Zhang Zhongjun didn't go to the village where his Zhixing was located to take a look, not because the distance was far away or anything, but in Zhang Zhongjun's opinion, just 10 stone Zhixing is a fart, and such a small place needs to be deliberately wasted once a year to go and see?

After joining the martial arts family, Zhang Zhongjun learned that there was a special passage within the territory of the martial family, which was specially arranged by the mages in the family, not the kind of teleportation, but similar to the kind of spells cast by caravan exorcists.

However, the speed is much slower than that of the caravan, but if the samurai borrows the channel at home to travel, if it is a mission, there is naturally no need to review the cost or something, and the mission slip is the ticket to use this channel. But if you don't have a task and want to use the channel, it's not something money can solve, it's a benefit.

Ashigaru doesn't have to think about having this benefit, the captain of Ashigaru has such a benefit once a year, and wants to increase the power to use the channel several times a year? One is to improve his own status, and the other is to exchange merit for meritorious service.

Here is a point to make it clear that at the beginning of the martial arts in this world, rewards and punishments are arbitrary, there are wise and martial family governors, naturally there are family governors like waste materials, and there are more family governors who are also mediocre, in the case of doing whatever they want, each martial artist is a miasma.

How to say it, because the reward is arbitrary, that is, whoever gets the favor of the governor can tempt the governor, then he can get the reward, in this case, work hard to strengthen the martial family, it is better to pat the governor's ass, easy and comfortable, and can also crazy to get great benefits and take away a lot of power.

At that time, the retainers who did things were suppressed by the retainers who were sycophants, so that these retainers who did things fled one after another, and slowly gathered under the command of a wise samurai, and then worked together to help this samurai dominate the world.

Then these retainers of extraordinary status, in order to prevent the descendants of the treacherous generation from suppressing the laborers, deliberately quantified the work, and the reward was also changed to the quantification of cooperation.

How to say this quantification, it's very simple, for example, let you recruit troops, the task is to recruit 100 sturdy ashigaru, as long as you complete it, then you can get the standard merit 100 points, and you are awesome, you spent money to recruit 200 sturdy ashigaru, then it will naturally give you an extra merit of 200 points.

The merit points can be used to purchase the number of channels, and after the merit reaches the critical point, you can apply for a higher position, and you can apply to increase your knowledge and action.

It seems that the power of the governor is directly programmed and digitized, so that the governor has nothing to do, if the mediocre governor must like such rules very much, but the shrewd governor is extremely disgusted with this kind of rule that suppresses his own power.

It's just that this rule has been passed down for countless years, forcing the family governor to dislike this rule anymore, but he also has to recognize that maintaining this rule is the secret to keeping the family name alive. After all, a wise governor doesn't know how many years it takes to appear, but a mediocre governor is common, and even a garbage governor occasionally appears.

You may ask, why is there such a rule, and how can there be a samurai family?

It's normal, the rules are also enforced, if the talent of the governor is obviously very mediocre, but he thinks that he is very good, that is, to control the power, then no matter how good the rules are, who can do anything about it?

And the stupid and obedient family governor will naturally act according to this rule, and dare not say that the family has developed because of this, unless other martial arts families are destroyed by force, otherwise there is no problem in maintaining its long-term existence.

And the mediocre and shrewd family governor who wants to grasp the power naturally has a way, that is, the power to appoint positions and canonize Zhixing is only in his own hands, and then the rest comes according to the rules.

This is obviously a middle-of-the-road choice, and after it spreads, it has naturally become the choice of almost all martial artists.

That is to say, almost all samurai families have such merit points and task lists, because many resources cannot be purchased with money, but they need retainers to use these resources, so merit points, which are only used within the family, and also help the development of the family, the fake transaction currency naturally appears.

In this case, the retainers can concentrate on earning merit points, and the family is also growing because of the actions of the retainers, but the promotion of the position and the gift of knowledge and action are in the hands of the family governor, which allows the family governor to control the family, and the retainers are dependent on the family because of the merit points, and also because the family governor is in control of his own future, and he is loyal to the family governor, so it can be said that everyone is happy.

What is dependence? That is, it is almost impossible for a retainer to leave the family for no reason, after all, he has accumulated a lot of merit points in the family, and even some merit points are even passed down from his ancestors, so it is completely impossible for them to give up easily. Of course, if someone comes to buy it, as long as you come over, how many merit points you have here, I will double it on my side, and as soon as this kind of treatment comes out, you can generally attract people over.

But doubling the solicitation like this, and directly giving so many merit points, the old ministers in the family must be unhappy, so using this method to dig people sometimes does not necessarily weaken the strength of the hostile martial artist, or even turn it over to weaken the strength of their own family. Therefore, all martial artists are very cautious in poaching people.

After all, your Zhixing who has been in business for many years is in the hinterland of others, so discarding it and not starting over will definitely be a huge loss, not a huge conflict of interest, and few people will be poached.

Zhang Zhongjun came to the side of the main hall in the center of the city, the gate of the central hall was closed, and several ashigaru guarded it, this place would only be opened if the governor held a meeting of all the retainers, received the envoys of the imperial court, other martial envoys, and various celebrations. For daily activities, this hall is not activated. As long as the samurai castle is large enough to build such a tall and magnificent building, it will be specially built for such an important meeting, and it is usually used to raise mosquitoes, and I don't know what the people of this world think.

Zhang Zhongjun, who was thinking wildly, followed the crowd to the side hall, and according to his level, he came to the task distribution hall that belonged to the captain of the ashigaru.

There were two young people standing in the mission distribution hall, busily explaining the ranks of the mission to the illiterate samurai, and two pen clerks were writing the task list at a rapid pace.

However, not all the samurai who come will take the task, many people just take the opportunity to come here to meet the newcomer, take the opportunity to say hello, and then meow the task bar, see that there is no one they like, pat their butts and leave.
