Happy people from Blue Star

Chapter 115
Hardy is going to teach the entire Hukaro City a very important lesson.

During the 16-year absence of the lord, the people of Hukaro City lived quite freely.

The freedom to evade taxes, the freedom to take what belongs to the master, and the freedom to be the master of the house.

But now that the new city lord is back, some people don't want to let go of the power and wealth in their hands, and want to continue their happy life
They want to test, want to slowly create trouble for Hardy, let him focus on one thing and lose another.

For a young man, no matter how good he is on the battlefield, how good can he be in terms of politics and managing the territory!

This is a very reasonable idea.

Because of this world, the circulation of knowledge is quite poor. Generally speaking, those who can write can't use martial arts.

There are also people who are good at both aspects, but they are all old fritters, and they generally live to be over 30 years old.

Hardy is a 16-year-old kid. Since he has been calling the shots on the battlefield, he probably doesn't have much experience in management.

You can trick him.

Then he hangs himself on the gallows.

The leaders of several industries are now slowly drifting with the breeze, and there is a puddle of yellow water stains under each of their suspended feet.

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

Blood shot from the prisoner's neck like a red fountain.

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

But as street sneakers were beheaded one by one, their smiles gradually faded.

The pool of blood on the ground is getting bigger and bigger, and the smell of blood in the air is getting stronger and stronger.

Gradually, they stopped cheering when they beheaded.

Only those who were beheaded, the struggle and wailing before death, resounded through the central square.

Gradually, the number of people in the central square began to decrease.

Many people couldn't stand the stimulation and left.

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

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

Collect the heads and transport the prisoner's body outside for burial.

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

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

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

And for a long time to come, the meat industry in Hukaro City will not sell well, and the business of the tavern will be better instead.

Although the number of people who came to watch the 'public trial' was only around [-], according to word of mouth, the entire city of Hukaro knew what Hadi had done.

Since then, his reputation has been established.

After a long period of time, very few people in Hukaro City dared to defy the order he issued, which saved a lot of effort.

The reason why Hardy is so eager to take Hukaro City into his hands and settle down is very simple: the public beta is about to start.

After careful calculation, it was just over three months.

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

Sometimes, any urban project takes several years.

Especially when this kind of productivity is not yet well developed.

Hardy must grab Hukaro City firmly in his hands before the 'public test'.

More than a month has passed.

After a public trial, the tax revenue of Hucaro City reached as many as 46 gold coins. Excluding administrative staff expenses, army expenses, and the basic operating expenses of the lord's mansion, there were actually [-] gold coins left.

Already quite a lot.

This is pure profit, and in Hardy's view, even half of Hukaro City's potential has not been tapped.

Hardy was in the study, calculating the money needed for the city's rescue.

Because the weather has started to turn cold, the cold wave will come soon.

Most of the people in Hukaro City can survive, but it is hard to say in the slums.

They don't even have much to eat.

After one winter, it is estimated that one-third of the people will die.

In Hardy's view, this is not allowed.

Everyone in Hukaro City, in his opinion, is a labor force, and there is no way to collect taxes from them now, because he has not helped them find a way to generate profits.

These labor forces cannot die casually.

"We have to find a way to make them move." Hardy bit his pen, thinking hard.

At this time, Lilian knocked on the door and came in, saying, "Master, please see me every evening."

"Please come in."

Soon, Bing Xixi walked in from the outside, his face was full of joy: "Your Excellency Hardy, the urban drainage canal has been completed according to your requirements, please go and inspect it."

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

It rained heavily yesterday, but this time the entire city of Hukaro was not flooded. All the rainwater was drained into the sewers and flowed into the river outside the city.

Taking out the appointment document that he had prepared earlier, Hardy pointed to a point in the south of the ground, and said, "This is the village of Il, and its specialty is ore. The village has a population of more than 200, which is more than enough to support a knight family."

"This place is my territory?" Bing Xixi's eyes lit up.

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

Bing Xixi nodded: "Understood."

"Although it is a long-term task, it is actually not difficult." Hardy said with a smile: "I know that you are very capable, and I will definitely not be willing to be just a little knight in the future. But my status here is the Viscount. Can be canonized, the greatest noble status. If one day, you want to go to other places, just tell me, and I will see you off."

"Thank you, Your Excellency Hardy." Bing Xixi looked at the young man in front of him gratefully, and then asked: "If one day, is Your Excellency Hardy promoted? Can you let me also mention another identity to the top?"

"It's not that easy."

"It's hard to say."

Bing Xixi smiled and left.

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

From a common sense point of view, only very powerful plot characters can be qualified for this 'photogenic'.

But now, Hardy has become a lord, which indeed confirmed Bing Xixi's thoughts.

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

At least... this Lord Hardy does not have that disgusting aristocratic style.

Moreover, there is a bottom line in doing things.

As for the forty or so people who were killed not long ago, Bing Xixi knew very well that they deserved to die.

On the eve of making a decision, his steps became more determined, and then he saw a very beautiful woman with an excellent figure, passing by him and entering Hadi's lord's mansion.

Hmm... this seems to be Mrs. Sissy.

Wait, she came to Hardy?

Will this lonely man and widow cause death?

Bing Xixi really likes Mrs. Qianqian, after all, the latter's temperament, every part of her body, grows above his XP.

"Damn it, this little Hardy's luck is so good, why don't we reverse it."

Bing Xixi said indignantly to the live broadcast room.

Then there was a happy laugh.
