Six days later, after an extremely rigorous selection, 3,000 able-bodied laborers and hundreds of craftsmen were sent to the north of the city to begin the reconstruction of the north city and the slums.

Those who were not chosen hung their heads in despair, and some even wept profusely.

However, this sluggish mood did not last long, and the city lord's mansion once again posted a recruitment notice.

"The lord wants to reclaim the wasteland outside the city, and now he is recruiting manpower, and all those who participate in the reclamation will be given five acres of fertile land, and they will be exempt from tax for three years, and they will be able to eat and live during the reclamation period. ”

"Outside the city, there are a lot of demons there!" "The lord will send knights to patrol day and night, and at the same time arrange for guards to protect them twenty-four hours a day. "Cut, it sounds good, but it's actually an overseer. ”

"Anyway, as long as they are not afraid of death, they are not afraid of old age. "Five acres of fertile land is enough to feed several people. "The lord only recruited two thousand people, and it is estimated that there will be no drama if it is too late. "Only two thousand, why didn't you say it earlier?"

So the town hall, which had been quiet for a few days, was lively again, and the staff were almost crying without tears, they had not had a serious rest for several days.

Heidi was still standing on the second floor of the Lord's Mansion, still in that position, still looking at the crowded town hall, and after a long time, she said, "I think you are more like a lord than I am." ”

Renard was holding a pen and writing something on the paper, and said without raising his head: "I don't want to be a lord, it's good to hide behind the scenes and be a mysterious person who gives advice." ”

As he spoke, he seemed to remember something, and took out ten magic crystal cards from the space ring: "This is my latest dividend, you use it first, and then recruit two thousand strong laborers to build the northern city, and find some craftsmen to repair the city wall, and clean up the moat." ”

Heidi looked at the magic crystal card on the table, and her performance was not as surprised as before, she only wanted to know what the other party was doing in Constantinople, was it a slave trade?

Immediately afterwards, she noticed the content of the notice written by Lei Ye.

Heidi covered her mouth in surprise: "Reorganize the army?"

Renard nodded, and said very seriously: "That's right, I have calculated in detail, the Black Cavalry now has two hundred and forty-eight people, and there are three hundred and eighty-six ordinary guards, and the average combat power of the Black Cavalry is a high-level martial artist, and the ordinary guards are only middle-level martial artists." ”

He knocked on the table: "They have no problem maintaining the stability of the territory in normal times, if the demon disaster breaks out, it is more than enough to stick to the city of abundance, but places like Tulip Town must be abandoned." ”

Heidi's face was a little ugly, because she knew the truth of what the other party said.

Renard spread his hands: "Therefore, it is imperative to reorganize the army, I will organize all the soldiers with the strength of high-level warriors into your black cavalry army, and equip all the members of the black cavalry with war horses, and build them into real cavalry worthy of the city's name." ”

Heidi's eyes widened when she heard this, and she was a little incredulous: "How many high-level martial artists do you have as servants?"

Renard glanced at the system and said, "For the time being, there are only one hundred and twenty-seven people, and I believe there will be more in the future." ”

Heidi roughly calculated: "There are three hundred and seventy-five people in total, and you want to equip each of them with war horses?"

Renard nodded: "Not only the war horses, but also the relative equipment, I plan to build a heavy cavalry squadron first, and the other members of the black cavalry are temporarily used as light cavalry, and the ordinary guards are all scattered to various villages and towns to be responsible for guarding the work." ”

He unfolded the map as he spoke: "In addition to the City of Plenty, there are six villages and towns in the territory, only the village of Siye is far away, and the other villages and towns are no more than seven kilometers away from the City of Plenty. ”

He drew a circle in the village: "Now Grace is guarding there with hundreds of people, we don't have to worry about the safety of the village at all, so we just need to protect the other five villages and towns." ”

"We will scatter these three hundred and eighty-six men and place them in our own villages, so that when the demons attack, they will resist desperately and buy time for our cavalry to come to the rescue. ”

Heidi was secretly frightened, and she was silent for a long time before asking, "Do you think things will go like that?"

Renard paused for a moment, then nodded solemnly: "I not only want to reorganize these people, but also recruit more soldiers." ”

Heidi couldn't help but laugh a little: "Do you know how much money and food it costs to feed so many troops, do you know how much equipment you need, and do you have war horses?"

Renard pondered for a moment, then smiled, "Do you believe me if I say yes?"

Heidi has suffered a loss, and this time it is a long memory.

She thought about it for a long time, and was just about to answer, when she saw two guards suddenly running downstairs, and seeing their anxious appearance, it seemed that something big had happened.

The two of them rushed into Heidi's office, and before they could catch their breath, they said anxiously: "Lord Earl, there are many carriages from the east side of the city, carrying a lot of goods. ”

A secret smile appeared on Renard's face, he leaned back on the sofa and said, "I gave you the money, now the food is available, the equipment is here, and the war horses have arrived." ”

Heidi's expression was extremely stunned, and at the same time a little lucky, otherwise she didn't know what she would be ridiculed by the other party.

She sighed helplessly: "Okay, just do as you say." ”

With her approval, Renard directly drafted a notice for recruiting soldiers: The Lord's Mansion recruits soldiers, only for mid-level and above martial artists, the monthly salary of middle-level martial artists is three silver coins, the monthly salary of high-level martial artists is ten silver coins, and the military salary of martial artists of Dou Qi and above is negotiable.

Later, he changed the original amount of military salary, and the monthly salary of ordinary guards was three silver coins, four silver coins for the squad leader, and five silver coins for the squadron leader.

The monthly salary of the Black Cavalry is ten silver coins, twelve silver coins for the squad leader, and fifteen silver coins for the squadron leader.

Compared with the previous amount of military salaries, everyone's salaries have increased by about 30 percent.

He called two guards and ordered: "Make a few copies of this notice and post it in all conspicuous places in the city." ”

The two guards looked at it and immediately opened their mouths, for they realized that they seemed to have received a salary increase.

Immediately afterward, they rushed out of the gate of the lord's mansion with lightning speed, and as soon as they left the door, they shouted: "Salary increase, brothers' salary increase." ”

Then he felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly changed his words: "The Lord's Mansion recruits soldiers, only for mid-level and above martial artists, the monthly salary of middle-level martial artists is three silver coins, the monthly salary of high-level martial artists is ten silver coins, and the military salary of martial artists of Dou Qi and above is negotiable......"

Heidi rubbed her forehead, she couldn't speak in the presence of her subordinates just now, so as not to be stingy with herself, but now that there was no one around, she could finally complain: "Do you know how much we have to spend for nothing?"

Renard spread his hands: "There is a saying that you should have heard that you will do as much as you want, and if you want them to work hard when the demon disaster comes, don't be stingy with this little effort." ”
