After a few sunny days, the snow fell again, and the north wind stirred up the clouds and snow, and the weather became colder, but it was a good thing for the development of Dongzhou.

The clouds of dusk and twilight were low, the snowflakes were scattered in the air, the heavy fortress of iron blue was squatting on the hilly cliffs, and the rows of spiritual tea were cultivated on the slopes, and below were the emerging towns, just outside the tea castle in the woods of the mountain road leading to the city, and the snow fell on the treetops, about to be poured on the two people passing by, but they all gently turned to avoid it.

Shallow footprints were left behind the two of them, the man was wearing aristocratic clothes, the woman was wearing a colorful skirt under the green jacket on her upper body, and a man and a woman were wearing thin clothes that were rare in this season, showing cultivation.

This is since the inspection of Ye Qing and Li Niang, they came to this important military town again in a month.

The mountain road is located in the northwest corner, secluded and deep, Ye Qing stood still, looking at this important town, not seen in January, more prosperous, is the establishment of the huàn office, a large number of "hunters" have begun to act, this has changed - this month the force of the huàn has been expanded to all the big cities, strengthening the "Hope Port - Xiangquan City - Tea Castle" front-line force.

However, the great policy had not yet been carried out, and once the Yingzhou fleet arrived, the population of the village could be relocated, and dwellings and outer walls were built around a large area of warehouses to further enrich the county seat.

This benefit is not only in terms of military value, but also in terms of economic improvement and popularity, that is, some villages and towns located on this line are retained to prepare for the laying of railways in the spring.

"The Xianmen coalition army has won a great victory on the Eastern Front, and the territory has expanded outward...... "Li Niang saw Ye Qing pacing, introduced, and added her own opinions: "When the snow melts in spring, the army will stop this round of expansion, and in the past twenty days, it will continue to capture the city-states and savage lairs, annihilating and capturing countless enemies ......"

"A lot of prisoners?" Ye Qing groaned, and said with interest: "Talk to the front line, don't kill it first, I'll buy it with money." ”

Still buying?

Li Niang opened her mouth, speechless about this local tyrant's behavior, agreed, and reminded euphemistically: "Well, the number may be 100,000, what about the batch price?"

"It's the same as the price standard of the huàn. ”

Li Niang suddenly felt distressed: "It's too expensive...... It's a bit worthless, this is a large-scale purchase, counting the freight, five one or two they will also agree, in previous years, it was all about killing the young and strong, expelling the old and weak and leaving them to fend for themselves, and they didn't make a penny. ”

"Don't be too stingy, it's all your own people, and a win-win situation together will last for a long time...... If I want the fame of this huàn to spread outside the territory, I can't spare this money. ”

Ye Qing said very richly, and looked back at her: "By the way, I will pay you a salary and a monthly salary when I go back, and I see that you often help your fellow families, and there is no balance." ”

"Shimen has given me ...... Well, well. ”

Li Niang sighed and didn't speak, she understood the meaning in her heart, and secretly wondered that she didn't have any resistance, Donghai attached great importance to the cultivation of loyalty to her master, and the stalker man on Banshan Island dared to say this to her, and directly beat him and buried him in the snow, so that he could calm down.

"I ...... I took the money, and I can't do something that is contrary to the interests of the master......" She was excited, thought of something, and reminded the lord: "I remember telling a story to the true monarch......"

Ye Qing walked in front and waved his hand lazily: "You know, you don't like men......"

"Alas?" Liniang's face turned red, she actually wanted to say that her aunt had suffered a loss, and reminded her not to make it difficult for her to buy, but it seemed that Zhenjun had misunderstood, so she swallowed the words in her stomach.

Ye Qing sighed in her heart, women are always entangled in the issue of relationship position, but they don't say it verbally, and they are always honest physically.

When this has nothing to do with Fengyue, he has not been forced or seduced, he has always maintained the identity of seniors and juniors, and he works hard for this territory on weekdays.

But there are many kinds of emotions in this world, and it is not only the love between men and women that can infect people, for this female cultivator raised in Dongzhou, probably only this homeland can move her in addition to cultivation.

In the past, this kind of loyalty was reflected in the mission of the master, but as the new territory showed its prototype little by little, unconsciously, the position of this Yang God Female Cultivator had begun to change to herself, but she was still unconscious, but it was also very interesting.

The snow fell silently, and the mountain road was a little slippery, which was nothing to the two people who were interviewed privately by Weifu, and soon arrived in the emerging small town below.

In fact, it is not a private visit to Weifu, Ye Qing has not yet recovered the real person of Lingchi, and he will not ignore his own safety, and Li Niang will not allow him to run too far alone with his diligent guard, just take a walk under the tea castle, get in touch with the people, and see the situation of the Huàn office.

The huàn is built on a small square, and the functional building itself is similar to the configuration of the Hope Port Huàn, and the warehouse area is smaller than the one in comparison, which is related to the demand for the flow of people, and many Qi refining layer Dao soldiers and magicians with the wooden sign of "trainee hunter" on their chests are in and out of this small square, going out with rice noodles and other magic talisman supplies, and transporting furs, logs, live animals, wild people, etc. back.

Logs and furs were piled up in warehouses to prepare for the further expansion of the city and the arrival of migrants, and the furs were sent back to Hope Port every few days with the convoy to trade with the ships of the mainland coastal forces that came to the port to obtain some supplies and displaced people.

Such a simple export-oriented economic form has taken shape, making a military town such as Chabao popular, further providing further guarantee for the security of the entire territory's defense line, and more importantly, the role of cohesion, as well as strengthening the East China Sea Economic Circle to tie the major forces to the chariot of Shangdongzhou......

and a series of complex and far-reaching influences, all of which are imperceptibly carried out, and they will burst out in one fell swoop as long as they receive the support of Ying Xiang in the spring.

When that doesn't happen until the Chinese New Year, for now, the absorption of the population can only be expanded through the guò savages, so Ye Qing paid more attention to the hunters' harvest of the savages, and pulled a few young first- and second-level magician teams and asked, "Seeing that you have taken on the task of hunting savages, how has the harvest been recently?"

The sorcerer led by "You ......" glanced at him, and he couldn't see the cultivation, but when he looked at the girl monk again, his face suddenly changed slightly...... What a powerful nun!

He and several companions were all children of the Dongzhou Xiuxian family, and they were accustomed to fearing the strong, so they bowed down and said to the two: "Back to the two real people, there were a few thrills in hunting savages, and it was very dangerous to be close to them, so they could only form a large team to participate, but in the past few days, they have begun to provide some basic offensive and defensive talismans at a low price, which can be regarded as a guarantee for us low-level magicians." ”

"Yes, we can divide into small teams to hunt these days, two or three magicians with a dozen Qi training warriors, echo each other when hunting, and then gather into a team when needed, and the efficiency and harvest are much improved......"

Ye Qing listened to it, seeing that they were anxious to harvest, he didn't delay the future of others, smiled and waved his hand: "Be careful on the road, the points can't be redeemed, and people's safety is the most important." ”

Li Niang listened behind him, with a strange look on her little face...... Zhenjun's words are so false.

She followed Ye Qing to the back of the storehouse area that contained the savages, and after showing her identity, she went inside, and saw that there were constantly savages coming.

Because the tea castle is the most frontline, it has captured the most savage slaves, accounting for more than eighty percent of the savage acquisitions of the three major exchanges, and the number of savages has reached two thousand, officially opening the scale of assimilation, which is also the reason why Ye Qing personally came here to inspect.

Two thousand is not too much, but the number of savages will usher in tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands, and the assimilation effect, he must see it with his own eyes to rest assured.

The slave camp burned a brazier to keep warm, and in the first round of dangerous retorts, the Taoist language talisman was very effective, and the steward from Hope Hong Kong led the team to demonstrate, holding the 'Han' character rune and saying a savage language, with food in one hand and a sword in the other, screening and cleaning the various savage tribes - those who did not accept it were beheaded, and those who obeyed were sent to work in the slave camps further back.

This slave camp was not only a place of work, but also a place of initial assimilation, where rations of food and rest were provided every day, as well as half an hour of learning Chinese characters...... Or brainwashing opportunities.

"Most of the savages don't know how to lie and won't hide their feelings, and they don't seem to have developed this kind of civilization yet, so the ferocious savages can be killed in the first round. ”

The commander of the tea castle who presided over the domestication introduced it like this, and took Ye Qing and Li Niang into the back: "But for the sake of safety, it is still the same as the lord taught me to carry out sinicization education...... By the way, my lord, Han is also a dynasty in history?"

"It's been a long time, and I'm looking for an opportunity to form a small feudal state. ”

Ye Qing smiled and said, as if they are the relics of the imperial dynasty, like Zhou Ling, her family is the legacy of the former Qian Dynasty, and recently often come and go to the mansion to worship Qian Xingyun, probably with the intention of finding a place to restore a vassal country, which is very common in the imperial veins, their strength is deeper than that of ordinary county lords and cross-state wealthy families, but they are not as good as the real feudal country, and they are not up to the same level.

The commander of the thousand said 'oh' seriously, followed the hint given by Ye Qing, and said, "The lord will definitely become the king of Han......"

It's not that he is easy to deceive, but in this million-year history of the world, too many dynasties and vassal states have been born, ordinary people can't remember dynasties too far away, and there are more weeds in the vassal kingdoms, even the average prince can't figure out whether there is a Han kingdom in history......

It is very likely that there is, the name is too easy to repeat, and the fame of the Hanhou Mansion is far from reaching the distant Dongzhou.

The snow in the camp was so clean that it was evident that the living conditions of the slaves were guaranteed, and the study quarters were arranged separately, and the houses seemed to be larger.

When they arrived at a brightly lit classroom, with wooden tables and chairs in the big wooden house, the steward who had been temporarily trained by Liniang as a teacher sat on the podium, teaching the thirty savage students below, most of them teenage boys and girls, who were more suitable for inculcating a new culture.

Shaobu is a relatively intelligent and flexible adult savage, and he may not be able to learn much after completing his work tasks every day, but he is an activist who is close to him.

The distinction between "Chinese people and savages" may be disdainful of these savage students in the hearts of teachers, but the salary and rules make him not show his performance and fulfill his daily teaching tasks conscientiously.

Savages don't know how to distinguish between truth and falsehood, can't see the hidden disdain of alien teachers, because of some special reward reason, they are very active in learning, just after class, there are many savages even take the initiative to bow to the "Han" god card, class is more active in learning language and Chinese characters.

On the occasion of the meeting, Ye Qing and Li Niang sat at the back of the classroom and listened to the lesson, observing the assimilation situation.

Born in the same world, although the students are unkempt and dirty, washed and put on Hanfu, there is not much difference in appearance except for a little tanning, but when they learn, they expose the essence of a blank piece of paper, which is really interesting.
