All the way back to the City Lord's Mansion, I saw Rong'er, who I hadn't seen for a long time.

But as the saying goes, Shibei should be impressed for three days, and I haven't seen each other for some days, Rong'er is becoming more and more slim, and her breasts are obviously developing well, and they have begun to take shape, but they still stick to me like that.

Brother... When he saw me, he ran up and rode directly to my waist, and his arms tightened my neck.

Ahem... Rong'er... Ahem, you're going to strangle me? Come down...

No... You've been gone for a long time, practicing every day, and you're bored to death... Rong'er said coquettishly.

Ok ok... Isn't my brother too busy to take a break, come and see what kind of cultivation is there?

Hum... Reluctantly, he pouted and said, I am already a samurai consummation, precipitating and precipitating, ready to break through the martial arts.

Good... Yes, when it comes to the Great Perfection of the Military Generals, you can help my brother.

Uh-huh... It's a must.

Keichi followed behind him, not speaking, and when he saw me looking at him, he grinned, and felt that Keichi was getting more and more quiet. But at first glance, he has already entered the beginner level of martial arts, which is not bad.

By the way, Fugui, how do you look at this sword? If you use it well, I'll get you one. With that, he threw his sword over.

Catch the sword, gently pull it apart, plain, no sound, when the whole sword was pulled out, I saw the true face of Lushan, waved it twice, sighed lightly, good sword...

Fugui, you rotate the hilt and scabbard of your sword, and you are trying. I laughed from the sidelines.

Be... After speaking, he directly put his hands together, and only listened to the sermon:

Click.

The long sword, which was originally two parts, suddenly formed a sharp machete.

This... Not only Fugui was stunned. Zhuge Jin and Gongsun Ce, who had just come in, were also stunned.

The visual impact of this change is too great.

Master... This is the sword you designed?" Zhuge Jin said with his eyes lit up.

Well... Not bad.

If this is extended to the whole army... At this time, Zhuge Jin was already incoherent.

In fact, anyone who understands military affairs can see that the long sword is not heavy, and it is good for sergeants to wear it, and it can play the greatest lethality in the process of handing over short soldiers, even better than a saber.

However, the only drawback to both the saber and the saber is that they cannot be used as spears at long distances. But this sword makes up for this shortcoming.

I waved my hand to stop what he was going to say.

Let's go... Let's talk about it after dinner!

Then everyone had a happy dinner. It's just that a few of us went into the study again and began to discuss.

Master... This sword???

All right... Zhuge Jin, in the short term, I will not promote this knife to the whole army. On the one hand, it is not so easy to build, and it is more about secrecy. This sword, if the dynasty knows about it, what do you think will happen?

So... I'm only going to use this kind of legion and reserve for the time being, and of course there are a few of you, you can equip it, because this sword can't be lost for the time being, do you understand?

Got it... Everyone nodded.

By the way, Fugui, tell me what you've been up to lately.

Be... Young master, recently I am preparing to form a chamber of commerce alliance, recently in the trade zone, large and small shops, there are no less than a thousand, clothing, food and soldiers, etc., but there is a lack of a unified management mechanism.

It is impossible for me to look at it every day, especially the price, including the service, etc., so I found some old shopkeepers with relatively old qualifications and reputation, and prepared to form a chamber of commerce.

On the one hand, it can effectively manage the entire trade area, and on the other hand, it can play the role of tax collection and supervision. At present, the stage of effective discussions has basically begun.

In addition, at present, we do not have a munitions store, this piece, we are more difficult, I think about it, the current military supply of our 80,000 people is allocated by the dynasty, but once the city of Tianqian turns its face, what should we do?

So at the same time, I am also communicating with some stores, preparing to secretly form a direct supply store for military supplies. It doesn't matter what you do in peacetime, but when you need to make military supplies, you must do it on time and in quantity.

Well... Yes, the idea of wealth is very good, you must grasp this piece, and I suggest that this chamber of commerce is not only the county town, but all the shops in the small towns below should be included in the management.

Be... Got it.

Well... You two also talk about it, I will look at Zhuge Jin and Gongsun Ce.

The two glanced at each other, and finally Gongsun Ce stood up.

Lang Sheng: Young master, of the 10 towns currently designed, 9 towns have begun to re-plan and expand, and it is expected that the planning and expansion will be completed within 3 months.

At present, Brother Zhuge and I have been elected by the people and elected 9 mayors, who are directly responsible for the overall planning of the expansion of the town.

At present, the total population of Feixi County has reached more than 30 million, and all of them have been registered and vouchers have been issued. The good land is still being counted, and it has not yet been reported.

Well... Yes, but the total population here needs to be controlled, priority should be given to satisfying the original villagers, and when accepting foreign population, we must do a good job of review.

Well... Young master, rest assured, we have been doubly careful in this area, whether it is the foreign population or the returning population, they all need to be recommended by others, but I can't help but guarantee that there will be no spies moving in.

Well... This one is there, don't be afraid of anything, this one is fine. Zhuge Jin, did you have a report?

Back to the young master, at present, the front line has formulated a battle plan to face the barbarians, and I have approved it, and the overall feasibility is very high, but it also lacks some necessary security measures.

So I have replied to them to rectify and take precautions, and as for the town where the troops are currently stationed, my personal opinion is to set up a military supplies town and let some shops move in voluntarily.

It's said when no one stays. The substitute sergeant is training hard now, but this...

Say... This and that.

Our army rations are running out, according to the blood report, the rations of the whole army can only last for 4 days at most, if there is no food and grass after 3 days, I am afraid...

Have you sent someone to Tianqian City to ask for food and grass?" I asked with a frown?

I already went, but I was sent away without seeing him. It seems that Zhuge Jin is also angry.

Good... Very good.... I'll go and ask for it myself tomorrow. I'm here to see what I want to do.

Is there anything else to report?

At this time, Su Xiong, who had been silent, actually asked in an urn voice, Boss, I want to go to the front line.

I glanced at him and looked at his posture, as if I was going to do it if I didn't get him to the front.

Not... Okay, you wait two days, tomorrow I'll draw you a weapon blueprint, and when the weapon is ready, you can go, and take your tiger with you, and keep it well.

Be... Boss, hehe...

In the end, he didn't speak in the dark night, where he was holding back.

I glanced at it and said lightly, you are all scattered...

In the end, only the darkness remained.

Let's talk about it... There is something to say.

This kung fu martial arts thing... There's also that I want to retreat, I want to go further to the half-step martial king, you see?

Not... I was silent in thought. After thinking for a while, he said, Martial Arts is not a problem, but I don't recommend that you go to the half-step Martial King, because once you get stuck in this bottleneck.

You need to spend a huge amount of time to make up for it, so I suggest that you go out and experience the experience, wash the shin and marrow with the marrow washing solution, and the state of mind is the most difficult step to break through to the Martial King.

Many people stop at the peak of martial arts for life, the reason is the state of mind, I suggest that you go through the tempering of life and death, to understand your state of mind, now forge the body first, in the shin and marrow.

When the marrow is washed, either go to the army or go to the mountains, in short, to understand life and death, and when the state of mind arrives, it will naturally come to fruition.

Be... I see, thank you Boss...

What's polite... Wait a minute, I'll write you the martial arts.

I didn't say anything all night, and early the next morning, I had breakfast, rode on a fast horse, and went straight to Tianqian City, and I didn't bring any of my entourage. This made Zhuge Jin jump to his feet. But alas, I'm the boss.

It took 3 hours all the way non-stop, and finally arrived at Tianqian City.

The city is still the same, and it will not be less prosperous because of the loss of some civilians.

Ride straight to the City Lord's Mansion

Sigh.... Ride your horse to the city lord's mansion, turn over and dismount.

Hold it... The city lord's mansion is heavy, and idlers are not allowed to enter. The guard spoke

I don't care about you... I flicked one of my robes and shook the two guards at the door over. Shouted directly, go and report to the city lord, and say that you are waiting for a visit.

Yes yes yes ... The two guards crawled to the back.

In less than a cup of tea, a hearty laugh came...

Ha ha... Brother Su is here, don't you want such a big fire! Xiang Wentian sat in a white shirt, took a leisurely step, kept shaking the folding fan in his hand, and walked over.

Hehe... Xiang City Lord, you are so Yaxing, why am I so hot, don't you know?

Come on, come on... The house said that the house said that they were going to come over and put their arms around my shoulders.

I took a step back and said lightly, Xiang City Lord, I don't dare to enter this City Lord's Mansion, I'm afraid that I have a life to go in, but I don't have a life to come out, so I will ask you a word to the City Lord, is there or not this grain and grass?

This... Xiang Wentian suddenly made a blank face, the smile on his face disappeared, and he said lightly, Su Junshou, this grain and grass problem, since you are here, then we have to talk about it.

As far as I know, your actual army soldiers are only more than 40,000 now, and I wonder if you are asking for 80,000 troops of grain and grass, is it a bit too much? You also know that the grain and grass are allocated by the imperial dynasty.

Do you count as enriching your own pockets?

Hehe... Xiang City Lord, say something you don't like to hear, as for why I only have more than 40,000 soldiers and horses now, you should know better than anyone else, you don't need me to say more, you need me to report to the imperial court urgently?

Let's just say that the Tianqian Pass and the Tianqian City have kicked all the old, weak, sick and disabled sergeants who should have retired to me, and they can also smoothly replenish the new sergeants?

I don't know what the emperor thinks when the time comes?

You... Xiang Wentian was speechless for a moment.

Don't think that my twists and turns must go to you, I will tell you the truth, I have an eight-hundred-mile urgent mail licensed by the emperor, if you don't believe it, you can try it and see who the emperor believes.
