"Lack of people, lack of people, my territory is seriously short of people, and there is a shortage of talents, especially those who reassure me......" Xiaochuan has long known the defects of his territory, and now it is especially obvious.

It will take about half a year for Hosoyanagi City to be completely completed. Of course, Ogawa is going to rebuild all the houses and rebuild all the roads.

In order to attract a large number of people to enrich Hosoyanagi Castle, it is necessary to have housing and land.

How can you survive without land?

However, the land under the rule of Hosoliucheng is very barren, and now the grain in Hosoliucheng is still purchased by Xiaochuan from other counties in Laizhou Prefecture at a large cost of gold coins. You can't always rely on the lord to pay for the people, right?

Ever since Xiao Chuan discovered the copper mine under the Void Stone Mine with his divine sense, he excitedly used his divine sense to repeatedly inspect every inch of his territory.

Yes, it is a truly barren land, and there are no more minerals, except for stones to walk on!

"If only I knew how to do sorcery, turn all these lands into fertile fields!" Of course, this can only be Ogawa's pipe dream. He didn't know any spells so far, so he could only think about it.

"It's really a pig's brain, why don't you build a spirit gathering array?" Xiao Chuan's brain finally opened up.

Building a Gathering Spirit Array can attract the aura of heaven and earth, even if the land is more barren, the harvest can't be wrong.

The existing Spirit Gathering Arrays used for cultivation in the Cultivation Realm are all driven by spirit stones, and the cost is not small.

Does Xiao Chuan need it? Xiao Chuan looked proud, the Spirit Gathering Array that was activated by the use of spirit stones was too low-level, and completely using the power of heaven and earth was the king!

"Build dozens of his spirit gathering arrays, and the crops will not grow by then...... It's really a pig, so what kind of crops do I plant, what kind of medicinal herbs do I grow, what is worth planting, right!" Xiao Chuan's heart was hot at this time, and he couldn't wait to realize his idea immediately.

Gold coins, lots of gold coins, rushed at themselves like a tidal wave......

"Drown me......"

Xiao Chuan was very happy in the room, and Xiu'er and Ling'er were already surprised.

"The little master must have thought of something happy again......

The two of them already know about Xiao Chuan's temperament, so they are getting closer and closer to Xiao Chuan.

It's just that some of Xiaochuan's practices, the two girls still can't understand, such as bringing Zhifen and Liang Yan, who are annoying to everyone, not only the people who came with them are a little slanderous, even Xiu'er and Ling'er are a little disgusted.

Zhifen is the lowest subordinate in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and he has not even been given a surname, which is Zhifen's biggest pain. People are already half-old, but their hearts are becoming more and more restless, and they are determined to climb up, but they have no ability, so they can only continue to stir up trouble and spread gossip to elevate themselves.

Maybe it's too annoying, no matter where you put her, there will be a lot of right and wrong.

Zhifen's uncle, who was working in Xiangfu, commented on her behind her back, and once said: "This mother-in-law has to be a top child when she eats!"

Now everyone has something to do, and what is even more infuriating is that everyone has a position, Zhifen is holding back and going crazy, where there is something to do, mixing everywhere, hating everyone's teeth.

So-and-so took the opportunity to build a castle to embezzle, so-and-so was dissatisfied with you behind his back, and so-and-so had close contacts with the Izumo Empire, and it was not clear......

Xiao Chuan will receive a similar "secret report" from Zhifen in three days, and even Xiao Chuan heard some rumors, saying that the city lord is fooling around with the two foxes every night, otherwise he has no ability at all, so why bring them ......

Xiao Chuan knew that these gossips must have come from Zhifen's mouth, and even heard her say with his own ears once: "People like us who do their duty and do things in a down-to-earth manner might as well be as good as the little girl of the other country snorting twice......"

This rat poop can spoil a pot of soup and is of great use. But now there are too many things to do in Xiliucheng, and there is no time to arrange this mother-in-law, don't let her mess up Xiliucheng......!

Liang Qin returned, bringing orders from the military headquarters and a reply letter written by Liang Zhen and Liang Cheng.

The order of the military headquarters was thrown aside by Xiao Chuan, and he picked up Liang Zhen's reply letter in his hand.

This is a thick letter, it must have written thousands of words, is it to tell yourself to be loyal and patriotic, or to instruct yourself how to show your strength in Xiliu City, or to tell the parting feelings during this period of time?

Some couldn't wait to check the fire paint on the seal, then opened the envelope, unfolded a large piece of paper covering the table, and a few big words came into view, "Well, I know!"

Just these few words, and nothing else, made Xiaochuan feel very depressed.

"Old man, you also praise me for a few words, and if you say a word or two of concern, that's what you mean. 'Well, got it!' and that's it......"

But when I think about it, it's no wonder that the letter I wrote home wasn't very good.

"Okay, old man, this time it's even with you!" Thinking about it like this, Xiao Chuan felt much better.

In comparison, Liang Cheng's letter was decent, saying some words of comfort to his parents, some words of encouragement, and finally some words of attention to his body and safety......

The order of the military headquarters has some meaning, the four infantry regiments currently stationed in the mine of Hosoyanagi City will stay in place for the time being, and after the matter of the mine is completely resolved, Xiaochuan can select two infantry regiments from them to assist in the defense of Hosoyanagi City, and the military expenses will be allocated by Hosoyanagi Castle, and after all the troops are evacuated in the future, Hosoyanagi Castle can retain the establishment of these two corps.

In addition, Hosoliucheng could recruit troops from the entire territory of Laizhou Prefecture and form four more corps to deal with border matters. Similarly, all the expenses for the formation of the legion were allocated by Hosoyanagi Castle.

"What does Your Majesty the Holy Emperor mean by this, what kind of power is this!" Xiao Chuan couldn't help but think about it seriously.

It is obvious that he is delegating power to Xiao Chuan, and the fief is given to Xiao Chuan, although it is very barren, but Xiao Chuan has also obtained huge benefits, and the Void Stone Mine has an income of more than 100 million gold coins, which has to make many people blush.

But His Majesty the Holy Emperor is now obviously telling Xiao Chuan, I allow you to have six corps.

If it is an infantry regiment, it is 30,000 people, and Xiaochuan is just a viscount, a private army of 30,000 people, and a lot of wealth in his hands......

Is this trust? Unreserved trust! Anyone who is replaced will be deeply moved, and they will definitely have the heart to fight to the death.

Of course, Xiao Chuan was also moved, and immediately understood that His Majesty the Holy Emperor might have a trick. He would never give a small lord so much power just because he earned 100 million gold coins.

"Where will my knife go......" Xiao Chuan looked in the direction of the Dahan Kingdom Divine Capital and was silent.

At the same time, His Majesty the Holy Emperor of the Great Han Kingdom also happened to be looking at the southernmost part of the Great Han Kingdom, with a faint smile on his face.

"The little guy in the Liang Mansion is quite a trick, I hope you don't disappoint me! Everyone's attention has been successfully attracted by you, you have to sing the following scene according to my arrangement......"
