In this regard, Chu Mo did not express any opinion.

Chu Xin on the side began to frown.

According to her previous experience, most of these barbarians were brave and ruthless people. In order to open up business channels, she had spent countless manpower and material resources and promised various benefits.

But even so, goods are still robbed from time to time.

If he hadn't taken extraordinary measures later and bloodbathed several escapees, this would have made each tribe try its best to restrain their own tribesmen so as not to cause trouble to their own families.

But according to what Zhang San said, these barbarians were very restrained from the beginning and did not want to conflict with them, which was a bit confusing to her.

If they suffered a loss in Leizhou City, even if the outbreak was inappropriate, they would definitely come to seek revenge after leaving Leizhou City.

You must know that the most critical point why Chu Xin chose to cooperate with these barbarians instead of taking them all for her own use is:

These people will run away if they can't be beaten, and as soon as they run away, they will run into the mountains and forests. If you go to encircle and suppress them, without knowing the terrain clearly, you will basically go there and never return.

But even if you understand the terrain well and take a local guide with you, as soon as the natives feel that something is wrong, they will immediately flee and continue deeper into the mountains and forests, making it impossible for you to catch them.

Therefore, in her subsequent dealings with these people, Chu Xin, who had had several experiences, basically used inducements as the main method, supplemented by force and intimidation, and tried her best to have a good relationship with them.

But looking back at Leizhou City, Zhang San and the others just arrived in Leizhou City for the first time.

It is not unreasonable to say that at first all the tribes were afraid of the powerful force in their hands and temporarily restrained themselves.

But after such a long time, the two sides were still getting along well, which made Chu Xin confused again.

In fact, what Chu Xin didn't know was that Zhang San and the others did have a conflict with the local indigenous people at the beginning.

However, when Zhang San and the others took 500, they rushed directly into the mountains and forests, and after dealing with the young men in the village who offended them for four days and three nights, they either captured them alive or beheaded them all.

Then they brought the entire village, regardless of gender, old or weak, back to Leizhou City and imprisoned them. No one in the surrounding village dared to stroke their tiger beards anymore.

They are not afraid of strong soldiers and strong horses, they are not afraid of abundant supplies, and they are not afraid of strong cities and strong ponds.

I'm just afraid that not only do they have knives, horses and food, but they can also capture and kill them in the jungle.

He can't be beaten, he can't escape, he provokes one person, attracts a group of people, and in the end, not only does he lose his head, but he also brings bad luck to his clan members. Who wouldn't be afraid of such a powerful army?

Chu Xin, who didn't think clearly about the cause of the matter, only thought that the surrounding natives were waiting for the opportunity to show off to themselves.

Therefore, as soon as she arrived at the Governor's Mansion, she directly ordered her men to replace Zhang San and others to take over the city defense task.

Moreover, on the grounds of calculating the surrounding population, Zhang San and the others were ordered to leave the city in an effort to find out the surrounding situation as soon as possible.

Regarding this disguised expulsion of them, Zhang San and others simply gave up.

"Sir, we have worked hard and conscientiously all the way, and finally opened up the situation here. Now here comes an inexplicable person who wants to expel us in just a few words? Don't you think this approach will chill us?"

Zhang San looked at Chu Mo in disbelief, wanting him to stand up and stop Chu Xin from doing this crazy thing.

Feeling the stinging pain in his waist, Chu Mo nodded expressionlessly and said:

"I said, Chu Xin's order is my order. If you have any objections, you can just get out."

After saying that, he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Hearing Chu Mo's words, Zhang San, Li Si and others all looked at Chu Mo angrily and wanted to say something, but in the end they just moved their mouths and made no sound. After sighing, they just threw up their sleeves and left.

Then Chu Xin directly took over the entire governor's mansion.

He sent out all the servants, maids and servants in the governor's mansion and replaced them with those he brought.

Not only that, she also counted all the officials in Leizhou City, drove all the people Chu Mo brought from Chang'an City to serve in several counties under her jurisdiction, and replaced all the main positions with her own people.

Such a big change naturally attracted the attention of the surrounding tribes. However, they have not yet figured out the details of this new governor, so they all continue to lie dormant.

Chu Xin's various actions did not avoid Chu Mo at all, they were all done in front of her.

According to Chu Xin, Chu Mo is now a mascot. As long as he sits there and watches honestly, he doesn't need to worry about anything else.

And Chu Mo also fulfilled the role of a mascot very well.

For those who disobeyed Chu Xin's appointment or dismissal, or suspected that Chu Mo was being controlled by Chu Xin, they were all dismissed with one sentence: Either execute or get out.

In just three days, Chu Xin completely controlled the entire Leizhou City in her hands.

Originally, she wanted to strike while the iron was hot, control Panzhou City and Luozhou City together, and then fully develop Hainan Island.

However, for some reason, Chu Mo, who originally obeyed his words, never let go. Even if he coerced him and put a knife on his neck, Chu Mo never let go.

After thinking about it, Chu Xin understood that Panzhou City and Luozhou City were one of Chu Mo's only remaining trump cards. If they were handed over to her so easily, she would be a little worried about whether the other party had some conspiracy.

Chu Xin, who thought she had seen through Chu Mo's heart, did not force Chu Mo too much in the following days, but began to consolidate everything she had in Leizhou City.

First, she asked caravans from various places to continuously transport supplies and began to repair and build Leizhou City.

Secondly, in Chu Mo's name, she began to issue migration rewards to the entire Tang Dynasty, directly doubling Chu Mo's original reward.

Of course, she did not treat the people who migrated in the first place favorably. She not only supplemented their rewards, but also encouraged them to live together on their own, reclaim wasteland, and strive to integrate into the local life.

Finally, she mobilized countless craftsmen from various places to work day and night to build water conservancy and various workshops.

Not only that, she also hired local indigenous people and people at high prices. As long as they were willing to come to work, she would give them generous rewards. She also promised that when the workshop was completed, they would be given priority to become the first batch of workers in the workshop. staff.

As a result, the surrounding people followed in droves, and almost everyone who could move came here to sign up.
