Chapter Forty-Eight: Harvest After Raiding the House
At the Songhai City Execution Ground, there were nearly 100 people kneeling on the field at this time, and there were countless onlookers around, which could not be blamed on them, after all, this execution may be the largest in the history of Songhai City. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The criminals who are about to be executed are not all ordinary people, looking at the group of former big people, the people of Songhai City have mixed feelings, but almost everyone is applauding.
More than a dozen former officials of Songhai City, including the former sheriff Kasuo, the former political officer, and the former tax officer, were found to be suspected of colluding with werewolves in addition to corruption.
Locke, the vice president of the Songhai City Mercenary Chamber, and more than 30 subordinates, they were preparing to attack the granary that night, open the city gate, and let the werewolves into the city, and also did many evil things.
Anthony Simon, the head of the aristocratic Simon family, and more than 20 members of his immediate family occupied the land, acted as a traitor, and took advantage of the rights of his son-in-law Cassel to do evil.
An official announced the crimes they had committed on the execution ground, which can be said to be exhaustive, and when the scheduled time was up, the execution was immediately announced, causing cheers from onlookers.
Due to the large number of people and the lack of executioners, the first offenders such as Cassel, Locke, and Anthony were the first to be beheaded, while the others had to wait, and it lasted nearly an hour from the first head landing to the last person being beheaded.
It is said that someone went to see the hearts of Cassel and others afterwards and found that they were black. When Shaoyang, who didn't go to the execution ground, heard this rumor, he had to laugh and ignore it, but concentrated on taking stock of the harvest.
After Xu Shu's hypnotization of Kasuo and Locke, Shaoyang learned about the crimes of many of those people, and without any hesitation, he changed his previous attitude and issued an order to raid his house and destroy the door.
"It's a pity that I didn't catch those mysterious people. Shaoyang sighed regretfully, and learned from the arrested Anthony and others that in recent times, several mysterious people have been contacting and supporting them to fight against him.
You don't have to guess to know that those people are the people of the Snark family and the Grand Prince, and if they are caught, not only can they get rid of the trouble, but they may also find evidence of their collusion with werewolves.
Once the evidence of the Snark family's collusion with werewolves is found, no matter how powerful they are, they will also suffer a major blow, after all, it is a taboo for the entire human race.
Maybe there are many people on the continent who have connections with orcs, but it can only be done secretly, if someone colludes with orcs on the surface, or sacrifices the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in a city, they will definitely be sanctioned by the entire human race.
Xu Shu was also taking stock of the harvest, and when he heard Shaoyang's sigh, he comforted without stopping the movements in his hand:
"Now that we know the other party's whereabouts, we will take strict precautions in the future, and there will always be a chance to catch them. However, the harvest of this raid is not small, which is enough to suspend our urgent needs. ”
Indeed, as Xu Shu said, there will always be opportunities in the future, and Shaoyang will no longer be entangled in the mysterious person, and discuss the harvest and arrangement with Xu Shu.
Two thousand gold coins and one hundred thousand silver coins are almost ten times the amount of the Songhai City treasury, which is the accumulation of the Simon family for more than a hundred years, enough for the salary of 20,000 or 30,000 troops for a year, all of which are funded by Shaoyang, as well as a number of scattered money seized by other officials.
The two seventh-level magic crystals made Shaoyang more prepared for summoning generals in the future, and it was impossible to have the strength of the Simon family, and it was estimated that it was given by those mysterious people.
Some other low-level magic crystals were given to Xu Shu to help him break through to the ninth level, and from the battle to repel the werewolves, Shaoyang found that the role of magicians in war was much stronger than that of warriors.
If Xu Shu was a ninth-level great mage at that time, as long as he was well prepared, he would be able to use forbidden spell magic to kill the army of 10,000 werewolves.
In addition, there are more than a dozen shops, more than 3,000 acres of fields in the open and secret, and thousands of stones of grain.
These shops are in good locations, but if you collect rent, there are a lot of gold coins a month, and they are thrown to the newly established Department of Commerce to deal with, and when it comes to the Department of Commerce, you have to mention the restructuring of the government department of Songhai City.
In the past, all affairs were the responsibility of officials, such as the magistrate in charge of law and order, the tax collector in charge of collecting taxes, and the officials who carried out the duties were only subordinate to the officials, and if the officials were replaced, they were mostly replaced with them.
At present, it has been changed to a departmental responsibility system, and various functional departments have been set up, such as the Department of Public Security, the Department of Administration, the Department of Taxation, the Department of Agriculture, the Department of Commerce, etc., and each department has a director in charge of affairs, and the transfer of officials does not affect officials.
More than 3,000 acres of land is what surprises Shaoyang, Simon's family is not as populous as the Xu family, there are only twenty or thirty people in total, and they actually have more than 3,000 acres of land, 100 acres per capita, which is fifty times the average of Songhai City.
Judging from the contract, many of them should have been taken advantage of Casso's rights, and if they could find the bitter master, they would find a way to return it, and if they couldn't find it, they would confiscate it, and they would just be used as tuntian.
With thousands of stones of stored grain, the master of the Simon family plus the servants, there are only two or three hundred people who are full of food, enough for them to eat for four or five years, Shaoyang really doesn't understand why they are saving.
In fact, Simon's family's grain storage is just to hoard Juqi, in previous years, the villages of Songhai City would be looted by orcs or bandits, and it was naturally impossible for Cassel to relieve the people, so they could take the opportunity to sell grain at a high price or exchange land.
"Some of the rest of the property will be sold by the Department of Commerce. "A few boxes of jewelry, the specific value of Shaoyang doesn't know, just like that, Xu Shu will not object.
"I quit. "The matter is done, Xu Shu will not stay longer, there are still a lot of things waiting for him to deal with.
After Xu Shu left, Shaoyang entered the system space, and this time the harvest was not only outside, since the restaurant poisoning incident, there was a series of tasks.
According to the System Wizard, "Hesitation perks may not be completed on the same day, so they are separated from Dailies and used as a separate task system." ”
In fact, what the system elves didn't make clear was that because Shaoyang defeated the werewolf army, his control over Songhai City was improved, and his luck increased a lot, the mission system would change.
At present, the task system is divided into three main parts:
The most rewarding and abundant is the achievement task, that is, the list of tasks that make Shaoyang drool when he looks at it, but he can't do anything for the time being.
The daily tasks that have few rewards but can be completed every day, and now the only role is to bring people to Shaoyang *** value and slowly improve their strength.
The newly independent welfare tasks are also random tasks, which are randomly generated, and the rewards are affected by the difficulty of the task, which can be large or small.
The first appearance of the random task is in the form of a circular task, when Shaoyang completes the first task and reveals the truth in the restaurant, the system elf reminds him that the task is completed and a new task appears.
Re-entering the mission system, the rewards of the three random tasks are already claimable, except for the previously known intelligence +1 and the archer talisman, the unknown reward of the third mission has become a primary summon.
Shaoyang didn't know how to evaluate this reward, not that the reward was bad, but that he got this reward after he ordered to kill nearly a hundred people
"System Elf, is it true that if I don't kill them, I won't get the reward for the number of summons?" Shaoyang expressed his doubts.
