Barony Pilca, a group of fully armed soldiers surrounded the entire mansion.

"What about the baron, why are you the only one of the Interior Ministers?" came a shout from the hall.

I saw a stout man in silver armor sitting in the main hall, with a tiger's back and a stubble on his face, and his eyes were burning out at the moment.

Stanny and several captains of the guard stood cautiously at the bottom of the hall, and on either side stood more than a dozen menacing foreign soldiers.

"Back to my lord, we adults have gone out to do some work, and he should be back in the next few days, right?" Stanny was not surprised when he spoke, but he didn't have a clue about his words in his heart, "This little ancestor, if you don't come back, this matter will be really big!"

Several captains were already frightened, and if it weren't for Stanny pretending to be calm on the side, it is estimated that they would have knelt down and cried to their grandmother.

"What kind of bullshit business!" As soon as he heard this, the man in the hall immediately became even more angry, and smashed the tea table beside him with a fist! "There is such a big thing in the territory, as a parent official, he dares to leave his post without permission, I think he is tired of life!"

Stanny's eyes flashed, but he couldn't hide the deep helplessness, and the captains next to him were even more frightened by the man's punch and shrunk their necks, and their faces turned pale for a while!

"My lord, you have searched and searched, after so many days, have you found the slightest sign of suspicion? Even if we are here, we will not be able to do anything. Stanny's eyes closed slightly, he only hoped that this disaster would end there, it was messy enough......

A few days after Li Yunyang left, Pirka received a bumper harvest of grain, and the whole territory was filled with joy!

But before he had time to rejoice for two days, the viscount sent someone to collect the grain tax, and the magnitude of the tax was inexplicably increased by three times!

He also said that the tax should be calculated according to the proportion of the harvest, so that even if the harvest was abundant, in the end, the peasants would still only have this little bit of grain to eat and starve!

Which of the soldiers in the territory was not a man selected from the territory? This blatant robbery by the officials naturally aroused the public indignation of the soldiers, and without the control of the superiors, they immediately started to fight with the contingent that came to collect grain!

Before this man could do anything, a large number of troops immediately came up and arrested all these troublesome soldiers! The soldiers were wronged, but they went to the baron's palace to complain, only to find that the baron did not receive them at all......

The people's hearts were dissipated at once, as an internal affairs officer, Stanny was also in a hurry, and he didn't know where Li Yunyang went, and even if he came forward, he could only appease these soldiers!

Soon, the discouraged soldiers disarmed and returned to the fields, caught and walked...... Originally, counting the three knights, the entire barony already had a team of 1,300 people, but now there are only 300 people left!

That's not all, some farmers also began to be disappointed in the territory, and the most excited farmers took their belongings on the same day, took their wives and children and left the Barony of Pirka, followed by more and more people chose to leave, and by now, there are at least more than 100 households that have left!

The old men of the two local ancestral halls also came to the door every day to pester Stanny, and they had to come forward to give them an explanation, but Stanny just broke his mouth, and who believed that the Baron really didn't come back?

No, one wave has not settled, and another wave has risen without wind......

"Presumptuous!" After hearing Stanny's words, the face of the man in the hall changed greatly, and he stood up suddenly, "Do you dare to doubt the ability of this official?

"I ......," Stanny couldn't argue.

"Someone, tie up this internal affairs officer for me!" The man waved his big hand, and four soldiers immediately stood up on both sides, "As an internal affairs officer, you should have assisted the consul, but now that the baron's whereabouts are unknown, you can't escape this crime of dereliction of duty!

The group came in a hurry, and dispersed quickly, Stanny was tied behind the back and put on a carriage for pulling goods, seeing the team leaving, the old butler Robin dared to run out of the mansion tremblingly, looking at the troops gradually moving away, old tears were in ......

"Young Master Allen, you should come back quickly......"

The Svenburg Territory is one of the viscounties that are relatively close to the Imperial City of the Star Empire, and Li Yunyang has never been to any earls and marquises, but he has been deeply touched by this journey.

It is no wonder that in the Empire, such a place with no worries about food and clothing would be so disliked, it turned out that the people of the Empire lacked food and clothing at all, because in such a rich plain with good weather and rain, fertile land and abundant products, how could there be such a thing as the Pirka Collar Mountain?

No matter how poor they are, there is no problem at all with having enough to eat and wear warm clothes! And what they are pursuing is only honor, face, and spiritual satisfaction! Just like Shanghai and ordinary first-tier cities, do the people in those ordinary first-tier cities lack money? Can't they have enough food and clothing? No! Some places are even quite rich, but they just look down on you in their hearts!

The people in the city look down on the towns, and the towns look down on the towns, and the townspeople look down on the mountains!

Are the people in the mountains really poor? Not necessarily......

But Li Yunyang's place, which integrates mountainous areas and suburbs, really can't eat enough and can't wear warm clothes! At least he can't afford to eat a meal of rice, he can't afford to wear brand-new clothes without patches, let alone a meal of meat dishes, and even dried meat has become a treasure in his family.

The roads of the Empire are so flat that it's hard to find an uphill climb, and they're wide, each at least 8-10 meters wide!

It only took three hours to gallop all the way from the junction of the jurisdiction of the Viscount of Svenburg to the walls of Svenburg!

Li Yunyang didn't know how big the county was, but judging from the distance traveled, it was already much bigger than the Viscount of Blory, at least more than twice as much!

It's the same viscounty, why is there such a big difference?

Not to mention this city wall, Brory only erected a side at the gate of the city more than ten meters high, but only two thousand meters long decorative city wall, but what about Svenburg?

Looking at both sides from the city gate, the city wall that extends out is blurry and you can't see the edge at all, if Li Yunyang guessed correctly, this city wall should have enclosed the entire town!

After all, this is a plain, and it is better not to build a wall with decorations! Unlike Blory, which is still sandwiched by mountains on both sides, but in this way, it does not have the strength to fill such a large vacant place for it!

"No wonder others look down on the people of the kingdom......"

With the crowd entering the city, Li Yunyang, who was riding on a horse, pouted his tongue and secretly thought, this kind of gap between the rich and the poor can't be described in words at all!
