Chapter 140: Reward
Third update, please look for pink.『≤,

"It's not just my family, but also the little bit of the hearts of the people of Wanjia Village." Wan Jiashu said to Shen sincerely.
If Mu Hong and others had not led their troops to protect them, Wanjia Village, which had no defense, would have been destroyed under the robbery of the Japanese pirates. Wan Jiashu had seen the tragic phenomenon after being robbed by the Japanese pirates, so he had no doubt about this.
Moreover, the Japanese pirates also made enemies with Wanjia Village. The Japanese pirates were cruel and vengeful.
"As long as everyone is fine, it is also their duty." Shen was very kind to Wan Jiashu. As for the generous gifts Wan Jiashu sent, she only said that she would make a decision when Mu Hong comes back.
"It's rare that you come to Ren'ancheng from afar and chat with Master Ji San, so you can stay here with peace of mind, and don't worry about the rest." Shen listened to Ji Xiaotang's words in advance, so he arranged for the little girl to clean up the house for Wan Jiashu.
Master Ji San took Wan Jiashu to settle first.
Mu Hong and his son returned from the garrison office in the evening. Mu Hong brought Qi Younian together.
When the family reunites, they will naturally be happy.
Ji Xiaotang asked about the battle with the Japanese pirates.
Mu Hong excitedly told Ji Xiaotang and others that this time, they had ambushed in Wanjia Village, and captured several Japanese pirates alive.∏∈, in addition, they also seized several Japanese pirates' ships and property.
As for the officers and soldiers of Ren'an Guard, except for a few injured people, none of them were killed.
This is almost unique in the encounter with the Japanese pirates. Speaking of which, of course, this is because of sufficient preparation and the ambush battle.
"I have already written the battle report and I am waiting to receive the military achievements." Mu Hong laughed. The military achievements are only one aspect, but more importantly, this battle was so comfortable.
"My grandfather and two uncles are about to be promoted!" Ji Xiaotang smiled.
"I'm fine." Mu Hong waved his hand. "You two uncles can get one."
Especially Mu Jiahao is still the general flag now, and this time he can be promoted to a hundred households with his military achievements.
"The greatest contribution to this victory is Ayou. It's not much for me to be promoted or not, so Ayou is a pity." Mu Hong said again.
Qi Younian looked very calm and did not seem to take the promotion to heart.
"This time I saved a village person, this is boundless merit." Shen said.
Ji Xiaotang thought to himself that if we talk about merit, this time we saved more than the life of a villager.
"More than one village," Mu Jiaying said, "I interrogated the captured prisoners. It turned out that this group of Japanese pirates had made a plan this time. Wanjia Village was just one of their targets. In addition, they also targeted several wealthy villages and towns. ()... They wanted to take revenge on the people in Wanjia Village and planned to kill all the villagers."
"Thanks to us when we went in time," Mu Jiahao said.
"By the way." Mu Hong suddenly thought of something and turned his head to ask Ji Xiaotang, "Xiaotang, tell my grandfather, what do the two people you saw on the mountain behind the Nail Nu Temple look like?... We asked specifically in Wanjia Village, and they all said that the people in the village and nearby have not come to Nail Nu Temple these days..."
Speaking of which, the source of all this was because Ji Xiaotang told them the news about the ronin that he accidentally heard.
Ji Xiaotang didn't see anyone at all. After hearing Mu Hong's question, he had to vaguely say that he didn't pay much attention to the appearance of the two people.
"This is strange." Mu Hong said.
Wanjia Village beat the ronin because it involved the reputation of an unmarried girl, and the people in the village did not spread it outside.
Moreover, when Mu Jiaying went to chase him, he didn't even catch up with his own figure. The two people seemed to be invisible and left without a trace.
Mu Hong felt strange and said it. However, Qi Younian just looked at Ji Xiaotang and said nothing.
"Anyway, it's a good thing. What are you doing?" Shen said, "In my opinion, this is the appearance of the snail girl! Through our Xiaotang, we will save the people of Wanjia Village."
When Shen said that the Snail Girl Empress appeared, Mu Hong was not a person who was confused about the details, so he stopped talking about anything.
"In two days, we have to go to the temple to worship again." Shen said devoutly.
"Maybe it's God's will." Qi Younian nodded.
Mu Hong and his son have always known that Qi Younian did not believe this. When he heard him speak like this at this time, he showed some strange expressions.
Qi Younian seemed to have not noticed the expressions of the Mu family father and son.
"First, the abbot's junior brother told us what we saw from the south, which made us alert. Next, Xiaotang heard that sentence again, and then we led our troops to Wanjia Village. Isn't this God's will?" Qi Younian continued.
"God's will, well, it's God's will."
Whether it is God's will or the snail girl's appearance, in short, no one asked Ji Xiaotang about those two people anymore.
Shen then talked about Wan Jiashu again.
Mu Hong naturally had no objection to Wan Jiashu's living in the Mu family. He also talked about the generous gifts given to Wan Jiashu on behalf of the villagers of Wanjia Village. Wan Jiashu prepared a few generous gifts, including Master Ji San and Ji Xiaotang, and the Mu family is one, and there is another one, which is for Qi Younian.
"After winning the battle, there will be rewards from the superiors." Mu Hong said, "These two days in Wanjia Village, the people of the Wan family were very enthusiastic. At that time, they wanted to give us generous gifts, but we refused to accept them. Wan Jiashu followed him, saying that he wanted to thank Ji San for saving his life."
Mu Hong and Qi Younian mean that they still don’t accept this gift.
"I'll just get my heart." Mu Hong laughed.
That night, Shen arranged a rich banquet, and everyone was drunk and stopped.
Because of the hard work for several days, everyone parted ways after the banquet.
When Ren Anwei reported the battle report, a reward was soon given. This reward was beyond everyone's expectations.
Mu Hong and Qi Younian were each promoted to one level, from deputy Qianhu to Qianhu. It turned out that Qianhu, who was originally Ren'anwei, was transferred to him. From then on, Ren'anwei was fully under the jurisdiction of Mu Hong and Qi Younian.
Because of his pre-war investigation of the enemy situation and his performance as heroes in the battle, Mu Jiaying was promoted to deputy Qianhu and took the seat that Mu Hong had previously seated. Mu Jiahao was promoted from the general flag to the hundred-household house as everyone expected.
In addition, each person also received many gold and silver rewards.
The soldiers under each person also have rewards based on the number of military achievements.
For a moment, not only Ren Ancheng was happy because of this victory, but also the whole Mu Mansion was even more happy.
Mu Hong did not expect that he could become the Thousand Houses of Ren'an's garrison. Although he was only one step away from the deputy Thousand Houses of the garrison, his power was very different.
"No need to say that boy Ayou, this place is just a dragon's shoal for him." Mu Hong said to Shen and Ji Xiaotang in private. However, this promotion was of great significance to him.
So for Ji Xiaotang.
