Chapter 54: The Border City (1)

"The king returns, kneel to greet the king." The people spontaneously formed two teams, from the city gate to the city for several miles, and there were people kneeling along the way.

Ji Fa's line first entered the border city, Ji Fa stood on top of the line, neatly dressed, with a happy expression, followed by the soldiers of the Zhou State trained in an orderly manner, walked neatly, and slowly moved forward, Ji Fa looked back, and was very satisfied in his heart, so Ji Fa kept smiling and let the people on both sides get up, and walked all the way, and the people stood up all the way, and they all looked at the king respectfully and politely, and some women came to see the king with their children, and the children shouted sweetly: "The king." ”

Every now and then, Ji Fa would give them a smile, and many people, both respectful and curious about what the king looked like, quietly raised their heads to look at the afterglow in their eyes, so the people saw Ji Fa's appearance, and they admired it in their hearts.

"The king is really a king."

"I feel that the king is very friendly."

"The king is really handsome, and he is majestic."

The people respected this king more and more, and they all heard that the king personally led his troops to defeat the Inurong tribe outside the city, captured two Inurong generals, and worshiped Ji Fa even more, so the people began to shout spontaneously.

"King Shengwen Shenwu, a big victory over the dog Rong."

The call is getting higher and higher, the people are cheering and shouting happily after hearing it, Ji Fa chased all the way, all the way was praised by the people, Zhu Wanyue rode a horse to lead the way in front, all the way to the soldiers of Zhou Guo, Zhu Wanyue and his soldiers, all the heart is beautiful, although he is praising his own king, but he followed the king to win this battle, isn't it also with the light, so they are all elated, for a while they forget the pain on the battlefield just now, Zhu Wanyue led the way in front of the king to rest in the post house, Originally, Zhu Wanyue planned to invite the king to stay at his home, but he didn't expect Ji Fa to say.

"According to the laws of the Zhou Kingdom, the Lone King must also abide by it."

So Zhu Wanyue couldn't persuade him, so he ordered someone to quickly convey the post house, ordering them to clean it immediately, sprinkle water for three miles, and sprinkle fragrant flower petals to welcome the arrival of the king.

Ji Fa looked at the houses where the people lived along the way, although they were simple, but looking at the faces of the people, they were all full of smiles, and they were all the kind of smiles that came from the heart, very sincere and true, Ji Fa's heart felt a little better.

"I really want to help them build better houses and make them feel happier when they live in them, but after thinking about the lack of productivity and technological power in this era, it is difficult to achieve it for a while, so let's do it gradually."

However, at this time, Ji Fa already had an idea in his heart, and planned to let the people of Zhou State live a better life, starting with food, clothing, housing and transportation.

At this time, Ji Fa saw alternative people in the crowd of the people, and found that they were gorgeously dressed, and the people around them were clearly distinguished, and they all seemed to have stomachs, which was a very rare thing in this era, because most of the people were very reluctant to eat enough, and some people couldn't eat enough, the people of Zhou were a little better, and many people in Shang were still living in dire straits, how could there be such a wave of rich and noble people?

"General Zhu."

Zhu Wanyue saw the king shouting to him, and hurriedly rode to the king's side.

"What do you command, my lord?"

"Who are those people who are smiling and bowing down? Why is the dress so gorgeous, different from the people around you? ”

"Tell the king, that group of people are the descendants of the Xia Dynasty, exiled to the border city, after the Xia was destroyed by Shang, the Xia Wang clan, with the financial reports in the palace wandering around the country, this should be the descendants of the princes of the Xia Dynasty, so naturally the clothes are gorgeous, but the annual taxes are paid on time, and they pay twice the money to hire people to replace themselves, so it has always been considered a stable duty."

Ji Fa nodded, but he had another idea in his heart. He asked General Zhu to work hard, and led the way back to the post house to rest.

But he was thinking in his heart: "I'm afraid that my duty is stable, how long has it been since the Xia Dynasty fell, how can there be such a rich descendant?" And the life of the people of Zhou is obviously average, what do these people do to keep themselves rich? It's worth checking out. ”

So Ji Fa entered the line and told Shi Feng'er about it. Shi Feng'er was also very interested, and she said, "Master, since you want to know, Shi Feng'er will inspect it for you tonight." ”

"Feng'er, you... It's too dangerous, what if they have private soldiers? You are a weak woman, and you are hard to beat. Ji Fa said worriedly.

"Hmph, the king underestimates people, I used to be the most agile in the tribe, even the strong man grabbed the prey with me, not as fast as me, don't worry, you can just look at it, you can wait for my news in the post house tonight." As soon as Shi Feng'er's words fell, she left the line.

Ji Fa hurriedly chased out to investigate, but found that Shi Feng'er had blended into the crowd and could no longer be found.

Ji Fa had no choice but to give up, followed the soldiers and horses back to the post station first, and arrived at the gate of the post house, obviously this place was carefully cleaned, Ji Fa got off the line, Zhu Wanyue accompanied him, Ji Fa turned to him and said: "General Zhu, I want to trouble you to make a hard trip, arrange for all the soldiers to rest, replenish the forage of the horses, and let the horses have a good rest." ”

Zhu Wanyue said with a difficult face: "Dawang City has been besieged by dog Rong for many days, and there is no problem for the soldiers to rest and rest, but the military rations and horse grass are probably not enough. ”

Ji Fa was stunned for a moment, he felt very guilty in his heart, he forgot this, and only thought that this was Xiqi, he said: "Let's go and arrange for the soldiers to rest first, and the lonely king of grain and grass will find a way." ”

"It's the king." Zhu Wanyue's face was happy, and then he immediately led the troops to rest.

Ji Fa entered the room of the post house, many people came to kneel and serve, Ji Fa asked them to distribute their meals to their own soldiers, let them all go down to find the captain of the soldiers, after sending them, Ji Fa Pan sat in the room, thinking quietly.

"There are more than 1,000 soldiers in the city, plus the soldiers who defend the city, adding up to more than 200 soldiers, so the food and grass must be a problem, the soldiers will complain if they can't eat enough, and their morale will drop, no matter how gorgeous the rhetoric is, it can't be as good as the strength to let the soldiers eat well." Ji Fa thought to himself.

"I can leave the border city with my soldiers and return to Xiqi, but what about the grain and grass on the road? If you take it away from the border city again, what will happen to the soldiers in that city? Do you want to rob the people of food to eat? Or starve to death? ”

When Ji Fa thought of this, he regretted burning the grain and grass of the dog Rong a little, although it hit the morale of the dog Rong, but after the burning, there was no possibility for him to eat it.

Suddenly something occurred to him.

"Lan Ling, did I ask you to save two boxes for me the night before?"

"Yes, master, do you want me to release it for you?"

Ji Fa was overjoyed and said, "Hurry up, release these two boxes." ”

In the next second, two large boxes appeared in Ji Fa's room.

Ji Fa opened the two boxes and found that they were full of currency, cloth, and a small amount of grain and grass, and half of Ji Fa's joy just now was suddenly gone.

"It's just a drop in the bucket, and it won't solve any problems. But it's also something to eat, and something is better than nothing. ”

Ji Fa sat cross-legged on the ground again, thinking about how to raise food.

"By the way, aren't there descendants of the Xia King clan in this city, the currency in these two big boxes is enough to buy food for a thousand people, let's solve this big head first, save some food, and it will be enough for two thousand people."

Ji Fa thought about it, and he only had this idea for the time being, because he knew that in ancient times, large families would build warehouses, store grain in them, send people to clean and dry them every day, and clean up mice, so that they can be preserved for a long time, so large families often store a lot of grain in harvest years, and then wait until the famine year, take it out and eat, so that no matter what the year, these big families will not be affected. This is also the reason why the big families in ancient times were able to reproduce and develop.

So Ji Fa didn't plan to go first, and when Zhu Wanyue finished arranging the accommodation of the soldiers, he asked him to bring a few soldiers, carry these two boxes, and first distribute some of the cloth, grain and grass inside to the families of the soldiers who died in the city, and then the rest went to find the people of the Xia Wang family, Ji Fa originally thought that this matter would be solved smoothly, so he didn't take it to heart.

He took out the colorful teleportation flag and set a coordinate in the post house, just when he wanted to set the coordinates in Xiqi City, this is now that he is still in the border city, how can he return to Xiqi City to plant the flag? After thinking about it, forget it.

"Master, you need to plant a flag in Xiqi City, right?" Lan Ling's voice sounded at the right time.

"That's right, but I won't be able to go back to Xiqi for the time being, so I won't plug it in for the time being, and I'll set the coordinates after I go back." Ji Fa said.

"In this case, I can help you, so that you don't have to go back to Xiqi, and you can plant a flag in the border city to set the coordinates, of course, the coordinates of Xiqi." Lan Ling said in a sweet voice.

"Ahh Ji Fa instantly became excited.

"Hehehehe, of course the master has it." Lan Ling's voice laughed evilly.

Every time Ji Fa heard Lan Ling's voice laughing evilly, his heart would tremble for a while, because he felt that every time at this time, after Lan Ling's voice changed voice, there was nothing good.

"Say what's the conditions, see if I can accept it." Ji Fa calmed down and said.

"Hee-hee-hee, the master is getting smarter and smarter, Lan Ling likes the master more and more, it's like this, this is the value of defeating the country, anyway, the master still owes the system now, it's better to owe a little more credit... Anyway, they all have to return the system within the deadline, so why not pay a little more credit? Lan Ling Bang Ji said with an idea.

"Sure enough, the psychological side of adults is too dark, and the heart of this system is also very dark." Ji Fa complained.

"How much does it cost to plant a coordinate flag in this country?" Ji Fa asked helplessly.

"Hehehehe, Tong Suo is not bullied, Lan Ling needs 2 points of defeat to help plant the flag at a time, and the master can plant the flag anywhere in Xiqi City, or you can insert enough seven positions." Lan Ling said.

"2 points of defeat value, oh my God, my heart hurts, but it's acceptable, how can I use so many coordinates? It's not that my mouth is floating again, isn't it too wasteful to insert so many places in one place? What if I want to plant a flag somewhere else in the future? Ji Fa immediately said with concern.

"Is the master worried about this? Don't worry at all, the owner bought the colorful teleportation flag, and the system gave seven opportunities to help change the coordinates for free, so even if the owner wants to change the coordinates of the flag in the future, it doesn't matter, just tell Lan Ling, and Lan Ling will help you change it. Lan Ling said with a smile.

"Wow, it's great, it's very intimate, I finally feel that this defeated system is a bit humane." For the first time, Ji Fa praised the defeated system.

"Hehehehe, although the master said this is a bit of an insult to the defeated national system, but finally from the master's mouth, the first time he praised the defeated national system, Lan Ling will not criticize the master."

"Okay, master, where do you want to plant the flag in Xiqi City?"

"In the palace of Xiqi City, my dormitory."

"Okay, the master has already set the coordinates for you, and you can use the colorful teleportation flag to shuttle to the coordinate location at any time."

Ji Fa was a little happy in his heart, he couldn't wait to use the teleportation flag to go back, but when he thought about it, if the people in the palace suddenly saw that he was back alone, he would probably be frightened, so he thought about it, he still can't use this flag easily, at least not in front of people who are familiar with him, otherwise if it spreads, it will be terrible, and I, the king, will become a demon and a monster.

"Hehehehe, but it shouldn't matter if you go and tease Yongyun and Yongrou." Ji Fa immediately thought of a bad idea.

The royal palace in Xiqi City, the rooms of Yongyun and Yongrou.

"Oh, it's still comfortable to live with Rou'er, my own room is empty, and there is no one to talk to, now it's okay, when I can't sleep at night, I can talk to Rou'er."

Yongyun took off the outfit of the female officer and changed into the clothes he wore in the room.

Yongrou knelt at the table in a daze, hearing Yongyun's words, she didn't react, just quietly thinking about something, after Yongyun took off the female official's outfit, she didn't hear Rou'er's voice for a long time, and felt a little strange, and then she approached to see Yongrou, kneeling there in a daze, she felt funny, so she covered Rou'er's eyes from behind.
