Hardy wants to teach the whole city of Hucaro a very important lesson.

During the sixteen years of the absence of the lord, the people of Hucaro City lived quite freely.

the freedom to evade taxes, the freedom to take what the master has for himself, and ...... Freedom to be the master of your own house.

But now that the new city lord has returned, some people don't want to let go of the power and wealth in their hands, and want to continue with the happy life they had before

They want to be tempted, they want to slowly cause trouble for Hardy, so that he will lose sight of one or the other.

A young man, no matter how powerful he is on the battlefield, how powerful can he be in terms of politics and management of the territory!

That's a very reasonable idea.

Due to this world, the circulation of knowledge is quite poor, and generally speaking, those who can write cannot be martial.

There are also people who are quite powerful in both aspects, but they are all old fritters, and they generally live for more than thirty years.

Hardy, a sixteen-year-old hairy boy, since he is calling for wind and rain on the battlefield, he should not have much experience in management.

You can pit him for a wave.

Then he pitted himself on the gallows.

The leaders of several industries have been slowly drifting with the breeze at this time, and there is a puddle of yellow water stains under everyone's suspended feet.

And every time the guillotine is pulled up, a human head rolls down from the high platform.

Blood shot out of the prisoner's neck, like a red fountain.

At first, the citizens who came to see the play were relatively calm, and even laughed and shouted excitedly when they saw the big people hanging on the hanging.

But as one by one the street slickers were beheaded, their smiles slowly faded.

The area of the puddle of blood on the ground grew larger and larger, and the smell of blood in the air became stronger and stronger.

Gradually, they stopped screaming when they were beheaded.

Only those who were beheaded, the struggle and wails before death, resounded in the central square.

Gradually, there were fewer people in the central square.

A lot of people couldn't stand the stimulus and left.

After the last person was beheaded, Hardy smiled and left after seeing that there were only a few scattered groups of people in the square.

The executioners began to tidy up the scene, washing the blood from the ground with water.

Gather the heads and transport the bodies of the prisoners outside for burial.

But those 'leaders' are still hanging on the gallows, fluttering in the wind.

Hardy planned to hang them for three days before disposing of their bodies.

This deterrent effect should be similar to that of hanging street lights.

For a long time to come, the meat industry in Hucaro City will not sell well, and the tavern business will be better.

Although the number of people who came to watch the 'public trial' was only about 10,000, according to word of mouth, the entire city of Hucaro knew what Hadi had done.

His name was established.

After a long time, he gave an order, and very few people in Hucaro City dared to disobey it, saving a lot of effort.

The reason why Hardy is so anxious to take Hucaro City into his hands and settle down is simple: the open beta is about to begin.

Carefully calculated, it is only more than three months.

Three months is actually a long time for an individual, but when it comes to the 'development' of a city, it seems very short.

Sometimes, any urban project can take years.

Especially in such a situation where the productive forces are not yet very developed.

Hardy had to hold Hucaro City firmly in his hands before the 'Open Beta'.

More than a month has passed.

After a public trial, the tax revenue of Hucaro City reached as much as forty-six coins, and in addition to the expenses of the administrative staff, the army, and the basic operating expenses of the lord's palace, there were actually fifteen gold coins left.

It's quite a lot.

This is pure profit, and in Hardy's opinion, Hucaro City's potential has not even been tapped.

Hardy was in his study, calculating the money needed for the city's next bailout.

Because the weather has started to turn colder, and soon a cold wave is coming.

Most of the people in Hucaro survived, but the slums were not so good.

They don't even have much to eat.

At the end of the winter, it is estimated that a third of the people will die.

In Hardy's opinion, this is not allowed.

All the people in Hucaro City, in his opinion, are laborers, and there is no way to receive taxes from them now, and that is because he has not helped them find a way to generate profits.

These workers can't just die.

"Gotta find a way to get them moving." Hardy bit the tip of his pen and pondered.

At this time, Lillian knocked on the door and came in, and said, "Master, and I want to see you." ”

"Ask him to come in."

Soon, he walked in from outside, his face was full of joy: "Your Excellency Hadi, the city drainage canal has been completed according to your requirements, please go and accept it." ”

"No, yesterday's heavy rain is the best acceptance." Hardy smiled.

Yesterday there was a heavy rain, but this time the whole city of Hucarlo, no part of the city was flooded, and all the rainwater was drained into the sewers and flowed into the big river outside the city.

Taking out the appointment document that he had prepared earlier, Hadi pointed to a point in the south of the ground and said, "This is Yir Village, the specialty is ore, the village has a population of more than two hundred, and it is more than enough to support a knight family." ”

"This place is my territory?" And the eyes of the sunset shined.

Hardy nodded and said, "Your long-term task after taking office is to repair and maintain the road from Eir Village to Boris City, to ensure that this main road is unimpeded, and that there can be no small forces such as robbers and robbers, and to ensure the safety of the caravans in the two places, understand?" ”

And Xixi nodded: "Understood." ”

"It's a long-term task, but it's not that hard." Hardy smiled: "I know that you are very capable, and you will definitely not be willing to be just a little knight in the future." But my status here is viscount, and this is the biggest noble status I can canonize. If one day, you want to go somewhere else, tell me, and I'll see you off. ”

"Thank you, Lord Hardy." He looked at the young man in front of him gratefully, and then he asked, "If there is a day when His Excellency Hadi is elevated?" Can I mention another identity to the top as well? ”

"It's not that easy."

"It's hard to say."

And Xi Xi smiled, and left.

In his opinion, Hardy had been on CG animation a few months ago.

From the perspective of common sense, only very powerful plot characters can have the qualification to be 'photogenic'.

And now, Hardy has become a lord, which indeed confirms the idea of Xi Xixi.

In his opinion, instead of currying favor with other nobles who don't know the depth and look down on people, it is better to hug the black knight's thigh.

At least...... This Lord Hardy does not have the disgusting aristocratic style.

Moreover, there is a very bottom line in doing things.

As for the forty or so people who were killed not long ago, it is very clear that those people deserve to die.

With the decision made, his steps became more and more determined, and then he saw a very beautiful woman of great figure pass him and enter the lord's house of Hadi.

Well...... This seems to be Mrs. Sissi.

Wait, she's coming to Hardy?

This lonely man and widow, will he make a fuss?

And Xixi really likes Mrs. Sissi, after all, the latter's temperament, every part of his body, is on top of his XP.

"Damn, this Hadi child's peach blossom luck is too good, or we will do the opposite."

and said indignantly to the live broadcast room.

Then reap a burst of merry laughter.
