Chapter 24: The Blacksmith Got It

Huangfu Chaobo saw that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, so he wanted to change the subject. When he looked up, he saw five militiamen in common clothes and carrying copper knives behind him. "Hey, it seems that the eldest brother is here today to show off to the younger brother. When did you recruit five such tough militiamen?"

"Well, who dares to show off in front of you. I was provoked by Brother Chen Jing. I recruited five militiamen as soon as I gritted my teeth. I can't afford infantry. If you recruit too many militiamen, you can't support them. A hundred villagers It’s barely enough to raise five, and it’s a bit difficult to raise ten. I brought it here just to show you, to see if you want to recruit a few.”

As he said that, he opened the attribute of fighting the militia and showed it to Huangfu Chaobo.

Level 10 Militia: 200 copper, commoner clothes, copper knife, attack 10 defense 1 blood 100, 5 copper 2 food per day, every 5th level, each attack and defense +1, blood +10.

"It's not bad, the attack is more than twice that of the player. But why don't you recruit infantry?" Huangfu Chaobo said after watching;

"Other infantry? Look at me as if I have too much money to burn. Let me tell you: Tier 1 soldiers: light infantry—leather armor, can be recruited by the junior barracks in small villages, and the daily salary is 10 copper and 5 units of food, bow Soldiers are twice as many on this basis, and cavalry is 4 times. Level 10 short sword soldiers (first level) 1 puncture (1 silver), attack 12 defense 5 HP 150, 12th level sword and shield soldiers (first level) 3 punctures (3 silver) ), attack 12 and defense 8 blood 200, level 14 spearmen (first-tier) 5 punctures (5 silver), attack 15 defense 5 blood 150."

"Tsk tsk... No wonder everyone says that money is what is spent in war. Look at it like this, a small village really can't support a few soldiers." Huangfu Chaobo clicked his tongue again and again. "Five infantry, one day is 50 coppers and 25 grains, and one month is 1500 coppers and 750 grains. One catty of grain is 5 coppers, and the total is 5250 coppers in one month. Damn, steal money..." Huangfu Chaobo counted while talking, and after finishing the calculation, he was startled, and stared at Zongheng Tianxia with wide eyes;

"Yes, it is to steal money." Zong Hengtian said seriously; "If you dare to raise it, the system will dare to steal it."

"Damn, I won't recruit troops anymore, the three generals will fight the world." Huangfu Chaobo said with a depressed face; "By the way, brother, didn't you capture two bandits as prisoners? Did you recruit them?"

"Don't tell me I forgot, run rampant, bring it up." Zonghengtian said;

After a while, Rampage brought up three people, two of them were bandit swordsmen, and the other was a farmer. At the same time, five level 20 spears, two level 25 ring swords, two level 25 bows and a level 30 broadsword were placed on the ground.

Huangfu Chaobo looked at Zongheng Tianxia, ​​not knowing which one he was playing.

"These two bandit soldiers were not captured by Brother Chen Jing, so I brought them here for you. I also brought you the loot on the ground that day. There are also some copper coins for the people below to share. After all Lost so many brothers..."

"Get out, the gate is over there, you fuck me non-stop, as far as your thoughts go..." Huangfu Chaobo stood up, pointed to the gate and said to him; " Why don't you play this shit for me, I don't have a brother like you."

Everyone was taken aback for a moment, and then amused by Huangfu Chaobo's words. Even Nightingale sat on the edge and laughed non-stop. Only Zong Hengtian stood there with a flushed face, and was about to say something more, but was stared back by Huangfu Chaobo, so he shook his head with a wry smile and fell silent.

After a long while, everyone quieted down.

"Yeah, I'll stay with the Bandit Soldiers and see if I can recruit them to surrender. But in terms of equipment, you should choose a few. After all, Chen Jing has put in so much effort. You have to give him some rewards."

"Uh, that's right. How about it, Boyang, go up and choose yourself. Take what you want, don't be polite with this guy, it's best to take his house empty." Huangfu Chaobo thought about it, so he said Said to Chen Jing; As a result, this remark made everyone burst into laughter.

Chen Jing stepped forward and looked at it for a long time, but finally he just took the level 30 refined iron broadsword. Zonghengtianxia took a look, and immediately stopped him and said, "Brother Chen, you just... just take one of these?"

"To Chief Zongheng, this is enough. We have long spears and ring-shoulders. Birming can make bows, so I leave it to you to use. Only this big sword, I think I will wait for Birming at level 30. The time is right to use it. So I just take this knife." Chen Jing replied respectfully;

Everyone was stunned for a moment, he chose this one without thinking that he was asked to choose it, and he chose it for his companion. At the beginning, he was afraid that he would take half of it.

"You guys, if there is a master, there must be a servant." Zong Hengtian said;

"Okay, I have chosen the things, now you can reveal the mystery."

"Mystery? What kind of mystery?"

"Hey, what happened to that farmer? You told me that you caught him too."

"Oh, last time I heard Hengxing go back and say that there is no blacksmith in your village. Just yesterday, the blacksmith in our village was promoted to a senior level and can take care of apprentices, so he asked him to bring two apprentices, and I brought you one today. Let me declare first, He agreed to it himself."

Upon hearing the word blacksmith, Huangfu Chaobo and Henry Zhang's eyes widened, and they all stared at the farmer. He didn't even listen carefully to what Zonghengtian said later.

When Zonghengtian saw them like this, he suddenly thought of making fun of them. Turning to Nightingale, she said, "Yinger, it seems that we are being good people in vain again. It seems that Luoshen Village really has everything they need." She blinked at Nightingale as she spoke. Nightingale immediately understood the purpose of Zongtian Tianxia, ​​so she said, "Yes, let Hengxing take it down first, we'll take it back later." She said and winked at Hengxing and the others. Or A World Without Thieves reacted quickly and knew what they meant immediately. "Okay, boss, then I'll take him out first." He said as if to take the farmer out.

Huangfu Chaobo realized this, jumped up and said loudly: "Wait, I'm in a hurry with whoever takes him away. You seem to have said just now that he came to our village voluntarily. Mr. Zhang, hurry up and take that blacksmith out." Settle down. By the way, stop all other buildings first. Except for the 50 loggers, everyone else is going to build the blacksmith workshop before doing other things."

When everyone saw his appearance, they all burst into laughter. Huangfu Chaobo didn't care at all, and immediately asked Henry Zhang to arrange the blacksmith workshop.

"Yes, son." As he said, Henry Zhang took the peasants to go outside, and when he walked to the door, he suddenly remembered something, turned around and walked to the front of Zongheng Tianxia and saluted: "Village Zongheng, thank you old man You."

"Mr. Zhang is too polite, there is no need for these common etiquettes between us."

"By the way, Mr. Zhang, after the construction is completed, take all the iron and let the blacksmith rush to make some farm tools overnight. Damn, I recruited more than fifty farmers and didn't see a blacksmith. Now I finally have one."

Zongheng Tianxia was taken aback when he heard that, "What? How many farmers did you say you recruited?"

"More than fifty. What's the matter?" Huangfu Chaobo replied blankly;

"More than fifty? You only worked a few days? You recruited more than fifty people?" The World Without Thieves was taken aback; "Our village has only been fully recruited this morning. The food for next month is scarce. Yes. Boss Chaobo, do you have so much food?"

"I bought three thousand catties. It should be enough, right?"

"Three thousand catties? Fifteen thousand coppers! Did your village really buy so much? Where did you get so much money?" Everyone in Zongheng Village jumped up in fright.

"Hey, you don't know, Boss and Lao Chen killed some bandit leaders and exchanged more than 30 taels of silver in the county government." Xiao Jiejie immediately jumped out to show off;

"Thirty taels, shit, our village saves more than 1,000 coppers all day long, and you cut off two heads and you have more than thirty taels. Is there any reason for this?" Zong Hengtian sat there Weep bitterly. "Slap" "No, I want to borrow money. Ten taels, oh no, at least five taels." He stood there and said through gritted teeth;

"Is five taels enough?"

"Borrow five taels first, and then come to you if it's not enough. It's really unreasonable for a rich man to eat pickles every day."

"Oh, then you take five taels first, and tell me if it's not enough, I still have a dozen taels." Huangfu Chaobo handed over the money.

Looking at the money in his hand, Zonghengtian felt a little embarrassed. Five thousand coppers was equivalent to the money in the hands of all the players in his village. Just about to say something, Huangfu Chaobo said: "It's nothing, you use it first, I still have it here. I'll just charge less iron first."

"Actually, I also want to charge more iron. The price of iron is not high now, and it will rise after a while, and there is little iron in places like our Central Plains. It will be very expensive in the future." Zong Hengtian said ;

"Yes. I'm desperately stockpiling raw materials now. Oh, by the way, brother, is there any news about the upgrade blueprint for that village? How can I get it?"

"I haven't heard of anyone getting it yet. There are shops in the system city, but it costs 100 silver, so I think there should be other ways to get it, and it can be much cheaper." Zong Hengtian shook his head.

"Boss, do you also have to fight bandits or something else?" Said Hengxing Tianxia beside him.

"Yes, there should be, but with our current strength, can we win?" A World Without Thieves said

"Yes, there must be, but the problem is that we can't beat them down. My blueprints were released by the Second King of the Shanzhai. But you think, the last time I beat the Shanzhai, more than 100 officers and soldiers died, and they were still dead. We have lost so many players. Our current strength is to kill as many as possible." Huangfu Chaobo said

"I don't care about him, let's finish the business of growing grain first, and then go to see a few more cottages, pick up an easier one and try it out. Anyway, we have to try it first to know. Alright, we have to go back Let's get ready. Let's meet to discuss this matter after the grain planting is done." After finishing speaking, Zongheng Tianxia and his group got up to go back to Zongheng Village.
