"Ding dong! Congratulations to the host for subduing the Five Tiger General Huang Zhong. You have received 1,000 luck points.”
"System, Huang Zhong's influence in history should be relatively large, right? Why is the luck value obtained the same as his strength?”Liu Hao said unhappily in his heart. 1,000 luck values were too little.
"Ding dong! Generally speaking, the host only has a low cultivation realm and has a great influence in history. Only then will the luck value obtained by the host exceed his own strength.”
"Alright then!" Since the system had made such a rule, Liu Hao had no choice.
After Huang Xu's matter was settled, Liu Hao went to deal with other matters.
Gan Ning had arrived in Liaodong before Liu Hao and had brought Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin with him. Liu Hao naturally wanted to meet him.
Liu Hao sent someone to call the three of them. In about fifteen minutes, the three of them arrived at the prefect's manor.
"My lord!"
"Lord Prefect!"
The three of them bowed and said.
"No need to be so polite. These two must be Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin.”
Liu Hao glanced at Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin. Zhou Tai's strength was slightly higher, at the early stage of HuaJin, while Jiang Qin was only at the peak of internal Jin.
"Zhou Tai!"
"Jiang Qin!"
"It's a blessing for the three of you to come to Liaodong.”Liu Hao said a few polite words and then said,"I also have some understanding of your abilities. Although land warfare is not bad, you are more proficient in water warfare. I plan to establish a navy, which will be led by the three of you.”
Gan Ning and the other two were excited. They were surprised to be able to lead an army on their own.
[Ding-dong. The host has subdued Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin. Reward: 1,100 Fate Points.]”
"My lord, Liaodong doesn't seem to have any big rivers. There's no place to build a navy, and the effect of building a navy isn't very great.”Gan Ning suddenly thought.
"Haha, you don't have to worry about that. My navy isn't on the river, but on the sea. Strictly speaking, it's not a navy, but a navy.”Liu Hao laughed.
"My liege, ordinary ships can't travel on the sea at all. Those fishermen who fish on the sea only stay near the coast and don't dare to go deep at all.”Gan Ning frowned.
In this era, ships only traveled on the surface of the river. They had no ability to explore the sea. Even Gan Ning, who often traveled on the surface, was afraid of the sea.
"I have a ship that can travel on the sea. This is the design blueprint. I have already asked someone to build a shipyard to prepare for the construction of this ship.”Liu Hao took out a blueprint.
This blueprint was the design of Zheng He's treasure ship. Back then, Zheng He's fleet of ships had been this kind of ship. Liu Hao had spent 2,000 luck points to exchange for it from the system.
Gan Ning and the other two took a look at the blueprint and their eyes lit up. They weren't master shipbuilders, but they could tell what kind of ship it was at a glance.
"My liege, this kind of ship is simply too well designed. It can definitely sail on the sea.”Gan Ning said excitedly.
"My lord, with this kind of ship, we can definitely create an invincible navy.”Zhou Tai was also very excited.
"It's not enough to have an invincible navy with only ships. It also needs elite soldiers. However, most northerners are not good at swimming. If we let them start from scratch, it will take too long.”Liu Hao said.
Gan Ning and the other two calmed down. The navy they were building had higher requirements than the average navy. If they were to train a bunch of landlubbers from scratch, they would need at least two years to be able to fight.
"I plan to go to the south to recruit soldiers. The first method is to let you go to the south to secretly recruit soldiers. Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin are both southerners.
The second way is to wait for the ship to be built and then go to Yangzhou by sea. This way, after recruiting people, it will be very convenient to ship them back.”Liu Hao explained the method he had thought of earlier.
"My lord, most people bring their families with them and are unwilling to leave their families to come to Liaodong.”Gan Ning frowned.
"Then let their families come to Liaodong. I can promise them that every soldier's family will get five mu of land.”
"This way, there will definitely be many people willing to come.”Gan Ning's furrowed brows finally relaxed. With the temptation of land, even people who didn't want to join the army would be tempted to come to Liaodong.
One had to know that the aristocratic families controlled a large amount of land. Many people did not have their own land and were tenants of the aristocratic families. Now that they had the opportunity to obtain land, they would definitely not give up.
"Mm, you can choose which method to recruit soldiers. I just want to see an elite navy.”Liu Hao said. He only cared about the results.
"My lord, we have chosen to secretly go to Yangzhou and Jingzhou to recruit soldiers.”Gan Ning and Zhou Tai looked at each other and quickly made a decision.
It would take at least half a year for Zheng He's treasured ship to be completed. They could not wait any longer. They had to recruit soldiers first so that they could undergo some basic training. After the ship was completed, they could immediately sail on the sea.
"A total of 15,000 people will be recruited. Each of you will lead 5,000 people.”Liu Hao said.
"Yes!"
After Gan Ning and the other two left, Liu Hao called Xi Zhong over.
"Zhicai, my father-in-law has come to Liaodong. I plan to build an academy to train a group of talents for Liaodong. You have to choose the location of the academy as soon as possible.”Liu Hao said.
"Don't worry, my lord. I'll definitely settle this matter as soon as possible.”
Xi Zhong understood Liu Hao's intention. The more talents the Academy cultivated, the more confidence they would have to agree to the aristocratic families.
The most troublesome thing about dealing with the aristocratic families was not the land they controlled, but the knowledge they monopolized.
When Liu Hao was dealing with the four great families of Liaodong, he had encountered this problem. Fortunately, Liaodong was not very big. With the loyal actor taking charge of the overall situation, there would not be any major problems. However, it would not be possible in the future.
"Also, my father-in-law is urging me to marry Yan 'er as soon as possible.”
According to Liu Hao's original intention, he didn't want to marry Cai Yan so soon. After all, Cai Yan's real age was just fourteen years old, and there were still a few months left before he turned fifteen. But now that Cai Yan had been brought to Liaodong and was living in the prefect's manor, if it was too long, it would be easy for others to gossip.
"My lord wants to get married. This is a big matter. I will definitely handle it well.”Xi Zhong said happily.
Liu Hao's marriage was a good thing for them. After marriage, people would become more stable. Moreover, if there was no heir to an enterprise, the cohesion would be insufficient.
"Alright, you can leave first."
"Yes!"
Liu Hao didn't know much about the marriage etiquette in the Han Dynasty, and he didn't have any elders. He could only leave this matter to his subordinates.
After Xi Zhong left, Liu Hao went to the backyard where Cai Yan and Zhang Ning were chatting.
Liu Hao had told Cai Yan about Zhang Ning when he was in the Cai residence. Cai Yan was very magnanimous and accepted Zhang Ning directly. In her words, Liu Hao would definitely not only have her as a woman in the future. She had long been mentally prepared.
"Yan 'er, Ning' er."
"Brother Hao." "Husband." When the two of them saw Liu Hao coming over, they immediately ran over to him.
"I've already arranged for our marriage. It won't be long before we can marry you.”Liu Hao looked at the two of them dotingly.
Zhang Ning and Cai Yan lowered their heads shyly, but they couldn't hide the smile on their faces.
