…

Looking at Jiang Ziliu's excited expression and resolute tone, Mu Hongmian was embarrassed: "Okay, that's done!" Kill him! The last sentence was said to Shi Ming. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Shi Ming stepped forward without hesitation with an iron spear, ready to kill!

"Alas, alas! Wait! Village Chief Mu, think about it yourself, can we afford to pay 1 million copper coins? Is it 1000 gold? It's impossible! Jiang Ziliu immediately coaxed, and said with a wry smile: "That, can you let this master retreat?"

Mu Hong waved his hand, and Shi Ming withdrew the iron spear against the bridge of his nose and took two steps back. Mu Hong said righteously:

"Do you know how many people I've died? 16 people! I need to pay their burial expenses, family pensions, land occupation fees...... Mental damage expenses, living expenses, loyalty expenses, daily flowers and fruits, etc., so many expenses, I didn't ask you for 1600 gold very cheap! ā€

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ We don't have anything to pay! Can you give a suitable price? Jiang Zi burst into tears, although he wanted to die, but he still lacked that courage. I had to say bitterly.

"Nope! You have! Villages, resources, and population can all be used as collateral! First of all, the village, according to his value of 1-10 gold, resources, what are the specific resources, timber, water is the second, gold mines, horses and other resources are the most expensive!

Of course, if you are willing to become my vassal and give up the population quota, I will also compensate you! To become a vassal, there must be no military, diplomatic and other acts, and you have to borrow 5,000 Chixiao points from me, for vassals, you don't have to pay interest! ā€

Mu Hong gushed about all kinds of mortgage methods, and then added: "I only need 2 vassals!"

"I would like to be your vassal!" A handsome young man stepped forward.

"I'm willing to ...... too"

"I want to ......"

As soon as Mu Hong's voice fell, the village chief, who was willing to become a vassal, shouted one after another in the captive crowd.

Jiang Ziliu also struggled and roared: "I am also willing!"

Mu Hong looked at it with an embarrassed face and said, "But there are only two places!" This village chief was the first one just now, and there was another ...... Uh-huh......"

Jiang Ziliu was anxious, and hurriedly said: "Village Chief Mu, it was this person who made a suggestion to me and asked He Rui to get the forging technology of the Tang Sword from Da Liangzao, and he also planned to ask for all kinds of craftsmen to bring down Chixiao Village from the root!"

"Really?" Mu Hong looked at the handsome young man in surprise, and then made a decision: "Cheng, just you and him, the rest of you will honestly pay the compensation, if you can't pay it, you will take the village and resources as collateral, if you don't want to, you will pay 10 years of life, I guess you should have a few more decades, choose for yourself!"

After being busy for most of the night, all matters were finally dealt with, and the map had been circled and drawn, marking all kinds of resources.

After this battle, all the territory within a radius of fifty miles was Mu Hong's territory, and only 6 villages remained from 50 li to 100 li, two of which were vassals of Mu Hong, and the remaining four handed over all the resources in the territory. Promised that the soldiers of Mu Hong's forces had the right of military access and the right to garrison.

and borrowed 1,000 Chixiao points from Mu Hong, with an interest rate of 20% per week. That is to say, if the first week is 200 Chixiao points, the total loan amount in the second week is 1200, then the interest is 240 Chixiao points. This is to force them to buy for the copper coins < Chixiao points, with a total of 4,000 Chixiao points, and the Chixiao points released by Mu Hong will be reduced by 4,000.

As for the remaining village chiefs, they took the village and resources to offset the account, and finally left the scene safely. Of course, in order to test their psychology, Mu Hong deliberately promised that those who were willing to stay in Chixiao Village could get 500 Chixiao points for each person.

This Chixiao point can rent a not very good shop in Chixiao Village, do some small business to survive, as long as they don't have resentment, want revenge or still have big ambitions, most of them will accept Mu Hong's invitation.

As a result, except for three of them, most of them were willing to live in Chixiao Village. The remaining three people were very hateful to Mu Hong, and they sneered and wanted to turn around and leave.

Mu Hong also sneered: "I was soft-hearted for a while, and I created today's He Rui, you don't hide your hatred for me, do you think I will really let you go?" Kill them! ā€

Whoa!

Zhang Qi waved his hand, and the horse thieves behind him took out arrows and shot at the three people!

Mu Hong looked at the hedgehog, showed an extremely unwilling look, swallowed his last breath, and laughed coldly. He immediately showed an amiable smile, turned to face the village chiefs who were willing to live in Chixiao Village, and said:

"I know that everyone has a grudge in their hearts, and there is no shortage of people who want to take revenge on me, so why bother? If you find death and lose 10 years of life, if there is any accident, can you still live? ā€

Everyone shook their heads, saying that they had no resentment, and that they were blind and so on. Mu Hong just listened to these words, so naturally he would not be stupid enough to really believe it, but he didn't plan to say more.

The war reparations paid by the 10 villages that withdrew from the war were as follows:

8,000 copper coins (8 gold), 98 energy points remaining on the village's books, and 23 bags of salt.

Forest resources with a total area of 198 hectares, 4 iron ore mines (the exact reserves of which cannot be surveyed), 6 coal mines, 2 copper mines, and the rest are cotton and dyes!

As for the river, there is only one river, there are two streams and a lake, and the aquatic products are abundant, lobsters, crabs and so on, of course, because the season is willing, many resources will not appear immediately. The rest of the resources were of little use to Mu Hong, at least at this stage.

"Let's go around your village!" Mu Hong suddenly thought of something, and showed a smile, he seemed to remember that Jiang Ziliu contacted He Rui and asked He Rui to send someone over.

Hey! A subtle smile appeared in Mu Hong's heart.

When he arrived at Frost Village, Jiang Ziliu hurriedly prepared some food for Mu Hong's soldiers to fill their stomachs, and then entertained those horse thief gangs, and the food bottomed out in an instant. And now the sky is already white.

At this time, a team came from outside the village, and the big bags and small bags stretched for a mile, Jiang Ziliu asked Mu Hong's opinion, and then went out to greet him.

"Chief Jiang! I am ordered by the Lord to deliver supplies and these craftsmen to you! ā€

Jiang Ziliu's face was a little stiff, his face was crying, and he squeezed out a smile and said to the middle-aged man: "Thank you!" Thank you Brother He for helping! ā€

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ No, the lord said that killing Mu Hong within a month is his greatest gratitude! Alright, you can take inventory! The middle-aged man didn't speak yin or yang, Xu saw that Jiang Ziliu didn't look good at him, and he didn't want to put a hot face on his cold ass.

Jiang Ziliu looked at the roster, which was written that there was one intermediate blacksmith and three junior blacksmiths; 2 intermediate physicians and 7 junior physicians; 1 intermediate tailor and 2 junior tailors; There are 2 junior grooms, 1 field horse, 10 horses, and a Legalist official who committed an accident and was brought out by He Rui to avoid trouble.

And the more Jiang Ziliu looked, the more sad his heart became, and the more miserable his face became.

"I mean, what's the matter with you? My father-in-law has sent you so many things, why do you seem to ask you to send these things? ā€

The middle-aged man on the side couldn't stand it, and couldn't help shouting, he was very unhappy in his heart, you don't appreciate Dade, it's just that, it seems that my father-in-law forced it to him, which made him very unhappy in his heart.

Jiang Ziliu almost cried, and said with a sad face: "It's really ...... It's really Brother He's kindness, and it's hard for me to repay it! Therefore, I feel that I am incompetent! ā€

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ Oh, that's it! The middle-aged man could understand in an instant, and suddenly said: "By the way, I almost forgot, the lord has not had much money recently, and he has invited so many people, so he can only give you 2 gold."

If you want to repay my lord's kindness, just get rid of Mu Hong this morning! The lord said, your plan is good, he thinks it has the value of implementation, originally there were only 2 gold! ā€

"Thank you......" Jiang Ziliu couldn't help but shed tears, tears of sadness, he felt like a cup!
