Xiangyi Prefecture, Linyao City.
A large number of people from Longxi Mansion poured in. After a short rest, they were led by the government to move to Qiping Mansion.
There are many people and many things to do.
Many people fish in troubled waters in the crowd and deceive others.
For this type of people, Xu Laosan did not give any preferential treatment at all. Once discovered, he would directly capture them and do hard work.
In preparation for the coming cold, Xu Laosan spent a lot of money to stock up on firewood, but even so, the quantity was still insufficient. After all, when the weather gets really cold, the demand for firewood is really too big.
After all, even if they make money, not everyone will go to the mountains to chop wood.
So these people who were not doing their jobs became Xu Laosan's treasure.
If you don’t study well, then work!
Goofing off
What a beautiful thought!
If you can't complete the minimum daily workload, you won't even be able to eat.
If you want to eat, you have to work, and you have to maintain both quality and quantity.
Because of Xu Laosan's strict laws, the social environment of Xiangyi Prefecture improved.
Xu Laosan's strictness is not only aimed at the people who moved to Qiping Mansion, but also covers all the territory that the Xu family can control now.
No matter what your status is, as long as you are caught committing an offense, you will be severely punished and serve hard labor. Of course, the length of service is different.
Originally, some minor problems in the Tang Dynasty that could be redeemed with gold and silver were abolished by Xu Laosan.
If you commit a crime, you will be punished without money.
When the weather gets colder, social security in Xiangyi Prefecture, Qifeng Prefecture, Donglin Prefecture, Jiangcheng Prefecture, Qiping Prefecture, and Longxi Prefecture is so good that people do not pick up lost items on the road and do not close their homes at night.
If someone wants to cause trouble, he can be overwhelmed by the surrounding people just by saying hello.
Xu Laosan's latest decree rewards the people who act bravely and exempts them from tax and service for one year.
…
In the backyard of the prefect's yamen, a man wearing a Yama mask stood in front of Fubao, and behind Fubao, Dabao, Erbao, and Lichun were all looking at the person in front of them cautiously.
The little white wolf stood next to Fubao, bared his teeth at the man wearing the Yama mask, and let out a series of low growls.
The person in front of him was clearly wearing the mask of the Wheel-turning King.
This person is naturally the wheel-turning king of Yama in the ten palaces of the underworld.
"I have no ill intentions!"
Chakravartin spread his hands and spoke in a gentle voice.
"Are you the wheel-turning king of the underworld?"
Fu Bao naturally recognized the mask of the Wheel Wheel King, but she couldn't figure out why the Wheel Wheel King of the Underworld came to her? The people in the underworld seem to have a grudge against their family.
"Exactly!"
The Wheel King smiled and said, "Are you the Lord of Defu County?"
"I am!"
Fu Bao raised his head and looked at the Wheel-turning King standing opposite him, "Are you here to find me?"
"right!"
A trace of surprise flashed across Wheel King's narrow eyes. He really didn't expect Fu Bao to be unafraid when he saw him. Sure enough, he is indeed the man of destiny!
But, this destined person is too young!
"Is something wrong?"
Fu Bao was also very curious. Why did the Wheel-turning King of the Underworld dare to come to him? After all, as long as she screams, it will be impossible for the Wheel King to escape from Linyao City.
"I was asked by someone to give you something!"
The Wheel King reached into his arms and took out a flat wooden box the size of a palm.
"What's this?"
Fu Bao was not worried at all that she would be harmed by the King of Wheels. If she could be harmed by the King of Wheels, it would mean that she, God's favorite, would have fallen out of favor.
"I don't know either!"
The Wheel King shrugged, "Being entrusted by others is a matter of loyalty. Although I am a killer, I am very trustworthy."
"Then, thank you!"
Fu Bao turned around and handed the box to Li Chun behind him.
"Aren't you afraid that there is something wrong with the box?"
"Is there something wrong with the box?"
Fu Bao blinked and stared at the Wheel-turning King.
The Wheel King shook his head and said: "Of course there is no problem."
"Isn't this enough?"
Fubao is still very confident about his koi's good luck.
Furthermore, she didn't see any hostility in Chakravartin's eyes. Although this man's eyes are a bit like Orochimaru in Naruto, eyes are the windows to the human soul. Although this man's eyes are sharp, it is still easy to tell whether he is hostile or not.
"Would you like to sit down for a while? I'll buy you a cup of tea!"
Fu Bao pointed to the pavilion next to him.
"good!"
The King of Chakravartin is also a man of skill and courage.
As one of the Ten Halls of Hell in the Underworld, he appeared so arrogantly in the backyard of the magistrate's office in Xiangyi Prefecture. How could he dare to be so fearless if he didn't have extraordinary abilities.
"Can you tell me how you became a killer?"
When the guests and hosts were seated, Fu Bao spoke, "I'm really curious, how on earth are Yamas chosen from the ten palaces of your underworld? Who is the leader among you usually?"
"Also, some time ago, the underworld seemed to be surrounded and suppressed by the imperial court. I heard that six Yamas died!"
"seriously?"
"The Tenth Palace Yama is not so weak, right?"
Fu Bao at this moment is definitely a truly curious baby.
Even as a time traveler, Fubao still doesn't understand a lot.
Before traveling through time, Fu Bao was curious about the so-called killer organization. Because the heroines who are good at writing novels are all killers, she wondered, why are there so many killers
Of course, the most curious thing is how the killer organization came about!
"Do you usually have so many questions?"
Chakravartin felt that he had made a mistake by choosing to sit here for a while. If he had known that Fu Bao had so many problems, he would have definitely left after delivering the things.
"My usual problems are not many at all!"
Fu Bao replied seriously, "I can easily understand many things. However, I don't know anything about the killer organization, and I don't understand why the killer is not afraid of death?"
"No, we are also afraid of death!"

When the Wheel King heard Fubao's last words, a trace of sadness inevitably appeared in his eyes, "If you have a choice, I think very few people would choose to become a killer."
"Don't you have a choice?"
"You are one of the Ten Halls of Hell in the Underworld!"
"Is there anyone above you who can control you?"
Fu Bao didn't believe there was a leader in the underworld.
The Wheel King smiled bitterly and said: "Before, I had no choice, so I could only be a killer. Later, when I had a choice, I found that I still had no choice."
"I have been a killer for so long. In addition to making a lot of enemies, I also found that besides killing people, I am not very good at anything else!"
“…”
Hearing this explanation from the Wheel-turning King, Fu Bao was speechless.
"Okay, then, are there really only four Yamas left in the underworld?"
"have no idea!"
King Chakravartin chuckled, "Not long ago, there was internal strife among Yamas in the ten palaces of the underworld. King Chujiang was killed by the city king, and I told the court all the strongholds in the underworld."
"However, unless the Ten Palaces of Yama are tricked by others, it will be difficult for the people in the imperial court to keep us!"
"So, I feel that City King and the others should have faked their death."
Although the Wheel King doesn't know the latest plan of the City King and the others, he can probably guess something.
After all, the people in the underworld are all about urine, and he, the wheel-turning king, knows a thing or two about it.
"Then, will they show up again?"
"meeting!"
King Chakravartin gave a straightforward answer this time, "However, the underworld should become a thing of the past. Unless I, or King Qin Guang, and King Pingping bring the underworld out again, otherwise, the underworld should cease to exist." In the world."
"By the way, are King Qin Guang and King Ping still alive?"
"Alive!"
Fu Bao knows this very well.
After all, King Qin Guang and King Ping were still hanging in the cells of the prefect prison.
"Can I meet them?"
The Wheel King was silent for a moment and then slowly spoke.
"I have to ask my third brother about this!"
Even though Fu Bao was talking to the Wheel King like a grown-up at the moment, when it came to serious matters, she would not make the decision without permission.
After such a long time, Fu Bao has discovered that people at this time are very fickle in terms of their minds.
Of her three brothers, who is the most mean-spirited, it must be her eldest brother. But if we say who is the most scheming, his third brother is definitely the scheming man.
"In that case, County Lord Lao should send someone to ask!"
After hearing Fu Bao's words, King Zhuan Lun actually chose to meet King Qin Guang and King Ping.
Fu Bao naturally would not refuse and asked Li Chun to call her third brother.
…
Not long after, after receiving the news, Xu Laosan rushed over in a hurry. Of course, he didn't come alone, but brought a large group of guards.
Even Xu Laosan himself brought two pieces of the Xu family's family heirloom.
"I have no ill intentions!"
Seeing Xu Laosan who was surrounded by men and horses, the Wheel-Winning King stretched out his hands to express his attitude.
"Third brother, this uncle is just here to deliver something to me. By the way, I want to see my former partner. He is not here to cause trouble."
Fu Bao spoke up, relaxing the atmosphere.
Xu Laosan was stunned for a moment after hearing Fu Bao's words, then raised his hand and waved gently.
The guards who followed Xu Laosan immediately stepped back, but still looked at the Wheel-Winning King sitting opposite Fubao with caution.
"I wonder what your Highness, the Wheel-turning King, wants?"
Xu Laosan carried two spears on his back, went straight into the pavilion, and sat down on the stone pillar next to Fu Bao.
"Underworld will never exist in the future."
"I heard that King Qin Guang and King Ping Ping were both captured alive. I want to see them and talk to them. That's all!"
"This is easy!"
Xu Laosan thought for a moment and agreed to the Wheel-Winning King's request.
"Uncle, since the underworld is gone, what are you going to do in the future?"
"How about you stay here? My master is not here now, and I still want to learn martial arts!"
Before the Wheel King left with his third brother, Fu Bao quickly said hello.
"Thank you so much for your love, Lord County. I have committed many sins in my life and have enemies all over the world, so I won't cause any trouble to Lord County!"
Although King Chakravartin was surprised by Fubao's words, he still chose to refuse.
It wasn't until the Wheel-Winning King left with Xu Laosan that Fu Bao let out a long sigh.
"Hey, why is it so difficult to find a great master?"
Lu Mudan was indeed powerful, but she didn't teach Fubao too many moves. She was more interested in helping Fubao polish her body and urging her to practice the Fetal Breathing Technique.
Fu Bao could tell that both Uncle Lu and Lu Mudan were looking forward to her being able to gather a breath of innate energy as soon as possible.
Although she didn't know why, Fubao had a feeling that this breath of innate energy was very precious.
It's a pity that even though she is God's favorite, she still hasn't been able to condense a breath of innate energy after practicing till now. As for why all this happened, Fubao couldn't figure it out.
As time passed, Fubao even felt that Uncle Lu's so-called innate state might be the conjecture of his predecessors.
Unfortunately, she has no evidence.
…
In less than half an hour, Xu Laosan hurried over.
"Third brother, the Wheel King is gone?"
When he saw his third brother coming, Fu Bao waved his hand with a smile.
"gone!"
"Prince Guang of Qin and Prince Ping are also gone!"
"Did you let it go?"
Fu Bao looked at her third brother in astonishment. This was not like her third brother's behavior.
"Five million taels of silver!"
Xu Laosan chuckled, "In order for me to let these two people go, the King of Wheels gave me five million taels of silver. With this silver, I can buy a lot of food and firewood, and repair more buildings." room."
"Compared to the two lives, I think this deal is a good deal."
“…”
What can I say if Fubao doesn’t make it
"Third brother, are you still short of money now?"
"lack!"
"Although the gold mines in our area have begun to be mined, the price of rice and food in the south of the Yangtze River is getting higher and higher. And in Qiping Mansion, the people who have migrated there need to settle down properly, and the money and food they need is really not enough. few."
It's not that Xu Laosan is greedy for money, but that he really needs money.
Today, the weather has turned cooler.
If Fu Bao's dream really indicates reality, then the day will soon get cold.
In fact, Xu Laosan knew very well that it would get cold very quickly today. Because the north of Longxi Mansion, Qifeng Mansion, and Donglin Mansion have all become colder, and the northernmost Longxi Mansion has already snowed several times in a row.
If they hadn't started preparing things to keep out the cold early, the army at Dragon City might have been in trouble.
And with the weather getting colder so quickly, the northern barbarians living further north definitely started wintering early.
Previously, the Northern Barbarians looted almost the entire Longxi Mansion, but it was still unclear whether the supplies they looted were enough for them to survive this cold winter.
Once the northern barbarians find that they are short of supplies, they will inevitably invade south.
The southern invasion was not only to plunder resources, but also to reduce the population.
Once a war breaks out, the consumption of various materials will inevitably increase significantly.
Xu Laosan was in charge of logistics, so he had to take precautions.
"Third brother, actually, I think..."
"Don't think so, just take a look at what the Wheel King has given you!"
Xu Laosan interrupted Fu Bao's words, "Aren't you curious about who sent this thing, and moreover, it was sent by the Wheel-turning King of Yama from the Tenth Hall of the Underworld!"
"yes!"
Only then did Fu Bao open the wooden box.
In the box, a piece of sheepskin was rolled into a roll. (End of chapter)
