Chapter 221 Internal Affairs and People's Livelihood
"Kill!"
In the roar, with a snowy sword flash, blood splattered, and a good head rose to the sky, and the fear, surprise and other expressions on it were completely frozen!
As if doing a trivial thing, Li Rui put the knife into the sheath extremely skillfully, neatly, unconsciously, he had a sharp temperament, this is the last Yellow Turban bandit here, and before, he killed thirteen Yellow Turban bandits by himself, which is just a trivial matter. Fastest update [Premiere]
"The leader of the team is mighty! Our brother will follow you in the future, you told us to kill chickens, we will never kill pigs! "Behind Li Rui is a thin monkey-like man, who looks no more than seventeen or eighteen years old, but he is extremely smooth, before the disaster, such a guy has another name, called a little ruffian.
Li Rui ignored the kid, turned his head and roared, "Assemble!" The whole team! Hurry up, you pigs, do you want to level up? Want to get stronger? Want to live? Then speed up for me and give me all the strength to feed! You only have one day, or even less, and you can't reach the most basic level 15, so you just wait to die! ”
With Li Rui's roar, nearly fifty people hurriedly gathered from the bloody battlefield around them, except for a few people, the rest were all pale, and there were even unsteady Cun Zài with trembling legs, and there were many decayed goods who peed their pants.
Li Rui looked at them expressionlessly, he knew very well that if these people were given even two days of buffer time, they would be able to adapt and grow, but they only had one day, and then, they still had to face the unpredictable army of the Yellow Turban Army, how many people could survive in the last fifty-person recruit training team? Ten? Or five, or even all of them?
But Li Rui didn't care, he was originally the captain of a scout team under Tang Kun, and his strength was not bad, at least, he already knew how to make the quickest choice between killing others and being killed by others.
Originally, he should have evacuated Chishan City with Tang Kun's men and horses, and then hid far away to watch the excitement, but he chose to stay, without any righteous and noble goals and motives, he was not interested or qualified to comment on Tang Kun or Chu Haoran, Zhou Yue's behavior, he would not care about any such as the common people in the world, the responsibility of the husband, etc., he only cared about his own life, and then, there was a little bit of ridiculous reason.
He just wanted to look at the white-armored knight who could kill him with a single move, even though he didn't know what the female knight's name was. Do you have a favorite man? Are you even married and have children?
But that qiē doesn't matter, Li Rui just wants to take another look, that sassy back, and that pair of eyes that exude infinite murderous aura, but are extremely beautiful.
Therefore, Li Rui stayed, as a scout who was not too good, he easily blended into the recruits under Qin Lang, and now he was making a mess everywhere, and his life was as cheap as grass, so naturally there would be no identity inquiry, pupil confirmation and the like, everyone only cared about their own lives, who would care that there was suddenly a stranger around him? As long as he doesn't infringe on his own interests, let him die!
In this way, Li Rui, who was already level 13, was picked by Xiao Jun's subordinates at a glance, plus he was very good, after the first three hours of warm-up, he was appointed as the leader of a training team of fifty people, responsible for leading everyone forward and strangling all the Yellow Turban bandits he saw.
Compared with many other people's complaints and resentment, Li Rui was very excited, because he saw the powerful white-armored female knight again, although it was a few hundred meters away, although the war horse was whistling by, he still felt that the trip was worthwhile.
Now, Li Rui feels that his whole body, even the pores of sweat, are full of infinite power, he wants to become stronger, keep getting stronger, only in this way can he quickly close the distance between him and the white-armored female knight, he doesn't dare to ask too much, but in this world of disaster, in this world full of death and gloom, there can be such a touching bright color always at the forefront of the guidance, Li Rui feels that he is already a very happy person.
――――――――――――――――――
In Chishan City, five hundred meters east of the City Lord's Mansion, there is a very wide flat land, surrounded by a fence, only a nine-meter-high archway provides access, this is the training ground of Chishan City, it is currently a level 1, training inside, and the proficiency per hour is increased by 5% faster than outside, but this is not the most critical benefit, but training here, all the consumed body and strength value recovery speed will be doubled, in addition, real opponents are also needed, in this training ground, there are their own training stakes and arrow targets.
When Zhou Yue walked in here, Liu Yue had already arranged for forty archers and sixty elites of the heavy shield battalion to train here, because this place could only accommodate a hundred people for training, so this kind of training needed to be rotated every two hours, anyway, day and night.
Of course, entering the training ground for training is not free, it costs twenty silver for an hour, half of the income is used to maintain the training ground, and half is automatically handed over to the city lord's mansion.
However, this kind of small money is nothing, and now Zhou Yue has implemented a silver tael distribution system in the entire team, and according to their respective gains, each person can leave half of the silver taels, and the remaining half will be handed over to the team, so basically everyone is considered to be wealthy.
After Zhou Yue checked the training ground, he didn't stay too long, he rushed all the way to the westernmost workshop of the City Lord's Mansion, and when he walked from afar, he found that it was really lively, and it was estimated that it was the most crowded place in the entire Chishan City.
There are almost no Yellow Turban craftsmen left in the original workshop of Chishan City, either dead or escaped, or in the hands of Tang Kun and Chu Haoran, if it weren't for the Deng Jia clan to join, Zhou Yue would have to stare dryly.
The Deng family now has one intermediate craftsman, fifteen junior craftsmen, and two hundred subordinates, which is enough to support the operation of the entire workshop, not to mention, Zhou Yue also brought back 1,500 hard laborers, who cannot be used to fight, but they are still quite qualified to do coolies, so in this shortest time, the entire workshop is running rapidly.
Of course, this is also a big gold-swallowing household, when Zhou Yue came over, he saw that Liu Yue was personally leading here, issuing various orders from time to time, and was very busy, and not far away, Xiao Nan Nan was running all over the ground, squeaking, so unhappy, and the person who was specifically responsible for taking care of Xiao Nan Nan was the four servant women selected from the Deng family, as well as the four subordinate soldiers subdued by Xiao Jun, none of them were modern people, since the experience of Huang Xuan, whether it was Zhou Yue or Xiao Jun and his wife, they no longer trusted modern people, On the contrary, these NPCs have a tendon in their heads, and there will never be betrayal mistakes and so on.
Zhou Yue stepped forward and grabbed the little girl who was drilling in the crowd, this little girl, why is she so naughty, she should be quiet!
"Uncle, let's play hide and seek, whoever loses is a puppy, and we have to learn to bark." Xiao Nan hugged Zhou Yue's neck and said in a milky voice, now after this period of contact, the little guy is also very familiar with Zhou Yue, very close, but the headache is that this little girl is too ghostly, and sometimes Zhou Yue is so tormented by her that she has no temper.
"Xiaonan, don't mess around, uncle is very busy, you are not allowed to make trouble! Did you memorize the Tang poem I taught you yesterday? If you dare to be playful, watch me spank you. At this time, Liu Yue raised her head, said quickly, very strictly, Xiao Nan immediately shrunk into Zhou Yue's arms, she is now the most afraid of her mother, because everyone in the whole team is very spoiled by this little girl, not to mention Xiao Jun, who is like a baby bump all day long.
"Hey, Liu Yue, you don't have to be so strict, it's always good for children to relax." Zhou Yue said with a smile, Liu Yue at this time looked like an ordinary housewife.
"Humph! Brother Zhou, I want to criticize you on this, can I do it if I don't be strict? So many of you spoil her, and no one cares about her, I think she will become a little monkey, and now, although she is in a disaster, her studies cannot be delayed, and the reason why people are human is not because they are strong, but because they are sensible, know right and wrong, and insist on what they insist on. Liu Yue can be called sharp-toothed, and Zhou Yue was speechless when he said something, so he could only obediently put Xiao Nan back, this little guy didn't know whether he was lucky or unlucky, not only to learn modern knowledge, but also to follow a private school teacher of the Deng family to learn from him, painting, art, music, etc., etc., all of them did not refuse.
But then again, Liu Yue is so good in her own right, and of course she can't tolerate her daughter being weaker than her.
"How's the workshop going?" At this time, Zhou Yue asked.
"The workshop is not bad at present, with the craftsmen of the Deng family, it can basically maintain normal operation, but there are two troubles, the first is the problem of time, three days is too short, it is estimated that there are not too many defensive equipment, in addition, there are only three catapults left in Chishan City, so, Brother Zhou, we have to find another way, we are not good at defending the city, and such a big city, we only have five or six thousand people, it is a drop in the bucket!"
Liu Yue said with some concern, "And the second trouble is that the cost of building equipment is too high, the total amount of silver seized by our previous team is about four hundred and thirty gold, originally I thought it would be no problem to build four eight-ox crossbows, but when I arrived at the workshop, I knew that it was not so simple, first of all, we had to buy materials from merchants, due to the chaos, all the materials increased in price by 200%, in addition, we also had to pay for the craftsmen, as well as arrange the food and lodging of those hard laborers, Brother Zhou, this is not a trivial matter, Although the Deng family defected to our Chishan City, they still need Yulu, after all, they also have a small family, and moreover, they have Yulu in their hands, they will automatically go to the merchants to buy all kinds of daily necessities, which will definitely play a role in the prosperity of Chishan City's commerce, which cannot be saved! ”
"In addition, I plan to build enough houses for the hard labor in the open space south of the workshop, and then give them a monthly stipend, so that they can settle down in Chishan City, get married and have children, although for the time being, I can't see any benefits, but after a long time, it will also be of great benefit to improve the popularity and prestige of Chishan City, in addition to deducting the cost of these aspects, we can only build an eight-ox crossbow, and it will take three days to do so."
