Lord: Start with a copy of Water Margin

Chapter 50 Before Land Expansion

Zhao Zhen saw that his luck had not decreased much, so he let the matter go.

Zhao Zhen first went to the front yard to show his face and asked Zhao Yuanli: "Are all the teachers in the village here?"

Zhao Yuanli replied: "The Ruan brothers went out fishing and did not return. They left time and should come back today. Master Guanghui rode to Yuncheng County to reserve a Buddha statue. He should come back tomorrow."

Zhao Zhen nodded and ordered: "After the Ruan brothers came back, I asked them to rest on the farm first and not to go out to fish in a hurry."

Zhao Yuanli nodded in agreement.

While they were talking, the newly hired female envoy brought tea. Zhao Yuanli took it, added more tea, and was about to leave.

Zhao Zhen suddenly said: "Has anyone come to vote in the past few days?"

Zhao Yuanli said: "Back to the owner of the village, no one came to vote."

Zhao Zhen nodded and waved Zhao Yuanli to leave. He was wondering: Why doesn't this red-haired ghost Liu Tang come?

Zhao Zhen frowned. Although he wanted to explore it, he was unable to start.

Seeing that there was nothing going on, Zhao Zhen was concerned about the construction of the Pagoda Temple, so he called Jiao Ting and rode together to Baishi Gang.

Along the way, the two of them walked side by side. Zhao Zhen asked: "Brother Jiao Ting, how do you feel about the village now? Are there any shortcomings? If so, I hope you can speak out."

Jiao Ting said: "Master of the village, Sajia is a straight man. He won't hide anything, and he will definitely not flatter the master of the village unintentionally. There is no shortage of wine and meat in the village, but the village is a bit small and not lively enough."

Zhao Zhen said: "What my brother is saying is that not only is the population small now, but the territory is also not large. I am thinking of dispelling the fog and expanding the territory. I am afraid that I will need all my brothers to contribute their efforts."

Jiao Ting patted his chest and said, "This matter is irresistible. The owner of the village just needs to rest assured."

Zhao Zhen asked: "How is Zhuang Ding's training now?"

Jiao Ting said: "Since the village owner presided over the inauguration ceremony, now not only the village Ding has trained hard, but I heard from the village Ding privately that even the villagers have become much more diligent. Now the two stewards Zhu Sha Zhao Ji can also take office."

Zhao Zhen said: "This is good news, what about the troops in Yiduxiang?"

Jiao Ting said: "It's quite tame. Now everyone has settled down. I haven't seen the team led by the Bao Xu brothers in the past few days. I only said that the team led by the Ruan brothers took the initiative to take over the boating business a few days ago. Most of the people went fishing with the team.”

Zhao Zhen was very happy after hearing this. While talking, they arrived at Baishi Gang, and the two climbed up the widened mountain road.

But Jianshan Temple's main halls, side halls, Dharma halls, sutra collection towers, and bell and drum towers have all begun to take shape.

Zhao Zhen and Jiao Ting looked around, found Tao Zongwang, and walked over quickly.

After seeing the ceremony, Zhao Zhen said: "Brother, it has only been a few days, but now it has begun to take shape."

Tao Zongwang said: "I would also like to thank my brother for appointing more than twenty new people. They are all used to repairing. There are also four people who have taken up their jobs as carpenters, which makes up for my shortcomings of not being good at small woodworking.

Speaking of which, I can't handle beams, columns, beams, brackets, rafters, balusters, flat seats, eaves, and lifts. Repairing tables, chairs, and benches is no problem, but I'm not good at decoration.

Now let these four people be responsible for all the decorations such as hanging fish, grass, panel doors, soft doors, broken windows, ceilings, caissons, hook rails, wall hangings, furniture, etc. After the completion, it will be much more beautiful. "

Zhao Zhen was also a little surprised. He hurriedly screened them that day and didn't expect that there were many talents inside.

Tao Zongwang said: "I have inquired about it. This Duxiang army was put together temporarily. One is the Zazuodu sergeant who is now following me to build the temple. The other is from Ferrydu with the Ruan family brother. As for the old and weak, they are indeed Among the temporarily recruited bankers, only the team led by Brother Bao Xu was eliminated from the Forbidden Army."

Jiao Ting continued: "I also inquired about the guards, team leaders, deputy team leaders, and flags on the left and right. They are all unsuccessful in the Forbidden Army, and their military force is not outstanding. That's why they recruited this officer from the military capital. Position.

He originally wanted to transport arms, money and food and accumulate some merit, but he didn't expect that he was just a loser. The march was completely unorganized. He could go wherever he wanted, as long as he wanted to.

Because of this delay, everyone was unwilling to escape with him, but this man said that they were just transporting ordnance on this trip, and they were not in a hurry. They just wanted to do one thing well so that they could make up for the crime. If they did, Well, there are rewards.

It turned out that a commander in the army heard that the officials were curious about the stone. He knew where it was, so he asked the commander to lead people to seize it. However, the news could not be leaked. Then he thought of pretending to be a retired sergeant and snatching it. It was just a robbery. At that time, there was an accident, and the foreigner died on the spot.

Everyone did not dare to go back to recover their lives, so they had to run along the river, and then they met the Ruan brothers. "

Zhao Zhen said: "Where is this stone placed now?"

Tao Zongwang and Jiao Ting looked at each other and laughed, and said: "I asked Brother Zhusha. When the ordnance was moved, they thought it was ballast stone and did not move it. Now it has been moved to the warehouse. The village owner wants to surround the white stone hill, which can create a beautiful scenery." "

Zhao Zhen laughed after hearing this. He didn't expect this story.

Zhao Zhen asked again: "Brothers, have you gotten used to wearing armor?"

They both shook their heads, and Jiao Ting said: "It's very inconvenient."

Zhao Zhen said sternly: "Two brothers, please be careful. We may have to fight on the battlefield in the future. Although it is a bit bulkier, it is fully protected."

The two nodded in agreement and chatted some more. Seeing that the temple was being built quickly, Zhao Zhen felt relieved and left.

After getting off Baishi Gang, I first went to see the Baishi Valley grape seedlings. Although the descendants of these spiritual plants are ordinary species, they are of superior quality. Now they are planted in the spiritual fields. The grapevines are growing very fast and are lush and green on the shelves.

At this time, Tang Ting was leading several farmers to cultivate the soil. When he saw Zhao Zhen and the others, he hurried over to greet them.

After a few words, Zhao Zhen and Jiao Ting went back to the farm.

After entering the front hall, the two sat down. Zhao Yuanli served them cold tea, and the two drank it in big gulps to relieve the heat.

Zhao Zhen said to Zhao Yuanli: "Count how many people can take office, and hold a ceremony tomorrow. It will be held every two months in the future. If you think there is hope to take office as a hero, those with insufficient attributes don't have to worry, just strengthen your training and take office in the future. If there is no hope to take office as a hero, when the level reaches level 9, let them come to the farm to report, and it will be convenient to arrange for the job in the future."

Zhao Yuanli agreed and went to make arrangements.

Seeing that there was nothing to do, Zhao Zhen took Jiao Ting to the East Courtyard to compete in swordsmanship.

Both of them used the land and water swordsmanship. Zhao Zhen was weak, but Jiao Ting was familiar with the moves he attacked, so he could barely maintain it for a while.

After fighting for a while, they stopped panting. Jiao Ting kept sending him moves. Zhao Zhen felt that his swordsmanship had improved and was happy.

That night, the three Ruan brothers returned to the village, and Zhao Zhen prepared a banquet early. Zhao Zhen sat at the head, and Jiao Ting, Han Bolong, Bao Xu, Ruan Xiaoer, Ruan Xiaowu, Ruan Xiaoqi, and Tao Zongwang sat down in turn.

At the banquet, Zhao Zhen brought up the matter of expanding the territory again, saying that after thinking about it, he still wanted to expand the territory to the north, and explained the reason in detail to all the heroes.

I have been unwell in recent days, and the updates are unstable. Please forgive me.

I have received a notice from the editor that it will be on the shelves next Tuesday. By then, thank you all for your support.
