Zhao Xing didn't take the matter of slaying the Blackwind Bandits to heart.
He was already at level six of the Xiantian realm. With the system, his horizons were naturally far ahead.
But he didn't care. To the people, it was a big deal.
When Zhao Xing had nothing to do and brought Wang Long to a private room in the city to drink, he heard people talking outside.
"Hey, have you heard? A few days ago, Lord Zhao of Heyuan County killed more than a thousand Blackwind Bandits and more than twenty Connate realm experts in a single battle at Hekou Village!”
"What is it? There was actually such a thing. More than 20 Connate realm experts were important figures that were rarely seen.”
"Hmph, in front of our County Lord, the Connate Realm is nothing.”
"You guys don't know, right? The County Lord has already reached the Spiritual Bridge Stage! Do you know what the Spirit Bridge Realm is? It can fly in the sky!"
“……”
Hearing the discussions of the commoners, Zhao Xing was speechless.
He glanced at Liu Tong.
"Official Liu, didn't you put up a notice? You wouldn't deliberately lie about the number of people to whitewash me, right?”
"Aiyo, Milord, how would this subordinate dare?”
"This subordinate has long posted the notice, but the mouth is on others. There will always be those who don't see the notice. This subordinate can't help it.”
"It's not right to keep spreading rumors like this.”Zhao Xing said helplessly," People think that I like to boast and boast.”
"Milord, this is the will of the people.”" I can't wait for them to spread the news for a few more days. The further the news spreads, the better. I want everyone to know about your elegance!"”
"You old dog." Xing Zhao scolded him with a smile. He shook his head and continued drinking.
…………
The matter of slaying the Blackwind Bandits became a topic of conversation among the people of Heyuan County and the nearby counties.
What surprised Zhao Xing was that the Blackwind Bandits did not dare to harass Heyuan County for a whole month.
Perhaps they were afraid of being beaten, but they didn't even dare to send people to collect the bones of the four heads.
However, this was normal. The so-called bandits were not loyal and righteous people who would risk their lives.
On the contrary, this kind of person bullied the weak and feared the strong.
When they encountered Zhao Xing, who was even more ruthless than them, they immediately admitted defeat.
……
On this day, Zhao Xing finished his daily cultivation and was observing the militia training on the drill ground.
Suddenly-
"Your popular support in Shanghe County 1000. Prestige 1,000.”
"Your popularity in Baiyang County 1000, Prestige 1000."
" Your popular support in Shanghe County 2000…"
A large number of notifications flooded the screen crazily.
Zhao Xing was slightly stunned.
What was going on?
In the past, it was always tens of tens of points. Why did it suddenly explode today?
"You guys continue training." Zhao Xing instructed Wang Long and Ma Wu and went to the county office.
Zhao Xing called the old dog Liu Tong over and asked,""Official Liu, I want to ask you, what happened in Baiyang County and Shanghe County recently?”
Liu Tong was slightly stunned." Your Excellency is truly a divine foresight. I was just about to report it to you."”
"Hmm? Is there really something?" Zhao Xing raised his eyebrows." Don't waste time. Tell me quickly."”
Supervisor Liu took out a book from a thick stack of books and handed it to Zhao Xing."In the past few days, there have been bandits in Baiyang County and Shanghe County.”
"I heard that the Blackwind Bandits went down the mountain and robbed four merchants in Baiyang County and Shanghe County.”
"They looted a lot of gold, silver, money, food, and some precious pills.”
"In one night, more than five hundred people died in Shanghe County and Baiyang County.”
"Before they left, the Blackwind Bandits even sent someone to secretly set a fire in Baiyang County. I almost burned down the government office."
Xing Zhao opened his mouth wide, not knowing what to say.
A dignified county magistrate almost had his home burned down!
How cowardly.
At this moment, Zhao Xing finally understood the reason for the sudden surge in the hearts of the people.
Without comparison, there would be no harm!
Heyuan County's magistrate was able to kill the Blackwind Bandits until they didn't even dare to collect their corpses.
His own county lord's nest was almost burned down.
How many people's hearts do you think this will win?
"Oh, right, Sir, there's one more thing.”Supervisor Liu took out another booklet and handed it to Zhao Xing.
"Why are you showing me the tax statistics? Do you think I don't trust you?”Xing Zhao asked.
"No, no, Milord has misunderstood." Official Liu said.
"Sir, please look carefully. This is the record submitted by the chief of Fuyuan Village yesterday.”
"There are a total of 542 households in Fuyuan Village.”
"He was just preparing to do a calculation so that he could pay this year's grain tax.”
"What's wrong with that?" Zhao Xing was puzzled.
"Milord, take a closer look. Is there a little more on top?”Official Liu said with a smile.
"Hmm? The 542 households had become 681 households?”
"Where did these extra 100 households come from?”
Zhao Xing asked subconsciously, but he suddenly raised his head and glared at Supervisor Liu.
"Could it be…"
"You're right, Your Excellency. They're people from Baiyang County and Shanghe County. And those who have the ability to move are people with good conditions."”
"They expressed their willingness to pay taxes to Heyuan County. They kept arguing with the village chief of Fuyuan Village every day, asking if they could settle down in Heyuan County.”
"Moreover, he directly left this year's tax money and ran away.”
"The village chief of Fuyuan Village had no other choice, so he came to ask you. He said that if you didn't give him a word, he wouldn't be able to continue being the village chief.”
" This…" Zhao Xing opened his mouth but couldn't say anything for a long time.
