Ten miles south of Mocheng City. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

At this time, it was afternoon, the sky was still good, the warm sun made people soft, and many pedestrians in a hurry leaned against the courtyard wall of the post station, lazily resting in the warm sun.

A puff of smoke rose from the south, and hundreds of ragged people appeared in the scattered dust. A strong man in the lead looked at the post station from a distance, obviously showing a relieved expression.

"There should be a ten-mile pavilion ahead, after this pavilion, you can reach Jimo in another hour's journey! Let's hold on for a while, and when we get to the pavilion, we can rest for the time being, eat some dry food, and regain our strength before we can go again! ”

There was a burst of cheers from the crowd, and most of the people in this group were old people, women and children, and after a long journey, it was obvious that everyone was a little tired, and they were all happy when they heard that they were about to arrive at the place, and they could rest for a while.

Everyone rushed to the side of the post station, and the leader stepped forward to politely greet the pedestrians who were resting here, and then beckoned everyone to find an open place to rest. The strong man settled down everyone, and together with a few juniors, he came to the side of several men who looked like merchants, sang a promise politely, and asked, "A few mulberry zi are invited." We came from Mount Tai and heard that Jimo issued a new decree, where there are outsiders, they can get ten acres of land, and the seeds of farm tools are provided by the government, but the unknown rumors are true? ”

One of the older leaders of several merchants looked at the strong man, and saw that although he was in tattered clothes and dusty, he was magnificent, and he looked like an awe-inspiring and inviolable feeling, and he was quite polite, so he couldn't help but feel good, so he nodded and said, "This matter is not false. Those who come to take refuge are called tun households, which are organized according to households, and each household can get 50 acres of land. For those who are tuned households, they do not need to pay taxes in the current year, and pay 30 taxes in the following year, and the excess grain can be purchased by the government at market prices, and there is no other tax; The government provides rice seeds for farming, and production tools such as cattle are distributed by the government according to the tun, and the tun households take turns to use them. ”

After listening to the elder's words, the strong man and several juniors all showed ecstatic expressions on their faces: "It's really good! ”

The elder looked at the ecstatic group with a smile on his face, obviously not the first time he had encountered this situation: "If someone from the tunhu joins the army, the whole household will be exempted from taxes, and there will be priority to use tools to plough cattle; In addition, there is a military salary to be paid for joining the army, and it is said that the monthly salary is 300 yuan, even if you are not engaged in farming, it is enough for the family to eat and wear! ”

The elder looked at the somewhat tempted appearance of several people, and spoke again: "However, I heard that the selection in the army is very strict, and those who are not physically strong cannot be selected. ”

Hearing this, several juniors were a little hesitant, but they still looked eager to try. One of the juniors spoke: "Even if I can't wait to be selected, our Brother Zhang will definitely be shortlisted easily!" After speaking, he looked at the strong man who was in the lead, and there was some admiration in his eyes, and the rest of the people also nodded in agreement.

Seeing this, the elder was a little curious, and looked at the strong man surnamed Zhang: "A certain strong man is heroic and extraordinary, and he is indeed a little heroic, but how can he be sure that he will be selected?" You need to know that you don't even know anything about the assessment standards! ”

Before the strong man could reply, the young man who spoke just now hurriedly replied: "Our eldest brother Zhang used to fight against the Hu people in the border army of Bingzhou, and he was the first in every war, and he had accumulated merit to do Dubo!" It's a pity that his hometown was destroyed by the Red Turban Rebellion, and Brother Zhang wanted to go back to his hometown to take care of his mother, so he followed the villagers to wander around, otherwise maybe they would be generals now! ”

The elder was in awe when he heard this. In the army, the rank of captain and even commander is actually still a non-commissioned soldier, at most a soldier of different ranks; But Du Bo is the commander of the hundred-man team, and he can basically be regarded as a low-level officer in the army! In the army, the merit examination is very strict, and usually the officers are held by the children of the family, if there is no background, only by virtue of military merit to be promoted to Dubo, then there must be great merit! And in order to serve his mother, this person is willing to give up his hard-won official position, thinking that he is a person of filial piety. The Xia Dynasty advocated filial piety, so it was extremely worthy of respect in terms of bravery and filial piety.

"It turns out that Your Excellency is so extraordinary, if you want to come to the assessment, you must be embarrassed, you are old and disrespectful!"

The strong man surnamed Zhang hurriedly excused himself: "Don't dare to be an elder and praise falsely, Han is just a martial artist!" ”

The elder replied, "I didn't know that Your Excellency had such a skill; Even so, it would be a waste to participate in the military election again. ”

The strong man surnamed Zhang asked curiously: "In addition to the military election, is there any other channel that can't be successful?" ”

The elder smiled slightly: "It is said that the king of the North Sea is also selecting personal guards, if he can join the personal guards, not to mention the generous monthly salary, he can still get an additional hundred acres of fertile land, and the officials will hire special people to cultivate on his behalf, and the children of the family can also be given priority to join the army; It's just that the selection criteria are a hundred times more difficult than ordinary selection! I didn't know what you were capable of before, so I didn't mention the matter of personal guards; Since Your Excellency is brave and has the experience of leading soldiers, you must give it a try to the pro-guard camp! ”

After hearing this, the strong man surnamed Zhang straightened up, his eyes narrowed slightly and looked in the direction of Jimo, and secretly remembered the three words "Qinwei Battalion" in his heart.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※

At this time, Zhao Min was scratching his head in the county office. During this time, there were a lot of things, and I had to deal with the change of regime in Jimo. Cheng Bi has already asked Shao Qi to secretly send people to an island overseas in Donglai to be released, Zhao Min wrote to the Qingzhou Thorn History Mansion in the name of inspecting Beihai, stating what happened in Jimo, of course, the content of the original Jimo order Cheng Bi to check was brushed over. In the above letter, he asked Hu Zhen, the former Cheng of Jimo County, to take over the post of Jimo Ling, and Xia Houjie to take over Hu Zhen's county position. Zhao Min and Hu Zhen have reached an agreement on this matter: Hu Zhen served as the county commander, and Zhao Min arranged some people to fill the original official positions in the county, anyway, because of the fall of Cheng Bi, a large number of county officials served by Cheng Bi's cronies have gone into the wilderness, and there are many positions; As for Xiahou Jie, because he has already raised filial piety and honesty, and he is a local person in Jimo, it can be said that he is justified as a county leader. Of course, the most important thing is that now Zhao Min treats Jimo as a base for development, and he himself will return to the dynasty sooner or later, and when the time comes, he can't leave by himself and throw away the place that has been in business for a long time, right? Xiahou Jie is his maternal uncle, there is no need to worry about loyalty, and only by developing here can Zhao Min's foundation be maintained. Fortunately, Hu Zhen is also a smart person, seeing that Zhao Min is powerful and has the Xiahou family as his aid, the development in Jimo is already unstoppable; Besides, Zhao Min's development does not have much impact on Hu Zhen herself, and it can be regarded as a courtesy to herself, at least much better than when Cheng Bi was in power, so he agreed to Zhao Min's request.

Zhao Min discussed the matter of military reform with Zhao Yun, Wei Ying and several other military commanders, surprisingly no one opposed Zhao Min's restructuring proposal, and I don't know whether it was because Zhao Yun and others were loyal enough or everyone also had the idea of elite soldiers, in short, this matter was implemented very smoothly, the chief officer had no opinion, and the soldiers were a little disgusted with the days of licking blood from the knife edge because most of them were born as thieves, and they were enthusiastic about disarming and returning to the field, and the number of people who were willing to be classified as tunhu was half more than expected! In the end, it was only after repeated screening that the number of troops was finally maintained at more than 1,300 people. However, since there was no resistance from the elite soldiers, Zhao Min didn't bother to worry about it, so it was logical to hand over the matter to Zhao Yun to be responsible, and the layman did not manage the insider.

As for the matter of Tuntian, Zhao Min also pushed it to Meng Hou, on the grounds that he was not familiar with government affairs, and he still needed to study hard, so he turned a blind eye to Meng Hou's disdain, and became a shopkeeper with peace of mind.

What makes Zhao Min scratch his head now is not external affairs. Because of the smooth implementation of various policies, the "momentum" in the task system was completed unconsciously, and 50 points were successfully started. Who knew that the main quest fell silent, but a new regular quest made him feel inexplicable.

Mission Name: Jade

Duration of the mandate: one year

Brief Description: You have shown extraordinary talent in various matters, but this is by no means a reason to give up on training yourself, you must cultivate both internally and externally to achieve great skills! Please increase your stat value to more than double your initial attribute value within one year.

Reward: 200 points

Zhao Min grabbed his scalp in a daze. What does such a task mean? He had long known that the attribute value could increase after training, for example, Wei Ying had increased his martial arts value by 3 points because of his hard training during this time, and Shao Qi's intelligence had also increased by 2 points; But you have to double yourself...... It's a little too hard, isn't it? Zhao Min has never been a particularly diligent person, and it is extremely rare to practice diligently every day like now, and it is almost impossible to double the amount of training he needs without external pressure. But the task had already come, and he couldn't choose to accept it, so he had to try it head-on. Besides, the reward points for this task are really not low, and it is still worth working hard for.

"Fortunately, the original attribute value is low enough, and there is still a year to work on!" Zhao Min thought silently, and glanced at his attribute value by the way.

Name: Min Zhao

Identity: The fourth prince of the North Sea

Command: 24

Force: 17

Intelligence: 23

Politics: 24

Characteristics: None

Compared with the initial value, the force has increased by 5 points, probably because the original value is too low, and he is in the period of growing his body, so the growth momentum is relatively rapid; The commander value has increased by two points, which is not surprising, after all, there are more people under his command; Intelligence and politics have each increased a little, and I think it should be the credit of the wisdom of Cheng Bi and the reform of Tuntian. Zhao Min did the math, the initial total attribute value was 79 points, and doubling it means that the total attribute value will increase to 158 points; Now compared with the initial time, it has increased by 9 points, but it has taken more than half a month, so it should not be too difficult to complete the task, but it is definitely not slack, after all, he is almost sixteen years old, who knows when the momentum of this surge will slow down, and he is definitely not willing to try the price of not completing the task.

"It seems that in the future, the exercise of one's own physique must not be relaxed, and if you have time, you still have to come up with more ideas and think of some improvement policies!" Zhao Min smacked his lips and thought in his heart.

On the other hand, his points have broken through to 215 points, but Zhao Min still hesitates and doesn't know how to use them. Because the 500 points from summoning a famous general are still far away, Zhao Min really doesn't dare to expect when he will be able to make up enough points to summon the next talent; Taking item rewards as an example, the effect of the storage ring drawn last time can only be regarded as chicken ribs, and he can't believe his luck. As for the slot machine that completely relies on luck, either 100 or 0, Zhao Min really can't muster the courage to try, he is not rich enough to take 10 points to listen to the sound of water. At least the drawings drawn can be put into production immediately, but sooner or later they can come in handy, because science and technology are the primary productive forces, which has been proven by thousands of years of practice. More than 200 points are placed there, and it is really heart-wrenching to see that it cannot be converted into help, after all, modern people understand the true meaning of financial management, and money stored in the bank is just a number, and it can never increase in value; Only by putting it into circulation can it be possible to benefit again.

Thinking of this, Zhao Min gritted his teeth: "Just try the 'technology exchange', it's not necessarily possible to say what surprises it can bring!" ”
