Lord of all the people: Only I can summon the immortal troops

Chapter 172 Trivial Matters in the Back Hall

Those of them who were subordinates failed to manage the city well and asked the lord to go down to the city to deal with it in person, so they were all a little ashamed, as if that was all their abilities.

However, Zhang Lu did not blame them. His tax system was somewhat copied from his previous life. Although many things were beneficial to the people, they were not suitable for this environment. He could only rely on a tough attitude to suppress opposition.

In fact, his first version was much more radical than what is currently implemented. After some revisions by Wen Zhong and Wang Hai, it was implemented only after they felt it could be implemented in this world.

However, Wen Zhong also warned Zhang Lu in advance that the implementation of these policies would definitely cause a strong response from the noble families. If they could successfully resist, the benefits would be long-term.

First of all, after the news of their taxation spreads, the city they attack will definitely arouse resistance from the aristocratic families, making it more difficult to attack, but at the same time, it will also attract refugees and people from other cities to join them for a long time.

After Wen Zhong's consideration, combined with the special conditions of the territory, he still suggested that Zhang Lu implement this version of taxation. Ordinary forces did not dare to offend the aristocratic family because they were afraid that without the aristocratic family, they would not be able to recruit professionals. Unlike the lords, they could directly Select those who meet the qualifications from the refugees to be directly transformed, and they can be trained for a period of time to form combat capabilities.

It’s just that professionals consume too much food and grass, so pay attention to the proportion of soldiers to the population.

Zhang Lu waved his hand, motioning for them all to go down, and then went to the back hall alone. Because he was in a hurry, he didn't bring his wife with him. It just so happened that all kinds of things had happened one after another during this period, and he was a little tired. After the threat, The Hailin City family asked him to have a good rest in the remaining time.

As soon as he walked to the back hall, a maid immediately came up and followed Zhang Lu. Now he is the city lord of the three cities. Some people call him the city lord, and some people call him lord. However, the city is a subordinate of the territory, and one day it will be needed. When the candidate for the city lord is selected, it will be inconvenient for him to live in the city lord's mansion.

You should think about where to build a separate courtyard, and live in a separate courtyard when you are not in Lingxiao Palace.

As he was thinking about it, he suddenly found that the door to the room next to him was open. Inside this room was a huge swimming pool, which was steaming right now.

He asked with some confusion: "Do you usually prepare warm water? What a waste!"

The maid was a little afraid of Zhang Lu. When she was asked, she trembled all over. Then she realized what she was doing and immediately stepped forward and said, "Usually the bathhouse is only cleaned. Because I knew in advance that the lord was coming, I specially prepared warm water."

Zhang Lu nodded. He just wanted to relax. Since everything was prepared for him, let's not waste it. He immediately walked into the bathing place and started to take off his clothes.

Upon seeing this, several maids hurried forward and wanted to help Zhang Lu take off his clothes, but were stopped by Zhang Lu who was not used to it.

He doesn't have the habit of having others help him get dressed and undressed.

The maid who was stopped by Zhang Lu shivered, took two steps back and knelt down, and said: "Lord, atone for your sins!"

Zhang Lu was a little confused. What happened to them? Isn’t it just that he doesn’t let them help him take off his clothes?

"Okay, I'm just not used to others serving me like this. Don't be too cautious. I'm not a bad person."

After hearing his words, the maid stood up tremblingly. They were originally children from ordinary families in the Huang Kingdom and were selected to become the maids of the city lord's palace. The Huang Kingdom was an imperial country with very strict classes. In addition, Zhang Lu was in the Huang Kingdom. The name of the country.

It can only be said that demons are still too kind.

He killed more than half of the aristocratic families in Newlan City and Yunlin City. Now he went on a killing spree when he came to Hailin City. In their eyes, Zhang Lu had become a murderous tyrant.

Zhang Lu's current series of measures are of great benefit to the people, but time has not yet allowed these benefits to be revealed. As for the aristocratic family? The biggest reliance of an aristocratic family is management talents and professionals. Normally, if a city lord offends an aristocratic family, it will face the dilemma of talent vacancy, but Zhang Lu is an exception.

Character summoning, big exams, and troop transformations. With these three powerful tools, the threat of the aristocratic family became empty talk. Their last resort was just to control the business. But under Wang Hai's series of business policies and talent promotion, their sales channels Being occupied step by step, they and the other aristocratic families could not defeat Wang Hai alone!

However, when a businessman and the God of Wealth go against each other, the outcome can be imagined.

Stripping himself down to just his pants, Zhang Lu stepped into the warm water step by step. The water temperature was a little high because he had just put it in, but as a professional, Zhang Lu didn't care at all.

Feeling the warm water around him, Zhang Lu closed his eyes. This time he did not enter a state of meditation, but simply slept.

While he was sleeping, the maids kept coming in and out, carrying buckets of hot water to add to the bath to prevent the water temperature from falling. Several small holes at the bottom of the bath slowly drained the water outward to prevent the water from overflowing. .

After he fell asleep, another group of maids came in, each wearing light gauze, standing next to Zhang Lu, waiting for him to wake up.

Zhang Lu had already sensed these people. Even if he fell asleep, their movements were still in Zhang Lu's consciousness.

I don't know how long it took, but the maids were a little tired from standing. Zhang Lu opened his eyes, looked behind him and prepared to put on clothes.

Just turning around made him take two steps back.

I saw that the maids who came in later were all wearing thin gauze, with nothing on underneath, and they could be seen at a glance.

"Where are you from?"

He has an impression of the maids in the Lord's Mansion of Hailin City, and his spiritual sense allows him to remember the appearance of others, but he has never seen these girls who are generally sixteen to eighteen years old.

The leader bit his lower lip, came forward and said in a sweet tone: "Lord City Lord, we are sent to the City Lord's Mansion by various aristocratic families to serve you."

Zhang Lu was a little speechless. These aristocratic families probably expressed their submission attitude in this way and wanted Zhang Lu to let them go, but this was obviously impossible.

Is he the kind of person who can't control himself? He could control himself after lying together with Nv Wan for so many days, not to mention that Nina was much better than Nv Wan, who was infinitely worse than them.

No, why say Nina.

Seeing that Zhang Lu was angry, these girls immediately knelt down, big tears dripping from their eyes, but they did not dare to cry. These girls were basically helpless children. If Zhang Lu did not take them in, then There's really nowhere to go.

Zhang Lu also understands, but doing such a thing will only make him hate those aristocratic families even more. Everyone in Newland City knows that the maid in his back palace has an employment relationship with him, and is considered a subordinate, not a domestic servant. All connections, and Wang Jiang can come with information immediately, even if they have a mission, they can find out quickly.

"From now on, just be like them. Don't dress like this. I don't know if you were sent as undercover agents on purpose or simply as maids. But tell the forces behind you that as long as you have a clear conscience, you can rest assured. Otherwise, No method will work!"
