Chapter 17: Wood Ghosts
!???
"There are so many people in Red Leaf City, what are you staring at my private soldiers?" Shaolan shook her head and said bluntly.
It is precisely because Momiferitis will be his own leader in the future, so it is even more important to prevent it in advance and tell him not to covet his own things, so as not to make an inch in the future.
"Your private soldiers are well trained, give me a few, and you can train another batch."
"Born in my private soldiers, after all, it bears my brand, if you want to train a group of loyal generals who only obey your orders, you still have to train yourself.
And you don't have to start with these illiterate commoners, like me, you can absorb apprentices or practitioners from all walks of life.
Through them, you can learn about the rules and realities of various industries, which will help you govern your territory in the future. ”
Momibutyl was persuaded, "Okay, then recruit another person." ”
Momiji called his butler.
"I'm going to secretly recruit a group of people, and you're ready to settle them."
The butler looked embarrassed.
"What's wrong? Do you dare to listen to me? Red Leaf Inflammation felt deeply embarrassed in front of Shaolan.
The butler hurriedly knelt on the ground, "No, it's not, it's just ......." ”
Looking at the housekeeper's constipated face, Hongye Yan was even more unhappy.
"Something to say."
"Childe, now you only have a tax of 3,000 stone of grain a year, but the consumption of maintaining the mansion costs 1,000 stone a year, and the salary of a slave is more than 1,300 stone a year.
In addition, there is the movement between relatives, medicine and so on cost 300 stone a year, and ....... ”
"Okay, tell me directly, how much food do I have at my disposal?"
"No, not only is there no left, but there are still two or three hundred stones a year. I am afraid that the silver in the house will not be able to support it for a few years. ”
Red Leaf Inflammation was silent, and Shaolan also shut up.
Red Yexia suddenly said, "Brother, I have some fiefdoms. ”
"No need, as an elder brother, I have to rely on my sister to become a system."
Hongye Yan flatly refused and looked at Shaolan, "Mu Lan, do you have a way to help me solve this dilemma?" ”
"Here, if you don't have money, you can find a way to make money."
Red Yeyan grinned, and moved a few centimeters towards Shaolan, "I knew you had a way, tell me about it." ”
……
Shaolan was very confused, what could he do, the key was that Hongye Yan suddenly asked him like this, he was very confused.
"I'm not very familiar with Red Leaf City, you can ask other people to see if there are any good ways to make money."
Momiji sneered, "Those slaves know something, if they knew how to make money, they wouldn't be slaves." ”
Shaolan was speechless, what he said made sense. However, such an interruption made Shaolan think of a term - gambling, also known as gambling.
"If the son wants to make money quickly, he can open a Bo Opera Hall, but this reputation is not good."
"No, no, my reputation can't be damaged, I'll leave this matter to you, and I'll share your part of the remuneration after it's done."
Shaolan was speechless, what you think is beautiful.
"If this matter is left to me, I will bear the notoriety, I will maintain the place, I will pay the salary of the employees, and if I lose it, I will give you a share, as long as you maintain it at the necessary time, we will be seven and three, and I will be seven and you three."
Shaolan spoke in such detail, how could Hongye Yan not understand what he meant, thinking that what Shaolan said made sense, he immediately said, "Okay, then seven or three points." ”
Then after eating a roast whole lamb, Shaolan went back to her room.
It is not so easy to start building the Expo Theater, and you need to start gathering intelligence first.
Not long after Shaolan gave the order to gather intelligence, Hongye Xia came to visit.
"You don't have any available people under you, I see that you are pitiful, so I will send you a few people to help you."
Red leaves go straight to the point, looking down at Shaolan.
"Don't."
Every time she is looked down on by the little girl Hongye Xia, or sees her charity in her eyes, Shaolan is unhappy.
"I'll figure it out on my own."
"Hmph, stupid." Hongye Xia left as she spoke, walked to the door and stopped, turned around and asked, "Are you sure you don't." ”
"Don't."
"Humph!" Momiji Xia left straight away, "Don't forget it." ”
This little girl is so annoying, and the attitude of speaking is so unpleasant.
While letting his subordinates and spies collect information, Shaolan himself began to act.
After two days like this, support from Muyi arrived.
For Shaolan, a capable son, Mu Yi spared no effort to support, and the patriarch was also impressed by Shaolan and gave support.
So this time there were five dog grandfathers, three eyes, the patriarch's grandson Mu Shou, and ten young clansmen.
At the same time they brought three chests of a hundred taels of silver and fifty pieces of copper coins.
Note: One tael of silver = 1 guan, consistent = 1,000 wen, 1 copper coin 1 wen.
"Little boy, I finally saw you, and the head of the family asked me to serve you in the future." Grandpa Wugou looked at Shaolan respectfully.
"Brother Mu Lan, grandpa asked me to follow you in the future and listen to you."
"I heard that you have recruited a large number of private soldiers, and I asked the lord of the city to come and help you, no, it is to serve under your command. Please forgive me for my previous offense and accept me. ”
Three-Eyes said it very sincerely, and the other ten young people also paid their respects.
"Hahaha, okay, you're here just in time. Sit. ”
Everyone sat on the ground, looking at Shaolan respectfully and with adoring eyes.
Shaolan did what they longed for and couldn't even imagine.
So they came this time voluntarily, and they were eager to get what they wanted under Shaolan.
"I'll give you a choice now." Shaolan raised his two hands, "A battlefield, a river and lake, you choose the path you want to take." ”
"Battlefield, rivers and lakes?" Three-eyed was a little confused. Not only him, but everyone else was equally confused.
Shaolan explained, "The so-called battlefield, everyone knows that the general dies in a hundred battles, and the strong man returns in ten years, either the horse leather shroud, or the clothes return home. ”
"The so-called rivers and lakes, the disputes in the market, grievances and hatreds, and the dirt and dirt."
Seeing that everyone's eyes were wrong, Shaolan said, "If you enter the rivers and lakes, you can immediately get rich and wealthy, and you will have no worries about food and clothing, and in terms of living standards alone, it may not be worse than the general." ”
Shaolan's words moved everyone's hearts.
"I'm willing to choose the rivers and lakes." Three-eyed bow, he has been to the battlefield many times, and naturally knows the danger of the battlefield, so he takes another path.
As Three Eyes made their choice, nine young people also made their choices, and they all chose Jianghu.
For the last young man who sat firmly in place, Shao Lan had a trace of interest.
"I'm curious, what is the reason why you insist on taking the path of the battlefield?"
The young man said two words that surprised Shaolan, "Intuition." ”
"Interesting, what's your name?"
"The villain's name is Wood Ghost."
"Wood ghosts?" Someone called such a strange name.
"It is said that the villain died when he was a baby, and he came back from the dead the next day, so he is called a wood ghost."
Dead?
This is full of the protagonist's sense of déjà vu.
Shaolan stared at the wood ghost and smiled secretly.
