I built a fairy city in troubled times

Chapter 5 Harvest
[Name: Xia Ming]

[Affiliated force: Huangcheng]

[Subjects: 920 people (talent +1.4)]

[Talent: 7+14 (ordinary level, medium talent)]

[Cultivation: Bone Forging Realm (98%)]

[Kung Fu: Imperial Kung Fu "Three Emperors Reflecting the World"]

[Congratulations to the host, for discovering Baili Yunqi, a subordinate of Cyan Fate, and obtaining the arrangement method of the small spirit gathering array (after the array is arranged, practice inside, and the cultivation speed will be three times that of outside)]

After the information appeared, Xia Ming's eyes turned and showed a little joy.

There were more than 4000 refugees.

And with the increase in the number of refugees, even ordinary people have good cultivation talents, at least reaching the number two. In terms of qualifications, according to Xia Ming's understanding during this period, as long as they are willing to practice, they can already He served as a centurion in the army.

His own talent has directly increased to an average level of talent.

Moreover, there is also a way to arrange the small spirit gathering array.

Even within the Immortal Cultivation Sect, there is none. It is said that they rely on the rich spiritual energy in the Cave Heaven Paradise to practice.

If he had this Spirit Gathering Array, and if the warriors under his command also practiced in the Spirit Gathering Array, their strength would definitely increase rapidly.

Within a short period of time, a powerful army should be able to be forged.

It is really worth taking in these more than 1 people.

Isn't it just spending money? Anyway, I still have a few hundred thousand taels, which is enough for the time being.

Moreover, as long as your cultivation level improves, will you still be short of money?

However, the Hou's family troops need to be increased. More than 2 people are too many even for a county.

Just relying on those people brought by the Hou Mansion is not enough.

Then, Xia Ming walked out of the house, looked at the guard guarding the door and said, "Call your Commander Zhang Mu here and tell him that I have something to see him!"

"Yes, Lord Marquis!" The guard who received the order did not dare to hesitate and ran out immediately.

A moment later, Zhang Mu appeared in the backyard.

At this time, Xia Ming was already sitting in the pavilion in the garden. He was drinking the sour plum soup sent from the kitchen with his clothes open. The summer in Yunzhou was very difficult and very hot and humid.

Even though it's dusk now, it still feels stuffy.

"Master Hou, are you looking for me?"

"Well, I have something to tell you!" Xia Ming placed the jade bowl filled with sour plum soup on the stone table, then pointed to the stone bench next to him and motioned for Zhang Mu to sit down.

After seeing the other party sit down, the maid beside him poured a bowl of sour plum soup for Zhang Mu.

At this time, the other party's data appeared in front of Xia Ming.

[Name: Zhang Mu]

[Favorability: 95% (loyal and willing to sacrifice his life for the host)]

[Skills: Xuan-level low-grade "Hunyuan Jin" and "Greed Wolf Sword Technique"]

[Cultivation: True Yuan Realm]

[Fate: Cyan (Tiger in the Cage)]

[Talent: 8.1+1.4 (Ordinary level (low posture)]

The talent has indeed increased, but it is still inferior, but it is also very good.

After all, this was the Great Xia Dynasty, not a place for cultivating immortals in the Cave Heaven Paradise.

Then, Xia Mingcai said slowly, "Today we have recruited another group of refugees. I am going to select some people from our fiefdom to join the Marquis's manor to act as a family soldier. What do you think?"

Naturally, Zhang Mu fully agreed with this proposal.

However, he then carefully said, "I wonder how many more chapters the Marquis plans to add?"

According to the rules of the court, the Marquis usually only has a party of 300 people, which is the limit.

But now that Xia Ming was exiled and the court was in chaos, there was no need to care about this.

After Xia Ming thought for a moment, he slowly said, "Let's have 2000 people. We are adding 2000 people. As for the equipment, ordinary leather armor and weapons will be enough. The elixirs will be on par with Mo Dao soldiers, and the skills will be taught normally. Wait. When you have money in the future, you can just change your equipment!"

If Xia Ming were to directly add another two thousand Mo Dao soldiers now, it would naturally be impossible. To be honest, in the current state, they simply could not afford to support him.

But ordinary infantry is still no problem. "Master Marquis, how should we determine the wages of these 2000 people!"

Now, the 300 Mo Daobing soldiers receive ten taels of silver every month.

Although these 2000 people can't afford so many, they can't help but give.

"Let's settle for three taels of silver for now!"

Xia Ming picked up the bowl and took a sip of the sour plum soup and said, "This is not a small amount. The imperial army only has two taels of silver per month."

"Isn't that too much? If we add Mo Daobing, our monthly expenses will be tens of thousands of taels!"

Zhang Mu really hopes to get adequate treatment for his subordinates, but it is really difficult for the Hou Mansion now.

That's why I can't help but worry.

Nowadays, grain transport teams come back from outside every day, and when they go out, they bring nothing but money.

Even if the Hou Mansion still has some foundation now, it is not spent like this.

However, as his voice fell.

Xia Ming waved his hand and said, "Just do as I say. These people are working for us, and we really can't learn from that foolish king. As for the money, I will find a way when the time comes!"

After he finished speaking, Zhang Mu no longer insisted. Anyway, he was in charge of leading troops, not money.

Just let Baili Zhe have a headache.

"Okay, then just do as the Marquis said, I'll go back and select the songs right away!"

Zhang Mu bowed and left.

As for the formation, Zhang Mu didn't mention it, setting up a small spirit gathering array with ten spirit stones.

There are also immortal cultivators in Daxia. Although they are very few, as a marquis family, they still have some channels to contact them.

For example, the Qunxian Building in Daxia was opened by immortal cultivators, and it sold things that were not available in the outside world.

However, the price is very expensive.

Most people really can't afford it.

Even if it is the Hou Mansion, it is very difficult to support it.

There are naturally spiritual stones inside, but the price of each piece is several hundred thousand taels of silver. This price is simply not something that Xia Ming can afford now.

Therefore, what he has to do now is to improve his strength as soon as possible.

Only when the strength increases can one have the ability to plunder resources.

Therefore, after sending Zhang Mu away, he became the hands-off shopkeeper again.

In addition to occasionally coming out to see the people in the fiefdom and paying attention to the favorability of the people under his command, he just seizes the time to practice.

In a blink of an eye, another half a year has passed.

On this day, Xia Ming was wearing thin clothes and practicing martial arts in the back garden of his mansion. At this time, a golden light glowed on his palms.

Every time he punches, there will be bursts of sonic booms. The moves are wide open and closed, and are unparalleled in subtlety. There is magic in his dominance.

All the guards hid far away because Xia Ming had ordered that no one was allowed to get close to him while he was practicing.

However, if anyone is here, they will find that when Xia Ming is practicing, he will unconsciously release the vague and insignificant pressure of the emperor, which is unbearable for ordinary people.

Just like now, although there was no one around, the surrounding vegetation seemed to be deliberately suppressed, and they couldn't help but bend down.

This is my reaction after I have reached the introductory stage of practicing "Three Emperors Reflecting the World".

As for the boxing technique he practiced, it was also a combat skill. It was called "Yandi Fulong Fist". It is said that this was the boxing technique practiced by Emperor Yan when he was young. When he tasted all kinds of herbs, there were often monsters from the ancient times guarding the elixir. Therefore Emperor Yan took action in anger.

After killing an evil dragon, he created this punch, which was extremely powerful.

"Boom!" When Xia Ming punched in the air, the golden fist landed on a boulder in the distance and shattered it.

A look of satisfaction appeared on his face and he stopped what he was doing.

Then, the data panel was opened again.

Half a year has passed, and the changes in Huangcheng have been huge.
