After being choked to death by a copper coin, she became a demon Jin Ji in the other world

[Tsk tsk, you haven't even left your mother's house yet and you're already thinking about the future. I don't think you have no feelings for the little girl at all, as you said? ]

[We've already slept together, what's the point of asking if I feel anything? I'm not like you, who has been through all kinds of flowers without getting a single leaf on me. Now that I've chosen this little girl, I'm not going to change.]

[Is that so? As your good sister, I can only wish you to get what you want soon.]

[However, having said that, although the master had long tacitly agreed to the change of family before his reincarnation, aren't you planning too early? The master is still alive and kicking now.]

[Early? But this is what the master meant. After I expressed my feelings to her, she did not deprive me of the management rights of the Rhine River, but directly recommended the little girl to me. You should know what this means? ]

[I know, this means that the master has already started planning for the succession of power. Sigh, I really can't understand the master's thoughts. She is obviously still full of energy, why is she starting to think about these things? ]

[It’s understandable actually. If we wait until the last minute to complete everything, then if something unexpected happens, wouldn’t Gan be at a huge loss?]

[That's true. Oh, why is this topic getting so off topic? It's all your fault. You have to find a wife for no reason. Let's get back to the topic.]

[In short, the master means that the geographical location of Wuxia Town is too important. The other world and other major forces are keeping a close eye on it, which is not conducive to the little girl's quiet development of power. Therefore, we must take Wuxia Town to ensure the little girl's safety.]

[As for the location of their new port, we can also provide some guidance, help her find a good place, and provide a certain degree of help to ensure that she can defend it. In a word, protect the little girl and don't let her get hurt. ]

[Tsk, this little girl is so lucky, it makes me a little jealous. With such a good master by her side, her life in the other world will definitely be smooth.]

[Haha, not necessarily. As the saying goes, there is gain and loss. Although she will not encounter any major disasters, she will never get any great opportunities. Isn't that how life is? ]

[Okay, let's stop chatting here. The little girl's fox has come over. They should have finished discussing it. We should go back and continue.]

[Hey? I haven't even touched my steak yet! ]

[Then eat while walking, and don’t let me get in the way! ]

[Yes, yes, I didn't expect that after so many years, Master Xingyan is still so rigid. What does it matter if it's a little earlier or a little later? ]

【You will miss a good show because of this. 】

[Oh? Then I have to hurry up, I can't miss the melon-eating show. ]

The melon-eating drama that the two had been looking forward to had already been staged in Shen Yuelan's room. As Shen Yuelan expected, Qingji strongly opposed Shen Yuelan's sale of Wuxia Town, but she also refused Shen Yuelan to return the surrender letter.

[Ms. Qingji, why are you doing this? Since you don't want to leave with us, then it would be the most sensible choice to cut your losses in time and choose to break up peacefully, right? What's the point of getting entangled to this point?]

[Ms. Shen, I understand your thoughts. I just want to ask you a question. If you don't even have the confidence to keep Maixia Town, then why do you think you can keep the new city? ]

[This... The geographical location of the new city will not be that important, so there will be fewer spying forces, and it will be easier for us to deal with, so it will be easier to defend than Maixia Town. ]

[Haha, Miss Shen, you don't know that thousands of years ago, when Wuxia Town was just established, there was no shipping route nearby. It was because of Wuxia Town that there was the shipping route today, not that the shipping route came first and then the city.]

[In other words, no matter where you build your city, someone will fight for it in the end. If that's the case, why do you still want to give in? You shouldn't have given in from the beginning!]

[We women and children are not afraid of dying on the battlefield against foreign enemies, so what do you, as a lord, have to fear? ]

Chapter 252 The Dust Settles

Shen Yuelan looked at the aggressive Qing Ji in front of her and felt exhausted for a moment. She had never thought that governing a country or a city would be such a troublesome thing.

All forces have their own little plans. On the surface, what they say sound high-sounding and grandiose, and they do this and that for the overall situation, but in fact they are completely out to protect their own selfish interests.

However, when I want to implement something that seems simple, I encounter a lot of resistance. Either people disagree with this or there are problems with that. I really don't know what kind of pressure the reformers in history were under to implement their political initiatives.

After you go back, find a reformer to learn from. Wang Anshi's reforms are more famous, but they were not successful. Zhang Juzheng's reforms, although also only treated the symptoms and not the root cause, at least extended the life of the Ming Dynasty for a few decades. You can learn from him when you have time.

As for Qingji, although she didn't really want to continue the conversation, since she had taken over this hot potato in the first place, she should be responsible for it. Escaping would not solve the problem, and she would always have to face everything.

[Alas, even if you say so, it does not change the fact that this kind of sacrifice is meaningless. You are right. If I cannot defend this place, then I will not be able to defend the new city either.]

[But the problem is, I won't stay this weak forever. I will grow into a towering tree sooner or later, but I won't become strong right away. I need time to grow, and the time I spent in the new city was the growth period I fought for myself.]

[Qingji, I know that you probably have the same idea. You want to find a lord who has less control over you, grow quietly under her nominal protection, and then kick her out when the time is right.]

[So among all the forces, you found me, a guy who doesn't look that strong, but still has some status, am I right? ]

[Alas, although I don't want to admit it, what Miss Shen said is not wrong. We probably have such thoughts. Although we are weak, we have hidden some good seedlings over the years. It just takes time to grow.]

[But I must make one thing clear to you. Although we do want to take advantage of you, we are definitely not ungrateful. As long as you treat us well, we have no interest in changing our allegiance.]

[Really? What about now? I can tell you clearly that tomorrow morning at the latest, I will announce that I will give up Maixia Town. When that happens, what will you do? ]

[Are you really so heartless? ]

[It's not that I'm heartless. I've invited you to go to the new city together, but you didn't want to follow me. I can't do anything about it. I can only say that I'm not worthy of my position and I haven't gained enough trust from you. It's also fate and time.]

Seeing Shen Yuelan looking lost, Qingji felt a little guilty. She gritted her teeth and quietly told Shen Yuelan that not everyone was against her proposal.

There are now two factions within Wuxia Town. One faction is led by outsiders, who advocate abandoning this sinful city and following Shen Yuelan to the new city to start over. The other faction is naturally the local prostitutes.

They have lived in this city for too long, so they know too many secrets hidden in this city. Among these secrets, there are also some treasures that can make people rich overnight. Therefore, no one can give up those secrets easily.

Shen Yuelan was silent for a long time after hearing this, and she only asked Qingji one question in the end.

[Qingji, whether it's me or you, do you think that with our current strength, we can really keep those so-called secrets? ]

Qingji was also silent when she heard this. She knew what Shen Yuelan meant. She wanted her to give up those secrets and those residents of Wuxia Town who were blinded by money, and only take away those who were clear-headed.

Reason told Qingji that Shen Yuelan was right. Those guys were troublesome even in the war and were not worth saving.

But her emotions told her that she couldn't give up on them. Those who were sober were her family, but weren't those who were confused also her family?

[Ah, I understand. I will ask Lord Dujuan to take away those residents who are willing to leave. They are all miserable people. I hope you can treat them well.]

[Well, I will. What about you? Won't you leave with me? Although you have refused again and again, I can see that your eyes are full of longing for the outside world. You don't want to be trapped here.]

[Alas, yes, you are right, I do want to fly in the sky and hover among the stars. That was my childhood dream and the spiritual pillar that supported me to endure so many years of torture.]

[But life is not only about dreams, but also about heavy responsibilities. Although in your opinion, those who are obsessed with money are hopeless, they are my loved ones who have helped me and sacrificed everything for me.]

[Qingji would never give up on them no matter what, even if she fell into depravity again.]

[I see. I am really sorry, Qingji. I can see that you are a very talented person, but your identity as a singing girl has buried your talent in the secular world.]

[If we could meet at the right time and the right place, the result would definitely be different. Unfortunately, there is no if in this world. I can only wish you peace and success. ]

【Thank you for your help. 】

After giving in, Qingji felt extremely fragile, and for some reason, many tiny red marks suddenly appeared on her exposed skin, as if a gorgeous flower had bloomed.

Following Shen Yuelan's gaze, Qingji also noticed her own changes. She covered her arms shyly and explained to Shen Yuelan that the guests who went to Maisha Town for fun all had some special fetishes.

Her patron loved it most when the man and the woman were making love, and red plum blossoms would bloom on the woman's body. In order to survive, she had to cater to his taste and let the seemingly beautiful "plum blossoms" spread all over her body. Whenever she was a little excited, those red plum blossoms would appear.

[I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. Qingji will leave now to avoid offending your eyes. ]

Shen Yuelan saw that it was not right to stay or not to stay. What was she going to do if she stayed? Did she want to be a benefactor? But if she didn't stay, it would seem like she was looking down on him, which didn't make sense to say.

Shen Yuelan suddenly felt a little regretful about sending Su Xuan out. Really, why hasn’t this guy come back yet? Didn’t he just ask her to find someone?

So where is the little fox now?

The correct answer is that she was eavesdropping in the next room with Gan Xingyan and others. Of course, the little fox was forced. In the process of looking for the two people, her fate was strangled by these two old women.

Therefore, I could only follow them obediently. Anyway, the boss's order was to find them back, so I would be considered to have completed the mission.

Chapter 253 Return with a Full Load

After Qingji left, the three of them waited for a while before pretending to return to Shen Yuelan's room. Unexpectedly, the little fox broke free from Gan Xingyan's grip as soon as he entered the room and quickly slipped back to Shen Yuelan's side.

Looking at the angry little fox, Shen Yuelan knew that this guy was being bullied, so she quickly hugged it in her arms and comforted it softly. Su Xuan also took advantage of her grievance to tell Shen Yuelan about the two of them eavesdropping.

Upon hearing this, Shen Yuelan looked at the two of them speechlessly until they both blushed slightly.

So, you all heard it just now?

[Hehe, I heard a little bit, just a little bit. We heard it by accident, it was not intentional. Don't listen to this little thing, she is taking revenge on me for pinching her neck just now.]

[Haha, I am too lazy to argue with you about these things. Since you have all heard it, I will not waste my time telling you again.]

[As you have heard, the agreement between me and the rebels has been reached. I will take away a group of residents who are willing to leave with me, and the rest will continue to stay in Maixia Town. In other words, I agree to transfer Maixia Town. ]

[As for my offer for selling Wuxia Town, it is also very simple. I need you to help me find a new place to settle down to accommodate the people and fleet that followed me.]

[Haha, I'm glad you figured it out. Don't worry, your request is not a big deal. I'll report it to you today, and your territorial claim will be approved tomorrow.]

[Of course, since my younger sister is so understanding, I, as her elder sister, naturally cannot be stingy. After all, we are all taking advantage of others, so we should be generous to them.]

[Well, let's do this. The other world will provide you with all the materials you need to build your new territory, and will also provide you with 15 years of free security services, plus an annual billion land reclamation subsidy, which will also last for years.]

[Let me think about it. By the way, according to the standards of the other world, each of these immigrants under your command should be able to receive a valuable amount of demolition compensation, which is a considerable amount of money.]

In addition, Gan Xingyan also exploited many loopholes in the other world's system and helped Shen Yuelan obtain a lot of subsidies, allowing her to make a lot of money. Shen Yuelan, who originally had some resentment towards Gan Xingyan, instantly all her resentment disappeared.

Even the little fox, whose fate had just been strangled by the neck, was now only concerned with calculating the income and had no energy to get angry. His two fox eyes had all turned into little starry eyes, which was truly dazzling.

Shen Yuelan suddenly felt a little regretful. What was she gathering for before? Wouldn't it be better to just lie down early? Wouldn't it be better to be a demolition household? What's the point of gathering all those nonsense? Sure enough, slacking off is justice!

After successfully reaching an agreement with the inner world, Shen Yuelan called Du Juan again and informed her about the demolition subsidy, hoping to attract another group of people to leave with her.

After all, they are all strong and energetic young people who can still be lively after suffering so much torture. Although they are all girls, their number makes them a huge force that cannot be ignored, so we should take away as many as we can.

As for why they used the name of demolition compensation to attract them, it was because in Shen Yuelan's view, what Qingji said, that she was unwilling to leave with her because of the secret of Wuxia Town, was simply nonsense.

She knew the psychology of the petty bourgeoisie too well. The main reason why they were unwilling to leave was that they did not benefit from the moving process.

Since there is no benefit in leaving with you, and there is no harm in staying in Maixia Town, why should I go through the trouble of running to the new city with you?

Therefore, even if there are people who are willing to follow Shen Yuelan and leave, they are probably only a very small minority in the entire Wuxia Town. But as long as the news of the high demolition fee is spread, the effect will definitely be great.

By the way, Dujuan should also publicize the government's free housing allocation. In this way, the working class, which accounts for more than 90% of the population of Maishita Town, will flock to the city in an instant.

As for those aristocrats and privileged classes who have a little money, well, they can come or not. Shen Yuelan doesn't want them to get involved in her territory.

When all the common people leave Maixia Town, they will know that their status and wealth are just castles in the air without the common people. Without the common people, they are nothing. At that time, anyone can extort money from them.

Shortly after the meeting ended, Shen Suchang and others returned to their rooms one after another. Shen Suchang and Su Jiu searched the surrounding area but couldn't find a good place. Either the transportation was inconvenient or the place was not suitable for living.

Fortunately, in the southeast of the inner world, we finally found a small world with irregular terrain but rich natural resources. There were many mountains, water and fruit trees there, which was very suitable for building a winery.

Shen Yuelan thought for a moment and finally decided to go and take a look by herself. Although the other world promised to find a good place for her, Shen Yuelan estimated that the place would not be too hidden. It would be good for living, but it would be another matter if it was used as a naval port.

Huanyan brought back a message from Bei, who agreed to Shen Yuelan's request and said that they would continue to pay attention to the movements of the Silver Federation and contain the other party when necessary.

[Sister Bei also invited you to visit her place. 】

[She said that she had been busy since she went back and had not found a suitable opportunity to come back to us, so if we were free, we could go to her place and she would ensure that we would enjoy royal treatment.]

[Haha, okay, after I finish all the chores here, I will go to her place to take a look. If the mountain doesn't come to me, then I will go to the mountain.]

After everything was settled, Shen Yuelan and Gan Xingyan formally issued a joint announcement regarding the transfer of Wuxia Town. In the end, more than 600,000 residents of Wuxia Town chose to leave on the Yuelong, accounting for more than 90% of the total population of Wuxia Town.

The remaining tens of thousands of people were just as Shen Yuelan had expected. Most of them were brothel owners with considerable social status and their followers. Of course, there were also some old, weak, sick and disabled people among them (relatively speaking).

They have lived in Maixia Town all their lives. They were born, grew up, and will die here. Therefore, they have no plans to move. However, they gave Shen Yuelan a special gift.

A Qingji who was tied up like a gift, and the way she was tied up showed that she was an expert in SM. Although it seemed that nothing was exposed when viewed individually, the overall look was very erotic.

The other party did not have any ill intentions. Originally, there were only about 50,000 people willing to leave with Shen Yuelan, while as many as 600,000 chose to stay. At that time, it was understandable that Qingji chose to stay with them.

But under the premise that the number of people on both sides has almost been exchanged, letting Qingji stay to accompany them would be a waste of Qingji's time, so these old guys decided to knock Qingji unconscious and take her away directly.

In order to reduce Qingji's psychological burden after she wakes up, those of them who are still able to move have to leave with her and accompany Qingji to complete this last journey. Hearing this, Shen Yuelan couldn't help but smack her lips. What a happy guy.

Little did they know that others were also amazed at the sight of them, thinking they were two very happy people.

Chapter 254: Records of Officials' Actions

After a brief stop in Wuxia Town, the Yuelong set off again, heading towards the other world. Gan Xingyan and Muse did not stay on the ship. They stayed to deal with the mess in Wuxia Town and the surrounding enemies' spying on this place.

[Heh, the Silver Federation's fleet arrived much later than we expected? Did the organization make arrangements in advance? ]

[The Wuxia Town Uprising happened suddenly. Even we can't take care of everything. It was the little girl's work.]

[Ah, this little thing is much more capable than I thought? She was able to suppress a large force for such a long time. I thought she was only good in bed? ]

[Haha, you should be more careful with your words. She is your future concubine. If you spread dirty rumors about her, aren't you afraid of being buried in the crematorium?]

[Haha, let’s talk about it after I survive today. ]

The two of them are now surrounded by the Silver Federation's army. The once prosperous and magnificent Wuxia Town has long been razed to the ground by the flames of war. The tens of thousands of Wuxia Town residents who stayed here have turned into dust and entered the underworld forever with their secrets.

[Damn it! These bastards really know how to pick the right time. They didn't come earlier or later, but had to wait until the Moonlight left before coming. If I had the Moonlight in my hands, killing these guys would be a piece of cake.]

[Alas, they are not fools. They chose this opportunity when we are out of military equipment. Believe it or not, if the Moonlight hadn't taken so many people away, they might not have dared to act so presumptuously.]

[Believe it, of course you don't, Master Xingyan, I've read the Pure White Pact. According to the Pact, if more than 100,000 civilians are killed in a conflict or war, it's considered a massacre. We just don't have that number, so even if we want to sanction him afterwards, we have nowhere to go.]

[That's right. I seriously suspect that there is a secret in Wuxia Town that the Silver Federation's top brass wants to destroy. Otherwise, why would they disregard their own image and be so eager to destroy everything in Wuxia Town? ]
