Chapter 326: Peace
In the evening, the evening sun shines on the earth, reflecting a farmhouse pastoral.The farmhouse is quiet, only the sound of chickens and dogs is heard, and occasionally farmers leave from the path with their farm tools on their backs.

In the yard, a peasant woman in ordinary clothes was holding bran fodder and feeding the goats in the sheep pen.Looking closer, this peasant woman has a beautiful appearance that does not belong to ordinary women.

The woman was gentle, and picked up the earthen pot beside it, which contained goat milk that her husband had started to milk in the afternoon.

"Ci'er, go and give it to Yan Erniang next door."

A child with a thick head and a thick head ran over, caught the clay pot, and hurried to the next door.

In the room, Zhao Shuang looked at all this and smiled slightly.

"This is your son, what's his name?"

"This child follows Qianqian's father's surname, Wei Ci!"

Xuan Jian was dressed in commoner clothes, like a farmer. He didn't see the shadow of the swordsman who was rampant in the world. He sat in the room, picked up the rice wine on the side, and poured a glass for himself and Zhao Shuang.

This mountain village was newly established by Zhao Shuang's tribe, everything is brand new, and it is very close to the main city of Zhao Shuang, who is the lord.

Through the windows, the magnificent outline of the city wall can be seen in the distance.

Zhao Shuang turned around, sat opposite Xuan Jian, and picked up the wine glass.

"Is the startled salamander teaching Yan'er martial arts these days?"

Xuan Jian nodded and spoke.

"Every night, I teach Yan'er martial arts. That child is progressing very quickly. Although he learned it later, he is on par with Ci'er."

After Zhao Shuang drank a glass of wine, he heard the door open. Wei Xianxian walked in and brought the cooked chicken soup on the table.

"Your Majesty, you have to judge with me. I don't want Ci'er to be involved in grievances, but this guy wants to teach Ci'er martial arts."

Maybe it's been a long time since the ordinary life, Wei Xianxian's body has disappeared from the high-spirited look of the young lady of the Sikong Mansion of the Wei State, replaced by the appearance of a peasant woman who is a little worried about the inside and outside.

"A woman's opinion!" Xuan Jian put down the wine glass in his hand, although his tone sounded like a reprimand, but he didn't say a word, "This troubled world is far from over, the world is dangerous, if you don't learn martial arts, how can you be in the world of tigers and wolves?" Settle down?"

"Okay, okay! You're right." Wei Xianxian set up the meal, with a look of helplessness on his face, "Oh! When we first fell in love, I was called Jia Xianxian, but now it's been a long time, and I'm not the girl with bright eyes and kind eyes. , call her a woman!"

Xuan Jian couldn't bear it, he was very embarrassed, and Zhao Shuang sneered when he saw it.He had never discovered that Xuan Jian had the potential to be henpecked.

Wei Xianxian glared at Xuan Jian, seeing that he didn't say a word.After that, she withdrew to prepare other dishes.

Seeing Wei Xianxian retreating, Xuan Jian's expression changed.

"Your Majesty is here, but do you have something to order?"

Although Xuan Jian was in this village, he knew a thing or two about the recent disputes between the Mohists and the peasants in the land of Qin and Chu.

"The dispute between the peasant family and the Mohist family has been resolved. I returned to the fiefdom from Guanzhong just for the things in the fiefdom."

The Mohists and farmers have reached a new agreement to maintain the status quo.The Mo family entered the Chu land and established a channel to connect with East Vietnam, and the peasant family also entered the Nanyang land and began to integrate with the forces under Lord Changping.

After the banquet in Guan Zhonghuayang Palace, Zhao Shuang returned to his territory.For a feudal monarch, relocating people and establishing order is a rather complicated and energy-consuming task.

Although Zhao Shuang's newly added territory can be connected with his original territory through the water system, the environment is completely different.The location here is very important. In the former Qin-Chu dispute, it was repeatedly contested by Shu, Chu, and Qin. In the end, with the destruction of Shu Tunying by the Qin State, the ownership of this land was completely declared.

However, the dispute did not stop because of this. The barbarians from Bashu and Sichuan entered the mountains and possessed great strength. Although they did not dare to attack the fertile Central Shu Plain area where the Qin army was heavily stationed, the rest of the places were still harassed. OK.

Zhao Shuang's 20 people will enter this area one after another, and the original city has been dilapidated, and it is necessary to build the main city, connect the original urban area, and resettle houses, military buildings and other areas.

In the important grain-producing areas, pastoral areas and traffic arteries in the fiefdom, various facilities need to be built.

"The two newly built villages are close to the Yimin tribe. The villages have not been fully completed yet, and the Yimin people have spied on them."

"Your Majesty wants me to solve them?"

Zhao Shuang shook his head.

"After solving this group of barbarians, there will be another group. The most important thing for us now is to build a fief, and there is no need to lightly start the war." Zhao Shuang raised his head with a somewhat compassionate look, "Let's fight together , the lives of people are devastated. More importantly, wars cost a lot of money."

"..."

Supporting war with war is what Qin has always pursued.It's just that these barbarian tribes are different from the princes of the six kingdoms of Shandong. They don't have much money to beat them, and maybe they will pay.

Zhao Shuang was very cautious about this, and suddenly felt that he loved peace.

"There are more than [-] troops living in a dozen villages near the main city. They will be the main source of new troops in the future. You can choose those with good aptitude and good temperament to teach martial arts."

Xuan Jian smiled, not against this job, and even accepted it with pleasure.Because of this, he can spend more time with his family.

"I have already built a martial arts arena nearby, and I will leave it to you."

"Yes!"

The distance between the village and the main city also represents the level of security.The closer the place is to the main city, the less likely it is to be harassed by the barbarians.For example, the place where Xuan Jian and the startled salamander are located, there is almost no possibility of being invaded by barbarian soldiers.Therefore, this place is regarded as the rear area, where soldiers are trained and fields are cultivated.

However, as the tribes of Yongdi entered one after another, the sphere of influence expanded and the military facilities extended, the conflict with the barbarians in the mountains may also become more and more serious.

Zhao Shuang raised the wine glass in his hand, but didn't drink it down.When he put down the wine glass again, Xuan Jian smiled, and his figure disappeared in front of Zhao Shuang.

There was a strong turbulence of air outside the farmhouse.

Zhao Shuang stood up, walked out of the house, and saw Wei Xianxian looking in that direction with a worried look on his face.Xuan Jian turned around and clapped his hands.

"Let him run away."

"To be able to escape under your hands, the opponent's strength should not be weak. In the middle of Sichuan, there should not be many people who can have this ability."

"Looking at his skills, he looks a bit like someone from Shushan."

Xuan Jian had a deep impression of the brief fight just now, and recognized the opponent's moves.When fighting against a top expert like Xuan Jian, there is no room for hesitation, and he can only go all out.

Zhao Shuang smiled, and the corners of his mouth were curved, as if he was interested in it.

"Yu Yuan's guard?"
