Become a feudal king from today

Chapter 70 Secret Hand

"Great, great."

More than a thousand craftsmen came out of the cabin one after another and gathered on the river bank.

Wang Ying rubbed his hands excitedly. With this group of craftsmen, the Bingzhan Division suddenly had more manpower.

Zhao Xu felt more satisfied than wine.

Craftsmen have always been a precious resource in ancient times, and they often became the object of competition between the enemy and ourselves in wars.

In contemporary ancient wars, sometimes aliens plundering an area can even plunder more than 100,000 craftsmen.

For example, in the mid-Tang Dynasty, Nanzhao invaded Yizhou. After Yizhou was plundered, more than 100,000 Tang Dynasty craftsmen were plundered by Nanzhao.

The arrival of these craftsmen improved Nanzhao's technical level.

The same thing happened in Dasong. After Yanzhou's Ningjin Dusi was defeated by Beidi, tens of thousands of craftsmen invisibly improved Beidi's military capabilities.

And if he has abundant craftsman resources, why can't he turn the technology in his mind into reality.

"The person in front of you is His Highness King Yan. As long as you are willing to serve His Highness, His Highness will not treat you badly." At this time, Wang Yanzhong shouted to the craftsman.

Many craftsmen looked at me and I looked at you. The unfamiliar environment made them very uneasy.

Moreover, they do not understand King Yan yet.

The craftsmen's low mood was noticed by Zhao Xu.

It's not okay to work in the War and War Department with such an attitude.

However, this cannot be blamed on the craftsmen. After all, they took advantage of others' danger and bought them during the war in Jinzhou.

After thinking about it, he felt that it was necessary to give hope to these craftsmen just like he gave hope to the people of Yan County.

Clearing his throat, he said: "I know that you have sold yourselves and become slaves, which is very uncomfortable, but it is too early for you to be discouraged. Now, I will make you a promise. During the War and War Division, you will You can get a monthly bonus every month, and those who perform well can also get rewards. At the same time, the Bingzhan Division will also help those of you who are not married to find a wife. "

"hey-hey……"

After Zhao Xu finished speaking, several of the craftsmen laughed, and the atmosphere was no longer as lifeless as before.

Zhao Xu smiled and said, "To put it simply, except that you cannot leave the Military War Department without authorization, you are no different from ordinary people."

When the craftsmen heard this, they all became energetic.

For them, having a stable place to eat is good.

The favorable conditions now simply exceeded their expectations.

As for whether he can leave the Bingzhan Division, it doesn't matter.

Where can they go without them?

"Okay, Chief Wang, take them back and give them the same treatment as the craftsmen of the War Department." Seeing that the craftsmen were getting emotional, Zhao Xu said to Wang Ying.

"Yes, Your Highness." Wang Yingle was stunned.

Someone led the way, and many craftsmen followed Wang Ying towards the Bingzhan Division.

Only Zhou Yi and Wang Yanzhong were left at the dock. Zhao Xu said, "This time you brought a timely rain, and I will reward you."

Wang Yanzhong said: "Your Highness treats me as a human being, so I will naturally give my life back to Your Highness."

"Same for the little one." Zhou Yi laughed.

At this time, Zhao Xu noticed a shallow blood stain on Zhou Yi's face and asked, "What's going on?"

Zhou Yi touched the scar and smiled.

Wang Yanzhong glanced at him and said carelessly: "I was chopped down by other people working in the dental industry in Jinzhou. In this business, I lick the blood with the tip of the knife. Sometimes when I encounter rebels, it is normal to lose my life."

Zhou Yi glanced at Wang Yanzhong gratefully, "Thankfully Wang Yanzhong responded in time, otherwise the little head would have been lost."

Zhao Xu frowned and looked at the boatman standing on the boat.

Each of these people carries a waist knife, and they are all members of Wang Yanzhong Yaxing.

This shows how dangerous this business is.

After all, in ancient times, merchants needed escorts when transporting goods, otherwise the escort business would not have become so popular.

"The accumulation of original capital is always bloody." This sentence came to Zhao Xu's mind.

Collecting people from all over Dasong is indeed a gray business, but now he has to do it.

When these people come under his command, they will become the cornerstone of the development of Yan County and will be treated well.

It is much better than starving to death on the way to escape, or falling into the hands of a wealthy family and never being able to stand up again.

Therefore, Wang Yanzhong and Zhou Yi brought more than a thousand craftsmen this time, which made him feel that they needed to give greater support to them.

"Thank you for your hard work. I'm afraid you will have to continue to live like this in the future. However, I have reserved a position for you in the government office. When you succeed and retire in the future, you can become officials." Zhao Xu said, this is what he has given you. The road prepared by two people.

Although Wangfu has now acquired Yahang, outsiders don't know about it.

I just thought that Yaxing was cooperating with Wangfu.

This is also to prevent anyone from making a fuss about this matter in the DPRK.

"Thank you, Your Highness, we will definitely live up to His Highness's expectations." Zhou Yi and Wang Yanzhong were overjoyed.

This promise made them feel immediately motivated.

Zhao Xu smiled and nodded, "This time, I will also allocate a large amount of money to you. You can recruit more guards. The Bingzhang Division will also provide you with swords and armor. You must expand the Yaxian."

He wants Wang Yanzhong's Yaxing to grow and develop, and the number of guards to grow from dozens to hundreds to thousands.

The number of ships changed from three to five to thirty to fifty, to three to five hundred.

In this way, Wang Yanzhong and Zhou Yi became another force under the palace.

And because on the surface, Yaxing only has a trade relationship with the palace.

When something is inconvenient, you can let Dental Clinic do it for you.

In this way, even if others accuse the palace, he can deny it.

After chatting for a while at the dock, Zhao Xu asked Wang Yanzhong and Zhou Yi to go back and rest.

After all, the two of them were very tired from sleeping in the open air during this time.

After seeing the two people off, Zhao Xu prepared to return to the palace under Xu Lie's escort.

As soon as I got on the horse, I suddenly saw a pretty woman standing in front of everyone.

"Is it you?" Xu Lie narrowed his eyes.

This person is none other than Huan'er, the maid who stayed with Xu E in Tianxiang Tower last time.

Huan'er glanced at Xu Lie, raised the corner of her mouth slightly, and then bowed to Zhao Xu, "Your Highness, my lady would like to invite His Highness to Tianxiang Pavilion. I wonder if His Highness can appreciate it."

Zhao Xu frowned.

The last time we met at Tianxiang Tower, there was almost no movement from Tianxiang Tower during this period.

Now that Tianxianglou is suddenly looking for him, there must be some news.

Nodding, he said: "Let's go."

Huan'er bowed again, got on a horse and led Zhao Xu towards Tianxiang Tower.

Seeing Huan'er's skillful movements on the horse, Xu Lie said to Zhao Xu in a low voice: "Your Highness, I'm afraid all the women in Tianxiang Tower have been trained and are good at singing and dancing. I'm afraid they are also good at killing people."

Zhao Xu was speechless and a little envious. He didn't know who the owner of Tianxiang Tower was, but he did such a good job in intelligence work.

He also thought that he had only just woken up for more than a month, and he might have been operating in Dasong for decades, and he felt balanced.

He secretly thought that when his Yan Guard officially came out, he would investigate Tianxiang Tower thoroughly.
