Interstellar: Start as a cleaner

After hearing the intention of the lord's wife, the mayor immediately knelt on the ground.

Others around him quickly knelt on the ground: "Thank you, the kind lord, and thank you, the kind and noble lord's wife."

Ning Xue was a little confused by this incident, because all the people who came to greet her knelt down. The whole street and the small square were filled with people kneeling in darkness, although the people behind them didn't know why they were kneeling. But if the mayor kneels down, others must also kneel down.

Bai Lu gently pulled Ning Xue. To be honest, Bai Lu was a little uncomfortable with this action.

But now I have to be a good housekeeper.

"Get up, this is a gift from the lord." Ning Xue certainly knew that Bart exempted these people from taxes, which meant that they had to pay less money.

Bart's territory only has about tens of thousands of people, and the annual tax revenue is tens of millions, which means that one person has to pay thousands of dollars in taxes.

And there is no industry here, just some fishing industry, so the income of people here is still not high.

Some people ask why artificial fishing is still used in the interstellar era. Is it not possible to use mechanized fishing?

Of course, Bart can buy an automatic fishing boat, but tens of thousands of people will face unemployment.

It is impossible for Bart to buy an automatic fishing boat and support tens of thousands of people at the same time.

Because there is a population limit in the noble territory, that is to say, how many civilians each level of nobles must have. If the population is less than this number, the noble title will be deprived or reduced.

In fact, to a certain extent, this is the protection of civilians. If there is no such restriction, many nobles are unwilling to raise civilians, because in the interstellar era, civilians actually mean a drag.

Of course, you can't raise people for free. As the saying goes, if you really keep raising people, problems will arise.

If you really do this, believe it or not, Bart will end up unhappy in the end, because people are always greedy and lazy. When they get used to getting free things, they will want more free things.

Many aristocratic territories in the Shuilan Empire also reject intelligent equipment, mainly to provide jobs for the civilians in the territories.

Of course, there are also economic accounts, such as the automatic fishing boat that Bart spent hundreds of millions or hundreds of millions to buy, which is equivalent to giving money to other companies.

The subsequent maintenance and technical upgrades of the automatic fishing boats will continue to cost money.

A per capita tax of several thousand yuan is not much, but it amounts to a large expense for the entire family.

"Praise the merciful lord!" The mayor first took the lead in singing praises to Bart.

Other civilians also hurriedly said all kinds of good things.

Then Ning Xue distributed some daily necessities to women and children.

"Praise be to the gracious Lady!"

"Praise the kind and noble lady!" These women and children praised Ning Xue one after another after getting the things.

Ning Xue was a little embarrassed. After all, no one had ever praised herself like this. Some praised herself for being beautiful, some praised herself for being a genius, but no one praised herself for being noble.

Bai Lu looked at the happy Ning Xue and felt relieved. His identity as a housekeeper depended entirely on the mistress of the territory.

To be honest, I still like Bailu like Ning Xue very much. If she were replaced by a scheming hostess, it would be difficult for me to get along with her.

"It's a blessing to have a wife like Ning Xue with Bart's reputation!" Bai Lu sometimes murmured in his heart.

Ning Xue was very happy today because she received a lot of beautiful words and saw the clear eyes and childish words of the children who received the supplies.

I felt very satisfied. Although Ning Xue was a commoner, she was completely different from these commoners.

Because Ning Xue is accurately considered a new aristocratic family.

Ning Xue checked the public facilities in the town again, and then promised to provide living allowances to the children attending the schools in the town, and to issue new school uniforms every year.

"Madam, that's enough!" Seeing that Ning Xue wanted to say more, Bai Lu quickly reminded her in a low voice.

"Don't give too much at one time. Give it again next time." Bai Lu explained in a low voice when he saw Ning Xue's confused eyes.

Ning Xue nodded. She originally wanted to upgrade the hardware of schools and other public facilities, but now it seems she has to wait until next time.

"Madam, as a manager, you must be kind, but you must also have authority. If you give too much at once, it will give the other party the illusion that you are too talkative." On the way back, Bai Lu whispered. Explain to Ning Xue.

"Madam must have encountered a class before when she was studying. If you want to manage it well, you must have certain methods."

"What's more, most of the civilians in the town don't have much education."

Ning Xue is also a smart person. She nodded when she heard this: "Thank you!"

Ning Xue wanted to ask Bai Lu what he did before, but it was hard to ask.

After returning to the manor, Ning Xue wanted to share today's events with Bart, but she didn't expect Bart to go to the laboratory again.

At this time, Yang Bo had returned to March Star and was preparing to take the initiative.

Yang Bo took a careful look at the list of villains. The number one in the Water Blue Empire was Duke Teck. He liked to torture and kill slaves. According to incomplete statistics, he probably killed more than 2,000 people, including women and children. This time he also came to Devin Star. This guy is also a hereditary duke.

Ranked second is the royal steward, but this guy has retired a few days ago and has not come to Devin Star.

Ranked third is a general named Hou Zhongping. This guy has changed four wives. It is said that each wife and her maid died miserably, but there is no evidence.

Yang Bo carefully checked Hou Zhongping and found that he was a new noble, a lieutenant general, and happened to be on Devon Star this time.

"Let's get these two targets first!"

Then Yang Bo found out that there are indeed anti-government armed forces in the Shuilan Empire, and the anti-government armed forces in the Shuilan Empire are very powerful. Last year, more than 30 nobles suffered terrorist attacks from anti-government armed forces.

Among these more than 30 nobles, more than half were attacked by liquid biological bombs, and the rest died in strange ways. Some were killed by anti-government armed forces in their own territories.

Some were poisoned, and some were directly assassinated.

On the alliance side, this anti-government armed force is called the Highland Freedom Armed Forces!

In the Shuilan Empire, this anti-government armed force is called the Highland Terrorist Organization.

This anti-government armed group can be traced back to the era of the mother planet. The Highland Armed Forces were originally a minority group that wanted to seek autonomy. They were eventually suppressed by the Blue Water Empire and finally integrated into the Blue Water Empire. However, this organization has been resisting for so many years.

Of course, this organization has been resisting for so many years, which must be inseparable from foreign forces, and perhaps also from the Blue Water Empire.

"Then use the name of this organization to do things, but first we have to see if these two people are worthy of the name."

"If they are really bad guys, then I have to be ruthless, because these two people must have a large number of accomplices."

Suddenly Yang Bo remembered something and kept it in mind.

The next day, after Yang Bo arrived at Devon Star, he first logged into the platform of the Free Mercenary Union. After a search, there was indeed a bounty from Duke Tek, but Yang Bo thought about it and gave up, because the identity of a free mercenary was still very useful to him.

"How can I know the whereabouts of this guy Tek?" Then Yang Bo had a headache again.

"It seems that we have to establish an intelligence organization on Devon Star."

"I just don't know if anyone has a more covert intelligence organization and wants to find a way to control their leaders."

Yang Bo will definitely not let the housekeeper know about this.

"Bart!" Yang Bo was thinking in his heart, Ning Xue actually took the initiative to make tea for him.

"What's the matter?"

"Thank you on behalf of the people in the territory!"

"Are you stupid? You are also the owner of the territory, and I am not the owner of the territory?"

Ning Xue wanted to share yesterday's joy with Bart, but when she heard Bart say this, she angrily said, "You are really a bitch!"

Because Ning Xue didn't know what to say next.

Yang Bo smiled in his heart. He naturally knew what Ning Xue was thinking, but Bart's personality would definitely not say nice things so easily.

"It seems that we have to find the fat man Allen. This guy is well-informed on Devon Star."

"Why is it so difficult to do something by myself? It's just right to take White and the other three to Paradise Island for fun."

Yang Bo used Bart's identity to ask Allen out to have fun at night, but the fat man wanted to go now.

"You finally want to go out and play, don't you know how pent up I've been?"

"Amanda is at odds with you?"

"It's her B-grade body that makes me pent up. After all, she's my legitimate wife, I can't just ignore her like outside!"

"Then go by yourself, you bastard, are you saying bad things about me in front of Amanda again?"

"You still have the nerve to say that, there's no money in the membership card!"

"I'm really impressed by you, you won't take out a penny?"

"You're so rich, come out quickly, Paradise Island is so lively recently, there are a lot of guys outside!"

"What's lively?"

"Let's talk about it when we get here, there are so many!"

Yang Bo took White and the other two, and then met with Allen.

"The boss takes the employees out to have fun, why are you taking me with you this time?" Allen got on the flying car and saw White behind the seat. The three of them greeted each other first, and then complained to Bart.

"If you don't want to go, open the door and get out."

"Drive quickly, stop talking nonsense."

"Which bastard started talking nonsense?"

"Paradise Island has been very lively recently. The Council of Nobles is meeting, and some guys are fighting for favor. Some people who have conflicts go straight to the ring!"

Alan started talking about a lot of gossip, and Yang Bo heard the gossip about Duke Tek.

"The Crimson Federation has brought another batch of mutants. Duke Tek has said that he will buy them all this time."

"And Duke Tek's mortal enemy, Duke Marton, also said that he only has one more dollar than Tek!"

"Both sides almost went to the ring to duel!"

Hearing this, Yang Bo asked, "I heard that this Tek has a bad reputation?"

"This guy is a mental patient. It is said that this guy's superpowers are a bit incredible and can affect his own nerves. No one knows what is going on. Anyway, this guy has a bad reputation. It is said that he paid more than 200 fines last year, which means more than 200 people died."

"This is the real fucking asshole. We usually just fight a little bit." Yang Bo was a little worried when he heard this. What if the skills given by this Tek affect his spirit?

"There is no way, who lets him be the Duke!" Allen shrugged.
