335 Anxious People

In the eyes of the piercing lord Audrey, the orcs' military strike against the Phoenix King was definitely a super failure.

The orcs may not have a better choice, but because their actions affected the lives of the people in Pang Xuncheng, it would be good if they didn't ask them for compensation, but they dared to ask her for money at her door!

The only one who was so powerful was not only the Puncture Lord, because the one who was greatly affected was also the Lord of Nan Pangxun City on the south bank.

Maybe I felt that the negotiations had been completed and others would not hinder it. The orcs were not slow to move. The first group of people went ashore to camp for five days.

The railway has stopped at this time.

The railway was also built outside the city, and the station was only two kilometers away from the sub-port. This was because Audrey didn't trust the Phoenix King at the time and stripped the sub-port to facilitate the loading of goods. The space left was mainly for the expansion of ports and station freight yards and some new workshops.

Outside Pangxun City was not a plain but a hilly area. The army was too large to have no place to station, so the orcs directly occupied the railway station when they came up.

This railway station has not been built for a year, but because it is close to Luna River, it has become the trading center of east-west, south-west and north. The south-west cargo is loaded directly at the sub-port and crossed the river, distributed from South Pangxun City to various places to the south. Some of the cargo is directly digested in Pangxun City, and some of the cargo needs to be loaded and unloaded from the main port.

Not only the goods from the Phoenix Kingdom have to go out here, but there are also many raw materials, fabrics, handicrafts, meat products, etc. outside, from here to the north, not only the Phoenix Kingdom, but also inland cities such as Blackwater and Elte and their areas closer to the east.

Anyway, no matter how the goods flow, everyone now relies heavily on the advantages of low-cost and rapid transportation of railways, which has reduced the cost of living for ordinary people in the entire area.

Although many lords don’t know how to improve the living standards of ordinary people at all, and there are many who are unwilling to care about it at all, this is the benefit obtained through the activities of merchants. Even if the lord is stupid, he knows that people’s lives are better, which means he can pay more taxes.

So as soon as the railway stopped, things immediately went big.

The day before Audrey ordered the person to be hung up, Estel, the chief manager of Blackwater City, came to the door.

Of course, he already knew what was going on when he saw the situation outside the city, but he was anxious.

Blackwater City is not as good as the Phoenix Kingdom, but it also has industries. Their iron needs to be reached by railway to the Luna River and sold further south.

"The Legend of Fairy Wood"

What the big guys are anxious about is that commodities cannot be sold, while the little guys immediately have to face the situation of soaring commodity prices and plummeting products in their hands. The lord of Nan Pang Xun City represents this group of people, and also crosses the river to the north bank to stare, hoping to restore the railway function as soon as possible. The Phoenix Kingdom may be out of salvation, but at least the section from Black Water to Pang Xun must be restored.

It was only at this time that Audrey realized that she had previously worried about the Phoenix King. With the current influence of the Phoenix Kingdom, she was afraid that as long as the Phoenix King was willing to pay some money, she ordered these orcs to be trapped on the shore.

Because everyone was a little anxious, Audrey also burned her head and told someone to kill a few orcs who were in trouble in the city.

It was obvious that it was a bad move. The Hei Shui General Manager and Nan Pangxun's lord quickly ran away to separate his relationship.

But after observing for a day, I found that the orcs were also considerate.

Audrey summarized her own advantages. Nothing else, just one Seven-Star Assassin is enough. As long as she has this ability, it is very easy for her to be a lord wherever she wants to be.

If things really go to the worst direction, then the third prince of the orc would be cut off and run away.

If you have confidence, you won’t be polite to say it.

"Toll is toll, not money to let orcs come to the city to scatter wild money!" Audrey ordered the maid, "Safely increase the patrol density across the city, and when you see orcs' life, you will double the torture according to our rules."

Pang Xun has very few rules, just two counts of murder and rape. In fact, rape is not considered a felony in many places, but Audrey is also a woman after all, so she will take special care of her.

Although there are only two serious crimes, there are not many people who want to be whipped. It is not to cause trouble for oneself, but to leave the punishment to a large household to do too ugly and damage the majesty of the lord.

Once you are whipped, whether a person dies depends on the meaning of the chief official.

If a person who cannot enchant himself, ten whips can make him survive the third day. Thirty whips can be killed on the spot, and then there will be no human form. Even if he encloses a demon and replaces a more powerful executioner, the result will be almost the same.

Audrey said that doubled the weight, which obviously made her heart kill the orcs who were making trouble.

The handmaid Carmelia sighed: "Sir, war will eventually die. If the orcs are forced into anger, at least one-third of the population in this city will become slaves."

Audrey is sometimes very stubborn, but occasionally she can listen to a few words, such as now.

“…Then let’s keep a breath.”

I made a decision, but unfortunately, a group of orcs who went to the city to seek revenge killed people again.

If I didn't see it, it would be fine. Cameria happened to meet it on the way to inform the lords. If this was light, it would be impossible to explain it to the adults, so this group of people would hang the door again.

Then we waited for the orcs' formal mission.

Audrey's lord was casual and didn't think there was any difference between a formal mission and a single mission. Anyway, just say, get out of here and don't make trouble in the city.

But things are not so easy to understand. If she doesn't give any explanation, where will Upphap's face be placed? If she leaves directly, can she still command the army?

In order to avoid the trouble of his own adults, the worried maid came up with a good reason to persuade him: "Sir, have you cut the artificial gems given by the Phoenix King into the crown and arm ring? Just get some scraps and send them away. If you drag this way, the people in the city will not be able to survive."

"What does it have to do with the people? He obviously dared not attack the city."

"Because grain production is reduced in various places, the food prices are quite high now, and many people rely on the cheaper sugar in the Phoenix Kingdom to maintain it. Now the railway line is broken, no sugar comes in, and the food prices are rising again, and some people are already hungry."

Before the big collision, the entire Luna River had a hot climate of hundreds of kilometers north and south. When the temperature was a little lower, it could reach about twenty-eight degrees. The climate determined that there were sugar-producing crops in the area. Although they were not cheap enough, they still had a sense of the effect of sugar. Therefore, in order to maintain physical fitness and make money through work at any time when you are hungry, everyone will try to save some sugar when they have spare money, and those who are richer will eat it as snacks.

"This..." Audrey hesitated. It was not that she didn't care about the people, but she had no choice but to let the orc go easily, but she had other worries. "Can the Phoenix King resist it now?"

The girl lowered her head and rolled her eyes without letting her see: "You are too worried. The Phoenix King may have received the news at the same time as you. On the day the orcs came ashore, there was no steaming bus at the railway station."

It is anyone who can tell that although the railway is a money-lossing thing, the steam locomotive is a real money printing machine. After inquiring, it is very exaggerated to know that the cost of this thing is very exaggerated. It is considered a loss of money when it can be used. It is obvious that I don’t leave the car suddenly and I know something.

"Then... let it go?"
