In the early morning, a ray of sunlight penetrated into the cabin through the window of the wooden house.

Zheng Liang slowly opened his eyes, raised his left hand and looked at his watch. The time is still early, presumably summer is coming, and the daytime is relatively long, but as a lord, one must lead by example, especially when the foundation is not yet established It's steady time, so it's time to get up.

Slowly sat up from the tatami, and glanced at the surrounding furnishings. Last night, because of rushing to make some important objects overnight, I didn't take a serious look at this new living room in a hurry.It can be seen that compared with the previous mud-wood hut, this wooden hut is a pure wooden hut. Even the floor is made of rotten wood, and the area is more than four times that of the original hut.This living room used to belong to Dalang Banshi, but now including this living room and the entire courtyard has become Zhengliang's new residence.

"Your Highness, are you up?" Hearing the voice inside, a tender female voice came from outside.

"Well, you come in," Zheng Liang responded.

"Squeak", the wooden door was pulled open, and a beautiful and pure girl with delicate features, about 13 years old, walked in with her head down.The soft sunlight shone on her fair face, making it look extraordinarily smooth and beautiful.This is the new maid that Xingsuke forced over last night, the number one beauty in the original cottage, Xingsuke's daughter, Tsuru.Masamori also knew that Xingsuke was careful, but he didn't refuse. First of all, when the objects were being made last night, someone was needed to help him. Since it was too late, Matsumiko would not be able to move here to serve Zhengliang until the next day at the earliest. Crane just filled the missing manpower; secondly, even if Zhengliang finally accepted Crane as a concubine according to Kosuke's idea, it was just something for everyone.Xingsuke tried to secure his status through marriage, and Zheng Liang also planned to strengthen his relationship with his subordinates through this method. After all, he lacked family members and samurai relatives.Of course, Masaragi didn't plan to make Tsuru a concubine right away. After all, he had to consider the feelings of Togo Heiji and Kikuhime, and Tsuru was still too young, so he should slowly cultivate his relationship as a maid.

Even after Kosuke's repeated teachings last night, when he really helped Zhengliang put on his clothes, Crane still seemed a little flustered.Especially smelling the masculine breath exuding from Zheng Liang's body, and thinking of the wise and benevolent deeds of the lord and the legends about the envoys that he heard from the surrounding citizens during the day, his heart beat like a deer.Of course, the so-called lord's wise and benevolent deeds were passed on by Zheng Liang deliberately arranged by the patrol team, in order to strengthen the recognition of the lord by the newcomers.Facing such a beautiful woman, Zheng Liang behaved calmly.The one in front of me is just a 13-year-old little loli, what can I think.

After nearly a quarter of an hour of tidying up, Zheng Liang finally got dressed, and after eating the breakfast that He had prepared earlier, Zheng Liang hurriedly led the two surnames to the gate of the cottage.After arriving at the destination, all the ashigaru except for the guard missions were there. Zhengliang glanced at the neatly lined up team, shouted, "Let's go!", and then began to lead the team along the village outside the cottage to start the morning. run.The patrol team led by the two small surnames also began to run slowly with the ashigaru brigade in front.The leaders of the village walked out of the house one after another, and looked at the team of the new lord curiously. They were shocked when they saw the uniform pace and the bold slogans during the march.Seeing everyone's expressions, Zheng Liang smiled in his heart. What he wanted was this effect, which would not only further deepen the fear of the new lords, but also completely wipe out the minds of some lords who still had a wait-and-see mentality. In front of the lord's strength, he still obediently followed the lord.

After the morning run, the temporarily selected captain of the ashigaru team continued to lead the ashigaru training, while Masatoshi ordered the two surnames to inform the relevant personnel to participate in the evaluation in the meeting hall of the lord's mansion, and he returned to the mansion's deliberations accompanied by Tsuda Hiromune Church.Soon everyone rushed over.Masara sat kneeling on a wooden slum slightly above the ground facing the gate of the meeting hall. Togo Heiji, Onishi Kuniji, Tsuda Hiromune, Kosuke, and Chujiro sat kneeling on both sides in front of the wooden couch. Shinsuke is convening manpower to carry out work according to the results of yesterday's discussion.

Zheng Liang scanned the crowd seriously, and then took the lead to say, "Everyone, relying on everyone's efforts this time, I have gained a lot. Here, I would like to express my deep gratitude again." Zheng Liang bowed slightly, and then continued, "Now the Luo family The power of the people can barely be called a small local tyrant in the East Matsuura area, so the management of the territory needs to gradually return to normal. To this end, first of all, please accept the following appointment."

"Togo Heiji, based on his performance during this period of time, he was promoted to be the general servant of the family, responsible for the two positions of government affairs and honke Yu, responsible for the land's farming, civil affairs and paperwork of the family, with an annual salary of 45 shi." Zhengliang looked at Dongxiang Heiji slightly Smile to show appreciation.Dongxiang Heiji gave a retainer salute to Masara with a calm expression, his slightly trembling hands showed his inner excitement.Everyone cast congratulatory glances. As the oldest retainer in Luo's family and a member of Luo's family, everyone had no objection to this.

"Onishi Guozhi, he was promoted to the general of the family servant, and took the two positions of business administration and Wujianbantou (equivalent to the modern reconnaissance leader), responsible for the external communication and investigation work of the territory, with an annual salary of 40 shi." Zheng Liang turned his head to look To the other side of the Onishi Kingdom rule. "Yes, Your Highness, I will swear to follow Your Highness to the death." Onishi Guozhi immediately prostrated himself on the ground.

"Tsuda Hiromune", Masara continued to appoint with a calm face.

"Yes, Your Highness," Tsuda Hiromune couldn't wait to bow down on the ground.

"Promoted to serve as the general of the family, and lead the post of public security, responsible for the security of the territory, the security of the territory, and the training of ashigaru. The annual salary is 40 shi."

"That's great, Your Highness, now you can eat freely, the food provided by the territory before was not enough," Tsuda Hiromune said carelessly, stroking his stomach. "Russy, Hiromune, you are now the servant of the family, please be careful with your words and deeds, and don't be rude in front of the lord." Before Zhengliang could speak, Togo Heiji immediately pointed at Tsuda Hiromune and scolded , Onishi Kuniji next to Tsuda Hiromune also turned his face to look at the other side, which means that I don't know this person.

"Your Highness, please forgive Lord Guangzong's crime of rudeness. After the servants go down, Lord Guangzong's etiquette must be improved," Togo Heiji pleaded on the ground.Guangzong over there heard the etiquette taught by Togo Heiji himself, his face immediately became colorful, and he looked at Zhengliang with a bitter gourd expression, begging for mercy.Seeing Guangzong's expression, Zhengliang felt amused, but he didn't intend to let him go, pretending to be serious and said, "Well, I'll leave Heiji to you. Guangzong, you have to ask Heiji about etiquette. ,do you know?"

Guangzong saw that the last savior was ineffective, so he shrugged his big bald head and acted like a wronged daughter-in-law, obediently promised.

"Fortunately, I have contributed a lot in this battle. I was hired as the ashigaru general of my family, and I was in charge of managing all the materials of my family. Heiji Togo was in charge of it. The annual salary was 35 shi. However," Zheng Liang paused slightly. , and then said sternly, "Xingzhu, you have to make sure that the warehouse of your family does not lose even a single grain for no reason, otherwise you will be demoted to a farmer."Zheng Liang had to beat this guy who was always playing tricks. As far as Zheng Liang knew, this guy used to make a lot of money when he helped Banshi manage a large amount of grain and grass.

"Yes, Your Highness, as long as a piece of miscellaneous grain is lost in the warehouse for no reason, I will immediately raise my head to see His Highness as a token of apology." Xingsuke shuddered, suddenly remembering that the lord is a murderous devil without blinking an eye, and immediately kowtowed and said.

"Then, I'm looking forward to your performance." Zhengliang nodded slightly and said, "Chujiro led the people to surrender first, and assisted the family to quickly clean up the cottage, and contributed to the rapid pacification of the cottage. Weapons are in charge of the forging and management of weapons and daily utensils in the family. The annual salary is 35 shi. At the same time, I told Youbingwei and Shinsuke that the family hired them as the head of the ashigaru group, and were responsible for the daily construction and woodwork of the family. For tool making work, the annual salary is 25 shi, so that they can feel at ease and do their own work.”

"Yes, Your Highness." Chujiro is very excited now. Although his income is not as much as when he was a bandit, his status has improved a lot. In the past, he was forced to wander around as a wild warrior because of family inheritance problems. In the end, he even became a bandit in order to survive. , and now he suddenly became a powerful retainer, and his status was even higher than that of his previous family, so he was very satisfied.Moreover, the Patriarch of this family is so young, just from yesterday's battle performance and the scene of guiding the craftsmen, it can be seen that it is by no means comparable to ordinary tycoons. Given time, maybe he can go further, and he can also gain something by then.So far, Chujiro has firmly decided to follow Masara.
