Things are so simple. Once the government colludes with the bandits, both sides can get huge benefits. At the same time, it also depends on whether the government and the bandits' purpose is the same. For example, the bandits in Heihu Mountain have great ambitions. They do not want to dominate the Tielu Fort, a small world. The biggest reason why they want to cooperate with the lord of Tielu Fort is to buy peace and gain opportunities for future development.

However, this also touched the interests of some people. In their opinion, the bandits in Heihu Mountain were just a group of mobs, organized by a group of lowly slaves. Of course, it was intolerable to think that the slaves actually wanted to invade their interests.

Feige smiled and nodded to the acquaintances, but he had too many acquaintances, so many that his neck was sore, and some people were greeting him. Today is the second day of the Tielu Fort Harvest Festival. The streets were full of people, and their faces were filled with joy. There were few things to be happy in Tielu Fort. Everyone took advantage of the Harvest Festival, a unique festival in Yasi Empire. It was rare to have a happy day. After this festival, it was the autumn harvest and was very busy.

"Fege, Feige." A series of crisp sounds came into Feige's ears. Feige frowned, then stretched out, showed a charming smile, turned around, and looked at the woman walking towards him with a smile. This woman is the daughter of the boss of the big iron and blacksmith shop in the west of the city. It is really hard to imagine that a big and thick father could give birth to such an exquisite daughter.

"Lili, haven't you gone to Teacher Mo's place to play?" Feige said with a smile. Recently, Lili has fallen in love with magic and has been pestering Teacher Mo who teaches junior magic all day long, which makes Teacher Mo scared him.

"Who said I'm going to play? I'm going to learn magic?" Lili pouted and said coquettishly. "Fege, where are you going? Can you go with me to get a red scarf?" After Lili said that, she looked at Feige with longing eyes.

"Red scarf? Lili, are you an adult?" Feige said in surprise, but wondered in his heart, is Lili just an adult? It's not so good. In the Yass Empire, sixteen-year-old men and women were considered adults. To celebrate, everyone had to go to the church to pray. The red scarf is a symbol of adulthood, and there are such things in the church.

"I hate it. Lili is already sixteen years old. Of course she is an adult. Are you going with me?" Lili said, holding Feige with her hands and exerting force, but Feige's body did not move at all.

"I'm really sorry. I'm so busy today. Why don't you do this? To celebrate your adulthood, what kind of gift do you want? Let me tell me, I'll buy it for you another day, okay?" Feige said apologetically.

Seeing that Lili couldn't touch Feige, she had to let go of her hand in disappointment. She shook her head in frustration and said, "I don't want anything, you can go and do it." It's really hard to come out to play, but this guy didn't give him any face, so he was so disappointed.

Feige nodded apologetically, patted Lili's head, and turned around and left. This girl is really good. If it weren't for her daughter, she would have really fallen in love with her. Feige accelerated, afraid that Lili would have used some new tricks to entangle him. But he didn't notice that when he turned around, a cold smile appeared on the corner of Lili's mouth.

Haha, I was so tired that my mouth was tilted when I smiled. Feige rubbed his cheeks and walked into the hotel with a confused expression. He was a hotel owner, young and rich, handsome, and very good at dealing with people. Therefore, he is very popular in Tielu City, and everyone knows him.

"The boss is back." The account room standing behind the counter asked with a smile.

Feige nodded and said, "Call Old Sith to my room." After that, he returned to his bedroom.

After a while, Sith knocked on the door and came in. "Sir, look for me." Sith is a dry old man. He seems to be three or four thousand years old, and he is thin all over and looks like he will fall when the wind blows. Sith started to be a slave in his family in the generation of Grandpa Feige. Although he is already a free man, he is loyal to the Feige family and has been here until now.

Feige opened the skin hidden under the clothes casually, shook his hand, poured out many wallets and scattered coins from the skin, and said, "How is the business in the store recently? Nothing happened."

While packing up the miscellaneous pieces poured out of Feige, Sith said, "The store is quite peaceful recently, but three customers came to the store yesterday evening, which was quite eye-catching. One was George of the Magic Guild, and the other two were very jealous. However, some people below reported that one of the two men had a black face who had been to Tielu Castle, but they also came in a hurry and left, and they had to buy a lot of food and other things as soon as they came." Sithon said, "These three people today."

Those who came in from the East City Gate in the morning first went to Jiqing Lianquan, and then George took his black face to the city lord's mansion. He didn't come out until ten minutes later. The other person went to Lao Xi's coffee house and never came out. Strangely, according to Lao Xi's report, this person waited from the morning until the evening, and kept drinking coffee in the middle. He drank four pots, but he had never been to the bathroom. His stomach didn't bulge, as if it was a bottomless pit."

"Oh?" Feige stopped changing clothes, looked at Sith with interest, and signaled him to continue talking.

"The three of them met in Lao Xi's coffee house in the evening and talked in a low voice. Unfortunately, their voices were too low. Lao Xi was afraid of something wrong, so he didn't let the shopkeeper lean over and eavesdrop, so he didn't hear what they were saying. However, the guy saw the black face who entered the city lord's mansion taking out the red silk document to show another white-faced stranger. The three talked a few more words until George and the black face who entered the city lord's mansion were drunk and unconscious. Later, the white face asked the shopkeeper to send the drunken two to our shop, and then left the east gate with joy."

Si gasped and said, "That white-faced is very generous. At first glance, he is the child of a rich family. Also, George and Thomson went to Black Tiger Mountain to suppress bandits the day before yesterday, but at this time he brought two strangers back. Things are very strange." Sis finished speaking and waited quietly for Feige to think. Among the words he said, there is a very important message that George and Blackface brought out from the city lord's mansion. The so-called red silk official document refers to the paper of the official document being a white official document with red silk marks mixed in the middle. This kind of official document is generally used to write a transfer report.

Feige frowned and thought for a while, and asked, "Have you checked the two people living in our store?"

Sith shook his head and said, "I can't check it out. The black-faced person is very alert. Although he is drunk, the guy moves his body as soon as he approaches their room. I'm afraid of alerting the enemy, so I give up."

Feige thought for a while and said, "You send someone to the neighborhood of Heihu Mountain to see the situation, and also go to the City Lord's Mansion to inquire. Oh, by the way, go and give Falutong some news."

Sith nodded. In fact, he was already doing what Feige said, but as a subordinate, he could not deprive the glory of the superior. Sith looked at Feige who was already lying on the bed and frowned and wanted to sleep. She bowed silently and went out quietly.

Today, the Heihu Mountain is very lively, and everyone is busy preparing, singing and laughing everywhere. Xiao Yun Aiming and others stood quietly by the cliff of the mountain, looking at the vast sky and land, and couldn't help but open their minds and be bold and ambitious.

"Mouse, the wind is a bit strong, go and get a cloak." Xiao Yunru said.

Ai Ming shook his head and sighed. Yesterday, Lan Ruo did not have a good time with him because of the cat. Why did he have such a miserable life? Fortunately, he could get comfort from the four sisters, otherwise life would have been like this. But his life was still miserable. Before he could sleep for a while, he was shouted by the big speaker Deng Tao. Alas, it was so hard.

"Brother, it's time to go down the mountain." Chen Zhu, who was forced to be a coolie by the unscrupulous elder brother, ran over and said in a deep voice. He looked unhappy now, especially after seeing the mouse considerately putting a cloak on his elder brother and stuffing a cup of hot water in his hand.

"Is that so fast." Xiao Yun smirked, completely ignoring the bitter face of his second son, stretched his waist and said loudly, "Go away." After that, he took a big step and jumped down from the cliff.

Ai Ming curled his lips. This kid likes to show off. It is obvious that the other end of the cliff is the right way, but he is playing bungee jumping, and he is very bored. Ai Ming thought viciously that it seemed that under the cliff was regarded as a toilet by a boring person a few days ago. Amitabha, I hope Xiao Yun is lucky.

"Wife, walk slowly, be careful of the smooth road." Ai Ming carefully supported Lan Ruo and walked step by step, followed by four sisters who were smiling repeatedly. Poor Ai Ming, he seemed to have lost his elbow today. When he was a cow and his wife was going to be a horse, he would be a wife all day.

Everyone went down the mountain, Ai Ming carefully supported Lan Ruo onto the carriage, and each of them sat on the shaft of the carriage with great enthusiasm and became the coachman. The group of people began to set off, majestic and spectacular. After walking for a while, those who were interested could find a sneaky figure quietly running into the team. After a closer look, it was Xiao Yun and Xiao Dazhaizhu.

There are vast fields at the foot of the mountain, but because the world has not been peaceful in recent years, it has been abandoned. But Ai Ming and others still watched with great interest. This place will be their world in the future.

Yes, after careful arrangement, not long ago, Ai Ming spent a lot of money to buy all the land around Heihu Mountain. So much land accounts for one tenth of the entire Tielu Fort land, so now Ai Ming is a veritable landlord. Speaking of which, the price of these land is very cheap. If it were normal, the price would be as high as three or four times that of now. But now the owners of Tielu Fort are eager to get rid of these lands quickly. They can just meet the sucker of Ai Ming, so how can they not rush to sell it?

There is a reason for the owners to do this, and the fundamental reason is the rebellion of slaves. Now even a remote and desolate small town like Tielu Fort is filled with a terrifying and uneasy atmosphere. What makes the owners even more frightened is that several owners have died or disappeared inexplicably. This kind of thing has no idea what to do for those who are used to peaceful times, so most owners hide in the city, so that their land is abandoned and there is no harvest.

Another thing that bothers them very much, because the Land Law of the Yass Empire stipulates that the collection of land taxes is not calculated based on the percentage of the actual land income in that year, but is calculated based on the proportion of land area equivalent to Yass coins. That is to say, regardless of whether your land has harvest or not, the taxes still have to be paid. In addition, it is a war now, and the country has added additional taxes of one kind or another, which makes the owners complain. This means that their land will not only not bring them money, but on the contrary, it has become a heavy burden.

Because of the above reasons, Ai Ming easily got what he wanted when he came to the door. What's even more outrageous is that these manor owners couldn't wait to send many slaves from Ai Ming. These slaves were similar to time bombs for the manor owners, but they were cheaper Ai Ming, which cost Ai Ming a lot less money.

"Mr. Wen, we are here." The carriage stopped, and the mouse lifted the curtain and said to Ai Ming inside. Ai Ming had already changed from the groom's identity to the master's identity halfway, because Lan Ruo felt sorry for him too much.

"Oh, I know." Ai Ming said, leaving the car, helping Lan Ruo down, then looked up at the house in front. This was a two-story building with a simple shape and no decoration. Everything was mainly concise and practical. Ai Ming nodded and turned around to greet the bandits to move things in quickly.

Ai Ming ignored everything in the following days, and just spent it on traveling with Lan Ruo. He helped the bandits in Heihu Mountain get a chance to breathe, and has been in annoyance until now. Why is he so impulsive? He is not idle and has nowhere to spend it. What if this operation fails? Isn’t that money just wasted? What a pity. Fortunately, the things that Ai Ming is worried about have not happened yet, and everything is continuing in an orderly manner.

The matter was very simple. After Ai Ming took back the Red Silk Document, the people of Heihu Mountain began to act. Of course, it was useless to have the Red Silk Document, because Zhang's transfer document had already confirmed that Thomson would be the garrison of Heihu Mountain, but if Thomson did not appear in the lord's mansion in Tielu Castle to report his duties to the lord, it would be a waste of time. But when Thomson suddenly saw a person who looked exactly the same as him suddenly appeared in front of him, his horror was enough to make him unconscious. Yes, the person who was exactly the same as him was played by Lan Ruo. As a spiritual body, Lan Ruo of course could become what he wanted. Lan Ruo, who dressed as Thomson, went to the lord's mansion to handle the errand, and was afraid that someone would see it, so he didn't dare to stay for too long and returned to Heihu Mountain. The next thing was to organize the manor, recruit slaves and other trivial things.

In fact, Ai Ming didn't have to worry about the matter in the manor, and the four brothers Xiao Yun were enough to deal with it. Of course, the first thing to solve was the hundreds of soldiers captured. After persuasion, more than 200 of the slave soldiers surrendered and became their own people. As for the other soldiers, there was no other way, so they could only be imprisoned and talked about it later. As for Thomson, he served him delicious food and drink, and could only be released when his power expanded.

The power of Heihu Mountain is increasing day by day. With the help of many slaves, Xiao Yun and others began drastic reforms. It has to be admitted that although most slaves have no culture, some of them have indomitable spirit and wisdom tested by time. In just one month, Ai Ming's land has undergone earth-shaking changes. While Xiao Yun and others organized slaves to produce, they selected strong slaves to arm themselves for military training during the slack farming period, and the instructor was Howard. By the way, the manor has now got a formal name, called Heihu Manor, which is really old-fashioned and unpleasant.

Life was very peaceful, but the undercurrent hidden below had already been revealed. First, Deng Tao was troubled by a group of rogues when he came to the city to do business, and then when he asked to see the city lord, he was surprised to find that the city lord was not seeing guests. Also, many strangers suddenly appeared around their manors to spy on them. Such things are shocking. At present, the power of Heihu Mountain is not fully mature. If something goes wrong at this time, it will be an irreparable disaster. Finally, Xiao Yun discussed for a long time and finally made up his mind that Ai Ming should take care of these things, who made him the manor owner?

So Ai Ming was worried and had no clue. There were only a few of his people who were free people, and the rest were all slaves. It would be too difficult to find out the matter with such a few people. Alas, why were Chen Zhu and Deng Tao so useless? It took so long and have not yet entered the upper class of Tielu Castle, but it is no wonder that they, who made the main members of the upper class of Tielu Castle, were mostly the owners of the manor. Although buying and selling land is something you want, these owners bought their

Land is still very uncomfortable from the bottom of my heart. What good face can Chen Zhu and the others give? George should not count on him. Although he is very famous in Tielu Fort, his fame is because he doesn't care about people, pretends to be cool all day long, and wants him to deal with people without making trouble. As for Howard, he should not count on him. He is just a low-level lieutenant company commander, and he is very good at dealing with soldiers. He is hum. However, Howard still contributes to others. He has at least successfully instigated more than a dozen free agents in this month.
