Out of the north gate hurried, not long to see a large procession, there were women, children, old and young, the team was moving very slowly, but it was a long team. Before Zhang Bai rode alone to the big team, sure enough, it was Wang Yue and Zhang Chao who were leading the team, and Zhang Miao, Liu Yi, Wei Zi, Wei Kai, several thousand commanders and their respective families were there.

"MD, the people are so together, the speed is so fast, this is a long time ago ready to run away~" Zhang Bai slandered in his heart.

'My lord! Wang Yue hurriedly came up to salute and looked left and right.

Zhang Bai understood, this is looking for Tong Yuan: 'Tong Yuan is entangled by the Yellow Turban General Zhang Yan, you quickly follow me back to help.' ’

Teng Teng Teng~

At this moment, Tong Yuan caught up from behind. It turned out that after Zhang Bai retreated, Tong Yuan didn't love to fight, and escaped with a false move.

'Tong Yuan is safe. Zhang Bai greeted him.

"Lord, the last general is incompetent..."Tong Yuan looked very angry, the dignified spear god was so depressed that even a junior like Zhang Yan couldn't take it, "Lord, do you see if you can let Nuwa Shangxian unlock the seal on my body?" ’

'This~ go back and try it, I can't beat her. Zhang Bai pouted, why didn't he want to.

A group of people then marched towards the white country, this trip Zhang Bai can be regarded as a profit, not to mention the population, soldiers and special talents alone can get a lot. It's just that I don't know if the Yellow Turban will leave after plundering or if he plans to seize the city, if he leaves, Zhang Miao and they will probably have to return to Chenliu at that time.

'No matter what, people can go, but soldiers and special talents can't, and if you enter the White Country, you will be my residents!' Zhang Bai thought viciously.

Back in the white country, it was naturally a busy time. Zhang Miao and Zhang Chao's family Zhang Bai arranged a mansion to live in, although it is not as good as his palace, it is a little less slaughtering, but it is a different flavor, a little more luxury of a rich man.

It's a pity that whether it is Zhang Miao, Zhang Chao or Liu Yi, Weizi and they have no intention of continuing, so Zhang Bai will let them live first and wait for Chen Liu's results to come back. Fortunately, Zhang Miao returned the favor and gave Li a few drawings, including two military camp design drawings, so that the home could be upgraded to a large village.

In the next two days, Zhang Bai sent Wang Yue and Tong Yuan out to investigate the news, while he stayed in his homeland as an infrastructure planning territory.

'What is this food consumption?' Zhang Bai asked, pointing to the food item in the expense.

'Lord, the average first-order soldier needs to consume 3 pieces of food per day, a daily salary of 1 copper coin, and every 5 soldiers need to be allocated a piece of farmland. Because most of the soldiers are now single and have no wives and children, and most of the families with wives and children have no agricultural resources to farm, so the system of assisted farming is adopted, and the ministers send farmers to help them cultivate, and the grain obtained is distributed by the two sides through negotiation. This consumption is already implemented according to the minimum standard. Seeing that Zhang Bai seemed to be a little dissatisfied, Xin Nong said aggrievedly. He is actually right, this standard is already the minimum requirement for ordinary soldiers, and it was set by Zhang Bai himself, compared to other countries, this standard is very generous, and after all, Bai Guo is now newly built, how to attract talents without preferential treatment for small families and small businesses.

'Rice bucket~' Zhang Bai scolded in his heart, nodded quietly on the surface, and carefully looked at the various data of his territory, and when he noticed the prestige, Zhang Bai was startled, and he actually reached fame, and he was quite complacent, "In this way, when the barracks are built, and then the people's hearts can be upgraded." ’

This time, Zhang Bai is not ready to use gold coins to directly smash the hearts of the people, it is not cost-effective. The people's hearts that are boosted by gold coins are a bit like castles in the air, and they will easily fall back down. The nearly five million gold coins brought by Du Shang have now used up about 1,500 gold coins, which seems to be a drop in the bucket compared to five million, but how many days has it been? Moreover, all aspects of the home are still developing rapidly, and the cost will only get bigger and bigger, and if we don't solve the problem of money input quickly, it is conservatively estimated that five million will be spent for a year. According to Dushang's words, the market has not yet been active, and if you want to develop business quickly, you need to build roads not only in the territory but also outside the city. In addition, of course, the more direct thing is to let the business families directly settle in, all kinds of shops are opened, all kinds of caravans are running, and the economy is active. Now, although there are taxes every day, taxes have always been the minimum standard, and they have always been beyond their means, and they are not worth mentioning compared to expenses. Zhang Bai thought about it seriously, shouldn't he think about the matter of beating Liu Xie's coin mines? There are other minerals, even within the scope of their own territory, they can't always be occupied by Liu Xie and his group. The construction of the territory, the salary, the salary, the salary, the reward, the cost of the soldier's equipment, etc., are all money. In addition, there is also a big expense, that is, the guards of the territory are also considered to be training, Zhang Da and Li Ji need to lead the soldiers to patrol around the territory every day, clear and expel the wild monsters, fortunately, the powerful ones were called by Zhang Yan to attack Chen Liu, but the stragglers left behind are not easy to deal with, the equipment damaged every day needs to be repaired or replaced, the elixir used by the soldiers, and the medical treatment after being injured, which is fortunately not killed in battle, otherwise a pension is needed.

And that's just to deal with a few mobs, and if there are bandits, the cost will be even greater. Zhang Bai understood in his heart, he understood the truth of sitting and eating empty mountains, "I have to find a time to have a showdown with Liu Xie, and now I also have thousands of soldiers, plus Tong Yuan and Wang Yue, two generals, and I also have the qualifications to speak." He had already taken the hundreds of elite soldiers who had fled from Chen Liu's bag as his own.

Liu Xie is Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, so Zhang Bai thinks he is also ~ um.. White Emperor?

The next day.

3,000 people, 10,000 gold coins needed to upgrade, one E-level general, two F-level generals, a barracks, 100,000 prosperity, fame and full popularity have finally met the requirements, and the home has officially been upgraded to a large village!

At this time, Wang Yue and Tong Yuan had also returned with the latest news from Chen Liu. Soon after Zhang Miao and others were defeated, Yuan Shao of Yizhou sent the general Ji Ling to lead 130,000 troops, known as 500,000 troops to kill Chen Liu.

But it is precisely because it does not cost a soldier that Chen Liu's current situation is even more chaotic, the yellow turban and a large number of bandits scattered into the surrounding mountains to occupy the mountain as the king, and many cottages have bosses as the town's fierce beasts, which is very difficult! But it's hard for many players, hide outside the city to kill monsters and level up, they are often robbed, and they will be killed when they are unlucky. Stay in Chen Liu, and was forced to join the army by Ji Ling's recruitment list, and the ending was to go out to deal with the bandits and robbers~ And it was a head-on resistance, and the ending can be imagined. As a last resort, the players still fled one after another, and under the desperate clearing of so many players, whether it was Lu Ming's mainland gods or Zhang Bai's homeland, they had already been discovered and quickly spread among the players. In the past two days, players have been coming to visit. With the influx of a large number of players, the security of the homeland has visibly dropped by more than 30 points in just a few days. However, the activity of the market and the tax on transactions have risen significantly. Of course, Zhang Bai didn't look down on this money, he knew that the player's situation during this time was nowhere to go, otherwise he would have started to drive people out a long time ago.

In order to deal with the latest situation in Chen Liu, Zhang Bai summoned all the generals to discuss in the mansion.

'Lord, is there a wall to be built in the house now?' 'Du Shang, as Taichang, was in charge of the affairs of territorial construction, and he was the first to ask, "The territory of the White Kingdom has expanded again, and it may be difficult to defend it with the two generals Li Ji and Zhang Da plus four hundred soldiers." ’

Zhang Bai looked at Li Ji and Zhang Da, the two nodded, the scope that needed to be defended was too wide, and the number of people had suddenly increased in the past two days, and the two and the soldiers under their command were a little unable to adapt.

In the New Era, there is no limit to the size of the territory, and even if it is a refugee shelter, you can build tens of thousands of dwellings, as long as you want.

It's a choice. Building a wall will naturally make it better defensive, but once it is upgraded to a small city, the wall will have to be torn down. If you don't build it, it will save time and effort, but it may cause losses. Zhang Bai couldn't help but groan, with the current state of his homeland, as long as the population meets the requirements, he can be upgraded to a small city immediately: "Let's not build it first, we now have a barracks, and then we will find a way to collect the hundreds of soldiers left by Chen for our own use." ’

'Does the lord have a plan?' Du Shang was excited, with hundreds of elite soldiers joining, the strength of the homeland could almost double.

'Lord, after Ji Ling occupied Chen Liucheng, he recruited troops and posted a recruitment list to recruit heroes from all over the world to fight the yellow scarf, once these soldiers were released, they would be recruited by Ji Ling. ’

Zhang Bai nodded: "These soldiers are basically the family soldiers of the major rich men in Chen Liuzhong, and now that Chen Liucheng is occupied by Yuan Shao, naturally they can't be allowed to go back, not only these family soldiers, but even the major families have to find a way to recruit them." With them on board, the homeland's economy will be a leap forward. For the time being, the news of Yuan Shao's capture of Chenliu should not be spread outside. ’

The family that Zhang Bai cares about is rich, powerful and famous. Yuan Shao is a big family, even if a businessman has money, he can't get into his eyes, and the only people he cares about are famous people of the Shi clan or thousands of enemies like Dian Wei. Du Shang could have been counted as one, but now here in Zhang Bai, Cai Hu, Bian Rang went to seclusion with Liu Xie, Kong Ling took refuge in Sun Jian, Dian Wei voted for Cao Cao, Ruan Ji and other seven sages of the bamboo forest did not know where to run and went to seclusion... This line of Ji Ling was ordered by Yuan Shao to visit the celebrities in Chen Liucheng one by one, but unfortunately none of them were seen, and even Zhang Miao disappeared.

No one doubts that this patchwork of hundreds of soldiers is inevitable: 'But if you take it for yourself, will those families agree?' It won't make trouble if they come to the homeland again, right? ’

That's the crux of the matter! Ordinary residents flickered around and gave a little favor to the people, and the family was not so simple, and it took a lot of effort to collect it.

At this time, Du Shang said: "Lord, this matter depends on the result of Chen Liucheng. Taiping Dao has long been a teacher of justice since the Heavenly Master concentrated on seeking the Tao. Once the yellow turban is entrenched in Chenliu, the family inside it will inevitably flee, and when the time comes, my white country only needs to open the door of convenience, and it will come to vote one after another. Even if Ji Ling's army holds, but the yellow turban will not be extinguished, Chen Liu will always be under the threat of war, these business families will be the most affected, relatively speaking, my white country is also more advantageous. ’

'Can Duke Du have the confidence to persuade the families of the world to move to my white country?' Zhang Bai hurriedly asked.

'What the family asks for is nothing more than wealth and power. As long as the lord vigorously develops commerce and businessmen love money, they will definitely be willing to set up branches even if they don't move directly. And the lord has the assets of the overlord, and he is determined to be in the world, and those who have talent can also show their ambitions in our white country, and it is not impossible to worship the general. In the past, each family recruited private soldiers only because Chen had few soldiers, and it was a last resort for self-protection, as long as the lord could provide shelter, and then send a person who could speak the Tao to explain the powerful relationship, it should not be difficult to recruit. ’

After listening to Du Shang's analysis, Zhang Bai suddenly slapped his thigh, if he wants to say that he can speak well, he has to talk about Tang Zhou, that is a man with bewitching skills! Immediately recruited a personal soldier: "You go to Xianpintai and invite Tang Zhou over." ’

'Wow! The soldier said yes and turned to leave.

After a while, Tang Zhou arrived. Du Shang talked with him for a while: "If these families leave Chenliu, if they don't escape from Yanzhou directly, then my Bai Guo should be the first choice!" Tang Zhou will definitely be able to succeed in this trip, and congratulations to Tang Zhou in advance for another great achievement. ’

Tang Zhou didn't have a word, and set off immediately after going back and making preparations.

'The lord now has Wang Yue, Tong Yuan, Li Ji, Zhang Da four generals, thousands of soldiers, Bai Guo also has the capital of self-preservation, the foundation has been cast, but there is still a lack of internal affairs and civil officials to manage the territory, strong and weak is not a long-term way. He glanced at Xin Nong, and then said, "My lord might as well visit Xin Nong's teacher, Chen Gong." The Chen family, Mr. Chen Yu, Chen Chen, Chen Ji, Chen Qun, etc. are all great talents in the world, and if they can be recruited, they will be able to become His Majesty's humerus. Moreover, Chen Qun's father-in-law, Xun Yu and Xun Wenruo, are even more talented as Wang Zuo! If you can get the help of this person, it is better than thousands of troops. ’

Zhang Bai jumped up directly: "Who are you talking about?" Xun Yu?! 'The people mentioned before, I have heard a little about Chen Qun and Zhang Bai, he doesn't know Chen Yu Chen Ji or anything, but this Xun Yu has a great name in history, and he is the chief strategist and hero of Cao Cao's unification of the north, 'Xun Yu is also in Liu Xie's? ’

Seeing Zhang Bai's big reaction, Du Shang was quite happy, this is exactly the manifestation of thirst for talent and love as life: 'Exactly! Yesterday, I visited Xin Nong and I, as well as Lu Zhi, Chen Qiu, Zheng Xuan, Ma Rong, Cai Hu, Mao Ji and other great Confucians, Huang Pu Song, Wang Yun, Shi Sun Rui, Wang Biao, Zhao Wen, Zhao Qian and other important ministers of the Han Dynasty...'

Du Shang was still talking, but Zhang Bai couldn't remember: "I'm a big C!" Liu Xie's hiding so many people! it, no! You have to dig it up! ’

Immediately interrupted: 'Xinnon quickly leads the way, I will visit in person!' ’

'Uh~ obliged. ’
