Skynet In Another World's.
Dilemmas
Thieves always apply the principle of strong respect. Whoever has a big fist is the boss. These ordinary thieves had weak physiques, so their status in the cottage was also the lowest.
On top of the lowest ranked ordinary bandits, there were quite a few people who were in the middle position in the hut, these people were 50 or so blacksmith workers who were being held in the hut by the Xiao family.
Hong Ji was surprised, he did not know that there would be so many blacksmith workers in an ordinary cottage.
"It's so easy! With these basic blacksmith workers, I am confident that the steam engine can be produced within a month, and the cottage will enter the steam age!"
Hong Ji stared intently at the raw iron smelting and manufacturing equipment piling up in the cottage warehouse, which was exclusive to this era. Not only did he not have the slightest bit of dislike in his heart, but he was extremely excited.
Teng Yuan, who was in charge of the introduction, pointed to the idle iron tools in the cottage warehouse and some finished products that were neatly displayed on the weapons rack and explained.
"This tool for smelting and iron making was provided by the Xiao family, and its purpose was to secretly forge their weapons and armor for the Xiao family. Due to the laws of the princes, the number of private soldiers held by the family was limited, weapons and armor. It has a strict upper limit, and its purpose is to ensure that the military power of the princes and kings always has an absolute advantage."
When Hong Ji introduced his origins after taking over the lodge, he claimed to be from an unborn hermit sect. Since the school had been cut off from the outside world for a long time, there was a lot of common sense information at this time that was unknown.
Teng Yuan also explained this to Hong Ji in great detail at the moment based on those considerations. Of course, Hong Ji fabricated everything about the hermit sect. In fact, Hong Ji had obtained everything you wanted to know from Teng Yuan's brain memory. The reason why I am still patiently listening to Teng Yuan's explanation is just a cutscene.
Hongji obviously did not notice Teng Yuan's words, but he nodded gently, indicating that he was listening.
Teng Yuan received positive feedback from Hong Ji, and he was quite excited at the moment. You know, from Hong Ji's point of view, introducing Hong Ji to Shanzhai's current internal affairs was a good opportunity to please Hong Ji.
Teng Yuan was not only talented and capable, but also had a lot of ambition and ambition in his heart. He used to rely on arrogance and pursuit in his heart to reach the position of bandit leader away from ordinary bandits, even though it was only the last boss.
At this moment, Teng Yuan only had one thought on his mind, and he worked hard to perform well in front of Hong Ji. If he could get Hong Ji's attention and pass on his martial arts with one and a half blows, then he would be extremely prosperous.
If you are lucky enough to worship the hermit sect behind Hong Ji, it will be easier. The development of Teng Yuan's civil status in this era was too curbed and discriminated against, if there were no adventures, Teng Yuan would not be able to surpass the civilian class in his life.
It was impossible for the aristocratic family clan to reuse Teng Yuan, who was an ordinary person. In this era, the class threshold was very tight. It was impossible for the upper classes to allow the lower classes to share their interests.
The Xiao Clan was unable to give it to Teng Yuan, but a warrior who came from a remote school like Hong Ji could give it to him. It was precisely because of this that Teng Yuan put in great effort after turning over Hong Ji's encampment.
Teng Yuan bet, he was risking his future on Hong Ji.
"However, even though each vassal state has specific laws that limit the number of private soldiers of each family family, the family family can always think of alternative methods, such as raising bandits as soldiers, as well, building and stockpiling weapons and armor in the deep mountain fortress, once. The situation has changed. In no time at all, this noble family will be able to arm a powerful armored force."
Hongji opened the metal detector and found nearly 1,008 weapons and 508 armors piled up in the warehouse. From the analysis of the metal oxide layer on the protective surface of this weapon, the manufacture of this protective weapon has lasted for at least several years.
"Truly intentional ..."
Hongji could not help but sigh at the patience of these family members. In princely countries where iron ore is strictly controlled, it took several years to save this property through smuggling, smuggling, and misrepresentation of loss. And now everything here is cheaper for him.
completing the examination of the armory, and Teng Yuan finally brought Hong Ji to check the accounts in the hut.
Hong Ji was generally satisfied with everything before.The foundation materials of the hut were good, though, especially the more than 50 blacksmiths and tools for smelting and ironing were enough to support the hut from the advancement of ancient feudal civilization to the steam advancement of civilization within a month.
However, a good situation seemed to end abruptly when it came to the internal affairs of the cottage.
Hongji held in his hands the elaborate and long accounts of Teng Yuan recorded in the ancient writings of this era, and it took him almost half a minute to change the thick accounts from beginning to end.
The intelligent core with super computing power can easily find the internal account problems of the cottage.
"From this account, the amount of money looted by Shanzhai in the last six months was huge, but the income, expenses, and balance were clearly not matched ... Teng Yuan, explain."
Hong Ji did not leave the account book, but saw him flipping through the accounts casually, and at the same time, he asked Teng Yuan a question in a cold voice.
"Yes ~~ Yes!" Hearing Hong Ji's question, Teng Yuan's voice clearly shook. Clearly, he did not expect Hong Ji to see the matter so quickly.
After sorting through his thoughts a little, he raised the language silently, and Teng Yuan immediately explained the reason.
It turned out that this cottage was kept in secret by the Xiao clan, and most of the treasures obtained from the looting of the cottage would be confiscated by the Xiao clan, naturally the Xiao clan would not appreciate the money. www.uukanshu.com does the same to strengthen cottage control.
also to strengthen the control of the cottage. The Xiao family would send people to transport the loot back to the Xiao family once in a while, and at the same time bring back food, salt, medicine, and other materials. necessary for the survival of the people in the cottage when they return.
Just before Hong Ji entered the hut, Chu Yi's wife, Xiao Ruyi, had returned to the Xiao family with the money that the hut had looted for almost half a year. According to the plan, when Xiao Ruyi returned from the Xiao family, she would bring enough wheat for half a year in the hut to supplement the current grain shortage in the hut.
But now that Hong Ji had killed Xiao Rulie and stolen the control of the cottage, that was tantamount to taking food from the tiger's mouth.
The survival of the cottage depended on the supply of materials from the Xiao family. Now the entire cottage had enough food for half a month. It could be said that the situation in the cottage was known to the Xiao family. The Xiao family wanted to finish their hut without even taking out an army, all it needed was to cut off the food supply in the hut. After half a month, most of the people in the cottage had to starve to death.
In the Northern Territory, which had been struggling for many years, food was extremely valuable. Except for a family like the Xiao family, it was impossible for ordinary people to get much food.
Room leaks occur due to rain at night. Suddenly, someone leaned against Chu Qi's waist quietly and quietly bowed in his ear and said something calmly.
But Chu Qi, who was originally quite clear, suddenly changed his face after hearing this person's report.
I saw him hurriedly take a step forward and arch his hand towards Hong Ji with a heavy expression: "Master, sir, just got word that two of them had released the two pigeons post in the hut without permission, fearing that it was Xiao. I reported to Xiao!"
"Hissing!"
All the bandit leaders on the scene took a cold breath when they heard what Chu Yi said, and they all said inwardly: something bad!
