Lin Xinping's eyes showed surprise. He really didn't expect that a guy who appeared out of nowhere would speak like that.
Compared to those who only know how to flatter, Hu Laosan can be considered a fierce general. If he is properly trained, he may achieve great things in the future.
After pondering for a moment, Lin Xinping said, "For your merit in being the first to charge, it would be no exaggeration to appoint you as a centurion. However, I am still short of a chariot and cavalry captain for this battle. I wonder if you would be willing?"
Hu Laosan immediately replied, "I have some experience with horseback riding, and I am quite confident in my skills. I promise I won't disappoint you, sir."
"Oh, I really underestimated you. I didn't expect you to be able to ride a horse. Your family must have been well-off before. But don't be discouraged. It may be your fate to have fallen to this state, but it's not over yet."
In this way, Hu Laosan successfully rose to the rank of Colonel of Chariots and Cavalry under Lin Xinping. Although his official rank was not high, he had become a trusted confidant. After all, cavalry was an absolute core force for any general.
Meanwhile, in the small courtyard of the special class, Xia Qingyu was preparing some food early in the morning when she suddenly discovered that someone had walked out of the house next to hers.
Xia Qingyu had been staying here for several days, but she hadn't noticed that there was someone else in the house. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Mo Li, that taciturn man.
"Good morning."
Xia Qingyu nodded. "You live here too? Why haven't I seen you before?"
“I had nowhere else to go, so I stayed here. I go to bed early at night.”
Xia Qingyu had a bit of a headache. He thought he could get along with both the chubby boy and Zhang Zifeng, but Mo Li was the only one who was really difficult to get along with.
Although Mo Liren is not a bad person, what happened before made him somewhat taciturn.
Not to mention geniuses, they all have certain problems at times, and Mo Li's biggest problem is that speaking is just too difficult for him.
After glancing at the food in the pot, Xia Qingyu asked, "Since you're up, I just made some breakfast. Would you like to eat together?"
Although she was asking a question, Xia Qingyu didn't wait for Mo Li to speak before she took Mo Li's hand. Although it wasn't much, it wasn't difficult for the two children to have enough to eat.
As the saying goes, "He who eats another's food is bound to him, and he who takes another's money is bound to him." After finishing breakfast, Mo Li said, "Young Master Ning once told us a story. If you want to train someone's attention, just stare at a mosquito. When you can see the mosquito even if you don't care, then your attention is sufficient."
Xia Qingyu said with a smile, "Are you solving my problem from yesterday? I didn't say I wanted your help."
Mo Li turned her head and said, "This is just a suggestion. Whether you do it or not is up to you. I think even if it's not a real mosquito, it should be fine to use other small things instead."
After saying that, Mo Li wanted to leave immediately. Although the two of them were not very old, he still felt uncomfortable being in a girl's boudoir.
But as soon as he stepped out of the room, he heard Xia Qingyu's silvery laughter and a sentence that left him speechless: "Has anyone ever told you that you can actually be quite cute sometimes?"
Having been here for so long, Xia Qingyu has gradually adapted to the lifestyle here, and carefree is the best word to describe this place.
Of course, it would be even better if we didn't have to take all sorts of tests from that little white ball every day, since failing a test could really get you a beating.
Meanwhile, Ning Ye was filled with excitement as he prepared to begin his journey through the system.
The longer this process continues, the more useful the items that appear in the system become. Basically, there's nothing useless, and each refresh actually gives you a sense of anticipation.
The system store has been refreshed this week. Happy shopping!
[High-quality forage seeds, 100 coins per bag, can be redeemed indefinitely.]
[Veterinary Encyclopedia, exchangeable for ten taels of silver.]
[A complete set of the deluxe edition of Dream of the Red Chamber, exchangeable for one hundred taels of silver.]
[High-quality iron ore map, exchangeable for 300 taels of silver.]
[One P90 rifle, carrying 300 rounds of ammunition, exchanged for 500 taels of silver.]
After looking at the products, Ning Ye suddenly felt that if he had a P90 and so many bullets, he could probably kill whoever he wanted in the world. Of course, such a thought was indeed a bit of a pipe dream.
After all, the number of people around those big shots who would risk their lives for them would probably far exceed one's imagination. It is indeed a bit of a pipe dream to think that one person with just a gun could take care of everyone.
However, this thing is definitely a powerful weapon for self-defense; it can easily wipe out dozens of people in a short time.
But it's so out of place with the current art style, what on earth is going on?
As for other things, I just felt that this was the system's consistent nature, but I was a little confused about this iron ore map.
Ning Ye knew that, for the time being, it was impossible to mine ore in many places. If Ning Ye remembered correctly, he had previously exchanged a small mining equipment from the system. That equipment could mine ore automatically, and he could disguise it as mining on the surface.
Looking at the map, it's not far from Qingyuan. I'll go there myself and get a steady stream of iron ore. Steel will always be the most important strategic resource, no matter when.
As for Ning Ye, he had already made up his mind. Since he was selling art now, it wouldn't hurt to sell some serious books as well. As long as he could make money, any book was a good book.
The remaining items basically correspond to the cattle and sheep I recently brought back. It seems that the system refreshes items based on the problems I've encountered, rather than being completely random.
Of course, regardless of whether the system refreshes randomly or not, as long as the refreshed items are useful, Ning Ye said he absolutely loved the system.
Ning Ye initially thought that feeding so many refugees was a bit too much, but now he realizes that there will never be enough people.
When productivity is low, you can only fill the gap with a large number of people. However, Ningye already has enough people, but Qingmei Village also has a lot to do.
So much so that Ning Ye is now finding it difficult to find a group of people specifically to raise these cattle and sheep. After all, these people have never raised them before, so the number of people needed at the beginning will definitely be large, which makes things quite complicated.
