attack stream of life
Chapter 147
Ji Jing led the first battle to become famous. The five coalition forces fell on the threshold before even stepping on the door. One-fifth escaped, one-third died, and one-third was injured. The mine sold itself.
Qingchuan sent letters to several lords, asking them to compensate for the economic losses, personnel losses, spiritual losses, etc. caused by the war to the quiet leader, a total of [-] gold coins, in addition to the ransom fees of various generals and leaders.
details as follows:
The general will receive [-] gold coins per person, and the food and accommodation expenses will be increased on a daily basis.
Three thousand gold coins for each major general, which also counts as food and accommodation expenses.
One thousand gold coins per knight, the treatment is as above.
There are fewer soldiers, one gold coin per person, is it a special discount?
Oh, by the way, there are also medical expenses, including treatment expenses and drug expenses, please pay them all at once, otherwise you will have to pick them up at your door, and you will have to add a travel fee at that time.
The other lord was naturally furious, asking for money or not, terribly - not at all!If you have the ability, you kill them and see what reputation they will have outside.
They also accused Qingchuan of not following the rules, and Ye Luzi, after taking the battle invitation, unexpectedly chose to sneak attack so despicably, it is really shameless.They want to severely condemn this kind of impolite behavior and publicize the shameless behavior of the Lord of Silence!
Oh, Qing Chuan calmly threw the condemnation letter aside: Qing Qing is so innocent and weak, how can you blame Qing Qing for sending it to your door?
The propaganda team, which has learned how to manipulate the tendency of public opinion, said that they could not bear the insult of the lord, and the death of the lord, they wanted revenge!
So many young men in the territory were confiscated to join the army, but the battle was over and the people hadn't returned. Even if they died, there should be a result, but there was nothing.Among the civilians in these five territories, people were panicked and the atmosphere was oppressive.
Although it looks calm on the surface, these people will be alarmed by the slightest disturbance.
The publicity team passed, and those who were originally locals went to find old friends.
"What? Don't you guys know?" He pretended not to mention this incident, "I know it all. Didn't I run a business on both sides? So I know something."
When these people heard this, they all gathered around him and asked him about his situation.
He said, in fact, the husbands and sons of many of them are still alive and well, working in Tranquility, the pain is bitter, and there is no danger to their lives.
The lord of the Silent Land said that these militiamen were recruited by force, not voluntarily, and they were also victims of their own lord's selfishness and greed, so they survived well when they were caught.
On the contrary, they had some internal contradictions. The private soldiers of the noble family looked down on the militia. Because of some contradictions, they killed many people, much more than those led by Ji Jing.
Those private soldiers are powerful and well equipped, the militia is no match, and those corpses have dyed the ground red.
Now the leader of Silence said, let the lord here spend a little money to redeem the soldiers, one gold coin per person.
But the lord here, even if he spends a lot of money on his mistress, he will not redeem the soldier.The treasury is full, but they still don't want to give out a penny. Now they are thinking about asking the people to pay the money and increasing taxes.
Some people also asked the lord, saying that the people could no longer eat bread, and they would not be able to eat beans if the tax was increased. The lord said: "The people can't afford bread, so let them eat cakes."
Therefore, it seems that not only their son and husband will not be able to come back for a while, but even some food from the family will be taken away.
All kinds of rumors, [-]% true and [-]% false, circulated in their territory. The civilians rioted several times, demanding that the lord return their son and husband.
"Nonsense!" the count threw the parchment on the ground angrily, and kicked over the bright magic lamp, "I never said such a thing! How can such a precious food as cake be eaten?"
The small officials in the earldom suddenly lost their temper: Isn't it more hateful to say such words?
Now those families who lack a man are secretly gnashing their teeth and cursing, and some simply defected to the quiet collar. It is said that the whole family defected, and the man in the family would be free after three years of work. It is very cost-effective to think about it. In this way, many people So the whole family went for refuge.
It is well known that the earl kept lovers, gambled, spent a lot of money, and was not very kind to the people.So others said that the Earl would rather spend money on his mistress's pets than redeem soldiers, which is completely irrefutable...
The hatred value was firmly attracted by the earl, and everyone had completely forgotten that it was the lord of the Silent Land who captured those soldiers.
"My lord, we can ignore those untouchables, but there are a few of them..." a small official said hesitantly.
Not to mention anything else, the general they led out was the Earl's brother-in-law. He originally wanted to make a fortune, but he didn't expect to get involved in it. Now the Countess is making trouble every day, almost tearing down the Earl's mansion. .
The reasons are all ready-made, "You need thousands of gold coins to buy a hat for that little bitch, and you can't redeem my brother for ten thousand? My brother is not as important as a hat? He went for you !"
The truth is such a truth, but once the hole is opened, it is not a matter of one person.After redeeming my brother-in-law and other subordinates, I counted [-] to [-] gold coins.This is no small number.
The earldom is considered prosperous, but the annual tax is only 10,000+ gold coins. The earl has a lot of expenses, and the small treasury is half empty. It is really reluctant to take out [-] to [-], and it hurts.
Anyway, the lord of the Silent Land will never kill people, and those untouchables are living well, at most, don't they just do some work?
How about a little work, young lad?
The stingy Earl also guarded his wallet firmly today.
"Why are you in a daze? Work!" The guards yelled, and the earl's brother-in-law and another earl's youngest son had no choice but to hold on to the handle of the car slowly, grinning and sending a cart of coal to the other side.
At the beginning, he still cursed every day, but now he has no strength to curse.
The rule here is that those who don't work don't get food, and those who don't work don't get food. The earl's brother-in-law can't work, his stomach is empty, and he really doesn't have the strength to make trouble.
The most glorious horn of labor sounded among the captives.
The other soldiers were much more cooperative than the reluctant earl's brother-in-law.The guards didn't beat them, but there was a rule that their three meals and accommodation were directly linked to their daily labor.
If you do well, you will sleep in your house with broth and white bread; if you are not good, you will sleep in a tent with bean dregs cakes.With such a radish hanging in front of your eyes, why don't the donkeys try their best to pull the mill?
These captives themselves are enjoying themselves: it's good, at least they can drink some broth after working hard, which is better than when they were soldiers in their hometown.
They worked here during the day, and after dark, there was a bonfire meeting in the prison camp.
These are reserved items, and the mercenaries and robbers who have been here before are very familiar with this model.Many of the captives in that batch have reformed themselves, and they even joined the guards now.Why do thoughts change so much?Thanks to the speeches from the Propaganda Department at the daily bonfire.
The lord really seized every opportunity to increase his population.
A few lords over there refused to redeem the people, feeling that the leader of Silence would not dare to do anything, and they were complacent.Just wait, when the population is lost in large numbers, you will know how to write the word regret.
On the first day, the topic of the speech was: Why are the descendants of nobles nobles, and the descendants of peasants peasants, can hard work change our class?Princes and generals, would you rather be kind?
On the second day, the topic of the speech was: why some people can eat, drink and have fun without doing anything, and some people work hard all their lives and finally starve to death. Whose fault is it?At this time, it is necessary to vigorously promote the various welfare policies of the Quiet Leader.
On the third day, the topic of the speech was: who is fooling us, who is preventing us from seeing the world clearly, who is making our children sit in a barren position from birth?It mainly talks about the importance of learning.
The Propaganda Department is Qingchuan's mouth and tongue, and he is conveying a message to the captives through these kind staff members - you are welcome to settle in the Tranquility Territory.
Farmers suffer, not because of stupidity and laziness, but because a lot of wealth that belongs to you is overexploited.Taxation is to protect one's own interests, but many people pay enough taxes, and their interests are still damaged in the end.
In Tranquility, we promulgate laws, in black and white, to protect the interests of the bottom people from being damaged.As long as you are not lazy and sinful, you will not be able to live as miserable as you are now.
In addition, in our silent land, class can be changed, you are a peasant, but your children can be officers or consuls.Why?Because your child has the same opportunity as the noble child, and that is to learn.
This is the fairest opportunity, regardless of lineage or wealth, only the child's own qualifications and hard work.With talent and hard work, you can soar into the sky.
Moreover, the first six years of basic education are free!
These include Chinese, mathematics, basic magic and basic martial arts, biology, art and so on.
The level of these teachers is equivalent to the professional teachers invited by the baron's family.It doesn't cost money, and it takes a full six years to attend the lessons of the baron's young master and miss. After coming out, there will be more job opportunities and better treatment.
'Want to move forward?I give you a chance! '
These days, the captives are getting acquainted with the administrators, and the administrators don't beat people, they just deduct points and deduct points, and the thick-skinned ones will also go to the administrators to inquire about the situation of the quiet leader.
To be honest, what these propaganda teams say is very good, but these people are middle-aged and old-fashioned, and it is not so easy to believe such propaganda.Didn't their lords say before that Silent Leader is weak and easy to fight, and everyone gets two gold coins after the fight?
The results of it?Aren't these idiots digging coal here?
For those who are superior, what is the difference between farting and farting?Just listen to it.
But one thing is true, the food here is really good, and the prisoners were not beaten or scolded.
They are around six o'clock in the morning - this concept of time is still said by the locals, who say that the big bronze bell rings at six o'clock.There is also a big mechanical clock above the office. Some magicians and warriors have high-end watches, which can also tell the time.
The prisoners got up at six o'clock and went to wash their faces (although they don't beat people here, there are a lot of things to do, and they have to wash their faces, clean their teeth with willow branches, so they can go to the bathroom conveniently), and then it's breakfast time, which usually only lasts 15 minutes.
I did a good job yesterday. It is a large fermented bread steamed from whole wheat flour. It is soft and sweet, and it comes with a bowl of vegetable soup.I didn't do well yesterday, so they gave me a cake made of bean dregs, which is not tasty, but it can satisfy my hunger.
This is very good, it can satisfy the hunger, how many people were still on the verge of half full before.
The administrator's food is even better. They have seen it before. It is a kind of white sandwich bread. It is bread made of flour ground from wheat cores that the old men eat. There is actually a piece of fat pork and two pieces of vegetables sandwiched inside. leaf.
You son of a bitch, even an administrator here can eat flour and meat?
The captives don't want to recall the last time they ate meat, it's too sad.
Breakfast is like this, and Chinese food and dinner are even better. The aunt who cooks will cook soup with meat and bones.When you are lucky, you can find a little bit of minced meat in the vegetable soup, that is really the happiest time of the day.
There is one thing to say here - there are three meals a day here?
There are two meals a day outside!Of course, the gentlemen also have afternoon tea and supper at night, but ordinary people basically have two meals a day.What kind of place is the Tranquility Territory? How could even the captives be given three meals?
It’s so good, the feeling of going to bed with a full stomach... If the priest in his hometown knows this, he will definitely say that he was bewitched by the devil. Only the devil eats three meals, and the gods don’t eat it. The less he eats The closer to holiness.
Oh, then I would still like to get closer to the devil - the captive who rubbed his belly thought so.
Not far away came a young non-commissioned officer, tall and fair, wearing a decent uniform, leather boots, and a long sword that looked very good at first glance.
The captives could still laugh and laugh in front of the administrators on weekdays, but when they saw the non-commissioned officers who were obviously superior people, they became quiet for a while. The civilians always had a natural fear of this kind of management who seemed to be of noble origin.
"Look, it's not bad, my son," said a caretaker of an old orange peel.
"Hush——" A prisoner who had a good relationship with him recently turned pale with fright, and persuaded him in a low voice, "Even if you don't like it, don't swear at others, it's over if you hear it!"
The administrator was very happy to show off his son, but when he heard this, he was dumbfounded, "What? Cursing? When will I... No, he is really my son."
The administrator who realized what was going on couldn't laugh or cry, don't they look alike?Eye color is exactly the same.
As a result, several prisoners around him shook their heads calmly.
"Don't brag, look at you, you look like you are looking for food in the field, look at your hands, they are thick and black. If you look at others, you can see that you are a nobleman. You look like that, but you have never suffered Yes, the skin is as white as powder."
"That is, you are so short, how can you give birth to such a tall son?"
Just as he was talking, the white-skinned non-commissioned officer came over, and a large group of people fell silent for fear that the other party would hear something and anger them.
"Father, I'm here to pick you up."
As soon as these words came out, a partridge was startled.
father?Father?
"I'm not a child, and I don't know how to go back by myself?" The administrator was a little unhappy, and his brown face was wrinkled into an old chrysanthemum. "Why are you here today? I'm done with work? If you have time, go find a girl." Take a walk and watch the latest dramas, I already have you at your age."
The words are full of the old father's rhythm of urging marriage.
The young non-commissioned officer was helpless, "Father, today is your birthday, don't forget to go back early, mother has specially ordered a big birthday cake."
Speaking of his wife, his face softened a little, "Okay, you go back quickly, I will go home after get off work in a while. Really, I came here specially for this."
The two talked for a while, and the young non-commissioned officer left.When the administrator turned his head, he saw a group of captives whose souls had gone out of their bodies.
"He is, really, your son?"
"What are you talking about? Of course he is my son!"
The face of the administrator who disliked his son so much just now changed, full of pride, "I'm not bragging, there were more than 60 children in a batch, only three children were selected to continue to go to school, and my son was one of them."
"His teachers are good to him, and the lord provides milk for each child. The wife at home loves the child and saves money to buy meat for him. A soldier must not lose nutrition. Who knows that this kid has grown up in those days , is taller than me now."
"Actually, I used to be said to be very talented. It's a pity that my family has no money, and life is delayed, otherwise I would be a soldier. My son is just like me, with talent. Our lord is willing to train him, and now he is also an official soldier."
"To tell you the truth, if you have children at home, you should hurry to our quiet leader, you are just like this, don't delay the children. Our lord has said that the younger the child, the easier it is to discover the talent. When it grows up, it takes shape.”
A prisoner with three children in his family was moved. He carefully asked the manager, "Silence leader, is it true that children go to school for free?" This sounds like a dream, could it be true?The young man who came to promote with a smile didn't lie to them?
The administrator suddenly became unhappy, "Our lord's rule is that all children under the age of 13 go to school, free of charge, and each child has a glass of milk a day. Our lord said that a glass of milk a day will make the children grow stronger and less likely to get sick!"
"The adults in our Propaganda Department have been talking for so many days, is it all for nothing? You said, children go to school for free, land tax is only two tenths, and occasionally catch a fish or a rabbit, no tax. If the boss doesn't pay you when you're working wages, there are ruffians beating people, find the adults in the office, they will protect us."
"My lord, um, what's your birthday?" Another prisoner asked.
"You don't even know your birthday? Your birthday is the day you were born. It is a day worth commemorating and celebrating." The administrator completely forgot that he had asked this question before, and now this birthday is still the day he specially chose to come to Ji Jing to collect it. .
In fact, commoners know that nobles celebrate the day of their birth every year.
The nobles should of course celebrate, they came into the world to enjoy themselves.People like them don't have a surname, and they don't have the concept of birthday, and their parents don't remember it deliberately.Because they were born to suffer, so what is there to commemorate the birth?
It is also here that I feel that being alive is a happy thing, and I will remember, celebrate my birthday, and celebrate my birth.
Would you still go out of your way to celebrate the day you were born?Isn't that something that the nobles can only do when they are full?
The captives suddenly believed that if the Silence Commander could raise a son who looked like a low-level person, and make a person celebrate his birth day so happily, then how could they doubt that this was not a man full of blood? A place of opportunity and possibility?
"My lord, take a look, how do you look at me? Can you join the Silence Leader?"
"That's right, me too. Look at this body, some people said I'm talented before. Can I join the Silence Leader?"
There was a large-scale wave of surrender among the captives. Later, after inquiring that it was the son of a manager who appeared, these people were convinced that the sky had really fallen.
Drop the pie, it's filled with meat!Can you wait?Can't wait!
Qing Chuan couldn't laugh or cry when he knew about it, and told the Propaganda Department that in future publicity, let's show a few examples to enhance persuasiveness.This benefit is too good, but it is actually troublesome, too good to believe.
He is dealing with 'deserters' at this time.
It was reported to him by a young official who ran a secret department that could not be disclosed.
It was a young government official, a graduate of the second batch. He obviously had a talent for magic, but he still chose to become a clerk. He started as a village liaison officer and rose through the ranks until now, becoming Qingchuan's right-hand man.
This is a capable and ambitious young man.
There are deserters, no surprise.
Tranquility leads hundreds of thousands of people, and many people were anxious in those days of war.After all, it is a new territory versus five established territories.Whether it's numbers or history, it looks like they're going to lose quietly.
However, only 56 companies actually took action and planned to escape overnight, which was far lower than Qingchuan's expected number.
He thought it had to be at least three digits.
These people are now crying and wanting to stay, saying they were wrong and so on.
Who would have thought at that time that the Tranquility Leader was so powerful that they could win so easily.
However, Qingchuan didn't even see them, leaving the houses and fields donated by the territory, as well as those livestock and rented grain, and Qingchuan didn't keep the rest, letting them take half of it.The other half is mental toll.
Because these people were just planning to move away quietly, and did not spread rumors or act as leaders, Qingchuan decided to let them go.
"Lord, there are actually some people... They were locked up by their parents, partners, and even children."
In fact, there should be some people, but the war ended too quickly, and these people haven't jumped out yet.Either the family members blocked it, or the thoughts were too deep.
"It doesn't matter, their families will keep an eye on them, and we will also keep an eye on them. Regarding the eviction of these sixteen families, let's broadcast it on today's radio, so that everyone will not misunderstand that they have encountered an accident. I am not such a stingy person .”
"This is the list of merchants who maliciously raised prices before. The raw materials of some non-local therapeutic medicines have increased more than ten times. This is the list of grassroots cadres who received reinforcements during this war and neither reported nor returned them."
Qing Chuan watched for a while, but he didn't speak, and others didn't know what he was thinking.
"Businessmen who maliciously drive up prices and hoard goods to raise prices will be investigated for the most serious crime of disrupting the market. The fines and subsequent trials will be handed over to the cadres in the jurisdiction, and finally the results will be shown to me. I will see the results within three days. , and announce it on the radio.”
"The next time something like this happens, during a major event, the businessman maliciously hoards goods and raises the price, so he directly sends an escort team over there. Either do business well and make money safely, or I will give him a ride."
"As for these grassroots cadres, wars, first-level natural disasters, and first-level epidemic prevention... Under such special circumstances, cadres' dereliction of duty, corruption, and omissions are all crimes. Do you know what I mean? Go back and have a meeting about this The important event shall be supplemented by the law that weighs the law."
"Our experience is still insufficient. The situation of donations by such citizens must be supervised. A special department must be set up to publicize how much, who, what, how much, and where and how much is used. One day Once, the whole process is transparent, and I can't tolerate sand in my eyes."
"Recover all the property first and return it to the citizens. In addition, as a citizen with a criminal record, three generations of immediate family members and two generations of collateral relatives are not allowed to enter the management and units directly under the territory. Everything should be dealt with strictly. A territory-wide announcement was made."
"Yes." The young man withdrew obediently.
Now there are only Qing Chuan and Wei Ge in the room.
He just wanted to escape, he was not angry, Qing Chuan couldn't believe that no mole had sneaked in for so many years.
He only knows that there are more than a dozen traitors who have been transformed into silent leaders. They are all professionally trained and good at acting, but emotions are hard to deceive.But the dozen or so traitors slowly came into contact with the administrative thinking and policies here, and after making their own judgments, it was natural that the good birds chose a tree to live in.
Among them are some very good talents, Qingchuan used them very smoothly.
As long as the Silence Leader maintains this advantage, there is nothing to be afraid of.
No matter how many spies come, their hearts will tell who they should choose.
"Lord, the Tranquility Territory is a huge place. Historically, it has accommodated more than 500 million people. It is a prosperous place. It is not a kingdom, but it is stronger than ordinary kingdoms." Wei Ge suddenly said, he called the lord, which means a subject identity is speaking.
Wei Ge's identity is like a general in command of the three armies and a part-time lord's wife.Because he holds the military power of the Silent Commander in his hand, the combat effectiveness of accepting the orc army is very high.Many people have said to Qingchuan that his rights should be limited to prevent the lord from being too powerful.
I don't know why, but many people feel that their lords are too indulgent and their partners are too defenseless. They are all very worried about Qingchuan's future, and they look at Wei Ge with the kind of "ambitious regent king, meddling with the military and political queen" '.
Qing Chuan heard the implication, "What do you want to know?"
"When will you become king?" Wei Ge looked at Qing Chuan with burning eyes.
Qing Chuan was taken aback for about three or four seconds before softly saying: "It's not yet time. Now the Silence Leader cannot immediately appear in front of those big forces."
Wei Ge untied the great sword at his waist, took two steps forward, and knelt down on one knee.
Kneeling is not popular among silent leaders, he can not kneel to anyone, anytime, anyone.But at this moment, he knelt down in front of Qing Chuan and looked at Qing Chuan with a smile.
"In my lifetime, I hope you will come to the world, Your Majesty."
The author has something to say: (*^▽^*)
Qingchuan sent letters to several lords, asking them to compensate for the economic losses, personnel losses, spiritual losses, etc. caused by the war to the quiet leader, a total of [-] gold coins, in addition to the ransom fees of various generals and leaders.

The general will receive [-] gold coins per person, and the food and accommodation expenses will be increased on a daily basis.
Three thousand gold coins for each major general, which also counts as food and accommodation expenses.
One thousand gold coins per knight, the treatment is as above.
There are fewer soldiers, one gold coin per person, is it a special discount?
Oh, by the way, there are also medical expenses, including treatment expenses and drug expenses, please pay them all at once, otherwise you will have to pick them up at your door, and you will have to add a travel fee at that time.
The other lord was naturally furious, asking for money or not, terribly - not at all!If you have the ability, you kill them and see what reputation they will have outside.

Some people also asked the lord, saying that the people could no longer eat bread, and they would not be able to eat beans if the tax was increased. The lord said: "The people can't afford bread, so let them eat cakes."
Therefore, it seems that not only their son and husband will not be able to come back for a while, but even some food from the family will be taken away.
All kinds of rumors, [-]% true and [-]% false, circulated in their territory. The civilians rioted several times, demanding that the lord return their son and husband.

The hatred value was firmly attracted by the earl, and everyone had completely forgotten that it was the lord of the Silent Land who captured those soldiers.
"My lord, we can ignore those untouchables, but there are a few of them..." a small official said hesitantly.

The truth is such a truth, but once the hole is opened, it is not a matter of one person.After redeeming my brother-in-law and other subordinates, I counted [-] to [-] gold coins.This is no small number.

How about a little work, young lad?
The stingy Earl also guarded his wallet firmly today.
"Why are you in a daze? Work!" The guards yelled, and the earl's brother-in-law and another earl's youngest son had no choice but to hold on to the handle of the car slowly, grinning and sending a cart of coal to the other side.
At the beginning, he still cursed every day, but now he has no strength to curse.
The rule here is that those who don't work don't get food, and those who don't work don't get food. The earl's brother-in-law can't work, his stomach is empty, and he really doesn't have the strength to make trouble.

These captives themselves are enjoying themselves: it's good, at least they can drink some broth after working hard, which is better than when they were soldiers in their hometown.
They worked here during the day, and after dark, there was a bonfire meeting in the prison camp.
These are reserved items, and the mercenaries and robbers who have been here before are very familiar with this model.Many of the captives in that batch have reformed themselves, and they even joined the guards now.Why do thoughts change so much?Thanks to the speeches from the Propaganda Department at the daily bonfire.
The lord really seized every opportunity to increase his population.
A few lords over there refused to redeem the people, feeling that the leader of Silence would not dare to do anything, and they were complacent.Just wait, when the population is lost in large numbers, you will know how to write the word regret.
On the first day, the topic of the speech was: Why are the descendants of nobles nobles, and the descendants of peasants peasants, can hard work change our class?Princes and generals, would you rather be kind?
On the second day, the topic of the speech was: why some people can eat, drink and have fun without doing anything, and some people work hard all their lives and finally starve to death. Whose fault is it?At this time, it is necessary to vigorously promote the various welfare policies of the Quiet Leader.
On the third day, the topic of the speech was: who is fooling us, who is preventing us from seeing the world clearly, who is making our children sit in a barren position from birth?It mainly talks about the importance of learning.
The Propaganda Department is Qingchuan's mouth and tongue, and he is conveying a message to the captives through these kind staff members - you are welcome to settle in the Tranquility Territory.
Farmers suffer, not because of stupidity and laziness, but because a lot of wealth that belongs to you is overexploited.Taxation is to protect one's own interests, but many people pay enough taxes, and their interests are still damaged in the end.
In Tranquility, we promulgate laws, in black and white, to protect the interests of the bottom people from being damaged.As long as you are not lazy and sinful, you will not be able to live as miserable as you are now.
In addition, in our silent land, class can be changed, you are a peasant, but your children can be officers or consuls.Why?Because your child has the same opportunity as the noble child, and that is to learn.
This is the fairest opportunity, regardless of lineage or wealth, only the child's own qualifications and hard work.With talent and hard work, you can soar into the sky.
Moreover, the first six years of basic education are free!
These include Chinese, mathematics, basic magic and basic martial arts, biology, art and so on.
The level of these teachers is equivalent to the professional teachers invited by the baron's family.It doesn't cost money, and it takes a full six years to attend the lessons of the baron's young master and miss. After coming out, there will be more job opportunities and better treatment.
'Want to move forward?I give you a chance! '
These days, the captives are getting acquainted with the administrators, and the administrators don't beat people, they just deduct points and deduct points, and the thick-skinned ones will also go to the administrators to inquire about the situation of the quiet leader.
To be honest, what these propaganda teams say is very good, but these people are middle-aged and old-fashioned, and it is not so easy to believe such propaganda.Didn't their lords say before that Silent Leader is weak and easy to fight, and everyone gets two gold coins after the fight?
The results of it?Aren't these idiots digging coal here?
For those who are superior, what is the difference between farting and farting?Just listen to it.
But one thing is true, the food here is really good, and the prisoners were not beaten or scolded.
They are around six o'clock in the morning - this concept of time is still said by the locals, who say that the big bronze bell rings at six o'clock.There is also a big mechanical clock above the office. Some magicians and warriors have high-end watches, which can also tell the time.
The prisoners got up at six o'clock and went to wash their faces (although they don't beat people here, there are a lot of things to do, and they have to wash their faces, clean their teeth with willow branches, so they can go to the bathroom conveniently), and then it's breakfast time, which usually only lasts 15 minutes.
I did a good job yesterday. It is a large fermented bread steamed from whole wheat flour. It is soft and sweet, and it comes with a bowl of vegetable soup.I didn't do well yesterday, so they gave me a cake made of bean dregs, which is not tasty, but it can satisfy my hunger.
This is very good, it can satisfy the hunger, how many people were still on the verge of half full before.
The administrator's food is even better. They have seen it before. It is a kind of white sandwich bread. It is bread made of flour ground from wheat cores that the old men eat. There is actually a piece of fat pork and two pieces of vegetables sandwiched inside. leaf.
You son of a bitch, even an administrator here can eat flour and meat?
The captives don't want to recall the last time they ate meat, it's too sad.
Breakfast is like this, and Chinese food and dinner are even better. The aunt who cooks will cook soup with meat and bones.When you are lucky, you can find a little bit of minced meat in the vegetable soup, that is really the happiest time of the day.
There is one thing to say here - there are three meals a day here?
There are two meals a day outside!Of course, the gentlemen also have afternoon tea and supper at night, but ordinary people basically have two meals a day.What kind of place is the Tranquility Territory? How could even the captives be given three meals?
It’s so good, the feeling of going to bed with a full stomach... If the priest in his hometown knows this, he will definitely say that he was bewitched by the devil. Only the devil eats three meals, and the gods don’t eat it. The less he eats The closer to holiness.
Oh, then I would still like to get closer to the devil - the captive who rubbed his belly thought so.
Not far away came a young non-commissioned officer, tall and fair, wearing a decent uniform, leather boots, and a long sword that looked very good at first glance.
The captives could still laugh and laugh in front of the administrators on weekdays, but when they saw the non-commissioned officers who were obviously superior people, they became quiet for a while. The civilians always had a natural fear of this kind of management who seemed to be of noble origin.
"Look, it's not bad, my son," said a caretaker of an old orange peel.
"Hush——" A prisoner who had a good relationship with him recently turned pale with fright, and persuaded him in a low voice, "Even if you don't like it, don't swear at others, it's over if you hear it!"
The administrator was very happy to show off his son, but when he heard this, he was dumbfounded, "What? Cursing? When will I... No, he is really my son."
The administrator who realized what was going on couldn't laugh or cry, don't they look alike?Eye color is exactly the same.
As a result, several prisoners around him shook their heads calmly.
"Don't brag, look at you, you look like you are looking for food in the field, look at your hands, they are thick and black. If you look at others, you can see that you are a nobleman. You look like that, but you have never suffered Yes, the skin is as white as powder."
"That is, you are so short, how can you give birth to such a tall son?"
Just as he was talking, the white-skinned non-commissioned officer came over, and a large group of people fell silent for fear that the other party would hear something and anger them.
"Father, I'm here to pick you up."
As soon as these words came out, a partridge was startled.
father?Father?
"I'm not a child, and I don't know how to go back by myself?" The administrator was a little unhappy, and his brown face was wrinkled into an old chrysanthemum. "Why are you here today? I'm done with work? If you have time, go find a girl." Take a walk and watch the latest dramas, I already have you at your age."
The words are full of the old father's rhythm of urging marriage.
The young non-commissioned officer was helpless, "Father, today is your birthday, don't forget to go back early, mother has specially ordered a big birthday cake."
Speaking of his wife, his face softened a little, "Okay, you go back quickly, I will go home after get off work in a while. Really, I came here specially for this."
The two talked for a while, and the young non-commissioned officer left.When the administrator turned his head, he saw a group of captives whose souls had gone out of their bodies.
"He is, really, your son?"
"What are you talking about? Of course he is my son!"
The face of the administrator who disliked his son so much just now changed, full of pride, "I'm not bragging, there were more than 60 children in a batch, only three children were selected to continue to go to school, and my son was one of them."
"His teachers are good to him, and the lord provides milk for each child. The wife at home loves the child and saves money to buy meat for him. A soldier must not lose nutrition. Who knows that this kid has grown up in those days , is taller than me now."
"Actually, I used to be said to be very talented. It's a pity that my family has no money, and life is delayed, otherwise I would be a soldier. My son is just like me, with talent. Our lord is willing to train him, and now he is also an official soldier."
"To tell you the truth, if you have children at home, you should hurry to our quiet leader, you are just like this, don't delay the children. Our lord has said that the younger the child, the easier it is to discover the talent. When it grows up, it takes shape.”
A prisoner with three children in his family was moved. He carefully asked the manager, "Silence leader, is it true that children go to school for free?" This sounds like a dream, could it be true?The young man who came to promote with a smile didn't lie to them?
The administrator suddenly became unhappy, "Our lord's rule is that all children under the age of 13 go to school, free of charge, and each child has a glass of milk a day. Our lord said that a glass of milk a day will make the children grow stronger and less likely to get sick!"
"The adults in our Propaganda Department have been talking for so many days, is it all for nothing? You said, children go to school for free, land tax is only two tenths, and occasionally catch a fish or a rabbit, no tax. If the boss doesn't pay you when you're working wages, there are ruffians beating people, find the adults in the office, they will protect us."
"My lord, um, what's your birthday?" Another prisoner asked.
"You don't even know your birthday? Your birthday is the day you were born. It is a day worth commemorating and celebrating." The administrator completely forgot that he had asked this question before, and now this birthday is still the day he specially chose to come to Ji Jing to collect it. .
In fact, commoners know that nobles celebrate the day of their birth every year.
The nobles should of course celebrate, they came into the world to enjoy themselves.People like them don't have a surname, and they don't have the concept of birthday, and their parents don't remember it deliberately.Because they were born to suffer, so what is there to commemorate the birth?
It is also here that I feel that being alive is a happy thing, and I will remember, celebrate my birthday, and celebrate my birth.
Would you still go out of your way to celebrate the day you were born?Isn't that something that the nobles can only do when they are full?
The captives suddenly believed that if the Silence Commander could raise a son who looked like a low-level person, and make a person celebrate his birth day so happily, then how could they doubt that this was not a man full of blood? A place of opportunity and possibility?
"My lord, take a look, how do you look at me? Can you join the Silence Leader?"
"That's right, me too. Look at this body, some people said I'm talented before. Can I join the Silence Leader?"
There was a large-scale wave of surrender among the captives. Later, after inquiring that it was the son of a manager who appeared, these people were convinced that the sky had really fallen.
Drop the pie, it's filled with meat!Can you wait?Can't wait!
Qing Chuan couldn't laugh or cry when he knew about it, and told the Propaganda Department that in future publicity, let's show a few examples to enhance persuasiveness.This benefit is too good, but it is actually troublesome, too good to believe.
He is dealing with 'deserters' at this time.
It was reported to him by a young official who ran a secret department that could not be disclosed.
It was a young government official, a graduate of the second batch. He obviously had a talent for magic, but he still chose to become a clerk. He started as a village liaison officer and rose through the ranks until now, becoming Qingchuan's right-hand man.
This is a capable and ambitious young man.
There are deserters, no surprise.
Tranquility leads hundreds of thousands of people, and many people were anxious in those days of war.After all, it is a new territory versus five established territories.Whether it's numbers or history, it looks like they're going to lose quietly.
However, only 56 companies actually took action and planned to escape overnight, which was far lower than Qingchuan's expected number.
He thought it had to be at least three digits.
These people are now crying and wanting to stay, saying they were wrong and so on.
Who would have thought at that time that the Tranquility Leader was so powerful that they could win so easily.
However, Qingchuan didn't even see them, leaving the houses and fields donated by the territory, as well as those livestock and rented grain, and Qingchuan didn't keep the rest, letting them take half of it.The other half is mental toll.
Because these people were just planning to move away quietly, and did not spread rumors or act as leaders, Qingchuan decided to let them go.
"Lord, there are actually some people... They were locked up by their parents, partners, and even children."
In fact, there should be some people, but the war ended too quickly, and these people haven't jumped out yet.Either the family members blocked it, or the thoughts were too deep.
"It doesn't matter, their families will keep an eye on them, and we will also keep an eye on them. Regarding the eviction of these sixteen families, let's broadcast it on today's radio, so that everyone will not misunderstand that they have encountered an accident. I am not such a stingy person .”
"This is the list of merchants who maliciously raised prices before. The raw materials of some non-local therapeutic medicines have increased more than ten times. This is the list of grassroots cadres who received reinforcements during this war and neither reported nor returned them."
Qing Chuan watched for a while, but he didn't speak, and others didn't know what he was thinking.
"Businessmen who maliciously drive up prices and hoard goods to raise prices will be investigated for the most serious crime of disrupting the market. The fines and subsequent trials will be handed over to the cadres in the jurisdiction, and finally the results will be shown to me. I will see the results within three days. , and announce it on the radio.”
"The next time something like this happens, during a major event, the businessman maliciously hoards goods and raises the price, so he directly sends an escort team over there. Either do business well and make money safely, or I will give him a ride."
"As for these grassroots cadres, wars, first-level natural disasters, and first-level epidemic prevention... Under such special circumstances, cadres' dereliction of duty, corruption, and omissions are all crimes. Do you know what I mean? Go back and have a meeting about this The important event shall be supplemented by the law that weighs the law."
"Our experience is still insufficient. The situation of donations by such citizens must be supervised. A special department must be set up to publicize how much, who, what, how much, and where and how much is used. One day Once, the whole process is transparent, and I can't tolerate sand in my eyes."
"Recover all the property first and return it to the citizens. In addition, as a citizen with a criminal record, three generations of immediate family members and two generations of collateral relatives are not allowed to enter the management and units directly under the territory. Everything should be dealt with strictly. A territory-wide announcement was made."
"Yes." The young man withdrew obediently.
Now there are only Qing Chuan and Wei Ge in the room.
He just wanted to escape, he was not angry, Qing Chuan couldn't believe that no mole had sneaked in for so many years.
He only knows that there are more than a dozen traitors who have been transformed into silent leaders. They are all professionally trained and good at acting, but emotions are hard to deceive.But the dozen or so traitors slowly came into contact with the administrative thinking and policies here, and after making their own judgments, it was natural that the good birds chose a tree to live in.
Among them are some very good talents, Qingchuan used them very smoothly.
As long as the Silence Leader maintains this advantage, there is nothing to be afraid of.
No matter how many spies come, their hearts will tell who they should choose.
"Lord, the Tranquility Territory is a huge place. Historically, it has accommodated more than 500 million people. It is a prosperous place. It is not a kingdom, but it is stronger than ordinary kingdoms." Wei Ge suddenly said, he called the lord, which means a subject identity is speaking.
Wei Ge's identity is like a general in command of the three armies and a part-time lord's wife.Because he holds the military power of the Silent Commander in his hand, the combat effectiveness of accepting the orc army is very high.Many people have said to Qingchuan that his rights should be limited to prevent the lord from being too powerful.
I don't know why, but many people feel that their lords are too indulgent and their partners are too defenseless. They are all very worried about Qingchuan's future, and they look at Wei Ge with the kind of "ambitious regent king, meddling with the military and political queen" '.
Qing Chuan heard the implication, "What do you want to know?"
"When will you become king?" Wei Ge looked at Qing Chuan with burning eyes.
Qing Chuan was taken aback for about three or four seconds before softly saying: "It's not yet time. Now the Silence Leader cannot immediately appear in front of those big forces."
Wei Ge untied the great sword at his waist, took two steps forward, and knelt down on one knee.
Kneeling is not popular among silent leaders, he can not kneel to anyone, anytime, anyone.But at this moment, he knelt down in front of Qing Chuan and looked at Qing Chuan with a smile.
"In my lifetime, I hope you will come to the world, Your Majesty."
