Back in Zijin County, Zhang Zhongjun did not go directly to the city after leaving the caravan, but found a house to live in, and happily counted the spoils of his procurement operation.

He didn't even calculate how much money he spent in total, he only needed to calculate how many things he got, after all, more than 200 billion divine coins were stored in the chessboard magic weapon, and he didn't feel good about using 100 million, and it was impossible to use up 100 million divine coins for this purchase, and even 10,000 divine coins might not have it.

Anyway, Zhang Zhongjun only knew that he had 535 French spears, 175 French swords, 23 sets of French armor, and 1,345 other strange French devices.

As for the efficacy of these devices, Zhang Zhongjun didn't understand it at all, and he didn't bother to understand it, anyway, he just used it for collection, and then he used it as a gift, and it was not worth a few dollars.

As for the magic powder, the 9 counties have more or less each received about 100 catties, and the spell powder in Lingcheng is more, a thousand catties, adding up to more than 2,000 catties, that is, so many spell powders have reclaimed up to 200 acres of mature land.

Zhang Zhongjun counted the harvest of this collection, picked a French war knife at random, and carried it out of the dormitory to the city to hand in the task.

Zhang Zhongjun was very happy, this time he bought so many French items, and he could take on a task of purchasing French equipment every month, and then he could do his own thing during the mission, and when the task deadline was approaching, he would come back and hand over a piece of French equipment to complete the task.

Hehe, that is, you don't have to lack money to do this, but it's okay, you have a lot of time to do your own things, and you don't have to be bound by the rules of the retainers.

Zhang Zhongjun, who passed the identity verification at the city gate, rushed to the task hall in high spirits, handed over the task, and someone came to check the French war knife, and after confirming that it was correct, Zhang Zhongjun's meritorious points were recorded.

Just when Zhang Zhongjun wanted to leave, the recorder suddenly stopped Zhang Zhongjun: "Lord Kurokawa Masatoku, please wait, there is still a task." ”

"Huh?" Zhang Zhongjun looked back in astonishment.

The clerk understood very well what Zhang Zhongjun's eyes meant, and said very calmly: "Newcomer rules, after completing the first procurement task, immediately carry out the public security task!"

"Immediately carry out the public security task?" Zhang Zhongjun was a little confused, isn't this supposed to be a monthly mission? Why did the newcomer carry out the public security task just after completing the procurement task and before he had time to rest. ”

"The procurement task is to familiarize you with the surrounding environment, and the security task is to make you newcomers familiar with the home environment, which is the task of training you, so the tasks of the newcomers are one after another, and there is no point of rest. The clerk said indifferently.

Since it is a rule used to train newcomers, it is natural that it cannot be avoided or refused, so Zhang Zhongjun had no choice but to sigh and say, "Okay, then where am I responsible for the security patrol?"

"You first take the task slip to the commission hall to exchange for the order to receive the soldiers, and then go to the training ground to take away a team of ashigaru, well, more than half of these ashigaru are newcomers, so that the new samurai with half recruits and half veterans of the security patrol mission, it can be regarded as a double thing. ”

Zhang Zhongjun naturally understood what this move was, didn't it not only train the new samurai to be familiar with their own home environment, but also exercise the recruits' organizational skills.

As for exercising combat ability? Please, the guy who can become Ashigaru, although he is a new soldier, he is definitely the best among the peasant soldiers, otherwise where would he be selected as Ashigaru? You must know that Ashigaru has already led the Yuroku, and in the original meaning, they are all public servants like these pen officials and miscellaneous servants, but everyone performs different duties.

If you really want to talk about it, Ashigaru has a bright future as a full-time combatant, because all the brand-new samurai who really have no foundation are promoted by Ashigaru.

Therefore, the so-called training of recruits is to make these recruits fit into the habits of full-time soldiers, such as queues, discipline, and comradeship.

Zhang Zhongjun got the task slip and looked at it slightly, which said that he said that he would lead a team of ashigaru to be responsible for the safety of the road from Boyang Town to Zijin County.

Blinking his eyes, he had heard those old warriors in the city chatting, Boyang Town was considered a subsidiary force of the Zichuan family, that is, Boyang Town would be a part of the Zichuan family tomorrow, but secretly it was in a semi-independent state. Because this town was not really shot down by the Zichuan family, but forced the other party to surrender with diplomatic strategy and general momentum.

That is to say, although the banner of the Zichuan family was hung in Boyang Town, there were flags of other samurai families under the banner, and as for the samurai retainers of these samurai families, they had little to do with the Zichuan family. For according to the custom of this world, the lord of the lord is not my lord, and the retainers of the retainers are not my retainers.

The Zichuan family can naturally order these surrendering warriors to do things, but how to deal with the samurai below the samurai, that is, the Zichuan family has no choice but to force the samurai to execute strongly, and cannot directly force the samurai retainers below to do things strongly.

Things like this are almost taken for granted in this world, such as the Zichuan family, don't look at him jumping from the village lord to the county lord in five years, but he still has to find a big martial artist who is in the county and coaxed in the territory to surrender.

On the bright side, the Zichuan family is naturally the force of this great martial artist, but many things, the Zichuan family still does what is beneficial to itself, not in the direction that is beneficial to this great martial artist.

Moreover, when the strength of the Zichuan family catches up with that great martial artist, it will definitely be natural to propose to terminate the surrender treaty, and if the other party is unwilling, then the battle on the next gram will also naturally occur. And this kind of subordination, returning his meow will not cause the disgust of the world, but the world will laugh at the great martial artist for not knowing the taste.

Of course, all this is under the condition that the Zichuan family can defeat that great martial artist, if the Zichuan family is defeated, but it is suppressed in turn, then don't expect the Zichuan family to have a good reputation.

Therefore, in the final analysis, any world is a fist-big decision, but some worlds are displayed naked, and some worlds will be clothed with a layer of legal system, rules, and so on.

Zhang Zhongjun muttered in his heart: "Damn, you actually let Lao Tzu go to such a dangerous place? Does someone want to murder Lao Tzu?" No wonder Zhang Zhongjun thinks so, he said that Boyang Town belongs to the territory controlled by the vassal martial artists, and some of these vassal martial artists are concentrating on holding the thighs of the Zichuan family, and naturally there are indispensable martial artists who are yang and yin.

Zhang Zhongjun had heard those old warriors say that there were more public security incidents on the road from Boyang Town to Zijin County than in the most remote villages, and compared with the public security incidents caused by demons, ghosts, secret agents, and fierce beasts in other places, many of the public security incidents on the road from Boyang Town to Zijin County were made by insiders.

This is very clear, some people in Boyang Town want to cut off the road connecting Zijin County, so that the semi-independent advantages of Boyang Town can be brought into greater play.

Therefore, this kind of security patrol task that should obviously not be used to train newcomers will actually be sent to himself, if no one is murdered, Zhang Zhongjun will never believe it.
