Chapter 54

"Sir, are you sure you'll be able to bring back the fifth woman?" Housekeeper Hong asked after Housekeeper Mo was sent to rest. Housekeeper Hong, Captain Hui, and the other sisters-in-law stayed to discuss and see if Xiao Yu's plan could be implemented.

"Yes. If she does not return then she will marry into another family.” Suesha was the one who was most reluctant to let Siwen go.

Xiao Yu sat in his chair and leisurely drank from the wine glass. He narrowed his eyes: “I said I would do it! I said I'd protect the city but you said I wouldn't be able to fight Carrie. What happened in the end?”

Everyone saw Xiao Yu's confident posture. Recently, Xiao Yu had done many seemingly impossible things. Perhaps, Xiao Yu could still perform this seemingly impossible task.

In the past Lion city and the surrounding region could not be protected by the Xiao family. It felt as if their city would be destroyed at any time. However, it was completely different now. The city is experiencing rapid development. Moreover, Xiao Yu led an army of orcs and elves and could suppress the Wang family if they did not wish to hand over Siwen. They saw that Xiao Yu dared to challenge the Wang family so he should have some sort of backup plan.

Therefore, the people from the Lion town started to prepare to send Xiao Yu and Siwen.

Xiao Yu had asked to leave after ten days because he had many things to consider before moving on. His territory is only in the early stages of development and there are many things he has to take care of. She believes that Carrie's father will come for revenge in a short period of time, but she must take precautions.

Moreover, the three races would not follow the command line if Xiao Yu left. He had to think of a new policy he had to implement to attract people to his territory.

The Wang family's territory was about 2000 miles away from the Lion town. There were no airplanes, trains, or cars so they took about a month to commute. It would be normal to spend a month there. It meant that Xiao Yu would leave the Lion city for two months.

She spoke with Housekeeper Hong and Captain Hui about the implementation of her policies regarding farmers and the recruitment of farmers from adjacent territories.

He planned to draw the population from everywhere. Due to past wars, the biggest problem facing its territory was the population. Xiao Yu had destroyed some of the bandit camps and moved the residents. However, its population is still less than 50000.

The main policies that Xiao Yu brought were tax deductions and tax exemptions. Xiao Yu had ordered Housekeeper Hong to send people to the nearby region to whisper into the ears of others about the tax deduction and tax exemption of Lion town. All new immigrants will get a tax deduction for three years. They can move to any place within that region and start growing crops in the soil. In this way they will be exempt from tax for the next five years. They would get everything they planted and Xiao Yu would not ask for even a single grain.

In this era, people or civilians did not own land. All the land belonged to the nobles and nobles. In order to plant and grow crops, the farmers had to borrow land from Xiao Yu. In short, they were the tenants of Xiao Yu. Now, Xiao Yu gave them the right to use the land for free for the next five years which was an incredible policy. Privatization of land has not occurred in this era so that it attracted the attention of many parties.

The Northwest is barren land but that does not mean that growing a corps is impossible. It was just that the results were worse compared to the rich southern regions. However, with Xiao Yu's method, the farmers would own the land and would not give any taxes which meant that every grain was theirs and the rate of return was higher than in the southern region. Xiao Yu was a modern man and knew that the development of society would take a lot of time.

He realized that privatization of land was an inevitable historical journey. However, it was not something that could be implemented overnight. She planned to follow Shang Yang's reforms regarding rice fields and so on but Housekeeper Hong was against it. Therefore, they had long been at odds. Housekeeper Hong believed that all the land belonged to nobles. How can they let farmers use it for free?

Especially with the implementation of this policy, people who had joined the bandit group began to return again and some had just come to evacuate. In the past month, the population of the Lion town increased by 10,000 people.

Xiao Yu ordered Housekeeper Hong to continue expanding the cultivation of the land using this policy. He knew that with the farmer he would have food. This way he could support the army, attract blacksmiths, craftsmen, and others.

Housekeeper Hong gradually loosened the implementation of Xiao Yu's policies as he saw more and more people coming to join their territory. Nevertheless, the land would return to Xiao Yu in five short years.

Moreover, Xiao Yu was planning to disturb the citizens of Carrie's father's territory.

He had sent ghosts to roam the mountains and kill creatures. Arthas had reached level 4 all along. Xiao Yu planned to use Death Knight Arthas and ghouls to enter the villages and towns by the Kingdom of David to harass the citizens. He wanted to make sure that Carrie's territory was shrouded in fear and chaos.

Moreover, Xiao Yu had arranged the defense for the Lion town. Xiao Yu knew that his army was strong but they could not act independently. They all had to rely on Xiao Yu's orders. As a result, he decided to develop a hero who could lead an army while he was gone. He wants a hero with intelligence who can plan, decide, and implement tactics and strategies.

Xiao Yu knew that he would experience many wars in the future. However, he could not be everywhere so he had to rely on the hero to work independently from him. The first hero he focused on was Thrall.

Thrall was a leader and chieftain of the Orcs. He was born with the temperament of a king and the talent of a leader. Xiao Yu honed his skills and explained the basic skills about management.

Xiao Yu had spent most of his time playing games at the university. Because of this, he was sent to a compulsory management class by the dorm administration. That's why he took some basic management courses.

Thrall is a fast learner. In a short period of time, he was able to establish himself as the leader of the orc army.

Grom is a strong hero but not a leader type. However, it was easy for Thrall to become one. He is indeed the king of the Orc.

Xiao Yu ordered Thrall to lead the army and help Captain Hui if anyone else attacked the city. In the case of peace, Thrall could take soldiers and rob the bandit camp.

After finishing the main arrangement, Xiao Yu brought Arthas, dozens of ghouls and some Shades to go to Carrie's father's territory.

Shades are invisible units and incredible scouts. Xiao Yu knew that his strength was weak so he got a little protection as a scout if the troops from Carrie's father's territory came.
