The assets of the five families, Wang, Tian, ​​Du, Pan and Zhang, were quickly liquidated.

Money and money were copied and confiscated a total of more than 32,000 taels of silver, including 150 taels of gold, and the rest were silver and copper coins.

In addition, there are valuable items such as gold and silver jewelry, pearls, cloth, silk, silk, spices, etc., which are more than 5,000 taels in silver.

In addition, there are more than 600 stones of grain, as well as 16 stores that add up to five.

Of course, this does not include the five houses in the county town.

All the five people involved in the case, except those who were dead, were imprisoned in the county jail, which made the jail that Liu Jian had vacant after taking office suddenly filled up again, and the excess had to be imprisoned in the village camp first.

The other servants who were not involved in the case were temporarily detained in various houses, but Li Xu ordered all the children and relatives of the five families to be arrested. It would be no problem to lock them up first.

When the Ma Shuli presented the arranged list with careful hands, he saw the handsome county magistrate frowning, and a sudden heart broke out and hurriedly explained:

"Mr. County lieutenant, there is absolutely no problem with this list. All the assets of the five families in the county have been cleared out. Even the valuable jewelry such as jade pendants and rings on their children have been stripped down and counted into it. The jewelry on the women's family has been taken down and converted into it. The villain is absolutely not greedy!"

Li Xu was stunned and looked at Ma Shuli with a nervous look on his face. Unexpectedly, this guy was so amazing that he was so confiscated that he even pulled down his body. It was really a fucking talent.

However, he frowned because he thought that Ma Shuli and the others were greedy and did not dare to give them ten courage, because the soldiers in the village Yongchang camp next to him were all Li Xu's direct descendants, and there was no outsider. If these Shuli dared to have bad thoughts, they would definitely not be able to take advantage of it.

He frowned and felt that the property of these five families was not so small. At least they were all the top gentry in Sanshui County, and their family background should be very rich.

"You do your business honestly. As long as you do it well, you don't have to be greedy, and Master Ben will naturally reward you."

After receiving Li Xu's words, Ma Shuli, who was originally nervous, felt relieved and immediately smiled and said, "That's right, that's right, the villain must do his best to do his best to serve the county magistrate. Master, you are a young hero, and your future will surely be bright. The villain can follow you is the blessing of my old Ma family for eight lifetimes."

Li Xu felt strange when he heard this. What is the master’s young hero? He waved his hand and interrupted his flattery and asked casually: "Then tell me, what should I do next?"

When Ma Shuli heard this, he thought that this must be the problem of the county magistrate taking the school entrance examination, and hurriedly said: "Master, the villain thought he should immediately send someone to seize all the farms and land outside the five families. These five families have been in Sanshui County for many years and their families have absolutely solid foundations. The list is only small heads, and the big heads are all in the farms outside the city. If they go late, maybe their family will run away with gold, silver and soft materials when they get the letter."

When Li Xu heard this, he was only thinking about the property of these five families in the city, but he forgot about the property outside the city.

Although the cavalry first song was sent to Wangjiazhuang, the other four families had not sent anyone.

"Yes, you can think of this but you are doing it with your heart. Do it well and turn back and wait until the situation calms down. I will be the official who will make you a member of the house."

Li Xu drew a big cake casually, which made Ma Shuli so excited that he couldn't help but kneel down and thanked him, swearing that he would live up to the cultivation of the county magistrate.

The six houses in the county government office correspond to the six departments of the center, and the household house corresponds to the Ministry of Revenue.

The one who manages the household house is the clerk of the household house, who handles all the money and grain affairs in the county government office every day, and is a top-notch fat man in the county government office.

In the past, the housekeepers were all the confidants of the Wang Zhuanzhu, but now that the Wang Zhuanzhu has fallen, he naturally has to be replaced by another person.

Li Xu felt that the Ma Shujian became much more obedient and sensible after being cleaned up by him, so he promised him casually.

As for whether Liu Jian and the others would have any objections, he didn't think about it, and he didn't have to think about it.

With his current role and achievements, Liu Jian will definitely give him this face.

After being reminded by Ma Shuli, Li Xu asked him to find a few familiar people from the five families who were involved in the crime as guides, and took the 400 soldiers from the village camp to search the house in four teams.

Of course, the five families I went to were Li Xu's direct descendants, and none of them were brought by ordinary people.

After these arrangements were made, he handed the lists to Ma Shuli: "If there is any problem with this list, please reorganize it."

Ma Shuli was stunned and looked up at the county magistrate with a blank look on his face. He saw a handsome face that looked like a smile. Suddenly, he was blessed and nodded quickly, "It was the villain who was negligent. There were too many fallacies in this list. If the villain reorganized it, it would definitely satisfy the master."

Li Xu smiled this time and said, "Yes, it's good that you have this awareness. I saw that this list has reported at least 50% of the time. These five companies have long planned to collude with the thief army. How could they put so much property in the city? Remember to use snacks and don't make any mistakes."

Ma Shuli wiped his sweat secretly and nodded continuously and said, "Don't worry, lord, you will never make any mistakes again."

Li Xu nodded and asked again: "No one else has seen this list, right?"

"No, they all counted separately, and the villain finally sorted out and registered." Ma Shuli replied hurriedly.

Li Xu nodded and said, "That's good, I'll be relieved to do things. If something goes wrong, you know what I will do."

After saying that, he patted Ma Shuli on the shoulder and turned around and left. Ma Shuli bowed and bowed. When he got up straight, he felt his whole back was wet.

The county magistrate is only sixteen years old, but the pressure on him is much greater than that of the county master. Every time he faces him, he feels like a little sheep, facing this tiger with squinting eyes, which makes people feel very nervous.

Looking down at the list in his hand, Ma Shuli thought to himself that he must change the list until the county magistrate is satisfied, and he also had to instruct several other colleagues in charge of statistics to take care of their mouths.

Ma Shuli was not surprised at all about Li Xu's request, and he just thought it was very normal.

If Li Xu didn't do this, he would find it strange.

...

Li Xu intercepted these confiscated property and naturally used it to the base.

This first confrontation with the thief army gave him more than 8,000 experience points, and the experience points obtained from the previous slaughter of five servants to protect the hospital had exceeded 10,000 points.

This ten thousand points of experience value has met a condition for the system to upgrade from the colonial era to the fortress era.

As for the other 10,000 taels of silver, it has already been achieved.

However, Li Xu does not plan to upgrade the town center for the time being, because it is not yet time to upgrade.

He exchanged all the ten thousand experience points and the more than two thousand experience points he had accumulated before to support cards, and chose all the food support cards.

Each grain support card can provide 6,000 kilograms of grain free of charge by the hometown city, and the twelve cards add up to 72,000 kilograms of grain.

Wars will become more and more frequent in the future, and agricultural production will definitely be greatly affected. A large number of people die, labor force will drop sharply, a large number of fields will be abandoned, grain output will drop sharply, and grain prices will soar. Therefore, even if there is a large amount of silver, you may not be able to buy food.

So Li Xu's plan is to save more food and grab more gold and silver, and then use the stolen gold and silver to quickly expand the army, occupy more territory, and then recruit more farmers to farm.

Although hundreds of acres of wasteland have been reclaimed around the base, I don’t know how much the specific output will be, so I still need to accumulate more money in the early stage.

I have food in my hands, so I feel unhappy.

After exchanging the food, Li Xu wrote another letter to Tan Lun, explaining three things:

The first thing is to ask Tan Lun to prepare to build a large convoy. The function of this convoy is to carry the money, grain and other materials seized later and use them as a transport team.

Li Xu did not intend to let the farmers in the base do the big carts to form the fleet, but instead planned to directly intercept the big carts confiscated from the five families. If it was not enough, he would find a way to buy some or build some.

As for the livestock that pulls the cart, you can use the seized first. If it is not enough, you can buy it from the corral on the base.

Li Xu estimated that after chasing the house this time, his property would soar. Even if he handed over part of it to the county government, the remaining part would be enough to support consumption for a considerable period of time.

Li Xu's request is that the large fleet must have at least one hundred large cars first.

Of course, with a big car, there are still people driving. Li Xu recruited 200 farmers from the town center to work as coachmen and loaders.

We must use direct troops and be loyal and at ease.

The second thing is to ask Tan Lun to send people to build several large granaries and silver warehouses on the base. After all, more and more materials and grain will be transported to the base in the future.

In terms of specifications, Li Xu only said that the bigger the better, and let Tan Lun grasp the specifics himself.

The third thing is to expand the military camp. After all, after raiding the house this time, Li Xu is preparing to expand his army again and expand all the regular soldiers to the scale of 3,000 people.

However, we must also consider the future development situation, so Li Xu asked Tan Lun to expand according to the specifications of accommodating 5,000 people.

In this way, the two military camps can accommodate a total of 10,000 soldiers.

If there are more, the Malan Mountain base will be nowhere. After all, it is a mountainous area. It is rare to have such a large area to use as the first base.

Because of these construction tasks, Li Xu recruited hundreds of farmers and brought the total number of farmers to 1,000, so that Tan Lun would not be too short of being assigned various tasks.

In addition to these three things, Li Xu also recruited twenty Taoist priests from the already built Taoist temple, including fifty-five people from Qiandao and five from Kundao.

These Taoist priests are all versatile, know martial arts, and can also pray for others. More importantly, they understand medical skills, can treat the people in daily life, and can act as battlefield doctors in wartime.

Although being a field doctor may not be as good as a real military doctor, it is better to have one than not.

So Li Xu asked Tan Lun to send fifteen Taoist priests to find a Taoist temple in Sanshui County, which can not only soothe people's hearts, but also earn some incense money. He will play a guest role in the field doctor during the war.

As for the expansion of the army, it will only take until the confiscated five families are sent to the Malanshan base and the system will be recorded.

After writing the letter, Li Xu checked it again and there was no omission, so he sent someone to send it to the Malan Mountain base.

Now, no one can enter and exit at will without Li Xu's orders.

He is the most convenient way to enter and exit the city.
