Chapter 1090: The First Obstacle After Taking Office
Hand-picking the number of people in the City of Ten Thousand Souls, as well as understanding the various arrangements and formations in the city, as well as strangling the many demon cultivators outside the city who make a living by killing people and grabbing treasures, these are actually okay, with the right of Beihe, it is easy to command the people under him to do it.
But when he tried to replace the guards in the city, as well as the mountains that were responsible for the lease of the major cave mansions, and the shopkeepers of the shops in the city, he was greatly hindered.
For example, the guards in the city need a letter from the lord of the city. And when Beihe showed his handwritten letter, the other party claimed that he still needed the personal order of the Lord Wanhu on their heads, and then they would hand over all their strength.
In addition, the person in charge of leasing the cave house, as well as the shopkeeper in the shop, are also like this.
"Humph!"
Bei He, who was on the throne of the City Lord's Mansion, looked annoyed, and slammed the document in his hand to the ground.
Seeing this, Hong Yinghan beside him, and an old man in a snake-patterned robe standing below, the two couldn't help but glance at each other.
They could naturally see that Beihe was angry.
But the next moment, Beihe restrained the anger on his face. Over the years, although he has "read a lot of books", but in fact it is just talk on paper, and when he really became the lord of the city and began to actually operate, he found that practice was often the most difficult.
He only listened to him in the middle of the groan: "These things in the city should be responsible for the good and poor, right?"
What Beihe refers to is naturally the collection of spirit stones that enter the city gate, and the rent of the shops in the cave has benefited.
When he first came to the city, he had heard about it.
In addition to the good and poor, Shang Zhulong, one of the four late Fayuan monks, was responsible for the development of the territory outside the city. Beihe has checked, this piece of oil and water is also a lot, using the people and horses in the city to expand the territory, but all kinds of demonic beasts killed along the way, as well as all kinds of elixirs picked, and even all kinds of spirit ores mined, all these years Wanling City has not seen a single hair, most of them have fallen into Shang Zhulong's pocket.
There is also that Qiu Gang Hunting, who is responsible for the external affairs of Wanling City on weekdays, such as investigating news and completing various tasks.
This may seem like nothing to be fished for, but it is not. Qiu Gang Hunting can fully use the human resources in the city? Doing a lot of shady things outside. Things like burning, killing, looting? With the nature of demon cultivation, he is the best.
In the Ten Thousand Souls Sea, there are many advanced cultivators? These scattered cultivators are actually the same as those demonic cultivators in the Ten Thousand Souls Mountain Range who make a living by killing people and grabbing treasures? It's all about killing people and making money.
But compared to those little minions in the Wanling Mountain Range, these people in the Wanling Sea Area? Cultivation and strength are much stronger.
Even they seem to be scattered, but in fact they not only have their own team. Who is it for? Not alone? Rather, it's a whole caravan, or a convoy of a clan.
As long as the robbery is successful, then you will be able to make a fortune.
In fact, many of these people are Qiu Ganglie's minions.
How long did these Fayuan monks spend in the City of All Souls? Compared to Beihe's lifelong cultivation time, it is longer? Therefore, their power has infiltrated the City of All Souls. It is obviously impossible for a small dust-free monk in Beihe to want to divide their interests as soon as he sits down.
For example, a good poor person in front of him makes him a little big? I don't know where to start.
What's more, did this good poor stand in line back then or was it headed by Hong Xuanlong? At the moment, he still doesn't give him face, Hong Xuanlong's son-in-law.
"Not bad!"
After hearing Beihe's words, he only heard the old man below him nod? "The spirit stones entering the city in the city, as well as the collection of rent for shops and caves? They are all good and poor adults who are responsible. ”
This old man's name is Shayin? Is it a monk of the Nine Snakes? It can be regarded as Hong Xuanlong's cronies arranged for Beihe.
Sha Yin had just advanced to the early stage of the Fa Yuan, and his strength could only be regarded as reluctant.
And on the day of Beihe's wedding, after seeing Beihe's blow to the wind and cold into the earth, this person was a little amazed by Beihe's strength, and he knew that Beihe's future was limitless.
In addition, he was personally arranged by Hong Xuanlong to Beihe, so although he had the cultivation of the early stage of Fa Yuan, he was still convinced of Beihe, the city lord in the middle of the dustless period.
"Husband, why don't we use the method of boiling a frog in warm water and eat him step by step! With my father's secret support, I don't believe that Na Liang and Poor will not hand over any power. ”
At this moment, Hong Yinghan, who was only on Beihe's side, proposed.
Hearing this, Sha Yin immediately agreed: "The city lord's wife is reasonable. ”
After finishing speaking, he continued: "The income of the spirit stones on the surface of the entire Ten Thousand Souls City is divided into four parts. One of them is the collection of spirit stones into the city. The second is the benefit of the shops in the city that belong to my Wanling City, as well as the rent of foreign shops. The third is the rent of the Dongfu lease. Fourth, there is the commission income from the auction. ”
Among them, the income from the auction accounts for the smallest part, followed by the collection of spirit stones entering the city, and the benefit of the rent of the cave house. The biggest benefit is the turnover of shops in the city, as well as the rent of foreign shops. So I can start with the smallest auction and let the good poor hand over the control of the auction first. ”
After hearing the old man's words, Beihe did not answer for a while.
However, Hong Yinghan, who was beside him, nodded slightly, obviously agreeing with Sha Yin's proposal. With this method, they can slowly control the power, and it is not easy to do somersaults.
It's just that this is contrary to what Bei He wants to seize power by thunder, and he doesn't want to waste time like this.
After thinking about it, I only heard him say: "Liang Poor, Qiu Gang Hunting, Shang Zhulong and others have been entrenched in Wanling City for so many years, they should also have their own connections and people, right?"
"This is nature!" Hong Yinghan nodded.
"How many?"
"If you really want to count it, half of the more than twenty Fayuan stage monks in the city should have a close relationship with them. In the future, there will be even more monks in the dust-free period and the de-mortal period. ”
"Hey, hey, hey...... What a bit of a skill!" Beihe laughed.
Hong Xuanlong has broken through to the Heavenly Venerable Realm, and there are still people who are willing to get so close to these late-stage Fa Yuan cultivators.
In other words, if you get too stiff with these people, or if you directly offend and die, half of the Fa Yuan monks in the city will leave.
Of course, this is only theoretical. In fact, the result will only be better than this, not worse than this. After all, Liangqiang and others can only win people's hearts by relying on years of operation, and Hong Xuanlong is a Tianzun. Another point is that there is no eternal alliance in the world, and everyone can be together purely for the sake of profit.
"Sha Lao, now go and check how many people are needed if you want to be responsible for collecting all kinds of rents in the city, as well as the fees for entering the city, as well as the people and horses in the auction. ”
At this time, Beihe looked at Sha**.
"This ......"
The old man of the Nine Snake Clan was shocked, and secretly said that Beihe was crazy.
Even Hong Yinghan opened his mouth, a little unconvinced.
"If some poisons are too deep, they can only be cut and scraped bones. Beihe said something that moved the two.
"In Qiyu City, the old man has already checked this point, if you want to hand over all the people in charge of the affairs in the hands of the poor and poor, you need at least two thousand people. Although it is not necessary to have the support of a Fayuan period monk, there are at least a hundred people who need to be a dustless stage monk. ”
"Madam, mother-in-law should be able to easily find all these people, right?" Hearing this, Beihe looked at Hong Yinghan.
"You...... Do you really want to do this?" Hong Yinghan looked at Beihe Dao.
She really couldn't think of any way Beihe could make the good poor take the initiative to hand over power.
"You won't have to, but be prepared!" Beihe smiled incomprehensibly.
"Yes, yes......" Hong Yinghan nodded.
Just as she was about to say something, she was interrupted by Beihe, "Very good, then let's bother Mrs. now, find my mother-in-law to gather these people, just gather in one place first." ”
"Husband...... Isn't this going too hard?" Hong Yinghan reminded.
"Don't worry, you have your own decision. "Beihe is extremely confident.
With the support of Hong Xuanlong, the Heavenly Venerable, and he has to be so timid in doing things, then he is really too aggrieved.
"Alright then!"
In the end, Hong Yinghan nodded, and then she got up and left the place.
Watching Hong Yinghan's back disappear, Bei He retracted his gaze with satisfaction.
"City Lord, then shall I wait now?"
"Just wait here for Madame's return. "North River Road.
Although Sha Yin still had a lot of questions in his heart, he still didn't ask them in the end.
Although in his opinion, Beihe's cultivation is not high at the moment, and it also gives him a feeling of not being very old, of course, he is referring to psychological feelings, not appearances. But Beihe gave him a premonition of decisiveness and ruthlessness.
Although I don't know what Beihe is going to do, it is conceivable that there must be a big move. Like Hong Yinghan, he didn't think that Beihe had any means to force the good and poor to hand over power.
Hong Yinghan only left for a day, and then came back again, and after stepping into the main hall, he heard this woman facing the Beihe River: "Husband, the people and horses are ready, they are in Huilin Pavilion, and they can be dispatched at any time!"
"Let's go!"
Hearing this, Beihe Huo Ran got up.
Hong Yinghan didn't have time to sit down, seeing Beihe walking towards the gate, this woman and Sha Yin glanced at each other, and finally the two followed him. After walking out of the main hall, I saw Beihe step into a luxury chariot parked in mid-air.
The chariot was made of a black-gold metal, and the surface was engraved with many intricate spiritual patterns. In the case of abundant Demon Yuan Stones, not only can it burst out with a ferocious attack comparable to that of a Fa Yuan stage monk, but its defensive power is extremely amazing, even a Fa Yuan late stage monk, don't even think about breaking it in three moves and two styles in a short time.
This was still the day when Beihe was at the wedding banquet, I don't know who gave it, he saw that this treasure was good, so he used it directly. After all, he is the lord of a city, and he should have a bit of style.
"Go to the palace of the good and poor. ”
As Hong Yinghan also stepped into it, he listened to the voice of Beihe coming from it.
