Counting starts from the day when General Mad Cow arrived in Xiannancheng.
Several days have passed.
In just these few days, the lives of the people have already been miserable.
What kind of job, what kind of 007, what kind of tourist business, all gone! Under Zhao Lei's rule, 80% of the wealth that was finally saved was confiscated in one fell swoop.
And this is the result that Chen Jinlan secretly left for everyone. Otherwise, with General Mad Cow's urine, he would not leave any wealth to the people at all.
In his eyes, mortals have changed from food to labor.
He only needs mortals to create wealth for him. As for enjoying happiness or something, that is impossible.
This resulted in most people being forcibly dragged into hard labor.
It's exactly like his demon tribe's method of managing little demons.
At this moment, in front of a warehouse.
Chen Jinlan directed the people to carry food, gold, silver and jewelry into the warehouse one after another, or one bag after another.
At this time, a middle-aged and elderly man wearing silk and satin with a bloated figure, who looked like he was in his fifties or sixties, came to Chen Jinlan with a bitter look on his face: "Master Chen, these are the wealth accumulated by this old man for half a lifetime, how can you Can you just take it away as soon as you say it’s taken away?”
That's right, all the wealth being moved into the warehouse now was moved from this middle-aged and elderly man's home.
After working hard for a lifetime and accumulating over several generations, I have achieved today's worth and status.
Now it's all gone overnight.
No one can bear it.
This is no different from killing them.
Before, they thought that having their land confiscated by Zhao Lei was already going too far.
Unexpectedly, the demon master who came this time would kill them. How could they accept this?
Chen Jinlan also looked at the middle-aged and elderly man with helplessness and pity: "Commander Lin, it's not that I don't want to help you, but this new demon general is really difficult to negotiate. If you still want to save your life, I advise you to go ahead. Just be open-minded. After King Tiger comes out of seclusion, I'll see if I can return these wealth to you."
The middle-aged and elderly men were almost crying.
But he had no choice but to nod his head sadly.
At this moment, General Mad Cow happened to come to the scene for inspection.
Seeing this middle-aged and elderly man dressed so luxuriously and doing nothing, he got angry on the spot and asked, "What are you doing?!"
General Mad Cow tugged at the clothes on the middle-aged and elderly man: "You are better dressed than me, but you haven't done anything. Why are you standing here?!"
The middle-aged and elderly man was so frightened by General Mad Cow's two-meter height and strange appearance that he almost had a heart attack.
Covering her heart, breathing rapidly, she was speechless: "I...I...I..."
Seeing that the situation was not good, Chen Jinlan quickly stopped in the middle of a man and a demon and interrupted: "General, General! Lin Yuanwai specializes in collecting gold and silver jewelry from outsiders for us. He is different from ordinary people! Look, these gold and silver coins are here today. All the silver, jewelry and food were delivered by the forest members!"
General Mad Cow turned to look at the boxes of gold, silver, jewelry and food, and his expression softened a little: "I see, then continue to work hard! You must send gold, silver and jewelry to this general on time. Do you know? Hahahahaha!"
General Mad Cow turned and walked away.
Continue patrolling.
Whenever I see something that doesn’t please my eyes, I would loudly ask, “Who are you?! What are you doing here?!”
As long as the answer did not satisfy him, a severe beating was inevitable.
After General Mad Cow left, Bai Lu happened to come here.
Seeing the arrival of the white deer, the people all rushed forward, including Chen Jinlan, as if seeing a life-saving straw.
"Deer King, Deer King, what should we do now? If we continue to be fucked like this by that general, our life will really be unbearable."
"Deer King, Deer King, when will Tiger King come out of seclusion? After Tiger King comes out of seclusion, will he be able to drive away this new general? If Tiger King doesn't come out of seclusion, how will we live our lives?"
Even Chen Jinlan came to Bailu with a solemn look: "Deer King, it's not that we want to rush you. It's that the new general is too arrogant. After King Tiger comes out of seclusion, can he solve the current problem? "
Bai Lu glanced at the chattering mortals and immediately raised his hands: "Stop—! You all, please be quiet!"
After all the mortals calmed down, he continued: "The only thing we can do is to believe in Big Brother and wait for Big Brother. Do you really think that you can escape under the nose of the mad cow general? I tell you , that’s impossible. You’d better pray that you can survive until your eldest brother comes out of confinement, otherwise, I have no other way.”
After saying that, the white deer crossed them and left.
Watching the white deer leave.
The common people bowed their heads and sighed.
Keep going back to work.
In this way, in just a few days, General Mad Bull put the people of Xiannancheng into dire straits.
When Xian Nancheng's management model satisfied him, he began to harm the other three cities.
Even with Chen Jinlan's advance tip, Li Ergou, Li Jincheng, and Hu Dingyong were fully prepared in advance, but when this servile life came, the people still complained endlessly.
On this day, there is no hope at all.
Before Zhao Lei appeared, ordinary people might still think that this kind of life was quite good. At least they didn't have to be squeezed by the government and landlords, and they could still have enough to eat, right?
But after experiencing the happy life under Zhao Lei's rule, they knew how desperate they were.
And these days of despair have not only affected the four surrounding cities of Chechi.
Even the King's City of Chechi was severely affected...
…
Chechi King City.
The King's City of Chechi is built on a dagger-shaped cliff, which is very strange.
There are more than 40,000 people in the entire royal city.
This is almost the total number of people in the four cities.
There are enough fields around the royal city.
It is basically self-sufficient without relying on external forces.
Therefore, even though Zhao Lei had occupied Xuanyang City, Xiannan City, Qianyin City, and Qingbei City before, the attitude of the Wangcheng side was to tolerate it as much as they could.
First, they did not have the strength to resist.
Secondly, they are not yet at the point of life and death.
But things have changed since General Mad Cow appeared. General Mad Cow not only ordered people to block the official road and prevent the caravan from going to the royal city to trade.
He even sent little demons to patrol the farmland around the royal city.
It seems that he has regarded the farmland around the royal city as his private property.
Without the arrival of new seasonings, Wangcheng's attitude may be tolerable. After all, your own life is more important than delicious food.
But what if even the farmland was taken away.
No matter whether it was the common people in the royal city or the dignitaries, they couldn't calm down at all.
No income from food.
This means that no matter how rich they are, there will always be a day when they run out of food and ammunition.
This is the danger of extinction!
It's no wonder they don't pay attention.
As a result, the atmosphere in the entire royal city began to become tense and urgent.
At this moment, in the palace.
The king of Chechi was sitting on his dragon chair.
A group of courtiers stood on both sides of the hall.
Everyone looked very anxious.
They were chattering, not knowing what they were discussing.
At this moment, a man dressed as a eunuch ran in from outside the palace with small steps: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"
Don't wait for the eunuch to bow.
The king of Chechi Kingdom said anxiously: "No courtesy! Hurry, tell me quickly! How is the situation of the fields around the royal city?"
The eunuch immediately knelt on his knees and said solemnly: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, the fields around the royal city are now patrolled by monsters. The soldiers don't dare to go forward to investigate..."
Wow--!
All the courtiers in the hall were in an uproar.
It's over, it's over, a monster is coming.
What should they do now?
These courtiers, if you ask them to bully and bully the common people, they can come up with 10,000 ways to squeeze or exploit the common people.
But when they really wanted to do something practical, each one of them was more panicked than anyone else.
Of course, the entire Chechi Kingdom's officials are now living on their own, so it's no wonder they are there.
After all, there is only so much space in Chechi Country.
It is also surrounded and threatened by other countries all year round.
How do you want them to develop?
Besides acting as a wall between the major powers, what else can they do? There are only so many people in the country. Do we really expect them to counterattack a big country?
Therefore, their way of serving as officials has always been to do two things.
First, ensure that the power and official position of your family can be passed down from generation to generation.
Second, how to exploit the people so that they can not rebel but still maintain their own prosperous life.
Facts have proved that they did all this well before Zhao Lei showed up.
As long as he could keep his throne and keep his glory and wealth, even the king of Chechi would be happy and at ease.
But now?
Now that something has really happened, this group of courtiers, including the King of Chechi, who are accustomed to the corpse position, are really at their wits end.
The king of Chechi stood up and was anxiously circling: "What should we do now? What should we do now?"
Suddenly he had a flash of inspiration and asked the eunuch who was kneeling on the ground: "By the way! Where is the master? What did the master say? Is there any news?"
The master King Chechi called was the monk who "successfully prayed for rain" for Chechi, and then he ordered the monk to build Zhiyuan Temple for him.
But what he didn't know was that the monk was not a master at all.
He's just a scoundrel who wants to cheat people out of food and drink.
The eunuch said tremblingly: "The great... master said that he has prayed for the Buddha's blessing for Che Chi. I believe that the Buddha will definitely send someone to save us in the near future."
After hearing this, King Chechi was so angry that he stamped his feet: "Damn it! It was in vain that I mobilized people and recruited people from all over the country to build Zhiyuan Temple for him, but it turned out to be useless! What a waste! Come on! Pull those monks out. Chop it!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a courtier said anxiously: "Your Majesty, you must not do this, Your Majesty!"
The King of Chechi Kingdom cursed angrily: "Why not?! The monsters have surrounded the outside of the royal city. They can't invite gods to save them. They are just a bunch of liars! I will chop them up, so why not!"
The courtier continued to explain: "Your Majesty, I heard that those monsters highly praised Buddhism and Taoism. Your Majesty killed those monks. If the monsters were angered, I'm afraid..."
King Chechi was so frightened that he turned pale on the spot, took two steps back unsteadily, and then fell down on the dragon throne. After reacting, he gritted his teeth and said, "This won't work, and that won't work! Let me tell you, what else can I do?"
The courtiers in the hall looked at me one by one, and I looked at you.
Then, they nodded as if they were unanimous, and one of the courtiers stood up and said, "Your Majesty, those monsters control the people, do they want the people to help them cultivate the land and create more wealth. And now the whole Chechi is filled with resentment among the people. , just because the monster’s name is not justified.”
At this time, another minister stood up and raised his hands and said: "Yes, Your Majesty. If Your Majesty is willing to take the initiative to abdicate the throne and let the monsters have their rights, maybe those monsters will allow Your Majesty to continue to enjoy it for the sake of Your Majesty's understanding. Glory!"
"That's right! After the master asks the gods and Buddhas in the sky to get rid of the monsters for us, the king can ascend the throne again! This is an expedient strategy!"
Say so.
But these courtiers just wanted to push the cart and the king of Chi State could carry it in front.
I hope that the monster can spare these meritorious ministers at the same time because the king of Chechi is so sensible.
"I beg your Majesty to abdicate the throne and make way for someone worthy of your honour!"
"I beg your Majesty to abdicate the throne and make way for someone worthy of your honour!"
"I beg your Majesty to abdicate the throne and make way for someone worthy of your honour!"
Seeing that these courtiers all persuaded themselves to abdicate in favor of others for their own benefit. The king of Chechi was so angry that he could not speak: "You... you...!!"
But other than that, he didn't know how to save his life.
After all, the official roads and farmland around the royal city have been taken over by the other party.
The collapse of the royal city is just a matter of time.
And if the monster really wants to take his throne, it will only be a matter of backhand.
In other words, although those ministers were not well-intentioned, if he, the king of Chechi, wanted to live, or if he wanted to seek some benefits, it was indeed the only thing he could do to please the other party by voluntarily abdicating the throne and making way for the wise.
Unable to make up his mind for the time being, he simply retreated from the court for the time being.
A few days later, he sent for the black sheep.
Because compared to General Mad Cow, the reputation of Zhao Lei's group of monsters is obviously much better, and they are much easier to get along with. So before making a decision, he hoped to find the other party and test his tone first.
In the main hall.
Everyone seemed more nervous than the last court meeting, because everyone knew that the king specially invited monsters to discuss today.
Not long after, the black sheep, nearly three meters tall, walked in from outside the hall.
Even though everyone was afraid, they still suppressed the fear in their hearts and greeted him with a smile: "Hello, Lord Demon!"
"Hello, sir!"
"Hello, Demon Lord!"
The king of Chechi Kingdom also did not dare to neglect. He stood up from the dragon throne and greeted him in the same way: "Hahahaha, the demon master is here. I am not far away to greet him!"
Black Sheep seems to have read through their thoughts and doesn't talk nonsense to them.
After all, the rumors secretly spread by these monsters cannot be discovered by General Mad Cow.
After King Chechi and a group of courtiers expressed their proposal, Black Sheep quickly replied: "Your idea is very wise. I won't hide it from you. Even if you don't give up the royal city, the general is very wise." He will send troops to capture the royal city soon. No one can guarantee how he will deal with you.
The only thing you can do is to pray that my eldest brother Zhao Hu can be released from detention as soon as possible and provide you with protection. After all, I believe you have heard of my eldest brother’s reputation. No matter what, the method will definitely not be more cruel than that of the new general. Having said that, it is up to you to decide what to do. "
After saying that, Black Sheep turned around and left very proudly.
A group of people with ugly faces were left behind.
King Chechi hesitated again and again, but finally gritted his teeth and said, "Come here, send someone to invite the demon general to come to the royal city!"
In this way, General Mad Bull easily captured Xuanyang City, Xiannan City, Qianyin City, Qingbei City, including Wang City, and the entire Chechi Kingdom.
However, the comfortable days have only passed for a few months, and the problem has arisen again...
