Kan Jing looked at Chen Ning's stupid appearance, like a goose, which made her laugh involuntarily.

This also made the second monk Chen Ning even more confused, and Kan Jing sighed in his heart, this guy may be really stupid.

The two returned to the Black Army, and Chen Ning instructed Kan Jing to take out half of the 500,000 gold coins and distribute them to the brothers of the two armies of the Angel of Judgment and the Winged Angel according to their ranks, records of killing zombies, and meritorious service. As for the remaining 250,000 gold coins, they will be used for future expenses.

When the Black Legion was just established, in order to test Chen Ning's ability, the Metropolitan Governor symbolically gave 100,000 gold coins, and he didn't even support the equipment. So it was difficult to start at the beginning, but fortunately, with the strong financial support of the Liu family, the Black Army was finally formed.

The Black Legion performed well in the Southern Theater this time, although it was a small legion of only 1,000 people, but it showed the strength of the regular legions.

After the results, the Metropolitan Governor was not so stingy with his support for the Black Army. This time to expand the scale, the Metropolitan Governor also promised to give money and equipment, and everything did not let Chen Ning worry anymore.

The Grand Governor had said before, don't think about what you get from the Empire, think about what you can do for the Empire?

Now, the Black Legion has shown its potential, and the Metropolitan Governor has begun to support it with all his might.

More than a thousand soldiers of the Black Legion, even including the logistics personnel, were rewarded in line with their performance, ranging from a few dozen gold coins to three or four hundred gold coins, which directly made everyone in the Black Legion boil.

You must know that Chen Ning was in the Blue Bird Training Camp, and out of a thousand students, he fought to the elite group of only fifty people, and the reward he received was only three gold coins. And now the most average guys in the Black Legion can get more than 30 gold coins at once, while lieutenants like Gu Yutong and the Bull Demon King, who have performed well in the operation in the southern theater, can get more than 400 gold coins.

In an instant, everyone in the entire Black Legion made a windfall, and one by one they were even more grateful to Chen Ning, they all knew that even if it was the Guards of the Grand Governor, it was impossible to have such a generous bonus, and everyone felt that it was the right choice to join the Black Legion and follow Chen Ning to life and death.

Liu Ruyan, the quartermaster who was responsible for distributing the money to each soldier, was also shocked by Chen Ning's generosity, and she privately told Chen Ning that there was no need to reward so much.

Chen Ning smiled and said: "There is no brave man without a heavy reward, the Black Legion is going to expand in scale, the news of this heavy reward spreads, there will be more people who come to the Black Legion to sign up, and we can also select better rookie fighters." In addition, our selection will be stricter, the training will be more devilish, and the requirements for the soldiers will be more demanding to ensure the combat effectiveness of the Black Legion. ”

The entire Black Legion was enveloped in a jubilant atmosphere, and it was almost the same as the New Year.

Chen Ning also gave the soldiers a two-day holiday, so that everyone could relax for two days, after all, everyone went to the southern theater this time, which can be regarded as birth and death, and now it is time to let the brothers live happily for two days.

The barracks were on holiday, but Chen Ning was not idle.

He first went to the Liu family with Liu Ruyan, and met Liu Hong, the head of the Liu family, and Liu Yu, the second master of the Liu family, Liu Hong is Liu Ruyan's uncle, and Liu Yu is Liu Ruyan's father.

Liu Hong and Liu Yu heard that Chen Ning came to visit in person, so they hurriedly took important members of the Liu family and went out to greet them in person.

The Liu family is very rich, and it can be regarded as a wealthy business family in Vermilion Bird City, but in the apocalyptic era, the status of rich people is far inferior to that of powerful officers, so even if Chen Ning is only a colonel, Liu Hong and Liu Yu still have to give gifts when they meet.

But Chen Ning took the lead in stepping forward, helped Liu Hong and Liu Yu with his left and right hands, and said with a smile: "Don't be so polite to the two uncles, otherwise you will see the outside." ”

Liu Ruyan also giggled on the side: "Uncle, Dad, you really don't have to be polite, I just said that Chen Ning is very honest and easy-going, just treat him as his own." ”

Liu Hong and Liu Yu liked this, they both smiled, and said again and again: "Yes, yes, Colonel Chen is his own person, let's go and sit in the house." ”

Entering the palatial hall of the Liu family, Chen Ning also handed over a gift, which was a pot of tea given to Chen Ning by the eldest princess Jiangling before leaving, which was royal tea.

Liu Hong and Liu Yu, two rich people, have not drunk any kind of expensive tea, but this kind of royal tea is something they can never buy even if they have money, this is an honor, a face, and in the future, they will gather with rich friends and take out this tea to make a pot, and then it will be enough for the two of them to boast triumphantly.

Therefore, Liu Hong and Liu Yu were full of joy and cherished the tea.

At the same time, the two of them were also very satisfied with Chen Ning's character, and felt that Chen Ning was not a person who forgot his roots, and it was worth their greater investment.

Chen Ning didn't stay at Liu's house for too long, and after sitting for half an hour, he got up and said goodbye.

Although Liu Hong and Liu Yu wanted to keep Chen Ning for dinner, they also knew that Chen Ning's identity was different now, and there were many people who wanted to visit when they came back this time, including many senior officers who had a good relationship with Chen Ning, so it was not easy for them to force Chen Ning to eat.

However, when Chen Ning left, Liu Ruyan personally sent Chen Ning out, Liu Yu looked at the back of his daughter who was a good match for Chen Ning, his eyes lit up, and then he said to his wife and Liu Hong: "Big brother, sister-in-law, wife, what do you think of Ruyan and Chen Ning?"

"It's a good match!"

"That's right, if Ruyan can marry Chen Ning, then our Liu family and Chen Ning will be regarded as their own people. ”

"What a good idea!"

Just when several elders of the Liu family were happily talking about this matter, Liu Ruyan came back after sending Chen Ning, she heard her parents and aunts discussing them, and her pretty face instantly turned crimson, but she couldn't help but whisper: "Don't worry about it, there are many women in Chen Ning, not to mention anything else, it is Lieutenant Colonel Kan Jing, the deputy commander of our legion, she is one of them, and Chen Ning is really good to Kan Jing." ”

"Ah, Chen Ning has a suitable wife?"

"She is still a female lieutenant colonel and a deputy commander, and our daughter is not as good as others. ”

"In this era, a capable man, who doesn't have a few wives and concubines, since we can't compete for the position of a wife, you say that Ruyan is a concubine in a partial house, this should be no problem, right?"

"Our Liu family is a wealthy commercial family in Vermilion Bird City, Ruyan is also a wealthy daughter, and Ruyan is beautiful and moving, and has a good figure, it must be no problem to be Chen Ning's concubine, but our dignified Liu family's daughter, as someone else's concubine, this is a bit unpleasant!"

"Oh, what's this, look at Chen Ning's identity, he is a martial champion, the protégé of the Son of Heaven of the Metropolitan Governor, he is already a colonel at a young age, and he will become a colonel and a major general another day, and in the future, he will be in a position like Liu Luanlin and Bai Chongshan in our Vermilion Bird City, it can be said that he has an unlimited future, what is wrong with our daughter marrying him, and when Chen Ning really soars, maybe he will not look down on our daughter." ”

"Yes, yes, yes, marry!"

When Liu Ruyan heard this, her face was full of shame, and she couldn't help but say reluctantly: "Parents, aunts and uncles, what are you doing here?"

Liu Yu: "What's the matter, of course I'm choosing a son-in-law for you!"

Liu Hong said in a deep voice: "Like smoke, it is very normal for wealthy families to get married, the so-called parents' orders matchmaker, we will call the shots for you in this matter, and you must not have any objections." ”

Of course, Liu Ruyan knew that the children of the wealthy family had no freedom in marriage, and the uncle arranged a marriage for her with ulterior motives, wanting to use her to tie up the interests of Chen Ning and the Liu family. When was it, Liu Ruyan was very afraid of the arrival of this kind of marriage arranged by the family, but this time, the family's arrangement with ulterior motives, deep in her heart, she liked it.
