"You 18 people, do you want to make a fortune and become a big official!?" Zhang Xiao pulled his "semi-motorized donkey cavalry mixed team" aside and asked in a low voice. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Hearing Zhang Xiao's abrupt words, most of the villagers seemed panicked at this time, but it was undeniable that the eyes of these villagers were shining with greed, but Alonso stood up very simply and replied simply: "Master, you speak! Alonso will definitely follow to the death!"

"I, Alonso, swear by the Almighty God, from now on to follow Lord Bonaparte and become the most loyal servant of the Lord, always by his side!" said Alonso, kneeling down and kissing Zhang Xiao's upper.

Looking at Alonso's movements, the other 17 villagers hesitated for a moment, then knelt on the ground and kissed the ground: "We are also willing to follow the master forever to make achievements!"

This is a form of surrender from a group of people to a person, just like in a wolf pack, ordinary wolves will lie on the ground and expose their stomachs when they meet a wolf, human beings are essentially animals, animals have servility, and people are just like that, when they see a head wolf worth following, they will not hesitate to offer their freedom.

"Very well, from now on, you will be my servants of Bonaparte, and one day I will lead you to become the noble lords who are all high! With dozens of wives and hundreds of serfs!" Zhang Xiao promised his empty promises without hesitation.

"Follow the lord to the death!" the villagers shouted in unison.

"Very good!" Zhang Xiao saw that things were going very well, nodded and continued: "You guys will quietly leave the village later, and wait for me five miles north of Yicun Village, and you won't go home with everyone tonight." ”

Although everyone still couldn't understand Zhang Xiao's arrangement, since they had chosen to surrender, these 18 people also chose to obey, and they quietly rode donkeys and left Yicun according to Zhang Xiao's instructions.

"How did you discuss?" After sending off his "semi-motorized donkey cavalry mixed team", Zhang Xiao walked to the villagers in the east of the village and asked.

"Sir, are you telling the truth? really you don't have to pay taxes in the future?" Seeing Zhang Xiao's question, a middle-aged man who walked out of the crowd asked cautiously.

"Yes, but only you are exempt from taxes, but your food and lodging will be solved uniformly, that is to say, as long as you are still a member of the village protection team, you can eat and live, and you will have money every six months, until you retire at the age of 50, and there will be a retirement pension of 10 copper coins after you go home, provided that you obey my arrangement. ”

"Okay, master, we're done!" The middle-aged man who came out on behalf of the villagers in the east of the village gritted his teeth and agreed to Zhang Xiao's arrangement, and continued to ask: "Master, can we really take our family over?"

"Yes, but I don't guarantee your family's food and lodging. Zhang Xiao replied.

"Thank you, sir, thank you, we must all listen to you!" the middle-aged man nodded fiercely.

"Well, since you have decided, you must do it. Zhang Xiao casually pointed to the seven people: "If you seven people want to go home and arrange what your family should arrange, and then bring some of your daily necessities! Remember to only take a few changes of clothes and quilts, as well as the weapons you have now, and no other miscellaneous things!"

"The rest of the people, when they come back, the second batch will go home to sort out and arrange, and the rules are the same, you know!?" Zhang Xiao said angrily.

"Yes, sir!" The seven villagers who were pointed out by Zhang Xiao left Yi Village very neatly, looking like arrows.

"The eight of you can go to those empty houses to rest for the time being, that will be where you will be stationed in the future, remember, don't disturb the villagers here, otherwise I will be the first to hang you!" Zhang Xiao has a lot of things to do now, so he sent these people away as soon as possible.

Hearing the word hanging, all the villagers subconsciously shuddered, and then quickly ran back to the empty house.

Looking at the remaining 24 people, Zhang Xiao asked with a smile: "The conditions of the villagers in the east of the village just now are also applicable to you, but you don't need to hand over your own land, not only your personal tax exemption, but your land only needs to pay half of the tax, the price is that you may have to run around in the future, and you will only have a chance to rest and go home once a year, and even a few years later, it is possible for you to stand up if you are willing." ”

Hearing Zhang Xiao's words, the 24 villagers who were still resting in place looked left and right, and it seemed that after some hesitation, 8 villagers stood up after a while, 6 of the 8 villagers, two men in their 30s, seemed to be singles in the village, this happened Zhang Xiao was expected, good men are not soldiers, and villagers who already have families will not leave their hometowns so easily, on the other hand, these young people are full of vitality and ambition, they are more willing to go out to work hard, and these people who feed the whole family are not hungry are attracted by this high salary。

What makes Zhang Xiao happy is that there are only 7 young people in the villagers this time, and these 7 people have all stayed, which is the spark for their own development in the future.

"Okay, you eight wait a while, and all the remaining 16 of you will come over and take your 1 copper coin away. "Zhang Xiao is the head of the village, and the money in the village is all on him, but their village is barren, and all the taxes add up to only 75 copper coins, just now he gave one to the old Hillman, and now he took out 16 at one time, so Zhang Xiao spent 17 copper coins back and forth.

Zhang Xiao roughly calculated, 7 donkeys, and another 21 copper coins, tied to 1 more of the village chief of Cross, rescued 5 companions and 5, and the 18 "semi-motorized donkey cavalry mixed squad" It's double again, that's 36, those villagers in the east of the village, the settling-in fee plus the first salary, plus this reward, a total of 15 villagers, and 30 copper coins, the remaining 8 people who are willing to follow themselves, if they participate in their own plans at night, then they will have to pay 26 copper coins, all plus, Zhang Xiao needs to spend 136 copper coins, which is equivalent to 1 silver coin plus 36 copper coins.

Just when Zhang Xiao had a headache, Geman came back and came back with money!
