Chapter 246 Uprooting
[My Lord, is it really okay for us to watch someone die without helping him? ]
[Dujuan, I'm telling you, in a place like this, you should either uproot it or don't mess with it, otherwise it will be a mess and you'll end up in trouble.]
[What are you waiting for? Let's uproot it now! ]
[Du Juan, if we had that ability, why would we wait until now to seek revenge? ]
[But...but, isn't the Yuelong already ours? I also heard that we have purchased a batch of warships. It shouldn't be a problem to deal with them, right? ]
[You are well-informed, but I just placed the order yesterday and it hasn't been shipped yet. What do you want me to use? The Yuelong? ]
[Du Juan, war will kill people. We can't always escape unscathed like we did with Li Yue.]
Du Juan curled her lips when she heard this. Isn't it just death? It's not like she hasn't died before. She is a well-known vengeful ghost!
Shen Yuelan and the other person strolled through the streets and alleys of the city. This shabby place was filled with brothels and whorehouses, and there didn't seem to be much to see. Besides, the women who had just arrived were still waiting for them to go back and report the news.
So after checking in at several famous places in the area, the two of them hurriedly ended their trip and started returning towards the port.
But Wuxia Town was quite hospitable. It seemed that it hoped that Shen Yuelan would stay here forever and rot to death. When they passed by a large nightclub, they were surrounded by dozens of elf slaves who rushed out.
The leading madam stood on the street and stated in a stern tone that Shen Yuelan and Du Juan were girls who ran away from their family, and that they must go back with them, otherwise they would have to pay a ransom of 10 billion yuan before they could leave.
Shen Yuelan almost laughed out of anger when she heard this. What kind of bandit logic is this? Why is he bullying customers by being so big and forcing them to buy things from him? He doesn't even consider whether he has the ability to do so.
In this lawless place, the madam and others can use violence, so can Shen Yuelan and others not? Of course they can. The ghosts are always irritable, and Du Juan is not in a good mood to talk nonsense with the madam.
With a "whoosh" of a knife, the madam's head flew three meters away in an instant, followed by the dozen or so eunuchs, all of whom died in a miserable manner.
Shen Yuelan stayed there quietly, watching everything indifferently. She did not speak to stop them. This group of eunuchs were actually the same people who wanted to rob her before. Shen Yuelan had let them go before.
But it doesn't make sense to say it once, twice, but never a third time. Shen Yuelan is not a soft persimmon that can be easily dealt with. If you touch her red line, you will naturally have to pay a price. After all, Yuelong is a large battleship, and it has enough firepower to destroy this makeshift team.
Therefore, when these guys attacked her again, Shen Yuelan ordered to kill them without hesitation, and Du Juan faithfully carried out Shen Yuelan's order. Don't think that this move was easy.
The old brothel owner had the guts to rely on a dozen eunuchs to rob women in broad daylight, so she must have something to rely on. According to Du Juan's later recollection, those eunuchs were at least demon king-level monsters.
If Du Juan hadn't been here today, Shen Yuelan might have really been in trouble.
However, precisely because the difficulty of achieving this achievement is so high, Du Juan's murderous posture successfully shocked the other forces in Wuxia Town. After that, no one dared to attack Shen Yuelan anymore, at least that's what Shen Yuelan thought.
[Humph, it turns out that a tiger won’t show its might, so you treat me like a sick cat. This time, let’s see who dares to attack me! ]
[Alright, alright, hurry up and leave, my Lord, don't cause any more trouble. If they come with another wave of these guys, I can't guarantee that I can lead you back safely.]
[Eh? Why didn't you tell me earlier? Hurry up and leave. Hurry up and leave. I don't want to be caught in the red light district and become a prostitute. The thought of it is terrifying.]
Just like that, under Du Juan's full protection, Shen Yuelan successfully returned to the Yuelong, but do you think this episode ended like this?
Of course not. Just as the Yuelong was about to set sail, a letter of surrender was delivered to Shen Yuelan's room by a singing girl with a pure appearance and charming figure. Moreover, this singing girl came to deliver the letter of surrender on behalf of the entire Maixia Town.
This move by Wuxia Town made Shen Yuelan very confused. Why are you surrendering? I am not attacking you. But the reply given by the singing girl named Qingji made Shen Yuelan helpless.
What Qingji meant was that the person who surrounded Shen Yuelan and Dujuan some time ago was the boss of their Wuxia Town, who was also the president of the Wuxia Town Business Association, Luo Xinfu.
And those guys under her who were believed to be pimps were actually the presidents of various branches. In other words, what Du Juan took down two days ago were not the madams and pimps of a certain red-light district, but the top brass of the entire Maisha Town.
Although Shen Yuelan did not declare war on Wuxia Town, this move was almost the same as directly declaring a war, and the first battle was the decisive battle. Wuxia Town was defeated miserably and its top leaders were completely wiped out.
After all the branch presidents who were the top fighting forces in Maishita Town died, the middle-level management with low fighting power and small numbers could no longer suppress the riots of the lower-level people in Maishita Town.
Who are the people at the bottom of Maishita Town? Geisha, dancing girls, music girls... In short, they are a group of fallen women who were deceived and abducted by the new wives through various despicable means.
Previously, due to the existence of those demon king-level branch presidents, their several uprisings had all failed, and several uprising leaders had been stripped and their bodies left exposed, and brutally killed. However, as long as oppression exists, the spark of uprising will not be extinguished.
Naturally, they would not miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Just yesterday, a large-scale uprising organized by a singing girl named Kiyohime successfully overthrew the rule of the Commercial Federation and liberated Maishita Town.
The story should have a happy ending at this point, but after liberation, a new problem arose. The fact that they could easily overthrow the rule of the Chamber of Commerce did not mean that they were qualified to rule Maixia Town.
In fact, although there are hundreds of thousands of people in Wuxia Town, there is not even a demon king level. Without the protection of the strong, it means that even if they escape from the wolf's den, they will be caught in a new tiger's den soon.
It's not like they haven't thought about escaping from this sinful city, but the frustrating thing is that when they were captured by the Internet Bride, all their previous identities had been destroyed by the Internet Bride.
In the eyes of other forces, the residents of Maishita Town are no different from illegal residents. No ship would be willing to take them away in such a large number in a short period of time.
With no other options, the women had to find a force to join, and at this time, they thought of the two sisters who wiped out the high-ranking officials of Maixia Town.
After making inquiries from many sources, they found out that the person who killed Luo Xinfu was a subordinate of the Yuelong owner, the Ghost Emperor Du Juan, and the owner of the Yuelong was Shen Yuelan.
Chapter 247: Repaying Kindness with Revenge
[I see. I already understand the general situation. Then why don't you just come to me or Du Juan? Why do you have to surrender? ]
[Please forgive me, there are hundreds of thousands of people in Maishita Town, most of whom are women and children who cannot lift or carry anything. I am afraid that you will not take them in, so I came up with this idea.]
[If you surrender to me, I must take you in? ]
[Hehe, treating prisoners well is an unspoken rule in the civilized world. At the very least you have to send us back to our place of origin.]
Well, well, she is being taken advantage of. This girl is almost laughing at Shen Yuelan's anger. However, Shen Yuelan's skill in cultivating her Qi is quite good, so she didn't get angry immediately. She continued to ask patiently:
[Okay, okay, you are so cruel. You are repaying kindness with enmity, right? ]
[Oh, that's not right. We don't intend to eat for free here. If you have any work to do, just tell us. We will do our best to complete it. As long as it's not a lowly job that requires us to sell our bodies, that's fine.]
Shen Yuelan was stunned when she heard this. She carefully observed the woman named Qingji for a moment and found that she was indeed serious and not trying to fool her. If that was the case, Shen Yuelan could help them.
[Is that so? You only have women and children, but no old, weak, sick or disabled people? ]
【No. 】
[How can a normal city be without the elderly, the weak, the sick and the disabled? ]
[Sir, of course it’s because Maixia Town is not a normal city. The new lady is more vicious than you think. She will not waste food on useless people. The only fate for us after we grow old and lose our beauty is death.]
[In Maixia Town, no one can live past 35. Of course, the 35 years old I refer to is the change in appearance, not the real age.]
So that's how it is. So, if she takes over the entire Maishita Town, she can instantly have a large and young workforce? Hmm, that's not right, right?
[Yeah, but you also said that the lower-class people in Maixia Town were all plundered from the outside world by the madam called Luo Xinfu. If I accept you now, but they all run away after a short period of work, where can I go to seek justice? ]
[You can rest assured about this. The plundering of the Neti Bride has been going on for many years. Most of us are the third, fourth, or even fifth generations of foreign women and their clients. We can only be people of Maixia Town in this life.]
[As for the outside women you are worried about, there are only about 10,000 or 20,000 of them still alive. Even if we let them go, it won't affect the overall situation. And I have already discussed with them, they will leave after leaving the ransom. ]
[Alas, that's not necessary. If I really accept that money, then what's the difference between me and the new wives? If they have money, they should leave Maixia Town as soon as possible and go find their own mothers.]
[Haha, you are really humorous. Members of the Kiyohime Daimai Shitamachi Foreign Resistance Association, thank you for your kindness. ]
[Don't be so quick to thank me. You only said that I accept your benefits, but you haven't explained your disadvantages and hidden dangers. Since you are sincere in joining us, you have to let me know the problems so that I can deal with them as soon as possible.]
[Your Excellency is right. I was negligent and accepted the disadvantages of Maixia Town. On the one hand, we need to clear out the prostitutes who are still staying in Maixia Town. There are many powerful people among them, which may cause some trouble.]
[Another thing is that after Maixia Town resumes contact with the outside world, the identities of the outside women who died in Maixia Town will gradually become clear, and their families may come to cause trouble. ]
[There is also the employment problem of hundreds of thousands of people in Maishita Town. After they give up their old jobs, how can we guide them to new jobs while ensuring they have enough food to eat, so that they don’t return to their old jobs? This is also a livelihood issue that cannot be ignored.]
[Qingji has a limited vision, so this is all I can think of at the moment. ]
Is her vision limited? This woman is much more sophisticated than she says. All three questions are the most acute ones at this stage, but they must be solved.
So how should I solve these problems? Shen Yuelan already has a plan for the employment problem of the people. The most advantageous place of Wuxia Town is its geographical location.
This place is not far from the other world, and can be used as the home port for the Yuelong fleet. The fleet's services and maintenance, the port's cargo handling and storage, and the passenger travel and accommodation can all create many jobs.
In addition, Su Jiu's wine factory can also be moved here from the other world to make wine. The convenient transportation here can not only save a lot of transportation costs, but also create a large number of jobs, killing two birds with one stone.
In addition to ports, wineries and tourism, some government agencies, hospitals, schools can be established, and training courses in agriculture, animal husbandry and handicrafts can be organized.
In this way, the employment problems of most people should be solved and the entire Maixia Town can be put back into operation. As for any problems that may arise during the operation, they can only be solved as they arise.
As for the first two questions raised by Qing Ji, their essence is similar. It is nothing more than being afraid that a great white shark will suddenly jump out from a bunch of salted fish. Regarding this, Shen Yuelan has no good solution and can only take it one step at a time.
[Ah, by the way, my Lord, I suddenly remembered that there is actually one benefit for you to accept Maixia Town, that is, the Commercial Federation of Maixia Town stores the dirty wealth accumulated by the brothel business in Maixia Town for thousands of years.]
[Although this money is dirty, it is also the hard-earned money that we, the prostitutes of Maishita Town, have worked hard to save. Sir, I hope you can take us in for the sake of this money. Please, sir.]
After Shen Yuelan pondered for a moment, she finally agreed. It was not because of the huge fortune, but because all the conditions in Wuxia Town were very much in line with Shen Yuelan's current needs.
The convenient geographical location, cheap labor, the centripetal force of the people, and the legality of occupying this place, the buffs have been maxed out, and if you don’t want them anymore, you’d be ungrateful.
[Well, since you think highly of me, I will accept Maishita Town's surrender and formally bring it under my command.]
[After you return, you will immediately set up the Wuxia Municipal Government and issue a decree to shut down all the sex industry and expel all clients from the country.]
[Then we will rebuild schools, hospitals and other public service departments according to the needs, and make preparations to take over the military port and winery. I will send people to sort out the money in the Federation. If you need it, as long as it is reasonable, just go and withdraw it. ]
[Yes, sir, you can leave the matter of reorganizing the social order of Maixia Town, no, Maixia City, to me, but what do you mean by the military port and the winery? Maixia City does not have any industry or facilities in this regard, right? ]
[It doesn't matter. Although it doesn't exist now, it will be available soon. You don't need to worry about it for now. The most troublesome thing for you now is to do a good job of population sorting and social integration. These tasks are the foundation for us to rebuild Wuxia City, so we must do a good job.]
【promise.】
Chapter 248: Becoming Famous
After sending Qing Ji away, Shen Yuelan called Shen Huanyan, Shen Sushang, Su Xuan, Su Jiu, Du Juan and others to discuss the matter. Everyone was surprised to hear that they had inexplicably become the masters of Wuxia Town, ah, Wuxia City.
However, although they may face difficulties of one kind or another, everyone is looking at the matter with a positive attitude, especially Dujuan, whose little chin is almost raised to the sky.
[Okay, okay, Dujuan, everyone knows that you have made contributions, and you will be rewarded in the future. Put your chin down quickly. If we want to keep this windfall, we still need a lot of work to do.]
[Hey, go ahead and talk, I'm listening.]
[Well, I will assign tasks to everyone now. Whether or not we can conquer Maishita Town depends on this one move.]
[Su Xuan, I did not interfere with the administration of Wuxia City, but handed it over to the leader of the uprising, Qing Ji. What I want you to do is to quickly take control of the local financial power and build it into a real commercial city.]
[According to Qing Ji, the headquarters of the Maishita Town Business Association stores the dirty wealth they have accumulated over thousands of years. You should check it out as soon as possible to see if it is true or not. If it is true, take it from the people as soon as possible and use it for the people.]
[Also, negotiate with Muse as soon as possible and change the delivery location to Muxia City. We now have a place to park the warship.]
【promise.】
[Su Shang, take Qin Ruishi back to the inner world first, send all the major forces back, and clearly inform them that Wuxia Town no longer exists. The current Wuxia City belongs to me, Shen Yuelan. Let them come to the capital for transit when they are free.]
[Also, after sending all the guests, return to Wuxia City as soon as possible. I need Qin Ruishi to build new infrastructure for Wuxia City, especially the military port and the winery. Those are our most important projects.]
[Alan, let's finish building the naval port and the winery before we leave. After all, no one knows what unexpected things might happen during the voyage, causing us to be late.]
[If we arrive later than the Rhine, won't our fleet of void warships just be piled up at the current small dock as scrap metal? This would be too unfair to Su Jiu for all his hard work these days. ]
[As for the passengers, we can arrange a pleasant vacation for them in Wuxia City. I don't think anyone will refuse it. They were very reluctant to leave Li Yue.]
[Well, that's fine. Su Chang will work a little harder, and you will be in charge of the construction work and welcoming guests. Is that okay? ]
[No problem, I will arrange it as quickly as possible. ]
[Su Jiu, the operation of the factory after it is completed will be handed over to you. The factory after completion will be about three times the size of the cabin workshop. It should not be a problem to accommodate tens of thousands of employees, right? ]
[Well, no problem. We may need more people. After all, they are not Qin Ruishi who can work 24 hours a day. The number of staff needed may eventually reach 70,000 to 80,000.]
【Good, the more the better. 】
[Mr. Du, you have made great contributions, so you will be the one to take over the military power of Wuxia City.]
[Ha, what military affairs are there in Wuxia City? What the hell is this concubine doing? And what the hell is Mr. Du? ]
[Alas, aren’t you a vengeful ghost? ]
[Is this what I mean? You bastard!]
[Oh, if you don't have one, just build one yourself, set up a police station or something like that, recruit your own team members, and set up your own staffing. In short, I'll leave the security work of Wuxia City to you.]
[What? My Lord, why don’t you give me a battleship and let me be the captain to have fun.]
[Okay, okay, you do this job first. As for the battleship, you can wait until it arrives.]
[Hey, that's better. I'll take Du You and Du Ling with me so I can lie down flat.]
[Hmph, wishful thinking. You can only keep one of the two, and the other one is for Huanyan. Huanyan, go copy a copy of the law collection, revise it, and promulgate it as the law of Wuxia City. Then go find Qingji to establish the Supreme Court of Wuxia City, and the Procuratorate.]
[Dean, you go ahead and take a few apprentices out. When we return to the inner world, you can also leave.]
[Okay, master. 】
After arranging everyone's work, Shen Yuelan finally breathed a sigh of relief. But before everyone dispersed and she could get up and stretch her muscles, Muse and Gan Xingyan came over, smelling the smell.
The reconstruction of a city contains countless business opportunities. As experienced businessmen, how could they not come and get a piece of the pie?
[Oh, I heard that Miss Shen did something big a few days ago, but she didn't even take me, her strategic partner, with her. I'm really sad.]
[Humph, I think the benefits I gave to Miss Muse before should be enough to satisfy Miss Muse's appetite. Could it be that Miss Muse intends to push for more? ]
[Oh my, look at what you said. I feel guilty and came here to make it up to you, don’t you think so? Miss Xingyan?]
[Hmph, Yue Lan, have you learned it? If you want to do business well, the first thing you have to do is to learn to be shameless. No matter who chases you away, you can't leave. Only by daring to go against the world can you make real money. ]
