I am doing construction in the cultivation world

Chapter 21 Asset Statistics
When the nine-year-old girl saw her loving father, she didn't wait for the flying carpet to find a place to land, and was still a meter or two above the heads of the crowd, so she jumped into Yang Butcher's arms aggrieved. The impulsiveness scared her Tang Xiao jumped, but fortunately, Butcher Yang had quick eyesight and quick hands, and he caught his daughter steadily.

Tang Xiao turned around helplessly and said to the other children:

"Don't worry, go find your parents after landing."

The children immediately nodded obediently, and then looked around the crowd with small eyes.

In order to be more relaxed this time, Tang Xiao decided to send the remaining twelve children home in two batches.

Leaving Zeng Xiaohua in the cave on the mountain, she flew to the city with her six children. She followed the direction the children pointed to and went to several houses. Who knew that there was no one at home. I heard that everyone went to the city lord's mansion. Tang Xiao was afraid. They were at a disadvantage, so they asked the way and sent the child outside the city lord's mansion.

Weeping and venting in his father's arms for a while, Butcher Yang just patted his daughter on the back to comfort him.

Wang Fukang felt uneasy when he saw that it was Tang Xiao who was coming. However, after all, he had been the city lord for these years. How could he escape without knowing the situation? What if things were not as bad as he thought?
There was an open space in front of Wang Fukang at the scene, and Tang Xiao didn't recognize him, so he directly landed the flying carpet here, and then watched the families in the crowd rushing over and the children rushing down the flying carpet to make a few balls .

Wang Fukang cleared his throat, controlled his tone, and said solemnly and gently:

"This little fairy, did you visit Yuyang Mountain?"

Tang Xiao raised his eyebrows and looked at the rich man, huh?This city looks very poor, but there are still people who dress so well?
The gold embroidery on the brocade robe, tsk tsk, are there any golden embroidery threads these days?Even if it is embroidered with real gold, there is also a jade belt around the waist. It is very valuable at first glance. He raised his head and looked at the door of the mansion. This middle-aged man with a shiny face should be the lord of the city.

Not wanting to deal with such black-hearted old money, Tang Xiao turned his head and said loudly to the gathered crowd:
"From now on, the mountain behind here will not be called Yuyang Mountain, but... it will be called Wawa Mountain!"

Tang Xiao felt that the name was very appropriate. There were dolls on the mountain, and there was nothing wrong with him. He gave himself a thumbs up in his heart, ignored the crowd's uproar, and continued announcing angrily:

"There is no Yuyang Cave on the mountain anymore. I haven't decided what to call it. Anyway, I will live there from now on. The black-hearted Sanxian is dead and can no longer harm your children."

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, especially the six families who didn't see their children. Although Qian Si was also shocked, he sold the child himself. He looked around and found another person in the crowd who had the same expression as himself. Complex, looking at the reunited families.

This man is called Li Qiang, and he comes from Lijia Village like Li Wenchang. His wife and two sons are at home to take care of his elderly parents.

He and his father are the only two main workers in the family. Several fields are scattered in the middle of the mountain. The old man is getting old. He fell down and almost died. This season has not yet harvested. How can there be money? healing?

The family had no choice but to sell their eight-year-old girl and get five taels of gold from the city lord's palace manager. Not only did she treat the old man's injury, but she also bought several acres of fertile land at the foot of the mountain for the family. The money can also be kept for the son to grow up and marry a wife.

It can be said that sacrificing a girl makes the whole family happy.

But they also heard the cry last night. The old lady and daughter-in-law were afraid and asked him to come to the city early in the morning to inquire, so he was standing alone in the crowd at the moment.

He originally thought that maybe the fairy wanted children just to add some servants, after all, it would be easier to raise them by himself...

I heard the daughter of Yang Butcher's family crying that the gods forced them to eat worms, raised worms in their stomachs, and cut up the worms in their stomachs to eat after raising them, and all the people who cut their stomachs died...

The trace of luck in Li Qiang's heart was completely torn to pieces. He approached another place with a complex expression. The child cried even more sadly. He said that the immortal did not give him food, but only allowed him to take medicine and drink water. Yesterday morning, he saw with his own eyes that there was a child. The child's bulging belly was cut open at once, blood was everywhere, and the screaming sound scared several babies to pee their pants.

The crowd gradually became noisy, and the six families who had not seen their children even began to cry. The calmer family members hurriedly stepped forward and asked Tang Xiao:
"Little fairy, then, then our child..."

"Little Fairy, is our child still there? Why didn't we see him back together?"

Tang Xiao looked at the excited parents, pressed his little hand and said:
"There are six other children I will send down later, and the rest will be gone."

Hearing that there were only six left, everyone heard that the city lord sent thirty children up the mountain at one time. As soon as they saw six, there were six left, and someone suddenly fainted on the spot.

Some people angrily remembered Wang Fukang's scam, so everyone clamored for Wang Fukang to give an explanation.

Looking at the gate of the mansion at this time, there was no sign of Wang Fukang, and even the guards and maids hid back in the house, and the gate of the mansion was closed tightly.

The city guard received the transfer order, and even the city guard was thrown over. More than 500 people surrounded the noisy crowd outside the city lord's mansion, and the tense atmosphere tensed everyone's nerves.

Tang Xiao couldn't help frowning.

At this time, a little old man wearing a washed-white official robe hurried over with a dozen government officials. The old man was not wearing an official hat. When he came out, his shoes were on backwards. He was changing shoes while running. Somewhat funny.

The city guard's sword stopped the old man and the yamen servant, saying:

"The city lord has ordered that no entry or exit is allowed outside the mansion gate!"

"What are you going to do this time?" The county master stomped his feet and said:
"Hurry up and report, I want to see City Lord Wang!"

At this moment, Tang Xiao did not go back immediately to pick up the remaining six children. Instead, he rode a flying carpet over the city guards and directly entered the city lord's palace. The guards could stop the people, but they could not stop the immortals. They could only watch helplessly, and they went there one after another. Neither did the informant.

In fact, there are many people in the city guard who think they are loyal and want to inform the city lord that the little fairy has entered. A 17-year-old city guard with a thick head and a tiger head scratched his head and raised his foot to report, but was kicked by his corporal leader. Tell him to stand still, and he dare not go.

This little corporal leader's family is in the middle of the crowd at the moment. His seven-year-old son is lying in the arms of his grandparents and mother, weeping and crying. It hurts him to see him. The city lord said his child has a fairy fate. He's going to be a fairy boy, what kind of a goddamn fairy boy is he doing.

Although he came to surround people together according to the transfer order, if there was a conflict, he didn't intend to do his duty faithfully, at worst, he would quit!
……

The crowd was noisy, and the little old man who was stopped outside wiped the sweat from his forehead from time to time. He didn't know what Wang Fukang was trying to do. He was stopped for a while, and people asked him. It turned out that Yuyang Sanxian actually used dolls to grow spirits. Gu, when the Gu is completed, it needs to be cut out alive! !
On weekdays, the city and the surrounding villages made many offerings to that man, but he was unexpectedly a man-eating demon. As the lord of the city, Wang Fukang not only did not make decisions for the people, but also took the initiative to make offerings to his children to help Yuyang Sanxian harm him. Inventing lies in the city to whitewash peace...

There may be helplessness in this, but as the city lord, he pays a lot of miscellaneous taxes on weekdays, bullies men and women a lot, and does a lot of things to cover up his relatives' encroachment on land.

The old man was furious and felt that Wang Fukang was really nothing. It was a pity that he had no real power and only had a dozen or so government officials under his command. They were no match for more than 500 city guards. Otherwise, Wang Fukang would have been dealt with by him.

The quarrel did not last long, Tang Xiao tied Wang Fukang and a concubine with fairy ropes and threw them outside the gate of the mansion. The carriage slipped away, and now the old mother and the first wife are still packing up their belongings and haven't gone out, so they don't even know that he slipped away first.

It was a pity that his carriage could not pass Tang Xiao's Aladdin flying carpet, and the two of them were tied together and fell in embarrassment in front of everyone.

The noisy voice stopped.

After asking the common people and the villagers for their opinions, Tang Xiao temporarily threw the city lord's order in Wang Fukang's arms to the anxious-looking county lord, and asked him to deal with the funeral affairs, while he went back to pick up the remaining six children.

The city guard recognizes orders but does not recognize people. It is not a big city, and I don't know where I learned these broken rules, so now the old man can command these more than 500 people.

The reason why the old man was given this opportunity was mainly because Li Wenchang mentioned that when he was looking for his son, the clerk he knew in the county government office was the disciple of the county lord. It is said that the old man is a straightforward and kind-hearted person, but unfortunately he has no real power .

Then give him real power and see what he will do, and at worst, take back the mayor's order in time.

Tang Xiao left on the flying carpet, and heard Wang Fukang's roar in the distance.

"Have you forgotten who pays you all the time? Let me go! You bunch of bitches! You are a wolf with white eyes!..."

The second wave of children was quickly sent back to the gate of the city lord's mansion. By this time, the crowd and the city guards had basically been dismissed by the county lord, leaving only a few families waiting for the children.

Qian Si and Li Qiang didn't leave, and finally found that the remaining six families had received their children. There was no other family waiting except Qian Si and Li Qiang. They looked at each other for a while, and finally Li Qiang stepped forward to find :
"Little fairy, my eight-year-old daughter's name is Li Fang. She...she..."

Li Qiang was a little bit hesitant to ask, because he heard that a child had been dissected, he didn't know how long it would take to raise Gu, he only knew that all the living ones should have returned, but he didn't see Li Fang.

Seeing him asking, Qian Si also summoned up the courage to ask:

"That... little fairy, my Qian Xiaosi, an eight-year-old boy, is he still there?"

Tang Xiao remembered that these two children were the ones whose family didn't want them back. This wasn't just a child who ran away from home because of a tantrum. Since they were sold to death by their family, why should they be allowed to come back?

Tang Xiao did not mock the two of them, nor did he comfort them. His expression became cold and he said:

"No, it's just these children. Let's live a good life by ourselves from now on."

After saying that, he turned around and left on the flying carpet.

Qian Si didn't feel very disappointed, anyway, the city lord couldn't take back the five taels of gold in his bosom now.As long as you have money, he rubbed his hands and prepared to go back to burn incense and take a bath before fighting the casino again!
Li Qiang looked at Tang Xiao walking away, his heart felt like a stone, his steps were heavy and tight, he hunched over and slowly walked towards the city gate...

Tang Xiao, who returned to the cave, checked the homework of the two older children.

Wang Xiaoning, with the help of Zeng Xiaohua, properly arranged everyone's lunch. At this moment, dinner is being prepared, and several children are helping to pick and wash vegetables, which looks decent.

Wang Gouwa's statistics are relatively rough. After all, he learned to memorize some counts from the steward who purchased them from the City Lord's Mansion on weekdays. Without a good education, it is inevitable that there will be miscalculations.

Looking at the busy dolls, Xie Wanying floating aside smiled and called:

"Little Immortal Lord, Little Immortal Lord! I saw this doll ordering the goods in the kitchen, so I helped you order the treasures from the treasure house. This Yuyang Sanxian occupied such a rural place and actually saved a lot of worldly gold and silver. , It’s a pity that there are not many cultivation resources.”

Xie Wanying opened her mouth in disappointment as she spoke.

Tang Xiao raised his eyebrows, forgetting that there is still this thing to use. Of course there are no cultivation resources in the treasure house. Aren't they all in this Immortal's storage bag?

Throwing Xie Wanying into the middle-grade storage bag, it's time for a big asset statistic!
The task of statistics was handed over to Xie Wanying, and Tang Xiao turned his attention to the system.
