Chapter 137: A Harvest

When Zhao Hu shouted and scolded and led people to rush in, the female relatives in the house were all killed, and a tunnel was also exposed in the corner, and someone was sent in to check, this tunnel actually passed outside the village. On this snowy day, it is impossible to find a samurai with the power of the white peak.

"Damn! Ruthless enough! I'm so skilled at killing people and killing mouths, I've thought about it many times! Zhao Hu scolded helplessly, and then ordered his subordinates to start receiving the entire mining village.

Of course, since that person has signed up, no matter whether this person is true or not, it is always a clue, and the back is to see if he has enough manpower. Anyway, if you have a name, you'll always find some clues. I believe that the person felt that he had become a mortal enemy with the Zhao family, so he reported his name.

If the name is true. Then the mastermind behind the mining village can't get rid of the martial arts system, but it's just strange that there is a martial arts hand in the nearby forces that can reach so far? And there are so many connections in the commercial port? The energy is so great. Probably not an unknown person, right?

Hehe, this is another clue, just let the killer start with those big forces and celebrities. Anyway, the other party can't be a daimyo from neighboring countries. On the contrary, it is possible that the daimyo who are separated by several countries will come out to collect money.

Zhao Hu explained the matter, and he rummaged through the boxes and cabinets in the so-called Zuo Sheng's house, looking for all useful things. The result is naturally very normal, the goods ran in a hurry, and there was only time to kill the family members, and the account books and other things could not be destroyed.

Zhao Hu, who got the account book, looked at it, his brows jumped, and a happy look appeared on his face.

The account books recorded the population and artisans of the mining village, as well as the annual income of the iron mines, and these figures made Zhao Hu want to cheer loudly.

It's very simple, not counting the family, just the young and strong miners, this mining village actually hides more than 3,400 people! This is definitely a young man! Not to mention anything else, the strength alone is not many times greater than that of a farmer cow in the prime of life!

There are more than 300 blacksmiths of all colors, and there are five craftsmen! One craftsman can control a smelting base, and there are five of them!

There is no record of the annual iron ore at all, only more than 10,000 stones of pig iron that have been successfully smelted every year!

If it weren't for the fact that the account books were written in black and white, Zhao Hu wouldn't believe that this was the smelting output of a village! Because that's not 10,000 catties of pig iron, but 10,000 stone of pig iron!

If the world counts stone as a weight, it is 120 catties! That is to say, this village has an annual output of 1.2 million catties of pig iron, according to the market price of 10 wen a catty of pig iron, if the price is sold in half, that is, an annual output of 6 million wen yuan in a village! That's 6,000 pieces!

A village is equal to the income of a township! It's a mess! No wonder that Zuo Sheng and the forces behind him were hidden so tightly, the news spread, not to mention the forces of Donghai County, that is, the Ling family would send troops to occupy Tianlan Township.

Of course, this money will definitely not reach so much after deducting the cost of labor and materials, and a sixth is considered good, and people don't care about this money, what they care about is another kind of powerful strength improvement brought by the weapon made of this 10,000-stone pig iron!

Similarly, Zhao Hu didn't care about these at all, he stared up at the golden finger of the planting space with glowing eyes, and his mind probed towards the mine, and sure enough, the original number of 100,000 catties of refined iron directly turned into 10,000 stones of refined iron!

In an instant, Zhao Hu opened his mouth and laughed wildly, and danced with his hands.

As I said before, one stone is equal to 120 catties, and the market price of refined iron is 1 pound! In other words, by the autumn harvest of the next year, even if Zhao Hu sells the refined iron at a 50% discount according to the market price, it can be exchanged for a full 600,000 yuan in cash!

600,000 yuan! How many powerful warriors can this breed? It's okay for all the soldiers to learn Wei Neng now, right? It's okay to expand your own killer crowd to the whole world, right?

And if you don't sell all the fine iron, half of it will have 300,000 yuan in cash, and the remaining 600,000 catties of fine iron will be used to build weapons and armor, so won't your own Shenlong troops be armed to the teeth? Hehe, I don't dare to say that I swept the world, it should be no problem to sweep this country, right?!

Thinking of this, Zhao Hu's saliva immediately flowed down, and the cries and scolding voices of the miners and blacksmiths outside who were driven out by the Shenlong soldiers to gather seemed so pleasant in Zhao Hu's ears.

Zhao Hu braved the snow to attack the mining village and got the biggest result, so many young people and so many weapons in the entire mining village, they didn't bring much damage to the Shenlong soldiers. And after killing the bloody guys, the five or six thousand people in the entire mining village were driven out of their homes like quails by the wolf-like dragon soldiers.

Seeing the dense crowd of people, Zhao Hu was also taken aback, this small mining village actually has such a large population? That's because most of the miners don't have families, and if everyone had families, that number would have to double!

In other words, the population of a village is equal to one-fifth of the population of Tianlan Township! Zhao Hu and a number of retainers couldn't help but be glad that they had backed down when they attacked the mining village for the first time, otherwise I was afraid that their own people would definitely be directly annihilated at that time!

Fortunately, this time it was a sneak attack in the snow, and the other party entered the village without the slightest preparation, and directly blocked these strong men in the house. Otherwise, let the other party gather, although it will definitely win, but I am afraid it will also be a miserable victory, and at that time, these miners who have been killed will definitely be very difficult to discipline, and they will either flee or rebel.

Although a few hot-blooded guys have been killed now, it is too small compared to the total number of people, so there is no need to worry about excessive damage, so that these miners have opinions in their hearts, and the management is believed to be much easier.

Zhao Hu naturally knew this, and assured these miners and blacksmiths that they would continue to enjoy the previous treatment, and also rewarded them lavishly. The mining village, which is not short of money, purchased a large number of materials in advance in order to survive the winter, and was originally waiting for the long winter to slowly distribute these materials, but all of them fell into the hands of Zhao Hu, and Zhao Hu would naturally take out a little to buy people's hearts.

Sure enough, the people of this world are so easy to manage, and when Zhao Hu stated that he would not kill innocents indiscriminately, and indicated that they would live tomorrow as before, most of the people had no opinion.

And a group. As long as most people have no opinions, then there will be no problems with this group, as for them to accept Zhao Hu as their new master so easily? That's so understandable.

First of all, because of Zuo Sheng's strange identity, they can't shout that Lao Tzu is a member of the Zhao family like Zhao Hu, and they can only hang the identity of the leader of an autonomous village, and this identity is actually no different from the thieves group for the people of this world, and it can't even be compared with the officially recognized local tyrants.

And most importantly, this place is the territory of the Zhao family. The last time Zhao Hu led his troops to coerce and Zuo Sheng doubled the tribute, these miners and blacksmiths already knew that the place where they were had changed lords, and they had a psychological preparation.

After that, Zhao Hu rose rapidly, and suddenly occupied the entire Tianlan Township, and suddenly became the head of Wanshi Township, and naturally it also spread to the ears of everyone in the mining village with the mouth of the merchant. This kind of thing completely raised Zhao Hu's identity to an incredible level.

You must know that Zhao Hu was just a local tyrant before, but after he became Wanshi Zhixing, this is awesome, and he can already be called His Royal Highness by outsiders! Whether it is a good local or not, it is a great identity. The local people must show respect.

That's not all, Zhao Hu directly unified the Wanshi name of the entire Tianlan Township, and he can add the title of a township! Having this title and not having this title are completely different things, the head of the township, the county guard, and the lord of the country. All three of these titles were reserved for the daimyo who unified the entire region.

And the strength brought by a unified region is definitely not something that other daimyo can compete with! So the status is naturally different, and therefore, when Zhao Hu's identity as the head of Wanshi Township came out, the people in the mining village already had a completely different impression of Zhao Hu.

If Zhao Hu suppressed the mining village before, although everyone recognized Zhao Hu's ruling power as a new lord, they were not happy. After all, they knew how strong their mining village was, but they couldn't understand why a few leaders didn't expand externally, and just concentrated on mining and smelting to build weapons and make money.

And when Zhao Hu was called the head of Wanshi Township, all the miners and blacksmiths privately admired Zhao Hu, after all, there were few people in history who could leap from a hundred stone warriors to Wanshi Township in such a short period of time.

At the same time, they had a vague hint of pride, especially when chatting with businessmen from other places, they couldn't help but praise the Zhao family when they mentioned it, because no matter what their mining village was, it was nominally under the jurisdiction of the Zhao family!

Therefore, with these premises, especially when Zhao Hu has already invaded the village and killed several leaders, these miners and blacksmiths will accept Zhao Hu's rule so quickly.

Of course, although he noticed that these guys were very obedient, Zhao Hu did not indulge like this, but selected about 1,000 miners from more than 3,000 young miners to join the Shenlong Soldiers.

That's right, only by incorporating a part of their young and strong into the army, can the relationship between the whole leader be reflected, with these people as soldiers, everyone is from the same village, and there are relatives, and the rest of the people have to think clearly if they want to make trouble.
