Faced with the regular army that descended from the sky, the Opium Family was powerless to fight back.
Although they have disregarded life and death since they entered this industry and have a group of desperate criminals under their command, the gap in combat effectiveness is like a natural chasm and cannot be made up by not being afraid of death.
The powerful firepower coverage made them unable to lift their heads.
An important member of the family wanted to escape through the secret passage, but as soon as he showed his head, he was caught by a master who had been waiting for a long time.
No matter whether those people fought desperately or threw away their weapons and begged, they could not escape the fate of being killed on the spot.
The people from the National Security Bureau are good in martial arts, but after all, there are too few of them. It is not realistic to capture them alive, and there is no point in keeping them alive.
Their crimes are too numerous to list, and they will still be executed after trial. The new government is short of staff and has no time to waste on these scum.
One hundred thousand troops acted simultaneously and attacked in multiple locations, wiping out all drug-making groups in Annan within one day and confiscating a large amount of weapons and wealth.
All finished and semi-finished opium were gathered together and burned on the spot.
There were also poppies all over the mountains, all burned to ashes by a huge fire.
The nearby farmers who helped the opium family grow poppies were in a panic. They closed their doors and dared not come out, for fear that the army would liquidate them.
"Don't disturb the residents. They are forced to do so."
These farmers are only responsible for planting to make a living. There is no need to make things difficult for them.
After completing their missions, the garrison troops from various places continued to garrison in their original locations. Zhao Changzhi led the capital's security division and the confiscated spoils back to the capital to report.
Xiao Fuxing was very excited when he saw the soldiers carrying boxes of gold, silver, jewelry and a large amount of US dollars from the cars.
These riches are the capital and confidence for him to vigorously develop Annan.
Yang Baiyi came to the Food Administration Bureau in Annan. There was still a lot of food piled up in the huge warehouse, and the words "donated by the Celestial Empire" were clearly printed on the sacks.
When Ruan Bochao committed atrocities and launched a surprise attack on the southern border of the Celestial Empire, it was no wonder that the entire Celestial Empire was angry. Anyone who encountered such an ungrateful person would be unable to hold back their anger.
After finding an empty warehouse, Yang Baiyi directly released the inventory from his previous life, releasing 100,000 tons of rice and 100,000 tons of flour each.
After leaving the Grain Bureau and returning to the Governor's Mansion, Yang Baiyi issued the first Governor's Order.
"Annan wants to build an Angui Highway and an Angui Railway, and needs to recruit a large number of workers. Each worker can receive a monthly salary of 15 yuan in Tianchao currency, or 100 kilograms of fine grain."
The official seal was affixed below and sent to various places in Annan.
The Governor's Office required local government agencies to recruit workers nearby in counties and cities and build all roads in the territory.
At that time, Annan was relatively backward, and it was not realistic to rely on sea transportation because there were no cruise ships that large enough. It was more reliable to rely on rail and road transportation.
If you want to get rich, you must first build roads. Only when the roads are built can the fruits in the mountains be transported out and exchanged for money.
Watching the rice and flour being transported to various places in Annan in truckloads, as if they would never be finished, Xiao Fuxing did not ask much about this obviously abnormal thing.
He Wei, the cadre in charge of Annan's food reserves and the grandson of the commander of the Xuanwu Legion, came over in a panic.
"Deputy Governor, I've failed in my duty. There's a lot of extra food in the warehouse. I asked around, but no one knows where it came from."
When he took office, Xiao Fuxing handed him the register of grain reserves, and he checked it carefully and found no problems.
Seeing the food being taken away in trucks one by one, He Wei became a little restless. The capital's grain reserves were not much, and if they continued like this, the capital's food supply would not be able to keep up.
He took his men to the warehouse to see how much food was left. If it exceeded the red line, he would report it to the higher authorities.
When we arrived at the storage area, we saw large trucks coming in and out, all pulling grain out of warehouses No. 5 and No. 6.
This made He Wei a little puzzled. The last time he came to take inventory, only Warehouse No. 1 and No. 2 had reserve grain. Where did the grain in Warehouse No. 5 and No. 6 come from?
He Wei called the warehouse manager and asked when the grain was delivered.
As the head of the Grain Bureau, He Wei was extremely angry that no one had informed him about such a big matter as the grain storage.
As a result, the warehouse managers were also confused and claimed that apart from the governor, no one else had come, and they didn't know where the food came from.
After realizing that something was unusual, He Wei hurriedly found Xiao Fuxing.
As the deputy governor of Annan, he certainly knew how much food reserves the Food Bureau had. This extra food should have been obtained by his eldest nephew.
"I'll ask the Governor-General about this matter. You can go ahead and do your work. By the way, keep this matter confidential for now. Don't let anyone else know."
If it were in the past, the problem reported by He Wei would definitely be a big deal, but now, Xiao Fuxing remained calm.
My nephew is such a great man that he can even control heavenly punishment, so what’s the big deal about him conjuring some food out of thin air?
As the time spent with Yang Baiyi increased, the family members became more and more resilient and became more and more accepting of unreasonable things.
"Well, Deputy Governor, I'll be off to my work now."
He Wei walked out of the Governor's Mansion with confidence.
The Governor personally stored the grain in the warehouse, and the Deputy Governor said that he didn't need to take care of it, so he didn't have to take care of it.
What he wanted was never an answer, but to let his leaders know that his work was very meticulous and not to blame him for dereliction of duty.
With money and food, the road construction in Annan was very fast. Roads were built through mountains and bridges were built over rivers. As long as there was food, the people had endless energy.
Railways were not developed as fast because they required a large amount of rails, and Annan's steel output could not keep up.
This was not a problem for Yang Baiyi, so he directly sent two young men from the capital back to Beijing to discuss the matter with their parents.
Two young men in their twenties, one was appointed by Yang Baiyi as the Minister of Annan’s Ministry of Transport and the other as the Minister of Railways.
No matter how big Annan is, at least it is prestigious to call it by its official title.
The two young cadres were full of confidence and enthusiasm. This was the first important task assigned to them by the Governor since they took office, and they must do it well.
As officials, they are committed to benefiting the people and they want to strive for the greatest policy support for Annan.
After arriving in the capital, they first went back home and each went to their grandfather to explain the situation. What could the two old men do? They had to fully support their grandson's work.
The next day, in the same conference room, the two young men attended a meeting for the first time to discuss supporting Annan in building a railway.
After several old family heads discussed it, they quickly passed Annan's proposal.
Now that Annan has returned, the road should at least be repaired to strengthen the connection between the two places.
