"good."
"Village leader Liu is righteous."
"Thank you, Village Chief Liu."
One by one, the villagers knelt down to express their gratitude.
"I only have one request. I'll make sure you have enough food to eat while you're here, but you can't betray me."
Liu Feng added.
After standing up, these people all looked at Liu Feng with gratitude.
Looking at these excited villagers, Liu Feng felt happy too.
In this way, he obtained the land deeds and house deeds of Shanggou Village, laying the foundation for occupying more places in the future.
When the time is right, the entire Shanggou Village will also have to follow the surname Liu.
After merging the two villages and adding the surrounding mountains and forests and the Tianwaitian area, he became a complete local tyrant.
Even if the imperial court wanted to intervene, it would have to act according to his mood.
Hahaha…….
Soon, Lin Xiaoxi arrived with his men.
She was injured when she was suppressing the rebellion in Tianwai Tian last time. She still dares not move one of her arms. She applies herbal medicine and bandages it.
After suppressing the rebellion, Lin Xiaoxi returned to the village and trained the guard team.
The village is inspected twice a day.
Seeing Lin Xiaoxi working so hard, Liu Feng became unhappy. He felt that he had become an exploiter like Wang Changsheng. Was he that kind of person?
Lin Xiaoxi helped him block the knife, but as a bodyguard, it was his duty to block the knife for his master.
Although Liu Feng had a better impression of her, he absolutely couldn't trust her just like that. What if it was intentional?
However, Liu Feng is not a heartless and ungrateful person, and he will give the benefits that are due.
After explaining what needed to be done, Liu Feng waved his hand.
"Come with me."
The women who had fled the famine with Lin Xiaoxi were originally assigned to cook.
But Liu Feng later found that cooking did not require so many people, so he assigned a few people to do other things.
Now, under Liu Feng's training, they have learned how to make leather armor and are working hard to make it.
These women have survived famine and many life-threatening situations, and they know how to be grateful. They are more calm than the women in the village and are not lazy at all when doing things.
In just a few days, these women dismantled all the leather armor he brought back from the Northern Barbarian Camp and sewed a new sample according to Liu Feng's design.
Liu Feng is very satisfied with their work.
The place where these women worked was next to Zhuzi's carpenter workshop, which was two idle houses in the village.
Seeing Liu Feng and Lin Xiaoxi appear, the women in the workshop immediately put down their work, stood up and waited for Liu Feng's instructions.
"Hello, village chief."
Liu Feng chuckled.
"Go get the stuff out."
Liu Feng gestured for them to sit down.
The woman in charge here is Xiaomei. She was chosen because of her special circumstances. As a mother of two children, she knows how difficult it is to make a living.
Xiaomei has dark skin, is not tall, and wears pigtails. She looks like a village woman. She doesn't talk much, but she works seriously.
As soon as he entered the garment workshop, Liu Feng noticed that Lin Xiaoxi's eyes were not right, and Xiaomei looked at Lin Xiaoxi with a bit of affection. Although these details were very subtle, they were still captured by the careful Liu Feng.
If one of them was a man, Liu Feng could understand it.
However, as a woman, if she behaves like this, then she might be a relative or a sister.
"Village Chief, this is made according to your drawings."
"We are all women, so we can't tell whether something is good or bad, but we can definitely guarantee the quality."
"And we can feel that this is much lighter than the original armor."
And it's very flexible.
Xiaomei held the plate and kept talking while staring at the armor on the plate.
Liu Feng's design is to disassemble all the original armor and reassemble it, using a combination of hemp rope and iron wire to sew it. This way, the leather armor is not only durable but also comfortable to wear.
The most important part of the armor is the chest. Liu Feng divided the original piece of leather armor into eight pieces and overlapped them with each other. This not only enhanced the defense, but also made it fit the body better in the chest.
The rest of the parts have undergone minor changes, such as the wrist guards, shoulders, ankles, and knees.
The overall defense capability has not been reduced.
Lin Xiaoxi looked at the armor and felt very envious.
It would be great if the village chief could give her a set of such a good thing. Then she could become a female general when she puts it on.
"This set of armor is the first one. Since you have done me a great service by blocking the sword, I will give it to you as a reward."
"ah……."
"Village Chief, is that true?"
Lin Xiaoxi couldn't believe it and even suspected that she had heard it wrong.
Although this kind of leather armor is not as powerful as iron armor, it is very difficult to make a set, and it is almost non-existent among the people.
You should know that even the hundreds of garrison troops in Wenhuang County did not have such leather armor.
Only lieutenants and above are qualified to wear it.
"Village Chief, this is too expensive. I can't afford it."
Lin Xiaoxi quickly declined, but her eyes were full of desire.
Even cavalrymen don't wear such advanced leather armor, but Lin Xiaoxi has seen cavalrymen before.
"According to the laws of Dali, this thing is indeed not cheap, but since you have made great contributions, you deserve the reward."
Liu Feng signaled Xiaomei to change Lin Xiaoxi's clothes.
Xiaomei was very happy to see that this set of armor had become Lin Xiaoxi's, and she immediately began to help Lin Xiaoxi put it on.
Lin Xiaoxi froze. She couldn't believe it and felt mixed emotions.
"Don't worry, wear it. Besides, with the armor, you can block more attacks next time you block my sword."
"It can buy me more time."
