Li Guanqi pointed to the black official robe on her body, "You are the county boss, Liangzi! You must always remember that these two words do not only represent obligations. It not only means that you need to benefit the people, but also represents the official status.

authority!

After the Kitamura family was finished, the palace needed to support another local family to compete with the Minos family of orcs.

Support means allocating resources.

The question is, which family to support?

The Kawashima family has the most hope.

But the final decision lies with you, the county leader.

Just like Anno Prefecture next door 52 years ago.

It is up to the head of Anno County to decide which family to support in the end.

Only the county head can choose which family to support.

Therefore, the Kawashima family will definitely come to kneel and lick you, and gain your support at the cost of obeying your orders in Wenshui County from now on, so that you can choose the Kawashima family to receive support from above.

besides.

After the Kitamura family falls, their original territory, business and other resources will all be redistributed by you.

It's like dividing a cake.

In this case, not only the Kawashima family, but also all other families, including the Minos family, will try to please you, the cake cutter, in order to share more of the cake.

But here’s the point, you can’t divide this cake all at once.

Once you finish sharing and others are full, who will care about you?

but.

As long as the cake is not divided in one day, those who want to eat the cake will have to hold you for the whole day, because you are the one holding the knife.

By that time, you will be the real ruler in Wenshui County, and whatever you want to do can be done with just one sentence.

If these families want to gain more benefits from you, they must obey your orders.

This is what power feels like, Ryoko."

Li Guanqi looked at Takeda Ryoko and said with a smile: "That's why I say that by then, you, the county head, will be able to show your taste."

"this……"

Takeda Ryoko was slightly stunned, "So we can shelve all our follow-up plans because they are no longer needed? After completing this first step, each family will lose trust in the Kitamura family, and then they will join forces to report the Kitamura family, and then we can completely

Success?"

"Yes."

Li Guanqi nodded.

So thinking about it this way, the difficulty of the place that Takeda Ryoko and her great-grandfather chose for her is really very low, and it couldn't be any lower.

It's a pity that this woman's sensitivity to "rights" is too slow.

"One word and nine cauldrons..."

Takeda Ryoko blinked and could not recover for a long time, "After all the families jointly report the Kitamura family and bring about their downfall, I will become the real county head who sticks to his word? Because I hold the right to divide resources, so the county's

All the families have to listen to me? Is this... the taste of power? "

"Um?"

But at this time, Li Guanqi suddenly frowned.

Something's wrong.

I was so happy just now that I didn't think clearly.

Now think about it carefully, if all the families could compile a complete chain of evidence by jointly reporting, then why didn't they do this a hundred years ago when they were about to be annexed by the Kitamura family?

Could it be that the Kitamura family was so clean that even hundreds of families in the county couldn't gather a piece of criminal evidence together?

So, the evidence is incomplete?

Is he happy for nothing?

"Bang bang bang."

At this time, there was suddenly a sound of running footsteps of guards and the sound of armor and stomach collision coming from outside the door.

The soundproofing array of Takeda Ryoko's room is to isolate the outside but not the inside. Sounds from inside cannot be transmitted out, but sounds from outside can be transmitted in.

Because of this, the guard outside the door came over to report:

"My lord, the head of the Kawashima family wants to see you!"

"Um?"

Takeda Ryoko was stunned, "Master Kawashima? Why did he come to me?"

"ha."

Li Guanqi smiled.

It seems that the happiness was not in vain.

No wonder a hundred years ago, various families didn't... No, it's not that they didn't do it, but they did it, but failed.

If he guessed correctly, the chain of evidence put together by various families in the county should be missing some part.

Only the county leader can help fill in this missing piece of evidence.

Therefore, the current head of the Kawashima family should have come here just for this matter, and expressed his loyalty to Takeda Ryoko by the way.

So what kind of evidence does the county leader need to help with?

"Let him in, Liangzi."

Li Guanqi stood up and walked to the corner. At the same time, he used the transformation technique to take on the appearance of a stranger and stood there like a guard. "If you need it later, I will teach you how to do it through soul transmission."

Talking."

"good."

Takeda Ryoko nodded, then sat behind the desk and raised his hand to press a small fox wooden base.

As she pressed, blue light flickered slightly under the withered fox wood base, spreading throughout the study room in an instant.

At the same time, she also spoke calmly: "Let the head of the Kawashima family come in."

This study room is equipped with a soundproof array, so the sound inside cannot be transmitted out.

Because of this, if Takeda Ryoko wanted to talk to the person guarding the door, he would naturally have to use this device to temporarily turn off the sound isolation array.

As for the situation where an assassin suddenly appears in the room and she needs to shout for the guards, but the sound cannot be transmitted?

It basically does not appear in the weird world.

Because in most cases, if Takeda Ryoko cannot deal with the enemy, there is no point in having the guards outside the door come in.

After all, in the extraordinary world view of the strange world, the higher the status of a person, the higher his individual combat power.

Many times, guards are actually just decorations on the card.

Of course, there must be guards who are stronger than his master, but such guards usually do not guard outside the door, but always stay by the master's side - similar to Li Guanqi who is standing in the corner at this time.

"Squeak——"

At this time, the door to the study room was slowly pushed open by the guard.

A young man wearing a white kimono walked in.

This man with quite a "cream scholar" temperament has a gentle smile, and his handsome face is even more contagious because of this smile. Especially his pair of bright star eyes, which give people an extremely profound feeling.

impression.

After the head of the Kawashima family entered the door, he quickly spotted Li Guanqi standing in the corner.

His heart trembled.

His sixth-level spirit-detecting magic weapon didn't respond, and he couldn't tell the man's martial arts cultivation.

Didn't it mean that when the Takeda family sent down family members for assessment, they never sent additional family guards?

Forget it, that's not the point.

The head of the Kawashima family calmed down, looked at Takeda Ryoko behind the desk, and bowed to her respectfully.

"Let's meet the Lord of the County at Ryunosuke, Shimokawa Island."

"..."

Takeda Ryoko did not speak, but glanced at the guard outside the door, and then waved his hand to signal the other person to close the door.

The guard lowered his head and closed the door.

"Bang."

As the study door is re-closed, the soundproofing shield in this room also takes effect again.
To be continued...
