Volume Four, Section 209, Traffickers (1)
.Chapter 209 Human Trafficking (1)
Thunder was furious. Ye Kaihuai was assassinated in Anping City. Although the assassin was a little stupid and even Ye Kaihuai's hair was caught without hurting it, in Long Zhan's heart, this was a challenge to the imperial power and a challenge to his majesty of Long Zhan. Before he died, someone could not wait to jump out and get rid of his opponents. Then when he closed his eyes one day, wouldn't the Aolong Empire be divided into pieces and there will be constant civil wars, giving the surrounding neighbors an opportunity. This matter must be handled strictly.
Under a command, two unlucky assassins were broken into pieces by the car. As for the mastermind behind the scenes, Long Zhan, who was originally furious, also planned to issue an order to punish him, but was persuaded by Ye Zhen and other old ministers present. Small evil can be eliminated, and the big evil is temporarily suspended, because this is a move that will affect the whole body. If one is not controlled well, the matter will be out of control and trigger a civil war in advance. In order to give Ye Kaihuai more time to prepare for dealing with, the old ministers strongly advocate not to act behind the scenes for the time being, so as not to force them to jump over the wall.
It is necessary to warn. After that, the power of the party behind the scenes was suppressed by the emperor, and the commander behind the scenes was also found by Long Zhan to be scolded in the palace. Ye Kaihuai didn't care about this series of things. It was not that he was heartless, but that he knew clearly that he could only take over this loss. He had no choice but to take revenge. He wanted to take revenge and could only wait for the future. He rushed up without any ability, except to die.
Of course, in order to compensate and comfort Ye Kaihuai, Long Zhan agreed to Ye Kaihuai's request and wrote a decree to Ye Kaihuai on the spot.
"In view of the urgent need for labor in Fengyang Town construction, the lord of Fengyang Town, Ye Kaihuai, is particularly required to act cheaply. All departments should not make things difficult for them deliberately. If the violation is violated, the lord of Fengyang Town, Ye Kaihuai, is the one who is proud of this." After reciting the imperial edict, Lin Ruoxi looked up at Ye Kaihuai, who was full of smug faces, and asked in disbelief: "Is this true?"
"Of course, you didn't see the printed cover on it?" Ye Kaihuai asked proudly.
"How did you tell your grandfather? He actually coaxed him to give you this will." Lin Ruoxi asked with a strange expression. There was admiration, doubt, and curiosity in his expression.
"Sister Lin, is this order not good?" Seeing that Lin Ruoxi's expression was wrong, Ke Lin quickly asked.
Before Lin Ruoxi could speak, Ye Kaihuai asked strangely: "Hey, Ke Lin, when did you have such a good relationship with Lin Ruoxi? Have you called me sister?"
"We have always had a good relationship, you just don't know. As for calling Sister Lin Ruoxi, it's because she is two months older than me. Are you satisfied with this answer?" Collin glared and replied angrily.
"Satisfied, satisfied, but I just asked casually, where are you angry?" Ye Kaihuai asked strangely.
"Who said I was angry? I was in a good mood." Collin said with his eyes staring at the boss and staring at Ye Kaihuai.
"Are you still saying you're not angry? What you said obviously doesn't match your expression." Ye Kaihuai looked disbelieved.
"Okay, okay, Ye Kaihuai, please say less. Kelin, didn't you ask me if this decree is bad? Let me tell you, this decree is really great." Lin Ruoxi said to Kelin in a smooth situation.
"That's great? What's the good thing?" Collin asked in confusion.
"Fortunately, these two are cheap," Lin Ruoxi explained to Collin patiently: "With these two are cheap, when Ye Kaihuai works in the future, once someone dares to make trouble, as long as he sends this imperial edict, basically all the problems can be solved. This is an imperial edict. If someone dares not listen to Ye Kaihuai, Ye Kaihuai can use the reason to resist the imperial edict to rectify those guys who are making trouble in secret. Those guys cannot resist, unless they want to rebel now."
"Oh, I understand. This imperial edict is the same as the Shangfang sword in the story Ye Kaihuai told us. Except for the emperor, he can deal with anyone he wants to deal with." Ke Lin suddenly realized.
"That's what it means." Lin Ruoxi said with a smile, "What's left is to see what Ye Kaihuai has to plan?" The four women looked at Ye Kaihuai in unison. Ye Kaihuai scratched his head and spread his hands, "Don't look at me like this, I know I'm very good and attract your attention, but when you look at me like this, my heart is still a little bit faster."
"Be serious." Ke Lin patted Ye Kaihuai's shoulder and said angrily: "Hurry up and tell me your idea, let's help you refer to it."
Ye Kaihuai smiled, "I thought about this idea on the way to Anping, but I didn't expect that because of the assassin, what I was going to do would be solved so simply."
"Hurry up and talk about the key points," Collin urged.
"Okay, that's what I'm here for Anping, you know that I want to find a way to increase the population of Fengyang Town..."
"No, Ye Kaihuai, although with the help of this imperial edict, if you forcefully migrate the population, it will be very unfavorable to your reputation. Moreover, the loss of population will also harm the interests of some people. What can these people do to you because of the imperial edict? However, it is better not to do this kind of thing that makes people hold grudges." Before Ye Kaihuai finished speaking, Lin Ruoxi had already spoken out against it.
Ye Kaihuai rolled his eyes and said to Lin Ruoxi: "Lin Ruoxi, can you listen to me? Originally, I really wanted to ask my grandfather to issue an order to move the people from some areas to my Fengyang Town, but later I remembered a sentence that said it was hard to leave my hometown, so I gave up this idea and changed it to a more acceptable idea that would not offend people too much."
"What's the idea?"
"From two aspects, one is to recruit refugees. In recent years, some places in the Aolong Empire have been suffering from natural disasters, and many people have become paupers with nothing. Recruiting these people to Fengyang Town can reduce the burden on the empire, and secondly, it also solves the problem of insufficient population within Fengyang Town. Thirdly, it will not offend those lords, and kill three birds with one stone..."
"Sister, I understand the first two points Ye Kaihuai said, but what he said... I don't understand. He is the one who robbed those lords. How could those lords not hate Ye Kaihuai?" Lin Xiruo asked Lin Ruoxi, who listened to Ye Kaihuai's words in confusion and nodded frequently.
"Xiruo, among the lords in the empire, there are still many lords who do not care about the lives and death of the people under their rule. Most of the refugees Ye Kaihuai wanted to recruit were lords of that type. After the natural disaster, the farmland was not harvested, and those lords had to pay for the people out of their own pockets. In their eyes, Ye Kaihuai was doing this to help them reduce their burdens, and maybe he would be grateful to Ye Kaihuai."
Speaking of this, Lin Ruoxi showed a smirk and continued: "When they find that there is no one in their territory for farming, they probably won't be grateful to Ye Kaihuai anymore, but it was too late to say anything at that time, and everything was caused by them."
"Oh, I understand." Lin Xiruo nodded, stopped talking, and waited for Ye Kaihuai to continue speaking.
Seeing that Lin Ruoxi had finished explaining to Lin Xiruo, Ye Kaihuai continued: "The other aspect of my attack is slaves. This time it is different from the kind of person who ran in the slave farm a while ago. I plan to directly cooperate with the army."
"League? Ye Kaihuai, are you planning to buy prisoners of war directly?" Lin Ruoxi thought for a while and immediately understood what Ye Kaihuai meant.
Ye Kaihuai gave Lin Ruoxi a thumbs up and praised: "I am worthy of being the student president, and my brain is fast."
"Are you too much, but can this method work?"
"No problem. Lin Ruoxi, the army's expenses are huge, especially during wartime, which is even more amazing. The Empire's funds are limited, and in addition, they have to spend money to provide disaster relief during this period, so the funds that can be allocated to the legion will be even less. Otherwise, the Orc Alliance will not have your aunt back to Anping to report on her job at this time. In the past, when Fei Yu and Tiger Roar two legions were released to the border, the Orc Alliance had long retreated obediently, so how dare you stay at the border to confront the Tiger Roar Legion?"
"What are you going to do?" Lin Ruoxi asked. After thinking about it carefully, it was indeed as Ye Kaihuai said. Although her aunt Lin Feiyu liked to touch her and her sister Xiruo's face, she still cared and loved her. If there were any novelties, she would always bring a copy to herself and her sister. This time, after listening to Ye Kaihuai's suggestion, she went to see her with her sister Xiruo when she was paying her grandfather, and found that her brows were a little entangled, as if she was worried about military spending?
"I want to meet your aunt first and find out her voice. If she wants, I will buy prisoners of war from the Fierce Rain Legion and the Tiger Roar Legion and arrange a dedicated person to take charge of this matter."
"When do you want to see her? I'll ask for it for you." Lin Ruoxi made a decision in her heart and asked Ye Kaihuai.
"Aren't you afraid to meet your aunt?" Ye Kaihuai asked strangely.
"My aunt treats me and my sister very well, but she just has this problem of being embarrassed. This time she went back to Anping, I found that she seemed to have something to do. Maybe it was what you just guessed, and I want to help her."
"That's it, okay, then I'll ask you." Ye Kaihuai nodded and said to Lin Ruoxi, then turned to Kelin and said, "Kelly, if you and your sister have something to do these days, hurry up and do it. I guess we will return Fengyang in a few days."
"So urgent?" Lin Xiruo asked in surprise.
"After the matter is dealt with, there is probably a lot of things in Fengyang Town that need me to do, and I must rush back to deal with them as soon as possible. And the most important thing is that if I don't build Fengyang Town as soon as possible, what capital do I have to marry your sisters and Yuege who is far away in the Elf Empire?"
After saying this, the Lin sisters blushed. Lin Xiruo said shyly: "Bah, who said he was going to marry you?"
