Chapter 664: Harvest (6)

Zhang Zhongjun saw the text on the parchment scroll at first glance: "Quang Nam Province Nobility Territory Division", and then look at the administrative map of Quang Nam Province below, a circle of green color wraps the entire province, but except for seven or eight red pieces near Quang Nam Province, the rest of the place is left blank.

"Green is the position that allows you to choose, and red is the noble domain that already has a lord, you can pick a piece now. The mayor said, pointing to the map.

Zhang Zhongjun blinked his eyes, could it be so coincidental? This circle of green blocks is the border line of Quang Nam Province, and they are all places far away from the city.

But he didn't care, he looked at the green spots along the coast, chose a piece of coastal land closest to Quang Nam Province and said, "Then this piece of land." ”

This time, the mayor didn't speak, but the master took a pen and filled in Zhang Hongyi's name, then looked at the map and said with a smile: "Lord Zhang, you have picked a good place, where it is only three hundred kilometers away from Guangnan Fucheng, where it is near the sea, you will definitely be able to find a good port, but you can only expand 10 kilometers to the outside world, and if you want to expand the territory, you can only choose other places." ”

"Ah, why? I don't see any other nobles around?" Zhang Zhongjun asked in amazement.

"This is a rule, in fact, these green blocks, each of which is 100 square kilometers, can only be selected in one piece, and it can only be extended to 10 square kilometers in one place, which is said to be to prevent the nobles from sticking to one piece to avoid trouble. The master laughed.

Zhang Zhongjun was speechless, isn't he afraid that the aristocratic leader will be too large in a place, and the tail will be too big to fall, and he is afraid that several nobles will stick together and get along all year round, and the enemy will fight all day long to disturb the place, if it is a friend, it will be even more troublesome, several nobles are in unison, and the place is simply difficult to compete, so it is possible to make this kind of appearance that the two nobles are at least 50 kilometers apart!

So Zhang Zhongjun nodded: "Okay, 10 square kilometers, a total of 1,000 meritorious deeds, right?"

"Yes, if you only need this hawk's beak bend, then 10 square kilometers, and other territories? You have 7,300 merits left. The master asked with a smile as he wrote on another piece of paper.

"No need, I'll buy the people with the 5,000 merits. Zhang Zhongjun said with a smile.

"5,000 meritorious merit buyers, what are you going to do with the remaining 2,300 meritorious deeds?" The main book trembled a little when he said this, and everyone sitting next to him looked like they were listening with their ears pricked up, including the two nobles of the town mayor and the town lieutenant.

"Xia Guan doesn't have many resources, if he only has the territory and the people, this territory can't be built, so Xia Guan wants to transfer the rest of the merits, but I don't know if it's legal or not?" Zhang Zhongjun asked curiously.

The master bookkeeper smiled: "Of course it is legal, this merit is yours, and it is naturally up to you to decide." By the way, do you have a transferee?"

"Well, the lower officials are not familiar with these, why don't you ask all the adults present for help?" Zhang Zhongjun said and bowed to all the officials present.

"Haha, of course I didn't say it, we naturally want to help you little brother! And we will definitely not let you suffer!" The officials present laughed one by one, and in an instant, they were very cold to Zhang Zhongjun before, but now they are all very close to each other.

For those officials who are not nobles want their own merits, Zhang Zhongjun naturally understands very well, because people want to be nobles. On the contrary, Zhang Zhongjun was very strange, how could the two nobles, the mayor of the town and Jiang Qing, the captain of the town, get involved.

Although I know from Master Li that the mayor wants his second son to become a nobleman, since your merits can be traded, it is impossible for you to save less than 100 merits as a baron, how big of a problem will this merit be for your second son?

Zhang Zhongjun was very puzzled by this, but he didn't know this problem until he became a real lord and nobleman, and in order to limit the number of nobles, he made restrictions on meritorious transactions.

That is, only the first merit when he became a nobleman can be traded, and the subsequent feats must not be traded, and can only be used by himself.

This directly prevents the nobles from transferring their merits to their own children, if the merits are allowed to be traded freely, damn it, for those nobles above the viscount, they can casually make the whole clan become a lord with 100 merits.

Therefore, it is restricted that only the merits of becoming a nobleman can be traded, such as Zhang Zhongjun's act of selling gold beads, which is actually a kind of merit trade, which is allowed.

Zhang Zhongjun, who knew about this situation at that time, scolded loudly, he didn't know how to do it, so he was pinched by the Thirteen Princes, in fact, he could completely ignore the threat of the Thirteen Princes. Of course, if this weren't the case, Zhang Zhongjun would have been hiding in the mountains and forests like a fool and waiting for the ten-day deadline to pass, where would he provoke the White Lotus Sect to win so many feats.

But in the same way, Zhang Zhongjun also understood why Lord Huang, who bought his gold beads, didn't immediately become a lord, and dared to trade hundreds of more merits, otherwise if he only had a hundred merits, he would have obtained a deserted territory and become an empty nobleman.

Because of this, all the officials present traded with Zhang Zhongjun for a minimum of more than 200 meritorious deeds, and the remaining 2,300 meritorious deeds were divided among these officials in an instant.

As for the price, it is very gratifying, referring to the previous auction price of Zhang Zhongjun, 100 meritorious 4 million taels of golden tickets. Of course, some people don't want to take out a few stacks of golden tickets directly, and some people discuss it and give half of the golden tickets and half of the materials of the same value. For example, grain, clothing, wood, bricks and tiles, furniture, jerky, livestock, all kinds of tools, horse-drawn carts, cattle and sheep, boats, stones, and other materials, and even weapons and equipment and other items to exchange for the remaining amount.

Zhang Zhongjun traded all the 2,300 meritorious deeds, and got 20 million taels of golden tickets, as well as millions of stone of grain, millions of stone of jerky, hundreds of thousands of chickens, ducks, geese, dogs, cats, tens of thousands of cattle, sheep, pigs and horses, hundreds of carriages, dozens of merchant ships, and countless wood, stones, bricks and tiles, clothing and furniture, and so on.

The golden ticket was directly taken out and handed over to Zhang Zhongjun, and the materials were randomly written on a note by several officials present, with their signatures and official seals.

Zhang Zhongjun, who was holding so many things, didn't feel drifting at all, but was a little bitter, because he once said that he could exchange cheats for money, and low-level cheats could also be exchanged.

But no one cared about it, and everyone wrote the words of these materials on the paper, so they didn't give Zhang Zhongjun a secret book.

Not even a cheat, there is not a single book or anything like that. There are a lot of pots and pans, and even bookshelves in furniture, but there is not a single book!

Looking at the content on these papers, I felt that everyone didn't talk about books with them at all, who didn't know, in the eyes of these adults, money and materials were all external things, and even if it wasn't for the nobles, the people had to spend meritorious service to buy it, they couldn't wait to send Zhang Zhongjun's big ticket to the slaves to offset the price, but they wouldn't give a single book, obviously in their hearts, only books were real wealth.

Zhang Zhongjun was a little helpless in this regard, it seemed that he wanted to collect cheats and books, so he could only buy them with money in the market.

After the incident, everyone was in a hurry, and Zhang Zhongjun naturally retreated.

As for the matter of buying the people, their vote official divided 2,300 merits, and naturally helped Zhang Zhongjun handle it properly. However, they only guarantee that the people are absolutely the best, and they can't operate the miscellaneous households, because the upper ones are eager to make more messy miscellaneous households for the nobles.
