Chapter 102 Returning to the Plain

Yun Zhao sat behind the table, Li Dingguo sat opposite the table, Xu Wu wanted to stand beside Yun Zhao, and Zhang Guofeng stood behind Li Dingguo.

It took half a cup of tea, and no one spoke, but the confrontation in his eyes had been going on for a whole century.

"Ah, Brother Li!"

"Ah, Brother Huang!"

As soon as he said that, Yun Zhao shook his head, stood up and bowed to Li Dingguogong, "I will get to know each other again, Yun Zhao, whose name is Yu."

Li Dingguo also stood up and clasped his fists and said, "Li Dingguo is currently worth 20,000 taels of silver. If the county magistrate wants to feed pigs, then go there without delay."

Yun Zhao laughed when he heard this, pointed at Xu Wu behind him and thought, "This man is worth 40 kilograms of millet, oh, it was originally 50 kilograms, but later the price of millet rose, and there were only 40 kilograms of millet left."

Xu Wu wanted to straighten his chest and said, "Some family is worth at least 100 taels of gold now. Oh, this number is obtained through calculation. The main reason is that I opened up the underground part of Longshou Canal, which gave Dali more than 40,000 acres of irrigated land. After calculating the difference, I came up with this number, which was not something I said nonsense."

Li Dingguo Dynasty wanted to bow to Xu Wu, "Don't respect, lose respect!"

Seeing the scene awkward, Yun Zhao waved his hand and said, "Brother Li has now entered my Lantian family. The naturally divided wasteland is thirty acres, right next to Phoenix Mountain. I wonder when Brother Li will reclaim it?

If you can’t plant food in the spring of next year, your fields will be taken back.”

Li Dingguo was stunned when he heard Yun Zhao say this, then pointed to his nose and said, "Did you say I have thirty acres of land or wasteland?"

Yun Zhao said: "Don't think it's too small, even I only have one hundred acres of land."

"I mean you spent 20,000 taels of silver to buy me to help you plant thirty acres of land?"

Yun Zhao shook his head and said, "It's not for me to farm. These thirty acres of land belong to you. You are farming for yourself. Of course, the tax you should collect must be collected."

Li Dingguo thought for a while and said, "This is very fresh."

Yun Zhao said: "What's new? All talents attracted from outside of Lantian County have such treatment. This is the most basic treatment and the most fundamental treatment.

These lands can prove that you, Li Dingguo, are one of the masters of this land. You can live on these thirty acres of land and die, and you can bury them into this land and fertile fields.

The so-called life and death have land, which is the fundamental meaning of the land."

Li Dingguo turned his eyes and looked at the roof and said quietly: "How many dead people can be buried in thirty acres of land--"

Yun Zhao knocked on the table and said, "What do you think? You can only bury your relatives."

Li Dingguo nodded and said, "It's not bad. Even if a person is alive, he has found a cemetery. It can be regarded as far-sighted.

How many acres of land does he have?"

When Yun Zhao saw Li Dingguo pointing at Zhang Guofeng, he smiled and said, "He only has twenty acres of land, right next to your land."

Xu Wu wanted to interrupt and said, "I personally arranged a good plot. There is a small stream flowing from the foot of Phoenix Mountain to irrigate easily. Your land is on the upper reaches of the stream, and it is a slope on the sunny side. You can plant walnuts, chestnuts, persimmons on the high ground. You can also plant two acres of hemp on the edge of the woodland. There are twenty acres of land for growing grain. Given your ability, I have specially left you a five acres of land for homesteads, and building a large yard is enough."

Li Dingguo turned around and looked at Zhang Guofeng and said, "Good arrangement, what do you think?"

Zhang Guofeng said excitedly: "Very good, our brothers finally have their own land. I wish I could go to open the land now, and I will definitely plant crops in spring next year."

Li Dingguo stood up and bowed to Yun Zhao, "I'll say goodbye now, and my brothers will go to Phoenix Mountain to farm."

Yun Zhao shook his head and said, "It's okay to go back now, but you two are recruiting soldiers. You must go to the military camp to report first before you can go home to farm."

Li Dingguo looked at Yun Zhao with a smile and said, "I don't know where the camp is?"

Xu Wu wanted to pick up two wooden signs from the table and hand them to Li Dingguo and Zhang Guofeng and said, "This is your number in the army. You must remember it. Remember to wear this sign at all times. When you arrive in Fenghuang Mountain, there is no name, only number, and it is very troublesome to forget it."

“7328,7329?”

Li Dingguo looked carefully at the numbers on the sign and found it very strange.

Xu Wu thought, "You are the most recent group of people who have joined the army, so this is your number."

Li Dingguodao: "Can you say that there are only 7,329 people in your Lantian County army?"

Xu Wu wanted to nod and said, "That's right, Lantian County's army is divided into two parts: old and new. You are affiliated with the new army, that is, Lantian County's military headquarters."

"No official position?" Li Dingguo looked up at Yun Zhao who was smiling and silent.

"The official positions in the Lantian County Army were obtained by their own abilities. If you can lead a hundred people, you are the centurion, if you can lead a battalion, you are the commander, if you can lead a army, you are the captain, if you can lead a thousand troops, you are the general!

Brother Dingguo, you won’t even have this confidence, right?”

Li Dingguo laughed and said, "I'm afraid you will regret it and suspect it."

Yun Zhao smiled silently and said, "There is only a system in the army. As long as Brother Dingguo has the means, please do your best."

Li Ding Guodao: "It's good and fair. Well, eating your Yun family's meal for so long, you have spent 20,000 taels of silver. It's time to be driven by you."

Yun Zhao shook his head and said, "The 20,000 taels of silver is not Yun's hard-earned money, but the hard-earned money of the people of Lantian County. The people here use their hard-earned money to hire you Li Dingguo to fight for them and protect their children in the country. I just hope you don't let them down."

Li Dingguodao: "Can you say that I am a employed person from the people here? Didn't you, Yun, buy me out?"

Yun Zhao said: "It's also for yourself, because you are also from Lantian from today."

Li Dingguo laughed and said, "I feel much more comfortable when I say this. I thought you would drive me as a war slave."

Yun Zhao waved his hand to Li Dingguo and said goodbye: "There are no slaves in Lantian County. Now they are fighting for the people of Lantian County, and then for the people of Guanzhong. Next, they are likely to fight for the people of Central Plains until they fight for the entire Ming Dynasty, and fight to the death!"

"Interesting, so interesting..."

Li Dingguo and Zhang Guofeng left Yun Zhao's room with a smile. After getting the baggage, he left Yun's village without hesitation, got on the carriage from Fenghuang Mountain Camp, and headed straight for his new destination.

Yun Zhao watched them leave and sincerely wished Li Dingguo that he could find his place in the fertile soil of Lantian County and grow into a towering tree.

Everyone has their own path to walk and needs to walk. As for whether the road is easy to walk and the path to their dreams, it is difficult to judge.

It just so happened that Yun Zhao knew whether the path many people were taking was correct, so he was willing to give some guidance to people with great regrets.

For example, Li Dingguo, Hong Chengchou, Sun Chuanting, Lu Xiangsheng...

This world is clear to Yun Zhao, but the path he is going to take is dark, and there is no sign of sign, and no one can guide him at all.

Whether to succeed or not, God knows...

Among these people, Lu Xiangsheng is the gentlest person and the best person in character. However, such a person is the most difficult to shake his original heart.

As long as he insisted that it was the Tianxiong Army's great victory, this great contribution would fall on him.

However, this man admitted in the document to the Ministry of War that it was done by Tianxiong Army, but in a secret letter to the emperor, he explained the whole story clearly to the emperor.

The emperor concealed this matter for him, and the emperor was willing to put this credit for the sky on Lu Xiangsheng, so Lu Xiangsheng's official position added one - Prince Taibao!

In Yun Zhao's opinion, this official position is not good - because the person who was awarded this official position will not end up well.

Lu Xiangsheng wrote three letters to resign from this position, but was rejected by the emperor every time. In the end, Lu Xiangsheng finally fell silent.

Yun Zhao knew that if it were not for the purpose of protecting the secret existence of Lantian County in Guihua City, people like Lu Xiangsheng would think that it would be a humiliation to be promoted through this matter.

Lantian County beheaded and displayed in public today. These three people were all dead soldiers. Two of them were sent by Zuo Liangyu. The other one would rather die than speak. Later, he bit off his tongue. Although he came back to life, because this person was illiterate and could not ask anything, he had to execute them together.

Yun Zhao's assassination behavior has made a very bad start. From now on, everyone can use this method, especially against Yun Zhao. Even if Yun Zhao is assassinated, because he is in the forefront of doing things, no one will argue for him.

Therefore, Yun Zhao once again strengthened his defense. From now on, he basically can no longer go out alone.
