Chapter 337 Secret Development

When he arrived at his territory, Wang Ren took out the city lord's seal and the territory division agreement document and gave them to the current city lord of Yanlong City. Although the latter was full of reluctance, he still packed up his belongings that day, evacuated with all his clan members, and returned. Report from the Imperial Capital.

On that day, millions of people in Yanlong City, as well as some businessmen and nobles, all knew that the city lord of Yanlong City had been replaced by a young man. Therefore, every representative of the forces in Yanlong City had their own small calculations, taking advantage of the new city. If you have not yet established a firm foothold, strive for more benefits.

Unfortunately, they miscalculated. When Wang Ren was about to arrive at Yanlong City, he had already purchased 10,044-star Red Police soldiers and two four-star Red Police special forces kings. They could not be considered for protection, but they could show off their appearance.

As soon as they entered Yanlong City, the Red Police troops took control of the city gates, disbanded the existing garrison and patrol troops, and replaced them all with four-star Red Police soldiers.

After stabilizing the foundation, Wang Ren purchased another 300,000 four-star red police soldiers, but they were not brought into the city. Instead, they were stationed outside the city to support the city at any time.

"Report to the city lord, the heads of the five major families in the city are all here."

"Well, let them come in. Also, send me all the accounting books of their five major families over the years." After saying that, Wang Ren continued to look at some important documents piled up in the city lord's palace.

"Join City Lord, Lord City Lord is well." The five clan leaders stood in a row and bowed to Wang Ren, but they seemed to be respectful, but in fact they were filled with unruly feelings.

"Haha, Zhao Qian, Sun Li, and Zhang, five clan leaders, your clan has been in this city for hundreds of years. Each clan has been formed through wars, blood, and countless corpses. This city lord has just arrived, and it is not suitable to intervene now. , but things have to be done sooner or later, so it’s better to make a decision early.”

"I don't know what the Lord of the City means, so you might as well just say it. If we can help the Lord of the City, we will do our best to help."

"Haha, the thing is very simple. From today on, all the taxes of the five major families will be increased three times. In addition, each family is only allowed to retain 10,000 acres of fertile land. Anything more than that will be handed over to the city lord's palace for record. Each family is not allowed to exceed 5,000 private soldiers. , and those who exceed them will be punished by the city’s army for treason, that’s all, clan leaders, please listen carefully to what this city lord said.”

"Haha, the City Lord seems to have gone too far. Isn't the City Lord afraid that doing this will force our five major families to rebel?" Patriarch Qian responded with a sullen face.

"Oh...what are you doing? You might as well say it straight. The Kuangbian Empire has divided Yanlong City to this city lord, instead of granting the city lord this empty position. Therefore, Yanlong City is my city lord's private territory, and I let you live here. Just stay here and let me disappear. You will never be able to run away. Don’t ever doubt the words of this city lord."

"Hmph, it's impossible. How could the emperor who was crazy about the empire cede the land so easily? Brothers, this person must be crazy. Don't pay attention to it. You and I leave quickly, merge our armies, and destroy this "Silk." After Patriarch Zhao finished speaking, he turned around and prepared to leave.

Regarding their departure, Wang Ren had no intention of stopping them, "Everything should proceed according to the original plan, and the speed must be fast, so as to prevent the Kuaibing Empire from having any chance to peek."

"Yes, Commander" a four-star special forces king turned and left.

When the departed clan heads returned to their own clans and mobilized their family members to prepare for a fight with the City Lord's Mansion, they suddenly received very bad news one after another.

It turned out that all the business houses, farmland, and restaurants of the five major families were sealed, confiscated, or directly destroyed, and five city defense armies firmly surrounded the five major families' residences.

what happened? Isn't this city lord new? There is no support from any force. Which force do these soldiers belong to? Did Emperor Kuangbing really cede Yanlong City to this city lord? How can this be.

The direct descendants of the five major families, their branches, and private soldiers who were surrounded all looked confused. This densely packed army in uniform uniforms numbered at least hundreds of thousands. The total number of their five major families was less than 50,000, excluding the elderly and weak. There are less than 40,000 people left who can fight.

"No more fighting. Our Sun family has decided to surrender to the city lord. I also asked the city lord to have a large number of people." The Sun family leader saw that something was wrong. This was far beyond their expectations. For the sake of the future of the family, they had no choice but to endure it.

But the Sun family had just surrendered. Suddenly, there was a loud bang, and in the panic of everyone, the head of the Sun family exploded into several halves, and he died on the spot.

"Everyone who has been put on the city lord's blacklist will be killed without leaving any survivors alive. Let's start the attack." The special forces king gave the order to attack.

Immediately, all the four-star red police units launched an attack. Under the devastation of the powerful weapons, every private soldier, each member of the collateral clan, and even those members of the direct clan could not escape death.

"Fight, everyone, rush out. Every one of you who can escape, report what happened here to the Kuangbian Empire. This city lord is obviously fake. He must be a spy from another country." A family elder shouted, holding up the energy shield. .

Unfortunately, in the next second, an interstellar rocket killed him instantly, taking away a wave of incompetent soldiers.

Longyan City has long been under martial law. Millions of civilians have been ordered to stay at home and are not allowed to come out. Once someone comes out recklessly and is killed, the city lord's palace will not pay too much attention. In other words, at this time, anyone who walks out of the house will be killed by the soldiers. Manslaughter, death is in vain.

Some private soldiers or family members who fled to the streets fled frantically, and some frantically knocked on the doors of some residents, praying to be opened so that they could take shelter.

But how dare the citizens of Yanlong City who have already received the instructions? Anyone who dares to open the door to people from the five major families will be the same as being a shield. If found out, they will all be shot to death. They will not be able to reason with you at all.

In this way, it seemed that this had become a small episode. In just three hours, the five major families and 47,000 people were all killed without a single person left alive. Then the whole city began to send civilian representatives to the city lord's mansion to discuss.

The so-called negotiation was just a word. In front of Wang Ren's inhumane killing, these civilian representatives dared not say a word. Wang Ren said whatever he said, but after contact, they thought that the city lord would exploit them even more. , but Wang Ren’s first words stunned them.

"Dear fellow villagers, you are all representatives recommended by various villages and tribes. I will not say nonsense. The assets of the five major families. This city lord has decided to set up a poverty alleviation organization. At that time, every place and every person in the city will be treated. It is really difficult to conduct a detailed investigation. Humanitarian help has been given to all the land, and the land of the five major families is now owned by this city lord. If you want to rent it, you can put it forward. This city lord does not charge any rent, but When you have a good harvest, the City Lord's Mansion will collect 50% of the harvest for you, and the remaining 50% will be yours."

"Thank you very much, Lord City Lord. I and other common people kowtow to Lord City Lord. Lord City Lord is simply a god." As Wang Ren handed out benefits one by one, 18 representatives of the city citizens took the initiative to kneel on the ground and kowtow to Wang Ren for his kindness.
