Chapter 71: The Epic Battle Returns
Time passed little by little, and Fang Yun had one more follower by his side, and that was Ren Hongchang.
The identity of the princess Liu Wen is special, so she basically lives in a simple place, and Fang Yun doesn't want her identity to be known by the spies of those families before the big plan is implemented.
Today, Xinhuang County is an important smuggling route connecting the north and south, running through Bingzhou, Youzhou and Jizhou. In fact, many officials now know about the existence of this smuggling route, but considering that the profits they receive are twice as much as before, they also acquiesce to the existence of this route.
Of course, Fang Yun's existence was naturally discovered by the family, and Yuan Lord's people had already said in the court that they should send troops to kill him. However, Liu Hong is on Fang Yun's side, saying that the treasury has no money, whoever wants to fight will pay for it!
Who would do such a thankless thing, but if you want to say that the treasury has no money, everyone believes it, there have been a lot of natural and man-made disasters in recent years, and there are rebellions everywhere. Not long after the rebellion in Xiliang ended, in May, the center of Changsha District rebelled, and the imperial court also squeezed out some money, which allowed Sun Jian to go south to quell the rebellion.
Ou Xing was only a few thousand people, but Fang Yun had tens of thousands of armored soldiers under his command, and the imperial court really didn't have the money and food to crusade against him. Besides, the intelligence showed that Fang Yun had barely been out of Taihang Mountain, since he was so well-behaved, he shouldn't bother others.
It was impossible for Yuan to fight independently, so he could only watch this Fang Yun live a nourishing life, but he was depressed to death.
However, Yuan Valve did not do nothing, but there were more than several times more spies targeting Xinhuang County. At the same time, because of his relationship, other families have also invested in a considerable number of spies, but fortunately, the combat effectiveness of the dark department has been significantly improved. There has also been a great improvement in counter-reconnaissance and counter-espionage capabilities. So I finally found out nine out of nine spies.
Of course. Under the rule of Xinhuang County, almost all of them were from the Yellow Turban Army, and it was normal for outsiders to receive attention. Besides, when they learned that these spies would endanger their lives, they didn't need Fang Yun to take the initiative to organize, they would also spontaneously go on guard, and in the case of national vigilance, even if those spies had great ability, they could only lie dormant obediently.
As for Ren Hongchang beside Fang Yun. Although she is a palace maid, she is too young and there are thousands of palace maids who have entered the palace, who cares about a little palace maid?
At the beginning, Fang Yun was just out of humanitarianism, and of course it was not ruled out that he had some other bad thoughts, so he brought her back. Because of the rumors under the rule, I had to put it at home.
The original intention was to give her the identity of a steward and let her take care of everything at home. But as Xie Yuan got married, everything in the family was basically taken over by Xie Yuan. Of course, Ren Hongchang will also help out. But most of the time is still very leisurely.
In her spare time, this girl is sensitive and studious. I soon learned how to keep accounts and how to keep accounts. That's not all, she quickly showed a certain sensitivity to politics, although she didn't show it, she couldn't hide it from Fang Yun's 'eyes'.
According to the results of the system scan, in her attribute list, not to mention the new skill of 'Governance', there is also the characteristic of 'An Min' in the talent trait. I have to say, this girl is a genius!
So unconsciously, Fang Yun had an extra secretary by his side. Ren Hongchang learns quickly, although her young age is a hard injury, but she is good at summing up, and she is also good at introspection, striving to improve the things that are not good enough. During this time, with her help, Fang Yun's efficiency in handling government affairs has more than doubled.
What is rare is that she has also accumulated a lot of political experience, and when she is older, even if she is in charge, it is estimated that it will not be a problem. However, considering her gender and her special identity, I am afraid that it will be difficult to let it out.
Besides, if a lovely person is good by his side, just because his talent is good, he will be released, then he is too sorry for himself!
Time passed little by little, and Xinhuang County's defense and commerce finally reached the qualified standard, which also meant that Fang Yun had completed a side mission. The reward for the task is a random technical drawing, and the place where the single system cheats people is here, after all, as long as it is a technical drawing, it depends on luck.
Obviously, Fang Yun's luck this time was neither good nor bad, and what he opened was a drawing of the improvement of the catapult. However, those research freaks in the technical department already have a clue and have begun trial production, but they have not yet made samples. This drawing only reduces the workload of the technical department by about three or four days......
If you put it a year or two ago, this drawing would have been very valuable, but it took too much time to complete this side quest by yourself. Until today, Fang Yun has truly realized the preciousness of time!
When the defense and commercial attributes reached the standard, Fang Yun also began to devote all his rights and interests to development.
As the development level quickly increased to 500 points, another side quest was successfully completed, and about one stone of peanuts was obtained, and the system even came with a detailed description of peanut planting techniques.
If he could, what Fang Yun hoped to get was sweet potatoes, corn or potatoes, no matter how bad cassava. However, the result was peanuts, an oil crop, but overall the harvest was really good.
When Fang Yun was newly married, he asked the manager of the Zhen Chamber of Commerce to help him pay attention to Hu Shang's whether there were any crops he needed, such as cotton or peanuts.
In fact, just ten days ago, he got more than a dozen cold melons native to Africa, which we now call watermelons. As for the rest, there are no cotton and peanuts, maybe Hu Shang thinks these two commodities are not worth much, right?
When Fang Yun heard this, he immediately became angry, and directly asked the Zhen Chamber of Commerce to issue a reward, as long as he could find any kind of crop he listed, he would be rewarded with a hundred gold! It's all brass anyway, and it's not gold, and it's not heartache!
But as long as those crops can be obtained and cultivated, the actual benefits are in the tens of millions.
Peanuts and cold melons naturally began to be cultivated one after another, and Fang Yun looked forward to the day when every citizen in the territory would be able to afford to eat oil. In the past, the main reason why people did not eat oil was because the oil mainly came from animals, and ordinary people did not have so much money to buy it. It was only later that the edible oil extracted from rapeseed began to be able to buy a small amount of oil.
Seeing that August is approaching, the deadline is coming to an end, and the development degree of the territory has finally reached 600.
"Congratulations to the host for completing the main quest - expansion, increasing the territory defense to 600, commerce 600, development 600, and security at least 70 or more within one year. Reward 10 free attribute points, silver level lottery once! ”
"New Main Quest Generating ......"
"Epic Battle - Zhang Chun against Han, Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju launched a rebellion in Yuyang County, colluded with the Wuhuan people Qiu Liju, and sacked the two places of Youji; The host can choose from three different factions: Han, Rebel, and Neutral. Han army camp, the more rebels are killed, the higher the merit (you can apply to Liu Hong for a reward); In the rebel camp, the more Han soldiers are killed, the higher the merit will be, Zhang Chun's friendship will be obtained, and there will be a chance to gain the friendship of the Wuhuan people; The neutral camp can be ignored or join the war, no matter how you kill the soldiers on that side, you can get meritorious service, improve the attributes of the generals participating in the war after the war, and comprehend the talent characteristics with a small probability. (To be continued......)
PS: Actually, skipping a few months or years is this kind of trouble, and you have to explain what happened during this time slowly. There will even be a kind of jumping too much, so that it will be substituted for bad thoughts. However, if it is a description of a few days and a few days, it is inevitable that it will be verbose, after all, the development of the territory or something, basically spent in the construction and construction, the model is very fixed.
Epic battles happen, everyone has a day to express their opinions, which side to join the protagonist, and I will include it for reference if the support rate is high!
The third is to send it, thank you for your support!
