Song Ying'er and the others claimed the number one after another, Fang Ling thought for a while and said, "Brother Lu, what do you think I will teach this Lingxiao Nine Slash to the guards?"
Lu Bei Zhengse said: "Your Highness's nine moves are fatal, and the style is mighty, if the guards can learn it, then it will definitely increase its strength!"
Hao Tieniu and the others were even more overjoyed, so excited that their hands were shaking, Fang Ling said this is not for nothing, in fact, although the guards are growing up very quickly, but they are young after all, if they meet a real master, they are afraid that they will not be able to protect the safety of the queen mother and relatives. 35xs
However, if he cultivated this Ling Xiao Nine Slash, Fang Ling was confident that the strength of the guards would be at least doubled, so that he could rest assured when he went out to fight in the future.
Song Ying'er couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Your Highness, can I learn the sword too?"
Fang Ling smiled and said: "Of course you can, as long as you understand the 'meaning' of these nine tricks, it is not difficult to learn, come on, I will teach you now, Brother Lu won't mind, right?"
Lu Bei hurriedly said in fear: "His Royal Highness's cultivation is earlier than the minister, and the minister can learn His Highness's martial arts, which is the luck of the minister." ”
Fang Ling smiled, and began to evolve outside the tent, to exert the power of Ling Xiao Nine Slash, it was that its moves were clean and neat, each style was the most direct killing move, which could maximize the strength of the martial artist.
The most important thing is that the Lingxiao Nine Slashes are formed by fusing the meaning of the six Qiankun Recipes, that is to say, the meaning can be connected to the mental methods of various sects, so that the guards can use their own mental methods to perform the Lingxiao Nine Slashes, all different, but all have powerful lethality.
Of course, to embody the strongest power of Ling Xiao's Nine Slashes, it is Fang Ling's Six Ways of Wonder.
Hao Tieniu and others were excited to learn, only to learn only to find that this neat move is not so easy to be able to understand, it took half a day, but not even a move has been learned, the more so, but the more devoted to learning, after all, not everyone has the opportunity to learn these nine moves. Debuted M.33XS
After the grassland incident, Fang Ling and others finally set off to return to China, Turanke and others sent ten miles to each other, and when leaving, Tulan Motuo was even more excited to hug Fang Ling, telling him to have a safe journey, and he must return to the grassland in the future. 35xs update fastest computer: s/
The brotherhood was as deep as the sea, and Fang Ling couldn't help but be moved in his heart, and after waving his hand and saying goodbye to everyone, he hurried to the border of Chu State.
A few days later, they returned to Stone City, and along the way, news of the war in the south continued to come, and the flames of war spread to more and more places.
As soon as he returned to Shicheng, Fang Ling immediately felt that this place was different from before, that is, a large number of tents had been set up outside the city, which accommodated many refugees from the south, and when he walked into the city, a lot of accommodation facilities were also set up on the streets, and the whole city was simply overcrowded.
Back in the mansion, Fang Ling didn't care about resting, and immediately summoned Chen Mou, Chen Mou was obviously a little anxious, rushed over with a sad face, and after meeting him, he stood aside.
Fang Ling opened his mouth and asked, "As soon as I came back, I found that there were refugees everywhere, and it seems that Lord Chen is worried about this matter." ”
Chen Mou smiled bitterly: "Your Highness, the refugees in the south are indeed a difficult problem, Niangniang sympathizes with the refugees, and instructs the ministers to give free food and lodging, and not to charge any fees." In terms of the funds in the treasury, although the daily consumption is large, it is not a problem. Niangniang's righteous act attracted the gratitude and virtue of the refugees, but thousands of people came every day, not only in the city, but also in a few miles outside the city. ”
Fang Ling calmly took a sip of tea and said with a light smile: "I guessed that it was the queen mother's approach, my mother herself has suffered enough, and she can't see others suffer." However, the large population should not be the biggest problem at the moment, right?"
Chen Mou nodded and said, sighing: "Your Highness, of course it is not a problem to have a large population, in fact, this has not only greatly increased the strength of our country, but also made the name of Niangniang's compassion spread far and wide. However, the grain of the vassal states was already tight, and many refugees had poured into other prefectures and counties, and grain merchants from all over the country were hoarding grain goods, and it would be difficult to buy grain even at high prices in a few days. 35xs Niangniang has spoken in advance, no charge, if you break your word, I'm afraid it will damage the name of Niangniang. ”
Fang Ling smiled and said, "It seems that it is really time for me to come back, I have a solution to this problem." ”
"Really, please make it clear to Your Highness!" Chen Mou suddenly said happily.
Fang Ling said: "On this trip to the grassland, I successfully formed an alliance with the five tribes, and negotiated the establishment of twenty trading cities in the border area. ”
"Twenty cities?" Chen Mou immediately said excitedly, "If we can establish so many border cities, it will be equivalent to increasing the territory of our Shicheng Kingdom by twenty cities!"
Fang Ling smiled slightly: "Yes, my assumption is so, although these twenty cities are used for the development of border trade, but I propose that we Chu people build them, they are happy to be easy if they don't make any efforts, so that the power to govern the city will naturally fall into the hands of our country, with these twenty cities as the backing, our country's strength will be greatly improved, and it will not be inferior to the state." ”
Chen Mou is so smart, he can understand it at a glance, and admired: "Your Highness's move is too wise, so let's directly send refugees to the border area, build cities, and let them live and work there in peace and contentment." ”
Fang Ling bowed his head and said: "Early tomorrow morning, Lord Chen, you will issue an order that all refugees who are willing to go to the border area to build a city will be paid at least 1 tael of silver per person a month, and more important work can be increased to 3 taels." ”
Chen Mou breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Your Highness is so generous, I'm afraid that these refugees will rush to the border, after all, the monthly salary of a county order is only 5 or 6 taels of silver." ”
Fang Ling said meaningfully: "It's not that I don't think I have a lot of money, nor is it generous, but I think what they have done is worth my price, once the twenty cities are established, it will be of great benefit to our country." Moreover, the conditions on the border are indeed not as comfortable as in the south, and it is natural to be able to give more silver. ”
Chen Mou said: "What His Royal Highness said is very true, and the minister will arrange it later." ”
Fang Ling nodded and continued to ask, "How is the war in the south recently?" Although I have heard a lot of rumors along the way, I don't know the specifics. ”
Chen Mou immediately walked to the map, and said while pointing: "In the past two months, the power of the Eight Kings has been greatly expanded, whether it is several vassal states in the east or several kings in the south, they have conquered more than a dozen county cities, and they are unstoppable all the way, especially the King of Yizhou, who has almost occupied the entire Xuzhou territory, and is now preparing to attack Dingzhou!"
"Dingzhou?" Fang Ling stared at the map, squinting his eyes slightly, after Dingzhou is the merger, and after the merger is the fiefdom, this war is about to reach the doorstep, he suddenly asked, "What about the movement over there in the imperial city?"
Chen Mou immediately said: "Your Majesty is quite angry about the unfavorable suppression in various places, and ordered the generals of all sides to lead the army to resist, and the minister also heard that Your Majesty is ready to send the king of Qin in the northern and western states. ”
"It seems that my father can't sit still, once King Qin, I'm afraid that Queen Song won't miss me, and I guess I won't be able to wait for a few days with the holy decree. Fang Ling sneered, and then asked, "How is the matter of the Heavenly Crafting Divine Crossbow going?"
Chen Mou immediately said: "Back to Your Highness, more than a hundred have been completed so far. ”
"One hundred?" Fang Ling was overjoyed, before leaving the grassland, Mo Xiang said that he would complete a maximum of 80 in two months, but now that the two-month deadline has not expired, he has actually completed a hundred, how can this not be surprising?
However, he caught a glimpse of Chen Mou's face with a difficult face, so he Nunu said: "Lord Chen, just say something if you have something." ”
Chen Mou said bluntly: "Your Highness, the Tiangong Divine Crossbow can accomplish so much because Miss Mo has developed a new casting method, so that the parts of the Divine Crossbow can be cast faster. However, in order to study the casting method, Miss Mo rushed to work day and night, and fell ill a few days ago. ”
"What?" Fang Ling stood up suddenly, and suddenly felt a little guilty, if it wasn't for his own urging, he was afraid that Mo Xiang would not fall ill.
At this time, Song Ying'er had just walked in from outside, and when she heard this, she couldn't help but wonder: "Lord Chen, who is sick?"
"Miss Mo is sick. Chen Mou repeated.
Song Ying'er couldn't help but be taken aback, and hurriedly said to Fang Ling: "Your Highness, let's go see Sister Xiang'er." ”
Fang Ling nodded, and immediately walked out with Song Ying'er, Chen Mou followed, pondering about the construction of border cities, and at the same time secretly admired in his heart, the people of the grassland were all rebellious, especially the upper-class nobles were prejudiced against the southerners, Fang Ling went to a trip, and he was able to negotiate the establishment of twenty border cities, which was enough to make people stunned.
Now what Shicheng lacks is the population, if you take all these refugees for yourself and build twenty cities the same size as Shicheng, then the strength of Shicheng Country will not be below any state-level country!
Thinking like this, even Chen Mou, who had always been calm, couldn't help but get excited, and his pace gradually accelerated a lot.
Coming to the outside of the Mo Mansion, the Mo family's family saw Fang Ling coming, and while introducing him, he went to report that Fang Ling had just walked into the mansion Not long after, Mo Chenggang hurriedly rushed out with the people of the Mo family, large and small, and fell to his knees after a while.
Everyone's respect and gratitude for Fang Ling are from the heart, Fang Ling not only helped them solve the mystery left by their ancestors, but also let them no longer have to be bullied by the state officials, and now many people in the Mo family are working in the Ministry of Industry, and finally have to show their ambitions.
Fang Ling asked everyone to stand up, praised them for their contribution to the Tiangong Divine Crossbow, and then pulled Mo Chenggang and asked about Mo Xiang's condition, Mo Chenggang knew that Fang Ling was originally here for Mo Xiang, and he was flattered, and hurriedly took him towards Mo Xiang's bedroom.
Xiaoqing Xiaolan was coming from the corridor with the boiled medicine, and when she saw Fang Ling and the three of them coming, she hurriedly saluted, and then rushed to the front to push the door open, and Xiaoqing hurriedly ran to report.
