Be a Lord in the World of Black Beasts

Chapter 130 Three Prohibition of Gambling

The first thing the patrol team did when they ran over was to salute Yi Cheng, Yi Cheng nodded, and then they stood in line with their respective teams during training, waiting for orders.

Soon, everyone who could come was there, and those who couldn't come were basically performing some important guard work and couldn't get away.

Yi Cheng looked around at his patrol team members. These policemen from different worlds are all good-looking, with strong bodies and firm faces.

"I think many of you already know what I'm going to do by asking you to gather, that's right! It's to close down the casino over there!"

"Perhaps many people will wonder why, why should the casino be closed when it is running well."

"That's because its existence will wash away your money like a vampire for no reason!"

"I know that some of you must have gambled in it, but! From today on, I hope that you will no longer touch any money-related gambling games!"

The more Yi Cheng spoke, the more excited he became, he impassionedly stood on the stones by the side of the road, and questioned everyone painfully.

"I think everyone has seen it before, that is, the scene where a family loses all their property and is forced to go home. These are not unfamiliar to you."

"There have been people like this in any city, and some even sold their daughters and wives to pay off their gambling debts!"

"This is simply a great tragedy! And have you ever thought about what kind of things will be done by those who are impatient to lose in gambling?"

Having said this, Yi Cheng suddenly changed his tone, and explained the truth in a eloquent way.

"They will desperately want to make money, but there is no start-up capital, and the wife and children have already been sold, so what should they do? The only thing to do is to rob and blackmail!"

"Everyone's family lives here, Xinri City is our hometown, do you want Xinri City to be destroyed by gambling?" Yi Cheng shouted loudly.

"I don't want to!" The patrol members immediately replied, roaring loudly.

"Very good, now everyone immediately surrounds the casino, all exits must be controlled, and the boss and waiters inside the casino must be seized."

"As for the gamblers inside, they are all handcuffed together and ready to be punished!"

Yi Cheng issued orders in an orderly manner, and the team members immediately acted according to Yi Cheng's orders.

Although it was already evening and the sky was very dark, there were still many people on the street, some of them were workers who had just got off work, and some were housewives who went out to buy vegetables.

Everyone said it was an idiot not to watch when there was excitement, and everyone gathered around and watched curiously.

When the patrol team surrounded the casino, they immediately controlled the people entering and leaving and detained them.

Then a dozen kobolds, two tall bull orcs, and a group of team members with soft sticks rushed in and began to violently arrest them.

When the patrol members yelled orders for everyone not to move and put their heads in their hands, some people were still confused about what was going on, and some even dared to resist.

However, these people were no match for the soft sticks of the patrols and the fists of the bull orcs.

The resistance forces were swept away, and soon the patrols began to escort the detained gamblers outside.

Many of them came out and saw a large group of onlookers pointing at them outside, and they immediately lost their minds.

Obviously, they also know that gambling is a disgraceful thing.

The entire arresting work lasted for a full half an hour, and all the gamblers, casino staff and bosses were caught.

The owner of the casino is a sharp-mouthed monkey-cheeked businessman. He doesn't look like a local, he should be a businessman from other places.

Yicheng's Xinri City allows merchants to buy facades for commercial purposes, but all shops in the scope of business must have a ledger with detailed income and expenditure for tax collection.

When the businessman saw Yi Cheng, he immediately ran over pinching his face.

"My lord, what are you doing? This is a serious business, and we have not violated the rules of New Sun City!" The businessman was very cunning.

He knew that Yi Cheng had never issued a law prohibiting gambling, so he dared to say that he was innocent.

Yi Cheng glanced at him sideways, this kind of jumping clown just likes to show off his little cleverness.

Yi Cheng said slowly: "I received a report from an informant that your casino is suspected of tax evasion, which is a felony in Xinri City, don't you know?"

"I..." The businessman was immediately speechless.

He had no way to refute Yi Cheng's words. First of all, he did evade taxes. He opened a casino.

Everyone has been doing this for a long time, so many gamblers come to the door every day, there are a few coppers and silver coins, and there are also gold coins.

Can't you keep accounts one by one?There will be too many people just to record.

That's why Yi Cheng's words hit him in the dark. Yi Cheng sneered and stopped talking to him, but a big trial came on the spot in front of all the people.

First of all, Yi Cheng defined gamblers as a crime that does not exist for the time being, and used moral constraints, because it was only now that the prohibition of gambling was announced.

So Yicheng couldn't convict them, but Yicheng made them stand in a row in front of the public, letting them enjoy the feeling of being pointed at the spine by everyone.

There is no doubt that the masses have the same view on gambling, so even gambling ghosts are not good things.

When Yi Cheng asked them one by one why they gambled, most of them answered that they had nothing to do after get off work and had no other entertainment except bragging, so they went to the casino to play.

Yi Cheng's heart was shocked. It was true that he hadn't considered it carefully. When the living standards of the people improve, the corresponding spiritual construction will also be satisfied.

Although New Sun City has flourished industrially, it lacks entertainment items to alleviate everyone's mental fatigue.

Yi Cheng kept this in mind and prepared to use it for the next stage of construction.

Yi Cheng left these gamblers out for a while and let each of them swear in front of everyone that they would never gamble again and let them go.

As for the staff of the casino, they were detained for half a month and fined ten silver coins.

As for the owner of the casino, his name is Jia Derui, he is an out-and-out speculator, seeing that there is no casino in New Sun City, he thought this is where he made his fortune.

Yi Cheng mercilessly confiscated all his property and imprisoned him for one year. After one year, he will be kicked out of Xinri City, and he will never be allowed to come back again.

Of course, the crime was tax evasion, and Yi Cheng had plenty of ways to deal with those who thought they were smart.

Author's message:

Chapter 130 Four mua~

The casino incident can be regarded as a big news in New Sun City. Because of the lack of entertainment items, this not-so-big matter was discussed as gossip for several days.

Today's weather is a bit unusual, because the heavy snow that has been flying has stopped in the middle of the night, but there is still a thick layer of dark clouds in the sky, and it seems that it is just a short rest.

Maria ran over to Yi Cheng yesterday and told Yi Cheng that the church was still discussing how to deal with the evil gods, and the cardinals had been discussing for several days, but nothing came out.

The main reason is that today is different from the past, the foundation of the church is weak, and now there are no usable city-destroying mages, and it may be difficult to rely on the magisters alone.

Another major event is that Supernova City has completely fallen, and the city lord Salah was hanged at the gate of the city by Walter.

Perhaps in retaliation for the great enemy who lost an arm, the Black Beast Mercenary Group reveled in the city for three whole days, and the originally prosperous commercial city had turned into a purgatory on earth.

Almost all those who could run away ran away, and those who couldn't run away could only bear it silently.

After the carnival, the Black Beast Mercenary Group began to recruit people, and the conditions were very generous. According to the refugees who defected, we can know that many young people chose to join.

This is obviously not a good thing. Usually the purpose of military expansion is to fight, and it is impossible to keep it for a while.

Yi Cheng also felt the pressure. After all, the Black Beast Mercenary Corps already has tens of thousands of people, and if it expands, it will probably reach the level of [-].

Therefore, Yi Cheng stepped up the construction of weapons, and began to build fortresses on all the main roads leading to Xinri City. In addition, the newly manufactured heavy machine guns were also transported there one after another.

As long as you want to pass these roads, you must be prepared to leave a large number of corpses behind.

And the construction of artillery is getting faster and faster. Thanks to the help of the dark elves, Orika transported almost [-] non-attribute mages.

Moreover, most of the mages are above the intermediate level, and there are not a few senior mages, about 40 of them, and there is also a magician.

The most frightening thing is that these are only a small part of the black stone castle mage brigade, because the vast majority of dark elf mages are mages with dark or blood attributes.

The number of mages in Blackstone Castle has a lot to do with the race of dark elves. In other words, elves are the darlings of magic, and they are almost born with magic affinity.

In terms of talent, humans can't keep up even if they flatter their horses. The elves can almost achieve the level of mass-produced mages.

After these non-attribute dark elf mages were screened, those who voluntarily changed their mana to metal were left behind.

In fact, it's not that mages with other attributes cannot use spells from other departments, but the effect will be greatly reduced. For the sake of efficiency, only people with metal magic power can be competent for the work of making metal products.

In the next few days, Sherlock, as their leader, began to teach them the two magics of metal shaping and metal refining.

After a few days of training, almost all dark elf mages have mastered these two magics, and they are ready to be put into production.

The subsequent production was much simpler. The speed at which the more than 200 mages left behind started manufacturing was a bit touching, and sometimes it took a whole day to manufacture a spring.

But slowly, this speed is accelerating. Hundreds of firearms are almost out of the factory every hour. According to this speed, the order of the Illuminati Church can be completed in about ten days at most.

At noon, Sherlock quickly ran back home after inspecting the work of the elf mages, because Yi Cheng was resting at home today, and all the official duties were handed over to the people in the city hall below.

Chloe stayed in Yi Cheng's room all night last night, and left early this morning. According to Sherlock's observation, Chloe won't show up for the next day.

This is just a good opportunity to pester Yi Cheng. As a qualified third party, one needs to learn how to fit in every stitch. How can you have a child if you don't work hard?

After Sherlock opened the door of the house, he quietly ran up to the second floor, gently opened Yi Cheng's door and saw that Yi Cheng was sitting in front of the table by the window, writing and drawing something.

Sherlock scanned the house carefully, but there was no one else.

Sherlock was overjoyed, tiptoed and touched Yi Cheng's back quietly, then covered Yi Cheng's eyes.

"Robbery, robbery! Take off your pants quickly." Sherlock shouted in a muffled voice, pretending to be thick.

"Don't make trouble, let's get down to business." Yi Cheng patted Sherlock's hand and said softly.

"Ah~ boring." Sherlock pouted and let go, then found a chair and sat beside Yi Cheng, watching him draw.

"What is this, why is it round like a bird's nest?" Sherlock couldn't help asking when he watched Yi Cheng outline a messy bird's nest with lines.

"This is the theater I designed. After the theater is built, you can enjoy the performance." Yi Cheng brazenly copied the design of the bird's nest.

Yi Cheng plans to build a smaller version of the bird's nest, which is large enough to accommodate more than a thousand people. In the future, not only drama performances can be held in it, but also sports games can be held.

Hearing Yi Cheng's thoughts, Sherlock's eyes lit up, and he immediately asked excitedly: "Really? Then can I go and see it every day?"

Sherlock still remembered that when he was in class at the Academy of Magic, the academy held a drama performance. It was a comedy performance, and Sherlock remembered that he was happy for a long time.

"Okay, who told you that you are my right-hand man, you can look at it however you want." Yi Cheng grinned.

"Thank you, it's very kind of you." Sherlock kissed Yi Cheng's face reluctantly.

"You're welcome, you're not bad either." Yi Cheng also licked Sherlock's lips, and Sherlock's eyes turned into crescent moons with joy.

"By the way, how fast is the production speed of munitions now?" Yi Cheng asked, he had some thoughts in his mind.

That's what Yi Cheng felt would continue to happen in the history that didn't happen, although Blackstone Fort was taken back with his efforts, and he successfully prevented Walter from attacking the Seven Shields.
