You must know that all businessmen are characters who are unprofitable and cannot afford to be early, saying that they do not accept the three-year tax exemption policy because they have a bad conscience, so they do not accept the three-year tax exemption policy, and pay taxes directly to Li Yunyang, he will not believe Li Yunyang.

As soon as the merchants stepped aside, the nobles of Fort Artley also said respectfully to Li Yunyang: "Your Excellency, I agree with President Huntley's idea, although we nobles can't pay a lot of taxes for you, we can contribute our own modest efforts to manage Fort Arte, as long as you give us a symbolic reward." ”

Li Yunyang didn't think about using the nobles in the territory to manage the people. After all, in the eyes of ordinary people, the aristocracy was born superior, and it was a matter of course to be managed by them.

It's just the appearance of the nobles in the town of Parvas, which made Li Yunyang directly dispel this idea, he would rather do more things by himself than let those dirty guys act recklessly in the government affairs of his territory.

And now the nobles and merchants of Atburgh are completely different from those guys in Pavas Town, as if they knew Li Yunyang's thunderous methods in Pavas in advance, so they deliberately made this appearance to cater to his ideas.

However, Wager and Herris, who were stared at by Li Yunyang, all shrugged their shoulders and showed that they didn't know anything about this matter, saying that the merchants and nobles had nothing to do with them.

Li Yunyang looked at these nobles and businessmen for a while, and found that there was no abnormal look on their faces, before he smiled and said, "Maybe you have heard some rumors, but I can tell you clearly, if you are trying to show loyalty to me, there is no need to do so, because what I said will never change!"

But Huntley shook his head and said, "My lord, it seems that you have misunderstood us, and the reason why we made such a request is only so that the people of Fort Artre can live better. You should know what life was like when Watson Gill ruled Fort Arte, and although we were profit-seeking merchants, we were also the people of Fort Arteter. ”

These words seemed to be completely indifferent to personal gains and losses, but they made Li Yunyang smile and said: "Huntley, what you said seems to have a little truth, but what does this have to do with your taxes? I can tell you clearly, as long as you do things according to my rules, I will not charge you a penny more in taxes!"

Seeing Li Yunyang's smile, a trace of anger suddenly appeared on Huntley's face, he stared straight at Li Yunyang's eyes, and said word by word: "Lord Lord, I don't know, we want to make the residents of Fort Arte better, what is ridiculous, you better give us an explanation!"

As soon as these words came out, the merchants and nobles standing behind Huntley also stood in a row with him, all staring at Li Yunyang, as if they were angered by his words.

And the expressions of these nobles and businessmen made Li Yunyang suddenly understand the reason why they said those words just now.

These guys must have heard the rumors from the small town of Parvas, and they wanted to use the pretext of doing good deeds for the people of Fort Artere to seize control of Fort Arte from Li Yunyang before he established his prestige in Fort Artere!

Just as Li Yunyang encountered obstacles when he took over as the lord of the small town of Parvas, Li Yunyang was an outsider to Atburg.

Even the civilians of Fort Art, fed up with Watsongil's oppression, accepted Li Yunyang as their lord and served him in the battle with Watsongill.

However, the nobles and merchants who claimed to be orthodox in Fort Atte never regarded Li Yunyang as their lord. After all, at the time of Watson's reign, they were different from the oppressed civilians, they were the gainers of the blood and sweat of the commoners, not the victims!

And because Li Yunyang was anxious to recapture the town of Parvas, he neglected to carry out the follow-up management of Fort Arte, and did not establish prestige among these nobles and merchants. And the news of Li Yunyang's disposal of the Pavas nobles and merchants somehow spread to their ears.

These guys, who originally planned to negotiate with Li Yunyang about the division of interests, discussed a plan to deceive Li Yunyang's trust and then set him up in Fort Art.

In their view, most of the policies implemented by Li Yunyang are beneficial to the common people, but they are of little use to the upper ruling class. Therefore, these people judged that as long as they used the affairs of the common people as a breakthrough, they would be able to gain Li Yunyang's appreciation and carry out their plans.

It's a pity that these nobles and merchants, compared to the sinister and vicious guys of Parvas, are really more than a little bit worse, and after a clumsy performance, Li Yunyang judged their true thoughts.

Being stared at by many nobles and businessmen, Li Yunyang smiled, and laughed loudly, which suddenly made the people who were staring at him and wanted him to apologize feel empty.

After a long while, Li Yunyang snorted coldly and said: "Actually, if you do business in peace and live your aristocratic life, I didn't plan to trouble you, but you are so restless, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

"The subordinates are here!" Hearing Li Yunyang shouting his name, Wagle immediately stood up and asked, "Lord Allen, what instructions do you have?"

Li Yunyang sneered at these weak-hearted nobles and businessmen, and said: "Write down all their names, remember that they will have to pay taxes to me every month in accordance with the regulations, not a single cent less, if any of them dare to leave Fort Arte with their families, they will directly send troops to chase and kill, whether they live or die!"

To deal with this group of brainless guys, Li Yunyang simply didn't even use the trick of 'Bairi Dan', and it was the most correct way to show the knife directly.

Without giving these nobles and businessmen a chance to justify, Li Yunyang waved his hand and said: "Now, get out of here, don't try to show off your cleverness in front of me, otherwise I don't mind killing chickens and monkeys!"

Before the words fell, everyone who had planned to stalemate with Li Yunyang for a while left the hall of the Lord's Mansion one after another under the drive of Wagger.

Seeing that everyone was running away, Li Yunyang turned to look at Herris and said, "Aren't you going to explain this matter to me?"

The temperament of the nobles and merchants of Atburg must have been well known to Herris, who had done the investigation. And he actually didn't remind Li Yunyang of his intention at all just now, but watched the excitement from the sidelines, which made Li Yunyang very annoyed, and planned to teach Herris a lesson and let him know how to write the word allegiance!

However, Herris pretended to be a nobody, but complimented Li Yunyang and said: "Lord Lord, I think that your wisdom is enough to see their true colors, so I didn't plan to remind you, after all, you are an excellent lord, and it is easy to gain insight into the inner thoughts of your people, right?"

Li Yunyang stared at Herris with a sneer on his face and said, "But this doesn't seem to be an excuse for your silence just now, you know, they wasted a lot of my time." If you continue to do this, I don't mind letting Wagle throw you in jail, knowing that I'm not Watson Gill and can tolerate you indefinitely!"

It's not that Li Yunyang is not tolerant, but Herris's behavior has touched his bottom line. If everything has to be done by him, the lord, then what's the use of Li Yunyang spending a lot of money to support him as a strategist?

As Li Yunyang's face gradually turned cold, Herris could no longer maintain his composure just now, and a dense cold sweat instantly broke out on his pale forehead, and he hurriedly begged Li Yunyang for mercy: "Lord Lord, I was wrong, in the future, I will definitely assist you in managing Fort Arte wholeheartedly, if there is any slackness, let me die with ten thousand arrows through my heart!"

In the battle on the wall of Fort Atter that day, Li Yunyang killed three hell demon leopards in a row, and made a flying sword to repel the enemy army several times, and finally captured Watson Gil alive in the chaos of the army, and Herris still vividly remembers the picture.

Originally, Herris's thoughts were no different from those of the nobles and merchants, and he wanted to wait until he accumulated a certain amount of power in Fort Arte before arguing with Li Yunyang. It's a pity that he misestimated Li Yunyang's insight, as well as his patience for this kind of thing.

And Li Yunyang didn't seem to listen to his words at all, just stared at him coldly, and said after a while: "Herris, I don't care what your identity is, and I don't know what you want to do in Fort Art, but what I can tell you is that since you are now my subordinate, you must know how to do things, and don't challenge my bottom line!"

To be honest, Li Yunyang also doubted why Herris wanted to stay in Fort Art, he gave Herris a chance to leave, but he gave up.

It's just that no matter what reason Herris stayed in Fort Arte, Li Yunyang will not deliberately understand, as long as he can do his duty when he is in Fort Arteto.

Li Yunyang is really not afraid that Herris will dare to make trouble in Fort Arte, as long as the military power is firmly controlled in his hands, coupled with his own strength, the conspiracy and trickery are just vain for him.

"From today onwards, you only need to be in charge of the commercial farming of Ateburgh, and everything else will be handled by Wagle and Burren, if I find out that you are doing something beyond your duty, I will let you fulfill what you said today!"

Li Yunyang snorted coldly, and then ignored Herris's words of allegiance under the terror. Finding Wagel, who had counted the rosters of nobles and merchants, asked him to prepare a table of banquets, and put them into the space ring, Li Yunyang strode into the tunnel of the lord's mansion.
