When the storm is approaching, there is always a brief lull.
Song Zining was still running around indefinitely, while Wei Potian was buried in the pile of affairs. Before the Wu Zhengnan incident was completely over, he needed to manage a city, a military base, dozens of small towns, and hundreds of thousands of people. . And there are still many people who hate him hidden in these places.
Apart from constantly perfecting the details of the plan to form the mercenary group and starting to arrange some start-up work, Qianye spent most of his time practicing. After Song Zining learned that the general outline of the Song clan's ancient scroll had disintegrated, he showed such an expression.
It was only then that Qianye realized why the inheritance of the secret combat skills of the Gaomen family was so limited. It was not just that each family suppressed the later families in order to maintain their own status, but it was also a matter of limited resource allocation in the final analysis.
Just like the Yin family's "Hua Yu Jue" that Qianye got has no general outline, only a bottle of special guiding potion, which is used to temporarily convert a small part of the force in the body, and use this as a guide to activate the "Hua Yu Jue" ". In other words, even if the Yin family did not pursue it, Qianye would not be able to spread this set of exercises.
The reason why the practice of the secret method is so troublesome is because those high-grade and middle-grade skills handed down from the Millennium War period are difficult to copy for some reason, especially the general outline part, the success rate of copying is so low pointing fingers. Therefore, after a long period of exploration by the human race, this set of training system that complements each other with potions and skills was established. Bingjue is an exception, and it has become a popular exercise.
Therefore, even the children of aristocratic families have limited opportunities to practice in front of the authentic scriptures. And those selected outstanding ones, if they can naturally complete the guidance of the secret method without using medicine, they will be the geniuses that attract the attention of all. Like Wei Potian, who ignited the first force node and at the same time led to the "Thousand Mountains", no wonder he will get extremely high expectations of being promoted to Marshal in the future.
Fortunately, skills such as Song's ancient scrolls that can only be guided by the collapse of the general outline are very rare, otherwise the allocation of cultivation resources may be even more tense.
Qianye suddenly remembered that he had heard a few sighs from Lin Xitang back then. Before the Millennium War, the human race naturally awakened their innate abilities. Unexpectedly, their reproduction has been passed down to this day, and their cultivation has become more and more dependent on potions. With a slight twitch in his heart, he felt that the passage about the first opening of the world in the general outline of Song's ancient scroll might not be an idiot's dream language
No matter what, Qianye's life is still going on step by step. The main content of his cultivation is still Bingjue, because most of the martial arts recorded in Song's ancient scrolls are methods for the operation and manipulation of the original force, and many descriptions of meridian air flow are completely incomprehensible, and Qianye can't find that at all. Refers to which part of the body.
He was not discouraged, and took some time to try one by one every day. Sure enough, most of them were unresponsive, and there were only a few exercises that could arouse the original force of dawn. After Qianye practiced a few times, he didn't feel any special changes in the attributes of the original force, but after each complete operation, the original force seemed to become a little bit more solidified.
After Qianye finished practicing that day, he sent the twin girls out of his room again. There was the roar of an engine outside the courtyard, and an off-road vehicle stopped at the door, and a man in his forties jumped out of the car. . His appearance is unremarkable, and he will disappear in a blink of an eye when thrown in the crowd. But when Qianye saw him, he immediately became alert.
The level of this man who is about to reach the age of knowing his destiny should not be very high, but his movements are light and heavy, his steps seem brisk, but his center of gravity is extremely stable. Qianye is very familiar with this type of person, obviously he is a veteran with exceptionally rich combat experience, he will be extremely dangerous on the battlefield, with both the cunning of a fox and the ferocity of a wolf, the degree of danger is not directly proportional to his level.
The middle-aged man said a few words to Ah Qi who stopped him from asking, and then walked towards the main building. He stopped at the bottom of the steps, bowed to Qianye, and said, "The villain's name is Song Hu. He was originally a follower of Young Master Zining. The young master ordered that in the next year, the villain will follow the young master and help deal with it." Some trivial chores for the mercenary regiment."
"Is it Zining?" Qianye was startled, and then let Song Hu into the room.
Song Hu stood respectfully, refusing to sit down even if he said nothing, until Qianye returned to the main seat, and he respectfully presented a box and a letter with both hands, and then he sat on the lower chair halfway.
Qianye has been carefully sizing up this person. Song Hu is dressed plainly, wearing an ordinary warrior uniform. The style is quite familiar. It seems to be the standard clothing of the Song Clan guards, but all the emblems have been removed.
He was carrying a long, old box in his hand, and he didn't let it go even when he sat down, and the sitting posture seemed to be very uncomfortable, almost equivalent to Zama. But Qianye knows that this posture is very suitable for dealing with crises, and he can switch to a fighting posture at any time without hindrance.
"What else did Zining confess?" Qianye held the box and the letter in his hands, but didn't open them right away.
Song Hu said: "Seventh Young Master said that the villain's annual remuneration of two hundred gold coins needs to be paid by you, and all the villain's equipment and equipment should also be counted on your head."
Qianye suddenly felt an indescribable feeling, quietly waiting for the next sentence.
Sure enough, Song Hu said again: "Seventh Young Master asked me to tell you something, you want to play the mercenary group purely to share the worries of that wild boar, he is already doing you a favor by not messing things up, if you want him to work hard and It’s absolutely impossible to pay for it.”
Qianye couldn't laugh or cry for a while. This Song Hu is really a talent. Although he said those two sentences with a dull face, he conveyed Song Zining's meaning vividly. This person is definitely not as dull as he looks on the outside.
Qianye knew that Song Zining had seen through his purpose when he heard that he was going to build a mercenary group, so he didn't tell Song Hu too much, but simply stated the plan he had thought up these days, and explained it in detail Staff training has been arranged.
Song Hu listened carefully, and then went straight to the point, "Young Master Qian, since you plan to put the mercenary group in Heiliu City, the first thing you need to do is find a base. The villain will be wandering around the city these two days , choose a suitable place as the future headquarters. But the villain dares to ask, how much money have you prepared?"
Qianye thought for a while and said, "Probably, more than a thousand gold coins."
Song Hu was a little surprised, and asked: "I originally thought that you were planning to set up a medium mercenary group with more than a hundred people, but it turned out to be just a small mercenary group?"
"Actually, there are about...nearly 400 people at present, and more than 100 children will be able to go to the battlefield within five years." Seeing Song Hu's strange eyes, Qianye smiled and said: "Their weapons and equipment It's all set up."
Song Hu still had a strange look in his eyes, but he immediately realized that he seemed too rude, coughed twice, and said: "In this case, if you don't consider the update of weapons and equipment, then it will cost about 500 gold coins a month , in order to maintain the combat power at the best level. Therefore, in terms of funds, please make plans early."
Qianye just smiled, but it was actually more than this amount.
For example, Song Hu's equipment and remuneration, since Song Zining set the price at two hundred gold coins, his equipment would not be less than this amount.
And those seeds, do you want to pay them? At the beginning, this group of people might be grateful for Qianye's life-saving grace, and serve him regardless of anything in return. But after a long time, people will naturally have different ideas, and some people will want to live their own lives. If Qianye can't give them, some people will definitely feel resentment.
The human heart is the most difficult thing to control no matter when and where.
Seeing that Qianye had no other orders, Song Hu immediately expressed that he wanted to go out and walk around the city right now. Qianye called Ah Qi and Ah Jiu to arrange a guest room for Song Hu. After the room became quiet again, he sat in his original position and began to think quietly, which was something that he would always think about in his spare time in the past few days.
According to Song Hu, if the mercenary group wants to operate normally, it must have enough money. Now Qianye is just supporting those people, so the problem has not been exposed yet. Once they officially enter the battle, it may not last for two months, and there will be nothing left to cook.
In the final analysis, it is still a question of money, or resources. When Qianye was alone, with his ability to hunt and kill the dark race, no matter how bad he was, he didn't have to worry about food and clothing, but when he was in charge of a group of people, the situation was different.
In fact, it is not impossible. Next, no matter whether Qianye was responsible for the defense of an area, received payment from the expeditionary force, or went to the wilderness to hunt down the senior fighters of the dark race, the bounty he received was almost enough to barely support the operation of the entire mercenary group.
However, what should be done when this responsibility extends to a town, a city, a province, or even an entire country
Qianye shook his head, no longer thinking about this question that he couldn't find an answer to at present with his ability. He opened Song Zining's letter, and unexpectedly found that there were only three words "Wei Bainian" on it. This is obviously supposed to be a person's name
When Qianye was thinking about how to solve the trouble he had caused, Wei Potian was having a headache for the hot responsibility that he could not get rid of.
Now every day when he sat on the chair that originally belonged to Wu Zhengnan, Wei Potian felt as if he had fallen into a boundless muddy swamp. On the large desk in front of him, documents are always piled up like a mountain. No matter how hard you try to review, there is no way to cut down this hill.
Every time he approved ten documents, eleven new ones would be put on the table. Wei Potian brought his staff here, but they were not idle. The contents of the document need to be implemented, otherwise it would be nothing more than a piece of paper.
In the calmness of most people and the restlessness of a few people, an inconspicuous airship landed outside Heiliu City, and a group of inconspicuous people got off the airship.
On this day, Wei Potian was buried in the pile of documents as in the past. In Wei Shizi's limited life, these few days were definitely one of the most terrifying experiences, even far surpassing the time when he was trained by Bai Longjia alone.
Hearing the knock on the door, Wei Potian yelled angrily: "Is it still finished? Can't you send it in at once?"
The door opened by itself, and then came a voice that made Wei Potian terrified since he was a child: "Qiyang, you will be promoted to colonel soon, why are you still so impatient?"
Hearing this voice, Wei Potian's hands trembled, and Motuan immediately smeared half of a document he had just signed.
