Chapter 1869 The years are like a song, the vicissitudes of the world!(1/3)
Yanmu City.
The head of the Jia family smiled and checked into the city lord's mansion.
Seeing that fat body stepping into the city lord's palace, the people of Yanmu City were in despair.
Because it was the same thing when the previous city lord and the Jia family master were in cahoots! Originally they thought that the new city lord would be different, but it seemed that they were all the same.
so.
They are desperate and numb.
In this world... there are too few good people and evil people prevail.
"City Lord, this is a very wise choice, and you will be glad for it in the future."
The head of the Jia family smiled.
Su Xuan gave him a cold look and said: "Since we are cooperating, we must show sincerity.
I want 30% of Yanmu City’s income.
Only 30%."
The head of the Jia family was startled, then laughed loudly: "Okay, just 30%!"
Thirty percent is not a lot, but if you can get an obedient city lord, it will undoubtedly be good.
"In the coming years, I won't care what your Jia family does.
I will try my best to meet your Jia family's requests.
However, I also need some power.
As you said, if you don't do it for yourself, heaven and earth will destroy you.
Since it is cooperation, then cooperate well.
Of course, I am the master of Yanmu City publicly, but secretly it is still your Jia family."
Su Xuandao.
"It seems that the city lord's ambition is not small."
Master Jia narrowed his eyes.
"Just trying to survive."
Su Xuan said lightly: "Besides, you have already won over my family, what else can I do?"
The head of the Jia family was silent for a long time and then said with a smile: "Okay, I will do as you say."
"Also, I came here with an imperial edict. I want to connect with the Water Country and dig a canal to alleviate the Fire Country's crisis."
Su Xuandao.
"This is a good thing, but water channels must be strictly controlled."
"certainly."
Su Xuan nodded, his eyes slightly lowered.
...In the following time, Yanmu City remains the same.
Su Xuan, on the other hand, was focused on the ditch.
He brought in a large number of tools and forcibly gathered a large number of people.
The people of Yanmu City were really desperate now.
The new city lord seems to be more evil than the previous city lords! On this day.
Su Xuan was walking to the place where the canal was to be dug.
"Bad guy!"
Some children threw stones, which caused blood on Su Xuan's forehead.
The guard next to him was furious and drew his sword to catch the child.
Su Xuan was stunned for a moment, wiped away the blood on his forehead, but also grabbed the guard: "If a son does not teach his father a lesson, he will arrest his father to dig ditches."
The guard was stunned for a moment, and then thought to himself that the new city lord looked polite, but he was not a good person either.
It didn't take long.
The guard caught a man in the midst of crying.
"Dog officer!"
The man is also tough and curses loudly when he opens his mouth.
"If you don't leave, I will kill your child.
My blood will not be shed in vain."
Su Xuan said lightly.
The man paused, suddenly discouraged, his eyes despairing.
...Jia family.
The head of the Jia family burst out laughing after listening to his servant's report.
"Our city lord quickly adapted to his role.
I think within a few years, his notoriety will surpass mine."
The head of the Jia family was very happy.
The city lord cannot be killed.
Rather than killing one by one and eventually provoking the leader of the Fire Nation to take action, it would be better to support an obedient one.
In the eyes of the Jia family leader, Su Xuan, who does not have much ambition and is indecisive, is obviously suitable.
"Continue to monitor."
The head of the Jia family ordered.
...the years that followed.
Su Xuan crazily amassed money, dug channels, and squeezed the people.
In less than a year, Su Xuan became a villain as bad as the head of the Jia family and was notorious.
late at night.
In Su Xuan's study.
Beside the oil lamp, Su Xuan buried his head in planning the excavation of the ditch.
Just one year.
Su Xuan's temples have turned white.
This year, no one knows how much Su Xuan slept in a day.
He was frantically squeezing the people of Yanmu City, and also squeezing himself, in order to dig the ditch as soon as possible.
"City Lord, don't be so desperate."
Su Xuan's wife felt distressed.
"The Fire Nation is getting weaker and weaker. The sooner we dig the ditch, the sooner we can reap benefits.
When I earn enough, I will resign as the city lord."
Su Xuandao.
"Really?"
Lady Su Xuan said happily.
"nature."
Su Xuan replied coldly: "Don't disturb me."
"OK."
She left happily.
Su Xuan looked at it coldly and couldn't help but cough.
He covered his mouth and felt a fishy smell... finally.
After four years.
The ditch was dug.
Many people's eyes felt inexplicably sour when they looked at the river rushing from the Water Kingdom.
This is the hope they work day and night to dig out.
But... could this be their hope?
To be continued...
