Chapter 24: The Lady's Voice
After completing the transfer, Ouyang Shuo left the barracks. Next, the daily training of the crossbow cavalry, the patrol of the territory, and the garrison of the North Dusk Salt Field, these specific affairs, he was not ready to meddle.
With Shi Wansui, a famous general, in the barracks, and a fierce young general like Lin Yi, as well as the maturing fire commanders, he was very relieved. What he has to do is to fully delegate power, so that the fire captains can be tempered and grow faster.
Of course, he will not let go of the most core personnel appointment and dismissal power. This is the core element of his influence on the troops. If he really lets it go, it will be difficult to say whether the army will recognize him as a lord in the future.
That's the beauty of the game. NPCs are not rigid stats, they all have their own feelings. The more advanced the NPC, the more intelligent it is.
Take Shi Wansui as an example, as a royal-level historical figure, in this virtual world, his experience and cognition even surpass Ouyang Shuo as a player. Although subject to the dual restrictions of system rules and historical background, Shi Wanzai will not disobey Ouyang Shuo's orders. But if Ouyang Shuo's actions were too absurd to convince him. Then, he is likely to do things and work hard.
Their loyalty is not something that can be summed up simply in the attribute column, although they will not betray, but they will also fight for power and profit, and they will also draw circles.
On the other hand, it is precisely because of such a high degree of realism. Lords can use this platform to get full exercise. After all, the cost of making mistakes in a game is much less than in reality.
Walking out of the barracks, Ouyang Shuo began to think about what to do next. Everything in the territory is running in an orderly manner, and it is firmly moving towards a third-level village. The financial problems that plagued him before were also completely solved in this operation to exterminate the Liukou camp.
Thinking of this, it reminded him of the architectural drawings in the storage bag. There are a total of five architectural drawings in his storage bag, which are the architectural drawings of the stable, the architectural drawings of the martial arts hall, the architectural drawings of the medical hall, the architectural drawings of the tailor's shop, and the architectural drawings of the weapon workshop.
Among them, the stables and the weapon workshop are the basic buildings of the third-level village. Ouyang Shuo took a look at the construction conditions of the two buildings, and unfortunately found that only stables could be built at present.
[Stable]: A place where horses are raised, also known as a stable. Construction conditions: Drawings of the construction of stables, 200 units of wood, 50 units of stone. Construction time: one day.
[Weapon Workshop]: A comprehensive weapon and equipment manufacturing workshop that can craft ordinary weapons and armor. Construction conditions: high-level blacksmith, weapon workshop construction blueprint, 400 units of wood, 200 units of stone. Construction time: two days.
The weapon workshop requires a high-level blacksmith, which is currently not available in Shanhai Village. The only blacksmith, Li Tiezhu, was only promoted to an intermediate blacksmith not long ago, and it is difficult to be promoted to a senior blacksmith again in a short period of time. Fortunately, there is still time, Ouyang Shuo is looking forward to the day when he can directly brush out a senior blacksmith.
In the basic buildings of the second-level villages, there are still architectural drawings of ancestral halls and private schools. Now that he had the money, Ouyang Shuo rushed directly to the primary market and spent 10 gold coins to buy the two architectural drawings. In this way, all the basic buildings of the second-level village, except for the private school, can start construction.
In the five days prior to this, the construction department had completed the construction of the arrow tower, the primary mining site, and 15 residential courtyards.
Back in the courtyard, walk into the administrative office. It happened that Zhao Dewang, deputy director of the construction department, was in the office, and Ouyang Shuo handed him all the architectural drawings and instructed him to build the five buildings as soon as possible. In addition, he did not forget to specifically instruct Zhao Dewang to build a stable for the Black Whirlwind alone next to the courtyard.
In the afternoon, Ouyang Shuo went to visit the two militiamen who were seriously injured yesterday. After being treated by Dr. Song, the two have been out of danger of life.
One of the young men, only twenty years old, was called Song Yi. During the battle, two fingers of his left hand were chopped off by the rogue, leaving him with a lifelong disability. When Ouyang Shuo went to see him, the little guy couldn't hold back and cried like a child.
The other was a thirty-year-old middle-aged man named Li Tie, who was shot in the right eye by Liukou's bow and arrow, and was completely blind.
This is a real man, when Ouyang Shuo looked at him. His mood has calmed down, and he can still talk and laugh with him. Half-serious, half-jokingly said: "My lord, even if I have only one eye, I can still kill the enemy." ”
Ouyang Shuo's heart was sour, "Well, I believe in you." Not on the front line, though. Soon, when the territory is raised to the township level, a special territorial security team will be established. At that time, I will arrange you and Song Yi into the security team. Now, your task is to heal your wounds. When the injury is healed, don't waste your martial arts. I don't want to recruit you into the security team when the time comes, but I won't even be able to catch a thief. ”
Li Tie immediately said loudly: "Don't worry, my lord. I will never disgrace you or the militia when the time comes. ”
"Yes, I believe in you. Take care of your injuries, I won't disturb your recuperation, remember my words, and don't have any psychological burden. I will take your credit to heart. When the time is right, you will be compensated enough. ”
"Thank you for your attention." After Ouyang Shuo's reassurance, coupled with his promise, the two of them felt like they had taken a reassuring pill, and they completely stabilized.
When I returned to the Lord's Palace, I saw two women chatting in the corridor of the west wing of the courtyard.
"Sister Gu, we've all been here for a day. The adults didn't say anything about how to arrange us, and they didn't know what he looked like. "It was a young and beautiful woman, in the prime of her life. Although the clothes she wears are made of ordinary linen, the workmanship is extremely exquisite, which sets off her temperament more innocently.
"Little Nizi, what's the matter?! I heard that our adults are a handsome and beautiful boy, what else can you think of it?! "The other one is a middle-aged young woman, dressed very plainly, without powder.
The young woman was teased by the other party like this, and immediately disagreed, and said coquettishly: "Sister, don't make fun of others." Although Qing'er is young, she also knows the truth of knowing the kindness of retribution. The adults rescued me from the hands of the rogue, and Qing'er only felt grateful, but she didn't dare to think anything wrong. ”
"Who's to say it isn't. You don't know what kind of life I had in the camp before. It's just unbearable. "The middle-aged young woman is obviously also deeply touched." But I've heard about it. Lord Cui, the chief officer of the Material Reserve Division of our territory, was originally in the wilderness like us. Adults feel that her life is miserable, and they cherish her talent. Not only does Master Cui regard him as a righteous sister, but also entrusts him with important tasks. Lord Cui did not live up to the trust of the adults, and took care of the material reserve department in an orderly manner, which won everyone's respect. ”
"Well, Qing'er has also heard a little. Sister Cui is not only beautiful, but also so capable. can make Qing'er worship tight. "The young woman is obviously still a girl, and she worships Yingyu as an idol.
"Hey, little Nizi, don't be presumptuous. Your talent for tailoring is unheard of by my sister. Shanhai Village is also a place of outstanding people, and your future achievements will definitely not be under Master Cui. "The middle-aged young woman is very knowledgeable.
At this moment, Ouyang Shuo was standing at the gate of the courtyard, his face full of embarrassment. From their conversation, he had already guessed that the two in front of him should be Gu Sanniang, the senior chef and Mu Qingsi, the senior tailor that Gu Xiuwen told him in the morning. Unintentionally, when he heard the private conversation of his daughter's family, he was neither advancing nor retreating.
"Ahem!" Ouyang Shuo coughed deliberately, and then walked into the courtyard unhurriedly.
"Yikes!" Turning his head to see Ouyang Shuo, Mu Qingsi's face immediately turned red. However, the middle-aged young woman was calm and asked uncertainly, "But the adults are back?!" Folk woman Gu Sanniang, please say hello to the adults! ”
"It's me. Earlier, I was busy with affairs, and I neglected the two, please forgive me. ”
The women were terrified. I was fortunate to be rescued by adults, and the women were grateful. Gu Sanniang glanced at the newly recognized sister beside her, and saw that she had not yet come to her senses, standing aside, her face was full of shame, and she couldn't speak, so she pulled her sleeve with her hand.
Originally, Mu Qingsi was not such a shy girl, but the conversation with Gu Sanniang just now was too private. Suddenly, Ouyang Shuo, the protagonist of the conversation, appeared in front of him, naturally shy. I don't know when the adults came here or how much they heard.
I was nervous in my heart, and I was shy. By the time Ouyang Shuo opened his mouth to speak, his mood had not adjusted for a while. Gu Sanniang pulled her sleeves before she reacted, and hurriedly bowed and saluted, "Mu Qingsi, please be safe!" ”
Ouyang Shuo naturally didn't understand the amorous feelings, pretended not to see her predicament, and said gently: "Miss Mu is well, can you still get used to it?" ”
"Thank you for your attention, everything is fine." Mu Qingsi began to stabilize her emotions, "Qingsi thanked the adults for saving their lives. As he spoke, he was going to kneel down for Ouyang Shuo.
Where did Ouyang Shuo allow, hurriedly stepped forward, helped her up, and said earnestly: "Miss Mu, don't be like this, I can't see this." I'm obsessed with how old the eldest girl is, and if the girl doesn't dislike me, she can treat me as a brother. For this little girl who is only eighteen years old, Ouyang Shuo doesn't feel too much pity.
Mu Qingsi's face instantly turned red again, thinking that Ouyang Shuo would say this because he heard their conversation, so he hurriedly shook his head and said, "Qingsi's status is low, I don't dare to have such extravagant hopes!" ”
Ouyang Shuo waved his hand, "That's a mistake. All the villagers in our Shanhai Village, who have not had a bumpy past. However, as long as we join Shanhai Village, we are a family, and there is no distinction between high and low. Let everything in the past pass away with the wind. Everyone in Shanhai Village, each with their own ability, each performing their own duties, and supporting themselves. Therefore, the girl must not be presumptuous. If the girl doesn't agree, then I'm going to be angry. Ouyang Shuo deliberately kept a straight face and looked at Mu Qingsi.
The little girl's eyes were slightly red when Ouyang Shuo said this, and she called out obediently, "Big brother! ”
Ouyang Shuo replied and said happily: "That's right." In Shanhai Village, don't have any psychological burden. Big brother has been fascinated by your tailoring skills for a long time. ”
After appeasing Mu Qingsi, Ouyang Shuo turned his head to Gu Sanniang and said, "Mrs. Gu's cooking skills, I have heard Xiuwen praise it. In this way, at this stage, the lady is temporarily in charge of the diet of the courtyard. When the territory builds a restaurant in the future, I must ask my wife to take charge of it. ”
Gu Sanniang smiled, "Sanniang is arranged by adults!" ”
