Thank you for the monthly pass and gift from your book friend!

The spread of Jiang Long's life experience, coupled with the arrival of the imperial palace report, and the faint hints from the capital suddenly made Wangsha County lively.

After another busy day, when the sun was about to set, Jiang Long returned to the county seat.

While eating, I listened to Cheng Ze and Xiao Fan report on what was going on in the county government today.

Why don't you not be here, but start training the fifty sergeants of the Inspection Division from today.

"Little young master, your life story is likely to spread in the near future, when the little marquis and the alien race formed a bitter enmity, when I heard the news, I am afraid that someone will come to find trouble......" Cheng Ze opened his mouth and said, Jing Xian pretended to surrender and then killed the alien army inside and outside the reinforcement army with a river of blood, ambushing hundreds of thousands of corpses!

This feud is too big!

It won't be over because Jing Hyun is dead.

And in this day and age, it is only natural for the father to repay the debt of the son.

There will definitely be people who want to kill Jiang Long to vent their hatred.

Cheng Ze and the others prepared early and trained the sergeants in advance, so as not to be caught off guard.

"Only fifty sergeants are too few, let's recruit some more people and strongmen together." Jiang Long thought about it for a while, and felt that what Cheng Ze and the others said was very reasonable, and he was afraid that there would be too many foreign troops, and fifty people would be too few to defend the city, so he proposed: "Put a notice on the city wall, as long as you participate in the training hard, you can get half of the salary of those errand servants in the county office!"

Take care of three meals a day.

And if you are killed in battle, in addition to the pension silver of the imperial court, the family can also receive compensation of ten acres of land. ”

"This ......" Cheng Ze frowned.

"Don't worry!" Jiang Long knew what Cheng Ze was worried about, "Tonight, I will have the silver coming in." ”

If you want to recruit people, too little is useless.

After all, the combat power of the people is not very good, and they must rely on the number to form combat effectiveness.

And if there is a lot of requisition, the cost must be a lot.

Cheng Ze knew that Jiang Long didn't have much silver on him.

Now that he heard that Jiang Long has a way to make money, Cheng Ze naturally will not oppose it anymore, in Lingtong County, which is close to the border, the more soldiers and horses he has, the more secure he will be.

"Also, let the sergeants guarding the city gate be ......more strict with the caravans," Jiang Long added.

"Yes!"

Cheng Ze and Xiao Fan responded.

The sun was going down, the sky was dark, Jiang Long was sitting at the table with an oil lamp, writing with a pen.

The content of the writing is that he and He Huan led the people to cut off the bandits.

It is completely written in accordance with the commentary, and the atmosphere is exaggerated to be tense, passionate, and fascinating, which makes people want to stop after reading it.

Jiang Long already planned to let Dingsheng Newspaper also publish it by serialization.

can't let He Huan help in vain, it can be regarded as a reward, but although He Huan will definitely be promoted after the story is published, the emperor will definitely not like the officials and generals promoted by Jiang Long by this means.

At that time, He Huan will definitely lose his sacred heart.

Including Guo Fang, Cheng Gang and Wei Huan before, it is the same.

Of course, losing the Sacred Heart is only good for Jiang Long.

If he can pull his own camp, then Jiang Long can be regarded as having his own small team.

A third of the way through the story, the black-clad guard came.

"See for yourself." Jiang Long's subordinates did not stop writing and continued to write, and tapped the place on the ground with his chin that was plastered with cement.

After the black-clothed guard entered the door, he knelt down silently, and when he heard the command, he walked over.

When he came closer, he crouched down, first touched it with his hands, and then tapped it with his fingers.

It's really hard.

And the surface is very smooth, even if the tiles are not burned, I think there will be many people who are willing to smear a layer of cement on the ground.

After laying cement, the home will be much cleaner immediately.

The real rich people will pave the ground with granite.

But the cost of this thing is just too high.

If you lay cement, it will be much cheaper, and if you have a little asset at home, you can buy it if you are just a small landlord.

The more things are available to the masses, the greater the profits in them!

Moreover, cement is the only thing, and no one else knows how to fire it.

In modern times, it means that there is a patent jishu to monopolize!

Jiang Long wrote a few more lines, put the pen on the inkstone, came closer, squatted down, and pointed to a small stone that he deliberately stained on the cement surface last time, "You pull it out with your hand and try it, and when the tile is fired, it will be as strong as this stone." ”

The black-clothed guard really tried it with his hands, his knuckles were thick, and his palms were covered with thick calluses.

Not only is the martial arts good, but also the strength is great.

But he couldn't break the stone.

A hint of excitement flashed in his eyes, and the black-clothed guard knelt down for Jiang Long again, "Please also ask the little master to tell the little one all the uses of cement." ”

"There's a pen there, I say, you write!" Jiang Long said lightly.

The black-clothed guard immediately got up and came to the table, spread out a piece of rice paper, and picked up the brush.

"Let's start with the larger projects, which can be to build the city walls, build the docks, build bridges and pave roads, and build riverbeds and embankments...... Besides, the small ones can wipe the ground of the courtyard and cover the courtyard wall...... "Jiang Long said carefully.

It took a long time before Jiang Long finished speaking.

The black-clothed guard stopped his pen, took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms, and respectfully handed them to Jiang Long.

"How much?" Jiang Long stretched out his hand to take it.

"Back to the little master, there are a total of 50,000 taels."

Jiang Long frowned slightly, feeling a little less, but then relieved again.

The black-clothed guard has not yet produced and has not received any income, so it is already good to be able to bring 50,000 taels.

These 50,000 taels can also be used to temporarily save the emergency.

"When there is an entry, I will bring another 100,000 taels!"

Jiang Long waved his hand in the direction of the desk, and the black-clothed guard dared to step forward, dry the pages of the writing haode paper, carefully fold the ink, and put it into the inner layer of the jacket.

And there is no objection to taking another 100,000 taels.

Apparently think it's worth it.

"But my background has already spread in the county?" Jiang Long asked suddenly.

"Not so fast." The black-clothed guard replied respectfully: "Although some people are deliberately spreading it, the land here is vast and sparsely populated, and it is also possible to run away on horseback for a while. And if you want to spread to other races, it is estimated that it will take five or six days.

When the stranger gets the letter, he has to send someone to verify it, and it takes another three to five days. ”

Jiang Long touched his chin.

In other words, it will be ten days before there may be an alien army coming to find trouble.

Ten days should be enough to train the people who have been recruited.

It's just defending the city, not going out of the city to confront the alien soldiers.

Prepare more wood, fire oil, stones, etc., foreign soldiers are particularly good at riding and shooting, but they are short for dismounting and attacking the city.

After letting the black-clothed guard retreat, Jiang Long continued to think.

In addition, it is necessary to buy more food reserves.

Otherwise, it will be surrounded by foreign soldiers, and the people will have nothing to eat, and the city will definitely be in chaos.

It's just that defense is not a way, Jiang Long thought about it, took the pen again, and wrote a letter.

It wasn't until late at night that the lights went out in the hut.

The next day, Jiang Long packed up and came to the front hall of the county government.

Continue to let Cheng Ze and others handle government affairs and train the people, and then, Jiang Long took out 10,000 taels of silver tickets and handed them to Xiao Fan, "Buy more grain and hoard it in the granary in the city, so as not to be surrounded by people, and if there is no food, it will disturb the people's hearts."

In addition, the recruitment of strong men, and the five hundred horse bandits to eat every day, is also a lot of expenses. ”

"Yes!" Xiao Fan responded and took the silver ticket.

Cheng Ze was a little curious, where did Jiang Long get the silver ticket?

Before, Jiang Long's body only had a total of a few thousand taels of silver.

"Mr. He, today you can take the sergeants to train outside the city, and by the way, watch the point, and let those horse bandits dig the moat." Originally, I wanted to train the horse bandits first, and then call them, but the alien army is likely to attack after ten days, so it is better to let the horse bandits dig the moat first, and there are fifty sergeants on the left and right watching, and these horse bandits do not dare to make trouble.

"Breakfast, lunch give them enough to eat, don't delay doing things" Jiang Long thought for a while, and then said: "Hungry at night." ”

"Yes." Why not respond.

It's still about letting the bolder ones jump out and clean it up.

While doing things, I trained at the same time.

In the past, there was no moat in Lingtong County, and Jiang Long instructed that he should dig a moat that was not too deep ten zhang away from the city wall, which would be of some use to the attack of foreign soldiers in the near future, and then dig deeper in the future.

The reason why it is so far away is because the current city wall of Lingtong County is too dilapidated, and there is no chance to rebuild it in the future.

After a few more conversations, Jiang Long continued to take Tudu and the others out of the city to map the nearby terrain.

But just out of the city gate, I met Delis, who I hadn't seen for a long time.

Delis sat in a carriage, raised the curtains, and smiled charmingly at Jiang Long.

After a short conversation, Jiang Long rode away.

Delis rode in a carriage and walked slowly in the direction of the county office.

came to the gate of the county ya, because Jiang Long had an explanation, so the carriage went in smoothly.

"Little master, this woman is not simple." Tudu rode on his horse and said to Jiang Long.

"yes, I know."

"The small means that there may be an alien army attacking after a while, and at this time, if Delis comes back as an internal ......" Tudu looked worried.

Jiang Long remembered the conversation with Delis.

To cooperate, there must be a certain amount of trust.

You can't be a pig and only drag your teammates.

"It's okay, just find someone to watch the dot in secret." Jiang Long said goodbye and hit the horse forward.

Tudu and the others glanced at each other and whipped up to catch up.

Hechi returned to the tribe with a wound.

The chief's father immediately sternly asked what had happened.

The chieftain of this small tribe didn't care much about this son, but the horse bandits were suppressed, and there was no way to buy salt and iron tools in the future, which made him quite annoyed and anxious.

You can't do it without salt.

Without iron, you can't make arrows and scimitars.

A nomadic tribe without weapons is like a tiger without its claws, and it is difficult for them to survive in the grassland where the strong respect the weak and the strong.

I don't know when it will be swallowed up by other powerful tribes.

Hechi was naturally prepared to deal with it.

How the horse bandits were suppressed, the reason, and what happened don't have to lie, only in zuihou, saying that he took advantage of the county officer's inattention and took the opportunity to escape.

The injuries on his body are said to have been beaten by the servants.

"Dead dead, caught, why did you escape alone?" Hechi's eldest brother sat in the corner of the tent and said in a strange way.

The chief was suspicious.

"Because of these eyes." Hechi slowly looked up.

He followed his mother everywhere else, but these eyes followed his father.

"They suspect that I am not from Daqi, so they want to torture something......

"Don't come back with your tail!" Second Brother Hechi snorted coldly.

The chief frowned, thought for a moment, and walked out of the tent with his sons, and then ordered again and again to send people to guard around the tribe.

Nomadic tribes don't stay in one place for long, so as long as there is no Great Qi army attacking in the past two days, there is nothing to do.

Hechi lay in the tent, and when he heard his father's order, a touch of loneliness flashed in his eyes.

But it was only a moment before he recovered.

Because since he was a child, this father has always disliked him and distrusted him.
