Chapter 333: 30,000 Soldiers
In the evening, Lu Wanyin had almost rested, and Xie Jingci helped her get dressed and wash up before going out for dinner.
The atmosphere at the dinner table was a bit weird.
Several guards were busy eating, grinning from time to time.
The old lady looked pleased and kept picking up food for Lu Wanyin: "Wanyin, come and try this, that one is also good. Oh, it's not convenient for you to pick up the food, grandma will do it."
Lu Wanyin was embarrassed and decisively reached out to block the food that Xie Jingci was holding from the other side: "That's enough, eat yours."
Then he put the vegetables piled up like a mountain in his bowl into Xie Jingci's bowl.
There is a table full of delicacies from land and sea, but there is someone extremely discordant next to him.
Du Guangjin had cotton stuffed in both of his nostrils, and in front of him was a large bowl of white porridge and a plate of pickles.
He smelled the aroma while eating porridge with pickles: "Isn't this torture?"
Lu Wanyin looked at Xie Jingci in surprise: "What's wrong with him?"
Xie Jingci didn't even glance at him, and curled his lips: "He's greedy."
Lu Wanyin:
Because of greed, so porridge and pickles
The guards shook their shoulders twice and quickly regained their composure.
Last night, Du Guangjin drank a whole bowl of Ten-Ingredient Tonic Soup in one breath.
Within half an hour, he began to sweat all over, his nose was bleeding profusely, and he almost thought he was going to die.
Fortunately, there were many people in the mountains who knew medical skills. After a quick examination, they threw the man into the lake and he didn't climb out until morning.
Du Guangjin felt wronged, but he didn't say it.
Otherwise it would be too embarrassing.
He was not so greedy before, it was just because the food on this mountain was so good.
*
The 30,000 elite soldiers on the mountain have recovered a lot after a day of rest.
Lu Wanyin took out several long chains from the stadium and built a chain bridge on both sides of the cliff.
The pace was not very fast and it took six hours before everyone reached the other side of the cliff.
The area on the other side is not smaller than this side, but the difference is that it is surrounded by water on all sides.
Unless someone can fly, the cliffs of Zizai Peak are the only way to get past.
Lu Wanyin casually planted some fruit trees and left the rest of the space untouched.
Lu Wanyin took out a large water tank and said, "Let them use this spring water in batches."
After the spiritual spring water was upgraded, its effect became even stronger.
When Xuan Qi and the others drank large amounts of it, they had already been eating ingredients grown from the spiritual spring for a long time.
These 30,000 people are different, so we have to proceed step by step.
Xie Jingci's training method is really a bit loud.
So this side of the cliff is simply a natural training ground.
"Understood. It will probably be over in three to five days. When the time comes, we will send 10,000 people down the mountain."
Xie Jingci said, his eyes fell on the jade hairpin in her hair, his expression gentle: "Madam, please stay with us."
Lu Wanyin felt a pain in her waist when she heard this, and she decisively distanced herself from him: "I politely declined. I'm planning to start my bank business. And the announcement from the City Lord's Mansion, the sooner the better."
Recruiting 10,000 city guards in just three to five days is already quite a stretch.
No matter how late it is, even a fool can see that there is something fishy.
Lu Wanyin disappeared instantly.
Xie Jingci looked at the large water tank on the ground, shook his head and laughed out loud.
In Zizai Peak, the tea trees seem to be more lush than before.
Next to the tea trees is the courtyard of Lu Wanyin and Xie Jingci.
As soon as Lu Wanyin arrived at the gate of the courtyard, she saw Xuanyi carrying a basket and plucking leaves from the tree.
Du Guangjin watched eagerly from a distance.
The look was a little blurry, as if he was looking at a mountain of gold.
Lu Wanyin looked up and shouted, "Xuan Yi, you keep an eye on the things on the mountain. I'm going down the mountain for a while."
Xuan Yi lowered his head towards Lu Wanyin and loudly said, "Don't worry, Madam."
A lot of tea leaves in the basket floated out.
Du Guangjin instantly covered his chest with his hands in pain.
What a waste of resources.
Lu Wanyin came down from the mountain and went to Zizai Building first.
Song Jiuning was sitting behind the counter in the lobby, holding the account book and thinking hard.
The lobby was still packed with no empty seats.
Song Jiuning thought it was just another guest and didn't pay much attention to it.
Until Lu Wanyin walked to the front of the counter and asked in a low voice, "Jiu Ning, where is Di Er?"
After the Zizai Building was built, Di Er felt that it was a good place to collect intelligence.
Song Jiuning still had a clinic to manage, so Di Er disguised himself as the owner of Zizailou.
He usually stays here when he has nothing to do.
When Song Jiuning heard Lu Wanyin's voice, her face lit up with joy: "You came down the mountain again so soon."
There was a knocking sound on the stairs, and the owner of Zizailou came down from upstairs.
Lu Wanyin recognized Di Er at a glance and went to meet him decisively.
The smile on Song Jiuning's face froze.
She stared at Lu Wanyin closely.
I haven't told her yet how to deal with those malicious resellers.
We can't let her get away this time.
After Lu Wanyin carefully explained the recruitment matter to Di Er, she turned around and saw Song Jiuning standing behind her.
"That's right, I have something else to talk to you about."
Before Song Jiuning could speak, Lu Wanyin pulled her to the backyard and said, "I've thought about the money bank carefully. It's really a good idea."
Song Jiuning quickly reminded: "Then the benefits you give cannot be too much."
Lu Wanyin patted her hand and said, "Don't worry. You should spend your money in the city. Don't even think about taking a penny home. It's still ours."
Song Jiuning was puzzled, but very satisfied: "Let's go and discuss the plan together."
Orders came out from Zizai Building one after another.
[Zizailou is publicly purchasing shops again, with the price being three times the normal market price.]
Lu's Money House is about to reopen. Anyone who deposits money in Zizailou will receive a monthly bonus of two taels for deposits of 10,000 taels, and so on.
[In addition to shops, Zizai Peak is aggressively acquiring real estate, accepting all offers. Those who sell their land deeds or house deeds can purchase newly built houses in the city at 20% of the price.]
[Now that spring has arrived, Zizai Peak wants to reclaim thousands of acres of fertile land outside the city.
All tenants under the name of Zizai Peak can receive seeds for free in the first year, and can keep 80% of the grain from the next year's harvest.
Starting from the second year, the tenant can keep 70% of the profit every year.
Moreover, it is tax-free. 】
Notices were posted one after another, causing an uproar in the city.
"They actually keep the money for free and even give you benefits. There are such good things in the world."
"And one last one. The tenants of Zizai Peak are actually allowed to keep 70% of the grain, and they're not taxed!"
Even in areas with fertile land, the landlords take the lion's share.
What's the difference between this and half delivery?
"The tax exemption issue is decided by the imperial court. The City Lord's Mansion has no right to decide it."
Some were still hesitant, while others were already excited: "Who cares? If Zizai Peak says it's exempt, then it must be exempted. We can just focus on farming."
Before they could digest it, another notice came from the City Lord's Mansion.
[Recently, banditry has been rampant outside the city, and we need to expand the city defense force by 10,000.]
The people of Zizai City were stunned for a while.
That's it
Don't you even write down the conditions and benefits?
Look at how sincere they are in recruiting tenants!
Although, there was no place to grow crops within a hundred miles.
The common people, who had always been idle for a whole winter, suddenly felt very busy. They looked left and right, all confused: "Should we go to the City Lord's Mansion to apply for the recruitment, or go to Zizai Building to sign up?"
