The fourth duke of the kingdom was elected, and the whole country celebrated. The Kingdom Weekly published a large number of photographs and deeds of Stone Beak, providing a comprehensive report on his contributions to the kingdom over the years.

The banquet in the palace lasted all night, and on the second day, when the nobles woke up from their drunkenness and went home to clean up, many people ran back to the inner courtyard of the palace to watch the excitement.

On this day, the lords of the marquis and above distribute cars.

The nobles can still receive some supplies from the town every month, most of which are beer, drinks, paper towels, MSG, soap, laundry detergent and the like. Sometimes Lin Ji is in a good mood, and he will also distribute some household appliances and furniture according to the different levels and the current power supply situation of Chaolin City. This is the first time that cars have been distributed.

More than two dozen cars were parked in the inner courtyard for a dozen or so dukes and marquis to choose from. Of course, according to convention, it was the duke who picked it first. The marquis will not be idle if he picks the rest, and many offices and major organs of the palace can apply once in the name of the public, and it depends on the mood of the forest trails that can be granted to whoever can be granted in the end.

Seeing the three dukes present at the scene, the arc and the stone beak rushed to the largest minibus at the scene, Lin Ji had to explain the classification and purpose of the car.

"That car can fit your family and your security secretary, but it's for carrying passengers. Its seats, trim, and performance design are not as good as these cars. This kind of low chassis is better and more stable in the city or on cement roads. This kind of vehicle is called an off-road vehicle, and it can run a little dirt road or slope. There is such a design because their fuel consumption is different, you have to think about your fuel rationing, and if it is not enough, you have to spend your own money to buy it......"

Lin Ji casually explained, and everyone gradually got to know these cars, and soon they went to see the situation of various cars separately. Most of them have already learned to drive, and some have even taken it for a test drive.

Before they started to choose, Lin Ji pointed to the five off-road lanes on the side: "You don't have to pick those five, I'll give them to the Zhu Monkey." ”

The vermilion monkey is far away in Killer Whale City, and it is necessary for Lin Ji to help him pick it first. Otherwise, he won't be able to give him the leftovers. It's just that when everyone silently went to count, they found that the number of five cars was a little wrong.

The only dukes and marquis outside are the vermilion monkey, the Izumi and the roasted sun in the grassland. Everyone can vaguely guess that the fourth car will be sent to Black Mountain City, because there are Ying and Ji Xiaoyue there. But to whom is the fifth car given?

Ji Xiaoyue made a great contribution in the Battle of Dongyi. The previous eldest princess was just a title, and the various treatments were not customized. Now the kingdom has redefined princesses and princes, clarifying their ranks, the size of their guards, etc. Princesses and princes are each treated differently in three classes. The third class is given from birth, the second class has an independent mansion, and the first class has an independent title.

Lin Meng, Lin Ping'an and others can only enjoy third-class treatment, and Ji Xiaoyue was named Princess Taishan and enjoyed the first class exclusively. This can be regarded as Lin Ji's reward for her.

Although Eagle is only an earl, he is the stepfather of Lin Ji. If you add a princess of Taishan, it makes sense for Lin Ji to send a car over.

But the fifth car is not known to anyone.

Everyone took a test drive, and as a result, Po Tu picked a pickup truck, Stone Beak picked an off-road, and Arc picked an SUV. However, after picking his own, he immediately used the name of the Government Council to take the minibus and a few vans away. Seeing this, Po Tu also pulled the two trucks and the remaining pickup trucks to the Military Yuan. The last remaining marquis had to pick up other cars.

The most eye-catching are research institutes at all levels, because each national research institute has allocated a car to the forest site, nominally for their research, but many people think that these people will not be willing to dismantle the car for research.

At the end of the car distribution, Lin Ji also ordered someone to send out the car he picked out first. One car went to killer whales, one to Maozhou, one to Montenegro City, and two to the grassland.

Another car sent to the grassland was given to Yuan Xiao.

Yuan Xiao is an earl. But he, the foreign minister, has been on the grassland for eight years.

Hearing that this was the result, the arc's face was a little dark.

In the first battle of Dongyi, although the kingdom won a great victory, captured a lot of prisoners, and included the entire lower reaches of the Yellow River into the territory, but this battle still cost a lot. After the war, the pension, the placement of prisoners, and the restructuring of the Montenegrin tribes, etc., still cost the kingdom a lot of materials.

By the autumn of this year, everyone could feel that life was a little tight.

After the frost fell, Lin Ji saw that Xiaobai was still sullen and decided to accompany Xiaobai out for a walk.

"Go hunting." Lin Ji greeted Xiao Bai with his bow and arrow, and Xiao Bai immediately jumped up and went straight to the zoo behind the palace. It didn't take long to bring in the white horse, the elephant and the saber-toothed tiger he had raised.

The white horse has not been ridden for a long time, and it has already become fat and strong, and it is impossible to see it. The elephants are well served by elephant slaves, but their coats are of excellent color. The white-haired saber-toothed tiger of Tiger Aman is dead, and now this saber-toothed tiger has given birth to a small white saber-toothed tiger. This saber-toothed tiger is not close to it because of its bad coat color, but it is still a bit wild, and it must be more sensitive than a dog when taken out to hunt.

As the guards pressed the tripod on the elephant, Xiaobai roared, and the ghost eagle couple took turns to fall from the roof of the palace, and one wing stood side by side on the tripod.

Lin Ji was lightly armed and brought only a few guards. As soon as he said hello, he rode a white horse to the duke's palace with a stone beak.

Stone Beak was learning to drive in the Duke's Palace, and when he heard that Lin Ji was going to hunt, he was about to go out in the car, and he saw that Lin Ji and his party were riding livestock, so he stopped the car, and led his elephant out to the elephant that Xiaobai rode as a companion, and he took a bow and arrow and rode a horse, and followed Lin Ji out of the city with only three or five attendants.

The two of them walked out of the north gate with their attendants, and then hurried all the way east along the road on the north shore of Gou Lake, and after running twenty or thirty kilometers, they entered the long grass by the lake.

"A few days ago there was a report that there were tigers in the grass in this area. He also came out and injured people. "The forest trail stopped by the lake and looked at the clear waterway of the lake in autumn.

There is a large area of farmland not far behind here, and more than ten kilometers to the east, it can be regarded as a protected area set up by the kingdom, but because it is close to Chaolin City, this area is considered a second-class protected area, but wildfires and logging are prohibited, and hunting is not prohibited.

Although the kingdom has a ban on hunting and some small groups do not hunt, in the secondary reserve, the beasts are not under any protection. It stands to reason that these places should be difficult for even jackals to see.

But it was in this place that tigers appeared.

Stonebeak patted the quiver and said, "We'll just hunt it." ”

Lin Ji said: "We came out to kill it." A few days ago, the militia came here to search, but they didn't find it, and the configuration we brought today is relatively complete, so we shouldn't let it run again. ”

With a wave of his hand, Xiaobai led the saber-toothed tiger into the grass, drove the ghost eagle couple into the sky, and then let the guards scatter in all directions, and the forest trail and the stone beak were replaced by the elephant's back, and the bow and arrow were ready. Chen Li and another guard also took out their guns. The rest depends on the performance of a few pets.

Stone Beak looked at Lin Ji's bow and arrows and said, "They say that you have made great progress in the bow and arrow in the past few years?" ”

Using a bow and arrow in front of Stone Beak is actually not much different from getting an axe from Banmen, and Stone Beak is still the first-rate marksman in the kingdom at present. After he became a duke, I am afraid that no one will dare to challenge him.

Lin Ji said: "The gun was given to them, and I wanted to learn something else." Just a workout. But that's not the point......"

Lin Ji felt that it was better not to talk about bows and arrows in front of the stone beak. The advantage of talent can be caught up through the efforts of the day after tomorrow, if you meet a talent better than you, and work harder than you, then it is better to rest, no need to compare. Stone beak is talented and hard-working.

Lin Ji practiced bows and arrows for half an hour at most every day, and it was also a shooting range practice, compared to a person like Stone Beak who fought on the battlefield all day, his little effort was nothing.

When he said this, Stonebeak didn't give him face.

"The point is, it's only twenty or thirty kilometers away from Chaolin City, and there are tigers, have you ever thought about what the problem is?"
