Chapter 13: The Centurion
Ling Yun returned to the auction house to replenish the arrows, this time he directly bought a thousand lowest-grade iron arrows, which could be used several times, if it wasn't for the lack of money on his body, he was ready to buy a few thousand more, after all, it was not easy to come to the town once.

The wolf king still has more than four hours to refresh, what are you going to do now? Ling Yun looked up in the center of the town, and his eyes swept to the town government office, well, why don't you go there and have a look.
Ling Yun walked to the door and said to the doorman, "Hello, I want to see the mayor." The doorman looked indifferent: "What do you see the mayor, the mayor is busy with official business, but it's not something that anyone can see if they want to!" ā
"I want to buy a piece of land!"
Hearing that Ling Yun was coming to buy land, the doorman's face softened a little, after all, it was related to the economic development of the town, and the doorman smiled: "You wait a while, I'll go in and report!" After saying that, he turned around and walked in, and after a while, the doorman trotted out with a smile on his face: "Hello, the mayor asked me to take you in." ā
Ling Yun was stunned for a while, this attitude has changed too much, and even the honorific title is used, a virtual character, it is necessary to be so sophisticated. Follow the doorman in, the town government is still quite big, the mayor is in the main hall, after arriving in a twist and turn, he found that the mayor is standing at a long table looking at the map, the mayor is a thirty-level knight, burly, and his broad face exudes a killing atmosphere, but there is a trace of sorrow between his eyebrows.
After Ling Yun arrived, "See the town chief!" Qingfeng Country is still under feudal rule, and civilians need to salute when they see the court officials, but they don't have to kneel. The mayor raised his head: "No need to be polite, I heard that you want to buy land?" ā
"Yes."
The mayor turned around and took out a topographic map of the town, which marked the large and small plots of land that could be sold, the town was naturally the most expensive, the next village was very cheap, and the town was the most expensive around the town government, after all, the traffic here was the largest, whether you were doing business or living, it was very good.
The mayor pointed to the map while introducing the price of each piece of land and the surrounding situation to Ling Yun, Ling Yun looked at it, a little shy, the most expensive land here costs ten gold coins a piece, and the cheapest one in the village is only a few silver coins, but what is the use.
Ling Yun knows that this is the case that the exchange of Huaxia coins and game coins has not yet been opened, if this game becomes popular, the price of these lands will at least increase by more than ten times, or even hundreds of times, and according to Ling Yun's feelings in the past few days, this game will definitely be popular.
Ling Yun touched his nose and said embarrassedly: "Mayor Town, I'm very sorry, I didn't bring enough money today, can I wait a few days for me to raise a little money and buy it again", the mayor agreed very happily, after all, no matter what Ling Yun used it for, it would increase the economic benefits of the town, of course he didn't mind waiting a few more days.
Ling Yun pointed to a few pieces of land and asked the mayor to help keep them, and the mayor readily agreed. After talking about the sale of land, Ling Yun should have left, but before leaving, he couldn't help but ask, "Mayor, I saw that you seemed to have sorrow between your eyebrows before I came in just now, I don't know if there is anything that worries your lordship?" ā
The mayor hesitated for a while, thinking that everyone would know about it anyway, so he told him: "You know, our town is on the border of the three countries, and from time to time it will be harassed by the other two countries, in fact, it is usually to destroy some villages, but some time ago, I went to the county to report the situation of last month, etc., and the county commander reminded me that the demon kingdom is preparing to attack Qingfeng country in a big way, so let me be prepared, maybe it will start attacking from my side." The county order made me more vigilant, but he sent me more troops, if the demon army pressed the border, our town would be destroyed, and my own troops plus an army on the border would not be able to support the arrival of reinforcements, I really don't know what the court thinks! ā
Ling Yun's heart moved, and he hurriedly said: "You can share the worries of adults below!" The mayor glanced at him and shook his head: "I understand your loyalty, this is not something you can participate in." Ling Yun knew that the mayor was saying that his rank was low, not that he looked down on him, the main thing was that the fourth-level was useless on the battlefield, or sent to death.
Ling Yun explained; "Adults forgot, we have a lot of players, if we can gather a few hundred people to .....", Ling Yun didn't finish speaking, the mayor's eyes lit up, yes, one person is nothing, hundreds of thousands of people are a lot of force.
Seeing that the mayor understood, Ling Yun hurriedly asked for his life: "I am not talented, I am willing to share my worries for adults!" The mayor laughed, and the sorrow on his face was swept away: "Okay, this matter will be handled by you!" Lingyun agreed: "Yes!" Please also ask the adults to give the next paperwork, so that it is convenient to recruit troops in the next place! ā
The mayor immediately wrote down a document of appointment, stamped his seal, and handed it to Ling Yun. Ling Yun took it and couldn't help but be overjoyed, the above appointed Ling Yun as a centurion, who could lead the army he recruited and be directly under the command of the town mayor. Ling Yun immediately hugged his fists and said: "The last general will give orders, and he will do his best." ā
The mayor was very satisfied with his loyalty, beckoned his entourage, and said to his entourage: "Take the Yunlin centurion to the treasury to receive two hundred gold coins, and say that it is my order, remember not to pass it on." "Wow, it's two hundred gold coins, although it's not your own money, but it's also in your own hands, and I'm very excited when I think about it."
The mayor of the town explained to Ling Yun: "After you go out, immediately start handling this matter, and give me an answer in ten days!" "Yes! Ling Yun replied in a very elegant manner, and then went to the treasury with his entourage to collect the gold coins.
Walking on the road, Ling Yun was happy in his heart, he had been thinking about how to break into government agencies, he originally planned to join the army, starting as a small soldier, but he didn't expect to become a centurion directly. The military positions of Qingfeng Country, from top to bottom, are, marshal, general, general, marquis, commander, captain, garrison, thousand-commander, centurion, Shifu chief, army commander, and small soldier. Unexpectedly, this time I jumped two levels and went directly to the centurion.
Ling Yun sighed, this trip to the mayor's mansion is not wrong, not only has a position, but also holds a military position of soldiers and horses, now he is a person in the system, in the future, not only can he enjoy the treatment of Yulu, but also can be protected by the imperial court, and there should not be many civilian players who dare to provoke themselves.
After receiving the money, he walked out of the mayor's mansion, and saw the mayor's personal entourage personally sending Ling Yun out, and the doorman at the door became more and more respectful, for fear that the disrespect just now would cause Ling Yun's dissatisfaction. Ling Yun was secretly funny, but he didn't bother with him, it didn't make any sense, did it?
Looking up at the cloudless blue sky, and turning to look at the huge mayor's mansion behind him, Ling Yun thought: When will he be the master here. It's still far away, but it's not impossible, who would have thought that just half an hour ago, he was still a civilian player like these people on the street?
In fact, Ling Yun really just wanted to buy a piece of land or understand the situation, but he didn't expect that he would become an official by an unintentional move, but fortunately, he studied the background story more thoroughly, if he was an ordinary person, he would definitely not dare to say such a thing.
But then again, Ling Yun has no experience in leading an army, and he is still a veritable elementary school student! Thinking of this, he also smiled a little bitterly, maybe he would lead his army to the battlefield after a while, I don't know how his subordinates would feel if they knew that their superior was a ten-year-old elementary school student.
Haha, Ling Yun smiled, or go back to make up for the book on army management and tactical training, otherwise it will be a joke at that time, although whether it is victory or defeat Ling Yun will be rewarded for defending the country, but Ling Yun still wants to study hard and lead his army to gallop on the battlefield, what a fun thing it is, not to mention, he still has his own selfishness.
