The Turkic people who appeared on the ground of the Tang Dynasty did not look like they had good intentions.

Of course, Li Ran did not lie.

When these Turks walked in front of them, they dismounted, and even bowed their heads and bowed with the etiquette of the Central Plains.

Xian Hui'er was stunned on the spot, stunned for a long time and unable to speak...... During this trip to the fiefdom, her three views were almost shattered into slag.

"My lord, we've been waiting for you for two days."

"Ashina Qiyun called you here?" , Li Ran looked at the captain of this Turkic cavalry.

is not a pure-blooded steppe nomad, and the shadow of the Han people can be vaguely seen at the eyebrows, commonly known as mixed-race children.

Usually such people were used as slaves in Turkic tribes...... He was branded with fire on his forehead, proving that his guess was very correct.

Of course, now he is free...... Moreover, it is one of the armed escort forces of Li Ran's fiefdom.

"Yes, my lord, Ashina Qiyun has entrusted us to greet you."

The cavalry captain was respectful and humble, and had to admit that he had learned good manners.

Half a year ago, Li Ran asked Ashina for a group of people...... Those who were Han Chinese slaves of the Turkic tribes, or Hu-Han slaves.

Paid for purchase, of course, the silver did not cost much.

After all, under his guidance, Ashina Choyun successfully became the supreme heir of the Turkic Khan, and his power was very large, reaching the level of being under one person, and it would not be long before he could replace him.

So just a few slaves, Ashina can't wait to return the favor.

It is worth mentioning that the number of armed forces in Li Ran's fiefdom is ...... Four thousand!

A mixed team of 4,000 Han slaves, Hu-Han mixed races, and Tang Dynasty border rangers, even Pei Min is highly recognized in terms of martial arts alone...... Over the past year, this guy can't stay at home like Li Ran, and will stuff a line to the side from time to time, breaking through the limits of his martial arts, and helping him train by the way.

Therefore, the self-protection force is very abundant, and the only prayer of the Turks is to hope that they will not provoke this fierce and vicious team.

In addition to ordinary cold weapons, there is also a flintlock pistol in each hand, which comes and goes like the wind.

"Your name is Zhang Long, right, Pei Min mentioned your name to me, and now you are the captain of the cavalry regiment."

Obviously, after the other party got rid of the slave status, he definitely didn't want to mention the previous Turkic name, so Li Ran was as good as a stream, and after receiving the news brought back by Pei Min, he chose a new name for the selected guard officers.

For example, Zhang Long.

It's not uncommon for the rest to be called Dynasty Mahan, right?

In short, this territory is the masterpiece of his graffiti, and it is also the result of the implementation of his ideas...... From the system to the economy to everything visible to the naked eye.

This year, he was far away in Luoyang, but he did not relax the construction of the fiefdom at all.

The acceptance results are satisfactory.

Accompanied by Zhang Long, Li Ran and his entourage entered the castle, and through immigration and gathering of displaced people, plus measures such as ransom Han slaves from the Turks, the population of the castle has exceeded 10,000.

A veritable important town outside the Seychelles!

"Da Lang, this, is this really our fiefdom!"

Xian Hui'er was dumbfounded again, she never thought that she could see a copycat version of Luoyang City in the wild land outside the Saiwai.

No, it's even more relaxed than Luoyang City...... The flow of people is orderly, and the various municipal facilities are very reasonable.

"Yes, I asked Huang Youcai to take someone to implement the plan, that guy is a talent, of course, during this time, I secretly sent a lot of people to take care of it here."

Li Ran smiled, to tell the truth, thanks to the expansion of the working class, talents from various industries were naturally selected, and they were all entrusted with Li Ran's blessings, and when they helped him do things, they worked very hard.

That night, the city was full of jubilation.

This magical place, which has undergone countless changes over the years, has finally welcomed its owner.

Li Ran moved in smoothly and accepted the new rights structure...... Although he had the final say on his territory, he still appointed consuls and subordinate officials.

The composition of the team is very intriguing.

There was almost no scholar class, mainly engineering talents trained in the early stage, mixed with a small number of merchants and Turkic Han slaves.

Since it is a change, of course, it should be changed thoroughly...... Even the promotion system of subordinate officials is constantly promoted from the grassroots officials, mainly based on administrative experience.

In a word, the small court.

It's not that Li Ran has ambitions to do something, but he must make this circle a model.

While ensuring its own operation, it provides new governance experience for the power center of Datang...... If, if there is a real need.

Now, it's time to relax and enjoy the fruits of the year.

"Dalang, I can't believe my eyes."

Li Xianhui rarely drank mare's milk wine, and her eyes were bright, like stars in the sky.

His husband is really a man among the gods.

"It's only been a year, and in the future, there will be even more magical changes, of course, not considering expanding the territory for the time being...... The status of the county marquis is very good, so as not to make noise from those old goods in the court. ”

"Well, my father often said that it is difficult to reconcile the mouths of hundreds of officials."

Xian Hui'er snuggled in his arms and murmured, "I thought it would be good to accompany my father in Luoyang City, but when I arrived here today, I felt like I was back home...... Dalang, sure enough, the place with you is the best. ”

This dog food is well fed, Li Ran smiled, "Silly girl, this is our home...... Let's stay here for a few more days, I will also deal with the details of the territory, and when the weather turns cold, I will go back to Luoyang for the winter, after all, the outdoor climate is still too harsh for Zheng'er. ”

Xian Hui'er nodded naturally, of course, she didn't notice a trace of worry flashing in Li Ran's eyes.

The old man's complaints about the officials are getting more and more.

In the past, he had a firm foothold and needed the support of the ministers of the DPRK and China, but now that his foundation is solid, he naturally wants to grasp the power and implement the policy ideals in his heart.

It's not about wildness, it's about human nature.

It's just that none of the current officials in the DPRK and China are pulled by him, and it is difficult to have one heart if you want one.

Besides, the complaints are mutual, while Li Xian is dissatisfied with the hundred officials, it is certain whether the hundred officials have their own little Jiujiu in their hearts.

Tsk, from Wu Zetian to Li Xian, the political situation in the Tang Dynasty is really a time when it never stops.

Of course, if he is not in his position and does not seek his own government, Li Ran just guards his own one-third of an acre.

It's just that he has such a face, since he has arrived outside the Saiwai group, how can the 'friends' around him not come to say hello.

Seven days later, a convoy of wagons and horses appeared outside the territory.

The banner was from Wuxian...... The man at the head of the man wrapped in his jacket, dressed in crimson, was infinitely comical as a man.

However, if it is a woman, it is very reasonable.

Unexpectedly, the first person to visit him turned out to be Wu Qingying.

Things have changed, and there are no entanglements between Li Ran and her, just as she is Xian Hui'er's best friend.

Besides, in the past year, all kinds of exchanges between his fiefdom and Wuxian have been very frequent, and they are proper allies.

Therefore, Xian Hui'er personally came out to greet her, and the two women chattered excitedly, so that Li Ran, the main master, was left aside.

Of course, this has to be generous.

Li Ran consciously acted as a retinue and walked behind him, until Zhang Long came quickly and brought a new news.
