MTL - Attack Stream of Life-Chapter 144

When the days of the people of the Silent Territory became more prosperous, it was not very far from the Silent Territory, because the war caused by the contradiction between the two kings continued, and the scope of influence was expanding.

Without faith, soldiers fighting for plunder rob the wealth of civilians, bully their wives and daughters, and then kill them for fun.

These are the same as robbers, but in the skin of an army.

Perhaps the reason for the war at the beginning was the contradiction between the two sides, but now it has become a protracted war that cannot be ended voluntarily.

The people of the border were displaced by the war and suffered unspeakably.

"If they treat their people like this, wage war for their own enjoyment, wage war for the possession of more wealth. Then, let those whom they regard as ants choose for themselves, Either stay on the battlefield of injustice, or come to our lands and live free."

Enjoyed for so long, these powerful people have forgotten who gave them this power, not themselves, but the commoners.

Qing Chuan gave a hundred guards a mission, and they held a key that could open three teleports. The mission is to go to the battlefield and bring back at least a thousand future vassals.

Must be persecuted civilians.

This mission is risky, even life-threatening, but the warriors are hungry for more opportunities. If they were cowardly or liked a quiet life, they would not have chosen this profession in the first place.

This is never a peaceful age, life is fragile, war, disease, natural disaster, man-made disaster, they may be targeted by death at any time. Among the warriors, their average lifespan is not higher than others, even with force.

Every soldier's family knows this is a high-reward, high-risk job, and all they can do is wait.

The guards who went out wore inner armor made of high-grade demonic beast leather, and had enough medicine and food in their rucksacks. They were also equipped with sophisticated weapons and equipment.

A group of them are official warriors, led by a senior warrior and a magician, and there is also a pharmacist in the team. This is all for their safety.

No lord anywhere else would spend so much energy and money on consumable low-level warriors.

"May you return safely, my soldiers."

After a farewell ceremony, Qingchuan, as a lord, solemnly gave each warrior a one-time magic amulet.

Each of these warriors has gathered countless energy and resources, and they are polished swords. But Qingchuan had to send them outside for a trip. Without going through trials, they would not be considered true warriors.

This is when they prove their worth.

"You will live up to your expectations!" The soldiers also saluted solemnly.

At first they thought it would be two or three years at most, but this war has been fought for six years one after another, and the Silent Leader has also sent a dozen guards before and after, bringing back about three thousands of refugees.

In addition, Qingchuan has also eaten a lot of slave traders.

I got some information about the prince before, and found seven colosseums scattered all over the country, plus the 'generous donations' of others, more than 10,000 residents of different races in the territory, The zoo has also more than doubled in size.

The Silence Collar is not so hot now, the fire ring is only in the outermost layer, and the interior gradually returns to normal. Ecology is recovering rapidly.

Qingchuan is planning to build a port recently, because the goods in the territory need to be shipped out, and the shipping is convenient and cheap, and it can be directly shipped to ports in more than 20 different principalities for direct sales.

Of course, the risk at sea is slightly higher. There are many prehistoric monsters living in the sea. Once encountered, it will inevitably suffer heavy losses.

The special sauce of Silence Collar has become the new favorite of the middle and low-level people in the outside world. You can buy a can for a little money, and a can can be eaten for a long time. , added to the wheat noodles passed by Silent Leader, and spread on the bread.

There are also dairy products, especially dry cheese and milk powder, which are nutritional products that can be stored for a long time. The pastures of the orcs have been hundreds of times larger than before. They have carefully cultivated and selected the breeds of cattle, and divided the cattle into three types: meat, milk and dual-use.

There are two other specialties worth mentioning: bath products and lighting products.

Bath products include liquid, paste, solid, scented, unscented... There is no shortage of vegetable oils, alkalis, and salts on the territory, which can be industrially produced. The higher the production volume, the lower the cost, and the by-product glycerin can also be used to make skin care products.

That cheap clam oil is the fist skin care product of Silence Collar.

Lighting products refer to candles, ash candles, mainly for the middle and lower classes. There are also some scented candles that are favored by women. They like to light one when they are doing errands. It is said to have more atmosphere.

The originally barren Silence Collar has turned green for more than half. Looking down in the air, I can no longer see its original appearance.

Qingchuan still deliberately retains the outermost ring of fire.

Not yet, his strength is not strong enough to fight against several nearby countries.

There were casualties in the **** team dispatched before, seventeen people died in six years. According to the policy of the silent collar, ten times the annual salary is directly paid as a pension, and there is a military medal made of gold. Children of martyrs have preferential treatment in school and work, and families of martyrs can reduce or exempt daily travel tickets and medical expenses.

This is to relieve the soldiers of their worries.

In addition, a martyr's garden was built, and the name was engraved on the stone tablet.

This is a kind of honorary and spiritual compensation, Qingchuan deeply regrets them, and can only make up for the other's family and reputation afterward.

Some people who are seriously injured or even disabled also have a pension and a military medal. Quietly understands that they will arrange other jobs with easier wages and lower wages, so as not to let heroes shed blood and tears.

Qingchuan's actions surprised many soldiers, and there was even a feeling that a soldier died for his confidant.

He told the soldiers in every way that you died gloriously, died great, and are well-deserved heroes.

As long as the silence collar is still the silence collar, every August, the Martyrs Garden will be filled with flowers.

Qingchuan is not only for the soldiers, but also for the people.

The broadcast was broadcast on a loop, and Qingchuan, the lord, read the name of the victim on the broadcast.

He told everyone that these young warriors, they sacrificed for the future freedom, strength and peace of the territory, they were for everyone who lived in the territory, they were heroes, they were Flesh-forged guardrails and guns.

These young warriors are from among us, our sons, daughters, warriors of the people. Their deaths were great and meaningful, and everyone should be thankful for these warriors who shed their heads and shed their blood.

Without the heavy lifting ahead of them, there would be no peace behind us.

"We should salute when we see these young kids in army green uniforms. Thank you."

The prestige of the **** team is already high, and after this broadcast, it is even higher. Even a child knows to thank these aunts and uncles for protecting themselves.

The **** has changed from a daily job to an extraordinary job with noble meaning.

The most intuitive manifestation is that there are more young children who want to join the **** team. Even some magician apprentices are eager to join the **** as a reserve force.

"It's a terrible place." The branch president of the Warriors Association said with emotion.

Only here, the dream of young children is to become a fighter in the escort, protect their territory and guard their homeland.

The lord planted this seed in the hearts of all children. He is very patient, and he cultivated these children at all costs, so that this seed can obtain sufficient nutrients and work hard to take root and sprout.

It has been more than ten years since the establishment of the school, these seeds have become green and tall saplings, and continue to grow strong in different fields. It looks like it will grow into a lush forest.

In ten years, some of the lords outside are still the same people, and some have been changed, but there is almost no change in society.

For a country, ten years is very short, unless there are natural and man-made disasters, or there is a major breakthrough in magic machinery technology, it is difficult to make any obvious changes, their system is fixed , No matter how talented the lord is, he cannot easily change.

The Silence Territory is different. Everything is created from nothing. The lord is the chief designer and the authority.

It's like painted paper and white paper, which is easier to paint on?

"This is the most far-sighted lord I have ever seen, and the land with the greatest potential." Another elder said. He is witnessing this piece of land from a poor and remote village to a city with a population of 70,000 or 80,000.

"Free compulsory education for all children, select the most talented group of people in six years, and continue to train in more advanced colleges. On the other hand, we continue to find excellent teachers. Children will be educated in more detail to stimulate the talent and potential of each child. The gold coins used during this period can buy back the title of earl of a powerful country. No one will do this, except our lord."

"Just like this is terrible. He has also been reducing or exempting basic material taxes, including agricultural tax, breeding tax, and handicraft tax for small family workshops with less than ten people, but it has strengthened the business model of more than ten people. Business tax and luxury tax have developed a stepped tax structure. The more income, the higher the tax. But this higher is lower than the bottom line in the heart. In addition, the prohibition of bribery, corruption and blackmail, minus this part of the public relations costs, so businessmen There is less money to give, and there is no conflict.”

“He uses a unified official language, writing, and unit of measurement, firmly controls the three points of salt, metal and coins, prohibits private sales, sales and manufacture, and conducts unified purchase of grain, regulation of Every year, the price of food has been kept at a reasonable line.”

"This can avoid social unrest caused by grain merchants driving up grain prices, and can also ensure that the annual income of farmers is enough for a family to use. Farmers are the foundation, many people understand the truth, but how many people can done?"

"However, the most terrifying thing is the civil service examination system that was introduced before. As long as the first three generations have no major criminal records, no matter whether you have money or not, whether you have aristocratic blood, or what race you are, as long as you can take the test After passing the psychological test, the interview is successful, and after the internship, he can take up the post and become a once-dignified 'master'."

"But it's not forever, it's not the end of the exam, there are business assessments every year, and civilians are always watching whether there are illegal acts. If you do well, it will continue to rise. If you don't do it well Okay, come down and even eat in jail."

"In a relatively stable and peaceful environment, with an obvious rising system, talents are like flowing water. They select the best and make them managers and leaders. Such a group of A batch, always keeping a clear mind and vitality."

"And those who have reached the top don't have to worry, because the merits they have won will be converted into honorary titles and can be passed on to the third generation, that is, the grandchildren. Their descendants have more than others. More opportunities and resources.”

The more they talked, the more they felt that the lord was a terrible person. Although it does not show off the mountains and waters, and is very close to the people on weekdays, the basis of the policy was formulated from the beginning.

Just a few years, at most. Because the leaders of the first and second batches have already begun to take power, the lords intend to divide the power.

stable system, the society will be more stable.

It just became less friendly to the lord personally.

Although it is still centralized, there are only six levels in the hands of the lord, and four levels in the hands of the management. Similar to the modern parliamentary system.

The most ruthless thing is to come up with an ICAC that can supervise lords to officials of all levels below, staring at officials to see if there is corruption, abuse of power, etc. Accept anonymous reports from civilians every day and conduct secret investigations. Once you get a search warrant, you can come to your door to find evidence directly without any preparation.

To be ruthless to myself is really ruthless. In order to complete the final blueprint, I directly stabbed myself with a knife. This lord is the first strange person to fight against his own class since ancient times. He seems to have no confidence in the ability of his successor, preferring to come up with such a stable parliamentary system.

Oh, yes, he has no successor yet, and there will be no blood successor in the future.

There is no chance to inherit such an excellent political talent, that white wolf is really guilty.

"Ah!" Wei Ge, who was in the military area office, sneezed.

He is negotiating a new military exercise with several instructors.

In fact, Wei Ge usually does not arrange military exercises in person, but this time is a bit special, it is the first joint exercise between magicians, warriors and monsters.

It is not uncommon for magicians and warriors to join forces. What is rare is a row of new warriors who have been raised since childhood, so they need to be more careful.

Qingchuan wants to scale the Warcraft Legion.

The second generation of the zoo, he selected the smartest relatives and sent them to the escort. In the future, the monsters will also be selected and bred from generation to generation. Those who are not suitable can choose to be sent back to the zoo, or be used as the pet of the **** who is responsible for the daily patrol and escort.

It's only the first batch, after all, it's only six years.

Qingchuan has just returned from the newly repaired port. All the ships built in the dock were launched successfully. If there is no problem, this will be the commercial fleet in the future.

No difference. One breath can dive underwater for more than an hour, which is an evolutionary form of human beings.

A righteous man like Zorro.

On the way home, Qingchuan came across a newly married motorcade.

The handsome groom is standing on a dark brown horse, and in the beautiful carriage is his bride. Qing Chuan felt that this bride was a little familiar. Are they rushing to the marriage place to hold the wedding and get a marriage license?

Qingchuan deliberately made the marriage beautiful, with a hall more than ten meters high, with colorful paintings and crystal lamps on the top of the head, and on both sides there are pictures of various gods blessing a happy marriage. The newlyweds swear and exchange vows rings on the front stage, and the staff sends their wedding wishes and marriage certificates.

A group of relatives and friends from both sides stood at the bottom, and they all came to witness and bless.

Then they left in a carriage and returned home, usually with a small carnival.

Afterwards, both parties took the marriage certificate and the household registration book to change the household registration.

Brides do not change surnames, their children inherit the father's surname and the mother's first surname. There is a small trouble like this, the surname will be longer and longer, the first is the first surname of the paternal line, and then the first surname of the female ancestors of the generations.

But the people seem to be very happy.

As civilians and refugees, the territorial people did not have a surname before, they only had a first name. The surname is a symbol of the descendants of the nobility.

Now the Silent Land allows its citizens to register their surnames.

This is the foundation.

Qing Chuan wanted to go back directly, but suddenly he didn't want to eat at home today. Wei Ge was busy with the exercise, and was absent for half a month. I didn't feel how important his existence was on weekdays, but suddenly he was the only living person left in the family, which was a bit boring.

So he went to Commercial Street, no, it should be called Commercial District now.

That area is full of shops, selling all kinds of local specialties, and there are many entertainment venues. If the caravan from outside came, they would definitely come to the commercial area. The products here are the most complete and the news is the fastest.

Now there are seven or eight hotels to choose from.

The merchants will not leave immediately when they come here. They will visit the famous night market here, go to the zoo, and if possible, go to the Dragon Cave Restaurant for a meal.

The Silence Collar does not allow the existence of street girls, so there is no way to call the lady here. Once found, the hotel will be suspended for several months for repairs. Although the businessmen are talking about it, they still dare not commit crimes against the wind.

Casinos, yes, there are only three officially licensed to operate, and there is a limit on the amount of players. A small bet is good, a big bet hurts the body.

But there are plenty of other places to play.

You can go to the theater to watch dramas, many of which are made by Qingchuan, and they are all classics, and you will never get tired of watching them. You can go to the concert hall to enjoy high art. You can go to the puppet theater to see a puppet show. Or dance at a music bar and fight cards at a warrior bar.

The commercial area is very lively at night, and the expensive magic lights of various colors, such as the Milky Way star shower, make the earth bright.

Under the colorful lights, men and women hold milk tea and other drinks, eat cheap and delicious snacks, and friends gather to chat and laugh. Men and women on a date look for a more secluded place to have a romantic candlelit dinner.

It's not even night yet, the business district during the day is more like a dignified and graceful lady, and the streets are full of shops of various clothing and luxury items. Ladies with bags and children enjoy the joy of shopping. There are expensive magicians walking on the street, they walk into shops selling all kinds of precious magic materials.

Qingchuan found a shop selling fried dumplings.

Fried dumplings are a popular delicacy in the territory after the price of vegetable oil began to drop.

Because of the use of fine wheat flour, meat and vegetable oil, the price will be slightly more expensive, and the local people only occasionally bring their children to eat a full meal. On weekdays, I buy five or six, and everyone in the family has a taste.

But single men and women, they don't have family burdens, they can have a few days every month, especially after the salary is paid at the beginning of the month, the business of the dumpling shop will be particularly good.

He was wearing a cloak with a wide brim and a mask, which was deliberately covered up, and neither the manager nor the clerk recognized him.

"Ten fried pork dumplings, a drawer of crystal shrimp dumplings."

"Okay, please take your seat first."

The clerk has a very good service attitude, and quickly brought clean chopsticks, chopstick rests and small plates. The small plate is used to pour the sauce. Qingchuan still likes to serve it with millet vinegar, which happens to be provided here.

This store is doing good business, and before the meal time, there are seven or eight people sitting in the store.

An old woman next door was praying with her grandson: "Thank you Lord for giving us rich food..."

Qingchuan:…

It's just a change of God to a lord.

Because of this, he didn't dare to go out casually in recent years, and there was less fishing. I feel that the personal cult of the people is particularly serious. I have said many times not to engage in personality cult, remembering that no one is perfect, but there will still be Dingfeng committing crimes.

He is a bit tangled up in grabbing the jobs of religious people.

There are two young girls next door, looking at the same uniforms, they should be staff members of a nearby bank who came to eat after get off work.

"...they finally got married? Oh my god, that girl is so lucky to have found someone who loves her deeply. I heard that he is still a descendant of a noble family? If you inherit it, you can only go out and do business." A girl was gossiping with great interest.

She has a very low voice, but there is someone nearby who has a particularly good ear.

The other girl couldn't help rolling her eyes, "Yes, a descendant of aristocrats who can't even recognize ligatures. If the nobles outside are like this... Forget it, don't talk about it. For us To grow up in the Silence Collar."

"Haha, that's right. Otherwise we'd probably be standing in the pigpen and bending over to clean up the pig manure?"

Two cups of milk tea lightly touch each other.

"But I still think that girl is happy, is she called Lilian? A man, who has been pursuing her for more than six years, is now willing to stay in this strange land for her, and it took three years to apply Isn't it romantic enough when it comes to household registration?"

"Because she is smart. If it were me, I would only marry a man with a quiet household registration. Because only here can women's rights in marriage be guaranteed. Outside, the only child even She can't inherit her parents' inheritance, she can only watch her cousins ​​take away what belongs to her, and she can't decide on her own marriage, and it is likely to be sold by unscrupulous relatives."

Lilian? Qing Chuan finally knew why the bride during the day made him look familiar.

It was the second batch of immigrants from the Silent Land. An old grandmother adopted a little girl, and her eyes were full of unease and fear. Before I knew it, was that little girl old enough to marry?

I have no real sense of the passage of time, but I suddenly heard the news of the marriage of a younger generation I have seen. At this moment, I felt the ruthlessness of time waiting for no one.

Twelve years?

How fast.

The author has something to say:Infrastructure blood is flowing.
