Cut off my army's food supplies? I'll open a portal between the two worlds and max out my

The Anxi army's agricultural settlement teams carried out their labor and duty work in shifts.

Each patrol team, consisting of three people, conducts continuous patrols and is also the enforcer of the Anxi Town Public Security Regulations.

The rest of Anxi Town is stable, so the shelter is the focus of attention.

Just as the farce began, patrolling soldiers from the Anxi army arrived.

"Security officer! That new guy not only tried to cut in line but also hit Old Liu?"

The person next to him immediately complained.

"Security officer" is now the title for members of these patrol teams.

The lead security guard frowned and looked at the disheveled burly man: "Did you lay a hand on him?"

"No! No! Sir, they ganged up on me, a newcomer! Please let me explain!"

The slovenly man immediately began to argue his way out of it.

But the security guards didn't believe his excuses. After learning the truth from the testimonies of those around him, they subdued him directly.

The slovenly man tried to resist, but these soldiers of the Anxi army were the elite of the elite; their combat skills were far beyond what a vagrant like him could match. A powerful kick to the back of his knee sent the slovenly man sprawling to the ground, howling in pain.

The security guards ignored his cries of pain, tied him up, and reported the situation to Jiang Tian.

Jiang Tian then reported the situation to Li Wen.

After learning about the situation, Li Wen began to think about it.

Currently, the public security regulations in Anxi Town are not yet complete, and the basic frameworks of various departments have not yet been established.

It's not that Li Wen doesn't want to do this kind of work, but rather that Anxi Town currently has too small a population to support the overall framework.

However, maintaining order must be the primary focus.

The issue of refugee riots may seem like a big deal or a small deal. If it is not dealt with seriously, the number of refugees will only increase and more people will want to cause trouble. Therefore, Li Wen came up with a middle ground.

Labor reform.

"Detain him first, then supervise him to work every day. He must work ten hours a day to meet the standard. We will make a decision after a year based on his performance during that period."

"His food allowance should also be set at the lowest possible level."

"Yes, General."

Jiang Tian accepted the order and went to carry it out.

Li Wen continued to prepare for the establishment of trading posts and modern warehouses, as the scale of his transportation business was growing larger and larger, and the warehouses in the logistics park were no longer sufficient.

To avoid suspicion, every ten days or so, Li Wen would openly drive his truck to the garbage sorting station to handle business.

Fortunately, his current status is high enough that everyone assumes Li Wen is in charge of the logistics of the entire Venus Hotel, so they think it's reasonable for him to buy any supplies.

Otherwise, he would have to come up with a suitable reason when he buys things.

However, with the development of Anxi Town, the demand will definitely increase, and Li Wen needs to find a new transit center.

However, the immediate issue to be addressed is the shelter.

Those who cause trouble should not be let off lightly, but the door to indiscriminate killing should not be opened either. What Li Wen wants is order, not violent suppression.

When Li Wen executed those bandit leaders, he didn't hesitate at all, because these guys were connected to the Ministry of Order.

However, this vagrant is currently only causing trouble and is in violation of public order. At present, labor reform seems to be the simplest and most effective method.

Especially as other migrants were gradually absorbed into the Anxi Town system and acquired their own houses and land, while those who had committed crimes continued to be reformed, this stark contrast served as a warning to those who came after.

When the slovenly man learned the consequences of his actions, he was extremely indignant!

I only hit an old man, and I didn't do anything heinous, so why was I arrested?

"I refuse to accept this! I want to see the authorities! Let me see the authorities now!!"

The stable order in Anxi Town emboldened even the slovenly man to start causing trouble.

He was locked in the wooden hut, and nobody paid any attention to him.

When night fell and there was no movement outside, the slovenly man began to rub the rope with the pebbles he had hidden in his palm during the day. Once the rope was worn through, his hands and feet were freed.

The disheveled man, now free, first peered through the crack in the door to observe his surroundings. It was quiet outside, as if no one was on duty.

So he pried a strip of wood from the window crack and tried to pry open the bolt from the outside of the door through the crack.

After a long struggle, the slovenly man finally succeeded.

After succeeding, he did not intend to leave the shelter, but instead headed towards the stove.

Under the moonlight, the slovenly man searched in the dark for a while and finally found a cold metal object on the table.

kitchen knife!

It's quite sharp!

The slovenly man decided to take revenge first, and then get some food as travel expenses to leave this wretched place.

At this moment, the slovenly man revealed his ferocity. He was about to walk towards the rest area he had seen during the day when he was stopped after only a few steps.

The disheveled man tried to run away, but the bright flashlight blinded him instantly.

"The sun?! Why is there the sun so late at night?!"

The slovenly man groaned inwardly.

"Ha, I knew you weren't up to any good."

Jiang Tian is personally on duty tonight because he wants to see if this guy can be reformed.

The fact that his first choice after breaking free of his restraints was to find a weapon instead of running away filled Jiang Tian with extreme disappointment.

The general offered you a way to live, but you didn't choose it; now you're courting death.

"Take it down."

The slovenly man was now directly handcuffed and shackled.

"Sir! I was wrong! I... I was bewitched!"

The moment the slovenly man was shackled, he instantly became clear-headed.

The next day.

Li Wenyi had known for a long time that the refugee was planning to commit murder.

"It should be treated as murder."

This refugee's actions have crossed the line in Anxi Town. The simplest way to deal with such a person is to make an example of him.

That noon, Jiang Tian and his men had already set up the gallows.

After hearing what happened next, the refugees in the shelter and Old Liu were so angry that they pointed at the guy and cursed him.

"You heartless wretch! If Anxi Town hadn't taken you in, you would have starved to death in the Gobi Desert, feeding the wolves!"

"Pooh!"

After the gallows was set up, Jiang Tian immediately ordered the security guards to bring up the disheveled man.

"You are the first person in Anxi Town to experience this gallows."

"Execute."

Jiang Tian said.

The other security guards were about to put shackles on the disheveled man.

After the shackles were removed, the disheveled man felt no relief; instead, his legs went weak. He hadn't considered the consequences of his actions, only wanting to vent his anger and run away with the stolen goods. Now, facing imminent doom, his voice trembled as he cried out, "Sir! Sir, spare my life! I was wrong! I'm willing to undergo labor reform! I can work! I can do the work of three people!"

"I'll only eat one meal a day! Sir, I promise you! I truly know I was wrong! I promise!!! I will absolutely never do anything against the rules again!!"

The security guard remained unmoved by the disheveled man's pleas.

They knew perfectly well that the disheveled man in front of them wasn't genuinely repentant; he was just afraid of being punished.

The disheveled man's pleas for mercy didn't stop until he was on the gallows.

Below the stage, a group of refugees watched the disheveled man being executed, their eyes filled with not only awe but also a sense of exhilarating satisfaction.

These people are all displaced and destitute, who had already lost hope in life due to oppression. Now that they have finally found a place to stay in Anxi Town, they hope even more that Anxi Town can maintain stability in the long term.

People who disrupt order like this are not accepted by this group of refugees.

Li Wen was not on the stage, but watched the scene from afar. He was very pleased to see the refugees' reaction. This was exactly the effect Li Wen wanted, to make the refugees gradually regard Anxi Town as their home.

As the activities of people from northern deserts become more frequent, the number of migrants from the Yanshan area flowing into the Gobi Desert will only increase.

After the execution, Jiang Tian wrote down all the existing public security regulations of Anxi Town as public notices and posted them all over the town.

After seeing these public security regulations, the migrants not only did not feel restricted, but also felt more at ease, and they hoped that the place where they lived would have sufficient security.

Especially since people can now earn food through labor, everyone wants to settle down here.

Labor for reward is the core survival principle of Anxi Town, and also the core message directly conveyed to the residents of Anxi Town.

Li Wen wanted to build Anxi Town into a place free from class exploitation and oppression.

Although it is difficult to build such a territory from scratch, it is precisely because it is from scratch that Li Wen was given this opportunity.

He also had his own advantages: the 800 Anxi soldiers under his command and the logistical transport capabilities of the double-door system.

All of these things laid the groundwork for Li Wen to create a future for Anxi Town.

When the second batch of refugees reached thirty people, almost another month had passed.

During this month, in addition to supervising the construction progress of Anxi Town, Li Wen also had to deal with his family.

Because recently, Li Wen has been sending more and more money home.

In the past, Li Wen would transfer 500 yuan to his mother every month to support his parents. His parents understood where Li Wen got the 500 yuan... But recently, he has been transferring tens of thousands of yuan at a time. Where did that come from?

Today, Li Wen was caught red-handed. He had just finished his work and hung up the phone when his mother called.

"Hello, Mom?"

"Li Wen, why have you been transferring so much money to me and your dad lately? You haven't been doing anything illegal, have you?"

This is what Li's mother is most worried about.

They knew their son held considerable power in his job and were terrified he would go astray.

Li Wen was both amused and exasperated: "Mom, didn't I tell you and Dad about my promotion a few months ago? Because I work hard and have a serious attitude, the company promoted me."

Li's mother didn't believe it: "Child, don't talk nonsense. There's no such thing as a promotion just because you work hard these days!"

Li asked: "..."

For some reason, what my mom said actually made a lot of sense.

"Ahem, I'm really a logistics manager now. The logistics supplies I'm in charge of are no longer just for a few dozen people. With such a large workload, it's natural that my salary will increase."

Li Wen explained the pretext he had prepared for his parents once again.

They even took a picture of their work ID.

My mother's doubts have just been dispelled.

After asking Li Wen about his life on the phone, his mother hung up.

Before hanging up, Li Wen specifically instructed, "Mom, Dad, please don't save my money for me! I've finally managed to earn some money all my life, so please use it on yourselves. Don't work so hard, and don't ruin your health over trivial matters. My job will only get better and better in the future..."

"You silly child... Mom knows."

Li's mother hung up the phone with a trembling voice.

Li Wen genuinely hoped that his parents would treat him better. The older generation had suffered their whole lives, and it was time for them to rest.

Although hard work and perseverance are virtues.

But hardworking people shouldn't suffer forever.
