Mage with knife
Chapter 192 Occupy the territory first, then the western coast...
In fact, such internal disputes are the most difficult to resolve. You can't kill the other party, right? Once a life is lost, the nature of the dispute will change.
An elder Ke Qing and two high-level cultivators simply occupied the largest magic gold mine in Persian City. In this case, the largest source of funds for the City Lord's Palace of Persia City was gone. How could James maintain the operation of Persia City? The City Lord's Palace.
Almost in a state of paralysis.
The city of Persia not only went to Trust City where Dick was located to ask for help, but also sent envoys to two or three nearby big cities to ask for help. Again, such internal disputes are difficult to deal with. No city owner is stupid, and no one is willing to take it easy.
Participated.
Things did not continue to be so deadlocked. James could only find some city lords from Arctic Island to ask for help, and they actually came to support.
As time goes by, the scale of the dispute is getting bigger and bigger. The three senior cultivators from Persia City are also unambiguous. After all, they are cultivators on the coast of the North Ice Sea. They have a wide range of friends and have found a group.
My friends came to help me. While maintaining my strong fighting power, I also relied on the strength of numbers.
It has become a protracted war, and no one can do anything to anyone. After all, in such internal disputes, no assassins can be killed, so the fight is somewhat constrained.
Dick spent a month in seclusion and gained a lot. Fighting against a saint-level powerhouse was the best way to understand himself.
"Is there still a fight in the Persian city?" Dick looked gloating.
"Isn't that good? The more we fight, the more people will participate." Old Peter looked helpless.
"There are so many high-level practitioners fighting among themselves, and Holy Island still hasn't come forward?" Dick asked.
"I guess it will be soon?" Peter knew that the Holy Island's tolerance period for such internal disputes was also limited.
"Old Peter! There is still a lot of room for expansion on the western coast of Bay City?"
"What do you mean? You... want to establish the Fifteenth Outer City?" Old Peter knew Dick well.
"Why not? It's such a waste to have so much open space along the coast lying idle."
"It makes sense. Joseph has already gone to open the Fourteenth Outer City. The remaining two guys are also jealous, haha!" Old Peter said with a smile, "Let Rafael go to the west to build the Fifteenth Outer City first.
.”
"Sure! Look at the arrangements and be quick. I can see that the open space belongs to whoever occupies it. There is no dividing line at all. The presence of an elder, guest minister, is enough."
"Dick, if Rafael goes and only Roddick is left, he will probably be depressed, haha!"
"Old Peter, the open space from the west of Bay City to Persia City is more than four thousand miles, right?"
"I did it! Dick, it turns out you want to build two outer cities."
"What's wrong? It's a crime to waste such a master by leaving the elder Ke Qing idle."
"Okay, you are a big talker, you have the final say, I will arrange it right away. Those two guys, if they heard that they could be the lords of the outer city, they would love it." Old Peter is very easy to arrange such good things.
.
Moreover, with just two additional coastal cities, there will be many more opportunities for employment for his grandchildren. Old Peter is also satisfied.
At this time, Old Peter wished that the neighboring city of Persia to the west would continue to cause chaos. Once the city of Persia had had enough trouble, it was estimated that the fifteen and sixteenth outer cities of Trust City would have roughly taken shape. The occupied territory could still be used.
What about spitting it out?
Or, a battle for the border! Trust City has Dick and Luo Xue, two tough masters, but Persia City is stupid. Do you really think that your city leader is awesome because he comes from the Arctic? Dick and Luo Xue have really gained a reputation.
Top players.
With such a powerful city lord as his backing, Old Peter felt very at ease.
With the development of Trust City, not only Charlie's staff are familiar with the construction of villages and households, including Old Peter, Dong Kui, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Mahan, etc., they have a group of capable staff. He wants to expand along the coast.
Everyone is very familiar with the business of establishing an outer city, and there is no shortage of such talents.
The more such jobs there are, the more management talents will gradually mature.
Trust City has begun the construction of the Fourteenth Outer City, the Fifteenth Outer City, and the Sixteenth Outer City. Since the Snow people in the outer jungle tribe have a large population, Dick is not worried anymore and will try his best to develop and grow. It is better than them.
Isn't it better to stay in the outer jungle and suffer from hunger?
An interesting thing happened. In the Persian city, which was in civil strife, the outer city along the coast originally housed many Snow people from the outlying tribes. However, the civil strife in the Persian city became more and more intense, and the city lord James, who lacked funds, could not follow the plan.
The largest magic gold mine obtained funds, so it increased its exploitation of the Snow people at the bottom.
Many Snow people who were placed in the coastal outer city of Persian City began to run in the direction of Tuolas City in groups. The Sixteenth Outer City of Tuolas City was far away from Tuolas City, but it was far away from the No. 4 City of Persia City.
It's not very far.
After receiving the news about the expansion of the Sixteenth Outer City of Trust City, the Snow villagers in City No. 4 of Persian City began to run to the Sixteenth Outer City of Trust City.
As for that? Of course that's all. We have said that the Snow city lords, including those in outer cities, have great autonomy. They can use up to 50% of the taxes of their own city for their own use.
James has no funds, so he will try his best to exploit the relatively wealthy coastal outer cities. The city owners of the coastal outer cities don't want to suffer losses, so what should they do? Then they should increase their exploitation of the village farmers in their own outer cities.
The harvests of the growers are also limited. They have been squeezed too hard and the villagers are still so poor. Of course they are not happy. It is also true that Trust City is too famous. At least the Snow people in the nearby big city know that they can live a good life in Trust City.
Good days. If that's the case, then just run away and flee to Trust City. Do you need farmers to build the Sixteenth Outer City over there?
Gradually, the news spread from City No. 4 to City No. 3 and City No. 2 of Persia City, and more and more villagers fled. If the villagers ran away, couldn't the city lord force them to stay?
It's really not possible. In theory, this is against the rules. It is not mandatory for the Snow people from the peripheral tribes to work in your city. They are free and not your serfs.
In the world of the Snow people, no one dares to treat the Snow people as serfs. This is a matter of principle. No matter how awesome the city lord is, he will not dare to touch this red line.
In less than half a month, the newly prepared Sixteenth Outer City, Fifteenth Outer City, farmers and villages have roughly taken shape. Come on! Of course, not all of them are refugees who fled from the Persian city, there are many
They were also farmers from two outer cities who took the initiative to recruit farmers from the outer jungle tribes.
Dick was very suspicious of the news that in order to build the Sixteenth Outer City and the Fifteenth Outer City as soon as possible, someone on his side deliberately went to Persia City for a walk. Otherwise, how could the farmers in the villages of Persia City get the information so far away?
?
Okay! Dick doesn’t like the city of Persia when he looks around, so just pretend he doesn’t know.
Having said that, when we get to Trust City, don’t farmers have to pay such heavy taxes?
That is impossible. Dick clearly stipulates that the ratio of agricultural taxes to fishery taxes is only 20%. In other words, 20% of what your farmers and fishermen harvest is taxes. This is a dead rule. Who dares to increase taxes?
