After Lin Yun finished speaking, he didn't stop at all. At this time, Fan Xiwen, who was standing by the fence of the cottage, saw Lin Feng and Lin Yun returning, and immediately ran towards them with everyone holding bows and arrows.

"Big brother, what should we do?" The ** of the five young people in Yanjia Village asked Yan Le. At this time, the hand holding the stick had begun to tremble, and his face was as white as white paper. Although the thirteen people in Chuzhai all look very young, the bright iron tools (mountain knives and machetes) in their hands make ** not to be ignored.

"The distance is so close that you can't run away, you can only fight to the death." Yan Le's face was also terrifyingly white, his palms and back were cold, but he was still pretending to be calm. He knew that the twenty or so of them would not be able to run, and only his young and strong people might still be able to survive.

"Who's the leader?" Fan Xiwen ran to the homeless people for a few minutes and said loudly to Yan Le.

"Little Yanle, the villagers are promoted as the leader." Yan Le stood in front of Fan Xiwen, only chattering. But his heartstrings are tight, and if something goes wrong, he will immediately attack the enemy leader standing in front of him.

In Yan Le's thinking, Chu Zhai has become a bandit village, and Lin Feng's gang standing in front of him is naturally those strongmen (commonly known as thieves) who kill people and sell goods.

"This son is the lord of Chu Village, why did he refuse the invitation of this village." This made the people in Chuzhai behind them speechless for a while, and others had to find a reason not to accept the invitation.

Yan Le: "......"

Fan Xiwen is definitely not a good product, obviously the other party can stop and understand the vernacular, but he just wants to say the popular language of the scholar class at that time, which is commonly known as ancient Chinese in modern times. At first glance, you can see that it is a typical pretend. But Fan Xiwen doesn't think so! In his opinion, he is building momentum for himself, which is something that a successful politician must master.

It's true, Fan Xiwen still used this trick well.

At that time, ancient Chinese was popular among the scholars (including the scholars of the Han family and the children of the family), and it was a symbol of scholars. Fan Xiwen's move vaguely made a good background for himself, and made Yan Le let go of the vigilance in his heart. This can be seen from the fact that Yan Le's hand holding the stick is slightly loose, which is exactly the result that Fan Xiwen wants.

Suddenly, Fan Xiwen had an urge to drool because he had discovered another promising side career for politicians, fooling people. Therefore, famous generals rely on flickering, strategists rely on flickering, and beauties should rely on flickering!

It is precisely because Fan Xiwen took the lead in fooling people, and the so-called upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked, so that the remaining twelve people (including Wang Fan and Wang Si) have a sullen nature, and they are showing their magic skills, so that many strategists are deceived and mistakenly cast into bad boys, for which they are called "the thirteen foxes of Chu State". The celebrity Jiang Gan returned to the rivers and lakes, just to give Fan Xiwen and other thirteen people a nickname. Liu Ke is known as the "Flash Fox", which is the best title among the thirteen, followed by Fan Fengming's title of "Double-faced Fox", and the most hateful thing is that Fan Xiwen was actually crowned with the title of "Thousand-faced Fox". At first, Fan Xiwen shouted that he was wronged, but he accepted it in less than half a month. Fan Xiwen is indeed fickle, and Qianhu deserves it.

Of course, this is a later story, so I won't mention it for the time being.

"We are anxious to find a place to stay, time is pressing, and I hope the owner of the village will forgive us." Yan Le casually found a reason and wanted to perfunctory the past.

"Ming people don't say dark words, my son hopes that everyone in Yanjia Village will join Chuzhai." Fan Xiwen gets straight to the point, giving people a bold feeling.

The words are clear, Yan Le is not good at perfunctory, in the face of the confident people of Chuzhai, what Yan Le can do is how to protect the interests of his side. Seeing that Fan Xiwen was quite straightforward, he said to Fan Xiwen: "Why do we want to join Chuzhai." ”

Faced with this problem, Fan Xiwen had already thought about it, and said without the slightest hesitation: "There are thieves in the deep mountains and old forests, and there are countless jackals, tigers and leopards. What's more, there are still dozens of old and weak people, and staying in the mountains is just a waste of life. Join Chuzhai, and the strength of everyone may be preserved. Fan Xiwen's analysis was the Tao, which made Yan Le couldn't help but be moved, but he didn't believe Fan Xiwen's words too easily, and it was better to be vigilant in troubled times. He decided to test it. So he said to Fan Xiwen: "How can the son convince the little one? ”

"This son swears to the sky, and what he said just now is true. In addition, this son will never harm everyone in Yanjia Village. If you violate this oath, you will be destroyed. Fan Xi pointed to the sky and said with a solemn face. The ancients valued promises and righteousness, and had crazy superstitions about oaths. Therefore, as soon as Fan Xiwen's words were finished, Yan Le agreed to join Chuzhai. However, he said that the tax must be less than 10% of the total income, but Fan Xiwen said that Chuzhai does not collect agricultural taxes. After Yan Le received all kinds of assurances from Fan Xiwen, he relaxed his vigilance a little and was willing to become the first batch of villagers in Chuzhai.

"Zhou Jian, you go and count the materials of the people in Yanjia Village, if there are food seeds that we use, we will exchange them with food." In Chuzhai, food can only temporarily maintain the supply and demand of everyone, and the temptation of new food seeds to Chuzhai is no less than the temptation of ironware, so Fan Xiwen attaches great importance to this matter.

Zhou Jian nodded, and took Wang Si back to the village to prepare food for everyone, and it was already time for lunch.

After everyone had a rich lunch, Fan Xiwen asked everyone to use the firewood they had accumulated before to build a house outside the fence for the new villagers to live in.

Due to the large number of people, even if Chu Zhai mobilized all the people, only three sturdy thatched huts were built before dark, and Fan Xiwen saw that the displaced people were tired, so he asked them to sleep in the few houses that Chu Zhai had built before. In order to ensure their safety, Fan Xiwen took Liu Ke, Fan Fengming and other ten people, plus his two domestic servants, a total of thirteen people to patrol. This move greatly touched the newly joined homeless people, who became the most loyal residents of Chuzhai.

The next day, Fan Xiwen sent Wang Fan to call five young men (Yan Le, Yan Yong, **, Yan Ren, Yan Fan) in Yanjia Village to the fence for morning training. As the great leader of Chu Village, Fan Xiwen is no exception, it is this strict requirement that casts the immortal soul of the Chu army and obeys orders.

The content of the morning training is a modern military training program, which includes push-ups, sit-ups, long-distance running with weights, lurking forward...

Since it was the first time to participate in training, Liu Ke reduced the training volume of the five people surnamed Yan by half, but this also made them unbearable. At first, Yan Le was not convinced by Liu Ke, but after Liu Ke completed twice as many tasks as himself, Yan Le was convinced.

The training lasted about an hour, and breakfast was served after it was done. All the trainees were divided into three rabbits, while the women and children who did not participate in the training drank only a little chicken soup and some wild fruits to barely fill their stomachs. But it's also very satisfying for those women and children. Since the Yellow Turban Uprising, the war has stopped them from producing, and without production there is no food, and they have not eaten so much for a long time.

After breakfast, the women and children were arranged to collect wild vegetables, but before that, Fan Xiwen and others did not know wild vegetables, and they were afraid of picking the wrong ones, so they did not include wild vegetables in the food list. But with the addition of the women and children of Yanjia Village, Fan Xiwen turned his attention back to wild vegetables.

Thirteen laborers joined the great cause of building houses again (Wang Fan and Wang Si inspected, Fan Xiwen, Zhou Jian, and Liu Ke were making wooden javelins), and the houses built this time were not in a hurry like yesterday, but were specifically planned, with fine workmanship and excellent quality.

In Fan Xiwen's impression, the rows of residential houses not only make people feel that they are in a society with rules, but also make him and his brothers feel like they are going home. Modern society is a society of rules, and its representative is urban planning.

Fan Xiwen Eleven has never belonged to this world, in their eyes, they are just passers-by of this era, even if one day they become warlords who hold one side, they are the same. No matter how much Fan Xiwen likes war, he can't compare to his affection for his parents. If he had the opportunity to go home, he would definitely give up everything he had and return to the future.
