a very dark dark guard

Chapter 148 Preparations

The garment department was working overtime to make new uniforms, using the cloth and materials I brought.The digging team also used the agricultural tools I brought.

Agriculture here mainly depends on people and cattle. We have people, but cattle are not easy to get.

In rural villages and towns, there are no extra cattle to sell us.

Mainly we need more, a few heads are not enough.

The people sent by He Chao have already contacted several sellers, and after another two months, they can make up [-] cows.

The rest of the heavier agricultural tools are forged in the Devil's Cult, and blacksmiths and carpenters are ready-made.

The magic stone mine that the Demon Cult has been digging is actually a kind of metal mine, which can extract rare metals that cannot be found elsewhere.

The four elders have made a lot of money from this, and all their property has been confiscated, which can be regarded as returning blood to the devil's religion's treasury.

Although Wu Zhiyuan has been making fake weapons for many years, they have the ability to make real ones.

I let him out and asked him to atone for his crimes and work as a technician on the weapon production line, leading people to make a batch of good knives that can be used as soon as possible.

Lang Jiang, who had been raising pigs in the back kitchen for a while, also walked outside my yard.

When the four elders rebelled, Gu Feng took the opportunity to escape and joined the rebel team, but was killed by the masked man.

Lang Jiang did not participate, and he fled to the Magic Stone Mountain with the people in the kitchen to take refuge.

I didn't inform him, he saw someone running in the kitchen, so he ran with him, and escaped unharmed.

He paced outside the courtyard, refusing to enter the door for a long time.

I had no choice but to send someone out and call him in.

When Lang Jiang entered the door, he knelt down and wanted to kowtow. I didn't let him kowtow, so he just knelt.

He must be asking me for something, if I don't let him express it, he might be too embarrassed to speak up.

He used to be Xuanyuan Wumu's guard, and according to the practice in recent years, Xuanyuan Wumu passed on martial arts to him and Gu Feng.

Xuanyuan Wumu loves money and doesn't love beauties. When he was young, he married a daughter-in-law. Later, the daughter-in-law had a difficult delivery and killed two people. He never married a wife and had children.

An elder who has no children will pass on martial arts to his cronies.

Lang Jiang was personally taught by Xuanyuan Wuzhi, and his martial arts are not bad in the teaching.

He came to me, begging me to give him a chance to start over.

Even if he started as the lowest disciple in the martial arts hall, he hoped that what he learned would be useful.

It is really useless to raise pigs, he is willing to be loyal to the Demon Cult and the leader, he hesitates outside the courtyard because he is afraid that I will not believe him.

Xuanyuan Wumu was poisoned to death by the poisonous smoke released by the masked man. When the horn sounded, there was no one in his courtyard to help him, and the servants around him fled for their lives, leaving him still in the house.

The old lord is dead, and Lang Jiang said that he will be loyal to the lord wholeheartedly.

He was telling the truth, without any hypocrisy or reluctance.

For a person like Wu Zhiyuan, I can keep him alive and let him continue to work for the Demon Cult. Lang Jiang has a better chance.

I recommend him to go to the martial arts hall and be an assistant to Evil Xiao.

The four guardians left with Ximen Wuhen, and the important position was vacated again, and someone was temporarily found to fill it.

Whether it can be done or not, it will take a while to see the situation.

The snowy winter is coming soon, and the winter weather is cold and not suitable for farming.

This year, the land will be cleared up first, and the seeds will be officially planted in the spring tomorrow.

Director Zhang and He Chao led people to re-measure the land belonging to the Demon Cult, count the area, and then count the number of people who can farm the land, and make a reasonable distribution.

The farming and breeding books I bought are read by literate people to illiterate people. These people are selected from the general congregation and have certain farming experience.

Before ordinary congregants were recruited, most of them were children from poor families, and the servants who were bought were the same.

Wang Mu knew quite a few small farming experts who had lost their homes and fields due to natural and man-made disasters, and had no choice but to join the Demon Sect.

They thought that they had no chance of farming in this life, but they never thought they would have such an opportunity.

I sent Wang Mu to mobilize and publicize. I didn't expect that there were quite a lot of people in the church who were willing to farm. Some people even had their eyes on the treasure land of the devil's religion and wanted to build a homestead in the front yard of their own house, but the rules didn't allow it. Their wishes have never been fulfilled.

The land of the Devil's Cult is "fertile", and it is too uncomfortable for them to guard the fertile fields and not be able to grow anything.

Wang Mu counted the people who were motivated to farm, and recorded their respective fields of expertise.

Some people are good at growing vegetables, while others are excellent at growing fruit trees.

There are several people who have grown medicinal herbs, and Wang Mu brought them to see me, because I told him specifically, and I want to talk to them personally if there are such people.

As for the horticultural department, Du Li had already figured it out. Most of them were from farming.

After joining the Devil's Cult, he is now learning to grow flowers and grass.

More and more people are willing to participate in farming, and there is no organization to manage it.

So I set up an agricultural management department in addition to Wutang, Antang, Poison Hall, Qitang, and Shangtang.

For the time being, I will be the minister. Whoever does a good job, I will hand over the power to him.

Cheng Fei and Du Li tried it in the small courtyard where we lived. The Demon Cult's land doesn't pick crops, and grows whatever they grow. The seeds I brought can all survive.

In the preparatory stage of not starting to plant, those who choose to join the farming team, or are included in the farming team because they have no job, I first arranged training courses for them.

In addition, several buildings were vacated in the teaching center and refitted to open schools.

The school is divided into literacy classes for adults and kindergarten classes for children.

No matter men, women, young or old, as long as they have time and are willing to learn, they can learn.

Literacy classes for adults are also divided into day classes and evening classes.

Most of the day shifts are housewives, and most of the night shifts are men.

Teachers don't need to go outside to invite them, He Chao's subordinates are more than enough to teach them.

Which of these aristocratic sons is not three-year-old endorsement, five-year-old poems, each with both civil and military skills.

But their ambition is not here, they can only respond to emergencies, not long-term solutions.

Candidates for the teaching teacher have to be selected from elsewhere.

I entrusted this task to Du Li, and asked him to pick a few young, literate people who have not yet married, preferably with both parents deceased.

Forget about people in nearby towns and counties. Rabbits don't eat grass beside their nests.

Du Li finally didn't have to guard the flowers and plants anymore, and rode out of the headquarters on a fast horse in a good mood.

After being busy for more than a month, I finally had two days to spare. I realized that I hadn't seen Yunzhou for a long time, and wanted to see what his shortcomings were. Since I came to the Devil's Cult, I haven't bought him a toy yet.

We moved to a new residence, and the yard was N times larger than the original one.

Each house has its own small courtyard and space, separated by rows of trees or flower beds.

When we moved to a new residence, Yun Zhou and I also separated into rooms. He took the poisonous man to his small courtyard, and Wan'er was with them, so I felt relieved.

And recently I often go out at dawn, and I don't come back until they sleep.

I haven't seen anyone for about ten days. He has 'students' to take care of, and he didn't run out to find me like he used to.

Thinking about it this way, I felt a little 'the child has finally grown up'.

As soon as I stepped into his small courtyard, I saw a gorgeous figure, 'smelling chickens and dancing' in the courtyard.

At the second glance, this gorgeous dress looks familiar.

Especially the big flower on the head, isn't it the one I stuffed into the closet and put into the 'death row'?
The figure was very tall, obviously not Wan'er, even the entire Demon Cult, couldn't find such a tall woman.

The figure turned around, and I saw his face, and he also saw me, holding the big flower and saluting respectfully.

"Ma'am?" Yun Zhou just got fully dressed and ran out of the house, while Wan'er grabbed a shoe and chased him out.

"And a shoe!"

I nodded at Yunzhou as a greeting, then looked at Wan'er, and glanced at the 'dressed up' poisonous man.

"Who turned out this suit?" I clearly remembered that when I moved, I asked Xiaojiao to dispose of this suit.

In the end, she dealt with Yun Zhou?
"Returning to Madam, it was...my son picked it up. He thought it looked good, so he gave it to Ah Yi." Wan'er definitely concealed something, skipped one part of it, and only talked about the latter.

In fact, it is not difficult to guess, it must be Xiaojiao who sent the clothes here, Wan'er didn't want to confess Xiaojiao, because Xiaojiao didn't follow my instructions to throw away the clothes, it was disobedience.

"One dares to give, and the other dares to wear." There are too many things I want to complain about, so I have to sum it up in one sentence.

Not to mention that this suit is ridiculously gorgeous, it is Wen Yi, that is, the poisonous man. He is 1.8 meters tall, has a masculine appearance, and is the type full of righteousness. Wearing this suit has only a comic effect and no aesthetic feeling.

"And you, why are you backsliding after Ximen left? You are the wife of the leader, my sister-in-law, not his maid." I turned my finger on Wan'er. Dressed up as a maidservant, she couldn't beat her anger.

Everyone likes cosplay, what's wrong?
Wan'er threw down her shoes and still bowed to me, saying that she is not used to the life of the leader's wife, so she is more comfortable as a maid.

Yun Zhou put on his shoes by himself, ran up to me, and showed me the fruits of his efforts.

As soon as he waved his hand, the poisonous man Wen Yi began to recite the text, and he immediately corrected the mistakes.

After Wen Yi finished reciting, Yunzhou stared at me with bright eyes, and just missed the word "praise me" on his forehead.

"You are the best, Wen Yi...very smart, I reward each of you with a toy."

"No, no toys, madam will go out with us to play." Yun Zhou is now speaking more and more fluently, and his condition is slowly improving.

But he was not as fast as Poison, and Wen Yi not only remembered how to practice his martial arts, but also resumed his previous work and rest time.

His 'student' progressed faster than himself, and Yunzhou's reaction to this was happy.

I hope I can take him and his students out to play, he feels bored in the yard every day.

I was thinking of going around the villages and towns around the Devil's Cult, and it would be nice to take them out to relax by the way.

Before it snowed, the road was easy to walk.

It has been two months since the power change in the church, and the urgent matters have basically been dealt with.

There were no suspicious people around the headquarters for the time being, so I asked someone to set up a car and went out with Yunzhou, Wen Yi, Wan'er and Xiaojiao.

Wan'er took care of Yunzhou and Xiaojiao wanted to take care of me, but I felt that Wen Yi needed more care, so I asked her to take care of the 'patient'.

Wen also likes the gorgeous big flower, so Xiaojiao has a good impression of him, and thinks he is a person of taste, with the same aesthetics as hers.

But I, the 'dictator', will not allow them to dress up so ostentatiously.

He ordered someone to make some ordinary guard clothes for Wen Yi.

He is wearing dark blue clothes, which is much more pleasing to my eyes.

Before going out this morning, Xiaojiao took out a new set of clothes and tried to get me to change into them.

I glanced at the new outfit and declined her offer.

She has a special liking for "flowers". It is not enough to have flower patterns on the fabric, but three-dimensional flowers must be sewn on the surface of the clothes.

I'd rather go out in my pajamas than in a floral dress.

In the end, this new suit was worn on her body. She felt that she had overstepped, but it was my order, and she had to obey it.

In my opinion, she is not called overstepping, it is called "eat the consequences of oneself".

But she was happy, nervous, and happy.

Yun Zhou used to be able to wear whatever he wanted, but now he only wears men's clothing of the same color and style as me.

In other words, he insisted on wearing a couple outfit with me.

Wan'er said that their sons used to wear light-colored clothes, even if they wore more mature grays, they were still light gray.

Now wearing black, I feel that people's temperament has changed.

"Oh? What happened? Forget it, don't tell me." I wanted to tease Wan'er, but then thought that if she told the truth, it would be me who was depressed, so I quickly ended the topic.

She just felt that her son's temperament was more and more similar to mine, and I had known for a long time what image I had in her and the guard Jia's mind.

The driver raised his whip, and the carriage left the headquarters of the Demon Cult. He Chao's subordinate, a young man named Ye Tingsheng, rode alone and led the carriage.

The young man had just returned a few days ago, and he had traveled all over the villages and towns around the Demon Cult. He was good at memorizing roads and terrain, and even complicated and unfamiliar routes, as long as he went through them once, he could firmly remember them.

He just turned [-] this year, and he has only been working in the palace for half a year.

He is He Chao's little fan, and the two families are family friends. He followed He Chao's ass as a kid, and wanted to be his little brother, and he called out big brother and big brother very smoothly.

He Chao introduced to me the background of his subordinates. Ye Tingsheng's brother and his mother are not the same mother, he is a concubine, and his father's care and high hopes are all on his son.

The two brothers are more than ten years apart, and the elder brother has already entered the court as an official and established a family.

The relationship between brothers is very ordinary, mainly because his elder brother doesn't want to see him.

He Chao often goes to their house to play, and has a good impression of him, a careless kid.

Ye Tingsheng is not interested in eating, drinking and having fun, he likes knives and guns, his elder brother is a civil servant, he never touches these.

He Chao, on the other hand, paid homage to famous martial arts teachers early on to learn martial arts.

Ye Tingsheng was very envious, and asked his mother to help him, so that his father would allow him to go out to learn art from a teacher.

He left home at the age of eight, and returned from school at the age of 16. After two years of hard work, he finally successfully landed and was admitted as a guard in the palace.

Of course, his success has a lot to do with other family members. Without his father and brother who are officials in the court and the aunt of the princess, he would not be able to get this job.

The first important task he performed after joining the job ended in failure. The whole family disliked him and almost kicked him out.

Ordinarily he should hate me, not only ruined his career, but also made his parents who were not optimistic about him completely disappointed in him.

But he didn't have the emotion of 'hate', since he came to the Demon Cult, he flew around like a happy bird all day long.
