Chapter 40 Empty of people and money
These days, as she continues to practice hard, Le Ling found that this mass of lenses appeared more and more frequently from her palm, and she could control it as she wanted, and she could always feel an unprecedented spiritual power in her body on a rampage, hitting her limbs full of spiritual power, and it seemed to break out of her body, and finally returned to nothingness, disappeared without a trace, and then the neon clothes on her body became more and more full of aura.
It seems that this is the 'fire fighting technique', it seems that he was a blessing in disguise and inadvertently got the inheritance of the red-robed old man, but who is the red-robed old man, why did he teach this 'fire fighting technique' to her, why is there that looming mansion in the hell cave with only flames? What exactly is that place? Also, what is the 'tears of heaven' that the old man in the red robe said? Where should she go to find the 'Tears of Heaven'.
Puzzled, Le Ling, who retracted her thoughts, got out of bed, and now, this face will change back to its original appearance at night, which restricts her movement a little, she doesn't want too many people to see her face, especially in Dancheng, she thinks that the burned face is more convenient for her to go down.
Early the next morning, Leling, who had just gotten up, was called to the palace by a jade decree without warning.
On a splendid palace, on a soft seat made of gold, Luo Xue, who raised his neck and looked arrogant, swept his gaze over the frightened county lord with an incomparably arrogant attitude, and there was endless disdain and indifference in that gaze, and then he seemed to casually fall on Le Ling's face, and then what appeared in his eyes was incomparably disgusted, so that gaze fell on a jade artifact on the side.
No, such an ugly face would have tarnished her noble eyes.
However, Luo Xue was a little curious about this unattractive slave owner's neon dress, she didn't understand how such a disgusting slave owner could have such a colorful and gorgeous dress!
"Say, what the hell is going on? Your Highness has received news that there are fewer and fewer slaves being sold everywhere, and there is also a lot less bamboo food and silver in hand, have you ever wondered where this problem comes from? How did you become the county lord, and you, what are you doing, the newfound slave owner? Why don't you notice that you have fewer and fewer slaves under your control? ”
In the face of His Royal Highness Luo Xue's aggressiveness, the county lord kneeling on the ground was trembling, his legs and feet were weak, and the beads of sweat on his forehead were rolling down one by one. Only some of the rest went into his own pocket, but now it was good, she didn't ask why there was so much more money in the account in front of her, and where it came from, but she only knew how the bamboo food and gold and silver treasures that came in the account were getting less and less.
But he also understands where the problem is, blame himself for being too obsessed with money, too eager to work, he thought that the land sold would go around in a circle and eventually return to his hands, and most of this kind of grain would go into his hands, but who would have thought that this slave owner turned out to be a ruthless character, I don't know when a large number of forces appeared on the territory of the south and north of the city, these forces are no longer his ability to control, and he can't tear his face with the slave owner for this matter for a while, I can only endure it first.
I thought that after three hundred years, I would be able to revitalize this game of chess after the new batch of slaves arrived, but who would have thought that Her Royal Highness the princess would come to this Dancheng so quickly, so this matter has become the current situation.
Oops! Didn't he put a knife on his neck with his own hand and wait to be slaughtered!
The county lord who felt aggrieved in his heart was frightened and regretted not at the beginning, he knew that he would be like this, he was not greedy, how can he be good now! But no, during this time, there were always thefts in the house, and all the bamboo food and silver that he had not been in hand for a long time were gone, not to mention, and even the gold and silver treasures before were gone.
Glancing at the slave owner kneeling beside him, this county lord was speechless, he couldn't say that he was stupid enough to sell all those slaves to the slave owner, he had no right to ask anymore, and most of the money went into the pocket of the princess.
He still wants his head, so the county lord had to be dumb, I didn't dare to say a word for a long time, I was scared to the point of urine.
Looking at the two people kneeling at her feet, Luo Xue's heart was very bright, this county lord was picked up by her, and he has been behind her for many years, thinking that this dog slave is very greedy but also very life-saving, so he should not dare and will not do anything out of the ordinary.
It's the slave owner, who has only been in office for two years, has lost the slaves in Dancheng, and the bamboo food in the land they saw in the south of the city when they entered the city just now is very good, and the faces of those slaves are also smiling one by one. All those bamboo foods fell into the hands of those slaves?
All these slaves have turned over and become the masters?
Luo Xue, who thought about it like this, suddenly understood in her heart, it seems that the problem is here, but the land in the south of the city has always belonged to this dog slave, and almost all of this kind of grain has been handed over, so why haven't you seen the grain to pay tribute in the past two years? Could it be the credit of this slave owner again?
As soon as she thought of this, Luo Xue glanced at the attendants on the side, and a bright sword came to the county lord.
"Tell me why there are so many slaves to farm in that small piece of land south of the city, and why there is no harvest when there is so much bamboo food? Where did all that food go? Where did those slaves come from, and who sent them all to farming? ”
"This, this, this is the case, in the past two years, there has been a famine in Dancheng, and many people have not been able to eat, so this slave has arranged for some slaves to plant these fields, hoping to produce more food to satisfy hunger."
The county lord glanced at the silent slave owner again, and wanted to bite her to pieces, thinking that she had done this, and now that there was a problem, he had to bear it, why did she take advantage of all the cheap things in this world.
