Starting Today, I’ll Work as a City Lord

"I'm going to inspect." Maoer Niang waved her hand and said, she was going to inspect the intelligence organization and collect yesterday's information for the young master.

"Go." Nicole said with a smile. She wanted to tidy up the castle. The young master said that in the spring of next year, she would start to renovate the castle.

"..."

"Tat Tat Tat..."

Tissy ran out of the castle shyly, and only realized when she came to the street outside. She didn't plan to go out today, but she didn't expect to run out habitually...

"Let's go to the big market." Tees turned her head and looked at the castle, feeling that she would definitely be asked embarrassing topics when she went back at this time.

"Tat Tat Tat..."

Diss walked on the road, looking around with purple eyes, wandering aimlessly, and came to the entrance of the big market, and saw the fat bear enthusiastically attracting customers.

"Give me a lollipop." Tees went over and said, she hadn't eaten a lollipop for three days.

"Huh? It's Captain Tess, you look so beautiful today." Fat Bear praised and handed over a lollipop.

"Thank you." Diss gave the coin and walked away with the lollipop. Today feels good, not as scary as in the dream.

She walked along, greeting passers-by from time to time, and soon came to the inside of the big market, and heard noises coming from the front. It was the boxing ring, and many people went up to fight in the early morning.

"Hit him, beat him, how dare a slave be so fierce."

"Bah, beat him up, the mere slave has such a temper, if it wasn't for the kindness of the city lord, the slave would have been kicked out of the city long ago."

"Hey, what are you talking about? What happened to the slaves? The city lord said that we are free citizens now."

"Hahaha...then the slave brand on the back of your hand doesn't think so, you are a slave."

"Shut up, do you want to refute the judgment of the city owner?"

"laugh……"

Tees stood outside the crowd, pursing her lips, holding her right arm tightly with her left hand. She remembered that when the troublemaker was captured three days ago, her sleeves were just pulled up a little, revealing the brand of a slave, but the troublemaker scolded her as a slave, even though he was knocked unconscious by her.

The nightmare also started from that day.

Hearing such words again today made Tess feel very heavy. She turned around and walked away. She suddenly wanted to go back to the castle room. Perhaps, it should be time to leave Xiyang City? Are you looking for Miss Bella?

What Niujiaoniang didn't see was that in the crowd, there were a few strange pairs of eyes watching her leave, and then the voices yelling at the slaves also disappeared, as if the conflict didn't exist.

Chapter 0458 target is horned mother.

As night fell, Xiyang City was shrouded in darkness, and the bustling Xiyang City returned to calm. There were a few people walking in a hurry on the street. They were rushing to see a shadow play. There was only one nightlife place in Xiyang City.

In the study of the castle, Liu Feng, who just finished dinner, is dealing with government affairs. He is checking the last leak of the pontoon bridge. This pontoon bridge will be used for several years, and it is not a once-a-year product.

Of course, if there is a flood, there will be no rescue, and the pontoon bridge will definitely not be able to support too much water flow. This is considered a natural disaster, but it is not included in his calculations.

"Phew... it's done." Liu Feng breathed a sigh of relief, and put away a few pages of design drawings of the pontoon bridge. He marked on the drawings what should be paid attention to in this era.

After all, it started from scratch, so if I don’t write in detail, I’m afraid that this group of newcomers who built the pontoon bridge will make a one-time pontoon bridge for him.

"Master, let's take a break." Mina chewed dried fish, sitting at the corner of the table, shaking her long legs, and flicking her cat's tail from time to time.

"Hmm!" Liu Feng leaned back against the chair, made a lazy nasal sound, frowned and thought about who he was looking for to build the pontoon bridge.

"Mina, help me find out, whoever builds bridges in the city, wooden bridges are fine." Liu Feng said slowly, a little experience is better than someone who doesn't know anything at all.

"Yes." Mina clapped her hands, took out a notepad from her arms and remembered it, and sent the order to the intelligence organization tomorrow.

"By the way, what about today's information?" Liu Feng raised his eyebrows and asked, he would read what happened in Xiyang City when he had time.

"Here." Mina handed over several documents on the desktop. Each document recorded the same type of things, and they were all classified.

For example, rumors, all kinds of rumors will be recorded in the same type of file. For example, fighting, which is another type.

"Heh~" Liu Feng's black eyes narrowed slightly, and he said indifferently, "Selling salt in private, it seems that there will always be people who take risks when there are benefits."

"Master, we have already got the number of people. There are seven people in total. They went to the common people to buy green salt privately, and then scattered them out of Xiyang City." Mina said coldly, a saber appeared in her hand, and it was turning flexibly. .

She hates these tricksters, all they seek is the young master's wealth.

Civilians in Xiyang City who have ID cards can buy a catty of green salt for five copper coins, which has too many benefits to exploit. As long as a businessman buys it from civilians at a slightly higher price and resells it to other cities, he can make crazy money.

"Give the list to the security department, let Ryan immediately arrest them, and send them all to mining for five years. And those civilians who sold salt privately, they should all be fined, and take them to the security department for a few days to reflect."

Liu Feng threw the documents on the table, and said indifferently, "Register their ID cards, so that the salt shop can only sell them one bag of salt for three months, and the time is three years."

He wants to let those civilians with identity cards know that if you don't cherish the benefits I give you, you can deprive you of them at any time.

"Yes!" Mina immediately remembered that the information was sent from the Security Department to the Security Department.

Liu Feng then looked at another document. The more he looked at it, the more he frowned. After reading it, his brows could pinch a fly to death.

"Three days ago, someone in the city spread rumors about expelling slaves. Have you found out who did it?" A coldness flashed in Liu Feng's eyes.

This rumor is very vicious, it is clearly trying to destroy the harmonious city atmosphere he created, and it is planting a time bomb of estrangement among ordinary people. Maybe when the incident of discrimination against slaves breaks out, Xiyang City will be in chaos.

The personnel structure of Xiyang City is divided into four parts, nobles, merchants, commoners, and slaves.

Among them, the noble is him, and there are a few noble children such as Tori, who are not valued by the family.

There are many merchants, and most of them are foreign merchants. With the support of local merchant Liu Feng, a few got up and set up shop in the big market.

The most complicated thing is the class of civilians. Local civilians only account for about half of the population in Xiyang City, that is, about 5,000 people. The rest are foreigners, divided into orcs and humans, as well as free people converted from slaves. There are about 5,000 people in total.

Free people are some foreign slaves, such as the orc slaves Liu Feng rescued in Beifeng City. They have been pardoned by Liu Feng to get rid of their status as slaves and become free people like civilians.

In terms of slaves, it means the 800 slaves that Liu Feng sent people to rescue from the blade. They will work for Liu Feng for a few years, and they will gradually get rid of their status as slaves.

Now the problem lies with the free people. Some people are targeting the people who have changed from slaves to free people, catching the status of slaves and magnifying them infinitely, in an attempt to stir up the pathetic sense of superiority among ordinary people.

People's fearful words are not a joke. They are an invisible weapon for killing people. When slaves are discriminated against, they will feel resentment. Ordinary civilians will feel superior to others. Sooner or later, there will be conflicts.

"Master, the spread of this rumor is very small, and the time it appeared is very short. It can only target a few people. They are very vigilant." Mina said with a serious face.

"Oh? The spread is very small..." Liu Feng muttered silently, closing his eyes and thinking.

This rumor is purposeful, it doesn't seem to be specifically aimed at him in Xiyang City, it's more like persecuting someone. No, it is aimed at free people. Is there anyone special among that group of free people?

"Wait..." Liu Feng opened his eyes abruptly, the black eyes flickering with a cold light, and said coldly, "They are targeting Diss, and this rumor is directed at Diss."

"Ah?" Mina stared blankly at Liu Feng, her blue eyes narrowed slightly, and said coldly, "Master, do you mean that someone wants to attack Disi?"

"Yes, Tees is also a free citizen." Liu Feng's face was ugly, and he finally understood why Niujiaoniang's eyes were sad during the day.
