Chapter 139: The Beginning of Spring

And Wang Yong is the most proud of them all, because he definitely has a few more moves than everyone else! Because he had power when he was a Wind Thief! Wei Nengduo naturally guarantees that his strength is strong, and if his strength is strong, it is easier to establish meritorious deeds! Finally, it is more convenient to get more knowledge and action!

The speed of learning power is very fast, as long as there is a Taoist priest who can teach power. And when the snow fell, the Taoist priest of Gufang led the two female Taoist children to Linhe City to live and express his loyalty. Therefore, without the knowledge of outsiders, Zhao Hu, the nearly 100 warriors, all learned power.

Therefore, after the samurai led the soldiers for training, they all began to become proficient in the power they had learned, and there were almost no people who would not cherish such a good opportunity to ascend to the sky in these years, so the samurai of the Zhao family definitely trained harder than the soldiers!

Throughout the winter, the Zhao family worked hard to strengthen their strength without outsiders knowing.

"The snow has melted!" The people who were busy in the entire Zhao family's territory noticed the change in the weather for the first time. And when they encountered this situation before, the leaders of the Zhao family, who were absolutely happy, treated it very indifferently.

No way, these people are not forced to cat at home for a winter, it can be said that they are busy outside the house all winter, even busier than usual, where do you need to care about snowflakes, the time of spring? 、

However, although everyone treats the arrival of spring with a normal heart, Zhao Hu's official government has to prepare for the arrival of spring. Needless to say, the first thing to do is to organize the people of the whole territory and start clearing the main roads from snow, dredging the canals, and laying stone roads.

In the previous winter, because of various equipment and facilities, everyone was able to run outside when the wind and snow were blowing, and at that time, in order to make the road smooth, there was no less shoveling snow to clear the road, but at that time, the snow was removed in the morning, and it was covered by heavy snow in the afternoon, and I was a little tired of repeated work.

But now that the snow has melted, you can really shovel the snow, and you don't have to worry about the snow and water seeping into the dirt road and turning it into a muddy road. Because of a winter, a lot of coal is burned, and this kind of thing is used to pave the road, and filling the mud road is a convenient and cheap thing.

Of course, Zhao Hu will not requisition the people for free, and he is very generous and gives orders directly, and the people who come out to work according to the orders of the Administration Department are three adults a day with pickles and rice balls the size of an adult's fist!

Go without saying. As soon as Zhao Hu's order was issued, the people of the entire territory became excited, and all men, women, and children walked out of their homes to wait for the administrative department to send officials to confirm the list, and led them to busy with the infrastructure work.

The spies who were still hiding in the house were a little dumbfounded, and they naturally knew that the coldest time was when the snow melted. Except for those who don't have firewood at home, no one will go out at all. But the people and lords of the Zhao family are crazy? This coldest time actually ran out to engage in infrastructure?

Some spies just pouted and went back to continue to nest, while some spies had ugly faces and hurriedly ran back to their forces to report, and found along the way that except for Zhao Jialing, they began to be lively. The rest of the territory was silent, and the tension was even more urgent.

Most of the forces that received these spy reports scoffed at them, and only a few began to consider whether they needed to change the Zhao family's decision.

It didn't take many days for Zhao Hu to run out of the winter completely, and the whole leader began normal spring work, the city continued to be built, the troops continued to cultivate, and the infrastructure in various places was roughly completed. It is normal for the manpower and material resources of the whole collar to start to be placed on spring ploughing.

And Zhao Hu's side began to be busy with spring ploughing, and the other forces began to slowly recover from the end of winter, and the leaders were busy looking for food. For the people of these places, winter has already exhausted their savings, and the autumn harvest is still more than half a year away, which is the time of great hardship.

And those adults who have been nesting for a quarter of winter, depending on their own savings problems, the big forces are naturally slow and continue to nest at home. And the forces of the poor, of course, are the same as the people. Run out early to find a job to fill your belly.

It's a normal thing, the snow in these places hasn't melted yet, and the spring plowing hasn't started yet, so everyone has to look for food everywhere at this time.

And Zhao Hu's movements will naturally spread, not to mention those foot merchants who have been holding back for a long time and are now going out on the road immediately, even those who lead the people to visit relatives, they will tell the situation of the Zhao family.

Not to mention anything else, working for the Zhao family, three fist-sized pickle rice balls a day directly attracted the leaders of the nearby forces to flock over. These people who left the countryside and came to Zhao Hu's side to work thought very clearly, they ate one rice ball a day and left two, so they could feed their families!

And those bachelors, even more understandable, only need to eat one, such a huge rice ball, endure it, it can support a day, and the remaining two are sold to those foot merchants to earn a few copper plates, which is also a very wonderful thing.

As for the foot merchant Wei Mao, will he do his business to collect these rice balls? It's very simple, because Zhao Hu is rich and generous, and the rice balls the size of an adult's fist are very strong, and each rice ball is also wrapped in two finger-thick salt-soaked dried radish. This kind of food that the local tyrants are reluctant to use is really too rich. Including the people of Zhao Hu's skills, few of the people who received three rice balls a day were eaten directly!

Especially Zhao Hu's skills, most of them take the rice balls home and use the coal stove to cook porridge, so that the family can eat enough and save the extra rice balls.

After the merchant buys the rice ball, it is simple, first pull out the dried radish, soak the rice ball in water, expose it to the sun, turn it into brown rice, hoard enough to a certain amount, and then sell it to the big merchants, the price is completely doubled several times!

Zhao Hu's generous decision not only allowed the various facilities in his own territory to have sufficient manpower to complete, but also spread the reputation of the Zhao family's wealth and generosity further and further.

Although on the premise of feeding his own people, he also fed many people of the Ling family, but Zhao Hu didn't care about this at all, but was a little proud, because many of the people under the influence of the Ling family pretended to go out to work, and moved the family to Zhao Hu's territory one by one!

For this population sent to the door, where will Zhao Hu not accept it! The size of the population in these years represents the size of the strength! Naturally, without saying a word, these people were resettled in the village at once. And with such an example, naturally more people migrate.

Anyway, these people, in the original place, is a broken thatched hut, other fragments, one by one, the migration actions are naturally brought over, so there is nothing to care about at home, there were not so many people who moved before, mainly because they were afraid that there would be no land to plant when they came to Zhao Hu's side.

But I didn't expect Zhao Hu's side to directly accept and assign to Zhao Hu's direct leader, and a lot of fields can be cultivated by them, in this case, it is strange not to move! Because if nothing else, just the people on Zhao Hu's side celebrate the New Year's Festival, or encounter natural and man-made disasters, the lord will give rewards and rescues, which is enough to crush the other lords in the world. And now the lord who defected is still a wealthy and generous adult, a strong man can support his family by doing odd jobs, in this situation, it is strange not to move!

Therefore, when the first group of people who sneaked over were settled down and began to work and eat like the rest of the people, it suddenly began to attract a large number of people, and even the whole village ran away! Especially the area connected by the Ling family and the Zhao family was almost swept away!

As for the soldiers stationed at the border? It's not like it's not really out of winter yet, everyone is hiding in the military fort, too lazy to pay attention to the people who pass in twos and threes. In one, some soldiers were jealous of the Zhao family's treatment and ran away secretly, which was also a helpless thing.

When the little lord below the Ling family found out that something was wrong, there was no one in his own territory, and when he reported it in horror, the Ling family was shocked to find that the population on the territory of his own border had decreased by two-thirds! The remaining third are still hesitating whether to go to the Zhao family to live!

Is this still worth it?! The Ling family, who noticed this situation, immediately became furious, and they didn't bother to care about the time when it was still very cold, so they directly dispatched standing troops, and rushed towards the Zhao family with such a fierce momentum, and the leader of the troops was naturally Lord Tian Kuo, who was already eager to try, and the Ling family's first person in force!

Sitting on a tall horse, wearing armor shining in the sun, the high-spirited Lord Tian Kuo was already ready to move as early as when Zhao Hu was inexplicably presented by the Linhe Hall and jumped directly from a hundred stone warriors to a thousand stone Zhixing.

And when Zhao Hu annexed the entire Tianlan Township at once, and became Wanshi Zhixing, Tian Kuo's eyes were red when he got the news!

I can't help but blush! Ten thousand stones! Even if you surrender to a certain family, as long as you reach the knowledge of ten thousand stones, then you can be called a lord! That's right! Wanshi is a tipping point! Under ten thousand stones, even if you have reached nine thousand stones of Zhixing, you can only be called a local tyrant, and you are not qualified to be called a lord. Of course, if you were a lord above ten thousand stones before, but you were told that you were below ten thousand stones, you can still be called a lord!
