The hill at the foot of Li Zheng is considered to be the highest mountain in the vicinity, and when you stand on the top of the mountain, you can see that it is a withered yellow. Dead grass covered the entire eye like a carpet.

Except for a forest on the south side, which is on the way to the meadow, there are no tall trees in any other places.

Layers of hills of varying heights are intertwined, and between these hills, an irregular, but fairly wide meadow is formed.

Li Zheng took a closer look and asked Zhao Wudao: "There should be a water source in this grassland, right?" ”

"There's a source of water." Zhao Wu stood beside Li Zheng, pointed north to the grassland, and replied, "Just under that mountain, there is a small stream. Fu once had his servants dig a small pond there for people and livestock to use. ”

Li Zheng nodded with satisfaction, and said: "Although the terrain here is quite hidden, there is no danger to defend. If someone attacks, I'm afraid it won't be very stable. ”

"That's true." Zhao Wu replied: "This is part of the reason why Fu gave up this grassland. ”

"So what do you do to eliminate or improve this?" Li Zheng asked.

Zhao Wu shook his head: "There is no way for the servant to do anything other than to be attacked by a sneak attack." ”

Li Zheng shook his head and shook his head again: "The hills here are staggered, the terrain is complex, and the mountains are not high or dangerous. If someone is attacking, they can kill them from any place. You're right, the only way to do it is to do it. ”

As he spoke, Li Zheng looked at the various hills and said, "You can also choose a few of the most hidden cols with a good view and build some guard towers." ”

"But if you want to do this well, there is still a lack of manpower," Li Zheng sighed: "It's a lack of money." ”

Li Zheng is taking precautions.

Although he has nothing but a pasture now, this is his home base, and in the near future, this will be the cradle of all kinds of war horses.

Not to mention those precious war horses, they are war horses, as long as they have a certain number, they are a huge wealth and will definitely be coveted.

So at the beginning, make some preparations so that you don't get caught off guard.

After asking Zhao Wu a few more questions, Li Zheng waved him to leave, and he followed the ridge of the hill, ready to walk around the grassland.

Facing the cold wind, Li Zheng slowly walked knee-deep in the dry grass, thinking about the construction of the grassland while feeling the changes in his body.

The moment the system was turned on last night, Li Zheng involuntarily fell asleep. When I wake up in the morning, I already notice a huge change in my body.

The most obvious thing is that the wound on the arm that was originally aching is completely unharmed, and when I lift my sleeve, I see that there is not even a scar except for a little blood.

And the body is lighter, more flexible, and the whole body is light, as if it is about to fly off the ground.

With a fist swing, a whirl pierced the air.

"The strength is also greater!"

Consciousness sank into his mind, and in the column of Su zhì, it had become a first-order, and it was no longer the zero-order before the system was turned on yesterday. Come to think of it, that's where the changes in the body come in.

After carefully experiencing it, the comprehensive essence of the whole body should have doubled. The most obvious is strength, and at the same time, the brain is clearer, and everything is more organized than before. As for speed, endurance and flexibility, there has also been a big increase, and the specifics need to be carefully examined to know.

Li Zheng was very happy about these changes, but he was not surprised. His current appearance looks like he is no more than seventeen or eighteen years old, but his real age is actually past his age.

Rejuvenating has been experienced, and the change in physical strength is nothing. However, the system has the function of improving the body's comprehensive element, which still makes Li Zheng a little surprised and happy. After all, in such an era, the strength of the body has greatly improved people's ability to survive.

The War Rider system has been officially opened, and in addition to giving Li Zheng the enhancement on the body element, several functions have been activated. The most basic four functional options are only left with mount skills or gray, and the other mysterious options are also lit up as one, which is the mission system.

Li Zheng focused his attention on the task system, and after understanding the basic functions of the task system, he couldn't help but smile on his face.

The mission system is divided into two parts, one is the basic mission, which involves the construction of the base camp. The rewards for completing such tasks are all money.

This really made Li Zheng breathe a sigh of relief. The amount of money required to open the system and the memory of that mobile game must be very huge in the future. In this era, gold was very rare, and generally speaking, the vast majority of transactions were carried out using only copper coins. Don't look at Li Zheng's five hundred gold this time, then you have to see who the object is! That's the Fu family, a famous wealthy family in Liangzhou! And if it weren't for Li Zheng's insistent request, Fu Shi would also be ready to trade with five baht coins.

The bigger impact is that the money invested in the system is gone forever. There are too many things like this, which will have a huge impact on Li Zheng's future development, and he may not even be able to afford his subordinates at that time. What's more, it will affect the circulation of goods in the whole world, and there will be no money available, and it will return to the era of barter, which is a regression of civilization and a huge sin.

The emergence of basic tasks solves this problem at least to a certain extent. As long as the task is completed enough, even if it cannot fully meet the consumption of the system, there should always be seventy or eighty percent.

In addition to the basic tasks, there is also a special type of mission. This type of task is very broad and varied, and there is not much to describe in detail. Quest rewards are also very mixed, but most of them are related to the various functional options of the system.

After savoring the task system, Li Zheng memorized all the main points and then turned his attention to several other activated functions.

Consciousness swept over these functional options, and Li Zheng, who was about to experience it, suddenly couldn't help but be stunned. Then a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

But it turns out that these functions require actual carriers.

In other words, specialized buildings must be built in reality in order to fully develop all their functions and exert their light and heat.

After carefully understanding it again, Li Zheng breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, there are no special requirements for carrier buildings, except for some rigid requirements for the internal layout of the building, as long as it is a solid and independent building. Li Zheng stood there and thought about it, retracted his plan to browse the grassland, and turned around and walked down the hill.

Zhang Shan is not a craftsman, and he is not good at repairing houses. So he could only help cut the timber and deliver some materials on the side.

Seeing Li Zheng coming, he said with a bitter face: "Lord, you can't do this job, you better arrange a suitable errand for you." ”

Li Zheng smiled when he heard this. Zhang Shan is used to being a ranger, and he is really not suitable for the work of repairing houses, so he smiled and said, "There is just something for you to do." ”

Zhang Shan's eyes lit up, he didn't ask, and nodded hurriedly.

Since he has served the lord, he naturally wants to show his value and desire to be recognized, how can he show it if he has nothing to do?

"A certain grassland is just getting a pasture, and it needs to be revived, especially in need of manpower." Li Zheng said: "Zhao Wu, thirty of them is far from enough, at least fifty people are needed to build the shelves here in a short time." At the same time, the safety of the grassland must also be considered. You are a ranger and have a wide range of friends, see if you can find some like-minded friends to come and help? In the name of employment. ”

"Does the lord mean to hire some craftsmen or buy slaves? As for a friend, he knows something in Liangzhou, so you can ask, but his subordinates can't guarantee it. Zhang Shan pondered.

Li Zheng nodded: "It's best to buy slaves, and you can do the rest." ”

Zhang Shan nodded, pondered for a while, took two pieces of gold cakes, and prepared to leave. Li Zheng suddenly thought of one more thing, and hurriedly said: "Let's go to Lingzhou and buy fifty new slaves, this little food here is not enough to consume." ”

Zhang Shan said: "The lord has something to do, and his subordinates obey him." "I'm going to take this thing down as well.

Li Zheng smiled, shook his head and said: "Fu's Dock Fort must go in person to show sincerity, after you finish the matter, just bring people to help carry the grain outside the Dock Fort." ”

The status between Li Zheng and the Fu family is not equal, and it is an insult to the Fu family to send his subordinates if they don't go to each other when they have something to ask for.

Li Zheng naturally wouldn't do such a brainless thing.

Zhang Shan also quickly understood, and scratched his head embarrassedly.

After giving Zhao Wu an order, the two of them drove a carriage, carried gold cakes, went out of the woods, and headed south towards Lingzhou.

Outside Lingzhou City, Zhang Shan went to the city to do business, and Li Zheng took over Zhang Shan's work, drove the carriage, and went to Wubao.

Driving the carriage, Li Zheng really doesn't know how to do it. But fortunately, the road around Lingzhou is flat, otherwise I don't know how many times the carriage will turn over.

Fortunately, Li Zheng's physical flexibility and coordination after advancing were much stronger, and he quickly found a way to control the carriage.

In just half a moment, they were outside the dock fort.

Please ask the Fu family soldiers guarding the dock fort to go inside, and after a while, I saw a few people walking out of the dock fort, led by an acquaintance Zhou Fei.

"It turned out to be Steward Zhou, and he was polite."

Li Zheng waved his hand and said, "Steward Zhou is not taking care of it?" ”

"Brother Li is polite." Zhou Fei returned the salute with a smile and said, "Thanks to Brother Li's blessing, Zhou is no longer a steward now, and he eats in the dock fort." ”

Li Zheng laughed when he heard this, and said, "Congratulations!" ”

I think it was because of the 'Dragon Horse' incident that Zhou Fei was appreciated by the Fu family and was promoted and raised.

"Where, where." Zhou Fei smiled: "I don't know what is the important matter for Little Brother Li to come this time?" ”

As he spoke, he let the left and right traction carriages follow, and he led Li Zheng in front, walked into the dock fort, and said: "The matter of the dragon horse, let all the clan elders thank you very much, Brother Li has something to say, and Zhou immediately did it." ”

Where can this be taken seriously, Li Zheng smiled and said, "There is indeed something to ask for." ”

While speaking, he arrived at the fort, Li Zheng asked the Fu family slaves to park the carriage on the side of the road, took out a large box from it, and said: "Because the grassland needs manpower, I asked Zhang Shan to go to Lingzhou to buy some house slaves." But when there are many people, the consumption is also large. So I want to buy some grain from Fu's hands. ”

"Oh." Zhou Fei suddenly, nodded, and said, "This is the way." I don't know how much food Brother Li needs, if the amount is not large, he can make the decision. ”

Li Zheng gestured to the box he was holding in both hands and said, "Three hundred gold of grain!" ”

"Three hundred gold?!" Zhou Fei was taken aback and said, "That's 30,000 stones!" That's too much to be the master. After a pause, he said, "I also ask Brother Zhou to go to the side hall with a certain person to rest, and wait for a certain clan elder to negotiate." ”

"Okay."

Under the guidance of Zhou Fei, Li Zheng arrived at the side hall, put the box on the ground with a bang, and sat down on the couch.

Zhou Fei's eyes glanced at the box, and he still recognized that it was the box containing the gold cake during the transaction yesterday. Such a big box, with 300 gold, weighs more than 300 catties, but Li Zheng hugged it all the way and walked so far, but he didn't see much breathlessness, it seems that this little brother Li is not an idle person.

Glancing at Li Zheng again, Zhou Fei smiled, arched his hand, and left.

After a while, another waiter served tea and soup, and the etiquette was very thoughtful.

The more he came into contact with these families, the more amazed Li Zheng became. In the history of the original world, it is not without reason that these families can dominate the world for nearly a thousand years, and they also have some understanding from the details of these treatments.
