Upon hearing that the local gentry wanted to see him, Lin Feng coldly snorted. What bullsh * t gentry? Weren't they just a bunch of rich people?
"Are these rich people all dogs? They're really well-informed. I haven't even sat down and they've already run over.”
Lin Feng thought that these local tycoons definitely wanted to probe the situation and see which army this new army was from.
"General." "Do you want to see them?" asked the soldier.”
Lin Feng waved his hand." No, I won't. Tell them to hand it over to me the way they handed it over before."”
"Yes, sir!"
"Wait a minute."
The soldier was just about to leave when he was stopped by Lin Feng.
Now that the army had just been formed, they still needed to expand. There were many places that needed money. The money of these local rich people was not clean to begin with. It would be a waste not to take it.
When he thought of this, Lin Feng spoke in a low voice," Tell them to add another 50% on top of the original base!”
"Yes, sir!"
The soldiers immediately retreated.
Lin Feng was very clear in his heart. Just by looking at this residence, he knew that the landlord had paid a lot of money.
And now, he was asking for an additional 50% on top of the original base. These local tycoons would definitely not agree.
However, Lin Feng didn't care if they agreed or not.
Because, the wealth of these rich people would all belong to him sooner or later.
As expected, as Lin Feng expected, not only did the landlord not agree, he even cursed and left.
" General," Natasha asked," those people are disrespectful to you. Do you want me to deal with them?"”
Lin Feng smiled." They're just ordinary tycoons. Let's not waste time on them now. We have more important things to do." Although Wenshui County has been taken down for the time being, Yan Laoxi will soon find out. What we need to do is to expand our army as soon as possible.”
"As for these local tycoons, they won't be able to live for a few more days.”Lin Feng's gaze was ice-cold.
........
The next day, when it was almost noon, Lin Feng slowly opened his eyes.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the daily check-in mission!”
"The sign-in reward is being distributed."
Ding!" Congratulations to the host for obtaining 30 P40 submachine guns. They have been placed in the storage.”
Lin Feng stretched lazily and smiled.""It feels so good to hear the sound of rewards every day when I wake up!”
If it weren't for the current crisis, the rewards from signing in every day would have been enough for him.
At this moment, the system's voice sounded again.
"Ding! New check-in mission has been released!”
"Increase our military strength and form a team of no less than 1500 people. Once the mission was completed, there would be a gift bag as a reward!”
Enlarge the army?
Lin Feng's eyes lit up. This mission was truly tailor-made for him.
He had already ordered people to put up notices in the county town last night. He believed that at this time, there must be people queuing at the entrance.
Currently, there were already 500 people in the team. They only needed to summon another 1,000 people.
"A thousand people. We can definitely recruit them in a day at most.”At the thought of this, Lin Feng hurriedly put on his military uniform.
After arriving at Wenshui County, Lin Feng distributed the new uniforms of the Jinsui Army.
They would make do with the clothes for now. When they had the conditions in the future, Lin Feng would definitely design a military uniform that belonged to them.
When he arrived at the regiment headquarters, Lin Feng initially thought that he would be able to see a long line of people. He didn't expect that there wasn't even a single person.
People in this era were very poor. It was already a luxury to be able to eat three meals a day on time.
Joining the army was the only way out for the poor.
Furthermore, Lin Feng also requested for the notice to state that not only would one be able to eat their fill after joining the army, but they would also be paid monthly.
Therefore, there was no one there. There must be something wrong.
At this moment, Sun Desheng rushed over.""General, something has happened. The gentry in the county city has said that if anyone dares to come and register, their entire family will be killed!”
Lin Feng instantly understood. No wonder no one came to register.
It seemed that when he asked the gentry to pay 50% more yesterday, their displeasure had already been put into action.
"Have you found out who the leader is?”
"Yes, it's a person called Li Da. He thought that you dared to ask for an exorbitant price when you were still a fledgling. Moreover, he said that you did not see them yesterday because you were disrespecting him. Therefore, he wanted to let you know who in Wenshui County had the right to speak.”
Lin Feng's gaze was ice-cold." I haven't even touched him yet, but he's already looking for trouble." Gather the troops and go to this rich man's house!”
......
At the same time, in Li Da's mansion, the gentry were drinking tea in the courtyard.
" This Commander Tang is really a coward. He was actually chased away by a prisoner of war. All the money we offered previously has been thrown into the water…"
"This kid deserves it. If it wasn't for the fact that we investigated last night and found out that they escaped from the prisoner of war camp, I would have thought that he was a ruthless character!”
"Li Da, you're still the best. You know how to put this kid in his place.”
The corners of Li Da's mouth curled up as he stroked his long beard, enjoying everyone's praise.
"If I don't teach this little prisoner of war a lesson, he really thinks he's..."
"Bang!"
Before Li Da could finish speaking, the door was suddenly pushed open.
The two servants were sent flying back and fainted after spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Seeing the blood on the ground, the gentry were so frightened that their teacups fell to the ground and they all retreated behind Li Da.
In the next second, Lin Feng brought Natasha and the others in with imposing auras.
Li Da slammed the table and scolded," What do you want? Do you want to die? Don't you know my background?"”
" Hmph!" Lin Feng coldly snorted." From the moment you stopped me from recruiting soldiers, you should already have the resolve to die!”
"What?" Li Dayan's eyes almost popped out.""You want to kill me? Do you know who my big brother is?"
Before Li Da could finish speaking, Lin Feng took the gun from Natasha's hand and shot Li Da's head.
"It's finally quiet now."
Lin Feng's ice-cold voice was like it came from hell, entering the ears of the gentry.
The gentry were horrified to see Li Da lying in a pool of blood. The more timid ones actually peed on the spot.
One of the gentry reacted the fastest and knelt on the ground with a thud."Sir, please spare my life. Please spare my life. I will agree to all your requests. I will immediately send someone to send the money to your residence. Please spare my life…"
The rest of the gentry quickly knelt on the ground and expressed that they would immediately send someone to deliver the money.
Lin Feng threw the gun to Natasha." From now on, everything in Wenshui County belongs to me, Lin Feng. Since your actions have successfully angered me, I have changed my mind. I want 100%!”
100%? This was equivalent to all of his assets.
The gentry wanted to say something, but when they saw Lin Feng's gaze and Li Da's still bleeding corpse, they didn't dare to say anything.
Money was just a worldly possession. No matter how important it was, it was not as important as his life.
"Those who obey me will prosper, and those who resist me will die." "I'll give you two hours to send me 1,000 people who meet the recruitment requirements. If there's one less…"
Lin Feng pointed at Li Da's corpse on the ground."He will be your end!"
