This Overlord Doesn’t Care About Anything

Chapter 724: 2. The momentum is soaring, and the people are healthy

Views:

Liede submitted a naming scheme for the new territory, but it was temporarily put on hold. During this period of time, the Yunyang Territory still maintained its original name, but officials, large and small, from top to bottom have undergone a round of blood changes.

The reform of Yuxi City is bottom-up, and a large number of talent reserves have been prepared in advance, so there will be no moths who search for the people's fat and people's ointment all the year round. A lot of blood was shed during this process, and Lide and other upper-level leadership groups were also described as murderous monsters without blinking an eye. But it has to be said that under such circumstances, the rolling of people's heads is the prerequisite for political clarity. Only when the rotten flesh is gouged out can Yunyang be completely reformed.

"Today alone, more than 600 officials were beheaded at the Xishi City's search office...the whips were almost enough, and it was time to distribute dates. Unexpectedly, there are still many good people among the officials in Yunyang, but it's a pity that these people In the chaotic situation, most of them are depressed and unsuccessful, and a few people were imprisoned because of their outspoken advice. I drew up a list, and when you come back, you will go to the prison and release them yourself, which can be regarded as buying some people's hearts."

He Yue stuffed two pieces of paper full of names into Lide's hands, and Lide took a rough look at them. Some of the names were familiar to him, and he had seen them when he was in Lingyun City.

He Yue continued:

"In addition, what are Li Yi and the others going to do with it? The lord of Yunyang has a big business. There are dozens of wives alone, and countless children. Those are your relatives and friends in name. If you don't handle it well, you will be drowned in saliva. of."

Lid waved his hand and replied:

"It's still the same sentence, only punish the culprit and ignore the rest. People have to pay the price for what they do. Those who beat us before and did too many bad things will be killed after the first trial. No problem. Yes, there is no need to retaliate too much, just let a life out if you have to. Many sons and daughters of Lord Yunyang are half-grown children. The housekeeper and maid have never done any heinous things, so let them be released."

He Yue nodded.

He had already seen Lord Yunyang's family list in advance, and he personally tried everyone in the Lord's mansion. Among the leadership team of Yuxi City, he is the only one who is qualified to deal with this problem, so He Yue is very concerned about this matter. When Li De said this, He Yue already knew who would die and who would live.

In the prison, Li Yi, the former prince of Yunyang, was sitting in a wheelchair, staring blankly at the ceiling.

He seemed much quieter than usual. I don't know whether it was the death of Lord Yunyang that frightened him, or he became disheartened after knowing that there was no way to turn things around, but Li Yi has not caused any trouble recently, and stayed in the prison honestly.

It wasn't until the members of the Anbu organization of Yuxi City found him and told him that he was going to Yuxi City to stand trial next, that there was a slight ripple in Li Yi's gray eyes. He laughed like a raven in the night, and said hoarsely:

"You are finished... We have burned the last food and grass in Lingyun City. The people of Yunyang have no food to last until next year... Soon there will be a new uprising... You took Yunyang by this despicable method, and finally They will surely die in their hands..."

He rushed forward, fell from the wheelchair to the ground, grabbed the Anbu member's legs with both hands, and growled:

"All valuables are gone. Let me see what you can do to save this Yunyang! If you can't save it, all the crimes will be attributed to you. Li De will be Yunyang's biggest sinner! Before long, you will have to Ruin... Hahahahaha! Do you think you have won? So what if I throw this kind of rags to you!"

The members of the Anbu organization looked at him with pity, put him back on the wheelchair, and took him away mercilessly. After a few days of long journey, Li Yi came to Yuxi City again, this city that he had led troops to attack many times but never found anything.

Before entering the city, Li Yi slowly widened his eyes.

Because the control area of Yuxi City has been increasing, he has not seen the main city of Yuxi City for a long time. The last decisive battle was in Xiaxin City, and the last time was outside Rivet City, so that his impression of Yuxi City still remained a long time ago. Seeing this city again now, Li Yi's first reaction is that the walls of this city are already higher than Lingyun City.

Just talking about the four words "Momentum Lingyun", this seems to be the genuine version.

Being escorted through the city gate, Li Yi entered Yuxi City. And what appeared in front of his eyes was a scene he had never seen before. Back then in Lingyun City, the tallest building was Lord Yunyang's Mansion, followed by Cuiyi Building, which was also the number one brothel in Lingyun City, and was the property of Lord Yunyang's second concubine. But when he entered Yuxi City, Li Yi discovered that even the buildings where ordinary people live here are more than five stories high, row after row of high-rise buildings lined up row after row, completely crushing Lingyun City with its internal buildings of different heights in terms of momentum. .

There are many vendors yelling on both sides of the road. Mobile stalls selling lunch and snacks are parked by the roadside, and more exquisite shops have opened stores. Many masters were also recruited to act as security guards at the door.

Merchants from all over gathered in this land, exchanging different news:

"Hey, fortunately my batch of grain and grass was sold early. Guess what happened? There was news this morning that the grain production of the demons has increased again, and this year's grain prices will probably fall."

"You don't understand now. That batch of grain is to be used as relief grain. Yunyang is tentatively determined. No matter how much the government suppresses the price of grain, this grain is still in short supply. I think it will have to go up."

"Stop arguing, you two. At most, another 20 to 30% will be raised, and it won't be any higher... He Yue has money and food in his hands, and he is completely ready to fight us in person. The real villager in Yunyang The big food households have been stolen, and you only have so much food, and you can’t beat it together. If it goes up, it’s because they reward us with food; if it doesn’t go up, we should make money anyway. "

"Indeed. I heard that the devil even dared to kill his own father... Let's be careful."

"Extremely, extremely. I heard that there were some novelties in Yuxi City a few days ago. The food is untouchable. It is also good to resell some rare items..."

Li Yi stared blankly at the businessmen who were chatting happily, and then slowly turned his head, looking at the tall and orderly buildings around him, their flat faces, and all kinds of passers-by. When he was captured last time, Yuxi City had given him some shock, but it was far less clear than this time. At that time, he felt that it was nothing more than that, because the city was far from reaching the level of Lingyun City from the outside, but it was different now.

Whether it is Li Yi or the lord of Yunyang, they all feel that destroying Lingyun City is destroying Yunyang's century-old foundation, and Li De will get nothing. But now even a dude like him can see that Li De no longer needs the things in Lingyun City.

The current Yuxi City is far more prosperous than the former Lingyun City.
