Chapter 36: I Aim to Conquer the Continent

Early in the morning of the second day, Yang Tian and the others came to the City Lord's Mansion, because last night's battle did not destroy the building, when Yang Tian walked to the City Lord's Mansion, everything in it had been neatly placed in an orderly manner, and the patriarchs of those families were already waiting in the courtyard, and when they saw Yang Tian and them coming in, all these people stepped forward together and knelt on one knee.

He said loudly: "See the city lord." ”

These people obviously knelt down towards Yang Tian, and Yang Tian was only slightly stunned, and said, "You guys get up first, I can't be the lord of this city, and the city lord has someone else." ”

And those family patriarchs all looked at each other, not knowing why, but Yang Tiandu had already said so, and they didn't dare to have any opinions, so they quickly got up and stood aside.

At this time, a person walked through the crowd, holding an old man in his hand, and said to Yang Tian: "Young Master Yang, when I was cleaning up the City Lord's Mansion yesterday, I saw that the second person was sneaky, holding something in his hand and wanted to escape, but I caught him, and after a glance, I knew that he was the housekeeper of the Murong family, and I don't know what Young Master Yang should do." ”

"Really?"

"Okay, let him stand aside first, and I'll deal with him myself later." ”

"Yes!"

The man answered, and threw the butler aside, and the butler lay trembling and did not dare to move.

And at this time, there were already some subordinates, and they quickly moved the stool, because there were dozens of large and small families in Agni City, and so many people wanted to squeeze into the hall of the City Lord's Mansion to speak, it would definitely not work, and Yang Tian also saw it in his eyes and did not speak.

The diameter went to the front, and at this time, Yang Tian and his party, only Yang Tian's father and grandfather, Feng Lao, Yang Jinghong and Feng Invincible, Wang and Cheng were the two heads of the family, and the others had already gone back, only the ten demon beasts were still guarding outside the city.

Because last night, Yang Tian ordered that no one should enter or leave this city.

And at this time, there were also a large number of people gathered outside the city, all of them were talking about each other, some of these people were caravans, pulling a large number of goods on the car, some were local residents of Agni City, some of them went out to run errands, and now they just came back, they didn't know what happened last night, and the big and small families of Agni City didn't dare to go out of the city gate at all last night, so these people looked at the dozen demon beasts at the gate of the city, and they looked at it with a blank face.

And in the City Lord's Mansion, everyone sat in turn.

After Yang Tian watched everyone sit down, he looked at the person who was the first to stand up and surrender last night, and the person who also grabbed the housekeeper of the Murong family, and said, "What is your name, how many products are in the family." ”

The person who was called was full of excitement, and hurriedly stood up and said, "Back to Young Master Yang, I am the second rank family of Qi Tiancheng, the head of the Li family, and my name is Li Xiu." ”

"Li Xiu, let me ask you, how many families are there in Qi Tiancheng now?" Yang Tian said to the person named Li Xiu.

"Back to Young Master Yang, there are now thirty-two large and small families in Qi Tiancheng, there are twenty first-grade families, ten second-grade families, two third-grade families, nearly 100 families that do not enter the ranks, and a city with a population of 1.2 million, but most of them are ordinary city citizens. ”

Yang Tian nodded with satisfaction, he didn't expect Li Xiu to say it so clearly, and said, "Then how is the annual spar tribute calculated?"

At this time, Li Xiu pondered for a moment and said: "In this city, the Yipin family pays a tribute of 1,000 spars every year, the second-grade family pays 2,000 spars every year, and the Sanpin family pays 3,000 spars every year, and there are a total of ten towns under Qi Tian City, and one town pays 500 spars to Qi Tian City every year. ”

At this time, Yang Tian also understood that the Yipin family outside Qitian City pays a tribute of five hundred spars every year, which is the same as the spars paid by Black Mountain Town, and the Yipin family in the city has to double the spars paid by the families outside, that is because there are more cultivators in the city, and these families can do the business of cultivators, and there is a large amount of spar income every year, otherwise who wants to live in this city, and it is not surprising that those second-grade families and third-grade families have handed over spars, because when everything comes to the second-grade family, they have enough funds to cultivate alchemists, so that they can do the pill business, where there are cultivators, there is a need for pills, so there is basically no shortage of spars in families above the second grade.

Thinking of this, Yang Tiandao: "Now I plan to let all the families in the city hand over three years of spars first, and each family will subtract two hundred spars a year, I don't know if you have any objections?"

After Yang Tian finished speaking, everyone looked at each other, and everyone immediately talked about it.

Yang Tian saw that no one was talking, so he couldn't help but look around and said, "I don't know if everyone has thought about it." ”

And after everyone heard Yang Tian's voice again, they all stopped talking, and then Li Xiu was the first to stand up and said, "I agree to Young Master Yang's proposal, and our Li family will pay it for three years first." ”

And at this time, everyone looked at Li Xiu, and their teeth itched with hatred, Yang Tian said that he had no pressure on them to pay the three-year spar, and everyone was secretly scolding themselves in their hearts, why didn't they seize this opportunity to perform, and they were taken the lead by this Li Xiu.

"My Chen family agrees. ”

"My Wang family agrees. ”

"My Zhu family agrees. ”

"My Ouyang family agrees. ”

Everyone didn't have time to think about it, and they all rushed to agree.

Seeing this, Yang Tian nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay, since everyone agrees, then this matter is decided." ”

Immediately after Yang Tian, he said: "Li Xiu, this matter will be handed over to you, send the spar here in the afternoon, and all the towns under the jurisdiction of Qi Tiancheng, I don't want them to hand over a crystal, I just need them to pay tribute to Qi Tiancheng every year with four hundred spars of the spirit grass elixir, and this matter will also be handled by sending someone to you." ”

The reason why Yang Tian wanted three years of spars also had his own plans, because Yang Tian wanted to cultivate high-level alchemists and powerful cultivators for the family when he was leaving, so that the strength of the family could be improved, but this would cost a lot of spars, so Yang Tiancai had such a proposal.

And if you want the spirit herb elixir of those towns, not spars, it is because Yang Tian knows the hardships of these towns, they generally do not have alchemists, and it is very difficult to earn spars, but some places are rich in spirit herb elixirs, and the reason why Yang Tian is like this is also to reduce their burden, and he can also use these collected spirit herbs and elixirs to cultivate alchemists.

After Yang Tian finished speaking, Li Xiu was very excited, and hurriedly knelt down on one knee and said, "Young Master Yang, don't worry, I will definitely handle this matter well, and I will never live up to Young Master Yang's cultivation." ”

This Li Xiu is also a smart person, and he knows that what Yang Tian lacks most now is loyal people, so he hurriedly expressed his position.

"You have done a good job, I will definitely not treat you badly, okay, now everyone is scattered, everyone is going to go and get busy, let the city return to normal, outside I will withdraw the demon beasts and let those caravan city people enter the city." Yang Tian said with satisfaction.

"Yes!"

Everyone nodded yes and walked out of the City Lord's Mansion in turn.

After watching everyone leave, Feng Wushu joked at this time: "Xiaotian, you are really the material of the city lord, the arrangement just now and the gathering of people's hearts are really leaky, but you have no intention of taking charge." ”

"Wind City Lord, don't make fun of me, I am determined to break through the continent and pursue a higher realm. Yang Tian shook his head and said.
