From purifying pollution to god of order

=============================

After finishing Hart's cultivation method, Eus returned to the main topic. He asked, "Is there any gain after all the robbers are dealt with?"

"My lord, we wiped out six bandits' lairs, killed 450 bandits, and captured more than 100 bandits.

A total of 42 copper coins were seized, including countless ordinary weapons, armor, bows and arrows, and two boxes of jewelry, artwork, etc., with a price of about 20 copper coins.

We also rescued more than 500 people who were captured by the robbers, of which 100 were residents of Hanshiling, and the rest were passing merchants, travelers, and slaves. Hart reported respectfully.

"Investigate the captive robbers carefully, as long as they have innocent lives on their hands, they will all be executed, and the rest will be handed over to Lord Morgan.

I plan to choose a place behind the Cold Wind and Ice Blade Formation to build a fortress that can be attacked, retreated and defended, and let these bandits lay the foundation first.

As for the specific location of the building, let Morgan and Daros to finalize it. After the location is confirmed, I will send them the blueprint of the fortress. "

Eus always felt that it was not safe to rely on a cold wind and ice blade array to resist the Siberians, especially after Jody almost succeeded, he felt that relying on "dead objects" to form a defense line was far from enough.

The fortress is a good supplement. With this fortress, even if the cold wind and ice blade array fails again, there will still be fortresses inserted in key places like nails, preventing the Siberians from galloping recklessly.

"Yes! Your Excellency the Duke!" Hart responded and continued: "Your Excellency, there are polluters among the captives. How should they be dealt with?"

"It's all the same. I provide shelter to the polluters to allow them to be treated equally, not to give them privileges. If they commit a crime, they will be punished as they should. Everyone must be responsible for their actions." Eus said .

Although he wanted to use these robbers to gain order points, such as killing them after curing them, but it was very likely to touch the system's prohibition, and in the end, the gain outweighed the gain, so Eus extinguished this idea.

"My lord, what should we do with the rescued people?" Hart asked again.

"Treat them and let them choose where they want to go, whether they want to settle down or go back.

Whether they are civilians, businessmen, or slaves who want to settle down, their identities and pasts must be investigated to ensure that they are not escaped criminals hiding here.

If you want to go back, you can take some of the captured copper coins as travel expenses for them, but you don't need to give too much, just enough for them to reach their destination. "

At this point, Eus added: "If the slaves want to settle down, transfer them to Cold Moon City, let Lord Morgan arrange jobs for them, and use the points earned from the work to exchange for commoner status."

Eus rejected the slavery system in his heart, but he had no choice but to abolish the slavery system if he jumped out and said that he would be besieged by countless nobles.

After all, the great nobles have a lot of slaves under their hands, and these slaves are an indispensable benefit for them.

Cutting off one's wealth is like killing one's parents.

This sentence is more appropriate and bloody in the Olixi Empire. Before Eus is strong enough, he can only use this relatively obscure method to abolish the dross of slavery.

Moreover, many people don't know how to cherish things that are too easy to obtain. If the status of slaves is abolished at once, they may not only not be grateful, but may cause troubles.

"Yes! Your Excellency the Duke!" Hart will not feel repulsive about any of Eus's arrangements. Even if he has doubts in his heart, he will firmly and do his best to implement it.

"Also. I have a letter here. You have someone send it to the Imperial City of Oster. I want the right to maintain and control the Cold Wind and Ice Blade Array. I believe they will not refuse."

The power of the cold wind and ice blade array is impressive, and with the addition of ten battle puppets, a lot of resources need to be spent on these two things every year.

In addition, it is necessary to send people all the way from the imperial city of Otes, which can be time-consuming and labor-intensive. Now many maintainers are unwilling to take up this tiring work. Those who can be sent are generally excluded or rookies.

They were either resentful or lacking in ability, which caused the power of the cold wind and ice blade array and the ten battle puppets to decrease year by year.

Even if there is no Jody, the second or fifth boy, if this situation continues, the cold wind and ice blade array and the ten battle puppets will gradually lose their effect.

That being the case, Eus might as well hold the cold wind and ice blade array and ten battle puppets in his own hands.

Seeing that some "bad guys" are willing to spend this money and take on this drudgery, whether it is a mage who is used to being superior, or a priest of the Ice Snow Church who is gradually greedy for enjoyment, they are definitely willing to facilitate this matter.

As for whether the other princes would get in the way and stop this matter, Eus wasn't worried at all.

In the eyes of the other princes, whether it is the cold wind and ice blade array or the ten battle puppets, they can only slightly enhance Eus' strength.

Especially the cold wind and ice blade array, as an immovable array, has lower versatility.

It doesn't hurt to hand over the maintenance and control of these two things to Eus, and if something happens to these two things, they can take the opportunity to suppress Eus.

In general, they gave Eus an extra "weakness" without paying anything, and other princes would be happy to see such a result.

"Master, I'll let someone send it! By the way, develop our manpower in the Imperial City of Otes." Jing Ying suggested.

"Do you have a suitable candidate?"

After letting Jing Ying form the Mo Yiwei, Eus didn't bother much. Anyway, Jing Ying is very loyal to him, so there is no need to worry about Jing Ying's deceiving, or being a fox.

And in this matter, Jing Ying is a professional, and Eus, as a layman, only needs to give enough trust and financial support.

If they intervene forcefully and point fingers, it is very likely that the entire Moyiwei will be abolished.

"Yes. They are all former members of small gangs. They are quite clever. If you don't go deep into important places like the imperial palace, it is not a problem to just act as an ordinary person in the imperial city."

"Okay. Then leave it to your people to deal with. By the way, help me send a letter to Elura. I'm so busy that I don't have time to write to her." Eus said .

"Yes. Master."

After discussing some details, Hart and Jing Ying were ready to leave the study and go about their respective affairs.

At this time, Eus suddenly said, "Hart, "Lion Heart" has a miraculous effect on you. If you change it to someone else, the effect will be greatly reduced, so try not to pass it on to others."

When Hart heard this, he immediately knelt down and said, "Your Excellency, please rest assured that without your permission, I will not reveal a single word of "Lion Heart" to others."

"Hmm... let's go! Go and do your work!" Eus nodded and said.

He specifically mentioned this sentence, mainly because he was worried that after Hart taught "Lion Heart" to his children or apprentices, he found that the effect was mediocre, and it also delayed their best practice time.

Since Hart was so conscious, Eus had nothing to worry about.

After walking out of the room, Hart moved his body and said: "Just watching "Lion Heart" given by the Duke, I feel a ray of strength in my body.

But there is also a strange feeling, as if something is a bit out of tune with me now, unable to fully exert the full power of "Lion Heart"..."

After Jing Ying listened to it, she pondered for a moment and said, "Is it possible...you need to change to a different weapon?"
