While he was reading excitedly, he suddenly realized a problem. He frowned and asked,"Uncle Cao, the guards in our courtyard seem to be a little weak.”
According to his observation, there were only about fifty family soldiers among the servants in the Liu residence. It was indeed not enough to guard such a large courtyard.
Liu Hao nodded, but he still felt a little regretful. With his current family background, he could be considered a wealthy family. However, it would be at most possible for him to recruit a family soldier of 500 people.
To achieve great things in this chaotic world, money was an unavoidable problem.
The next thing to consider was the problem of making money.
Even the eunuchs in the palace, like the Ten Attendants of the Imperial Court, were all fat and rich enough to rival a country.
"Master, bad news, bad news. A large group of refugees has arrived outside the door.”
Just as Liu Hao was thinking, a maid hurriedly ran in from outside. She was panting and almost tripped in her panic.
Liu Hao's heart tightened when he heard that she was a refugee. He held her arm and hurriedly asked,""How many people are there?"
The refugees of this era were all poor families who did not have enough to eat. Once they had no other way out, they would end up as bandits.
Therefore, Liu Hao was still on guard.
The maid blushed and said shyly,"Master, I didn't see clearly. There are probably hundreds of people."”
"Go and call Steward Cao over. Gather all the family soldiers and go out to take a look. Oh right, go and make some porridge first.”
Liu Hao solemnly instructed, and the maidservant quickly left.
Not long after, Liu Hao led Cao Zhengchun and the Liu Residence's soldiers to open the door.
With a creak, the red door opened. Seeing the scene in front of him, Liu Hao couldn't help but gasp.
There were many people standing outside, old and young. All of them looked pale as if they had not eaten for days.
"Ding, the host has triggered a mission to settle the refugees. The mission reward is a pot of Hundred Flower Immortal Wine.”
"King level treasure? To a woman, this was simply a heaven-defying elixir!”
As expected, the quest rewards of the Hegemon System were not stingy.
The scene was chaotic. Cao Zhengchun was furious and shouted,"You lowly peasants, what does being homeless have to do with my master? You actually dare to barge into the lord's manor. You deserve to die!”
Liu Hao stretched out his hands and pressed down. It was as if there was a kind of deterrent force that forced the refugees to stop their chaos and look up at him.
"Is there a leader among you who wants to speak?" Liu Hao asked.”
The crowd elected a leader. It was a little old man, and beside him stood a young man and a woman.
The woman had a delicate appearance, while the young man was tall. He wore a tattered shirt and his arms were very strong. When Liu Hao saw this young man, he could not take his eyes off him. If this wasn't Zhan Zhao, who was it?
Thinking of Zhan Zhao, who the system said would take the initiative to join, Liu Hao already had an idea.
"May I ask your name?"
Liu Hao asked as he supported the old man.
"This is my nephew, Zhan Zhao, also known as Xiong Fei. This is my daughter, Zhan Yun. Zhan Zhao, Zhan Yun, come and greet Master.”
The little old man pulled the two of them and bowed again, saying carefully,""This lowly one heard in the county that the master of the Liu residence was recruiting servants, so I specially brought the villagers to serve. I didn't expect that there would be too many people.”
Sensing the earnest and pleading gazes of the crowd, Liu Hao said unhurriedly,""The residence does need to recruit servants, but we don't need so many.”
This was the truth. There was no shortage of homeless refugees in the world today. It was impossible for these hundreds of refugees to enter Luoyang City under the feet of the emperor. They could not even enter the cities near Luoyang. They would be chased away by the garrison.
"Hehe, you're already in my bowl.”
Liu Hao narrowed his eyes and smiled. However, he put on a troubled expression and sighed softly."Warrior Zhan, please get up quickly. How can I do this? However, I can't bear to see so many commoners become homeless. Now, I have an idea.”# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:0712201810:46AM
