Listening to this expected rhetoric, Chonglou smiled, when he was rampant in the desert, he still thought that this sand scorpion Zhang Shan was a character, but after following Shizun, he experienced so many things, and then looked back at him, but he felt that it was nothing more than that, not to mention short-sightedness, and only vain fame, and his achievements could only end here.

However, no matter what happens to this mountain in the future, the errand assigned by the master must be completed as soon as possible, thinking of this, Chonglou opened his mouth and said: "Commander Zhang, we don't talk darkly, we all know how many of your tens of thousands of cavalry in the sand scorpion are just ordinary people who can ride horses." And I'm afraid that Brother Jin has also told you about the new policy of the imperial court, once this new policy is implemented, how many of your tens of thousands of cavalry do you think will be left? ”

This sentence choked Zhang Shan enough, damn, you An Chonglou has great ability, you are on the high branch of the imperial court, and you are also familiar with the situation in the desert, but you can't treat me Zhang Shan as a person, so I have the final say in the desert now.

Thinking of this, he lowered his face and said: "Lord An, there must be a bargain for this business, you can't say anything, it's true, as soon as the new policy of the imperial court comes out, more than half of the people in the desert will come to build roads for the imperial court, and when the time comes, if I can have a thousand eight hundred people under my command, it will be dead, and the army of your imperial court is also powerful, and our sand thieves who fly in the sky and run underground are definitely not the enemy, but it doesn't mean that we can't do it, right?" ”

"No matter how powerful the army of your court is, it is impossible to be stationed in this desert all year round to keep an eye on it, right, and I can still do it if I casually send someone disguised as one of the road builders to make trouble for you, don't force me to be anxious."

Lustful and introverted, it's about people like Zhang Shan, Chonglou is now more and more disdainful of him, you talk about your sand thief leader with 10,000 cavalry, not to mention that you have led people to do a real battle with the imperial court, even if you lose, everyone respects you as a man, but now you are threatening people with incitement to make trouble, isn't this as disgusting as a big man who can run a horse on his arm, when he quarrels with someone, he threatens people to throw feces at people's windows.

Jin Sanpang couldn't listen to these words anymore, and turned his head with a blushing face.

To say that Zhang Shan is not this sloppy character on weekdays, otherwise it would not be possible to become the leader who controls the entire Kowloon Desert, but the problem is that he is really out of line now, this decree of the imperial court is a plan to draw wages from the bottom of the kettle, and the people have all gone to build roads, what do they sand thieves eat, where do they live, and where do they hide if something happens? He is not blind, what kind of posture would the three-legged golden crow just now be when he came to the desert, there was no way to hide in this empty desert, they really wanted to kill the sand thieves, I'm afraid it wouldn't take half a month, what can you do with Zhang Shan.

"That's it, Commander Zhang, we are also old acquaintances, I will also tell you the bottom, the position of captain is impossible to raise at the beginning, but if the task of building the road is completed quickly enough, the quality is good enough, it is not impossible to move up, after all, the captain given to you is not a false position, and in the past few years, the court is probably mainly to build roads, if you perform well enough, it is possible to rise further, not to mention, this road captain is a beautiful difference, how many people can't look forward to it."

"Beauty? Why did Lord An say this, I would like to hear it in detail. Zhang Shan was a little unconvinced.

"Hehe, Commander Zhang, listen to it. This decree makes it clear that this road is a trade road, and it will naturally be based on caravans in the future, since there are caravans, there are naturally not a few people who eat horses and chew horses, and originally Commander Zhang is here just occasionally to collect a toll to make a lot of money, if the road is opened and then set up a checkpoint here to collect tolls, what will it be like when the time comes, Commander Zhang may wish to think about it. ”

Now Zhang Shan's breathing is short, now there are not many caravans passing in the desert, and most of them have something to do with the sand scorpions, but just the tolls given by these caravans every time can feed such a large group of people as the sand scorpions, if it is really like what Chonglou said, but let himself collect tolls legally here, the caravan does not need more, and more than fifty percent of them will die, after all, there is no need to share this wealth with so many subordinates.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly raised his head and asked, "Lord An, can I, the captain, stay here after repairing the road?" ”

"Of course, Commander Zhang is a local, he is most familiar with the customs here, the trade road in this desert needs to be maintained every year after it is repaired, Commander Zhang is familiar with the terrain, and participated in the road repair, it is the best person to be responsible for this matter, this checkpoint collects tolls, but also to maintain the smooth flow of the trade route, listen to the master said, at least you have to leave a thirty percent."

Sancheng, Zhang Shan's eyes were full of golden light, he had always been proficient in calculations, and he was stunned by the huge number when he made a rough calculation, such a large fortune, even if he had to build roads and pay his subordinates, but what he left was several times as much as it is now, if there were more caravans, the number would be unimaginable.

"Is it really 30 percent?"

"Hehe, Commander Zhang rest assured, it's just a little more. However, I also have an ugly saying in the front, if Commander Zhang accepts the official position of this court, he will not be able to do as he did before, although this toll is not small, but it includes the cost of road maintenance, which cannot be deducted, and there is a mistake in turning back, so Commander Zhang was removed from his official position, but don't say that I didn't remind you. ”

"That's nature, that's nature, there are no rules, there is no circle, although you can rest assured, I understand these truths, if the people below have a trace of greed for ink, I cut off their heads, if I have a trace of greed for ink, Lord An also cut off my head." Zhang Shan said righteously, he also understood that the imperial court may not be able to look down on a general of his background, if he really has a handle in the hands of others, he will not spare him, but that wealth is really charming, and he can't care about anything else for the benefit of this position.

"Hehe, Commander Zhang doesn't have to worry too much, my master said, don't use suspicious people, don't doubt people, since you let Commander Zhang be the captain of this road guard, he will naturally trust you, and he won't deliberately ask you for trouble, after all, this road is not only related to the policy of the imperial court, but also related to Commander Zhang's net worth, presumably Commander Zhang is more concerned than anyone else."

As soon as he heard Chonglou say this, Zhang Shan's tears were about to fall, "The parents who gave birth to me, the Hou Ye who knows me, it would be great if I could meet Hou Ye earlier, maybe I can work with you now." ”

Seeing Zhang Shan's virtue, Chonglou also smiled, half of the master's task has been completed, and the rest is some details, but since the tone is set, the things that will be done later will be much easier.
