Chapter 466: The Viscount takes office
A few days later, Mei Yi came to her fiefdom of Hoshino Town.
In the old town, almost the entire town came out to greet the human lord.
Hoshino Town is a border town, but it's the size of a flower spirit. Every time the monster invaded, Hoshino Town grew a little biggerβand everyone wanted to stay away from this unfortunate place.
Mei Yi grew up in Hoshino Town as a child and is very familiar with this place. The people here are fierce, there are many outlaws, and although there is a consular district, the lord has never been in place.
Who thinks their lives are long?
In the crowd, some people with unkind faces glanced at each other, armed with sticks, rushed out, stopped in front of Meiyi's convoy, and said viciously: "Human, Hoshino Town is the territory of our Evil Tiger Gang. We don't want lords, let alone lowly humans! Leave the wagon behind and get out of here! β
The people of Hoshino Town watched the excitement there, and from time to time they coaxed: "Get out, human!" We've never had a lord here, and we don't pay a penny in taxes! β
Mei Yi, who was sitting on the horse, said: "Jiuli, give them some color to see, don't kill people." β
As soon as Mei Yi's words fell, Jiu Li Qian flashed in front of the villain in the lead, smashed his full teeth with a punch, kicked him to the ground, stared at his back with his knees, grabbed his hair, and said, "Open your eyes and remember the appearance of our master." β
The villain let out an earth-shattering wail.
His accomplice would never have thought that a girl with a beautiful face and moon appearance would be so good at her skills and so hot, and she would be frightened all of a sudden. After reacting, they rushed towards Jiuli together.
Jiuli raised his foot and stomped on the ground fiercely, and the earth shook violently.
One by one, those people stood unsteadily, fell to the ground, and cried for their father and mother in fright.
Jiuli said softly: "Next time, my feet will be stepping on your heads." β
At this moment, a purple lightning bolt swept in front of Jiu Li and hit a tree not far away, and the crown of the tree fell to the ground with a bang.
Jiu Li sighed, looked at the thunderbolt spirit master in the crowd, and smiled: "Kid, do you know where your spirit magic came from?" β
Before the man could answer, Jiuli raised his hand, and the entire sky changed color, thousands of lightning bolts slashed to the ground, and the forests and grasslands of Hoshino Town all burned, and countless deep ravines appeared on the ground.
The people gathered here to watch the excitement were so frightened that they knelt down one by one and kept kowtowing.
The thunderbolt psychic was so frightened that he fled.
Mei Yi waved her hand, and the carriage continued to move forward.
He said in a deep voice: "All those who have committed major crimes such as murder, robbery, adultery, coercion, arson, poisoning, harassment of priests, and the unknown source of huge amounts of property in Hoshino Town will give you two days to surrender to the lord's mansion. If I take the initiative to find you, it won't be so comfortable. Of course, you can also escape, so that I can justifiably kill you directly for resisting arrest. Mei Fan, I'll leave it to you. β
Mei Fan raised his long sword and said, "Yes, Lord Meiyi!" β
Mei Yi said again: "Jiuli, tell those residents of the town who have been oppressed that they can come to the Viscount's Mansion for help at any time. β
* * *
For the next two days, a few hundred people came to the Viscount's Mansion every day to turn themselves in, and there were nearly a thousand people in total.
There were also some villains who wanted to sneak out of Hoshino Town, and were directly captured by Mei Fan and others or killed on the spot.
Joke, under the nose of the red-haired fox, who can escape?
Mei Yi took out a copy of the Melovi Code from the crack and said, "Anyone who has turned himself in, except for those who have committed the most heinous crimes, can have their sentences commuted." and where arrest is resisted, the offense is increased by one degree. I don't have much patience, and if there was a law and order incident in Hoshino Town seven days later, I wouldn't be so polite. β
So, in front of all the surrenderers and victims, Meiyi spent a week to deal with all the backlog of cases. The leaders of the Evil Tiger Gang, the Black Snake Gang, the Jiaolong Gang, the Giant Whale Gang and other gangs were all hanged in the town's troubles, and most of the others were sent to mining, and there were some minor crimes, and Mei Yi did not pursue them again.
How could these gang members be slaughtered like this? They conspire to resist, but where will they be Jiuli's opponents?
After seven days, Hoshino Town's atmosphere was completely new.
After that, Mei Yi went to the temple of the town to visit the local priest, and when he saw the dilapidated welfare house, he was full of emotion and said, "Priest Matiana, are there children named Caroline and Illya here?" β
Mathea was surprised, "My lord, how do you know? These two children had just been sent to our temple. β
Mei Yi looked at the children in the welfare home who were all dressed in black priest uniforms, where could she recognize who was who? He thought for a moment and said, "Can the children in the welfare home have enough to eat?" β
Mathea shook her head and said, "Full, hungry." Now that there is a civil war in the kingdom, who will care about these children? Many of these children's families are nobles who are against the royal family, and it is already a great mercy for the kingdom to spare their lives. β
Mei Yi said: "I see that the priests are also yellow and thin......
Mathea shook her head and didn't say anything more.
Mei Yi said: "Don't be discouraged, Miss Priest, hurry up and prepare a budget and ask Miss Jiuli for money." The expenses of the priests, the expenses of the children, the expenses of prayer, do not leave any one behind. Since I am fortunate enough to be your lord, I will not sit idly by. β
Mathea was stunned.
Two days later, she took the prepared budget, went to the Viscount's Mansion with trepidation, and found Miss Jiuli.
Jiuli took the budget and looked at it, and hurriedly shook his head: "No, no, no, no, no!" This one doesn't work! β
Mei Tia hurriedly said: "Miss Jiuli, we have carefully calculated. Forty-four children are to be fed, at least two silver coins a day, and seven hundred silver coins a year. Our four priests ......"
Speaking of this, Mathea suddenly said, "Miss Jiuli, do you think this is okay?" Cut the cost of sixty silver coins a year for the four priests. If the cost for the kids is still too much, then ......"
She gritted her teeth and said, "Chop seven hundred silver coins to two hundred silver coins!" In this troubled world, it's good to be able to live, how can you be demanding to eat enough every day! As long as you live, maybe one day something good will happen! β
Immediately, she begged, "Miss Jiuli, do you think this is okay?" β
Mei Yi, who was hiding in the shadows, wiped her eyes.
This Lady Priest is the same priest who took care of him before.
To be honest, he didn't have a particularly good impression of this priest. Because he was always hungry when he was a child, and he was often instructed to chop wood and farm, his childhood memories were full of exhaustion and fatigue.
Now, he finally knew.
This priest has already done everything he can just to keep them alive.
Jiu Li said: "Miss Priest, don't get excited, I mean, this budget is too incomplete. What can more than forty children eat with two coins a day? In addition to eating, what about the children's clothes? What about toys? What about books? What about stationery? What about tourism? β
Mathea was dumbfounded.
Jiuli said again: "What about the salary of the priest? What about the installation fee? How much does it cost to conduct a prayer service? What about heating subsidies? β
Just when Mathea thought that Jiu Li was laughing at her, Jiu Li opened the drawer, took out two gold bricks, handed them to Madia, and said, "These two gold bricks are worth about 10,000 silver coins, which will be used for the first half of the temple's expenses." If it's not enough to come again, our Viscount's Mansion lacks everything, but it is not short of money. β
Mathea put the heavy gold bricks in her shabby cloth bag, and walked out of the viscount's mansion without even saying thank you.
One of the things she kept saying was: I'm dreaming.
Even if it's a dream, let me have a good dream.
* * *
Although the order of Hoshino Town has changed, the word "poor" has not changed.
Rich and easy to do, Meiyi began to build a large number of buildings, building a new Viscount Palace and Melove University, repairing roads, dredging rivers, and cashing for work. The entire town is under construction, and almost every family in Hoshino Town is involved in the construction of the town.
No one is hungry, and people's hearts are slowly stabilized.
The temple was also torn down and rebuilt, and Priest Matiana, Priest Beatrice, Priest Emera, and Priest Xiqi took the children to Hoshino Elementary School for the time being, where they taught them to read and write.
A group of young college teachers selected by Dean Xilu for Meiyi also came.
Because the academy has not yet been built, they discuss every day what this academy should look like. Although they have different opinions, they all agree that this must become the most open, inclusive, and greatest academy in the Elven Kingdom.
When she heard Jiu Li say this, Mei Yi smiled and said, "They really dare to say that it is obviously a university in the middle of nowhere." These people are still too young to have been beaten by life. β
Jiu Li said: "Master, why are you so keen on establishing your own academy?" β
Mei Yi said: "You have more Warcraft genes than human genes, and you have obtained the longevity bonus of Warcraft. Spirits have more human genes than Warcraft genes, and the power of Warcraft can cause a huge burden on their bodies and greatly shorten their lifespan. I want to finally solve these problems. As it had been before, everything went well, and it would take at least a thousand years to develop the corresponding technology. β
Jiuli said disapprovingly: "A thousand years, that's pretty fast?" β
Mei Yi said with a black line on her face: "Now the lifespan of ordinary people in the Elf Kingdom is only thirty or forty years old, do you think they are all the same as you?" β
While the two were talking, Will knocked on the door and said, "Master, there is an unnamed person outside the door who wants to see you, it is a Terran man, about thirty years old. β
When Mei Yi walked to the reception room, when she saw the person in front of her, she smiled and said, "Lord Qiling, why are you here?" β
When Qi Ling saw Mei Yi, she was stunned for a while before she said, "Mei Yi? I remember that on the third birthday of the little girl, you went to the Windy Land to congratulate you. Turns out, you're the Viscount of Hoshino Town? β
Mei Yi said with a smile: "I spent money to buy the viscount position not long ago, in order to give myself a place to live. How did you get here? Are Lady Evangelin and Kira okay? β
