Devil’s Advent

Chapter 13: Lick the dog, lick to the end

   At the dawn of dawn, the blind man found Zheng Fan.

   There is no fatigue on his face.

   Two people sitting in the yard, one with a bench and a small table in the middle, on which are placed four bowls of rice porridge, a dish of pickled ginger, a dish of mustard, and two salted duck eggs.

The two together tacitly picked up a salted duck egg. Blind North peeled the whole egg and put it in a porridge bowl. Zheng Fan knocked a hole in one end of the egg, peeled it a little bit, and used it. The chopsticks dig out the egg little by little.

   It can be said that the inn was extremely busy all night last night, and this kind of busyness has continued until now.

   But even if everyone has been silent for half a year, they are still in order when they are actually running.

   "Lord, this world is indeed different from what we imagined before, and it can be said to be much more interesting."

"Ok."

   Zheng Fan knew that this was reporting to himself, so he didn't worry, he just waited for the blind man to speak slowly.

   The message comes from the son-in-law's interrogation last night and the intelligence obtained by Blind Bei and Xue San. As for Fan Li, he should still be in the barbarian caravan at this moment. He should not be able to return in a short time.

   Blind Beizhen should have done a summary. Seriously, Zheng Fan was really afraid that Blind Beizhen would bring over the copied files to ask himself to go over it.

   He likes this way of reporting while having breakfast.

   "Lord, don't dislike me nagging, I will speak slowly from point to surface."

"it is good."

"The location where we are now is called Hutou City. The scale of the city is not large. Strictly speaking, it is a satellite city. The entire northern part of the Yan Kingdom, including Hutou City, is part of the North Seal. County is almost the meaning of province.

  Yan has seven counties. In addition to Beifeng County, there are six counties: Lesha, Tiancheng, Xiahu, Sanshi, Huwei, and Yinlang. Yanguo is located in Tiancheng County. It can be said that Tiancheng County is a bit similar to the Gyeonggi region.

   And Beifeng County is basically the northern front line of Yan Kingdom. A hundred years ago, this was the area where Yan Kingdom and the barbarians fought and fought.

But first, because the barbarians split themselves, the royal court’s decline no longer had its appeal, and it was impossible to gather together to launch a major offensive. Second, because of the rise of the three powers of Da Gan, Da Chu, and Da Jin, the country of Yan also had to The center of gravity shifted to the Central Plains.

   Therefore, although there have been occasional small frictions between the Yan Kingdom and the Barbarian tribes in the past 100 years, there have been no major battles with a scale of more than 10,000 people.

   Tumancheng is the largest city on the edge of this desert in the Yan Kingdom. It was called Tuman City in the early years. Later, because of the tacit understanding and peace between the two sides, the name of the city was changed.

This city is also the capital of Beifeng County. It is a big city. The Hutou City we are in is one of the cities built by Tuman City. However, because it is the closest city to the desert, it is in peace. During the period, commerce was relatively developed.

   Today, Yan, Jin, Chu, and Qian are the four major countries in the world, and some other small countries exist as vassals of the four major countries.

  The official system of Yan Kingdom is a bit complicated. In fact, his political system is more like the Eastern and Western Jin dynasty, where the monarch and the big family ruled the world together, and the royal family is more like the most powerful of the clan, that is, the leader of the clan.

   While Dagan and Dajin followed the imperial examination system, the emperor and scholar-officials ruled the world together.

   As for Da Chu, it is an older aristocratic system. "

   "In that case, are Qian Guo and Jin Guo more advanced?" Zheng Fan asked.

   "The Lord is wise."

   first send a basic phrase, the blind man continued north:

   "It stands to reason that the aristocratic system, the clan system, and the imperial examination system should be a process from backward to advanced, but the development of a country should not only consider its own factors, but also take into account the historical process.

   After the establishment of the country, because of the long-term threat from the desert barbarians, in order to unite the power, the power belonging to the monarch had to be delegated. Only now, this has formed the current situation where the clans are side by side.

   This kind of system is actually not suitable for centralized power, especially when expanding abroad, it tends to be shackled, just like Sun Shiwan during the Three Kingdoms period.

For this reason, even though the country of Yan has had peace with the barbarians for nearly a hundred years, and even though the country of Yan has the Yan country's iron cavalry that makes other countries extremely afraid, it still has no way to proceed from north to south as in the historical pattern we are familiar with. Unite.

But it is precisely because of this system of the Kingdom of Yan that it will be extremely united in the face of the oppression of the Kingdom of Qian and Jin, because the family members in Yan know that once the Jin or the Kingdom of Yan are destroyed, Their good days will come to an end.

At the same time, although the Jin State and the Qian State were imperial examination systems, they also lost their enterprising spirit and ability because of the fact that the literati and officialdom were not inferior to the elite class of parasites because of the long history of the country. .

   The nobles of the Chu Kingdom only know that they are drunk and dream of death. There is still a large tract of barren land in their backyard that has not been developed. Therefore, unless other countries take the initiative to friction, they rarely go to war.

   There have been no large-scale wars between the four countries for nearly 50 years, and each other has entered a four-nation era. "

"Oh, that's how it is."

"In addition, Lord, there is another very interesting thing. An interesting message can be obtained from the county government documents stolen by Xue San, that is, in the West, there are also existing empires, and the exchanges between the two sides are fairly close. There are often Western missions passing through the desert into the country of Yan, and then transferring from the country of Yan to other countries. It can be seen that the exchanges between the East and the West in the ancient world are much more frequent than in our previous world history."

   This is the popularization of geographical knowledge. After the blind man finished talking, Zheng Fan would also eat his first bowl of porridge.

   When Zheng Fan picked up the second bowl of porridge, Blind Zibei began to report on another aspect, which is the power system of this world.

   "The interesting thing about this world is that it has monks, magic, grudges, and warriors. It can be said that the types are quite rich.

That prince, oh, his name is Wang Fuqi. He is a collateral disciple of the royal family of Beifeng County. This time he came to Hutou City specially to travel. He said he wanted to get a taste of the desert customs. The Wang family is considered to be one of them in Beifeng County. It's not a big family.

   The West majors in magic fighting spirit, while the East is cultivation and martial artist. They are divided into nine ranks. Nine is the last and one is respect.

   Probably, the guard you killed on the Lord last night is not even the 9th rank, or it is about to reach the 9th rank, that is, it can use a little bit of internal strength.

   The wife of the patrol captain I saw yesterday told me that her husband is still half a step away from entering the 9th-rank martial arts realm, but he can still beat a blind man to death as easily as trampling an ant.

   This Wang family is also a family heir to martial arts. Wang Fuqi is indeed more respected than ordinary people, but after all, he is a collateral child, and the guard is also an incompetent role.

   Oh, by the way, the strange mount that the lord saw at the entrance of the inn earlier should be a beast.

According to legend, the first emperor of Yan State’s mount was a brave. After the creation of the Kingdom of Yan, the royal family of Yan Kingdom relied on the blood of that brave for reproduction and breeding, and produced a lot of hybrids, but even the lowest-level hybrids. The beast is also indispensable to a person who does not have a status.

   The Beijing official released from outside the capital will probably be matched with one horse, maybe there will be more in some elite cavalry teams. "

  Actually, for ordinary people, the world is limited to one acre and one-third of the land in front of them. Sometimes they don’t even remember the year. They just repeat the meal and want to take the next meal.

   The inn had been in business for half a year before, but I knew nothing about this power system. It was enough to see that the sky of the populace was really too narrow.

   "These things are not fresh anymore." Zheng Fan picked up some pickles into the bowl, ate the rest of the porridge, and then put down the bowl and chopsticks.

   stretched his waist and continued to the blind north who was sitting in front of him:

"Magic, fighting spirit, martial artist, and cultivation are all things that have long been written badly. But it's like watching the news of war and turbulent areas on TV, and you are tired of watching the turbulent area and you come to the turbulent area in person. It feels completely different, and I am really a little excited now."

   Blind Beibei heard the words, nodded and agreed, he was also very excited, and his colleagues were all equally excited.

   Right now, the blind man Bei, who had just finished a bowl of porridge, spoke when he changed another bowl of porridge:

   "Lord, there are two things before us now, one is to find the way back."

   "One can be removed." Zheng Fan said without hesitation.

Although there is a panic about this strange world in his heart, Zheng Fan really never thought about going back. He came to this world through euthanasia, and in the previous world, he has no relatives, and he has been tortured by illness for several times. In 2017, when I left, I had no worries, and there was no such thing as a way back home.

   Blind Zibei didn’t seem to be surprised by Zheng Fan’s response, but Zheng Fan has the right to choose. He still has to say what he should say, and continue now:

   "The second thing is that we need to expand our strength in accordance with the plan previously ordered by the Lord."

   Now, what everyone owns is an inn, and it's just an inn.

  In the past six months, the development of the inn has been in a stagnant state since its establishment until now.

  Because at this scale, the money earned can be considered a decent life. If you manage the relevant government offices and gangs, you can also get a certain amount of shelter and be in a very safe position. "

It's not that Feng Siniang and others are unable to run the inn higher, but that it is not necessary. As stowaways in this world, they have no backing or foundation. It is okay to make the inn this step. If it expands, it is estimated that it will be targeted by the wolf.

   Of course, the reason why I no longer worry about it now is that Zheng Fan's awakening has determined the route, and the other is that they themselves have a tendency to become a wolf.

   "First of all, what we have to do is money and influence." The blind man Bei said slowly, "This is the initial stage. In this initial stage, money and influence are separated.

   Because at this time, it is too dangerous to have money but no influence. "

   "Tell me more concretely." Zheng Fan reminded.

   He knew that among the seven demon kings, Blind Man Bei should be more like a think tank.

  "From small to large, since we are in Tiger Head City now, then I will make our next plan with Tiger Head City as the core.

   We will first create our own forces in Tiger Head City. Under the premise that the prerequisites for rebellion are still immature, our power development can only go to the dark side. This is what our group of people are good at.

First control a few small gangs in Tiger Head City, and then gradually become the largest gang force in Tiger Head City, recruit a group of men who can be used to run errands. At least, we don’t need to be like last night. We have to do anything. Go and do it yourself. At the same time, it is necessary to further enhance the relationship with the official forces in Hutou City. This is the first stage of the strategy of Tiger Head City.

   In the second stage, we can form our own horse bandit team in the desert, rob, protect money, and accumulate primitive accumulation. At the same time, it is best to be able to cooperate with the official forces in Tiger Head City and have a channel for sharing the spoils.

   The third stage is to form a caravan belonging to us through the previous primitive accumulation and the relationship with the background of other major forces that was opened up in the process, and to whiten oneself.

   After these three stages are successful, the Tiger Head City Raiders will be successful. At least, we have a firm foothold in the tiger's head city in this world, and the next development needs to be re-planned. "

   Finally,

   Blind Zibei added another sentence:

   "Lord, please go straight."

   Zheng Fan shook his head and said sincerely: "I have no other opinions. UU reading www.uukanshu.com I think your plan is very good. You have to eat one bite at a time. Well, that's the truth."

   "The Lord is wise."

   "..." Zheng Fan.

   This flattering is so stiff.

   "If there is anything I can help, you can tell me directly, although I..."

   "What subordinates need is trust from the Lord!"

   "Hmm... I trust you very much!"

   Zheng Fan said seriously.

   Blind son Bei shook his head, and said, "No, you don't have it, Lord."

   "I really really trust you!"

   "No, Lord, you don't."

   "You are smart, I believe you!"

   "No, you haven't, Lord."

   "I really trust you!"

   "No, Lord, you still don't have one."

   "I...I trust you!!"

"still none."

   "Leave it to you to arrange things, I'm very relieved."

   "No, Lord, you don't have one."

   "Please, I trust you!"

   Zheng Fan yelled so much that his voice became hoarse.

next moment,

  In the mustard dish, the three mustard pickles floated by themselves and fell into the porridge bowl in the hands of the blind man.

   The blind man smiled,

   took a bite of porridge with pickles,

   is very satisfied and authentic:

   "Subordinates thank you for your trust."

"Ok."

   Zheng Fan nodded politely. He felt that he should keep a little distance from this strange blind man now.

   Blind Zibei put down the porridge bowl, picked up the kerchief in his sleeves, wiped his mouth, and whispered:

   "I'm done licking, you guys continue."
