Chapter 865 Xu Yichen's List
In the old continent, because the kingdoms and principalities have been subtly moved for hundreds or thousands of years, most of them are bound to their positions. Except for the extraordinary, there are few migrant populations. Most of the nobles enjoy the wealth accumulated by generations, and try to go further on the road of model or power.
The former requires qualifications and a lot of money to support, while the latter is a pure political game that takes several years or even decades to plan slowly. Through intermarriage, slander and even assassination, one's noble butt will eventually take it a step further.
And the far south is a new and unreclaimed land. If it weren't for the various monsters, ancient civilization relics, and even the threat of chaos in this world, it would have long become a hot land, attracting countless people to pursue wealth.
But humans in this world have suffered enough of the suffering caused by adventure. In order to pursue resources from the alien plane, the ancient Ottoman Empire attracted chaos.
The Principal of Sarion dug up well, but ended up hitting the ancient Roman Empire.
Civilization on the black soil spent the first millennium hard in the shadow of the dead, and the cause was only because they explored the tombs that should not have been explored.
This is not the case with the Tyran Zergs caused by the experiments of the Witch King on the New World. If this kind of thing is leaked, it will cause a new round of panic.
Based on this background, humans in this world have been conservative since the new century and are unwilling to explore new territories because the unknown often represents danger.
The nobles who chose to come to Yuannan to take risks were middle-level people who could not find a way out on the old continent or branches of large families. With the end of the first round of land reclamation, Yuannan did not find any crazy products, and this wave gradually disappeared.
So, what role did the emerging aristocratic class play in the city in the chaotic area of the Far South?
First of all, they shared the risks that the lord had to bear. They paid for themselves to buy the population, armed soldiers, and reclaimed wasteland and established villages. What the lord had to pay was nothing more than a letter of commission.
Ten letters of appointment of the Kaitao Knights As long as one person successfully establishes a settlement, there will be another security barrier around the city where the lord is located, and a potential consumer market.
This model was very popular at the beginning of Far South development, and even now there are lords who are using this to attract people's hearts.
However, with the stability of the order, the disadvantages arise. A large number of nobles with private soldiers crowded into the city for a more comfortable life, and to some extent checked and balanced the rights of the lords.
Especially with the death of the first generation of pioneers, the rights of the second generation of heirs will generally be suppressed by nobles, and Antoine's rise to power is the best example.
"So, those nobles have no other effect except to make trouble?" The words spoken by the Demon Hunter made Elizabeth sweat.
"It's not like that!" Elizabeth was afraid that he would say too late, so the Cyrius would give orders to 'handle' all the nobles in the city: "Most of them are literate, and some have taught themselves the law, and the operation of the city needs to be supported by them."
"Okay, let's write down the names of the people you think are useful, and leave the rest to me to deal with." Xu Yichen nodded and pushed the paper on the desktop to Elizabeth: "They have betrayed you once, so don't be too stressed. You are doing good things, otherwise according to our habits, it will be easier to manage in the future."
Elizabeth's sweat dripped along her delicate face and fainted on the paper: "I can't write this list! You will let the city collapse!"
Xu Yichen pulled the paper back from the girl's hand: "It's okay, I can get a list from others so that you don't have to suffer condemnation from your conscience. Moreover, it is definitely a good thing for this city without them."
After saying that, the Demon Hunter walked out of the room and ticked Elizabeth in his heart. This was a test. If Elizabeth really wrote a list, she would also be on the next list.
Xu Yichen doesn't like pure politicians, and he has the final say in Yuannan in a short period of time.
Outside the room, Knight Alves was guarding the door. Although he knew he was not a match for the Demon Hunter, the retired Lion Knight still followed his oath to the Prince family.
Like Old Bart, he is a model among knights. Xu Yichen has reason to believe that those knights from the old continent who came from the knights are far more reliable than the knight class among the nobles in terms of morality and sense of honor.
"Mr. Alves, I want to know which nobles are really capable in this city. The city needs to quickly restore order. I have to know who to look for." Xu Yichen did not want this loyal knight to bear the extra pressure. He is not a lord, so there is no need to accept this kind of test.
"Of course, Mr. Demon Hunter." Knight Alves, as the most loyal follower of the Prince family, knew very well about the little nobles who really did things in the city. It took him a few minutes to write down the names of more than a dozen people.
He had no idea what impact this list would have on Goetherem City, so the Knights of Alves were in the mood to ask: "How do you plan to resolve the rebellion in the city? If you can, please do not hurt Miss Elizabeth. The war between you and the church will be torn apart."
"I try my best to solve this problem, but you don't need to bear any pressure. We will take over the defense work of Goethrim City." The Demon Hunter put away the list with satisfaction and put it in his arms, patted the other party's shoulder: "Thank you for your cooperation with the Knight."
The list was handed over to the assassin Fan Li that night. Before dawn, the huge arrest operation ended. All the nobles in the city were arrested by strong orcs and Marines, and none of them were spared.
The rebels were crushed, and the escapers were caught by Fan Li mobilized the locals and he offered a price for a nobleman to exchange for fifty bags of food. A large group of dilapidated people traveled all over the city just to receive the reward.
In the end, apart from a few people who escaped from the city by secret passage, they almost captured all the noble forces in the city, and there were also many unexpected gains.
For example, a few members of the Lion Knights who were confused and a dozen members of the dejected Paladin Expeditionary Force, they were all survivors of the Wangxiangcheng War, and this time they were arrested.
In Xu Yichen's opinion, the local nobles, who embezzled and bribed bribes and bullied the people, had nothing to do with him. This was not his country, his city, nor his people. As long as he was not involved in chaos, he would not cause trouble for them as a demon hunter.
