You say, how can we take out so many taxes, the tax collection guards come once every half a month, and within two months, the funds in our town will be broken, and all the cattle will be sold, but it is still not enough to pay the taxes, and then we really can't come up with the money, so they start beating people, and they also say that they will catch young girls to pay off their debts." ”
By this time, she was crying silently, and her handkerchief was wet, "and then ...... Woo woo, and then everyone disagreed, you can't let them spoil the children, the men resisted, but there was the opponent of this group of robbers, the men were disabled, and many people were killed, they robbed a lot of girls to go to the city, saying that they were serving the city lord, but who doesn't know, the future of these children is gone!"
After Mu Yang heard this, he only felt that his chest was tight, holding back a fire, and his fists were trembling.
"We really had no choice but to hide some of the children, which only protected some of them, and some of them left their hometowns and left Qianniu Town, but how can we survive from a poor family like us, away from the place where we were born and raised!"
Mu Yang's nails were about to sink into his flesh, and his anger was already surging in his body, "Then haven't you thought about reporting to the Falling Moon Valley? As far as I know, the city lord of Qinzhou City is also subject to the Falling Moon Valley." ”
The woman tried to calm herself, "Who dare, the officials protect each other, who cares about the life or death of our little people?" Everyone said that Chen Qing was sheltered by the Falling Moon Valley, and he also gave benefits to the Falling Moon Valley, otherwise, how could no one care about it if he lost his conscience so much!"
At this time, Mu Yang was so angry that she gritted her teeth, if she wasn't afraid of scaring her, she would want to tear up the whole house, this Chen Qing is not only notorious, but also discredited the Falling Moon Valley!
As a parent official, he should seek the well-being of the people, but Chen Qing did everything he could to lose his conscience, regarded himself as the emperor of the soil, and brutalized the people, which is really not as good as a beast!
At this time, Mu Yang finally understood what Luo Yue meant when he said that these cities would soon be dealt with, and it turned out that these disciples were the key to dealing with it.
Although this is not Muyang's task, since he has encountered it, and it is directly linked to the reputation of Falling Moon Valley, he must not ignore it.
However, Mu Yang was also curious, why did Falling Moon Valley not find out about this matter? With the personalities of Falling Moon and the elders, if he knew the truth, it would be strange if he didn't tear Chen Qing apart.
At the same time, the elders who were far away in the main hall of the Falling Moon Valley had gloomy and terrifying faces one by one, and the atmosphere in the entire hall was extremely depressed.
Lao Xue was so angry that his beard was shaking, and he slammed the armrest of the chair, and scolded angrily: "Brute, brute! This brute who should be cut by a thousand knives is actually worthy of being an official under the rule of my Falling Moon Valley! Who is in charge of Qinzhou City! It's been a year, and we haven't gotten any news at all! This is still under our noses! Why is this!"
At this time, Wu Yuanfeng coughed and said embarrassedly: "I am in charge." ”
"You ......" Lao Xue originally wanted to scold, but he was a great elder, and Wu Yuanfeng had always been rigorous in his work, so he shouldn't make such a mistake.
Wu Yuanfeng stood up and said solemnly: "This is indeed an oversight on my part, Qinzhou City has been overwhelmed by internal friction since the battle for the city lord last year, and the city's economy has almost collapsed, and the rating has naturally been reduced, and the degree of attention has been reduced, and the task of on-site inspection has been handed over to another city, and we only receive written reports, so it is very likely that the two sides have colluded to deceive the upper and lower levels, and this has only been concealed for a year." ”
After all, the manpower of the Falling Moon Valley is still limited, and if you want to effectively manage so many places, you can't do it all yourself, and you must use some local forces, so this phenomenon of high-level cities managing low-level cities is very common.
And this just leaves room for these things that can't see the light to survive.
This is also a wake-up call for the elders to conduct a sweeping sweep
But before that, we have to deal with the Qinzhou City in front of you first.
Wu Yuanfeng said: "Let's see how Muyang deals with it first, if he handles it well this time, he should write down the credit, and then I will send someone to find out about this matter, and help Muyang if necessary." ”
With Wu Yuanfeng's arrangement, everyone's emotions have eased a little, and when something like this happens, it is simply a slap in the face, which is a stain on the Falling Moon Valley.
Lao Xue's gaze fell on Mu Yang again, and he muttered silently in his heart: Mu Yang, this time you can definitely show me some responsibility as a disciple of Falling Moon Valley, if you dare to sit idly by, Lao Tzu will definitely abolish you. ”
Xiao Qi on the side patted Lao Xue's shoulder and squeezed out a smile, "Don't worry, Muyang won't let us down." ”
Chen Yingzhi also added, "That's right, although Muyang is afraid of things, he is jealous and hateful, distinguishes between right and wrong, and believes in him." ”
