There were so many people who signed up that the recruitment office had to ask for help from the city lord's mansion, and finally hired dozens of people who could write on the temporary basis to complete the registration within three days.

Soon, people found out that the viscount was very picky.

The person who had already signed up was glad that he had seized the opportunity, only to find out that it was not the case at all!

There are more than 20,000 people who have signed up this time, and as long as they feel that they have some possibility, they have come.

"How is it possible, the last time I came to sign up, the people were simply some idlers, a group of old, weak, sick and disabled...... According to the standards of last time, at least 10,000 people must be able to become private soldiers this time......"

"Why? I'm better than any of those sixty or so, so why am I not qualified?"

"Whatever you are arguing about, shut up for me! The lord's recruitment order has already been issued, what did you do earlier, now you are complaining, if you are not satisfied, get out of me!" Liang Qin's sharp eyes swept over the crowd, and the people he saw were like being stared at by a fierce beast, and his heart was weak, and he didn't dare to look at him directly.

Liang Qin, as the commander of Liang Zhen's personal guards, is not only superb in martial arts, but also extremely powerful, and the most important thing is that Liang Qin participated in the war between the Great Han Kingdom and the grassland barbarians more than ten years ago, and was killed from the sea of blood in the corpse mountain.

"There are too few people, and we can't bring all the young and middle-aged people into the private army, if only I had a million people......" Xiao Chuan stood in the distance in civilian clothes, amused by the idea that suddenly came to him, and then laughed at himself for being really greedy.

It took half a month to complete the selection of new recruits, and only 2,100 people in total were qualified.

I have to say that what I started thinking about was too simple, a territory of only 70,000 or 80,000 people for the old, weak, sick and disabled combined, and I wanted to get tens of thousands of troops in a short period of time......

Lord Xiaochuan's excitement passed, only to realize that he actually hated trouble, so he simply threw the recruited private army to Liang Qin and others to worry about.

"I'm seriously short of people now, and I'm even more seriously short of money!" Xiao Chuan took the first step to recruit a private army, spending much more money than expected, but he could only recruit fewer people than expected, and he was slightly disappointed in his heart.

Things have just begun, the city defense of Xiliu City is "leaking everywhere", and it still needs to spend a lot of money to repair, oh no, it should be said that it is completely rebuilt, millions of gold coins, millions of gold coins, this is the rhythm of sitting and eating the sky......

Looking at the handsome man who was eating and drinking on the side, Xiao Chuan was angry. Although I can't even get a fireball, that's because I'm a half-ass. But you're handsome, but you don't know how many years you've lived, and you can't even turn stones into gold spells, and you still have a face to eat......

The richest people in the neighborhood are just counting themselves, and they have no place to go if they want to rob them!

His Majesty the Holy Emperor still wants to let himself wrestle with the Izumo Empire, and carry it hard with those cultivators, a material for cultivating a teleportation array, what kind of coaxing are you a secular emperor to follow?

It's not that Ogawa doesn't understand the importance of this mineral, but the problem is that he doesn't have the strength! Should he let himself lead an army of 2,000 people to deter the Izumo Empire? Or use the ragged subjects in his own territory to disgust the Izumo Empire?

Minerals, minerals if only there were no minerals, see you guys still fighting for it...... Thinking of this, Xiao Chuan's eyes lit up.

Dark clouds obscured the stars in the sky, and the night was terrifyingly dark.

Two faint figures floated out of the City Lord's Mansion silently, but the guards on duty didn't notice anything unusual at all.

But more than seventy miles away, in the blink of an eye, there is no doubt that these two tall and short, sneaky, and thief-eyed people are Xiao Chuan and Handsome.

If you don't take a bite of the fat in front of you, you're so sorry for yourself, not to mention that it has brought you so much trouble, which makes Xiaochuan feel even more justified.

The mine was partially mined, and no one recognized the preciousness of this material at first, and only used it as a beautiful building material. Now it has been controlled by the armies of the two countries, each of which is of course stationed a few miles away from the mines, watching over each other and driving away the coolies sent by the other to mine.

"There is even an early warning formation set up by a cultivator...... "Xiao Chuan used his divine sense to observe carefully for a while, and he felt a little disdainful in his heart.

Such a formation, in the eyes of Xiao Chuan's current formation attainments, is equivalent to locking the door with a lock, but leaving the key to open the door on it, it is easy to get in.

However, Xiao Chuan, who has always been cautious, rushed in without recklessness, and used his divine sense to carefully examine it for a moment.

Just when Yingjun was already a little impatient, Xiaochuan reached out and gently pressed Yingjun's shoulder: "I've made a fortune, there are good things!"

"There's gold!" the handsome eyes lit up instantly.

Xiao Chuan choked on Yingjun's words, but still patiently told Yingjun: "It's a copper mine! Just below the Void Stone, there is a large copper mine......

Xiao Chuan didn't rush to make a move, but sneaked back to the City Lord's Mansion with a handsome god unnoticed.

The next night, the two sneaky figures left the City Lord's Mansion again, concealed their whereabouts all the way, and went straight to the mine.

Xiao Chuan quietly passed through the early warning formation with handsomeness, entered the depths of the mine, and quickly set up a soundproof formation and a concealment formation.

Then the two quietly drilled into the depths of the mine, and after a while, there was a continuous sound of knocking and collision in the depths of the mine, but it was covered by the soundproof formation set outside, and no sound reached the outside.

The people of the City Lord's Mansion have not seen any trace of the City Lord these days, because the City Lord has been in retreat.

The world of cultivators is still very mysterious to ordinary people, and the city lord left a warrant that no one should be disturbed during his retreat, and all affairs were managed by Liang Qin and Liang An.

A city that is too poor to be poor can have how many affairs to deal with.

Liang Qin is okay, the private army in the territory has just been established, and they are all a group of fierce and ruthless people, and they are busy just rectifying military discipline.

On the contrary, Liang An, who was also "entrusted with important tasks", seemed to have nothing to do, but this trust still made Liang An grateful.

Therefore, Liang An did his best to deal with that limited matter, and strive to be perfect. Moreover, in view of the existing situation in the territory, he pondered for a long time, boiled a few hairs of hair, and drafted more than a dozen suggestions for improvement in a very targeted manner, ready to submit them to Xiaochuan for review.

The inside of the mine, which is calm on the outside, is a completely crazy scene. The two figures moved quickly, and the movements in their hands were so fast that people couldn't see clearly, and the space of the mine cave had expanded for dozens of miles in just a few days.

After the hoes and pickaxes used for mining had broken for an unknown number of times, Ogawa finally found that his hands were better than these tools.

A single punch can shake a large piece of ore, shaking the hard rock loose, or even falling off, without causing a collapse.

A few days later, Xiao Chuan began to use this technique proficiently, with the same great strength, and the power increased several times.

"No wonder you have to be paid for your work, so that you can be motivated! If you give me so many benefits every time, what else will you not learn......" Ogawa felt that he had realized the method of rapid cultivation.

The old man of the world in the book has become numb. In the past few days, watching Xiaochuan come and go thousands of times, he has continuously transported some ore in with a storage ring, which is enough to pile up into a hill with a radius of dozens of miles.

"Handsome, don't be lazy! After this vote, you will follow me all day long to eat and drink spicy ......" A slightly hoarse voice echoed in the empty mine.
