The first thousand four hundred and fifty-two chapters (6)
This time everyone felt a little strange. The two behind were surrendered ministers. Why did their status be the same as the two previous ministers? And even if the meritorious people were able to be enthroned, why were these two people not enthroned by the family territory?
With Zhao Hu's franchise, everyone realized that the general was not the original general, but a higher rank than the general. Except for the four great ministers, everyone else jumped within the three levels of the general, the general, and the chief of the flag.
The retainers who were born into bandits had no objection, and although the surrendered ministers were several levels lower than before, the stones he received were several times higher than before, and the monthly salary was also very high, so he was very happy.
Especially Nangong Bing, he did not expect that he, who was considered a third uncle's servant, also got a rank of the banner leader, which gave the family a 50 stone high and a monthly salary of ten cents out of thin air. Although the family now has 10,000 stones, his future head of the family doesn't have to care about just fifty stones at all, but no one would think that this stone high that can be passed down from generation to generation would be too high. Even if one stone or two stones is more, he would be undesirable.
As for the remaining local tyrants, they were a little disappointed. Not only did they not receive the reward, but the old stone height was reduced by half. But how could people not bow their heads when they were on the roof?
Moreover, they were all wealthy families with thousands of stones, and the main force was destroyed, and the biggest expense was lost. Even half of the stone was high could make them and the bannermen live a prosperous life, let alone have a considerable monthly salary. In addition, considering that resistance was to destroy the clan, they had to kowtow and claim it.
In order not to prevent the retainers below from coming forward to thank them, Mode turned to the corner and knelt down. He was still immersed in happiness. At this time, he was suddenly disturbed. He glared at the retainers with dissatisfaction and asked in a low voice: "What's the matter?"
His retainer quickly whispered: "Lord, the hall has been enthroned by local tyrants, why are we not enthroned?"
"Stupid, you are my retainers, of course you will not be crowned." Mod said indifferently.
"But lord, Nangong Bing also got fifty stones, and those leaders also got stones high." The retainer said anxiously.
"Hmm? What's going on?"
Mo De knew that those bandit leaders also learned to take their subordinates as their retainers like this. Why did their retainers have Shi Gao but their retainers have no?
Nangong Dun beside Mod heard the conversation, smiled bitterly, and interrupted, "Don't think about it anymore. Except for Nangong Bing, other retainers on my side have not been enthroned."
Nangong Dun would take the initiative to talk, mainly because he felt something was wrong and prepared to have a good relationship with Mode, otherwise he would not pay attention to this guy who was hostile to him.
Mo De obviously didn't expect Nangong Dun to talk to him. He was stunned for a moment before asking, "What does lord mean?"
"Didn't you find that only two of us have family territory? You are a bachelor, why should the lord specifically explain the family territory that you enthrone to your family?"
Seeing Mode shake his head, Nangong Dun couldn't help but emphasize his tone: "Don't you understand what the lord means? This is to support our retainers."
"It's normal for you to support your own retainers. Why do you feel a little wrong when you say this?" Mode's face was still a little confused.
"Oh, it turns out that you were just happy and didn't think about your lord's words carefully." Nangong Dun sighed. This guy is on an equal footing with him? God is so blind!
"But look at my Nangong family. Although my Nangong family has 10,000 stones, how many people are in the entire Nangong family? Four or five hundred people rely on that 10,000 stones to live, they are definitely not as good as you."
Both sides knew that the other party was crying for poverty because there were other resources in the territory, and it would not be so difficult. Otherwise, why would everyone pursue Shi Gao desperately? But crying for poverty is always better than praising wealth?
Hearing that Nangong Dun did not count his stone high, Mo Dezhe smiled and said, "Hehe, you are smart enough. Not only can you use the family's manpower and stone high, but you also have five hundred stone high. Just your personal stone high salary, you should be able to recruit 100 private soldiers, right?
"If the lord starts a war with the outside world, your hundred private soldiers will definitely be able to kill generals and seize the flag for you. Compared with other retainers who can only rely on their own efforts, it will definitely be in heaven and underground!"
When Mode said this, his heart moved and secretly decided that even if he was frugal, he would have to get hundreds of private soldiers, otherwise he would definitely fall behind Nangong Dun in the future!
Nangong Dun smiled without saying a word, and at this time, there were shocking cheers outside. It seemed that the soldiers outside knew that they could have Shi Gao's affairs. Now no tyrant of the family dared to commit a crime.
In fact, everyone knows that restricting private soldiers is a measure for Zhao Hu to prevent rebellion from his retainers, but no one will just say it.
This method is not very clever and can be used by other forces, as long as they are willing to divide most of their stones into high positions.
But looking at the entire Southeast Peninsula who is willing to do this, I'm afraid the only one who doesn't take Shi Gao seriously is, isn't it?
Of course, this enthronement has nothing to do with the militias of the Emperor's origin, and they don't know the importance of Shi Gao. Now they are guarding the border under the leadership of Yu'an.
It’s not that Zhao Hu favors one over another, mainly because the militia are all emperors and their families are in the empire, so they only come here to help, so Zhao Hu decided to give them only money and not to enfeoff Shi Gao.
The enthronement ended soon, and everyone was waiting for Zhao Hu to announce the resignation of the meeting so that he could personally see what the enthronement land was like.
However, Zhao Hu did not do what they wanted, but instead said: "My Qin family must not only be the city of Mingyue City, so he decided to appoint Nangong Dun as the city agent and government affairs, Mode as the public security inspection site, Feer as the commercial logistics, and Kaihai as the commander of the navy.
"In the future, I hope that all the retainers will keep their posts and obey the orders pursued by the city deputies."
Everyone was stunned. The lord gave all his power to the four ministers?
However, no one jumped out to remind Zhao Hu, because Zhao Hu still has all the army. Isn’t it often said that the army is in hand? Do I have it in the world? With the army, I am still afraid of rebellion?
Nangong Dun hurriedly took Mo De and others to thank him and receive the order. Nangong Dun knew that although this was a position as a city agent, he was a city lord with great power no matter what, and his long-term wish was realized!
