The territory is not too big, only the surrounding area of Axel occupies only one-thirtieth of the central land.But in this land, Wu Yang is the absolute boss, no matter who he is, he has to respect him as "Master".
however……
Power and responsibility always go hand in hand.
Now that he is the boss of Axel, he must not be ignorant of his own industry.The most basic ones are the size of the population, how high the taxation is, what are the main economic industries, and whether the people have enough to eat—it is not necessary for Wu Yang to do everything himself, but he must have an idea of these things.
Later, when the king of the central government asked, Wu Yang didn't know what to ask, and he might suffer disaster!
In the early morning of the next day, Wu Yang came to visit the gate of the old city lord's house with gifts and Ibel.The old city lord got the news early, he stood at the door, and greeted Wu Yang with a smile, "The lord condescends to come here, it really makes the humble house shine!"
Wu Yang said with a smile: "Why is the old city lord so alienated? If you hadn't used tricks to force me to become a brave man, how would I, Wu Yang, be where I am today? Speaking of which, you are still my mentor!"
"Oh heh heh—"
"a ha ha ha--"
The host and guest had a good time, enjoying themselves.
Now that the old city lord forced Wu Yang to become a brave man, Wu Yang hadn't taken it to heart.In the dead of night, Wu Yang couldn't help but smile when he occasionally recalled his resentful state of mind at that time.
But to say thank you...
Certainly not.
The old city lord was also doing business, because he had to force him because of the order of the king of the central government.
After entering the house, Wu Yang put on an attitude of humbly asking for advice, and asked Axel's economic subjects and the living standards of the people one after another.
After all, the old city lord has grasped the real power for many years, so he is very familiar with answering these questions.
"Our Axel is a frontier place, and the conditions for economic development are relatively unfavorable. Among the eight cities in the Sumerian Basin, Axel has always been the last one..."
"..."
Wu Yang was speechless.
The Sumer Valley is one of the eight regions in the Central Land.It is located in the far west of the Central Lands, bordering the West Country.Wu Yang said: "Axel is a border land, but the other seven cities are not border lands? Why are the economic conditions of the other seven cities better than ours in Axel?"
"This is also impossible..."
The old city lord looked a little uncomfortable.
"We in Axel have a name called 'A City of Newcomer Adventurers'. For a long time, our economic industry has always been an industry related to adventurers. But in recent decades, the genetic modification network has become more mature, and adventurers The level of Axel continues to increase, so the adventure area around Axel decreases year after year."
"When the old man first took office, ten adventurers went out to take risks, and three of them came back alive. They were considered to be highly skilled. At that time, Axel's body collectors and funeral businesses had a huge scale! See that Axel Sale Cemetery? That was venture capital in those days."
"Ten years have passed in a flash, and in the current situation, only one of the ten adventurers died when they went out, and the remaining nine were all sighing and frowning. If this was in the past, it would be something worth celebrating with wine!"
"..."
Wu Yang was speechless again.
He got it.
The adventurer industry is similar to the oil industry, they are all digging and consuming hard-to-regenerate resources for a living.The level of adventurers increased, and the efficiency of development exceeded the efficiency of resource regeneration. After reaching a certain limit, the economic development of Axel, the "City of Adventurers", also stagnated.
"The old man has caught up with a good time, but he has also seen Axel's decline step by step. It is a pity that time is not forgiving. In this situation, the old man is determined to save, but he is powerless. I can only look forward to you and Axel, Mr. Wu Yang. Miss Funny, restore Axel's former glory!"
The old city lord sighed deeply!
Wu Yang glanced at him, thinking, you old boy, pat your ass and leave, what can I do?What is the restoration of glory? You can call me Wu Yang to fight, and let me restore economic development...
Are you awake?
Wu Yang picked up the teacup and took a sip slowly.The old castellan glanced at him, always feeling that he had something to say.
"Old city lord, I see that your complexion is rosy and your voice is full of spirit. How can you be half-old? You said 'intentionally powerless', maybe it's too early?"
"..."
The old city lord remained silent.
He looked at Wu Yang cautiously!
"Master Wu Yang was joking, the old man is old and dim-sighted, and he is already an old man."
"Let me tell you the truth. I hope that the old city lord can act as my assistant to someone like Wu. I have never been in politics. If you want me to be a lord all of a sudden, I will definitely not be able to be a good one. If there is an old city lord Advising me on the sidelines must be of great benefit to me!"
Wu Yang, straight to the point!
"Huh? Don't do it! I finally retired, and you still want me to go to work now? No! No! I plant flowers and raise birds every day, so don't live too comfortably!"
The old city lord is straight to the point!
"With Axel's current situation, how can we develop the economy? In the days to come, it will definitely be worse every day, and every year is worse than every year! Axel's top leader, who will be the one who will be unlucky! I Guarantee that he has worked hard for 20 years, but he will not get any glorious results!"
"Snapped--"
Wu Yang stepped forward suddenly and patted the old city lord on the shoulder with one hand.
"I, Wu, understand the old city lord's mentality very well. Because at the time I knew that I was going to be a brave man...I had the same mentality as you."
Wu Yang looked at the old city lord coldly with a dark face!
"At that time, I... was forced to become a brave man due to the authority of others. I don't know if you are also forced to become my assistant due to the authority of others?"
The old city lord didn't pat Wu Yang's palm away either. He leisurely picked up the teacup on the table and said slowly, "Master Wu Yang, I'm over 60 this year, and I've already lived enough. I'm afraid your threats are against me. invalid."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Wu Yang laughed out loud!
"So--your 40-year-old son who is working in the tax bureau, and your 17-year-old grandson who is studying in the Non-commissioned Officer Academy, are you not afraid of my threats?"
"clang--!"
The old city lord's hands trembled, and the teacup in his hand fell to pieces!
"Wow……"
Ibel, who was sitting on the side, stared at Wu Yang with his eyes wide open.
Author's message:
PS: uh——
#432 The origins are clean!
The old city lord looked at Wu Yang, but Wu Yang didn't avoid his gaze, but also returned his gaze.
this kid...
Seriously.
The servant came forward to sweep away the fragments of the teacup and brought a new bowl of tea.During this period, the white-haired, wrinkled old city lord and Wu Yang, who was five and six, made eye contact with each other through eye contact!
"Master Wu Yang, the old man actually has a heart attack."
"Death on the desk... a decent burial, death at home... whipping the corpse."
"..."
No flaws!
Impeccable!
This man named Wu Yang... is a man with a heart of stone!
The old city lord knew that he could not escape this catastrophe, so he closed his eyes and said, "My lord, this old man is 60 years old."
Wu Yang said with a smile: "Old man, his ambition is for thousands of miles—"
"Old man, no ambition."
"... grow old and strong."
"Old man, not strong."
The old city owner spoke like an old salted fish.
Wu Yang sneered, "You don't have to push back and forth, think about your son! Think about your grandson! Your Excellency is also a person in the system, and the ways of the system are always clear, right? Yes, the central government has supervision and inspection Mechanism, but I am the lord of this place, I want to embarrass someone, is it difficult?"
"..."
The old city lord, his face is pale!
Wu Yang kicked Ibel, and Ibel suddenly turned his head to look at Wu Yang, "It hurts! Why did you kick me!"
"..."
I'm asking you to sing red face!Fool!
The old city lord slumped on the chair, and said weakly: "Ibel...Master Wu Yang asked you to say a few good words for him and me, so that the old man can step down."
Ibel looked at Wu Yang again, "...Really?"
"Fake! Idiot!"
"Mummum—"
Wu Yang yelled unbearably, and Ibel made a vague sound, trying to get away with it.
"Old city lord, it's not that I, Wu, are too narrow-minded. It's because you have helped me a lot. I don't want you to dedicate your life, I just want you to help me bring new people—two years at most, half a year at least , after you hand over the basic situation to the person I arranged for you, your task will be completed."
Wu Yang had no choice but to speak by himself.
"I can't guarantee anything else, but how can I, Wu Yang, not take care of your son and your grandson?"
"Come on, let's go, let's go! Just treat me as repaying repayment!" The old city lord did a good job again, showing a smile, "My lord, do you dare to ask when the old man will take office?"
"As you wish, Mr. Wu!" Wu Yang appropriately changed the title, "Of course, it's best not to exceed a week."
……
……
The old city lord's name is Brudo, his ancestors were nobles, and he was almost defeated when he was young.Being able to become the city lord of Axel is mostly because he is really capable.
After accepting the position, Brudo looked up at Wu Yang, "Lord Wu Yang, most of the titles of 'lords' in our central government are more famous than actual. The bureaucratic selection mechanism and promotion mechanism have been perfected. Among the remaining eight lords, Except for a few, the rest are just shopkeepers and don't care about their own affairs."
Wu Yang crossed his legs and said, "If you are in his position, you will seek his own government, and you will eat what you want and you will guard your land. Because of this title of lord, I can now get 500 million Alice's salary every month, and there are still a lot of money during the holidays." Subsidy. The country has given me so many benefits, so I dare not say anything else, I must at least figure out the general situation in my territory, right?"
"I'm afraid it's the new official taking office!"
