Chapter 287 Because the dead resurrection
It was dark, and the smell of blood and madness of the day had been blown away by the wind.
Li Qi sat in the simply cleaned conference hall.
Compared to the hall full of oppression, the conference hall of the Iron Wall Fort is very ordinary, with only a simple solid wood long table with four chairs.
The candle was lit, and the flames pulled Li Qi's figure and swayed on the wall.
Li Qi said intimately: "Even at the peak of Tiegu, there are only four managers at most, and this place has almost never been used."
His deepest memory of the Lord of Iron Valley was seen in a book. More than a decade ago, a Lord of Iron Valley liked to fly and wanted to make a ship that could fly into the sky.
Then, he fell to death and was on the cliff on the wall on the east side of the Iron Wall Fort.
"The lord himself only cares about enjoyment, and it would be strange if the territory could develop."
The nobles' feudal management was layered up and down, and the management scope of the former Iron Wall Castle was only the Iron Wall Castle. For example, the development of the other three villages was left to the nobles who had feudal control for complete control, and he only needed to collect taxes.
This is also the style of most lords. He is probably the only one in the world who controls everyone in the entire territory who eats, drinks, defecates and scatters.
At this moment, there were corpse ghoul Aina and the necromancer Ayamei standing on both sides behind him. The two corpse ghouls were the safest to follow him.
At the door of the meeting hall, the butler Lidun stood straight: "Sir, you are here."
"Let them come in"
Li Qi held the first Iron Wall Castle meeting.
As for the soldiers' celebration of victory, let's put it aside for now.
After Lacey, Kuaibian and the fat manager came in, the housekeeper Lidun closed the door.
A castle is definitely a housekeeper, Li Qi has a deep understanding.
"Sit down" Li Qi pointed to the three chairs in front and said, "Have you had dinner?"
"I've eaten, sir!" The hay nodded quickly.
Then he found that the two noble knights in armor had not spoken yet, so he quickly closed his mouth.
Lacey and Kuaiblade nodded at this time.
"You may not be able to rest well tonight. Too many things are on our shoulders, so you must eat enough."
Everyone, including the Baron, has to be prepared to stay up late.
Li Qi turned his head and looked at Kuaibian: "I need to know the casualties of the siege."
"There are 54 prisoners, 30 people were killed in battle, and 16 people were seriously injured and died. None of us died." Kuaibian said: "But two soldiers were scratched by crossbow guns and had several broken bones, so it would be difficult to get a sword again in the future."
The hay beside him swallowed. He knew that in the 30th death, the new lord in front of him killed at least 25, and the 16 seriously injured probably had something to do with him.
Because when those militants of the Iron Wall Fortress climbed the city walls in shiny armor, they had already surrendered.
"Treat first." Li Qi said: "Go and ask them for their opinions. If they want to return to the Porcupine Collar after they recover, I will ask someone to arrange their leisure errands. It is better to stay in the Iron Wall Fort, where people are in urgent need of development."
On the one hand, I went back to retire and lived a leisurely life, and on the other hand, I became a manager here, which had better development, but it would be much harder.
Kuaibing nodded. The first thing the lord did was to ask about the casualties, which made him feel much better. Li Qi was always the kind lord.
Li Qi added: "Let them rest assured that the subsidies will be distributed to them after the Iron Wall Fort is stable."
"yes!"
"Prisoners are kept in custody first."
In fact, Li Qi also had a headache because his deposit was a bit difficult to support the development of the two territories.
Porcupine collars can complete a simple economic cycle and improve steadily.
Tiegu could see the rags at a glance, which required huge investments. Moreover, this place had become his territory, so he could not really let it go.
Moreover, Tiegu is adjacent to Shuijiandi, and the south is Monkey King and Burning City.
If someone else is a lord, it may be a headache. He is squeezed and has no room for survival, but the water storm is "his own people".
It seems inevitable to draw blood from the porcupine collar to subsidize the Iron Valley.
He will put aside this problem for the time being and focus on solving the current problem.
Li Qi looked at the fatty manager hay: "How is the population investigation?"
"Yes!" The hay sat upright and his belly pressed against the table.
He shrank his stomach and said, "There are 1,012 households in the Iron Wall Fort, with 3,035 residents, including 1,020 men and 2,015 women."
Li Qi looked at the hay in surprise. If this was not the data he picked up casually, it would mean that this person had a strong working ability.
It was able to use half an afternoon to sort out the information and information of more than 3,000 people, and the data was very detailed.
The time limit given by Li Qi before will be submitted to the detailed data statistics before tomorrow afternoon, and he only needs to count the number of people tonight.
Li Qi said: "I'm curious how you completed the demographic in a short period of time."
The hay immediately said, "I asked them to line up and then asked everyone and recorded it."
There are countless statistics, unless this group of people have undergone rigorous training, fully understand cooperation, and everyone can write.
Even if the information is kept in front of you and let the hay be sorted out, it may not be completed in half an afternoon.
"It's not what I did alone," Hay explained: "I found the heads of the Iron Wall Castle and asked them to divide the residents into two groups. Of course, there are your powerful soldiers who help from the side. Those people will automatically find their friends and relatives after they know they will be separated. When they don't know what to happen, they will spontaneously gather together like sheep."
"The next statistics will save a lot of effort." The hay stood up and delivered stacks of paper to Li Qi: "I only recorded one name for each household."
"It's done well" Li Qi glanced casually.
The population is calculated by households, and if it is not related or for reasons, it is regarded as a household alone.
The manager of hay has not seen much ability, but he has a deep understanding of human nature.
When something fearful and unknown happens, people will spontaneously find companions and family members to avoid shouting and disobedience.
Only the owner of each household is named.
The number of people is watery because there may be people who have not found their relatives, or repeated names, but the total number of people should be no problem.
Three thousand people are all laborers.
Li Qi looked at Lacey again.
Lacey Sith began to report on his work progress: "The craftsmen have selected, and there are 53 people."
Li Qi said: "Yes, let them repair their armor first."
"I've arranged for someone to do this," Lacey said.
Nodded, Li Qi looked at Kuaibian: "How is the situation of the prisoner's interrogation?"
"They said they weren't just for allegiance to the Black King," Kuaibian said, "and also be on guard against any outsiders."
Li Qi frowned: "What does it mean? What about the Black King? Didn't the Black King send them to guard the castle?"
"Sir" Fat Manager raised his hand. Seeing the three of them looking at him in unison, he swallowed and said, "I think I know why."
"Ah, I forgot that you are still a local person." Li Qi slapped the table lightly and said suddenly: "Tell me, why?"
The fat manager hay said with difficulty: "The dead are resurrected!"
"It's the dead that resurrected again!"
It seems that the entire Iron Valley is related to the resurrection of the dead, but Li Qi has never seen it along the way. Baron Ross's legion has been very calm, but he has reminded Li Qi that some strange things have happened recently.
“What is the resurrection of the dead?”
"Someone once saw a dead relative appearing," said the fat manager hay.
That is the same undead magic, or the undead technology that you have figured out with me. This is not strange. It is just another "meet" for Li Qi.
He has more experience in dealing with dead bodies.
"You've seen it too?"
"Of course not, sir." Hay shook his head: "Everyone I have seen died and then disappeared."
Li Qi asked, "So the residents of the castle hid in to avoid the resurrection of the dead?"
"Yes, sir!"
It seems that even if it is not for the Duke's potion of immortality, I have to investigate the problem behind it for the sake of territory development.
He ordered: "Quick Blade, don't relax when patrolling at night. Whether the dead are resurrected or the living are seeking death, if you have any problems, just shoot and warn. I want to make sure no one can enter the castle before I allow it."
"yes!"
"Lacey, the repair of the craftsmen's armor and weapons must be started immediately, and there are residents' management... I think they are very obedient to the management, so those residents will not worry about them for now."
There is no working environment in the Iron Wall Fort, even if Li Qi succeeds more than 3,000 people, it will not work.
Moreover, this group of ordinary residents who just want to hide in the castle does not need to spend too much effort to manage it, and as long as you don’t cause trouble, you will ignore it.
