After receiving Morga's allegiance and support, Li Ran urgently convened a meeting that night, and announced several decisions to everyone in the village, while converting the existing village into a military stronghold, the village center would also be relocated to the foot of the Mochester Mountains, where a new village would be established. At the same time, all the hunters were ordered to set out, search all the surrounding forces that could threaten the village, and keep an eye on their movements at any time, just in case of emergency.

For these decisions of the new leader Li Ran, some people in the village once again expressed their incomprehension, but fortunately, the old village chief Morga once again stood on Li Ran's side and explained the benefits of this move to the villagers, and out of trust in the old village chief, the villagers slowly dispersed.

waited until the villagers finished leaving, Li Ran and the others returned to the village hall, and Morga looked at Li Ran with some worry and asked: "I understand that a small village like you will definitely not be satisfied, but have you thought about it?" The dangers of such blind expansion are too great, and it now seems that the materials we have prepared for construction are far from sufficient! ”

Li Ran nodded, expressed his understanding of the old village chief Mogar's worries with his actions, and at the same time turned to look at the bookkeeper Dorik, and said to him: "Thank you for the reminder, and this reminder is very timely, but you don't need to worry about the construction of the village materials for the time being, when Master Doric completes my appointment, I will go out through the lord teleportation function given by the heart of the village and town, and I will try to bring as many materials as possible when I come back!" ”

Morga sighed and said, "The teleportation function of the Heart of the Village can only be used once a week, so you won't be able to return until a week at the earliest. So what should we do during this time? ”

Li Ran pondered for a while, and suddenly asked Dorik, "Master, according to your speculation, when will I be able to get my appointment?" ”

Seeing Li Ran asked. Doric immediately replied: "I have passed the appointment yesterday, if you are in a hurry, I can try to urge the friends in the city, if nothing else, it should be obtained in ten days!" ”

Li Ran looked at him and said, "Then please try to help me urge, and you will go with me to choose the address of the village early tomorrow morning, I need your advice very much in this regard!" Saying that, Li Ran looked at several people around him, including the old village chief Morga, Master Dorik, and the old people of several surrounding villages!

"Am I going too?" Doric asked, somewhat surprised. Although he was nominally a clerk sent by the Empire, in the eyes of the rest of the village, he was nothing more than a tax collector who demanded taxes, and the villagers had always disliked him, except for some communication with the old village chief Morga on weekdays. And knowing his identity, he also has the attitude of living one day at a time, and never takes the initiative to ask about other things in the village.

But what he didn't expect was that this new leader would call him for such a big thing as choosing the location of the new village, which made him feel a little flattered, and he threw a grateful look at Li Ran at the same time. The body that has always been subdued also stands a little erect.

Next, Li Ran chatted with Morga and others for a while, and roughly explained his ideas and architectural distribution of the new village, and also listened carefully to the opinions and ideas of Morga and others, and made some improvements to the village. Here I have to say that Doric is not a loss of people who came from the main city, and he has put forward a lot of opinions about the village pattern drawn by Li Ran on paper. Except for a few that were not practical and were rejected by Li Ran, most of them were accepted by Li Ran and used in the new pattern. This is undoubtedly an affirmation for Doric.

Early the next morning, after arranging the reconstruction of the current village into a stronghold, Li Ran took Morga, Doric and others to the Leices Mountains, and it took another day to establish the location of the village.

Early in the morning of the third day, Li Ran set out with all the people in the village, and spent a day building a simple village hall at a pre-established location under the Leices Mountains.

Early in the morning of the fourth day, Li Ran, under the protection of everyone, carefully moved a basketball-sized village heart from the original village to this simple village hall, and ordered everyone to set up two simple sentry posts on his left and right on the same day, and spent a dangerous night.

In the next two or three days, Li Ran had everyone set out together to establish the first line of defense against the Leices Mountains behind him, and at the same time ordered the remaining dozen hunters to patrol around the village day and night, alert for all possible dangers.

At dusk on the ninth day, Li Ran, who was leading the villagers to carry logs, suddenly heard someone shouting loudly from behind, and when he turned around, he found Doric running here, holding a sheepskin scroll in his hand.

"Your Excellency, your appointment has arrived!" Doric shouted loudly when he was far away

Li Ran couldn't help but smile slightly, looking at Dorik, who was getting closer and closer to Dorik, whose face was covered with sweat, until he came to his side, he patted him on the shoulder vigorously, and then took the sheepskin scroll he sent.

At the moment when the scroll was opened, Li Ran heard a prompt sound from the system, and he officially became a citizen of the Khan Rock Empire, owned a piece of land of his own, became a lord, and was given the authority to establish a fifty-man escort group.

Staring at the sheepskin scroll in his hand, Li Ran took a long breath again, so many days of hard work were finally not in vain, if the calculation was not bad, today should be Chinese New Year's Eve, he had not slept for more than two days.

However, at this time, Li Ran did not have a trace of sleep, with this appointment, his lordship was truly established, if his lordship was only announced by the old village chief Morga and his personal reputation, it was equivalent to a verbal agreement. And now with this parchment scroll, he Li Ran is a veritable lord of this village, and has the right to decide everything, not to mention that his current military strength limit has reached fifty.

"Thank you, Master Doric!" Carefully placing the appointing scroll in the deepest part of the storage space, Li Ran said with a smile at Doric.

"Your Excellency, you are so polite, this is what I can rarely do as a bookkeeper!" Doric bowed slightly, and said softly and modestly

Li Ran laughed and said: "Master Doric is too polite, you and I are similar in status, both are outsiders who joined this place later, but life is impermanent, since we are here at the moment, it is a family, if the master is willing, I will invite you to join my village after you retire, as long as you don't dislike it!" ”

Doric took a deep look at Li Ran, the person in front of him had an obscure identity, unfathomable skills, and unconcealable ambition and ruthless methods. At the same time, he is also very observant and good at using people. These are the basic conditions that a lord should have. So he hurriedly smiled and said, "Thank you for the trust of the lord, and I, as a bookkeeper who has been here for many years, naturally want to do more for the village!" As for staying in the village, it depends on whether this old bone can be moved after I retire, haha! ”

Li Ran looked at him, for a person like Doric, returning to the empire is at most an idle job, if he develops well, he may stay, and if he develops badly, he will at least make himself safer when he returns to the empire. So in the end, Dorik's stay is actually his own problem.

Thinking of this, Li Ran didn't say anything more, and ordered the messenger to call Morga and several other village elders to the new but somewhat simple village hall. Recall their own permissions and share some of them with these people, so that they can better lead the villagers to protect the village during this time.

Then Li Ran announced that he was going out for a few days, so he handed over all the materials on his body to Morga, and ordered him to supervise the construction of the whole village, this arrangement showed that it was very suitable for Morga, looking at the large number of building materials in the storage backpack, the former old village chief nodded excitedly, and promised to complete the task.

Just when everyone was about to end the meeting, Li Ran summoned all the troops he had prepared in advance in front of everyone. In addition to the two Maruk warriors Dagenai and Tristan, the lamp god Topol, and a few other iron men that he had been bringing with him, he summoned twenty seventh-order iron men and some mages and lamp gods.
