"Hey. I have no relatives or friends in Dafeng Village, so I don't want to accept the kindness of Dafeng Village anymore, after all, the quota of my maid can be used for my knowledge and action. Zhao Hu said with emotion.

"That's true, if you can recruit a few servants on Zhixing, it will be much easier for you to manage Zhixing." The samurai nodded approvingly.

Zhao Hu just nodded, this kind of behavior of recruiting people from his own territory is also a kind of buying people's hearts, and at the same time, he is also trying to cut off the relationship with Dafeng Village, without the existence of people from Dafeng Village, there will be fewer opportunities for him to be exposed. And so on for a while. Then you are not afraid of anyone questioning yourself.

Of course, this is also related to the hint of the lord before his own body, and the goods heard that he knew and divided into Tianlan Township. Immediately came to the door with a gift, and was ready to give himself a maid, before he became a samurai, he went to visit and said to this thing for a while. Looking at the appearance of this goods, it is not clear what he thinks? Isn't it just that he didn't go back to fight with him for the right to the village?

So for this kind of cautious goods, Zhao Hu didn't even bother to remember his name. It's a pity that the same village hung up as soon as it appeared.

"By the way, how does our Ling family's military dispatch method calculate?" Zhao Hu suddenly remembered something and asked.

"Ten stones sent one soldier. Lord Zhao Hu, I really envy you that you can form a team on your own as soon as you become a samurai, and you can also hang your own family crest, which is really envious and speechless. The samurai said with a look of envy and jealousy.

Zhao Hu knew what the other party envied, it was definitely not because of Zhixing Baishi, this was in exchange for military exploits, there was nothing to envy, what the other party envied should be that he could hang a flag and designate a family crest. It stands to reason that only intermediate warriors have this qualification, but who let it be such a coincidence, a battle to determine the winner or loser, actually gave Zhao Hu this goods, and naturally won such an honor.

It's just that Zhao Hu didn't care about this, he was worried about the ten troops, although it was no problem to pull out 10 old men casually, but the important thing was that Zhao Hu had to start forming a team, how could he get ten strong people out, and then take them to train, so that he could reap the benefits in the battle, right?

But it's easy to pull people, even the poorest Zhixing can definitely pull out ten strong people, even if you train them, it's no problem, Zhao Hu must be good at this product. But the biggest problem is how to keep them eating, drinking, and living, and at the same time have to prepare equipment for them! This is even more of a big problem, because there is no money!

"It seems that we can only wait for the autumn harvest to be calculated, and I hope that the surrounding forces will jump out after the autumn harvest, right? It's just that it shouldn't be possible, everyone knows that before the autumn harvest is the most painful, with the support of other forces, will the surrounding forces of the Ling family not know the truth of taking advantage of their illness to kill them? Oh, that's distressing. Zhao Hu couldn't help muttering.

The group walked all the way giggling, all the way, but whenever they met the peasants kneeling on both sides, these guys straightened their waists, put on a majestic appearance, waving the Ling family and the Shenlong flag, and walked with a serious face.

Just walked and stopped, and spent the night in a village on the way, and came to Linhe Village in Tianlan Township at noon the next day.

That's right, Zhao Hu's Zhixing was directly divided into the place near the countryside of Lingwu City, far away from the center and adjacent to other counties.

I won't talk about staying away from the center, after all, everyone knows that the Ling family is working hard to get rid of the Ling family where Ling Wucheng is located. The old retainers' fiefs are all trying their best to transfer them to other townships, let alone newcomers like Zhao Hu.

But it's a little hard to say that it is adjacent to other counties, not to mention that half of Tianlan Township is a semi-subservient local tyrant. Even the proximity to Tokai County is a bit speechless. Well, the so-called semi-surrender is that you can pay tribute every year if you admit that you are your courtiers, but you can't touch my territory, and whether to send troops to fight or not depends entirely on the mood at the time.

Originally, these local tyrants wanted to be as independent as the independent tyrants of other townships, but who let them be adjacent to Donghai County? In desperation, he had to semi-surrender to the Ling family.

Tokai-gun is one of the two counties in Tokatsu Province that do not have a strong lord. This county is not rich in mountains and mountains, but there is a national highway that connects the east and west. There are also several good ports, so the war in Tokai-gun is concentrated on this national highway and several ports.

It stands to reason that it has nothing to do with the Ling family's side, after all, the more than 200,000 stone lords of the family cannibalize each other are too late, where can they care about the trouble of the Ling family? And also because of the existence of this Tokai County. On the contrary, the local tyrants of Tianlan Township were semi-subjugated to the Ling family, and the Ling family nominally owned Tianlan Township completely, which could be regarded as a contribution to the Ling family's occupation of ten of the seventeen townships in Donglai County.

But if you really want the Ling family to make a decision, you can't wait to throw away Tianlan Township directly, and you don't want one-tenth of the territory! Anyway, there is now an additional inkstone township, and the number of ten townships is still maintained.

The reason why this is the case is not because of the proximity to Donghai County, after all, there are more than 200 million stone lords, and there is a local tyrant below. Few people can occupy national highways and ports to collect taxes and live, and what if others can't live like they are poor? Naturally, the persimmons are looking for soft pinching, and they are looking for the local tycoons of Tianlan to ask for money to live.

At the beginning, some of the lords who failed to compete for the national highway and port were ready to kill the local tyrants in Tianlan Township. occupies Tianlan Township, but the Ling family can allow those fleas to jump and bite behind their buttocks, but they don't allow rats to jump and bite behind their buttocks, so they will naturally suppress such behavior.

It's just a pity that under the decision to suppress the top five, the large and small forces of the entire Dongsheng Country. Even the large and small forces around Dongsheng Kingdom have the same purpose, so the Ling family will give up halfway inexplicably every time.

The Tianlan native tyrant who was crushed in the middle. After coming down a few times, I found that I had no benefit from joining the Ling family, and I almost wiped out my family! Therefore, he also made a semi-surrender, restricting the expansion of the Ling family while suppressing the invasion of Donghai County.

It's just that the lords of Donghai County, although they know that they can't occupy the land, they have other options, that is, just like the autumn harvest, the annual autumn harvest invades and harvests and retreats, so that they will not be beaten by the Ling family, and they can reap the benefits, why not?

But in this way, those looted tyrants will cry and make trouble! O head of the Ling family! Although I am semi-surrendered, I also pay tribute to you every year, do you see that I was robbed and didn't come to comfort me and not help take revenge? Don't blame me for not paying tribute!

The Ling family scolded directly, damn, I wish you didn't pay tribute! Lao Tzu led people to run over hard, and you guys will drag their feet when they help the bastards, so that Lao Tzu has no benefit from contributing money and efforts! Lao Tzu doesn't want this old lord's head, okay?

It's a pity, no, if you want to fulfill the long-cherished wish of the Ling family for many years, you must also look like the boss, otherwise you will throw away your subordinates when you encounter danger and trouble, then don't want to subdue the dense local tyrants behind your buttocks! It's not a chance, but it's always a chance, isn't it?

Therefore, the Ling family could only grit their teeth, and every time the local tyrants of Tianlan Township ransacked Donghai County, they would give some compensation and comfort to keep the local tyrants in a semi-surrendered state. As for sending troops to retaliate? Not interested.

And this also attracted the sweet-mouthed Donghai County forces, ensuring the invasion and looting after the autumn harvest every year, and also allowing the local tyrants in Tianlan Township to learn how to hide things to avoid the collection of the East China Sea forces, and how to cheat the daily habits of the Ling family to compensate.

Anyway, the entire Tianlan Township is in a mess, and Zhao Hu's Zhixing is actually placed in such a place, it is conceivable that it must not be a good thing.

Therefore, when Zhao Hu and others came, none of the local tyrants came forward, only the village leader of Linhe Village led a few of his subordinates to come over lazily, said a few words casually, and led Zhao Hu and them to see where the territory was located.

Under the guidance of the village head who didn't care much about people, Zhao Hu saw his own territory. The head of the village pointed to the land in front of him with an indifferent look and drew a circle: "The land from the other side of the river to the other end of Donghai County belongs to you." ”

Zhao Hu was directly dumbfounded, from this end of the river to the border of Donghai County is his own? Just kidding, right? That's three or four square kilometers of land! Although there is sparse farmland along the river, and the rest is all mountains and forests, this is too big, right? Definitely more than 100 stones!

It's just that Zhao Hu was shocked, but his partners were all furious: "Is there a mistake!" You are going to assign all the places adjacent to Donghai County to my family, Lord Zhao Hu! You can't mess around like this, the knowledge and deeds of my family are only a hundred stones, and such a huge area is already thousands of stones! Do you want my family to commit suicide and apologize?! ”

Zhao Hu shook, damn, it's actually thousands of stones? That's awesome, isn't it? As soon as he thought of this, he couldn't help but look at the planting space, only to find that there was no change in the planting space.

It's just that although Zhao Hu wanted such a big place very much, when he heard that his partner actually said that he would be asked to commit suicide, he immediately woke up and looked at the village head with a bad look.

"Hmph, I'm the head of Linhe Village, and I said that such a large piece of land only has an income of 100 stones, which is the income of 100 stones. Moreover, the extra land allocated is from my Linhe Village, and I have already submitted the paperwork to Ling Wucheng, and I believe that the adults in the city will not let go of such a good opportunity. So this Lord Zhao Hu, you are waiting to take over such a piece of Zhixing! After the village head finished speaking, he shook his hand very proudly. led a few strong men away.
