Chapter 93 Chapter 5 Open Air Meeting

Tang Long's terrified retainers, looking at the muzzles aimed at them from time to time, wiped off their cold sweat while sorting out their ranks, forming a neat line at the gate of the city hall. List. The soldiers who were panicked at first, after seeing the actions of the adults, and knowing from the mouths of those talkative patrol boat soldiers that the terrifying warship above their heads belonged to their lord, So he quickly regained his composure, put on a serious expression, and stood motionless with his head up and chest out. They hope to be favored by the lord, and if they promote themselves to become retainers, then the days after that will be happy.

The vassals who had been living for years finally waited until the bilge of the battleship opened. Under the gaze of tens of thousands of people, hundreds of black shadows with blue flames sprayed from the soles of their feet slowly landed. Seeing these hundreds of mecha fighters, all two or three meters tall, wearing metal mechas and carrying large-caliber thickened cannons, everyone was stunned again. They were in the chaotic galaxy and at the same time they were in the poor Tang family, and they had never seen the latest individual equipment in the universe. But even an idiot who sees such a shocking mech can understand in an instant that these few hundred people alone can kill tens of thousands of people present.

Of course, everyone knew that this was the armament of their lord and lord. After thinking of this, all anxiety disappeared. The retainer thought in his heart: "My lord not only has the most powerful battleship, but also such a powerful individual weapon. My lord's strength is definitely the first in the Tang family. Following such a lord, I will definitely have a bright future." Bright, send! " The soldiers looked at these mechas enviously, wondering whether the lord would equip the army of the entire territory with these weapons? But thinking of the family practice, I believe that these weapons can only be equipped in the troops directly under the lord, right?I am afraid that the soldiers of the lord's retainers like myself can't even touch it.Thinking of this, I have

A little lost, but the soldiers quickly remembered that the lord did not have a direct army, and believed that a direct army would be re-established soon. If I behaved well, the lord might ask the lord to leave me, right? In an instant, the mental outlook of the soldiers went up to a new level, and the soldiers showed their best side. A mecha warrior standing in front of hundreds of mecha warriors stepped forward and took off his helmet, and a handsome young man with black hair appeared in front of the retainers. The vassals who had seen Tang Long's face in the mansion newspaper, immediately fell on the ground and shouted respectfully: "See my lord!"

And those soldiers who could see Tang Long's face but could see the movements of his retainers immediately knelt on one knee and shouted: "See Lord Lord!" Tang Long, who had never been bowed down before, was a little uncomfortable, but he still suppressed the discomfort because he didn't want to lose face in front of his subordinates. So he jumped up, nodded seriously, and said, "Get up." Tang Long's voice had long been picked up by No. 2 Xingling on the battleship's loudspeaker, so not only the entire subfield heard it, but also people in a twenty-kilometer radius could hear it.

Tang Long didn't bother to look at the retainers who got up after thanking them, but said directly: "Peng Wenfeng, have all the officials and soldiers in my territory arrived?" Hearing Tang Long's first words were Peng Wenfeng, all the retainers stared at Peng Wenfeng who stepped out with envious eyes. And because everyone could hear Tang Long's words, all the soldiers directly under Peng Wenfeng proudly showed off to the soldiers around them. Peng Wenfeng knelt on the ground on one knee, and replied respectfully: "Report to my lord, all 233 retainers and 45,200 soldiers have arrived."

Although Tang Long wondered why there were so many family members, he still nodded to signal Peng Wenfeng to step down. Then, after Tang Long glanced at everyone, he said in a cold voice: "Listen up to me, everyone. In this fief, I am your boss! What do I ask you to do?" You have to do what you want, and you must not discount the orders given by Lao Tzu!Those who disobey Lao Tzu's order will have no other result except death!If you don't want to do it, give it to the old man now Get out! " The retainers did not expect Tang Long to be so gentle and handsome, but his words were so rude, he was simply a super big bandit.

And the first thing you say when you meet your retainer is to say such a mean thing, aren't you afraid that the retainer will turn against you?Although the retainers thought so in their hearts, they saw that the mech fighters All the retainers swallowed their saliva and shrank their necks. If people like myself dare to object, I'm afraid there will be a burst of artillery fire from above, right? Seeing that no one was complaining, Tang Long continued: "Since there is no one who wants to quit, well, I will shoot you to death for committing crimes in the future, don't say that I will punish you for not teaching."

Hearing this, everyone's heart skipped a beat. It seems that in the future, things must be carefully considered before they can be done. Seeing the retainers bowing their heads in cold sweat, Tang Long knew that the purpose of the demonstration had been achieved, so he waved his hands, smiled and said kindly: "Okay, let's have a meeting now , everyone sit down where they are. "As he said, he sat cross-legged at the gate of the city hall. Fortunately, this mecha is very flexible, otherwise Tang Long might not be able to sit down. Hearing Tang Long's words, everyone was taken aback. Are we having a meeting outside?

But seeing that Tang Long had already sat down, the retainers had no choice but to sit on the ground frowning. This was the first time that the retainers had dirty their buttocks. The soldiers, on the other hand, didn't have so many worries. After Tang Long gave the order, they imitated Tang Long and sat cross-legged.They were very excited, they did not expect to have the opportunity to participate in the retainer to participate s meeting. The warships in the sky also blocked the sun under Tang Long's signal, making this area in the shade.And those people who heard Tang Long's voice crowded over here curiously.

After a while, the city hall was crowded by the crowd. But I don't know whether these people are of better quality, or they are afraid of being bullied by those retainers. There are so many shortlisted around without making any noise. Although the retainers felt uncomfortable being stared at by so many untouchables like monkeys, they wanted to give Tang Long their opinions. But thinking that any order Tang Long said just now cannot be discounted, and he doesn't know how he will be treated if he raises objections, so he can only endure that uncomfortable feeling. This guy Tang Long belongs to the kind of character that the more people there are, the more excited he gets, so he doesn't feel uncomfortable at all, but feels good! Although those female soldiers were not used to being stared at by so many people, but because they were wearing helmets: they had a protective cover on their hearts, so they could safely protect Tang Long's surroundings. "Who is in charge of finances?" Tang Long asked kindly. The retainers looked at each other, and then shook their heads. The fat man sitting in the front row protruded slightly, then leaned down and said, "My lord, we are each responsible for our own feudal duties. land, so there is no unified financial person in charge. " "Huh? Then who manages my ranches, fishing grounds, and factories?" Tang Long asked again after being stunned for a moment. This time all the retainers lowered their heads, and the fat man still replied, "My lord, the retainers who are in charge of managing these lords' private properties have already died in battle along with the original lord." Tang Long nodded and said, "Alright, since no one is in charge of the territory's finances, let me appoint one." Hearing Tang Long's words, all the retainers raised their heads excitedly, hoping that Tang Long could appoint him. "Yuna, all the finances of the territory will be handed over to you in the future." Tang Long turned his head and said to a mecha warrior.This was discussed by Tang Long and the female soldiers early in the morning. The hearts of the retainers who heard this immediately cooled down. It turned out that the lord wanted to appoint his cronies. Regarding the psychology of his retainers, Tang Long didn't care so much. In the future, his life blood vessel-finance, such an important position, still needs to be held by his own people. The mech warrior took off his helmet and came to Tang Long and nodded, "I obey...my lord." Yuna was planning to call you sir, but she followed the custom, so she also started calling Tang Long lord. up. And No. 2 Xingling had already used the projector on the battleship to broadcast Yuna's image into the sky. When the retainers, soldiers, and people saw that the person in charge of the territory's finances was actually a beautiful woman Suddenly, there was an uproar. The retainers stood up one after another and prepared to protest, but Tang Long snorted coldly, and the guns of the mech warriors aimed at the crowd immediately, and the guns of the sky battleship began to charge with energy. "Hmph, have you forgotten what I just said? I am the boss of this territory, and I can do whatever I want. Do you have any objections to my appointment?" Tang Long stared at him viciously. Looking at these retainers who stood up. Seeing the glowing cannon muzzle, the retainers immediately shrank their heads and sat down sensibly, not even daring to breathe. The soldiers were in an uproar because they were just surprised. In fact, who the lord appoints is the lord's family business. And those people who were just watching the excitement immediately shut up after seeing the threat of those warships, and the timid ones were already preparing to go home. "Listen to me, I don't care whether it's a man or a woman, whether it's a vassal or a commoner, as long as I have the ability, I will serve him as an official, and if I don't, get out!" Tang Long After saying this to everyone, he continued to say to his retainers: "Wen Tao, Jiang Jin, you two are Yuna's deputy, you must do your best to assist Yuna!" The two young vassals whose names had been read climbed out a little puzzled and flattered to thank them. They don't know why the lord who has never met knows his name and knows that he is very good at finances. In fact, this is all thanks to No. 2 Xingling. She walked around the territory of Tang Long's retainers and knew who had what kind of ability.The income of these two retainers is the highest among all retainers. If they are not brought in to help, then who will they be? ? "In order to prevent some retainers from having selfish intentions and pay special attention to their own territory when building the territory, I decided to take back the management rights of all retainers' territories." After Tang Long finished speaking, all the retainers immediately jumped up and objected. Annoyed, Tang Long raised his gun and shot a big hole in the floor, and then shouted at the frightened retainers: "Shut your beaks, from now on, anyone who interrupts before I finish talking , all shot!Sit me down now! " Tang Long's actions made everyone understand that the new lord was a moody and powerful figure. Although the retainers sat down reluctantly, they all looked at Tang Long with hatred. No matter what decision Tang Long made, they would not object, but taking back their territory would definitely cause trouble. opposite! "Hmph! Didn't you hear clearly? I mean take back the management rights of your territory, that is to say, you don't need to manage the territory, and the income from the territory will still go into your pockets, If you think this is bad, stand up! "Tang Long said coldly. After seeing some idiot retainers ready to move, Tang Long added: "I will expel him!" " As soon as these words came out, none of the retainers dared to move. The retainers who heard Tang Long's words clearly this time were not stupid, and quickly thought of the benefits of unified management of the territory. In this way, I don't need to invest in my own territory, but I can let the territory grow and develop. At that time, not only will I not have to spend, but I will continue to increase my income!such a good thing since How could I object without hearing clearly? After thinking about this point, the retainer immediately agreed with a smile on his face. In fact, the retainers did not expect that this kind of policy of directly turning their fief income into money for them would make them completely lose control of the fief, that is, the retainers There is no land at all. "Wentao, how much is the tax in the territory? How much is the tenant farmer's salary?" Tang Long asked the young man standing beside Yuna. "My lord, the tax in the territory is generally 20%, and the tenant farmers' wages are determined by the lords themselves. The tenant farmers' wages are 100 Wulai coins per month." Wen Tao replied respectfully. road. "Hmph, 20% of the tax is only received so little. It's useless to raise it so high." Tang Long said so, but the tax is unified for the entire planet, and Tang Long doesn't want to risk being punished. Danger of scolding by the head of the household forcibly lowering taxes. So he ordered: "One hundred per month is not enough, Yuna, and the tenant farmers' wages will be adjusted to three hundred Wulai coins per month in the future." Yuna, who was discussing the future financial plan with her deputy in a low voice, heard Tang Long's words and hurriedly obeyed. Hearing Tang Long's words, the vassals did not speak, because the tenant farmers have been managed in a unified manner, and the salary is paid by the lord. Since they don't use their own money, they can give as much as the lord likes. less. The soldiers and the onlookers cheered immediately. Many of the soldiers' families and these people were tenant farmers. In fact, the salary of 100 Wulai coins given by Wen Tao is very high in the whole planet, and now it has tripled suddenly, so why don't they let them die happily? "Next, I will appoint the heads of various departments. Elsie will be in charge of the construction of the territory's facilities, Ling Li will be in charge of the planning of the territory, and Liwu will be in charge of the administration of the territory." After making these appointments, Tang Long , and also selected two deputies who are outstanding in their respective fields for their respective retainers. The people who were shocked once were still very surprised after seeing the three persons in charge. They didn't expect that the lord's cronies were all beauties. After appointing these, Tang Long said with a smile: "By the way, I don't seem to be directly under the army yet?" The vassal, who was very good at observing words and expressions, immediately expressed his willingness to provide his soldiers to the lord to form a direct army. Tang Long said unceremoniously: "Very good, I will accept all of them without hesitation. By the way, in order to reduce your burden, the retainers will no longer have to bear the salaries of the troops directly under you. In other words, retainers no longer need to have direct troops in the future. " Hearing this, those retainers who were full of joy and thought that they didn't have to worry about the salary of the troops in the future, but were going back to the fief to recruit troops later, were all stunned. No need to have direct troops anymore?Wouldn't that deprive him of his military power? The retainers wanted to protest, but seeing Tang Long looking at him ferociously, they could only swallow their saliva and bow their heads in submission. Except for a very small number of ambitious retainers, most of the retainers think that it is almost the same if they have soldiers or not. Anyway, they could not go to the battlefield with such a small force before, so it is better to hand over to them. My lord, it would be better for my lord to establish martial arts. Those soldiers couldn't help cheering when they heard that they had all become the troops directly under the lord, oh, they should be called the lord now. Seeing that the lord has tripled the wages of the tenant farmers just now, do you believe that your own wages will also increase several times? For soldiers, the difference between following a lord and following a retainer is worlds apart. Tang Long nodded and said, "Okay, Sally and Jess are in charge of army reorganization and training, and Peng Wenfeng and Zhang Kai are in charge of territory inspection. There are 3,000 people. They will recruit troops on their own, and the fee will be paid by Yuna." According to No. 2 star data, Peng Wenfeng and Zhang Kai are well-versed in managing local law and order, so Tang Long appointed them. Hearing Tang Long's words, Peng Wenfeng and Zhang Kai, who had always thought that they had low positions and were not taken seriously, immediately climbed out excitedly to thank them. They didn't expect that they had only a hundred subordinates. , Can actually command 3,000 people. As for Sally and Jess, they were appointed by Tang Long as early as on the battleship, so they followed orders without being surprised. Under Tang Long's signal, Sally immediately led the soldiers away to reorganize, while Elsie, who likes to destroy, took two assistants into the city hall to discuss where to destroy first. Then rebuild. Yuna, who was in charge of finance, had already brought her deputy down to collect economic intelligence, and Peng Wenfeng and Zhang Kai also went to recruit troops. Of course, Li Wu also brought her deputy into the city hall to start administrative work. As for Ling Li, who was in charge of planning, she flew into the sky with her assistants and began to survey the terrain. In short, all the people appointed by Tang Long left, leaving only Tang Long, the hundreds of mecha fighters and the hundreds of retainers who had no mission left in the entire open space. Of course, there are more and more people around. Tang Long got up and said to these retainers who were uncomfortable avoiding his eyes: "Don't think that you have nothing to do, I will arrange a few tasks for you, you can form a team to complete these tasks.Remember to do what you can, and you will be rewarded if you do well, and you will lose the fief if you mess up. " When the retainers heard this, they all looked at their lord in fear, fearing that the lord would give him some particularly difficult tasks. Judging from the deputy candidates appointed by the lord, they know that the lord knows the abilities of their retainers very well, and the retainers who have not been selected as deputy are simply waiting So waste. Now that the lord is giving the task, he definitely wants to see if people like himself are still useful, and those who make the lord feel useless will definitely be confiscated and expelled. And those people who are very familiar with the abilities of these retainers all looked at it gloatingly. They really wanted to see what kind of rewards these retainers who are usually high above would receive. Task. After walking back and forth for a few steps, Tang Long stretched out a finger and said, "I want to know the detailed figures of the population in my territory. Remember, there must be minors, adults, the elderly and the total population percentage, and the male-to-female ratio. "Furthermore, we need to know how many people are unemployed, how many households are rich, middle-class, and poor, all of which need to be thoroughly investigated. "Okay, who will pick up this one-month mission?" Since many people are scattered in various places, and many of them have not registered their household registration, even a computer as powerful as Xingling No. This is the only way to do it. The vassals who took out the micro-camera to record as early as Tang Long started talking, all began to think about whether they could complete this task. They all knew that this task depended on having more manpower, as long as there were more manpower, it would not be a problem to complete this task.But all his soldiers and tenant farmers were taken away by the lord, except those from various lands. People who live in the countryside can only look for information in the local household registration computer, and the rest of the population can only pay for someone to help with the investigation. Soon, more than a dozen retainers with relatively well-connected connections stepped forward and expressed their willingness to accept this task.After Tang Long recorded their names, these retainers immediately resigned to carry out the task up. Then, Tang Long stretched out another finger and said: "The second task is: I want to know the detailed economic situation in the territory and the distribution of special products in the territory. I want to know what kind of business is good. Do, what business is not easy to do, and at the same time, the people who I want to take on this task have come up with a plan to increase the tax of the territory. It takes a month, who will take it? " As soon as Tang Long finished speaking, dozens of retainers ran out to express their willingness to take up this task. Judging by their fat heads and pig brains, they dare to see this task as very simple.But Tang Long didn't tell the truth, and let them carry out the task after recording their names. "The third task, I need to know the sales status of the products in the territory, and at the same time find a new sales route for the products in the territory. The time is also one month. Big reward! " Although Tang Long could find a low-cost and high-profit sales route through Sister Computer, in order to train these retainers, Tang Long decided not to rely on Sister Computer. This time, the retainers thought hard for a long time before three retainers stood up to accept this task. Tang Long knew these three people. They were all guys who liked to travel. It seemed that they had been to many places and had a great opportunity to develop new sales lines. After thinking about it, Tang Long continued: "The fourth task is to find a way to increase the production of special products in our territory. Who will do it in a month?" As soon as these words fell, several retainers who were born in the breeding and animal husbandry industry immediately took over the task. "The fifth task, I need to know what is lacking in our territory, and I also need to know where to buy cheap and affordable things that are lacking in our territory. And the development of new sales lines is a great contribution! " Tang Long waved exaggeratedly. Hearing the words of great merit, several retainers who were overwhelmed by their own abilities immediately expressed their willingness to accept it. "The sixth task, I want to know the economic situation of other territories near us." This task is very simple, except for a few retainers who offended some people and did not dare to leave the territory, everyone else took this task. The few remaining retainers at the end looked at Tang Long with trepidation. They were very afraid that the task just now would be the last one. The most useless person? Tang Long glanced at them and said with a smile: "I have assigned a task to you guys, which is to let everyone in the entire territory know that I am their boss. As long as they work hard, I will give them a happy life! "I also want them to know that no one can disobey my orders in this territory! As long as you let them know this, you have completed the task." The retainers felt relieved, and hurriedly said thank you to the lord, they thought that the lord arranged such a task for themselves to take care of themselves.But before leaving, he was called by Tang Long: "Still Yes, at the same time, you should pay attention to any outstanding talents in the territory. It doesn't matter who they are, as long as they have talents, show them to me. " Several retainers realized that this was the real task, and respectfully obeyed. The people who have listened carefully to these tasks are thinking about what kind of changes this new lord will bring to this land. However, the people who have skills but are not appreciated, after hearing the last mission, they all began to pay attention to the movements of those retainers, and prepared to find an opportunity to show their hands in front of them. Can they be recommended to the lord. Tang Long, who had nothing to do and returned to the battleship with his mech fighters, did not know that today's actions would set the format for his future meeting, and because of this meeting, he would set the stage for future meetings. One of Tanglong's characteristics of Zhou Dynasty - open-air meeting, and laid the foundation. Tang Nawen, who soon received the details of Tang Long's meeting, couldn't help laughing after reading the content: "It seems that Tang Long is also very good at internal affairs." A young man standing on Donovan's left frowned and said, "Father, isn't this Tang Long too arrogant? He actually said that he is the boss, and no one can disobey his orders. I don't take you seriously. " This is Don Nawen's eldest son, Tang Haidong, the family servant. Donovan hadn't spoken yet. Standing on his right, a boy who looked similar to Donovan and that young man, but obviously not yet eighteen years old, retorted loudly: "Brother, Master Tang Long It is normal to say that he is the boss of his territory, and that no one in his territory can violate his orders.Our family rules are not stipulated, the lord is the only authority in the territory character?Why do you say that Mr. Tang Long doesn't take his father seriously? " This is Tang Hainan, the youngest son of Donovan. "You...huh!" Tang Haidong was so suffocated by these words that he could only snort coldly and stop looking at his brother. Donnawen watched the argument between his two sons with a smile. He didn't feel distressed, because before he became the head of the family, he fought openly and secretly with Tang Nawu in the same way. The Tang family's family rules are very strange, and they actually encourage those who are qualified to inherit the position of the head of the family to compete with each other. In addition to the methods of assassination, poisoning, and resignation, other means of slander, slander, and poaching are allowed. Fights are hot. But at the same time, the family rules stipulate that no matter what the previous disagreements were, once someone succeeds in becoming the head of the family, other contenders must obey the head of the family unconditionally and must not fight again. Violators will be sentenced to death. Perhaps it is because of this family rule that the Tang family can survive under the attack of powerful enemies, because all the patriarchs who have been trained in this environment are full of tricks Duan: A cruel old fox. "Father, Tang Long has such powerful individual equipment, will it affect my family's strength?" Tang Haidong, who quickly calmed down, asked again worriedly. Donovan shook his head and said: "No, Tang Long only has one warship now, even if he has powerful individual weapons, it will be useless." Tang Hainan also interjected: "Isn't Eldest Brother too thoughtful? The fact that Mr. Tang Long, who possesses powerful force, can join my family shows that he is loyal to my family. Retainers, it may cause a backlash. " "you……" Tang Haidong pointed at Tang Hainan angrily, but was interrupted by Tang Nawen: "Okay, Hainan, you are going to be a soldier in one month, are you under Weifu's command, or are you doing it yourself?" own development? " Tang Haidong saw his father caring so much about his younger brother, so he could only swallow what he hadn't said. "I want to train under Master Tang Long." Tang Hainan said excitedly. "Tang Long?" Both Donovan and Tang Haidong looked at him in surprise. Tang Nawen said earnestly: "Tang Long is a newcomer to our family. We don't know what he is thinking. If you go, you may..." Tang Haidong also nodded in agreement. Although he and his younger brother had problems, he still cared about his younger brother. "What will happen?" Tang Hainan asked strangely. "It will make him misunderstand that the family doesn't trust him, and send you as a spy." Tang Haidong reminded. Tang Hainan smiled and said, "How could it be? If I'm sent there, it will show that the family trusts him." "Okay, let's not talk about this for now, and think about what to do when you become a family soldier. By the way, Haidong, what do you think of Tang Long's method of assigning tasks?" Donovan asked Tang Hai Dong asked. Tang Haidong nodded and said: "His method is very good, so that the retainers can choose the tasks that suit them to complete. I believe this is more efficient than performing tasks directly ordered by the lord." Wugao. " Donovan asked with great interest: "Then can we also implement this system?" Tang Haidong shook his head and said: "No, because the people below us are all old retainers, and they are used to this system. If we implement it like this, these old retainers will He will definitely oppose it because he feels like a dog grabbing bones, which will cause turmoil in the family. " Tang Hainan, who had been listening quietly, asked a little strangely: "Then why Tang Long can implement this method? Those retainers are very happy to grab tasks like dogs." Tang Haidong sighed: "This is because those retainers are all foreign retainers without a master, and they belong to the three factions, it is impossible for these people to compete with the powerful new lord. "And the most important thing is that their soldiers and tenant farmers were taken away by Tang Long. Can they, who have no foundation, fight for tasks like dogs? This Tang Long seems to have a set. " Hearing what his son said, Donovan didn't say anything, but frowned and thought about the problem silently.
