After the Jingguan made of human heads shocked the residents of Walker County, and then asked Debra to dispose of the 'rats' who secretly provoked people's feelings, Xu Yue took a few steps forward with the riding beast under his seat, looked at the residents who had calmed down and said a word.

"From today onwards, the price of food in Walker will be the same as the price of food outside the world, and anyone can buy it without a cap. From now on, there will be no more restrictions on food in Walkershire. This is my promise to you, Xu Yue, the Marquis of the Kingdom of Xia. If you are willing to accept my rule and become my people, you can go back to the town. Those who do not wish to accept it can leave Walker with their belongings. But if anyone doesn't want to submit to me, and wants to make trouble in secret, then the Walker County underground is the end of these people. ”

After speaking, Xu Yue pointed to the mountain of human heads and said.

Looking at the six or seven meters tall Mantou Mountain, all the residents of Walker County were frightened, and at the same time, they were very happy about what Xu Yue said about the unlimited supply of food. Walker County is strategically located as a trading hub that connects three countries at the same time and is a source of magical materials in the Nightsong Forest, where both the inhabitants and the underground forces here can make a lot of money.

From this point of view, the people of Walker County should be very rich. But in reality, this is not the case. Because the weakness of Walker County itself is that it does not produce food, or that it does not produce enough food for a small gang to consume. Therefore, if foreign forces want to meddle in the interests of Walker County, they have always used crops and other things as bargaining chips. In addition, some forces simply intend to make a profit from it. So the price of food in Walker County has always been ridiculously high.

In the case of the local underground in Walkershire, the price of food they buy from outside is five to six times higher than elsewhere. And when the local underground forces sell these grains to the residents, the price will rise by about double. In this way, the price of food for local residents is more than 10 times that of residents in other areas.

As for why, despite such high food prices, the local population still insists on living in such a place controlled by underground forces. That's because even with such high food prices, the benefits of local residents are still better than those of people living elsewhere. Moreover, most of the residents who come to live here have either committed crimes elsewhere and have to hide here, or their ancestors are criminals exiled here, and they have lived here for generations, and it is difficult for them to leave here to seek a living in a strange place. It's not just people on the other side of the world who feel this way.

Now Xu Yue promised to reduce the price of grain to the same level as the outside world, if he could really do it. That's about a six-seven-fold increase in the income of the residents of Walkershire, so that the residents of Walkershire want to become rich is no longer an unattainable dream.

For civilians, being able to eat, clothe, and have a certain amount of savings is always the most important thing in life. As for who rules Walker County, they don't have much in mind. If Xu Yue, the marquis of the Xia Kingdom, could bring them a better life than those previous underground forces, then supporting such a ruler would not be an unacceptable choice for them.

With Xu Yue's promise, the residents of Walker County began to disperse. The Guards began to take over the management of the whole of Walker County. With Debra, a former high-level executive who is very familiar with the major forces. The rats and shadows in the town who were ambushed by various underground forces have been found. And after knowing that their gang has been destroyed, most of these secrets don't want to go against the escort team anymore, and only a few diehards still want to take the opportunity to cause trouble. However, for these people, Xu Yue directly offered a reward of 100 catties of grain for catching a person in the town.

Although he had promised that the food would be at the same price as the outside world in the future, he had not officially started selling it yet, and the local residents of Walker County were extremely paranoid about food because of their previous experience, so in just one day, those deeply buried shadows were caught by the residents of the Northland. If it had been before, these residents were afraid that if they did so, they would be retaliated against by the local underground. But now that the people of those underground forces are almost dead, no one cares about the threat of those underground forces.

Walker County was almost completely cleansed. Both the remnants of the underground forces and the nails sent by the outside forces have been cleaned up, but it is obviously unrealistic to want to know all of them among the hundreds of thousands of people. On the day when the escort team was stationed in Walker County, those large and small forces that were violated by Xu Yue's actions in Walker County already knew Xu Yue's bold words.

After hearing this news, all the leaders of the forces sneered. In a place like Walkershire, if these forces don't nod their heads, it would be wishful thinking for other forces to send food to Walkershire. These forces ordered a complete blockade of the food supply in Walker County while waiting to see Xu Yue's joke. Now many people are waiting to see Xu Yue, the marquis, who has to bow to them when he can't get the food.

At the same time, after seeing Xu Yue's successful occupation of Walkershire, many forces once again started the idea of Walkershire, and many forces were ready to move in private for a while. However, due to the strength of the escort team and the two seventh-level powerhouses of Kailus and Gabriel, no one dared to directly stretch out their claws for a while. However, it would be difficult to say if it continued like this, after all, the escort force only had 4,000 people, which was still too small for managing a town of more than 100,000 people.

A town with more than 100,000 people is no different from a small town, and managing such a place is not just a house. In the past, under the balance of the five major forces and many small and medium-sized underground forces, this place had its own rules. However, with the collapse of the local underground forces, the previous rules have disappeared, which has made some people with ulterior motives among the local residents a little impatient. In less than three days since the convoy took over the town, there were several vicious cases of robbery, theft, and rape. The attitude of the escort team to this is one, catch it and kill it directly. There is no such thing as a trial.

In this way, the commotion of those who were secretly restless was suppressed at a certain time, but it was also a fact that the local order collapsed. Relying on the high-pressure policy of killing is fine for a while, but in the long run, chaos is inevitable. Xu Yue was not worried about this. For on the fourth day, Ivo arrived here with the remaining 6,000 of the convoy and a large group of about 1,000 people.

The capture of Walker was only the first step in Caro's plan, and it was arguably the easiest step of the process. The next step is to manage and build Walker County into a thriving city. They had already discussed before leaving, and when the convoy occupied Walkershire, Ivo would immediately move to Walkershire with all the people of the Chamber of Commerce. Even most of the Chamber of Commerce's industries will move to Walker County. After all, this is the focus of their exhibition in the future.

During the two years of preparation, Ivo purchased slaves not only to fill the manpower of the guards, but also to buy slaves for management talents. There are not many managerial talents among the slaves. With great effort, Ivo managed to gather about 600 people, plus some literate people who could do some simple work, and just enough people to gather about 1,000 people.

However, this is enough for Walkershire, which currently has a population of more than 100,000 people, and these talents will only be able to enter Walkershire as soon as they enter it. Immediately began to take over a qiē in Walker County following a process that had been memorized before. In order to guarantee the safety of these people. Carlo has mobilized 3,000 convoy personnel to escort these talents and their reception.

This process will inevitably touch some interests of the locals, but when Xu Yue began to sell grain in large quantities at affordable prices, those voices of opposition were immediately drowned out by the cheers of the people.

What made Xu Yue feel fortunate was that although Talumia Big 6 was very different from many species on both sides because of the rich magical elements and the different worlds, some crops such as rice and sorghum still had some of the same as the earth. It's just that because of the rich magical element on Talumia's side, the fruits of these crops are larger than those of the earth, but the difference between the two is not outrageous. It only seems that the food on this side of the earth seems to be the food produced by the barren land. The inhabitants of Walker County have no opinion on this, as long as the portion is sufficient. Large or small grains are not eaten the same yet, and there is no difference in taste between the two.

Xu Yue relied on the gold brought to the earth in exchange for huge wealth in two years, and at the same time, he secretly hoarded a staggering amount of food in two years. However, because it was completed over a period of two years, and the purchase was made from all over the world, it did not attract the attention of the state authorities.

This time, he took advantage of the opportunity of the arrival of the Ivo Chamber of Commerce to let people vacate more than a dozen huge warehouses, and it took more than three days to transport half of the food hoarded on the earth. This food is enough to support the consumption of more than 100,000 people in Walker County for more than two years.

With the addition of management professionals, the management of Walker County is quickly on the right track. At the same time, after settling down, Aiwo's Chamber of Commerce began to operate in full swing. In the past two years, with sufficient funds, Ivo has expanded the business of the Chamber of Commerce to four of the seven kingdoms of mankind. Although it is much weaker than those top chambers of commerce in terms of goods sold and sales channels, it is only a step worse than these chambers of commerce in terms of profitability.

This time, Xu Yue was almost open to providing a large number of pure containers to Ivo, and at the same time, there was no longer any restriction on the number of containers sold below level eight. In addition, the orders and gold coins of the elves also arrived soon, and the amount of gold coins in their hands that had been sold out rose again for a while.

Under Caro's arrangement, Xu Yue directly used gold coins to gather the residents of Walker County to become workers, and even hired a large number of dwarven craftsmen to enter Walker County with a large amount of money, and carried out large-scale planning and construction of Walker County's buildings and streets. All of a sudden, the whole of Walker County became a huge construction site, and almost every distance you walked saw all kinds of work going on.

Although Taramia does not have all kinds of construction machinery like Earth Technology, this world also has magic and magic equipment specially used for construction, which is really much faster than the construction degree of Earth in terms of efficiency. After all, the earth still needs to mix the cement before pouring it, but on Talumia's side, it only takes a spell to turn mud into stone to turn the walls made of dirt into hard rock, saving even the process of waiting for the soil to dry out.

At the same time as the construction of Walker County. Those big and small forces who were waiting to see Xu Yue's jokes were dumbfounded. Originally, they were still estimating that the grain in the hands of Xu Yue, the marquis, would last for two or three days at most, but they didn't expect that not only did they not look at them at all, but they turned around and took out a large amount of grain to sell. The price is even cheaper than what is on the market. And looking at the posture, such a food supply is not a little pressure on Xu Yue at all.

After reacting, those large and small forces were furious, and they frantically mobilized their respective relationships to find out the source of this batch of food, trying to find out which force dared to offend the union of so many forces against them. But the more they checked, the more confused they became, and there was no sign of a large grain trade at all near here. And if it is a long-distance transaction, then it must be transported by vehicle, which is impossible to hide from the big and small forces that are staring at Walkershire. As for using high-grade storage rings to transport grain, they had never thought of transporting such a large amount of grain. Even if it is shipped in two or three shipments, the amount of premium storage rings required is not a small amount, and no one will go crazy to buy so many premium storage rings. Even if the funds that require phone bills are placed in the Seven Human Kingdoms, it will make the high-level of the kingdom feel distressed, and Xu Yue's Chamber of Commerce will not be able to reach that kind of Cheng Dù.

The forces big and small are going crazy, and after many investigations to no avail, they have set their sights back on Walkershire. Hordes of spies continued to pour into Walkershire. These guys tried their best to find out where the food came from. It's a pity not to say that it's them, even the members of their own escort team don't know how this batch of grain came from, they just received the order to guard the grain warehouse and came here, and the grain was already in the warehouse.

Now that the strategy of cutting off the grain route is useless, those forces have simply put aside their previous concerns, and their greed for the interests of Walker County has made them continue to resort to various means. Sent people to poison the grain, bribed the locals to burn the grain, and some forces even reassembled a team of nearly 20,000 people to pretend to be bandits and directly wanted to capture Walker County.

However, these methods came to naught under Carlo's arrangement. The only few forces that were almost gathered by smashing the pot and selling iron, and wanted to fight. It was even more defeated by the six thousand panicked members of the escort team under a single charge. However, this time, the members of the convoy did not kill on a large scale, but took most of the 20,000 people prisoner. In this way, Walker County, which was short of labor, instantly had an additional free laborer with about 178,000 people.

With the addition of this batch of hardcover labor, the construction of Walker County was suddenly much faster, and the originally chaotic streets became much more tidy after the replanning. Many of the haphazard buildings along the roadside have been torn down and replaced by neat-looking shops.

In order to be able to renovate and build Walker County, Xu Yue bought most of the old buildings, and the original owners of the buildings either moved to the outskirts of the town or bought the rebuilt buildings at a relatively good price. Of course, disputes are indispensable in this process, and the nail household's deposit zài is also deposited on Talumia's side.

But thanks to the aristocracy practiced by Talumia. In the aristocracy of the Kingdom of Chia, the lord had absolute jurisdiction over his domain, and although he could not regard the lives and property of his subjects as his own, as the Kingdom of Gruni did, no one could say anything about dealing with those who dared to disobey reasonable orders.

For those who wanted to take the opportunity to make trouble or wanted a big buck, Xu Yue simply confiscated his property and expelled the matter, which was much more cruel than the business on the other side of the earth, and the other people still felt that there was nothing wrong with him doing this as a lord. This suddenly made Xu Yue feel that it was a very promising thing to carry out demolition in Talumia.

Although he experienced the experience of forced demolition on Talumia's side, Xu Yue did not feel the slightest guilt about it. The conditions he gave to those people were good enough, whether they were relocated or bought to rebuild new buildings, and they took a great advantage in a large way, at least when Walker County was renewed, and the price of both the relocated houses and the rebuilt buildings was much higher than the price they bought. None of those troublemakers made trouble because the compensation was not enough.

The redevelopment of the whole of Walker County lasted for a whole year, as a large number of residents moved to the outskirts of the town, and the streets of the town were widened several times. This has led to a much expansion of the whole town of Walker into the periphery. In the past, Walker County was not small, but both the streets and buildings were very crowded. But after Xu Yue ordered the main street to be widened for a few days and the buildings on both sides were rebuilt. The whole town already has a spacious and tidy feel.

In some ways, Xu Yue directly adopts the planning model of the earth, just looking at the flower beds on both sides of the street and the garbage cans set up in each section, which makes people feel like they are slowly moving into the city streets of the earth. Moreover, Xu Yue even spent a lot of money to set up magic street lamps at intervals on both sides of the main street, which were lit by special personnel every day after dark, which made the residents of Walker County even more excited.

However, construction in Walker County is only in its first phase, with only the main street and the buildings on both sides of the street being renovated, and the large number of residential buildings not much touched. After all, the amount of money needed to rebuild a town of more than 100,000 people is too large. Even if the huge profits made by the Pure Container business kept the gold coins pouring in like a tidal wave, it was still a drop in the bucket for the big hole of Walker County.

However, Xu Yue and Aiwo did not have the slightest worry about this, after a period of buffering. The merchants who had left Walker returned to Walkershire, and were both surprised and praised by the changes to Walkershire's main streets.

For these smugglers, Xu Yue changed the protection fees that these merchants had to pay to the local underground forces to collect taxes. Although the tax rate is still intimidatingly high compared to the taxes on formal traders in other places. But for these smugglers, the overall cost is much lower than before. The profits in their hands are even more, after all, they used to need to pay protection fees to several forces to ensure the safety of the caravan, but now they only need to pay taxes to Xu Yue's family.

The reduction in consumption made Walkershire's already prosperous business even more prosperous, and after Walkershire's environment improved, some official merchants and caravans began to be willing to pass through here, and the monthly tax alone could make up for a lot of Walkershire's construction costs.

Xu Yue and Ivo's plan is for the construction of Walker County to last for eight to ten years, and they plan to develop Walker County into a large city no less than Black Rock City. Even in terms of population size and the city's defenses, it is a big cut above Black Rock City. After all, although Walker County is located between the three kingdoms and has a very advantageous business environment, it is also because of this location that it is easy to be attacked by other forces during the war.

Don't say anything else. Just to hold on to the one-year occupation time, the convoy paid a huge price. The Fifth Legion, which had been wiped out by a single detachment, had not been less aggressive against Walker County during the year. At the beginning, the Fifth Army also took into account the orders from above, and did not dare to send troops directly to attack Walker County, so they could only send people to block the border, and at the same time prohibit caravans from passing through Walker County, they also sent small groups to loot and kill those smuggling merchants, so as to cause problems for the economy of Walker County.

However, their actions were stopped soon after, and the people who stopped them were from their upper echelons. After all, those smuggling merchants and smuggling caravans can not have some backstage, and even these smuggling caravans themselves serve some of the great nobles of the Gruni Kingdom. The Fifth Legion's approach completely annoyed some of the kingdom's bigwigs, and if it weren't for the importance of the Fifth Legion, perhaps this legion would have been withdrawn to the country and severely cleaned up.

However, as the year approached, even some of the upper echelons of the Gruni Kingdom couldn't sit still, and in a year's time, the actual occupation of Walker County by the Kingdom of Sia was about to become a reality. Although this is not a big loss for the Gruni Kingdom, the loss of face is certain, after all, it is equivalent to losing to their old enemy Kingdom.

In the last month, the Gruni Kingdom even disregarded the previous tacit agreement and directly sent 50,000 men of the Fifth Army to attack Walker County. However, before the Red Eagle Legion of the Kingdom of Sia wanted to send out a team, the escort team directly gathered 10,000 people, and there was a hard-fought battle with the bandits pretended by the team of the Fifth Legion not far from Walkershire.

The outcome of the battle completely stunned all those who followed the battle, and only 3,000 of the 50,000 men of the Fifth Legion fled back to their garrison, while the convoy lost 1,500 men, which made Ivor almost cry in distress. The Gruni Kingdom, which suffered a big loss, suffered this dumb loss under the mobilization of the army of the Xia Kingdom, and acquiesced in the actual occupation of Walker County by Xu Yue, the Marquis of the Xia Kingdom. This caused an uproar among the surrounding forces, and no one dared to underestimate Xu Yue, the new marquis who had been less than two years old, and the aristocratic circle of the Xia Kingdom finally accepted Xu Yue, a new nobleman.

After completing the actual occupation of Walkershire, Xu Yue finally breathed a sigh of relief, and now he had finally liberated the center of his life from the construction of Walkershire. Now he is standing in a remote corner of Walker County, where a building is under construction.

Looking at this pagoda-like building, Xu Yue's eyes were full of excitement, and the construction of a mage tower of his own had finally begun. (To be continued......)
